Hardly any body refused to 'go Into It. Thera Is erery reason to believe thst the Chautauqua la going to gire'Valdosta a week of the best en tertainment that this city could have and a claaa of entertainment that will appeal to the best taste and to the highest Intelligence.

WOOD Cf SONS, Seedsmen, - Rlchaeod, Va. . Politics In Lowndes county have taken on a good deal more life dur ing the paat few dayB, due very largely to the fact that the retire ment of Congressman Brantley from th e congressional race opens a way for moro candidates for that place. It seems to he tery certain that Valdosta will have one or two can didates in the race for congress, The friends of Col. J. R. Walker urging him to run and the friends of Judge Oscar Smith are also urging him Into tho race. Col Walker formerly lived In the east ern part of the district and has many friends thoro who are stand ing solidly behind him. Judge Smith has lived lu the northern-part of the district and has revived many lottera and other messages from his friends up that way asking him to get Into the race. Judge I’urker. of the Waycross circuit, wan in Valdosta yesterday and It Is said that he notlflcd his friends here that he oxpecta to make a hot light for every Inch of ground In the district. Ho Is now In Echols county where he Is looking after his fences. He states that ho expects to light for Brooks county, and Clinch county, though h» concedes Lown- dos county to the Valdosta candi date. Col. Walker and Judge Smith have many flattering offers of sup- purt from counties In nil parts of the district, and tt 1» very certain that when tho race opens In earn est, If both of these Valdostans re main In- the race,’ there will bo aomethtng doing all along the line.. In county politics there Is con- •lderabi# activity and It lx very probable that things will gat livelier until utter th, primary Is held... It le -boUeved tbgrWpTSffiitr tlvo Committee will agree for thv county primary to bo bold on May 1,' which Is the day chosen by tho itnata Executive Committee. Judge W. H.

It was said yesterday that many Mr. B. O. l.aetlnger's friends were urging him to run for sheriff, against Sherli; Gornlo. but It Is not believed that Mr. Lnstlnger will got In the race, as he Is one of Mr. Gornto's friends and ho stated that he would not r\i n for any office this year. Mr Willis Ieng, the connty treasurer! is hnvlng opposition this year for the first time In a Iona time. Mr. Ansel Knight, s good oltlien of the Hahlra dlslrlet. Is a candidate tor county treasurer. The rae. for representative from Lowndes eonnty has attracted a good deal of attention, but no candidates have announced »» T»t It Is not known whether Messrs C. R. Ashley and W. L. Converse will offer for re-election or not. The friends of Col. W. 8. West are anxious for him to get In the race, though his trip to Furore may prevent. Mr O. K. Jones, Mr. J. E. Webb. Mr. H. Y. Tillman and several other good eltlxens of I-ownde* eonnty have hern urged to run" for the office From now until the day of the primary It Is probshle that the cam paign wilt bo llTely.

It Is expected that the Associa tion will be composed .of about 160 Valdosta eltlxens. About 70 had already signed tbs list this morning, and none were refusing to sign. • WHERE DOCTORS FAILED TO HELP Lydia E.

Mr. Taft lost Colorado formation regarding this work, same nnd Nebraska In 1908, Atlanta, March 13.—Mrs. OpTe Grace Is complaining bitterly that Atlanta lawyers and the general public are trying her case on the street corners and in newspaper col umns, and are condemning her out of court. As a matter of fact, every news paper In Atlanta has printed not only facts and speculations on the case, but elaborate arguments, often quoted from attorneys, designed to prove that she Is either guilty or in nocent as the case may be. The detectives say they know sho is guilty, but there Is nothing but ciicumstantlal evidence to base the charge on. Attorney Reuben Ar nold haa made the positive state ment that If Grace dies he will see Mrs. Grace convicted. Attorneys Moore & Branch, rep resenting Mrs. Grace, and o 4 lv-rs who sympathize with her, are quo ted In equally elaborate arguments to prove that she Is innocent. Women discuss It at their after noon teas. Newsboys fight about it In the street. If she ever does come to trial, how on earth the judge will be abl* to find a Jury In Atlanta of twelvo men who have not formed any defi nite previous opinion on the “guilt or Innooence of the prisoner at the bar,” Is a thing that will prove most difficult. It would be, perhaps, unfair to 6ay that the whole Atlanta public Is prejudiced one way or the other, but it la certainly true that practi cally the whole public has formed Its opinion one way or the other, other crime that ever happened Relief from Rheumatism Try Sloan’s Liniment for your rheu matism— don’t rub — just lay it‘©n lightly.
