Efforts are being put forth to have the State Democratic ec- utive committee to call an early primary for state house officers. the Streams—Flowery Thriving Town. Wttk BnsineM of to 0,0©© Bale#* Paying Manofaetarina Bnter- l»ri«e#* Good School# and an Enter- prhing People. Concluding my business at Cummin* in Forsyth county, I started Thursday morning on my return trip, to a nearer railroad station. Instead of going to Gainesville, we decided to take the lower route, thereby reaching the Southern Railway at Flowery Branch* Mr. Candler Reed andfMiss Vir ginia Deaton were happily joined in the holy bonds of matrimony on Wednesday afternoon, Feb, 26. The ceremony was performed at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jno: Deaton. Their many friends wish them a happy and prosperous life. This pressure does not come from the friends of either Col. Estill or | one of the thriving towns of Hall coun- Mr. Guerry. As is well known, Mr. ty, The distance from Cummin* to . my destination was- If mile#. Wo Guerry has asked for an August | crossed half a dozen creeks and the Chattahoochee river, making the trip in three hours, despite the fact otf having to faoe a storm of sleet port of the way. F. The Chattahoochee is the dividing line- between Hall and Forsyth coun ties, and is spanned at the point where we crossed by a substantial iron bridge on stone piers. The highway from Camming to Flow ery Branch was lined with well culti vated farms, many of which had houses that would he a credit to a large city. I noticed at one plaoo eight bales of cotton lying out in the weather, and at another six bales, and here and there one and two bales, showing that all the cotton is not yet out of the county. Owing to th# ex tremely bad weather, few people was# to be seen. We passed an eooasfconal buggy or wagon, the first probably carrying a traveler like myself, and the latter hauling wood, which finds ready purchasers at this time of the year. 1 primary and Col. Estill’s triends expect and desire for a late one 80 that the farmers and laboring people, and not court honse cliques, can determine who shall be th eir servan ts. An early primary, now that the season is so late for farming would without] great in convenience and loss of time, al most deprive the farmers of their votes, and no reason, save of polit ical advantage, can be given for early action by the party. Can didates for State house offices, other than Governor, are just en tering therace, and any precepitate action by the committee forcing an early adjudication-, or their rights, will look to outsiders like undertaking to perpetuate the present so called political ring in power. This will be resented in no uncertain way by the voters, and should be. We do not know that Cpl. Ter rell is responsible for this pres sure for an early primary, but we do know Col. Estill and Mr. Guer ry are not, and should Col. Jim Smith enter the race, which seems certain, he should have time. Mr, Terrell should remember the fate of Daniel B. Hill of New in his candidacy for the in 1892. The early call for a convention in New York, and his unanimous endorsement by the same was the satisfying point of the friends of Mr. Cleve land, and “Snap” convention” was the one thing that his friends could never answer to the satis faction of the “country.
