The Gainesville Candler club is booming. The Cracker will Read it! give you the news Colonel Candler will speak in Home in a few days. Will Rome h o w 1 ? __ The blowing up of the United States battleship- Maine was a fearful affair. Candler and Atkinson are both clean men—but the people w T ant Candler for Governor. The gubernatorial campaign is assuming a gay aspect. Candler and Atkinson will have a warm time.

Candler published last week, has created a furore in political circles all over the State. A numbei o Governor Atkinson’s friends have been offended and predict that that.letter will do him incalcula ble harm. Colonel Candler, how ever, is sitting serenely in the stern of the boat , and is sawing wood and saying nothing, though it is plainly evident that the “one- eyed plow boy of Pigeon Roost knows whither he is drifting and has given the boys to understand he knows when and where to strike to count. From all over the State he is receiving telegrams and letters re assuring him of support and bear ing to him the message that Can dler stock is climbing up and is now way above par. Though the letter, perhaps, was not good pol itics it certainly did stir up the boys and gave them to understand its author had the nerve to say what he thought and would meet them and fight them on it any day. Here’s to Candler, and 80,000 majority 1 PENDERGRASS. Pendergrass was full of visitors Sunday. Following is a partial list: Missee Minnie Webb and Clia Lahatte and Messrs.
