One of the remarkable surprises of the state campaign is the defeat of Peyton M. Hawes of Elbert by W. J. Speer of Fulton for state treasurer by a majority of 19,000 or more. The surprise is occasioned by the fact that the early returns,which were mostly pure estimates, seemed to give Sir. Hawes a handsome majority, esti mated at about 8,000. But when the official returns came in, Mr. Speer had a 19,000 majority. j RED HOT CONTESTS IN CONGRESSIONAL RACES. I ■ Athens.—The final returns from El | bert county gave William M.
