The Hustler-Commercial is
the only afternoon paper in
Northwest Georgia. It has the
combined circulation of the old
evening Hustler of Rome and
the Rome Daily Commercial,
and is
THE OFFICIAL GAZETTE OF

The Hustler-Commercial
has the confidence of the classes
and the masses—because it mer
its and deserves the confidence
of all its readers.
Now is the time to tell your
neighbor to quit borrowing and
enlist his name as a subscriber.
There are 362,000 army rifles
now in the government arsenals
ready for use.
Mayor Seay, we gieet you. Long
may your waves beat on the shoie
of prosperous Rome.

President McKinley wants to be

Many people think the negroes

Col. Candler makes no mis
takes in what he wiites, though
sometimes he misses the mark
when he thinks he is addressing
a gentleman.
Is the Bell Telephone Company
headed fcr the poor house. Its to
tal receipts for the fiscal year just
closed were $5,130,844, while its
expenses reached $971,170. leaving
a net balance of only $4,169,675.
Tjol ad to see a good (.company

sun.
“You cant down a laboring,
man.
Good evening, Chief Shrop
shire. How is your enemy?
Col. Candler has begunto name
the leaks, now let the “frog-jour
nals” croak and the balance of
the anti-Candler press howl.
Phil Cook is too busy these
days shaking hands and getting
over the state to make any speech
es, but the roll is called up in At
lanta he’ll be there.—Cochran
Telegraph .
Your,Uncle Allen forces the
anti-Candler element to keep all
of its war correspondent materi
al at home. And these fake cor
respondents are keeping their
“yarn” mills grinding day and
night.
No city of ten times her size
has so representative a city coun
cil . Mayor J. J. Seay has a rigl t
to feel proud of his council. And
Rome feels proud of mayor and
council and the officials selected
by them hist night.
If joint debates are so desirable,
and so much ie to be gained by
the party because of them, why
don’t Judge Atkinson and Senator
Remer get down to business. By
all means let the two handsome
candidates indulge in their pyro
technic fights. Col Candler’s ab
set.ee will make the discussions
less interesting.
Allen D. Candler, the brave
old commoner, will win out, in
spite of combinations of politi
cal tricksters and all the out-put
of all the yarn mills of all the
anti-Candler press. Your Uncle
Allen is one of the ’‘common
people.” and is backed by the
great masses—of whom he is
the chosen leader.
We believe ‘.hat Col. Candler
did right in refusing to go into a
joint discussion with Berner and
Atkinson. There is no need of
a discussion now, and it, would
lead to hitter personal feelings, of
which there already exists too
much for the safety of all.
Col, Candler will gain friends and
votes by his wise decision, —
Schley County News.
Because Col. Candler speaks of
the masses as “the great common
people” and says they are for
him why Railroad Commissioner
Atkinson says there are no “com
mon people” in Georgia, and the
Macon Telegraph has to take np
the abortive idea and defend what
Mr. Atkinson says there in an edi
torial. The anti-Candlerites are
amusing in tLeir antics.
The Hustler-Commercial
extends sympathy to the two
brave officers who were lost in
the shuffle in the re-organization
of Rome’s police force, last night.
They have served the city faith
fully, and have aright to feel
i sore over their fate. But having
made good officers they will
make good citizens, Mark that
prediction.
It has been a long, hard strug
gle, single-handed, and, though
handicapped, The Hustler
ci al has fought its way back to
solid ground. We have no ha
tred for those who betrayed us
and well nigh done us to journ
alistic death—but we do feel
deeply grateful for the timely
recognition accorded up by brave
spirits that saw and dared lend
succor.
The Rev. W. H. Weaver, pastor
of the U. B. Church, Dillsburg,
Pa., recognizee the value so
Chamberlaiu’s Cough Remedy and
■ does not hesitate to tell others
about it, “I have used Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy,” he says,
: “and find it ai exce'lent medicine
for colds, coughs and hoarsness.”

trial. Sold by Currv-Arriugton

A Washington newspaper cor
respondent. glancing over the
membership of Congress, directs
attention to a fact as remarkable
as it is interesting Out of a total
of ninety mej? in the United State
Senate, mori than one-third-or
thirty-two-are veterans of the
civil war, which ended a full
generation ago, while two of these
thirty-two, who are today actively
engaged in solving a new war prob
lem, were participants in the
struggle with Mexico more than
half a century ago. The House,
too, despite he lapse of time and
the advancement of young men
in political life has a large per
centage of men who were active
in the civil war. This is a record
of American vigor of which the
coun'ry may well be proud.

Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy,
He sums up the result as follows :
“At that time the goods were

Chamberlin’s Cough Remedy is a
household word.” It is the same
in hundreds of communities.

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
