Then the rest of the district i f
given by counties:
GORDON COUNTY.
Calhoun, Ga., November 7
The best estimate with precincts
heard from is that Gordon county
has gone for Feltou by 160 majori
ty.
COBB COUNTY.
Marietta, Ga., November 7.
The majority of this ceunty for
Maddox will be about 500. Ten
precincts, including Marietta, out
of fifteen by vote stand: Maddox,
1,190; Felton 628. A majority re
port from twelve precincts give
Maddox a majority of 569. Three
country precincts yet to hear from
will reduce this to 500.
BARTOW COUNTY.
Cartersville. Ga., November 7.
Maddox carries this, Felton’s home
precinct. Felton’s majority in the I
county is 350.
CATOOSA COUNTY.
Ringgold, Ga., November 7.—The
total vote in Catoosa county today
was 490 Maddox recieved 344;
Felton rec eved 146.-Maddox’s
majority 193.
CHATTOOGA COUNTY.
Summerville, Ga., November 7.
The vote in Chattooga, 825; Fel
ton 400 Maddox’s majority 425.
WHITFIELD CO3TY.
Dalton, Ga., November 7. —With
four precincts to hear from, Mad
dox has *214 majority in this coun
ty. Populists concede it t® Maddox
by 109 majority.
MURRAY COUNTY
Murray couuty goes for Maddox
by 150 majority. A populist tough
had hie jaws slapped by a demo
crat today for telling him he vot
ed a “scoundrel’s ticket,’’ when he
voted the democratic ticket. The
populist got a good ear-boxing.
DADE COUNTY
Trentou, Ga., November 7.
Dade county will give Judge Mad
dox at least 300 majority.
POLK COUNTY.
<
Cedartown, Ga., November 7.
Polk has gone for Felton 400 ma.
jority. The total vote is about
1,600, with a registration of 2,400.
The vote is about 175 less than the
October election. A full thirdpar
i ty vote was polled, and there was a
RAH FOR BONDS.
Outlook is That the Great Question
is Settled Satisfactorily.
LAW AND OPINIONS.
It Required only Two-thirds of
the Tally Sheets of the Last
Election, and Floyd
County Bonds are
Safe.
Hurrah for Floyd county and
bonds.
According to the construction of
the law and the opinions of the
best posted men in the city, bonds
are safe, aud the people Lave said
to issue the same.
Everybody was feeling gloomy
last night over the outlook, for the
outlook was that the famous ques
tion of bonds had been lost. The
general expression was that it re
quired a two-third vote of the total
| registration list, and as only
2,096 votes were cast for bonds,
and as it required over 2,600, the
prospects were not good.
But this morning parties inter
ested have been looking up the
law, and according to everyone’s
opinion it means that two-thirds
of the tally sheets of the last elec
tion, which was in October. The
total vote then was about 2,025,
and as the vote for the bond issu
stoid 2,096 for, and 81 against,
we will carry the day.
Rome east 1 107 votes for bonds
and not one against them. Ain’t
that something to be proud of?
ButjEverett’s Springs is the ban
ner district of disgruntled cranks.
The total vote against bonds was
81, and that district cast 41 of
them ! Ain’t that something to be
ashamed of?
The J subject of Floyd county
bonds has assumed national im
portance, and great minds of this
country have expressed opinions
on the iesue. And the papers from
Maine to California have oeen fill
ed with long dispatches, and edi
torials about them
One thing certain—Floyd is tie
best advertised county in the Uni
ted States. Letters es inquiry aud
suggestion have poured ia here
for several weeks.
The general opinion of the best
posted men seen* is that the bonds
are all right. And according to
correct reading of the law it will
prove so.
Below is given the votes of each
district on the bond issue:
