WRIGHT, of Richmond. For Attorney-General, JOSEPH M. TERRELL, of Mer riwether. For Treasurer, W. M. SPEER, of Fulton. For Cominialoner of Agriculture, O. B. STEVENS, of Terrell. For School Commissioner, G. R. GLENN, of Bibb. Atkinson's Excuse. Railroad Commissioner Spencer Atkinson has written and published the platform on which he will stand before the people as a candidate for the office of governor of Georgia. Tne right of Mr. Atkinson to be a candidate is, of course, unquestioned, and of course the statesman from Glynn found it necessary to formulate some doc ument which he might call a platform, and on which he might ngure as some thing a little better than the other fellow before the mlighltned voters of the state. It makes little difference, however, what the planks of Mr. Atkinson’s platform may be. He has a certain following in this state a great majority of wtiom wil not read his platform, because they were for Atkinson before he announced his plat forni, and they will be for Atkinson so long as he Is running and retains nis name. The News recognizes that Mr. Atkinson is a Democrat. Nor does it doubt that gen tleman’s Democracy. He is a Democrat for rhe same reasons that the News is (Democratic. He, too, is a silver Democrat, and he glories in it. He says, in fact, that he was the pioneer of the silver Democrats in this state, and that he advocated the cause of silver four years before it became si plank in the Democratic platform at Chi cago. He stands by silver to the last gap, and will live and die by silver. And so on through his platform, Mr. At kinson has built it plank by plank with catchpenny promises. That it is as strong a platform, or that it is any more a Demo cratic platform than that of the other good Democrat who has announced his candidacy, the mass cf unpreju diced voters must fail to see. Mr. Atkin son, in fact, does not offer any excuse for his candidacy against Allen D. Candler. His platform only makes it the more ap parent that he is the slave of the ring, aaid that he is a candidate because the ring says that he must be a candidate to rep resent their interests. 'But Mr. Atkinson has been misled. It ds true that he still retains his office as a railroad commissioner, and it is probable that his friends of the ring will not ask him io give up tlr.it fat position. That Would be asking too much of him in the way of sacrifice. He will remain Railroad Commissioner Atkinson -and Candidate At kinson, but in becoming an unnecessary and superflous candidate, he will, of course, become at the same time a useless railroad commissioner, and between the two he will go down to inglorious defeat, shorn of the remnant of strength left to him, and stamped forever as the tool of the master mechanic of the political ma chine of Georgia. But the people are tired of those machin ists. The Atkinson followers will vote for Atkinson—primarily for Bill and second arily for Spencer, but the great majority of the Democrats of the state of Georgia will vote for Allen D. Candler because he is the best man of the two, and will make a governor untrammelled by the rule of the ring. Mr. Atkinson’s platform Is not a strong document. It is not as good a piattorm as that upon which Allen D. Candler stands. He has come into this race without cause, and without excuse, except that which is offered by the men who have controlled for the last four years, and who realize 'that unless they have a candidate to keep them alive, ihe days of their po litical life are drawing to a close. They have chosen poor Railroad Commissioner bpeneer Atkinson as the scapegoat, and he has done his best to rise to the occasion, realizing, however, that he is a beaten man before his race is well begun. Sam Jones had little enough cause to project himself into this race, If indeed he has projected himself. We have waited a Jong time for Mr. Atkinson to offer his excuse, and with that excuse the machine has been in labor. What a pitiful little mouse it has brought forth! Patience—But Dry Powder. The world is now convinced that irasi bil-ity is not the quality of this nation. Under exceptionally trying circumstances the American people have maintained their •equanimity. The spectacle has merited (the plaudits of European capitals. Even Castilian estimates of our national char acter have altered. They are now assured of our demeanor in the presence of crisis 'Everything awaits rhe result of the inves tigations by rhe naval board of inquiry. 