Man's most fatal enemy
.woman.
Atkinson has only ju«t started.
, aftei he runs a few mouths he wil
have over one hundred counties.
When man prays he prays for
all mankind. A woman’s prayer is
nothing of the kind—she only
prays for one man.
Here's the way Hale’s Weekly
figure# it out: The people of Geor
gia want a man for governor who
don't train with the Atlanta politi
cal rottenness. Atkinson is such a
man and they know it.
Fires wore lighted this week and
the great Birmingham rolling
mills have started up, giving ein
ployment from the word “go” to
300 men. More Cleveland times,
observes the Coosa River News.
Why didn’t Governor Northen
call out the troops to prevent that
cock fight which occurred below
Thomasville last week? It was
just as disgraceful to the State as
the Corbet-Mitchell mill would
have been had it occurred on Geor
gia soil. —Lee County Enterprise
W. Y. Atkinson will deliver an
address in Savannah on March 10.
He has been invited to speak at
the annual banquet of the Hiber
nian society on that date. Satur
4ay is St. Patrick’s day, but the
banquet will be given on Monday
night, Col. Atkinson has written
to the committee accepting the
invitation.
It seems to be a dangerous thing
"for a woman to tell a man that he
hasnt the nerve to do a thing. In
.Brooklyn, the other day. a woman
told her husband that he hadn’t
the nerve to commit suicide,
-whereupon 1 e shot himself in the
head. Os course the Brooklyn
widow is better off than she was as
a Brooklyn wife. Any Brooklyn
widow will testify to tnat.
S',.. J_ 'g?,!"!.
■Columbus Enquirer Suu: /The
Augusta Herald ha# this complaint to
make against Coweta's candidate for
Governor; There are several reasons
why Col. Atkinson oan’t carry Rich
mond county. One is that he seems to
have made it a point, when he could
do so, to try to beat a Richmond
county man for office ’ This strikes us
as an ungenerous objection. Mr. At
kinson and Mr. Fleming, of Richmond
were both ci niidates for Speaker of
the House. It is a high and it was
a laudable ambition in each of the
gentlemen. That Mr. Atkinson was
successful in an honorably conducted
contest should not be used as a weap -
on against him by the friends of his
opponent.
Cleveland has sat down on New
York to get even with David Ben
nett Hili. A Louisiana senator

With Judge Barrett and Boss Mc-
Kane of New York and Judge Bart

A New York hotel for some time
avoided paying a liquor license by
keeping its stock on top floor
and charging customers an eleva
tar fee of 10 cents to be taken up.
The liquor was sorved free. In con
■ ideration of the above the Savan
nah News says that there is noth
ing in natural history more inter
esting than the study of the * blind
tiger.” But to date the above is
the first case on record where he

STATE POLITICS.
Hon. A. O Bacon of Macon was
in Dublin on professional business
a few days ago. Maj. Bacon will
be a candidate for United

