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 City of Rome
The City Marshal
The Sheriff of Floyd County
The Ordinary of Floyd Co,
The II ustlkr-Com m ercial
has the confidence of the classes
and the masses—because it mer
its and deserves the confidenc*
of all its readers.
Now is the time to tell your
. neighbor to quit borrowing and
enlist his name as a subscriber.
The cry of “persecution” will
not answer argument.
Pei haps Capt. Featherston wish
es he had’nt gaid it.
Oh no, Commissioner Feather
ston is no part zan I
Does Comtnrssioner Featherstcn
really believe flat a laborer is not
worthy his hire?
Stick to the facts and the
mud-slinger will finxi you invul
nerable.
Let everybody stick to the
facts and keep as kool as they
kau.
Let the people remember the
mud-slinger and the slanderer
and give them their deserts on
June 6th.
John W. Maddox grows more
popular every day—because of
the enemies he has made.
Poor old Montejo, the Spanish
admiral-without-a flee, was not
killed, ae reported at .Manila, even
if he was reported slain.
The gold-hug press coi tnuws its
r-lentlesa war on Al’en D, Candler*
Your Uncle Al'en is fortunate.
Again we ask, why should the
people be expected to stampede
ill over one another in a mad
effort to believe that Col. Feath
erstone is light and all the
members of all the old boards
were wrong. The “reformers”
have let up on their cry of “dis
gorge.” They have been driven
from the field at many points
and are strictly on the defensive
along all the ground they still
hold. “Disgorge,” indeed !
‘Disgorge” what? If there is
my “disgorging” necessary
would not the “reformers” have
long since filed suit to force
their claims >f Would not the
‘reformers” have sprung this
alleged sensation either two or
four years ago when it was
younger?
Sam Jones’ attack on Judg
Maidox bears the ear-marks o
a concerted action and under
standing between himself and
Col. Watt Harris. Sam endorses
Wart, and as they have been
cimrades in the gold-bug camps
in the past, why nothing else
could be expected. Watt’s
speech in Rome —re. orted by
no newspaper—and Sain’s let
ter m an Atlanta paper show that
chose twain—this sweet pair
rom Bartow—are allies in the
fight on John W . Maddox. Let
them do their worst. Maddox
will \vin by a splendid majority.
Mark that prediction.
And now it turns out that in
the cry for a “disgorge” “the
mule blowed fust.” Noone has
asked the “reform organ” to
“disgorge” trade edition fees
paid by the county commission
ers—fees that paper may have
earned,but the payment of which
no provision of law covered .
Perhaps the “reform organ” has
decided to be consistent about
this “disgorging” business, and
will insure its glasshouse before
throwing any more stones.
Rev. Psalm P. Jones of Bartow
apaounces himself a supporter of
Col. Watt Harris of Bartow and
proceeds to make war on John W.
Maddox, the crave Georgian who
says he will tuffer defeat rather
than desert his post of duty. It
will b 6 remembered that John W.
Maddox is the one Georgiy Judge
who had tbe Rev. Psauiuel sum
uaoneed before a grand jury— and
that Mr. Jones didnt know all he
had talked about.
Col. Watt Harris did make a
complete failure in his effort to
draw the “reformers” to bis stan
dard. by proceeding to s'ap “ring
stere” in the. face. Col. Harris be
ing desperate, however. and suf
fering from vertigo at the same
time, is to be excused in a measure
especially as the “reformers” res
fused to follow their chief leader,
Floyd county remaids solid and
all fair-minded democrats in the
Seventh will.stand by the brave
man who stands to his post of
duty while his country is passing
through this crucial moment.
The “Reform” organ has beef
driven fr >m its specified state
ments and now dors battle for
“reform” under the banner of
“glittering generalities.” When
not printing non de plume com
munications it is quoting from
mysterious individuals in Alabama
Surely the people are onto theme
form” organ's tactics—and tie
“reformer” knoxs it.
When General J. R. Lincoln, a
former gal lant Confederate, is cl o
sen to be lowa’s brigadier general l
it must be admitted that th.
country is thoroughly reunited ;
reconstructed, says the St. Louis
Globe Democrat.
Judge George Harris seems to
have ambusjaded the reformers
and completely put to rout Capt.
C. N, Featherston, the present
board of county commiesioi er j .
The primaries will soon bo
jo\er, and when the nominations
I are made, the “reformers” will
of course fall into line, eat the
crow they have so industriously
fattened on so many dainty
morsels of slander, and go to
work with the people for the
election of t he people’s nominees
—the “ring” candidates.
