The withdrawal of Mr.

clear field, Other candidates
probably soon enter the field, in
meantime. Mr. Candler,
strong, is rapidlrgaining ground.
Farming in Georgia ca' i be
to pay handsomely and this fact
been demonstrated conclusively by
tlie fiw energetic and intelligent
farmers in all sections of the State,
who have not confined themselves t<
cultivating cotton to the exclu

In view of corrupt methods adopt

There is a strong probability that
