A piece of perfumed pale-blue note
paper was found yesterday which read
as follows:
“To ’ Messrs. Neely, Gwal’ney,
Parker, Neely, Hume, Smith et at at
So. R’y. et al ergo elsewhere non com
a'ibus in swampo: As it is customary
for the bride to write the notes of
thanks for presents, I have been pa
tiently awaiting but as she has not
yet arrived and the cabbages and
other articles of furniture so kindly
sent by you are beginning to get dusty
and shop worn, 1 hereby proceed to
express to you my deep gratifleitiou
and ”
That’s enough of the note, and from
all I can gather the young man who
wrote it has had quite enough of cab
bage and the like. They didn’t send
many sweets, but he says an overripe
cabbage is one of the best things in
the world to make stummur cake out
of, and he has had a plenty.

MR. CRISP’S ILLNESS.
A’Hrm ng Report* of the o »•
diti n Deni d.
Atlanta, Oct. 13.—Alarming repor's
as to the condition of ex Speaker Crisp
were in circulation on ttie streets yester
dav. Judge Crisp has been at the sani
tarn mos Dr. J. B. S. Holmes for the
past three weeks, and it was reported yes
terday that his condition was so ci ideal
that his closest friends were not allowed
to see him.
Inquiry at the sanitarium, however, de
veloped that these reports were without
real foundation. Dr. Holmes, when seen
by a reporter, stated that Judge Crisp,
who had been suffering with malarial
fever, is now convalescent and able to be
up in the institution. He thinks that he
will be able to be upon the streets in a
week or so.

THE ROME TRIBUNE. WEDNESDAY. OCIOBfeR 14. 1896.
NOW FOR NOVEMBER
A Sixty Thousand Plurality For
Bryan
LIS? OF CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATES
to All Os th* Dam ’critic Nom
inee?, But it Will Not Amount
To Much.
And now for November’s contest.
For a few daj s after the October
battle there is always a lull and let-up
in activity, but things are already be
ginning to warm up for great battle
nextpnonrh. Chairman Clay cannot
be back at headquarters for several
days, but in the meantime Vice Chair
man Northern is in charge.
The rooms in the Kimball present a
busy scene. A lot of good democratic
literature is being sent ont, and the
acting chairman is busy answering
the correspondence. In a few days
more Chairman Clay will return and
the campaign will be pressed with
great vigor in all parts of the state.
Colenel Clay believes that Georgia
will give a plurality of 60,000 for Bryan.
The fact that there is a disposition on the
part, of republicans and populists to
make a hard fight in each of the con
gressional districts will have the effect
of spurring on the democrats, aud will,
therefore, build up the majority.
Here is a table showing the congres
sional candidates:
First Di trict—R. E. Lester, dem; G.
H. Miller, pop.; J. S. Doyle, rep.
Second District—J. M, Griggs, dem.;
J. A. Sibley, pop.; J. E Peterson, rep.
Third District—E. B. Lewis, dem.; S.
M. Howard, pop.
Fourth District—W. C. Adamson,
dem.; C. J. Thornton, pop.
Fifth District—L. F. Livingston, dem;
W. L. Peek, pop., J. C. Hendrix, rep.
Sixth District—C. L. Bartlett, dem.-
A. A. Murphey, pop.
Seventh District —J. W. Maddox,
dem.; J. W. McGarrity, pop.; W. C.
Massey, rep.
Eighth District —W. M. Howard,
dem ; G. L. Anderson, pop ; W. P.
Henry, rep.
Ninth District—F. C. Tate, dem.; H.
E. Winu, pop.; H. P. Farrow, rep.
Tenth District—W. H. Fleming,
dem.; J. T. West, pop.
Eleventh District —W. G. Brantley,
dem.; Ben Milliken, pop.
The Buck-Reed deal, by which the
colonel urged republicans to vote for
Wright and in return for which Col
onel Peek’s congressional ambitions
are to be sacrificed, may make a
change in the above table. With that
exception the populists have made
nominations in all eleven districts;
the rt publicans have been able to find
sacrificial lambs in but six.
There is talk of Col. Peek with
drawing and J. C. Hendrix, republi
can, making the race with populist
support.
