Goodwin is running well in the stretch and will |miI1 mole votes than has been antic Iputed. On the county ticket the rivalry for the office of county treasurer has re sulted In a hot campaign. Right ns- S lants fur the place are in the field. tibert L. Culberson, chairman of the county commissioners, Is spoken of ns the leader up to this time, but Macon C. Sharp, Peter F. -t’larke and Mayor Woodward are looked U|sin as stron rivals. It was expected that the rac would narrow down to a Held of three or four, hut everyone of the eight can didates has paid his entrance fee and ex fleets to face the barrier on Wed nesday. Thiee candidates for alderman from the First w ard,’ w hlrh Is In line of suc cession to furnish one of the city fath ers. have declared themselves.

REGISTRATION BEHIND THAT OF TWO YEARSAGO Registration from the country districts of Fulton county falls behind the registration of two years ago by over 100. The registration In the city wards has not been compiled, but It Is believed that It will also fall short of the figures In 1904, and that the total registration for the county will be less than that of 1901 by between 500 und 700«names. County Tax Collector Andy Stewart completed the compilation of the country registration by districts Friday afternoon. He Is now' busily at work on the city registration, and will complete this within a short time. The total registration for the county will hardly reach 11,000, according to estimates at the collector's office. The registration by districts as compured with that of 1904 Is as fol lows; , 1904. 1908.

There are five candidates for the short congressional term and two for the long term, with the results uncertain. A vote of 80 per cent Is as much as Is expected. The total white registration for Chatham county for the primary on August 22 Is 0,955. DEPENDS ON WEATHER IN MURRAY COUNTY. Spt-clnl tn The Georgian. Spring Place,* Ga., Aug. 18.—This county Is almost all a farming county and some of the voting precincts are wide apart, so that If the weather la favorable for work a full vote will not bo polled. The total registration of this, Mur ray, county Is 1,744. MANY FAILTO REGISTER FOR GENERAL PRIMARY On next Wednesday the voters of Georgia will. In a general primary, select delegates to the coming state Democratic convention for the selec tion of a candidate for governor. Tho campaign opened 14 months ago when the candidates took the stump to appeal fa the voters for support and has grown in Interest and bitterness since. Reports of registration from the different parts of the state Indicate that only about SO j»er cent of the atrength of the party will be expressed ut the polls, if the weather Is favorable. The registration has fallen short from 5 per cent to 10 per cent, and while feeling has been at white heat In some sections of the state, espe cially In the larger <clties, In many of the tural districts much apathy seems to be manifested from reports. There seems to be greater Interest In the ientral and southwestern portions of the state than In the extreme south ern and eastern portions. It seems that the central portion has been the chief batleground and there the candidates centered their contest for su premacy. gOOOOOOOOOOOC frOOOOOOOOOCHK O BERNER MAY ACCEPT O O CHALLENGE TO DEBATE O O WITH MR8.

The speech was a clean anti clear-cut argument, devoid of mud- slinging. and was well received, though the speaker's voice was not strong and the frequent cheering and Interruptions by the crowd made It extremely dlffl- ult for Mr. Howell to be heard. Probably half of the audience failed to catch his words, the address being delivered In the open air from a plat form In front of the court house. One of the largest barbecue dinners ever served In this section whs par taken of at the close of the speech. HOWELL AND~8m7tH FIGHTING FOR BIBB. Spools! to The Geofglnn.

A. organisation, which organisation carried the city O O aOOOOOOOOQO00003O0OOOO00OC election for Judge W. M. Dunbar by a very large majority. It Is said that this organisation has given Its support to Mr. Smith. He had hut little new to ( Inject Into the campaign and his ad- j dress was the same as the one he has been delivering to the voters of the state In ingny sections. Several times Mr. Smith referred to local politicians and to their standing for or against him. This being the homo of Judge R. H. Galloway he had to give out a slight rap for this dis tinguished Georgian, but It was not re ceived with much enthusiasm. Mr. Smith explained Ills views on the railroad question, and denounced the so-called "political lings" In the state of Georgia, and the railroad domina tion. He grew very eloquent at times ami he wus loudly cheered. THE RACE IS BETWEEN SMITH AND HOWELL.