'Up to the present time all details, circum stances, presumptions and facts indicate 'that Spanish treachery was at the bottom of the Maine horror, even as that noble ship is now at the bottom of the Havana harbor. If the final judgment shall con firm this, then war is inevitable. The erv as swelling. Soon its thundering chorus may penetrate the halls of congress and ihe White House. The survivors of the ill fated battleship are lending volume to .the martial acclaim. They publicly declare •iftat unless chastisement shall be inflicted upon the Dons they will never pace the deck of another war ship. The situation is supremely critical. One word from the naval board of inquiry and no power can arrest the spark that shall set this na tion aflame. Candler's Fair Fight. There is no such division in the Georgia Democracy as the Evans party and the At kinson party, and if there ever was it dis appeared before Gov. Atkineon was elect ed, says the Savannah Morning News. But the governor, ever since be took office, has been fighting every man he thought was against him, and has seen an "Evans man" in every Democrat who refused to believe Bill Atkinson was a great man and hurrah for him. It was apparently this condition of af fairs which Col. Candler wanted to un even He did not want th stir up old issues, but he wanted the people to under stand that others were doing so. Gov ernor Atkinson has run his administration on the idea that there was an Evans man in every bush, and he has treated as good, if not better. Democrats as he is as Re publicans or Populists, not because they opposed him nomination, but because they have not enrolled themselves among his admirers. Col. Candler did not propose to conduct bis campaign in silence, while his oppo nents were working in the dark to defeat him, and so he uttered a battle cry, as it were, which brought his foes out into the oj>en. He knows who they are now, and ho can fight his battle to muci/betxer ad vantage. Omaha Exhibit. If the Omaha exhibit is a good thing lets get it up. If not, let the whole thing drop. The continual begging for as mall amount of money for an object which it is claimed will be of incalculable benefit to the state is a reflection upon the enterprise, public spirit and inteligence of the state at large. The commissioners are doing the best they can apparently. They do not want very inrush money, but the very slow response made all along the line makes it too ap parent that there is a very great amount of indifference among the people generally. The fact of the matter is that there Is a very grave doubt existing in the public mind as to the amount of benefit occruing to a state as a hesult of exhibits at ex positions. As is looks at present Georgia w i.l not have an exhibit at Omaha, unless something can be done to arouse the more selfish interest in communities in the -un dertaking. The Brunswick Call Is a power in the world, and Mr. d-uißignon must feel awful ly bad when he learns that the Call has ( ternally done with him. The Call says: The Call has never considered Mr. dußig uon of any great weight in the political world, but surely this last display of a small calibre places him forever into po litical oblivion.” Tbo Griffin Call says: “The campaign bomb thrown by Col. Candler in that fa mous second letter flushed nearly all the supporters of Governor Atkinson in his two campaigns, but they are learning that the brick was thrown only at the tricksters and ring-leaders, and being honestly in favor of pure and honest methods in pri maries, are now settling into the Candler ranks, -and propose to squelch out all traders and tricksters In future.” If anybody thinks that the bringing out cf a lot of candidates will rattle your Un cle Allen Candler he may as well banish the thought, says the Augusta Chronicle. He don’t scare worth a cent, and all he asks is a fair field and no favors. He is a winner. Every day shows the emptiness of the recent sensation kicked up over his letter, and shows him getting stronger daily. Cotton has risen -an average of $2 a bale since Feb. 1. About 1,350,000 bales -are still in the hands of producers. The ad vance, 'therefore, will mean to them, if it is maintained—.and we believe it will have realized, selling at .the price January Ist.—Chattanooga Times.

It would have been cheap er to have gone into the sleeper and tip ped the porter. What is all this talk of a scarcity of money? The tin plate trust is counting on a -capital of $30,000,000, and only a few years ago this was rated as an infant in dustry.

Watson, appointed by the city council at Hawkinsville, left yester day for Washington, D. €., where, through Congressman Lewis, they have arranged for a hearing before the river and harbor commission, and with the assistance of Congressman Lewis will endeavor to se cure for the Ocmulgee river an appropria tion of $50,000 to be used in improving this river for navigation. This will show that the amount of freight handled by Hawkinsville’s line of boats is very great, and that the commer cial, industrial and agricultural interests affected by this navigation is very exten sive. They will show to the commission that a reduction of 15 per cent, in freight rates from the west has already been secured, and that 30 per cent. In rates has been saved to the naval store operators along the Ocmulgee, affecting 90,000 barrels of rosin and spirits. The appropriation asked for is much larger than has ever been applied to this part of the river before in one year, but those interested have every reason to be lieve they will succeed In getting it. They have the endorsement cf the engineer in charge, and of the chief engineer, besides the Increase in commerce has been rapid. TO IMPROVE IEDICII ,A. TRHTMEHT 0! W WW To Any Reliable Man.
