Tha Democrats claim emphatically the -governor,

torney-general. In Clarke county tha
Democrats claim the dlatrlct attorney, -one
member of the leglalature and tne '
county assessor.
None of the leaders of the Republican
party In thla county has any comment f
to make at this time. Tha campaign,
will be opened about the middle of Sep-,

along llnea to be decided on. relying
mostly upon the efficiency of Its offi
