A novel toboggan slide has been built across the frozen river Neva at St. Petersburg, partly for pleasur* and mainly for convenience in cross ing the river.

The Macon Telegraphjis easily one •f the best “News“ papers in the south and when it comes to a good solid editorial page, chock full of the best in the market, it has no superiors. The Telegraph is no sooner—but|gets there with both feet on schedule time. Why should democrats join a club to fight one democrat against anothei democrat? Atkinson men are form ing no clubs, they are willing to wai and know the fight, to hear b-uh can didates speak, and vote for the bes' man of the two in the primary and then for the nominee of the demo cratic p irty in the great battle. Why are the Evans iren organizing? an thry not more than doub ful of theii chances if the fight is left to the people. purely roLiriCA]/ That great big Rome Evans club was able to meet and organize in the small office o r the Rome Tribune the other night without any inconven ience to itself or to the working fore, of the office, all of wh< m were pre* ent.—Griffin News. Yes, Mr. Meyerhardt worked it up ’.o the organization point and now he is working like a beaver to keep i _,rowmg, but already signers hav. seen tl.at the object of the club is t ’ tie ti ere h mds ’ and are dropping off. Mr. Atkinson may learn, when it i too late, that he lias made a political b»eak in talking against the SoldierV Home. Wait until the question is tail iy presented.—Atlanta Commercial Tn‘, tut, B ackbnrn, get out side of Atlanta a few minutes and hear how, che old vets score the Gate Cit poo hou? e scheme. Why if that ‘‘Soldier’r hon e break’’ were the issue, the Al lan a candidate would get only a cor pora-’a guard and is composed of “bi tter nilk rangers” at that. Harry Hill had hardly joined Bere'ford at Gress, when Atlanta is invaded hv Pu ican Clark's fe male minstrel 4, it >w fortunate for han. a'.tu , innocent Harry that he ' had been removed from terepta tion. “Beecher said som» good things. Among some of his choice hits is this: ‘lt is net work that kill* men ; it is worry . Work is healthy ; you can hardly put more on a man | than he can baar. But worry is rust upon the blade. It is not movement that destroys the ma chinery. but friction.” Harry Hill, more a victim of his own ingratitude and prodigality than he is guilty of ths overt act of forgery, will spend the five years of his sentence at the Gresa Lum ber Company’s work in Wilcox county. Harry and Beresford will be a brace o f high-flyers which have been very neatly winged in the Georgiacourta.—Walton News. A Connecticut court is trying to decide whether oysters are “per sonal property” or “real es'ate.” That is like a girl’s answer, it de pends. — Simetimea when a fellow swallows a raw one he thinks its ‘ personal property.” but a moment later when the bivalve has done the Jonah act and become an es cape—valve you find the “subject’, considerably mixed with “real es tate.” THE OPENING SPEECH. Macon Telegraph : ‘‘The speech in which W. Y. Atkinson epened his campaign was entirely credit able to him. He was more than courteous in his allusions to Gen. Evans —whose high standing as a gentleman and Christian minister nobody disputes—and perfectly frank in his treatment of public questions. It cannot fail to make a favorable impression on all who read it.” “Mr. Atkinson makes a good be ginning Already there is evidence on every hand ’hat his candidacy is recived with increasing favor by the people. There xvill bt? more evidence o! the same kind as the compaign progresses. He ha •, we believe, a majority of the papers of the State with him now, and he will have a majority of the Democrats with him when the final test come, un less all signs fail.” Columbus Enquirer Sun : It mus'. be said of Mr. Atkinson’s speech that it was broad, conservative and patriotic, Tnere was nothing in it to irritate Democrats or to in crease the differences which un fortunately already’ exist.” “Altogether Mr, Atkinson has made a good start qu Lib canvass, and seems to have made a favora ble impression.” Augusta Herald: “W® congratu late Mr, Atkinson ou his tribute to ms oppou *ut and on his words o commendation to Mr. Cleveland. >lr Atkinson has thrown the cam paign ou a high plane,” Atlanta Corr. Macon Telegraph: W. Y. Atk neon’s speech at Eorsjth yesterday, opening the campaign for the gubernatorial jonnnation, was read and dis cussed with a good deal of inter, st u Atlanta today. ‘‘The local press is united i > support ng Gen. Evans, and both papers make it appear that there isn’t an Atkinson man in sight But the interest takwn today makes 4 very difference showing. Col. Atkinson has always hud a great many warm friends here, and the general run of comment since pul ication of . his opening speech clearly shows that he has a good drat more ►trength iu this, the Evans stronghold, than the gener al’s c.mpaign managershave ever been willing to recognize- “Instead of arousing resentment Col. Atkinson’s arraignment of the Atlanta ring has made him new friends am 9 ig that class who do not take an active part in politics further than the vote, who recog nize fully that Col. Atkinson mows what he is talking about when he shells the ring politicians