A considerable frost was looked

It may not be proper for girls to

this ministerial criticism only adds

Congressman Maddox will con

Senator Will H. Lumpkin, of the
Forty-second district, has struck
the keynote with his bill to change
the insolvent traders’ act. There
should not be the slighest trouble
in passing the bill and our dis
patches say there will not be.
The election on November 6th s
one that means much to this peo
ple. Do you favor honest and
economical government; reduction
of the tariff taxes which have bet n
so long a burden upon the many for
the benefit of the few? Cast your
vote for Hon. .John W. Maddox.

A hill was imru<iuced in the Sen

election of judges and solicitors by
the people. This would only in
tensify the troub e complained of.
It puts the election on a purely
political plane, and the successful
candidate lor judge would did him
self under o.ohga'i >us to many’
people. Let the elections stay in
hands of the Les’is’n’nre.

Our Atlanta state that
•Jake f.'oo'o is leading tn the race
for principal keeper <>t the peniten
tiary. This is good news for
Romans. 'There is no man in Geor
gia better fitted for the place and
no man has a stronger endorsement
for the place. Not only is North
Georgia for him, but he has a large
and influential fallowing all over
the State.
Montgomery M. Folsom, the tal
ented newspaper man and poet, will
be a regular contributor to The
Tribune. He is well known to the
readers of The Tribune, and his
work will be appreciated. No ef
fort will be spared to make Thy
Tribune one of the leading dailies
of the South, and if energy and
talent will cause it there is no
doubt about the result. Theie is
no change incur present excellent
force, and the contributions of Mr.
Folsom come in as additional int.r*
esting matter for our subscribers.
VOTE AND VOTE BIGHT.
Next Tuesday the people will
have an opportunity of voting for
prosperity or poverty, fcr Democ
racy or demagogism, for the peo
ple or for Populism. Hon. John W.
Maddox, our present able Con
gressman, is opposed by Dr. W. H.
Felton, the Populist nominee. There
is no doubt about the result. Mr.
Maddox will be returned to Con
gress. The best informed Popu
lists do not believe Mr. Maddox
can be defeated, but they hope to
largely decrease his majority be
cause of the differences and dissat
isfaction that exists in the Demo
cratic party. By stimulating and
trying to increase the dissatisfac
tion they hope to so blind and con
fuse the voter that he can not see
the real issue at stake.
Let us put it plainly.
Judge Maddox has shown by his
votes in Congress that he repre
sents the sentiment of an over
whelming majority of the people of
the district. On every occasion he
was with the people. He was prom
inent among the Congressmen who
stood for the South and the inter
ests of her citizens. As a Democrat
of recognized ability he brought in
fluence to bear upon his colleagues
for the measures he advocated. He
voted for silver and will continue to
do so.
Dr. Felton represents himself.
As a Populist he is at once looked
upon with disfavor and discredit.
He is no better friend of silver than
is Judge Maddox. His record
shows him not to be in touch with
the people as Judge Maddox. He
can not wield the influence in Con
gress that our present Congressman
does.
Then why’ not make Judge Mad
dox's majority larger than at the
last election?
Capitalists are timid about in
vesting in communities tainted with
Populism. A small majority for
Maddox will cause them to look at
our district with fear. A small ma
jority for Maddox means less money
for the people of the district and a
check of the prosperity that is now
so promising. Five cent cotton is
disheailenlng, but how can Dr.
Felton do more to raise the price
ihan can Judge Maddox.
Democracy and Judge Maddox
represent prosperity; Populism
and Dr. Felton mean poverty.
Which will you choose?
Think over these things, and
when you vote Tuesday remember
that the material interests of your
section and yourself are at stake.
FOR RAILROAD COMMISSIONER.
One of Governor Atkinson’s ap
pointments will be a railroad com
missioner to succeed Gunby Jordan,
who is filling the unexpired term
caused by the death of Virgil Pow
ers. According to the provisions
of the bill constituting the commis
sion the place is to be filled by a
man of railroad experience. Thi.
fact and others have caused a num
ber of the most prominent men
from all over the State to urge a
distinguished fellow Roman to
allow the use of his name.
This is Dr. Eben Hillyer, a gen
tleman who for twenty years was
one of the most successful railroad
men in the State. There isn’t today
a man in the State who is better
posted on railroad matters, and »s
a careful, capable, consciemions
gentleman he has few peers He is
just the kind of man the Slate
needs in such a position. His
qualifications for the place can not
be excelled, and the intelligent ser
vice he could and would render the
people of Georgia could not be ex
celled by any applicant or non-ap
plicant for the place.
His railroad experience has given
him a wide knowledge of all matters
to come before the commission, and
he could intelligently take hold of
the work without a moment’s delay.
, Every railroad man in Georgia will
say as much and more for Dr. Hill
yer, and it would be impossible to
find a better man for this place.

