The Evans papers have bragged
considerably about their majority in

have lied about Atkinson’s majority
in Carroll, which was 850.

Gen. Gordon wna elected against
the efforts of the Atlanta Constitu*
tlon and now he proposes to turn In
and aid the Constitution against
those who elected him. This is a
very floe exhibition of ingratitude.
The Americus Times-Reoorder has
copied an article from the Atlanta
Journal without criticizing it and
gives it the endorsement of an edi¬
torial head. Is Bascom tryiog to
coax the Journal back to the support
of Evans?
C. W. Hancock, who states that he
is getting np a history of Southwest
Georgia, says: “There may be some
Atkinson men in Georgia, bnt so far
we have failed to meet them in our
travels,” Mr. Hancock seems to pos¬
sess sufficient lack of information
to rnake^a historian of the first class.
The Savannah Dispatch is well es¬
tablished in the opinion that the
money of the Atlunta ring, tbs aid
of the Populists nor the war cry of a
Gordon can stay the Atkinson tide.
The Democrats of Georgia have
minds of their own and know where
they are at.
The Atlanta Constitution is now
plAyingthe “me-too” game of its
candidate in trying to makeitap-*
pear that it stands in the same po¬
sition as Mr. Atkinson in standing
up to the party and its head. The
idea of the Constitution standing up
to the president is too rich to be di¬
gested if any one should be foolish
enough to swallow it.
The desperation of the Evnns
cause may be judged from the fact
that* General Evans Is booked to
make three speeches in Stewart coun-
ty next week: at Omaha on the night
cf June 4th, at Lumpkin on Jane
5th and at Richland on the night of
the 5tb. It looks pretty serious
when a candidate has to ineke such
strenuous exertions to carry his
home county.
The Columbus Enquirer-Sun says
that It will not come with good grace
from Gen. Gordon to stamp this
State for Gen. Evans for the purpose
of arousing the people to a proper
sense of gratitude to the old soldier.
They do not need such an arousal.
Gen. Gordon is himself a living mon¬
ument of their gratitude. Georgia
has followed him with love and hon¬
ors all through b.is public career. He
certainly can trust them now, and
he should remain at his post where
they hays called him . x- —

AN OFFICIAL ESTIMATE.
We have made fruitless and una¬
vailing effort to s<cure the list of
hundred counties which Gen, Evans
baa constantly claimed are at bis
back. When ha waa here a few day#
ago we did ttnd that be claimed Mus¬
cogee. which went against him when
the teat came.
Now we have done n little better
and secured horn a citizen of Madi¬
son a nearly complete list of the
counties that act this week with the
predictions which Gen. Evans made
to him as to the way they will act.
It will be interesting to compare this
list with the result at the f nd of the
week.
The conoties which Geo. Evans ex¬
pects to carry this week are Lowndes,
Randolph, Fulton, Hancock, Dade,
Putnam and McIntosh.
He concedes to Atkioson the conn-
ties of Echols, Coweta, Polk and
Jones.

