They’re the trout —or children of ’em -that the reservoir was stocked with several years ago by the well known city government under a law- which th*»t no one could go out and angle for them, under heavy penalty, unless he were an intimate ' friend of a J’ow er-Thnt- Be and did the fishing surreptitiously.

GOVERNOR RAGE ENTRIES CLOSED Despite various interesting "rumors” going the rounds, opinion is rapidly crystallizing among statesmen near'and far in Georgia that there are to be no further entries into the gubernatorial contest—that the battle is to be fought out between John M. Slaton, of Fulton, and Joe Hill Hall, of Bibb. Talk of Murphey Candler and Thom as S. Felder as candidates practically has ceased entirely. Both are known to have been seriously considered for a time by various political leaders here and there, and undoubtedly pressure was brought to bear on both, from on® quarter and another, to run. It is generally accepted as a fact to day, however, that neither Mr. Candler nor Mr. Felder will get into the fight this time. Thomas W. Hardwick, of the Tenth congressional district, recently was considered a more than likely entry. But Mr. Hardwick has not intimated to anybody publicly that he intends run ning, and specific inquiry directed to him fails to get a reply that indicates his intention, or even remote purpose, to run. A day or so ago there was a revival of the L. G. Hardman boom, and it was given out. with some show of au thority, that the doctor would throw his hat into the ring. But as time runs on the doctor's hat doesn’t appear inside the magic circle; and recent direct in quiry to him has elicited no reply that necessarily means anything. In the meantime, both Slaton and Hall are as busy as can be getting their campaigns shaped up and well under way. Mr. Hall is making speeches daily, and is being greeted with genuine enthusiasm in various quarters. Mr. Slaton ie constantly in close touch with his friends and feels sure that he has fallen heir to a decided preponderance of the late Hudson strength. Apparently, the state is rapidly dlvi<f, ing between these two—and if there are to be other entries, observers of events and things generally are begin ning to wonder why they hang fire so persistently.
