Conservatism on Both Sides Need ed and Several Meetings Will lie Necessary—Conference of the Com mittee With Hailrond Officials Continues. Atlanta, Nov. 16.—President Samuel Spencer of the Southern Railway has written a letter to a prominent city official, in which he expresses hope for a satisfactory arrangement (between this city and the railroads on the freight rates question. He believes it possible to arrive at some agreement, with the proper conservatism on both sides, but thinks it will take several meetings and careful consideration to do so.

Further efforts are being made to get the Louisville and Nashville and the Atlantic Coast Line to enter the conference, but this has not yet been brought about. Order* to Diahnnd.

The Atlanta News, following upon what is practically an announcement of the candidacy of Hon. Boykin Wright of Augusta for Governor two years hence, has the following edito rial comment upon the situation: "Announcement has already been authoritatively made that Hon. Boy kin AVright of Augusta will be in the race for the office of chief executive, and his friends are active in his Inter est all over the state. His is the only positive announcement that has yet been made, but for a long time it has been generally understood that Hon. Clark Howell would enter the cam paign and that in all probability he would he opposed by Col. J. H. Estlll of Savannah. "These three have constituted the alignment until the present time, but within the past few days an effort has been made on the part of the friends of Hon. Thomas W. Hardwick, Con gressman from the Tenth District, to have him enter the campaign and make a race for the governorship squarely on his proposition to disfran chise the negro in Georgia. The ctushlng defeat administered by the Republican party and the feeling on the part of the general public that the negro question had been rendered more acute than ever has encouraged Mr. Hardwick's friends to urge his candidacy.” Gt'ARANTKE CURE FOR I’ll.lC*.
