For secretary of state McCewn seems to be the favorite., but Ragin is polling a large vote in the lower of the state and it is thought to be pushing him close. Avery peculiar feature of the cam paign was the fact that the rgce for attorney general overshadowed that of the gubernatorial contest, owing to the fact that Senator Ben Tillman took a prominent part, urging the de feat of J. Fraser Lyon, who was the leading spirit in the dispensary in vestigatlou. There were two other candidates, J. W. Ragsdale, who re ceived the support of Senator Till and L.eroy F. Yoemans, the pres ent incumbent. Despite the fight ol Senator Tillman upon him Lyons win be elected by a good majority over his two opponents. Boyd seems certain of being elect ed adjutant general a nd Jones has a good lead over Walker for comp troller general. * race for railroad commissioner was spirited up to the eleventh hour and the finish is neck and neck be tween Warton and Summersett. The election passed off quietly ana without' any disorder. Mncfn jpter £S{ was centered in the result, how-, ever, on acpunt of the growing oppo sition to the dispensary.

Is M All Fay How if Is Want to Fids on the Railroads ffIEUE ah so mnm Bill Went Into Effect Yesterday and the New Law Will be Rigidly Enforced —Newspapers Are Also Included. With the last stroke of 12 o'clock mid-night last night. Georgia, legeth er with the rest of 1 h,- country, be gan upon anew can se far as passes and free transportation are concerned and the death knell of special ; tivili ges was sounded. The great change was occasioned tby the new rate bill of tin bit :r stale commerce commission, which went into effect midnight .Mohdai night. Conflicting as many of the new bills may appear, according to tin testimony of many railroad expert.; there is no circumventing the fac. that passes anti free transport at ion i. ! made unlawful under the provisions I of tiie new bill. Incidentally the | fact that both tile user of a pass a > i well as the official of a railroad is j suing the pass are subject to heavy penalty under the law makes it cer tain that there will be a certain ami sudden stop in the request for passes. Must Pay Reai Cash. From now on the railroads will have to pay in actual cash for what ever advertising they may insert iu the newspapers while those connected with the newspapers from editor in chief to cub reporter will pay for their transportation just as the rest of tile public. The new law gives particular at tention to this matter and states that no passes, tickets or free transpor tation may he grantod to newspapers to he paid for in advertising. Up to this time many of the newspaper:- nave kept accounts with railroad:-; ana have paid tor their transportation in advertising. Settlements were math monthly and it the railroads had used -note advertising space than (hey han granted transportation, the diilerenct was paid in cash. On tin other ham: it more transport a i ion had 'keen uso-i by the renilroads than tin sum over ling their advertising hill, this dii ference was settl* and by the nows-papor in cash. Now oil this ir changed, Loth tltc railroads aind the newspapers will have lo pay for what they gs: in cot. eiisli. exactly in the sum, w-ay a tin )'est of the public. That the railroads arc very much disturbed by these conditions is t-.vi dent. Tint sudden taking 'away ot tile pass privilege means ihat. from now on the business must he trans acted on a regular business founda tion. it means that where judges oi the United States courts have b. en issued annual passes for them solve - and trip passes for the members oi the family, letters must he wiittten - or have been— calling in this priv ilege and apoligi/.ing on tile grounds that the railroads were in no way responsible for the new 1 ill. hut on the contrary were bitterly opposed to its passage from (ho start. It was also stated yesterday that these letters calling for free passes irom editors, judges, municipal stat--. and federal officials, carried iili them sincere regrets Ihat the new law nec essitated the withdrawal of these pas ses from those who had proved their friendship to the railroads in many ways for many years. It was also reported that these let ters called ati.cntioii to thw fact that the law the penalty was the same for the person using the free pass in violation of the new act as it was for the official or railroad using it.
