I ui , hi!i,,v iatst a Field Ihiy for General fionlun - | II, raptiireH sixteen of tin* I'penty N ut s s ( . Icpfi'il—How tin* Itesiilt roots I p—Filin Lead ing Clements for Comrress, Tuesday wus considered the real opening day ! ..f the gubernatorial fight. The fact that si vend uaintieH had decided upon tii it day foy the selec- <.f delegates gave it the signilicayce. Yesterday morning the Rnquikisr-Sux gave the information that out of twenty votes Genera. ( 1))ri lon secured sixteen to Major Bacon’s four. The additional information received since then indicates thut General Gordon scored advantages other counties that are liable to pan out well in the convention. In referring to the actuui vote, die Constitution says: ••The result shows that they got 1(5 votes to bacon 's 1. or just four to one. In most of the roiinties Gordon’s majority was overwhelming. In Lumpkin Hon. W. P. Price, who ran is a Bu cui delegate, was beaten live to one. In Polk ••the majority was so overwhelming that the vote v.as not counted.” In Murray it was over live to line. In Forsyth, which was counted absolutely ... a* i,.r Bacon until the vote was polled, Gordon's vote was two to one. In Carroll it was overwhelm- jug. in Gordon he had a hundred majority. In Dooley, which his most sanguine friends set down as “impossible,” he had a small majority, lie carried seven counties while Bacon carried two." DOOLY. The result of the elections in the various coun ties selecting delegates bear out the truth of this statement. The closest shave for tJordon was in Booty county, where the vote stood Gordon 127 and Bacon 121. Dooly county also endorsed Crisp for congress. GORDON. In (Jordon county Gordon received 210 and Bacon 119. The congressional race was also hot ly contested in Gordon and resulted in 202 votes for Fain and 101 for Clements, the present incum bent. CARROLL. Gordon delegates were overwhelmingly elected in a mass meeting in Carroll county. The Gor don men claim that it was fair and square, but the Bacon men entertain a very different opin ion. They say that “every Gordon man in the county was notified to be present by the Gordon club, ostensibly to prevent Bacon men from cap turing the court house, the Gordon leaders mean while assuring Bacon’s fYiends that they wanted primaries. In the meeting the Gordon men un expectedly demanded an election of delegates at once. The Bacon men, reminding them of their promise, begged for a primary but were insolent ly refused, when a farce of an election took place.” FORSYTH. There was considerable enthusiasm in Forsyth county, and resulted in the choice of Gordon del egates by a vote of iy3 for Gordon against 108 foi Bacon. POLK. In Polk county Gordon delegates were elected. The Jriends of Gordon say : “The Gordon dele gates were elected by such an overwhelming ma jority that the vote was not counted.” Bacon’s friends say: “Farmers were so busy they could not attend the mass meeting. This district is four to one for Bacon,and the county would have been overwhelmingly for Bacon if the people had been given a chance. The court house clique has certainly snatched this county from Bacon.” MURRAY. Murray county moved up very nicely for Gor don, giving him 415 votes and Bacon 91. Fain captured the congressional delegates, receiving 273 votes and Clements 250. ‘.CATOOSA. Bacon carried the day in Catoosa county by a vote of .215 against 182 for Gordon. Fain also captured the congressional delegation, receiving 225 votes to 112 for Clements. COLUMBIA. Columbia county selected Bacon delegates and instructed them to vote for Bacon in the conven tion. THE RESULT. So far the result of the counties that have i hoKeii delegates may be summarized as follows: Gordon 20, Bacon 22, Jones 8, Carlton 2. PROGRAMME FOR THE FUTURE. The democratic executive committee of Bartow county met Tuesday and called a mass meeting lor July 7th to select delegates to the congression al and gubernatorial conventions. At a mass meeting, held at Greensboro, it was decided to hold an election for delegates to the gubernatorial convention in Greene county on •Saturday, June 12th. A primary election will be held in each militia district in Harris county on the fourth Saturday in June, when voters will vote direct for the can didate they prefer for governor. I nder a call for a “citizens’ meeting” a number of persons met at Jasper on Tuesday and ap pointed delegates favorable to Major Bacon. Af terwards another meeting was held, which de clared that the first was not a democratic meet ing and resolved to hold a meeting of the demo cratic party of Pickens county on .Saturday, the 3d of July, to nominate delegates. The democratic executive committee has fixed •Saturday, July 17, for holding a primary election in every militia district of Cherokee, to determine 1 he choice of the county both lor governor and congressman. At the mass meeting hold in Sparta a primary election for delegates from Hancock to the gu bernatorial convention was ordered for June 18. The executive committee of Sumter county has ordered u primary election vo take place on the 12th instant. A primary election was called in Haralson county for July 3 as a compromise measure. A mass meeting will be held in Hart county to elect delegates on the 15th of July. It is claimed that t’ne (Jordon men opposed a primary election. The executive committee of Cobb county has called a primaiy election for the 19th of June. IJIK LKK COT NT Y CONVKMTOX. Crayton Nominated for Piolmlr Judge and Undue lor Clerk—Bill lot 1 i ntr for Representative. •Special to the Enquirer-Sun. Opelika, Ala., June 2. -The democratic con vention did not assemble until 2 p. m., owing tu the train from Montgomery being delayed. The convention was organized by electing Jsac Prince cliarman, and Solon Griggs, A. (). Warren and C. i\ Hodge secretaries. The com mittee on permanent orgenization recommended the adoption ofthc two-thirds rule, but the con vention decided to adopt the majority rule. It was decidid to nominate first probate judge, then clerk ofc.reuit court, then representatives to the legislature, and afterwards appoint dele gates to the gu /ematonal convention. Messrs. Holland, Philips, Frazer and Crayton were put in nomination, and it was resolved to drop the lowest mune alter the second ballot. 3 he convention was composed of sixty-five delegates. Gn the first >allot Holland received 28 1 , votes, Frazer 18Ciayton 12‘r,, and Philips 9. Philip- "as dropped »n the fifth ballot, and Frazer on the sixth. On the seventh ballot Crayton received 32', votes and Holland 32' 4 , and Crayton was de clared nominated. Most of Frazer’s vote-, after his name was dropped, went to Crayton, and most of Philips’ votes to Holland. # There appears to be much dissatisfaction among the delegates at the result. It is claimed that ten Holland men bolted, but I cannot vouch for the truth ol the assertion. organs drop Sensible Aih in*.

