THE ROME H? T!/ ■ IERCIAL
and invites the crowd aroind’
the corner for “refreshments.”
The refreshments proved to five
kegs of beer and those that fol
lowed Mr. DuYlehoo proceeded
to dispose of it in the, most “ap
propriate sty bn”
Re-assembling, Candidate for
Sheriff C.t np was called Mr.
: Campdid'nt t..lk long and what
be said created little enthus
iasm ,
The next speaker was Mr.
Danehoo, who a few years back
was a candidate on the populist
ticket for represenative.
Mr. Danehoo, seemed to de
sire to help Mr. Camp out and
made most of his remarks in
his favor. Among other things
he said that if Camp was elect
ed sheriff and an old man or a
boy made a mistake he would’nt
get after him much but would
help him out etc.
Mr. Dunnehoo spoke about
about 20 minutes, then Capt. L.
Lytle, one of the lead horses in
“The Young Mens’ Democratic
(?) Club,” with black balls and
secret words, was [introduced.
Capt. Lytle learned to speak in
Rome several years ago when
he ran as “economical candi
date” for councilman from the
Fifth warn, and was defeated.
He made a pretty good speech
and many gestures, but before
he got through the crowd began
to disperse. When Capt Lytle
got through the band played
another tune in the hopes of
keeping the crowd together, but
the Lindale folks had become
tired, very tired, and were fast
breaking away, when Mr. San
fa rd suggested that ’twas best to
get back to town. Back they
came, arriving in Rome before
8 :30.
Whether or not all the beer
was disposed of is not known
W hetlier or not it was left there
to be feasted on by a crowd of
I boys today is not known. But
one thing is certain, the best
people of Lindale are opposed
to such political beer drinking
meetings, and for that reason
did not encourage the crowd
’and the beer. This is cne of
the many meetings of the “re
(formers.” There have been
; others similar to this one, and
yet he democratic executive
i committee, composed largely of
; Sanford men, said that no mon

POINTED TO’IONS
And “.Broken Observations”
That A*e Based on Facts.
Thevileand eon e np’ablo ef
fort of the new reformers m tre
Tribune of yeererday, to injn e
the good name of John M. Van
diver by dragging his private char
•ctei through the ‘cnm and til h
of this unperelled campaign, in >
annals of Floyd county, ouvht to !
be scored and repudiated by ev
ery loval citizen and honest vol r
in the county.
After making a vain and fruit
less t ff rt to find anything in his
public record out of ,;bich they
c ’u'd 'make votes for their pet I
candidate, they have to resort to
the bare, vilbaneous had and di re
pulab'e method of wilfully stan
dering the good name of one 1
of Floyd county’s best citizens, n
order to bolster the sirfcing ship
of th dr pet an 1 I? tier >f a for
lorn hop ■.
Why say, “John M . Vandiv. r
h s always lived an esy life,
t. .king into his own pockets , th
uion i y»of the lahon g masses” if
it was not a desperate *ff rt to
ea ch the labor vile, at th- ex
peuse of the good and hoicst life
->f John M V indiver
Why didn’t the reformers say
in that same connection that the
money, and all the money that j
John M. Vandiv< r took from the
“laboring masses” was returned
in helping the poor needy
and depressed in every con
dition of life? Why didn’t they
tell the people that John M.
Vandiver is almost peniless him
self because of his genneral bi -
nevolence and charity to all
worthy objects, both in the
church and out of it, while the
men of the reform ticket, who
have stood on the corners of the
streets and in the amen corners
of the churches, have grown rich
on the hard earnings of the
poor —have grabbed their thous
ands from the depressed and
toiling, in one hundred per cent
of the money taken from these
same “laboring classes?
Why do these reformers lug
in the Bridges’ bond matter just
at this particular time? Why did
they not bring it sooner in the
campaign, so all the facts might
be fairly and squarely met and
discussed before the people?
Why do they seek to cover up
the truth —still ap ealing to the
prejudices of the people? Why
did they not say in their attiu k
on Mr. Vandiver, that the audi
tor who was appointed by the
court to settle the Bridges mat
ter found only $2900.00 instead
of $5500 00; and that exceptions
were filed to that decision of
auditor because he did not allow
$1991.15 over payments in one
item and $399.00 credited by
the state and allowed by the
committee and auditor? \\ iiy
didn’t the reformers tell the dear
people that the case of Bridges
and his bondsmen is still pend
ing in the courts —h s net yet
been tried and the <.reat proba
bility is that when it is tried it
will be found that they are not i
liable for
