The Atlanta Daily News is
authority for the statement that
there has very recently been dis¬
covered in Ga., Wilkes Co., the
richest gold mine in the world, the
ore assaying $22,640 per ton with
$300,000 worth of gold in sight, in
a very small pit. Georgia has been
styled the empire state of the
south, but if such developments
continue she wall soon have to be
called the Empire State ot the
Union. We have no doubt that
the hills of our own county are
streaked with the precious metal.

were following Bryan were honest

the democrats have turned their
backs on the fusiomsts aud also
Mr. Bryan the fusionist says there
is no place for them except in the
straight, populist party. Why
your own Uncle Allen, just a lew

not in it any more. This for the
proves that Mr. Bryan and the
Kansas City platform a re to be
abandoned, and the Battle o-f 1904
