BRISTOL TOLD TO
AID AMERICANS.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 25.-Rear
Admiral BristoPs activities in con-

confined strictly to affording relief,
primarily to native and naturalized
American citizens destitute as re-
suit of the fire, and secondarily to
nationals Of other countries who cam
not otherwise obtain aid. His in
structions from the state department
set forth these limitations plainly.

Interest and speculationeare rife
and one name seems to loom above
all others in this connection, that
being W. G. Vereen, chairman Of
the Democratic Executive committee
of the State of Georgia and resi-
dent of Moultrie.
He is most prominently mentioned
to take Mr.. Watson's place in the
upper house of congress and he Is
known as long and tried friend
of the governor, according to opin-
ions expressed to the Timcs-Recorder
this morning over long distance
phone from Atlanta.
The appointment will only hold,
however, until the November cleo
ton when hfs successor will have to

Another Political Battle.
The death Of Senator Watson,
therefore, throws the state into the
midst Of another gruelllng statewide
political battle.
There will have to be a Junior sem
ator chosen at the polls in November.
With the Walker party, claiming
kinship to the Watson hosts, it is
probable that they will put forth
successor for the late senator's toga,
On the other hand there is indica-
ton that Governor Hardwick and his
friends will enter actively into the
field in an effort to replace the sens
ator with one of their own group.

Mr.. Watson's loyalty to the prin-
>ciples of the Farmers Alliance plat'

congress, rather than adhering to
the name of Democrat, caused his
position to be severely denounced by
organized Democratic leaders and a

years the Populists Of the South
