The general opinion prevails and in fact Godwin men admit it, that no ef fort will be made y the Godwin forces to carry the matter beforoHhe state executive committee, but Godwin will fight the matte out .before the voters next November, his friends as serting that he can beat Clark and any man the Republicans can place in the field. Godwin is very strong in the rural sections and if remains to be seen what the voters of the dis trict think of the course pursued by toe Uodwin followers. ; . .. Mystery Surrounds Death of Young .
