"If merchants in Mongomery can ship grocer ies by the car load to Columbus, ami then dis tribute them along the line of the Columbus and Western road, why cannot the merchants of Co lumbus do the same thing*/ Or better still, why cannot Columbus control all the territory on the Columbus and Western, when fVcights are only two cents a hundred higher to Columbus than to Montgomery?” This was the question put to us the other day by o large consumer, who had just asked one of our large grocery establishments tor prices on 2500 pounds of bacon, and was informed that he did not have it to spare. A firm in Montgomery, so we are authoritatively informed, has very recent ly shipped five ear loads of flour to Columbus, and then re-shipped it up the road toward Good- water. That Columbus has largely the advan tage in freight rates, none who are informed will question, and it is getting time that all such transactions as this should be things of the past.

Muscogee county voted by primary election polls opened at 8 a. m. and the Gordon men got the bulge at the start and kept it pretty well to the close. Before 12 o’clock the friends of Major Bacon conceded that Gordon would carry the city as well as the country precincts. Notwith standing this, the friends of both candidates con tinued to work zealously until late in the after- of accomplishing good for the city, and if j noon. At the mass meeting the hour for closing the polls in the city was fixed at T p. m., but as only a scattering vote was being polled late in the afternoon, it was agreed by the friends of both parties that they should close, at 6 o’clock. The bulk of the voting was done before dinner. While there was great interest manifested on both sides, there was a good feeling prevailing, and the election passed off quietly. The total vote polled in the city was 996, of which Gordon received 567, Bacon 128 and Jones 1; Gor- chants should take advantage of it. THK8K ARB NOT IDLE WORDS, but solemn, sober facts.
