Such a course is entirely unnec essary. I he News knows, as the (iraphie does, that these counties have shotgun supremacy. The News did not ask for infor mation as to how white supremacy has been maintained in the past in counties. Its question was i chit is e to t lie Cut u re.

This brings the counties of the State face to face with the question (Iraphie advises » s to whether or not the county primaries shall be held on the date named for the State primary. Throughout the State the impres sion seems to prevail that a July primary is well enough for the State but is too late for the coun ties. In all counties that have acted to date, an early primary (in April or May) has been called. Tin* question of an early or late primary is one that will have to be settled by the Executive Com mittee in Coweta county, also. The News has not conferred with any member of our Executive Commit tee in reference to this matter and knows nothing whatever about any requests committeeman's views; but the News favors an early primary for t hese reasons: My the last of February all coun ty candidates will be in the field; FERTILIZERS Armour’s Famous Guanos and Acid Phosphates Armour maintained in .'17 count ics tiitlee ol that county and is local wliih in the proportion of two to m, d at that time most ol them will dtorney for the Southern RuiLwiy. one and up to six to one? le was suddenly converted, al'tei Is it not probable that have their campaigns very thor- fu t ii re ‘Highly planned and under way. in interview with Albert Unwell: divisions among white voters will j Alter that date 50 or (10 days is all find, whereas, he had been loyal furnish these qualified negro voters o the Journal and favorable to j the opportunity they evidently Iloke Smith, lie at once turned his tans on the Journal and blossomed "tli as an ardent supporter of ^ lark Howell.
