Darien, Oa., Sept. 11.—The political sit uation In Mclntosh county has arrived at that point In list Intensity usually termed the boiling point. The four most warmly contested races are those for clerk of the Superior Court, ordinary, representative and senator. The Democrats have nom inated Mr. William H. Atwood for repre sentative. and Col. David A. Smiley for senator. There have been no other Demoertlc nomination* for other office*, but the ne groes of this county have endorsed a can didate for each office.