ROMANESQUES.
Ave Bomul
The hills ot Rome, the hill* of Rome,
Where many * heaven aspiring dome
In majesty it* head uplift*.
Where dreamily the miat wreath drifts
Above the autumu tinted woods
Where silence of the ages broods;
And winsome vale* reflect the sheen
Os sober brown and living green,
Where softly glide* the Usher’s barge
Along the Oos anaula marge,
Whose murmuring wave* white-plumed with
foam
Dance merrily round the hl 1* of Rome.
The hills of Rome, the hills of Rome,
Where laughing sprite and merry gnome
Come forth in twilight’s deepening shade
To chase the Are flies down the glade,
Where Etowah’s slow waving tide
Winds through the meadows spreading wide,
And Coosa's current, deep and strong,
In eurly grandeur rolls along.
Fair city of the bright blue hills
Thy charms the poet’s bosom tills
With dreams divine; thou art the home
Ot song, among thy hills. O Rome!
Montgomery M. Folsom.
It is rather cool in the weather bureau
to give us such’a suappish spell.
They say that over about Gainesville
there is a scarcity of water. This does
not affect the general welfare of the
people, however, forasmuch as the flow
of moonshine has not diminished nor is
its natural strength abated.
“Me Lud” Beresford is nothing if not
polite. His first salutation to Governor
Atkinson was “I beg your pardon, sir.”
The recent political eruption has
brought forth from their lairs some of
the queerest of God’s creatures, and
some of the camp following retainers
and job h unters remind the casual ob
server of the ungreased hind wheels of a
forgotten century as they rotate about
the Kimball house in Atlanta.
Truth is stranger than fiction, but in
the unterrified presence of the campaign
liar even truth itself stands aghast.
Bing a song of sixpence,
Pocket full o’ coni,

Took a little horn;
When the horn was taken
The yap began to prance,
'Long came the peeler man

Sam Whitmire, of the Macon News,
advertises for a pair of thoroughbred
gondolas to place on the raging Ocmul
gee. Having succeeded in steering a
schooner across the East Macon bar he
has decided to launch into the boat rais
ing business. Sam is a great buoy.
And now comes Hypolite, the black
despot of Hayti,who is getting gay with
his body guard and swears by the great
Cilabash that if they kt everybody slip
in and assasinate him he will wipe the
brow of the earth up with them.
A funny thing occurred to a leading
newspaper man of Atlanta, who is a
sort of Ahkoond of Swat, in political
circles likewise, on Sunday evening
last. He had been down to a political
headquarters to get a clove to take the
taste of tne hydrant water out of his
mouth and was feeling pretty well,
thank you, when he boarded a car,
fondly imagining tnat he was home
ward bound. Seating|himself he began
to investigate the bead lines of his paper
when suddenly glancing out of the
window he beheld the tombstones in
Oakland cemetery.
g “Here, you, conductor; where in the
shade of sheol am 1 at?”
“Keip quiet, my friend, this is Oak
land cemetery. ’ ’
“Oakland pendition! Do I look like a
corpse? Ain’t this —street car?”
“Yes, when it is going in that direc
tion. You looked at the wrong end of
the car, perhaps.”
“Wrong end be razzle dazzled! Why
didn’t you take in that sign?”
“How could I tell where you were
going?”
“Stop! Put me off!!! How long till
the next car going back to town?”
“Twenty minutes.”
‘‘Twenty monkeys with their tails
burnt off! lam expected at church and
here lam at 11 o’clock on the back
porch of nowhere! Stop the ! !
As he steadied himself against a ten
foot panel of the blue sulphuric flames
curled gently upward asphyxiating the
English sparrows while the Decatur
bound trolly car disappeared in the
offing.
