A DAY'S DOINGS IN GEORGIA TOWNS A Batch of Bright Items Furnished by the Telegraph's Hustling Correspondents PULASKI COUNTY POPULISTS Keating Held lie HawklnavllU l« teleet »wt Nomlaiftle Und(. datiM-nora Nagroii PrtMnI Than White*. T H&wklnsvUle, July 19.—(Special.)— IThe third party people met at the court houae here yesterday for the purpose of selecting delegates to their congres sional convention and for nominating two * candidates for’ representative! of the county. The delegates were se lected without any trouble, but when it cunt" to select candidates for represen* (alive* they “struck ti stump." G. \y. Moyd was nominated , and about nn hour and a half was spent la tfrying to force him to accept, but by repeated efforts they finally con vi heed him that they could not force It upon him. J. W. Conner was next nominated with no better success: he emphatical ly declined to accept. The names of a dozen others was put forward, but no •a* being found to bite at the bait, the meeting, after a session of three hours, adjourned to take another whack at it later on. When tho meeting, business will be forced -to a finish. The timidi ty <on tho part of the nominees In tho convention to accept the honors that were rolled from one to another In sue* sewdon ns .the meeting progressed, was dramatically explained by Fred Wim berly ns tending to prove that the party wus not an office-seuklng people. There are more ways than one, how ever, to interpret this timidity. They see the handwriting on tho wall of the Democratic camps, which they may iweli Interpret us an eternal bar to tho suc<^m» of nil who do not rally around (ho old standard. There were about forty white Popu lous present and ntout seventy-five ne groes. J. O. Baskin acted as chairman, K. C. Allen secretary apd Blue Fred did the honors ns ohief cook and bot* tlo*wuHhor and rising master combined. Bio failed throughput' the -proceedings however, to muko the “critters’* Jump tho bars. Tho nio<rtlng was void of all enthusi asm. void of Intorest and void of busi ness. It was a-flatfooted failure from beginning to end. and it did Bocrm that it ought to be enough to disgust them With their own party. The banner of Democracy still waves In Pulaski. It hns strong, tried and willing hands to support nnd ever jsre* serve It against going down In defeat, and such efforts made ns.that today ex cites only sympathy for tho deluded fol lowers of the broken down politicians who hopo to divide or, If possible, wreck the Democratic party of the South and ride Into official prominence on Its ruins. 1 BUSH'S COMMITMENT TRIAL. {After Hearing Evidence He Was Re manded to Jail Charged With Mur- , der. gandersvllle, July 1 19.—(Special.)— The preliminary trial off \V. J. Bush, who felllitd h1s fattier-ln-l.Vw, Mr. Jcsbo G.

Bush. A few minutes after 11 o'clock this morning the cry of tire was heard,-and dt was soon discovered that* Col, J. N. O-rimore’rt barn was rapidly being con sumed by the flames. The barn Is sit uated near the Gilmore hou ».* and the public square. It made a big fire and some peopto feared that other buildings iwould be burned nJso, but nothing more than tho barn was destroyed. It Is not easy to tell, but the loss will probably be about $1,000 and. If no more , tho insurance will cover the amount. This Is tho second one that ttmc been burned on the exmo place within n short time. Tho Are is thought Ho bo of Incendiary origin. . A DELIGHTFUL RECEPTION. .