A Pie* for Party Unity.
Macon Telegraph.
In his speech at Monlieello yester¬
day Mr. Atkinson repeated in more
connected form what he has said
heretofore In various addresses in
regard to the proper attitude of
Democrats toward the Democratic
administration. As is well known
Mr. Atkinson does not himself agree
tboroogbly with the administration,
differing in opinion with the presi¬
dent in regard to the proper method
of patting the currency of the coun¬
try on a bimetallic basis; but be is
not for that reason an enemy of the
administration. On the contrary
he is its friend, and believes every
Democrat ought to be
We are glad Mr. Atkinson has seen
fit to deal with this matter. It is of
the utmost importance to the party.
The attempt has been made daring
the last year to set np a certain in
terpretation of the platform as tbe
single test of a man’s Democracy,
and, trying the administration by
that test, to make it infamous in the
eyes of Southern Democrats. The
men and newspapers making this at
tempt hare refused to tolerate any
difference of opiniou and have used
all their energies in an effort to con¬
centrate popular attention on the
issue thus raised.
* The effect has undoubtedly been
bad. It has bred dissension among
Democrats and has helped result, the wheth¬ Peo
pie’s party. This last
er intended or not, was tbeinevitable
result of so interpreting the Demo¬
cratic platform as to make it mean
precisely what the Populist platform
indisputably means, of insisting that
this interpretation was the only test
of true Democracy, of forcing the
issue thus raised into a prominence
that obscured all other political
questions, and, .while doing these
things, of constantly reviling the
Democratic administration for al¬
leged treachery,to the party. Had
these things been done only by Ko-
publican newspapers they would not
have injured the party, but when
done by men and newspapets con¬
stantly protesting that they were
Democrats of the straitest sect, they
could not fail of effect in creatingdis-
edntent nnd doubt among Demo¬
crats.
Mr. Atkinson’s speech was a manly
plea for party harmony, and in mak¬
ing it he sacrifices nothing of his
personal independence. He asks of
uo other Democrat that he make
such a sacrifice, but simply points
out good reasons why Democrats
should come together and act in un¬
ion for the good of the country.

there, post haste, at nigbt, on bis
way to Clinton, where he spoke yes¬

for both candidates. If Atkinson
holds or increases his lend, it will
make his work easier hereafter. If
Gen. Evans can make any considera¬
ble gain, or if he could again get
even abreast of his opponent, it
would brighten his prospects for ul¬

The Contest Practically Settled.

The Commercial is still of the opin
ion that the contest for the nomina¬

unusual conditions to turn the tide
tbatjscems to have set in for Atkin¬
son. He hns blade a race that is
nothing short of phenomenal—and
io view of the great confidence that
was felt over tbe candidacy of Gen
Evans, it would seem that he has
made a race which, this early in the
campaign, indicates certain success
Ten days ago the Commercial said
that the chances were decidedly in
his favor. Today we believe ffiat !t
is almost impossible to defeat him.

Fall fiat of Line.
*__•
Fort Valley, Ga., May 30— [Spe-
Hal.’]—Tbe fact that Houston coon-
ty will go for Atkinaon fs no longer
doubted by Gen. Evans friends, who
have ait along claimed it by about
two to one, but since many of them
were at tbe largest gathering
that was ever held in the county
last Saturday, at Centerville, where
they found only about 35 votes for
Evans oat of between 450 and 500
voters, they concede it. This infor¬
mation coopted with tbe landslide in
favor of Atkioson by Mhe action of
tbe coontiee last Saturdav, in which
primaries were beid, forces Evans’
friends here to almost abandon their
choice and take np Atkinson’s cause.
Fvans’ friends do not deny that they
are somewhat surprised at Atkin¬
son’s strength, and many of them
say it is useless for tbe general to
contest longer for gubernatorial
honors. ..... ' .. ... . -
One thing that is causing Geu.
Evans to lose to such an extent is
letters that are being sent out from
Stewart county—bis native county-
all over the State. Following is a
sentence, Qr clause in them:
“Gen. Evans is losing friends in
some of the counties because be re
fuses to meet Mr. Atkinson on the
stump and substantiate the false
charges he (Evans) permits his
friends to print and circulate over
the counties to act. This is a cow
ardiy aod underhand way to con¬
duct a campaign for the high office
of governor. If the charges agjainst
Mr Atkinson are true, Gen. Evans
ought to accept Mr. Atkinson’s chal¬
lenge to substantiate them.
“Is it right for a man who is run¬
ning for governor to become a party
in such methods? The people are
not looking for false charges from a
minister.”
This is the reference in the letter
from Gen. Evans’ old home. We do
not only find him mingling with
those who circulate false charges,
but he has never said yet that be
disapproves of the use of money and
sajing* whiskey is his behalf, but dodges by
“It is done without my
knowledge.” in the lead
Well, Atkinson is far to
the surprise of many confident Evans
boomers, and will stay thereuntil the
campaign is ended.

unfair tricks his opponents resort l o.

