Tho state fair opens at Macon to day under most favoroblo auspices. It Is thought that tae attendance will be large. It seems that Sam Jones’ son-in-law has been behaving very badly.

New York stato Is the storm conter for the clos- lnj? wook of the presidential cam paign. Both sides claim the* state but tho democrats seem to haro tho lu- stdo track. * It Is generally supposed that no candidate can be elected on the Na tional ticket unless he carries' New York State. It Is possible for this not to hold good this year. If the Dem ocratic managers' estimate of Bryan’a strength In tho West holds good. Mr. Bryan very pertinently asks why Is It the Republicans are so an xious to raise a million dollars be tween now and tho election? Is there any way la which no largo amount of monoy could ho legitimately expend ed?—Athens Banner. 4* The Democratic party has not been so well united for a presidential elec tion In years. Tlio Republican party has not been so badly split up for a presidential election In years.

Bernhardt’s son Mau rice Bernhardt, of a dispatch from hu mother, dated Ninies, and saying that she was In excellent health. we have alyways with us. Everybody and everything seems to be prognosticating a cold winter. Bryan must carry New York to win and It now looks as If he would do It. Every man In Georgia who does not vote for Bryan and Kern are virtually voting for Taft and Sherman. This Is the last week of the pres! dentlal campaign and we suppose It will be a sort of a whirlwind week. The Atlanta Georgian has discover ed a Pennsylvania boy 19 years old who never heard of heaven.—Ex. Give him a ticket to Waycross and we’ll carry him to Saints Rest farm, The night riders of Tennessee and Kentucky seem to bare about reached the revolution stage.

Nashville American: “The Demo crats have no, money to buy the “Pres- Mency". In the Sputh, except in spots, they can’t buy beer—what will they do with their money? Many of us who have given our hearts to the Bryan cause are not able to givo ten cents In money. 4* Samuel Taylor stole a bucket of coal In Atlantic City the other day, because till wife was sick and cold and he hadn't a nickel to buy the needed fuel. The Pennsylvania Railroad owner of the coal prosecuted him. There wgt c cloud of witnesses, and he was con victed and sent to jail for five days. It Is a heinous sin to steal, wherefore Taylor’s sick wife had to be deprived of hla care for five days to satisfy the demands of justice. Reports from tho doubtful States, and especially from those of the Cen tral West, are to the general purport that, while the candidacy of Bryan and Kern Is undoubtedly popular with the laboring men. tho majority of the farmers are, as usual, Joined to their Republican Idols. 4- \ woman writer says there are only 11 Jokes In this country, but, objects Me Atlanta - Constitution, when we think of the youth of the country, there Is hope It may yet roach round dozen.—We must remember, however, that most of our people pot- keen sense of the rediculous and are ready to catch on to some thing good every day In the week. f The next democratic primary should be a democratic primary—a primary of democrats and democrats only.— Darien Gazette.

BRANTLEY URGES DEMOCRATS TO VOTE •HOWS THE NECE88ITY FOR ALL TO TURN OUT. Brunswick, Ga., Oct. 20, 1908. Editors Herald: I write to Impress upon the Demo crats the Importance of getting out a full Democratic vote at the election on November 3rd next, which Is now only one week off. I can not too strongly state the sit uation. Under our Georgia law the suc cessful candidates for Electors roust receive a majority of all the votes that are cast. In our recent state election a “plurality of votes” only was necessary. Should the Democratic Electors fall to receive a majority of all the votes cast, the Legislature would have to be convened In extraordinary session to select the Electors. This would be enormously expensive to the State, and, In addition to this expense, some question has been suggested as to the legality of such extra session for this purpose. Whether or not there la anything in this suggestion, we can avoid Its even being raised by giving our ticket a majority of the votes or .U t! " State election thero !: ’,090 votes polled. The Re publics! l.tivo constantly voted here tofore from 30,000 to 33,000 votes in T‘j evidential election?. The/ claiming 33,000 votes In Pre.idectlal elections. They are claiming 50,000 votes this year, and are well organiz ed. Mr. Watson has confined his presi dential campaign to the State of Geor gia. and his followers claim that hp will poll 50,000 votes. We have m way of estimating the number of votes that he will receive but we must as- sumo that the number wll be consldet* able; The Independent Party will no doubt get some votes. . You can readily see from this sta- tment that, unless the Democrats turn out better in the November elec tion than they did in the State oleo ticn this month, THE DEMOCRATIC ELECTORS WILL NOT RECEIVE A MAJORITY OF THE VOTES CAST. The seriousness of the situation Is mealed by this statement of tho facts There Is, of course not the slightest danger If the DEMOCRATS THE POLLS. Thore are enough Dem ocrat* In the State to give our elect- ticket in overwhelming majority. !m;i>rtar.t pels? 13, TO HAVE THEM TO VOTE — n-rrr.! !• to 3 ycu, -a a member of tho Demo- organization, Jo actively Interest renr elf in having THB FULL DEMO CRATIC VOTE POLLED IN YOUR COUNTY. Georgia and the South hare suffered too much from Republican rule to torso an opportunity to protest against P„ and, Ij possible, overthrow It. Tho only Issue In the campaign Is, whether or not the Republican shall be con tinued In power. The country Is ripe for a change, and the prospects for Democratic sucoss are brighter than they have been in many yean. Georgia can not afford to lag behind in the protest against extravagance, misrule and Injustice that Is now sweeping the country. — • W. G. Brantley. THE TBRICE-A-WEEM WORLD.
