It is very likely that, in accord finer with the recommendation of the State pe mo or a tic Executive Committee, the voters of this coun t v w ill be required to register for the. primary election. It is thought by all with whom we have talked, that ihe county Executive com¬ mit turn will order a compliance with the recommendation above cited. The question will possible be deffi liitcdy settled as soon as and the public will be notified of tho decision is this paper. A telephone message from Dr. Woods to the The Weekly Tues¬ day stated that thier lino had just completed connection w ith Conyers. This now gives Me Donough complete telephonic communication with that place Gov ington and Snapping Shoals, besides the long list originally included, and The Weekly takes pleasure in extending cougrat illations all atound. By the way several new names have have recently been added to vhe exchange, which can be seen by reference to pubished list.-HCo. Wallace P Reed said in last Wednesday’s Constitution t “Yesterday I saw Colonel Bill Peek and Congressman Livings¬ ton holding a brief conversation. Tho former rivals wore smillmg faces, and seemed to be on the best of terms. The colonel and tho congress¬ man tire neighbors. From Peek’s front piazza one can see the smoke curling upward, miles away, from the chimney’s of Livingston’s farmhouse, beyond the borders of Rockdale, in a quiet corner of New¬ ton. Atone time tiiero was no lore lost between these two men, hut they a ro too sensible to let politics maice thorn enemies. Livingston can afford to be in a good humor, because lie has things his own way. and Peek will not sulk in his tent because lie is not built that wav. He may talk discouragingly ahopt agricultnal conditions, buthe is a mode 1 farmer, and has made mo:> •y all his life out of the soil. Agriculture in Georgia would lie all right if all the farmers had the Bill 8f-nse, Peek. industry and economy of Only a few years ago the Russian government sent over two agents who lived on his farm a year or so tolearn his methods wit ii cotton. The colonel has an ideal rural home, and he is happier 1 there than ho , would , , be , ... unshmgton, , . . 1 , in nut doubt any man’s ability to make him see the situation in that light.’ DERI ffilliLIDE^Y.

The sad news of the death of Prof. Sterling Brinkley reached Thompson yesterday. Mr. Brink ley had been ill for some time and there was hope for his recovery until a few days before his death, when there was a decided change for the worse. Mr. Brinkley was a very popular and prominent man wherever he was known, was very highly edu¬ cated, having visited Europe to improve himself in the languages ai d wits a thorough man in the school room. He resided in Flor¬ ida in early years as sell iol master and thence he removed to Augusta as stated in previous article. To all who knew him Mr. Brinkley’s own life and character bespeaks for him more than the author can pen without going into lengt hy de¬ tails. His funeral will occur this morning at eleven o’clock at this place. The deceased was a brother of Mrs. ft! E Norman, of Conyers.—Thomp¬ son-Correspondent to the Augusta Chronicle.