Sharpsburg, o’clock in their tbe future home, at
four afternoon, accom¬

where an elegant sapper was given.
Miss Clara wus one of Drewryville’s

Candidates are -biling” oof- of

is that for an “officer for the people?”
That remioda me of what occurred
in tbe canvass of tbe lamented
Judge Stewart, On one occasion
when one of tbe 5th congressional
district counties was a prohibition
county, a day or two before tbe elec¬
tion, without the knowledge of Judue
Stewart (for I know he always bit
terly opposed whiskey voting) there
tolled ioto the depot several barrels
of whiskey, labeled “Stewart whis¬
key.” Tbe Stewart prohibition sup¬
porters rejected the fraud with scorn
and re-shipped tbe vile stuff back to
where it came from, and doubtless
by, that grand act saved the county
for Judge Stewart. Geor¬
How can Evans men all over
gia, who are Christian prohibition¬
ists, read- the disgusting victory won
in Hall county with money and
whiskey, and still vote for Gen. Ev
ans is a mystery to me. In the Herald
and Advertiser of May 25tb, read
boi torn 3d column, editorial page,
what Bro. Y. H. Thompson, one
among the best Methodists in New-
nan. hns to say about the “disgust¬
ing spectacle.” Is not this “whiskey
boodle” voting degrading to the
“grand, good. Confederate veteran
preacher” who has preached for 30
years to a strictly prohibition de¬
nomination of Chiistians? If it is.
will it be any honor to Gen. Evbds if
he should be nominated and elect¬
ed governor of this fair State
of ours? Thinking voters reflect.
Whither are we drifting ?
Can’t we elect a governor honorably?
Must we as professed followers of
t'hiist, resort to all the dirty, de
grading devices of the dirty, smutty,
petty politician, and through his
dirty device lower nnd degradeGod’s
church simply to elect a governor?
Chosen by that dirty, smutty crowd
from “God’s elect,” again I appeal
to Christians of every order. \\ hith¬
er are we drifting, into whatcesspool
of degradation and disgrace are we
lending a helping hand to degrade
and disgrace God’s cause, God’s
church and God’s ministers? Stop;
reflect; think; pray to God for guid¬
ance. Ye Christians are not of this
world; ve are God’s chosen to bear
the light. Again I say, whither are
we drifting?

nNANC1AL AF FAIRS.
Utrtd Grow* Lew and Lw In the Treasury
Causing Aaxt.tr.
Washington, May 29.—The present
depleted condition of the treasury and
the discouraging outlook for the future
are a source of considerable anxiety to
♦he oflidals of the treasury department.
Already the gold reserve which had
been brought by the last bond issue up
to $107,390,842, has been reduced by ex¬
portations since March 10 to less than
$80,000,000, with no indications that the
foreign demand will cease until it has
reached a much lower point. With the
exception of the gold reserve, and count¬
ing every available dollar in the vaults
in the treasury, the government today
has less than $80,000,000 with which to
meet its obligations. Nor does the fu¬
ture show any signs of encouragement.
On the contrary, the probable deficit
of $6,000,000 for the month of May is
likely to be increased by $15,000,000
during the two succeeding months. The
closest calculation that can now be
made shows that the deficit for the fiscal
year ending June 30, will be approxi¬
mately $74,500,000. Close estimates
place the receipts for May at $22,500,000
and the disbursements $88,500,000. For
June the receipts are likely to be abont
$24,000,000 with the expenditures $26,- for
000,000, making the total receipts
the fiscal year $291,509,749, and the dis¬
bursements $365,757,197. While it is
confidently believed tnat the receipts
for July will increase somewhat, yet it
is much more certain that the disburse¬
ments will increase.
A conservative estimate of the deficit
for July is $12,000,000, this increase be¬
ing accounted for by the payment of
small obligations, including about $7,-
500,000 in interest that mature at the
beginning of the fiscal year. Dnring
June the pension payment will amount
to about $10,500,000 and dnring July
nearly $11,750,000. receipts and
The exact amount of ex¬
penditures for the present month and