The contract wasdated April 12, 1881. On May 12 it was extended for thirty days, it being stated that “the option for the sale and purchase of our stock in stud railroad” was extended. No sale having been completed to Logan, and the stock holders still desiring to sell, they gave to one Dexter the follow ing agreement: “Wo, the undersigned stockholders in the Columbus and Rome railroad company, do hereby extend the option on sale .of Columbus and Rome railroad heretofore grant ed to Louis F.

Dublin and Western road : It is still much doubted here whether the Savannah, Dublin and Western will be | built, and investors are getting \yry euu- ! tious. There are many who believe that I new road is projected by the Standard Oil - company for the purpose of depressing Central railroad stock and scooping up that I splendid system. Some of the capitalists interested* in the Savannah, Dublin and Western project arc known to be connect ed with the Standard Oil company, which some three months ago scooped up one of tlie best new lines iu Florida. There has been a good deal of mystery about the company. President 1 Linderman stated on his re turn from England that he hail arranged to get money to build the line in London. It turns out that no definite arrangement was consummated by him at that time, lie went to England ostensibly to purchase 1 steel rails, but came back without having I done so, saying that lie* had discovered that 1 he could make better arrangements in Pennsylvania, owing to the tariff. If lie had read the ironmakers’ reports he would I have known that before he sailed. I “A gentleman well known in railroad matters and thoroughly acquainted with the resources of the country, says the Sa vannah, Dublin and Western line could not | pay, even if it could be built and ecpiipped | at fifteen thousand dollars per mile, as is estimated by Mr. Linderman.’’ MR. BESS’ SILENCE ABOUT IT. Mr. A. Hess, the representative of the ' English capitalists whom President Lit.- | Herman hopes to interest in the Savannah, Dublin and Western Short Line railroad ' company, will make his report to the syn- j die ate this week. Mr. Jloss came over from England a little more than a month j ago and during the past fortnight he has ! been looking into the line. He spent some days at the Savannah end of the line mak ing inquiries about the resources of the j country along the route sur veyed. Then he went up through the state, stopping at Macon and other points. lie has been back in Savannah two or three days and has about concluded his investigation. Mr. Hess is an extremely affable gentlemen, and to all things appertaining to the new road is a brilliant listener, When it comes to tiie road perfectly silent. He remarked to a News reporter at tin* Screven house that he has been asked for j an expression a good many times. Mr. ' Hess does not give the slightest inti mation of what his report will be, ! whether favorable or unfavorable. He has been busy gathering all the informa tion bearing upon the matter that he could , possibly g»*t hold of. The re port will cover the sources of middle Georgia’s wealth and the resources of the country from which I the road would obtain its revenues. It will also have something to say about the effect ! ofthe railroad commission on the earnings of railroads in Georgia. Mr. 11 css has made a careful study of the subject and his re port probably will determine whether the bonds of the road will be taken by the | English capitalists. GRADING THE COVINGTON. I Colonel B. W. FroheJ, chief engineer of | the Covingtin and Macon railroad, arrived ' in Atlanta from Covington Monday after- I noon. A Constitution reporter met him : and inquired for information concerning ! his line. i “The grading is completed nearly to j Covington,” Colonel Probel said, “and I expect to reach that place in the next few | days. The work has been well done, com paring favorably with that on any other road in the south. Ferguson & Co., the contractors, arc experienced in such work and have put forth their very best efforts.” “When will the track laying begin '?” “I expect to let the contract for that work very soon, probably within ten days. A large portion ofthe rails are at Macon, and all facilities for laying them are also there.” “When will the cars begin to run?” “It will now be but a few weeks before they will be put on tlie road. The people along tiie line arc very anxious to hear the whistle of the locomotive and 1 am very anxious to gratify them.” THE CENTRAL RAILROAD. The Central railroad has declared the usual semi-annual dividend of two per cent. Central stock is quoted at sixty-nine a decline of eleven cents within about forty days. The recent depression in Cen tral stock represents a shrinkage of about i'S00,0()0. It 1- believed that the Standard Oil people could afford to spend a million or two dollars on the Savannah and Dub lin and then practically abandon it, if it would enable t lieni t<> <>btain control of the Central at a depreciation of three or four millions.
