' Our stock of neckwear? If you
haven'tit’s an oversight to be remedied
1' at once. You can’t mention anything
correct in style which is not embraced
in our assortment, and when you have

thrown together, as it were, by a freak
of chance, 'The best chance is the one

Terrell’s Registered Voters Number
2069. Negroes Will Help
Swell the Democratic
Majority.
The number of voters in Terrell
county who are qualified to participate
in the state and county election today
is 2,069—1192 whites and 877 negroes,
The registrars completed a revision of
the list Monday, after nearly two
weeks of hard work. When the lisg
was turned over to the registrars by
Tax Collector Laing it contained the
names of 1,200 whites and 958 negroes,
a total of 2,158. By this it will be
‘seen that only 89 names have been
stricken from the list. During the sit
ting of the registrars a great many
who had registered illegally qual
ified by paying the tax executions
against them. l
The entire democratic ticket will re
ceive a handsome majority in Terrell
today. While there is a great deal of
disaffection towards Governor Atkin
son, and he cannot poll the full party
vote, the negroes will vote for him al
most solidly, and his majority will be
larger than it was two years ago. The
rest of the state ticket will receive the
full democratic vote.
Ordinary Roberts, Sheriff Christie
and County Treasurer Perry, demo
cratic nominees, have no opposition,
and will be re-elected unanimously.
Hon, O. B. Stevens for the state sen
ate, Dr. W, ¢, Kendrick for represent
ative, G. R. Cannon for tax receiver,
H. O. Thornton fortax collector and
John Daniel for coroner are opposed
by Messrs. R. H. Fletcher, 1.. M. Jump
er, William Jennings and J. W. Gam
mage respectively. Neither party
has a candidate for county survey
or, and when the votesare counted
tonight the tally sheets will no doubt
show that many names have been vot
ed for.
While the chairmen of the two
parties have failed to appoint managers
at all the precincts, the populists will
be allowed a manager wherever they
apply for one. The managers at the
court house wil be J, M. Simmons, B.
