THE AMERICUS WEEKLY TIMES-RECORDER. THURSDAY. JUNE 9. 1910.
CAMPAIGN IS GOING TO
START Will! A VIM
Cov. Brown As a Leader
oF Host.
(Special to TImes-Recorder.)
Atlanta, June 6.—Now that the
State Executive Committee has met
and gone home, ti.'e state campaign
will begin to shape up. And the shape-
up so Tar looke like a two-candidate
fight between Hon. H. H. Perry of
Hail and Gev. Brown, pitched squarely
upon the Issues and principles of the
■campaign ot 1906, supplemented of
'course, by that of 1908.
There may be one or two others who
will think they are running for a
while. This does not refer to Judge
It. U. Russell of the State Court of
. Appeals, from whom the latest news is
that lie probably wRI not run.
But there was Edward H. Walker,
lo-mcr mayor of College Park, who
announced for Governor a short time
ago, but has not been heard from
aince his announcement.
Then there was Hon. L. L. Jlidd
.brooks of Newton, who announced all
right, but whose friends say will
^hardly push his claim.
And now comes J. W. Brice, an At
lanta merchant, who says ho is in the
race on tho local option platform.
That was supposed to have been
Judge Russell’s thunder, but he did
•aot see fit to hurl the bolt.
The rules adopted by the committee
call the state primary for August 23,
though August IV was the first date
considered. ’ But it was decided that
the latter date was tbo soon after the
adjournment of the General Assembly.
Tin- primary covers ail state offices,
including Superior Court judges, so-
Hcito.s general, congressmen and
-others, it is to he a "white" primary,
the rules specifying ai follows:
“All white electors, who Save duly
jregisti-: ed according to law, Irrespec
tive of p.ist political adulations, and
who Intend In good faith to abide the
result of the party primary and sup
port the nominations thereby, are
hereby d-dared qualified, and are In
vited o participate in said primary
-election."

London, June 6.—Mr. Roosevelt and
tils wife and Kermit Roosevelt made
two visits to St. George’s, Hanover

■which they s'gned on the occasion of
their marriage 23 years ago.
Mr. and Mrs. Roosevelt had bean

-Minister to Sweeden, who formerly
Kvos a diplomatic secretary at Wash

witne-'Ses of the marriage ceremony

Thu v altors were received by Rev.
Prebendary Anderson, the rector, and

PEACIi EEASI FOR
THE GEORGIA EDITORS
A Feature That Would Be
Unique and Enjoyable.
The suggestion has been made, ami
it appears a good one, that instead
of serving light refreshments to the
editors of the Georgia Weekly Press
Association on the afternoon of tho
auto tour of the county, that there
be provided a Sumter county peach
feast that will Introduce the editors
to the Georgia Elbertas in their larg
est, ripest and most luscious form.
The plan proposed is to arrange at
one of the orchards for a superabun
dance of the finest fruit that can be
had. Eong tables will be placed In
some shady spot on the farm and load
ed down with the fruit. Knives will
be on hand and the visitors will be in
vited to feast to their hearts' content,
for once to realize what It means to
have all the peaches one desires.
Water and towels could be conven,
iently at hand for ablution and the
feast could be made ain hour of gen
uine social enjoyment as well as of
unqualified enjoyment for the palate.
For those who do not care for peaches
—and few and far between they arc—
an abundance of Sumter's superb wa
ter melons could bo provided.
The Idea Is a good one—much bettor
than punch and sandwiches £t the
Country Club. It provides something
both original and enjoyable.

gentleman's identity with that of the
American President in later years. AH
that struck me at the time was the
oddity of au American ranchman com
ing to get married at St. George's. It
was the only entry a ranchman over
' had at St. George's.
Mr. Maisey showed his private diary
io Mrs. Roosevelt, with entries prov
ing there had been some trouble
about her wedding necessitating more
than one preliminary visit to the Pre
bendary. She also saw the entry of
the weding of George Eliot with J- W.
Cross, May 6, 1888, and the reaord ot
the marr age ot Benjamin Disraeli,
the future Lord Beaconsfield, with
Sirs. Lewis in 1839.

London, June 6.—King George, who
at the time of hts father’s death held
ranks In the British army and navy In
ferior to several of his subjecis and
to the Kaiser, Czar and Emperor
Francis Joseph, has assumed the

service, making himself a Field Mar

by King Edward for Queen Alexandra,
King George has created Queen Mary

and the Queen Mother are the only
women belonging to the order.
