HE INVADES GEN. EVANS’
TERRITORY
raejr of Floyd is
For Him.
Rome.Ga., January 20.—[Special.]
—Hod.-W. Y. Atkinson, of Coweta,
arrived in this city ou Friday night
at 7 o’clock, and spent the evening
most pleasantly at the Armstrong
Hotel, where he held an informal re¬
ception among friends and admirers.
Mr. Atkinson was not expected until
later in the night and his friends had
prepared to call on him this morn¬
ing. However, bis arrival was soon
reported on the streets and scores of
enthusiastic Democrats called oo
him at once.
This morning at an early hour Mr.
Atkinson was called from the dining
room of the hotel and taking his
stand in tbelobbr held an informal
reception which lasted until tbe noon
hour. At one time a number of
prominent ladies assembled in the
hotel parlors and Mr. Atkinson had
to leave the crowds below for a little
while to go up and meet the ladies.
In tbe crowds who visited the illus¬
trious young Georgian this forenoon
there were men from every walk in
life; numbers nf the gallant old vet¬
erans of Rome ami Floyd county
were among the callers, and most of
them informed Mr. Atkinson that
while they still loved the“lostcause”
and the old comrades who wore
the gray, they belonged to tbe
fighting brigade of Democracy
and would roily to the
support of a fighting Demo¬
crat such as they knew him to b*.
There were a number of young farm¬
ers who, hearing that Mr. Atkinson
was in the city, made baste to call
on him and assure him that tbe
fathers of the boys would support
tbe sons in this campaign. Tbe
reception of tbe forenoon took the
color of a love feast and around the
“man from Coweta” old Democracy
clasped bands with young Democra¬
cy and there the fighters who have
won every campaign fought in this
county pledged support to Atkin¬
son. This afternoon Col. Atkinson
spent on tbe streets, where he met
hundreds of citizens who were eager
to clasp hands with him.
At 7 o’clock this evening Mr. At¬
kinson took the Central train for
home, expressing satisfied that himself Floyd as thor¬
oughly reputation county tbe
will sustain its in
primary and send Atkinson delegates
to tbe convention.
Tbe Rome Tribune is against Mr.
Atkinson and that makes it certain
that Gen. Evans will not carry
Floyd. For three weeks tbe Evans
boomers have been quietly working
up a club trying to commit men on
paper before the campaign issues are
known. known. The The club club may way be be organii organized,
bat its efforts to carry the banner
counties six votes to the convention
will be abortive. Put Floyd county
down in the Atkiodou column, else
yon will make a mistake.
GENERAL EVANS IN GRIFFIN,
A Pleasant Reception, But No Percep
ttble Ovation.
General Clement A. Evans arrived
here yesterday morning from Macon
and spent tbe day, going up to bis
home in Atlanta, last night. He was
met at tbe train by Col. W.” R. Han-
leiter, Capt. Geo. R. Niles and one or
two others and escorted to tbe Nelms
House. A number of citizens sailed
during the day and paid tbeir re¬
spects to the distinguished soldier,
and others be met on the streets. He
received a pleasant and cordial greet¬
ing from all, and indulged in inter¬
esting reminiscences with a few of
ttie old eoWiersf butlmpt^oce ex¬
cited little general interest and
created no perceptible enthusiasm.
Possibly it was not designed or ex¬
pected to do so, and weouly mention
it as u matter of fact.
A “petition” for an Evans clnb
bas been industriously circulated for
the last two or three days and some
signatures have been obtained; but
the principal gain made by the “pe¬
titioner” been the knowledge of
the onexfiected number of open and
pronounced Atkinson men of alleges
and occupations ia this community
as well as the number of others who
are indifferent to Evans’ candidacy.
The club will doubtless be organized,
bat it may excite so little notice its
to be like Fayetteville tbe Fayetteville News, club, of
which the itself an

gar be made abeolutely free.
