The split in the ranks of the state
republican party is becoming more se¬
rious as the moment for the final crisis
approaches. The contesting factions
are now far apart on the question of
party organization and the indications
all point to a call for au early conven¬
tion for the purpose of electing a new
chairman. Mr. Walter Johnson, the
present chairman, remains obstinate
and refuses emphatically to issue tin;

The decision in the Flanagan case
has been indefinitely delayed and the
time when it will be decided is a mat¬
ter of conjecture. The attorneys have
placed the papers in the hands of
Judge Candler and he will take ample
time to come to a conclusion. Tho pa¬
pers are so numerous and long that it
will take much time for their perusal.
Flanagan was condemned to hang on
the 25th of August, but the motion for
the new trial was filed and has acted
as a supersedeas and stayed the execu¬
tion.

While the day was notaltogetherde

wa8 a remarkably quiet one. Tli e
e i ec tion resulted as follows: Against
prohibition, 1,724; for xirohiiiition,

precincts gave a slight majority to the
antis. The votes of about 400 negroes
were challenged by the prohibitionists,

election would not be changed.
