"Mr. Ilardwick asserts that

voters were also against Ilardwick.
He says the majority of voters have

the people have shown they do want
Hardwick?
"Before the election Hardwick and

to beat the governor. Now, since
they have denied this, by every rule
of fair dealing both are now estop

was such a combination and that they
received together more votes than
Slaton and therefore the latter should
be defeated.

Butte, Mont, Aug. 27.—More than
1,000 insurgent miners last nigh'

A mysterious killing occurred late
yesterday in the headquarters of tho
insurgent miners. Trouble is fear

DO EXGDSE FOR
HIGH PRICES REDE
Atlanta, Aug. 27.—United States
District Attorney Hooper Alexander
announced today that ho had com
pleted his investigation made by or
der of tho President and the Attorney
General Into the causes of high prices
for food supplies. Dealers who re
plied to Mr. Alexander's inquiries
stated that as a ruio hgh prices at
this time were inexcusable with the
possible exception of sugar, due to
the fact that Germany supplies the
refineries of this country with the
larger portion of the raw product.
The dealers dcclaro that the high
prices of other food products are duo
to speculation at the source of sup
plies. Some of the dealers seem to
think thut prices will go no higher,
while others aro of the opinion that
there will be a still further increase.
Mr. Alexander was inclined to tho
opinion that inasmuch as shipping
conditions are inproving right along
trade conditions and food prices gen
erally will soon get back to normal.
