Polk county gave the straight. Democratic State Ticket the handsome majority of 1108—tlio largest over given at any elec tion. All of which is very Hignill- «ant. The Rome Georgian, which tvarnily espoused the cause of the defeated independent candidates in Floyd, has suspended its daily edition, and will appear hereafter only ns a weekly. CONSOLIDATED ELECTION RETURNS FOR POLK. Hon. Charles Adamson, repub lican nominee for Elector for the Seventh Congressional District, has published in this issmj of Till Standard tho address to the people which tho republican candidates for Electors have is sued. The Florida orange crop will be tho largest this year since tho big freeze of 1804. It' is esti mated that. fully 1,000,000 boxes will ho shipped, valued at $2 per box f. o. b. in Florida. This means a Christmas greeting to thousands of children nil over the country. Hon. Clark Howell, of Fulton, will lie President of tho next Georgia Senate, and Hon. John D. Little, of Muscogee, will bo Speaker of the House. Thoso ublo and popular gentlemen are loyal Democrats, and are among Georgia’s most, distinguished young men in public life. Hon. John W. Maddox, tho Seventh’s able Congressman, will be returned to Washington by the largest majority ho has over yet received. He is a useful member, and has looked well to the home interests of his constit uents. lie deserves a hearty, en dorsement at tho hands .of his district,—and will receivo it. If is noteworthy to hear on the streets expressions from Demo crats from every portion of Polk county that theyare (Irmly in favor of a whito Democratic pri mary hereafter for every county oftlce. “From Coroner to Gov ernor,” is the way good Demo crats are now insisting on future primary elections in this county. Gen. Mclntqsh Roll, Adjutant. General of Georgia, died Friday night, and funeral services were hold Sunday at Griffin attended l>y Gov. Candler and other state house officers. Gen. Kell was a distinguished naval hero of the Confederacy, and with Admiral Sommes made the, old “Ala bama” a veritable terror of the seas. Ho was appointed adjutant general by Gen. Gordon during Iiis incumbency as governor, and has served tho state faithfully and acceptably in that capacity aver since. Tin: Standard publishes this week tho consolidated election returns for Polk, which will be road and studied with much local interest. The discrepancy be tween tho vote of Governor Can dler anil the rest of the State House ticket, as shown by that of Secretary of State Piiil Cook is accounted for by the fact that the populists made no tight here for anything but the Governor ship, and not much of a tight for that. Georgia has never had a better or more popular Chief Ex ecutive' than Governor Candler, and ho received the largest ma jority given in Polk for a Demo cratic candidate for Governor in xuany years.
