s
j Some ft w Georgia papers thst
1 are supporting Mr. Atkinson for
‘ governor are seeking t« prejudice
the people who do not reside in
the cities and towns with the
threadbare demagogic appeal that
1 the city people want Evans, but
1 the country people are fe>r Atkin
* son —Augusta Herald .
Dont you believe it sonny, the
Atkinson papers don’t know of any
city folks who are solid for Evans
except Atlanta and Augusta, and
we hare our doubts about the sol
idity of even these Evansceot
I
strongholds. The people know
that Atkinson defeated theAugua
taian for apeaker, and sat down
on the Atlanta poor house soldiers
, home, scheme, and are making due
. allowances for opposition from
these quarters.
General Evans seems to be the
almost unanimous choice of both

tell us how the general stands on

join tno Constitution and implore!
Mr. Atkinson to “come down*’ “Oh
dam —the Etowah.”
In the nomiration of General
Evans party harmony can

the election with its ranks uu- ,
broken and with the confi ience of i
a notable victory.—Constitution. '

OUR WARLIKE GOVERNOR.
Dublin New Era: The spectacle pre
rented by Governor Northen, run
ning up and down the Georgia-Fiori
da line, hat in hand, and followed by (
two or three companies of soldiers, in
his frantic efforts to shoo aw.y the
two stall-fed thugs who want to pound
each other, is extremely ludicrous.Go
back to the capital, governor;you are
making yourself extremely ridiculous
Jonesboro Enterprise: Governor
Northen went out in search of cheap
nottorety this week. We wen s irpris
. ed to learn that he hrd gone to Way
cross to prevent the Corbett-Mitel e 1
tight occuring in Georgia. His better
judgement surely didn't carry him
there. When properly viewed, thi»
conduct on the part of the governor
will necessarily be termed silly .There
was no excuse for it whatever.
Valdosta Times: Because it was re
ported that two toughs were going to
slip out of Florida into the Okefeno
kee jungles and indulge in a boxing
match,was net,in our judgment, suffi
cient reason for the governor of
Georgia to leave his post of civil duty
in Atlanta and opea military head
quaitere in Wayeross.
We do not defend or condone prize'
fighting. We are glad that there are
Uwe against it and we think the laws
ought to be enforced—by the sherffs,
as contemplated by the law.
ftI'BKRNATORIALLY SPEAKING.
Is it a crime for a young man to
announce himself a candidate for
governor of Georgia simply be
c use by reason of his age he did
not get a chance to serve in the
late war between the states?—Ro
berta Correspondent.
The State needs to elect a gov
I ernor for what he will do; no; for
• what he has done.—Woodberry
Messenger.
The true exponents of pub'ic
opinion in Georgia ar« the conn
iry newspapers aud it is significant
that ’a decided majority of the
leading weeklies have already de
clared for Atkinson for governor
No candidate in the state ever had
a more flattering support than Mr.
Atkinson has rereived thus fa
from the country press,—Newnan
Herald.
For a candidate to ask a nomi
nation at the hands of the Denao
“ cratic party because of its nearness
I to the party’s enemies is a piece of
t unpardonable impertinence which
. the party will resent in away that
will be pleasant for said candidate
> —Fort Gaines Herald
But no fight is being made upon
’ the sacred remembrances of that try-
I ing period—far from it. The fight is
for the recognition of the worth and
abilities of the younger Democrats of
the state who have demonstrated their
party zeal, and wheredy reason of
their past.training in the management
of state affairs, are full fitted to occu
py public offices. Mr. Atkinson’s pros
pects of success iu his gubernatorial
j campaign are brightening every way,
; if we take the utterances of the news
-1 papers throughout the state as an in
j dication, which are infallible indices
i of public opinion.—Columbus Led
i ger.
, Just such “boys” as Bill Atkinson j
‘ raved the state for the Democratic '
i party by r 2,000 majority in 1892.
while Gen. Evina was letting politics
severely alcne. If party allegiance
counts for anything then Atkinfoa de
serves more at the hands of the par
ty,—Senoia Enterprise.
