SMITH Editor and Proprietor. SUBSCRIPTION $1 PER YEAR Entered at the Covington Postoffice as Second-Class Mail Matter. Covington, Ga., Nov., 8, 1905. A Big Following. It is a noticeable fact that those, or many of them, who are opposing Clark Howell for governor, are the same ducks who opposed William Jeuniug Bryan for president. They stabbed Bryan in the back, and now, when the opportunity offers are putting the blade into Howell. And the among them is the Atlan¬ ta Journal. And what is more, every white and black republican in the state i9 patting the Journal ou the back with encouragement (no cash) for the sole pursose ot disorganizing and discouraging the democratic party in Georgia.— Fitzgerald Leader. If Hoke Smith gets the anti Bryan vote as charged, and gets the populist vote as charged, aud gets the republican vote as charged and then gets the mugwump vote us charged, it seems to us he will be hogging more than one man’s share.—Moultrie Observer. Yes, but think of the crime that Hoke is guilty of in permitting these republicans to pat the Jour¬ nal on the back. Oh! the way they are putting the blade into Howell is a caution.—Fitzgerald Enterprise. Throwing Stones in Meriwether, Two Meriwether county citizens, in a coloquy, became interesting. One was so good that lie could not Bupport the Hon. Hoke Smith for governor with his hotel bar repu¬ tation. “Well,” said the other, ••don’t you know that we have a hotel bar of our own down here at Warm Springs.” ‘‘Better pass that matter,” said the anti-Hoke man. ‘‘Aint Meriwether a tem perance county, full of Christian people? How came us to have a hotel bar?” said the other. “One of our legislators, out of the good¬ ness of his heart thought every hotel ought to have a bar; aud, by the way, I hear he is now opposing lion. Hoke Smith, and like your¬ self, is greatly troubled on the bar matter.” “Ab!” said the anti Hoke man, “aiut we 111 a pretty pickle. Who was our representa¬ tive who did us this great wrong?” The other fellow with a merry twinkle in his eye said. ‘’You ask brother Warner Hill and Henry Revill. They can tell you, or if they wont do it, look in the house journal of a few years back and you can easily see.” “Well,” concluded the anti-Hoke maa, “I think we had better brush before our own door before we go further against Hoke Smith.” The other “Meryite” chucked his friend a little and said, “Let me tell you something; it is ever thus. When you hear a mau speak ill against Hoke Smith about the bar he has nothing in the world to do with, you wiU'fiud his door needs sweeping before just as the Meriwether Warm Springs bar. No friend of temperance or honest anti-prohibitioust cares a fig about these slanders. There is no tem¬ perance issue in this campaign,and they know it, and this little at¬ tempt to squelch reform in Geor¬ gia wout work with sensible peo¬ ple.”—Middle Georgia Farmer. Hoke made “Plain Dick” look like a nickel with a hole in at Monticello Monday. - T _^W. £*-£* BWOT M rmw ^teia ^^ w LEGAL ADVERTISEMENTS - ^ FOR NOVEMBER SALES..-*^-'' p xsssss^sisgstsss n ass sa as KBSis CITATION.
