Massengnle. of Warren county, wrote a friend at tbe state capitol Saturday that he was In the race for railroad commissioner and was sure to win. Mr. Manseneale was one of the most earnest supporters of Hon. Hoke Smith In the recent contest. Hon. Jesse Mercer, of Fitzgerald, is also spoken of In this connection. Hon. Pope Drown, It I* said, does not again lufplro to the position. For api»el!ate court Judgeships, the names of Judge James K. Hlnea of Fulton; Hon. Emerson George, of Mor gan; Hon. W. A. t’ovlngton. of Col quitt, and Hon. Hooper Alexander, of DeKalb, are being variously discussed. These were all ardent supporters of the ~overnei-to-be. and many think the convention will make its selections of three from this list.

AGENTS OF STANDARD OIL GIVEN PASSES BY NE WLA W By Private Letted Wire. Chicago, Aug. 25.—-Despite the watchfulness of the administration*, a "Joker" appears to have crept Into the new Interstate commerce law In the shape of a provision that makes It legal . for any railroad to give free transportation to the offjeer, agents and employees of the Standard Oil Compa ny, and to the members of their fam ilies. The new law makes any person, per sons or corporation engaged In the transportation of oil by pipe lines, a common carrier, and In another section allows a common, carrier to give free transportation to the officers, agents or employees of another common car rler, or to their families. The Standard Oil Company owns and operates pipe lines, and under the Di visions of the new law Is a common carrier. By being classed as a com mon carrier, It Is declared, the officers, agents and employees of the company, together with their families, are enti tied to free transportation from an other common carrier. Just as one rail road is entitled to exchange passes with another railroad. MRS, M'DONALD SUES STREET RAIMA!

They have all the names, except the various Judges and solicitors, hut only a taw of the latter. Them primary and convention being put late this year, they cannot get the names from the secretary of the state Democratic executive committee, aa they have not all reached him yet.
