THOMAS is LEADING
LANGFORD rs NEXT

Waycross, Sept. 12.-Judge w.
+. Thomas of Valdosta is leading
the congressional race in the
Eleventh district. 1t has been a
day of surprises. Returns at mid
night bring to light the biggest
surprise by placing w. c. Lang
ford, of Douglas, to the front as
a strong contender for the nomi-
nation. Coffee, his nome county,
will give him between twelve and
fourteen hundred.
Representative Walker is close
up in the race.
Berrlen county estimates a
plurality for Langford ranging
from 200 to 400. This unusually
large vote, according to reports,
compiled here and at Douglas,
make him second to Judge Thorn
as, and returns yet to be received
may change the result. 1t now
looks like a Thomas-Langford
hight, and a complete consolida-
ton OF every county will be re-
CURED to make known beyond a
doubt the winner.
Representative Walkers home
county, Pierce, gave him a nice
majority. He is reported TO have
carried Wayne and Charlton.
Mr.. Langford carried Clinch bv
a nice majority.
Ware gave Bowdcn a hand
some plurality. Glynn county
went for Thomas over Walker by
a big vote. Thomas is given
Brooks and Echols by incom-
plete returns, and Walker Charl-
ton. Many Of the outlying pre-
clncts will not be heard from until
morning, but are not expected to
change the results. Irwin went
Tor Thomas by 81, Echols by 81.
In LoWndes Thomas went to
Valdosta with a lead of 125 votes
Brooks is reported to be in the
Thomas column.

WEATHER REPORT FOR
GEORGIA

The past week was generally
dry and quite warm, except the
last day; in fact, several days
were decidedly hot in the south
ern portion of the state. The
weather was very favorable for
picking and ginning cotton, gath
ering corn, pulling fodder, hay
ing, and fall blowing for winter
cereals. Cotton is shedding
some, and the dry weather is
causing many young bolls to dry
up; the crop is opening fast and
the crop is poor Sweet potatoes
and fall gardens need rain. A
fair crop of pecans is indicated.
An exceptionally large yield of
hay was secured.
