Tbe Atlanta Journal of Monday
afternoon contains the formal an
nouncement 0/ General Evans for
governor. Having been asked the
question direct he would be a can
didate be replied as follows;.
‘Any further announcement of my
candidacy is not neoessary unless a
proper resjiect for a great number, of
my fellow citizens requires me to ray
that I am deeply grateful for the gen
erous expression,already m&de.of their
desire to confer upon me the honor
and trust of the office of governor,
and that, it nominated.and elected, 1
will devote myself to the dudes of
that position with due regard to all
interests, all classes and all sections to
the utmost of my ability. I bad sup
posed that my candidacy was suffici
ently announced by the press of the
state since the last formal interview
published last summer, and I have
simply waited upon the public will,
because I have in this important mat
ter ho personal., ends whatever to
serve.
With a gratitude which I cannot
express I have observed the growth of
an unsolicited ipopular purpose to be
stow upon me the highest honor which
Georgia can give, and I will be faith
ful to this great trust if it should be
imposed upon me.
'I desire it to be understood that
not entering upon political
life. Political ambition is by no
means dishonorable, but ou the con*,
traiy any citizen who is qualified for
office has the right to seek and ob
tain it by lawful and honorable ens
deavors. But, speaking solely for
myself, I must say that no political
position other than that of governor
would be a proper object oi my own
ambition.
I love my native state sincerely
aod would gladly give it my whole
service. I know its history am) its
laws, its great resources and its need?,
and will join my fellow citizens in
prosperity.
As to vital present issues my views
hive been published,and I would still
counsel fidelity to the old landmarks
and a reform along all the lines of
political errors of the last thirty year?.
We cannot recede from those princi*-
pies of our government which have
been tho guide of true democracy
without perpetuating the wrongs by
which the people have suffered,
“Paiisutly, but persistently and
earnestly, we must reinstate these
principles in power and euforce them
by legis’otion. They are fairly set
forth ia tbe democratic platforms,
both national aod stats, and we must
confidently expect their triumph and
uuitedly urge their adoption.
“Repealing the expression ot my
gratitude for ihe honor which so many
of the people of Georgia have already
bestowed upon me by the declaration
ot their desire to support me for that
office, The Journal may state that I
am a candidate for governor, subject
to the democratic nomination.'

The CarneQville Tribune thiuks
some legislation ia necessary in order
to have good roads. Here is the plan
it suggests:
We notice some of our exchanges
saying that the legislature should pass
some road laws before itarijourus. We
think this is 00 the right line, a* our
present road laws are deficient and we
are confident that oar roads will nevei
be much belter until they are worded
under a different system.
Let us .suggest that each county
work its own convicts, and that a poll
tax of $1 be levied on every poll t*x
payer,. and if necessary supplement
that with a small advalorem or prop
erty tax, and let the roads out to the
lowest bidder, who should be bound
to faithfully perform his duty, then
we cau have good roads. So long as
our system remains as it is we never
will have good roads-
Let tie present legislature by all
means pass some such measure as this
before it adjournr.

It will soon be time for making, as
i well as breaking, New Year resolu

that this would be a good resolution
for every farmer to make:
“I will, providenco aiding and per

on the farm this year.”
This resolution, if kept, will bring
renewed prosperity and happiness to
hundreds of households, in Thomas
county. Make if, farmers, and then
keep it.
The Jackeon'Argus says that a inau

smiling face ot charity is better than
houses and laud It is better than a
landed estate to be the child of a good
father and mother,and it is worth more
than a baroi.’s caatlo to be brought up

Harry Hill is queer. No sooner

on Tuesday. Among other things he
sa-d* 1.
t epcuially requested by he
Pr«s den t»conv.y to ycif his regrets
that hv wa a unable to be with >ou to

deny himself the pleasure of coming
because'of the fact that on one or two
other occasions he had been obliged
to declxe invitations to visit thin
typical sout: cm city. I myself was
especially anxious he sheu'd come.
I wanted him to see a city of which
all ftbuthcruers are proud, and I want
ed you 10 see him; but it was impos
sible. His engagements w.re too
pressing, and wuh him it is always
duty,batore pleasure. ,
‘*1 dj not intend to make any polit
ical speech or political reference, but,
whtie l am offering this excuse for the
non-attendance of the President, it
will-cot be out of place, I hope, lor
me to say jj*t one word about him.
And I feel lhat I can speak to you as
one of yourselves. I was born in the
state, just east of Savannah, I was
reared in the state that lies just west
9t the Chattahoochee. I am identi
fied with you by all the hopes ot the
past and future. Aod so I am almost
a Georgian myself. I say to yon that
if the people, who are here before me,
could have only been with the Presi
dent as your distinguished fcllow>cili-
zen, Secretary Smith, aqd myself have
been for the last nine months—if you
could only have heard him %* we have
heard biro, in the privacy of his cabi
net, discussing questions that affect
the welfare ot ihe people and the
honor of the country, so you could
know as we do bis real sentiments,
you would trust him more implicitly
than you have in the past. But it 1
were to say more on this line I should
perhaps be guilty of an impropriety,”