Co'quitt. There is not a man in

A woman’s plea to be appointed

ONLY ELEVEN.
The Beuna Viata Patriot is a red
hot Evans organ, and has l>een claim
ing Marion county as a solid Evan#
stronghold. Only the other day the
Atlanta Constitution used an extract
from the Patriot as the text for one of
its “come down Mr. Atkinson!” edi
lonals. and referred to the situation
in Marion county as a fair illustration
of the condition of things in every
section of the State, etc.
Now for the sequel. In response
to a published call, and after much
industrious canvassing, the Evans
men met in the court-house on the
first Tuesday for the purpose of or
ganizing a club.
The town was full of people, and
all had ample notice of the meeting
It is a melancholy fact, however, that
when the Evans contingent got to
gether and counted noses there were
just eleven of them, including the
editor of the Patriot.
The editor, in the issue of his pa
per, excuses this apparent lack of
enthusiasm by saying that the people
were too busy to attend the meeting,
and that salt-day was not a good
time for public gatherings nohow.
This explanation doubtless satisfied
the CoDstitutior, for it has made no
mention whatever of the* Evans rally
in Mirion ” —Newnan Hira'd.
Instead of the Constitution’s eake
being all dough why, the Constitution
had do cake—on the 'leven. And such
ieven as it was would not work—how
eould it when it didn’t know how?
Rev. C. A. Evans will yet do the
‘come down” act. Mark that predic
tion.”
ANENT THE SITUATION.
The Atlanta Journal remarked
the other day, in its usual light
headed and simple way, that if
Mr. Atkinson desired the people to
know of his candidacy for the Gov
ernorship he would have to blazon
the news by means of handbills;
the public would never know he
was a candidate from reading the
newspapers. If the Journal has
any capacity for reflection at all,
will it please tell us what it thinks
of the situation now?—Newnan
Herald.
Atkinson receives an ovation where
ever he goes. In fact, the tidal wave
is now in favor es the young states
man. —Dublin Post.
“The Constitution says Atkinson
has ‘adopted the declarations of his
competitor’ on National issues. This
is real funny. Away last year Atkin
son and the gallant young Geor
gians who labored with him were
out adopted the Democratic platform
all over this State, but we de not re
call General Evans as having attain
ed any particular prominent ? in that
connection at that time ’’ —Georgia
Cracker.
Watch honest Bill Atkinscn teach
the Atlanta ring and their henchmen
a lesson. The common people of the
State are for him because he is for
them. —Hales Weekly.
The Jesup Sentinel believes that
“the Atkinson procession has the
right of way.” So it has, and is
moving at a rate that will laud its
candidate in the gubernatorial
chair on schedule time. —Colum-
bus Ledger.
Notwithstanding the fact that
Gen. Evans frie ids are at werk
here, it seems that Mr. Atkinson
is gaining grow nd. The peculiar
coincidence of the two Atlanta pa
pers being a unit for the general
and Mr, Atkinson having voted
against the Soldiers’ Home, looks
rather “foxy.” So far as the home
is concerned, Mr. Atkinson is ©n
the popular side in this section ,
and could not be beaten, for the
reason that he dons not approve of
the Soldiers’ Home being estab
lished, and that, too, in Atlanta
of course. So far as we are con
cerned, we are not committed and
will be guided in aur caurae by
political for both are
worthy, and we have no abuse for
either, knowing now that we will
support the nominee, whether it
le for one of the above gentlemen
or Jack Jenkins of Jenkinsburg.—
Jackson Argus.
Tom Watson’s bitter opposition
to the candidacy of Mr. W. Y At
kinson for the Democratic nomi
nation for governor should be a |

Below, we publish today, a page
from the proceedings of the last dem
oeraiic convention hold in Floyd
county.
It was the convention of Aug. 2nd.
1892, and it might be of interest to
state that every man nominated in
that convention was elected as were
all the nominees of conventions to
which that convention sent dele
gates.
But here are items that may
prove of intense interest to many
aspirants—just now ;
Col. Hamilton offered the fol
lowing resolution which was
unanimously carried and scored a
victory for The Hustler ts Rome,
in as much as it does away with
the infamous ten delegate system :
Whereas, there is dissatisfaction
and objection to the convention
system of nominations previously
adopted by the executive commi
cee. Be it,
Resolved by the Democratic
party this day in convention as
sembled, that the executive com
mittee hereafter appointed be re
quested to call primary elections
for nominations,

WHERE SHE WAS VACCINA aED
When women get together some
very good stories are often set in cir
culation. Here is one:
One day an actress went to a phy
sician to be vaccinated. The good
doctor was all agreeable, nnd said.
I
“Madame, will you kindly remove
your sleeve?”
What a naive old doctor he must
have been! What an |old-fa-hioned
fellow, since he thought any woman
of the fin de siecle would be’var
cinated on her arm !
“Ob,' - exclaimed the lady, “that
would not do doctor! You forget I
am au actress. You must vaccinate
me somewhere where it wont show.
The great physician thought a
moment and finally said: ‘Au ac
trese? Madame don't you think
you had better take the vaciuue
internally ?"'
