The Tampa.TrIbune publishes the fol. lowing: Woodrow Wilson at tbe present time .ninds a better chance of being the Democratic nominee for tbe presidency. In the opinion of Major Charles Wright, ,,r this city, than any other person In the ranks of Democracy. The major had Just returned from an extended tour. He went as far West as Utah and Wyoming. "I found," he said, "that ths New Jer sey governor is easily the choice of most Democrats. Harmon la n6xt. I be lieve Wilson will get the bulk of the totes In his party, but New York will vote against him. because New York wants conditions to remain as they are."

"Woodrow Wilson Is sure to hare Texas line up for him In the race for the Democratic nomination for presi dent.” said John Dee. of Dallas, who Is \ (siting In Atlanta. Mr. Lee Is a native Georgian, and a brother of Dr. J. W. Lee. former pas tor of Trinity church. This Is his first visit to Georgia In fifteen years. In Dallas, which Is governed on the com mission plan, Mr. Lee Is one of the five commissioners, and has chargs of the department of streets and public properties. "Practically the entire state of Texas Is for Woodrow Wilson as the next Democratic nominee," Mr, Leo peated. "Governor Arthur Colfiltlttls a Har mon man, and, there are-a few others scattered around thru the state, but they haven't the enthusiasm that the Wilson men have, and tlio Wilson men are not so much the politicians as the men In prlvato life. The masses of people seem attrueted by' the man's ability and record, and believe In him as they believe in no other man the Democratic party ha* to offer. "Mr. Wilson spoke out there In Dab Ins Saturday a week ago.” he continued. "It was while the stato fair was In progress, and there were 128,000 ad missions to the fair gates on the day lie spoke. "It was called -Woodrow Wilson day.’ and It really was the Prlncetonlan’s Ilav all right. You never saw such en thusiasm as those Texans showed over the man. There were business and worldgg men from Dallas and farmers from all over the county to hear him, and they took In every word he had to -ay. "All of his speech was clean and open and to the point That’s what appeals to Texas people, and what, I believe, appeals to the real voters everywhere, and when you get a man running for president who la clean and open on the platform, and has a clean and open record behind him, you've got tbe man who Is going to win. 1 don't think there Is any doubt that the Democrats can < irry the next presidential election if they put Wilson at tho head of their ticket. "In his speech Wilson talked on the subject of politics and pollticlarfs In a way that appealed to his hearers. He made one remark that brought a laugh and cheer from every man In the crowd. He was speaking of 'rough politicians' and the way to get rid of them. '"The treatment for a rough politi cian,’ sold Mr. Wilson, Ms Just like that for tuberculosis. Put them In the open sir to sleep. In other words, Just turn I hem out of office and your cure Is ef fected.'

The bullet Is believed to have lodged in the muscles of the back. Phy sicians say the wound Is not serious. An X-ray will probably be used to de termine the exact location of tho bul let. S. J.

Los Angeles, Nov. 6.—Three unusual events may mark the course of tho trial of James B. McNamara during the coming week. One Is the possible dis missal of Seaborn H. Manning, passed for cause by both sides and asserted by many to be the only man who would be retained as a Juror, at the order of the court after a physical examination demanded by a committee of four tales men sent to welt on Judge Bordwell. Tb* second Is the possible further ex amination of Talesman George K. Mc Kee, retained In the box over the chal lenge of the defense, by order of the court on new Information said to have been discovered by the defense. Third Is the possible filling of the box and the first exercise of peremptory chal lenges. Tho first two may make the latter difficult, if not Impossible. If Manning and McKee should be ex cused, Instead of'a single man to pass for cause, there would need to be three In the box. and with only 21 men now available for examinations. It Is not believed there is a probability, as things have been running, that the box will be filled before the week end*. One thing seems certain, however, and that Is when the box I* filled for the second time the work will only be begun. ,Tbe peremptortes will be ex- ervlsed ruthlessly and even the most optimistic say that not more than three men will be left when the chal lenges are In, while a majority of those who have been following the case close ly say that only one. Manning, will re tain hi* seat. BITTER FIGHT IN STATES Eyes Centered on New Jersey Vote, Where Gov. Woodrow Wilson Holds Strong.

A correspondent of The Georgian has Just furnished this paper with what Is doubtless the-mnst remarkable political document Issued In Georgia In a deegde. It la a circular letter which has been sent out to thousands of negroes in the state urging them to demand their rights and secure registration, stating to them that the heads of the Republi can party In Georgia are with them and that they can evade the dlsfranchise- ment law. The letter bear* the signature of Clark Grier, of Dublin, prominent In Republican politics In the stato. But the most remarkable feature of this remarkable letter lies In one of the concluding paragraphs, which Is as fol lows: . "I am sending the printed instruc tions on the back of this letter to every colored man whose name is furnished me. I am spending lote of money and this expense is being paid by the Geor gia Distributing Company of Jackson, villa, Fia., distributors of pure whiskies, etc., whose circular I inclose, and I want you to patronire thi* firm for. this generoue act on their part toward the colored men of Georgia." The circular was sent to The Geoi- glan by a white.man who evidently re ceived It by mistake. Her* Is the text of tho circular: Dear Sir—On the reverse side of thle sheet you will find Information that will explain how you ran register and vote. The Impression prevails that all col ored inen arc disfranchised In Geor gia; this Is not true. Post yourself und the way Is open If you demand your right* and are fairly treated hy tin tax collector and registrars.

And here are hla • explanation* and Instructions to tho negroes, following the printed extracts from tho registra tion and election laws: Register this fall when you pay your taxes, but In the Judgment of those who have studied tho law carefully, the opinion seem* to prevail that It will be necessary to register again after January 1, so as to be cllglblo to vote In the 1912 elections.

On'Aprt! 20, 1912, In each county the board of registrars meet, and they may call you before them to show cause why you should not he stricken from the said registra tion bonk.