who dominate the city, and the State as well, whenever tlev cau,“ —Griffin News. THE GUBERNATORIAL RACE, When Atkinson “comes down 1 ’ i. will be out of the governors man sion, i fter serving bis s ate faith u’ly as chief executive. — Adel News. While we ’expect to always sup port the nominee of the party, n.» matter w’ ohe is, we believe as be tween Evaus and Atkinson, the lattei deserves to be governor ot Georgia. —Statesboro Star* There is no doul t o t ie fact that the question about the goveinois’aip is agitating the minds of the people of Morgan county, and you can put her down in that doubtful column. There is good fighting’ground here, and the final result depends largely upon the work done between now and the convention. —Madison Madisonian. In the gubernatorial contest it is clearly Atlanta against the State. And the State will show Atlanta which is the biggest.—Henry County Weekly. From one who knows thoroughly the political com]’exiin of his coun try, the Times-Journal learns that Montgomery county is practically solid for Atkinson for governor.— Eastman Times-Journal. KEEP YOUR SHIRT ON, BROTHER. One man itn Georgia has aita. k ecl Gen. Evan's war record. Now let his opponents import an infidel to attack him as a Christian and the campaign will be fairly opened,— Griffin Call. The Call is mistaken. The Gris fin JNpwb did not attack General Evans’ “war reeord,” but did must effectively explode the “oriflame” claim set up by the Macon News. Why (lout you fight fair? ’ Base your arguments on facts ana pour in hot shot. Why if, fl the heat of the campaign, som* good democrat were to say that one of you Evans editors were iy, you would get mad, and swear to your wife that he, spoke his whole mind and, called you a lunatic. Keep your shirt on Broth er Sawtell and remember that General Evans knows that the campaign is already “opened”— and so far as Mr. Atkinson was coi cerned, it. was “L irly openeu ’ —lt will be fairly won too. STATE POLITICS. It begins to look as if Commis sioner of Agriculture R, T. Nes hi’t is to have opposition in the i person of Hon. Marton V. Calv n I of Richmond.—A-hens Banner. Atlanta folks are kicking about the extortion on water, and Char lestonians about their mean whis key. The whole country saems to be in a kick.—Brunswick Times. By the way, who is Bartow county going to put up for Sb te Senator this year?—Chattooga News. Hon. W. Y. Atkinson’s speech in Forsyth Thursday, when he fired the first gun of the campaign us ’9l was a strong effort, well re ceived by his listeners. Mr. Atkin son’s campaign seems to be pro gressing most favorably.—Walton News. General Gordon seems to have a paying lecture ; but he could best illustia’e the soldierly qualities which he orates about if he would remain at his post in the United) Sta> Sepate, to which the people of Georgia were partial enough to send him —Walton News. NATIONAL POLITICS. The Democrats in congress and the admini tr ition are doing their bast to keep the party pledges as they understand them. So let vs all help them by giving our opin ion freely, but with out harsh and damaging criticism. Men who do their own thinking are sure to dif f >r some . —Rockdale Banner. Hurrah for your uncle Grover. The people are with him in his glorious stand for honest money a id lighter taxes.—Wadley Ex press. The senate now has the fate of the Wilson bill in its hands. The country is in no humor for trifling ] and the upper house will do well I to cut debate short and push the bill. The people desire and deserve to know the effect of tariff retorm before the next election.—Greens boro Herald-Journal. The Democrats, having won a gieu victory and gained power f r th- i. ni time in thirty yec.s, ha. ui.'ily find some difficulty in get ting together on a program* of action —but they will ger together. Macon Telegraph. Year* ago Georgia furnished in the person of Benjamin Harvey HiH, a match in debate for the “Plumed Knight’’ of Maine. And last w’eek Speaker Crisp knocked the bottom out of Reed’s protection logic. Georgia grows great men. — Chattooga News. »R. JEKTLAND MR.HYDE, The Journal assails Major A. 0. Bacon for an alleged intemperate threat that he made years ago in the hour of defeat, about “voting the Democratic ticket when he felt like it,” a charge that has been au thoritf atively denied, —but it does not hesitate to support the ap pointment of Mr. Peckham to the highest position in the judiciary, when it is a notorious fact that the New Yorker has never hesitated to vo‘e against the Democratic nominee, when it suited him tc do S 3. 1 bus you have it: The evening Journal on state politics, and t.ie evening Cuckoo on federal ap pointments. Both LStinaates coms from the same office—but the jumping jack process is manipulated by differ ent s rings. In cue ihere is an ap parent disposition to seize the slightest excuse for nttacting a consistent Georgia Demoerat, whi’e in the other there is a ridiculoHs readiness to perforin the cuckoo act, even to the extent of favoring a notorooUsly inconsistent New York mugwump.—Atlanta Com mercial. Now read us a verse on : Hjw 11 three Atlanta papers can get on, and stay on one platform, and that i platform rhe one adopted by the Chicago convention in 1892? AMONG THE FAINCES.
