BIG MEETING TUESDAY
Committee Will Make Re.
port On Location Of
Grounds Tuesday.

Interest in the idea of holding a
first class County fair in Cobb this
summer is growing fast and it is be
lieved that the affair will meet with
great success. There was an enthus-
iastic meeting of the parties who
are the most active in trying to
organize the fair in the new quar-
tiers of the Marietta Chamber of Com
merce on Tuesday afternoon and all
who were present were in high favor
of holding a fair next fall.
Col. John p Cheney acted as chair
man of the meeting and was author
lied to appoint a committee of five
men to look out for a suitable site
for grounds and take options if nee
essary on any land that might be
deemed suitable for location for
the fair.
1t seemed to be concensus of opin-
ion that the location should be on
the street car line but as near to
Marietta as possible in order that
as many people as possible might
be able to attend.
Among those present were Col. j.
p. Cheney, Mayor f. p. Dobbs, Mr. J.
j. Black, Mr.. Loring Brown, Mr.. J.
Gid Morris, Mr.. j. e. Creel, Mr. A.
S. Potter, Mr.. w. j. Frey, Mr. G.. G..

Inc indications are that at least
/ half a dozen candidates for Governor
will be in the race. About a dozen
have been prominently mentioned so
far.
Colonel j. Randolph Anderson, of
Savannah. seems to be the most
thoroughly in earnest so far and as
he has a summer home in Marietta
local interest attaches to his can
didacy. He is President of the Sen
ate and will become Governor if
Governor Slaton resigns. 1t is prob
able that Hon. A. A. Lawrence, an
other old Cobb county citizen, will
succeed Colonel Anderson as Sena-
tor from the Savannah district.
DR.. L. G. Hardman, of Commerce,
has announced for Governor. Hon.
w. H. Burwell, of Sparta, speaker of
the House, will likely enter the
race.
Among the others who have the
matter under consideration are:
Judge w. E. Thomas, of Valdosta,
Judge A. w. Fite, of Gainesville,
| Hon. w. j. Harris, of Cedartown,
Director of the Census, Hon. N. E.
Harris, of Bib, Hon. ]. R. Smith,
of Atlanta and Hon. Jesse Mercer, of
Fitzgerald.
Railroad Commissioner Murphey
Gambler has considered entering the
race but has abandoned the idea for
the present.
There is a general disposition to
let the Gevernorship go to a South
Georgia man if that section can unite
on candidate.

the highest judicial tribunal of this

the court will be. considering their
previous action, is problematical
They may declare the act uncOnsti-
tutional or that it is ambiguous and
not the intent OF the Legislature, Or
that certain sections are invalid, and
hold that the last section, which pro-
VIdes for the payment of the judicial
salaries. is plainly the intent of the
act and means that but one Judge IS
to be elected. as the means for the
payment of but one salary is pro-
vided.
"The act of some incompetent en-
rolling clerk may mean that the
counties. looking for relief from the
payment of large salaries and dis
continuance of certain judgeshipS
and creating new districts to faClli-
tate litigation, will have to be salts
fed with the old law if the Supreme
court does not consider the intent If

only remedy is by declaring the pres
