McDonough, Ga., March 27, 1896.
Governor Atkinson's Decision.
There has been a considerable stir
in State politics rvceutly over the re
port that Governor Atkiusou would
retire at the expiration of bis present
term, to accept a flattering business
offer. He has finally decided to offer
tor re election, however, and every
thing in that direction is again quiet.
The following from the Atlanta
Journal is a flattering evidence of the
high esteem in which Governor Atkin
son is held in the State:
“At a great sacrifice of his personal
interests, Governor Atkinson has de
clined a business proposition and will
go before the State convention as a
candidate for renomination. Of course
he will have no opposition, and it is
gratifying to know that the party will
be spared a coutest for the guberna
torial nomination. We have already
quite enough friction among Demo
crats in Georgia. If Governor Atkin
son had declined to be a candidate for
another term, tl e situation would have
been complicated still further There
will be perfect harmony in the State
convention on one subject at least
Governor Atkinson has proven himself
an able leader and will be of great
service to the party iu Georgia as the
head of its ticket in the coming cam
paign.
“His determination to accept this
responsible position has been received
with profound satisfaction by Demo
crats of all shades of opinion and iu
every section of the State. We do
not hesitate to predict bis election this
year by a majority largely in excess of
that he received in 1894.”
U. S. Senator.
The question of an expression of a
choice for U. S. Senator by the people
is being generally discussed, and in this
connection we publish the following
from Mr. Crisp, which explains it
self :
Raul Turner, Chairman Democratic
Executive Committee Henry County
Ga.—Dear Sir :
Accompanying this is a letter re
ceutly addressed by me to our State
Executive Commilee. For the reasons
therein given, and for others that will
occur to you, I respectfully suggest
that at the primary election to be held
on the Gth day of June next the Dem
ocratic voters of each county be accord
ed the privilege of expressing by bal
lot their choice for the office ot United
States Senator for the term begiiiuing
March the 4th, 1897.
Throughout our State, and the coun
try generally, there is a growiug senti
ment in favor of the election of Sena
tors by the people. The adoption of
the plan indicated will respect this sen
timeut and practically reach the end
desired.
1 know yon will acquit me of any
improper purpose in making this Bug
gestion when you reflect that the only
possible effect of affirmative action
upon it will be to remit to the people
themselves the duty of filling by a di
reel vote one of the most important
offices created for their benefit.
With assurances of respect and the
utmost confidence, 1 am, truly and sin
cerely, yours, Cham.es F. Crisp.

Corn plautiog time is at hand and
the farmers are about ready to go to

Guano planting nearly over.
Mr. Editor, I am watching McDon

the amount of candidates already in
the field.
I was very glad to learn tbat Rural

his mind still wandering Poor fel
low, some minister of the gospel seems
to hear heavy upon hit mind. lam
fully satisfied if that humble divine,
who ever he may be, if Rural will
point him out, will offer one faithful
prayer in Rural’s behalf. I can’t see
what any reverend gentleman had to
do iu bringing about Rural’s demented
condition; neither can I see what the
ticket agent of a circus show bad to do
with it. Rural reminds me very much
of a clown in a circus show, always
bobbing up where he has no business.
Rural cries out one at a time, gentle
men, so I shall take his advice aud
leave it. with him aud Detinis, as I
don’t wish to waste my amuuition on
such small game as Rural.
I would say for 11. B. of Tussahaw’s
benefit that Mr. I. B. Pritchett’s an
nouncement for coroner has been run
ning for several weeks. A Iso Mr.
YY ells, of Hampton, is iu the race.

It is said tbat the spot where Jef
ferson Davis was captured near Ir
wiuviile, is visited daily by Northern
people who, if they were allowed to do
so, would cut down and carry away all
the timber near the place.

