P'stmastersaip contests already loom large on the Democratic horizon in , Georgia, and the prospects a,rc for some lively timewahead In the .matter of | plucking here and I there those most , desirable plums. Already there are 42 candidates for the Job in I Thomasville. This is. n as yet, far Above the aver age, of course, but it is significant, nevertheless. Rome is to have one of the pret tiest fights—only it win not be a "fight" exactly - of them all, even if nobody other JajOJ* ts MErvrtW than the two present avowed candi dates throws hie hat Into the ring. John M. Vandiver, present tax col lector and former postmaster under President <'leveland, wants the Rome postmastership, and so does Jack Mc- Cartney, managing editor of The Rome Tribune- Herald. That is going to make it mighty em barrassing for Rome to take sides. Both of these aspirants are very pop ular, both exceptionally fine fellows and both amply equipped for the job. If either would retire In the other's fa vor. Rome doubtless would make it unanimous. Rather than choose between McCart ney and Vandiver the average Roman will prefer to take to the woods, in all probability. Those few people who just natural ly will not be happy in this world, no matter what happens, are viewing pes simistically nowadays the overwhelm ing Democratic majority In the next house of representatives in Washing ton. Said one Geogian today. discussing the matter: "It would be much better If the margin of control yvere closer. "When the margin is natTow. cen gressmen are much afore depepdent upon one another than they are when it is wide. And the inevitable conse quence Is that peace in'the family Is more easily obtained and preserved. “With a big, margin, factions arise and mean family spats occur. The temptation to row is much greater in a big majority than In a small one. "Democrats are not as easily disci plined as Republicans, moreover and while this may be to their credit In a way, it frequently Interferes seriously with the progress of legislation along lines likely to stand before the country in Its broader aspect. “1 would much have preferred a nar row margin of control. As an immedi ate example of the tendency-to insur gency in a big majority, I call attention to the fact that Congressman H nry, of Texas, even now is snapping at Champ Clark and announcing himself a receptive candidate for speaker of tlfi* house! "Imagine disputing Clark’s right to be renamed the speaker! It makes me tiled and it argues no good!" There is, to be sutf'. mon- than one grain of wholesome truth In what this gentleman says -still, the victory yet is so young that most folks' of Demo cratic persuasion will pfefer to cross no bridges before they reach them.

Crash! Sna! Pop! Bang! And all was over. Results: A cog wheel two feet long was stripped, and a large casting collar that held the driving wheel in place broke. Gee whiz! And that was election day, too, and Wilson and Marshall sweeping both the state, and the na tion ! A great many people are strangely confused about the functions and op eration of the “electoral college.” so called. The popular notion that the “elec toral college" is some sort of national Institution is all a mistake. There are, as a matter of fact, 48 “electoral colleges"—one in each state. The electors chosen, under the layvs of the states, meet In the respective capitals threof on the first Monday in January and proceed to ballot, one time only, for a president and vice president. The results of these ballots are sealed and sent to Washington by individual state messengers, yvho must be chosen, as must secretaries of the "colleges," from outside the membership of the “colleges.” These votes are delivered by the mes sengers to the vice president of the United States, or in case there Is no vice president, to the president pro tempore of the senate—in the present case, to Senator Bacon, of Georgia. Subsequently the two houses of con gress meet in joint session, canvass the entire electoral vote and declare the re sult. Joseph E. Pottle, brother of the ap peals court judge, and solicitor general of the Ocmulgee circuit superior court, is an Atlanta visitor. Mr. Pottle was accompanied on this ‘tip to Atlanta by a particularly hand some gold-headed umbrella; and there by hangs a tale. Not a great while ago. Mr. Pottle successfully prosecuted tor murder a man in his circuit, and the brother of the slain nutn attended the trial. So pleased was he with the way Mr. Pottle handled the ease that he sent the so licitor, a few weeks after the trial, the aforesaid umbrella and an even more beautiful gold-lie ided cane. He was under no sort? of obligation to send the solicitor ,m t of course, for that of ficial merely was performing his duty under the law, and for that particular reason Pottle appreciated the gift thor oughly. In all his practice as prosecuting al lotney he never before was remembered by any person in just that way . Now that the Democrats have the new congres: as.-iued. and th matter of committee plums is being consid ered, tile friends of Congressman-elect 1 'buries Crisp are talking him lor Mr, Brantley’s place on the ways and means committee of the house. This is a high committee, and would not ordinarily go to a new member, but Mr. Crisp might not be held' strictly within that rule, as he has been a very important part of the house—lts par liamentarian —for the past two years, Is the son of a former speaker, and is I very' popular among the members.

Woodrow Wilson’s overwhelming vic tory and his complete sweep of Georgia has not daunted the Bull Moosers of the state. Plans are being made by Progressive leaders in Atlanta not only to hold the strength that Roosevelt polled Tuesday, but to continue their attack on the Democratic stronghold. According to these plans, the Progres sive party will have candidates out in the next congressional elections and it is even declared that they will put out a state ticket. Stephen R. Rolles, of the Roosevelt party, said today the leaders would get to work immediately. Their sentiment is unanimous in refusing to quit the fight. "Although our Georgia vote was hardly as large as we expected,” he de clared, “it was a surprisingly strong one to the. Democrats. For the first time since the war the Democrats were so thoroughly alarmed that they had to work to carry the state. In view of this, we are far from downcast. I have talked with all of the leaders and they all agree that our start was so success ful that no thought of abandoning the new party should be considered. "The same conditions prevail over the nation. We have word from national headquarters that the Progressives in every state are going out after more strength. The next congressional elec tions will show- our gains. "Tile women of Georgia will be given a part in our work, which must be largely educational right now. When we have taught the people what the Progressive party stands for, then the work of organization will be easy.” A definite plan of campaign will be outlined by the Progressives in a few days. • SAVANNAH’S BIG NOISE TAKES PLACE TONIGHT SAVANNAH.

SHERIFF BLUFFS BIG CROWD DETERMINED TO WITNESS HANGING DOUGLASVILLE, GA., Nov. 9.—Hen ry Amos, the negro who killed Cain Jones, another negro, in this county last May, and who paid the penalty with his life here yesterday, went to his deatn in apparently the same uncon cerned manner that marked his de parture from the jail in Atlanta yes terday morning. He made no further admission concerning the killing than he had made at his trial, when he claimed self-defense. Thousands of persons thronged the streets here, doming from this and ad joining counties. They crowded around the inclosure about the gallows in an effort to witness the hanging. At one time the crowd threatened to tear down the high fence, but the movement was quickly checked w’hen Sheriff Baggett ordered his deputies to secure the names of all those who attempted to destroy it and report them to the grand Jury. This was the first legal hanging ever held in Douglas county.