Old Boreas rode a high horse two
days last week.
Corn planting has begun in earnest
now.
Webb Mason rode a bicycle to
cburce Sunday.
Mrs. .lames Jeffries died at her j
home near Beeisheba Saturday, and
her remains were taken to County
Line iu Butts county for interment
Sunday. Mr. Jeffries is but a young
man, not loug been married and his
mother passed away but a few weeks
before his wife.
Miss Miunie Thompson, t«acher of
Mt. Bethel school, is away attending
the bedside of her sick father in New
ton county.
Mr. David Stewart li.-d of pneu
monia at his home near Hopewell
church in Newton county last Wednes
day. Mr. Stewart had numerous rel
atives and friends in this section.
Miss Mary Mapp Willingham is
spending this week with sick relatives
over in Newton.
The familiar face of Miss Arrie
Davies, formerly of this neighborhood,
but now of Newton county, was seen
iD the Chngregation at Mt. Bethel Sun
day.
Miss Lizzie Lewis is reported quite
sick at this writing.
Mr. Noah Lane says he wants
enough people to register to ebet Tom
Stewart to the senate. Mr. Lane has
been affiliating with the populists, but
now says he is for the right man party
or no party. He says if the republi
can congress should give Tom Watson
Mr. Black’s seat iu congress it would
only be for the purpose of weakening
the democrats, and after they had seat
ed Mr. Watson they would just let him
set, and they would pay no more at
tention to him than democrats would.
This is com.noti sense talk, and shows
that even populist leaders cannot “fool
all the people all the time.” It also
indicates that “truth is mighty and will
prevail.”
Rev. Mr. Bowden talked on intem
perance at Mt. Bethel Sunday, and
though he took rather oxtrtme posi
tions he gave the youug people some
excellent advice.
Owing to the winterlike weather
that has prevailed of late, it seems that
the Epworth League seed that Brother
Kendall sowed on his last round at Mt.
Bethel, like the early planted coru,
have germiuated rather slow, though I
understand a small portion of the league
met at Mr. W. A. Hooten’e last Satur
day uight and appointed a meeting for
next Saturday night at Mr. W. L.
Wynn’s. The Mt. Bethel weekly
prayer meeting has been changed to
Sunday uight.
Populist papers are trying hard to
convince us that are still democrats
that we are only such because our
daddies were. Well, it w uld be well
if more Southern men were what their
daddies were, but some men have other
reasons than this for being democrats.
According to my best recollections my
father was a whig, but he and whigism
were contemporaries and both lived
before the war. But I recently beard
a prominent democrat give his reason
for being one thusly: “I made a
pretty start,” said be, “to become a
third party man, hut was badly spoiled
iu making.” “At the organization of
the allitftice,” he continued, “I jumped
iu, iu good faith and high hopes, and
soon blowed in what spare change 1
had on the ‘noble order.’ My neigh
borhood at the time was badly in need
of a school house. I shared heartily
iu the desire to have one, but was
more concerned ab<mt it because it
would afford us a (dace for our lodge
meetings, for it was iu them we expect
ed to fiud a big bonanza. I had on
hand a lot of building material. I said
to the brethren, let’s use it to build a
school alliance house, and you may
have time to pay me for your several
parts of it. This we did, the material
costing me about SIOO 00, of which I
finally received about $22, and when I
began to look arouud for my faithful
brethreu, they had all took refuge iu
the third party aud were beckoning
to me to come in, exclaiming ‘Eureka’
we have found it.” Rural.
A Valuable Prescription.
Editor Morrison, of YYorthiugtou,
lud., “Suu,” writes: “You have a
valuable prescription in Electric Bit
ters, aud I can cheerfully recommend
it for constipation aud sick headache,
aud as a general system tonic it lias no
equal.” Mrs. Annie Stehle, 2625
Ci ttage Ave., was all run down,
could not eat nor digest food, bad a
backache which never left her and felt
tired aud weary, but six bottles of
Electric Bitters restored ber health
and renewed her strength. Prices 50

Politics are very quiet in this com
munity. We hardly ever hear it men
tioned, but it is an old saying that still
water runs deep We are studying and
thinking and trying to settle ous minds
together, and all be solid for the best
man and when the time comes we will
be in the fight. It seems that we will
have lots of candidates to select from.
Weil, we like for every man who wants
an office to say so, and it helps the
editor, to ; but we favor a nominating
convention and letting the people pick
out their best men and go out and hunt
them, and ask them if they will accept
the nomination like they did in
George Washington’s time, wbeu the
people held a convention and nominat
ed him for president and a committee
was si nt to see him and he was found
in the country busy on his farm.
Times are so different now a days.
We will suggest a few names which
we thiuk are some of the best men in
the county. We believe in all parts
sharing office. We offer for si nator
T. A Ward, of Stockbiidge. There
is no better man in the county for the
senate. For ordinary, W. M. Combs,
who lives right across the county near
Locust Grove. But we will stop in
McDonough and take H. M. Toleson
for sheriff, W. H. Bryaut for deputy.
Then we move up in the sixth and get
G. E. Wise for tax receiver and B. 0.
Bright for collector. Now we leave
the other officers for some one else to
suggest. Abram.
