Tbe soldiers’ home question is
about the only one t! a can be dis.
oussed in th? Evans Atkinson joint
debate. —Augusta Herald.
After Mr. Atkinson's Forsyth
the Constitution said that
the soldier’s home was not an is
sue, but we are glad to see from
Other Evans papers that it is still
eensidered one We would like to
300 a joint debate upon that very
question . —Griffin News.
t It is said that a young man serv
Hg a term in the Massachusetts
penitentiary for f irgery has earn
od several thousand dollars by
labor outside of what is required
of him as a part of his prison du
ties; that every cent of the money
has been turned over to those who
Jost by his crime, and that when
he was offered a pardon he refused
it, saying he had committed a
crime tor which he wished to make
full reparation not only to those
who suffered by it, but to the

POLITICAL RETORTS.
Rome Tribune: Is there any
reasonable argument that can be
urged against General Evans’ can
didacy for governor? Is he men
tally morally or physically unfit
for the office? Has he ever been
disloyal to his people or to tbeinter
ests cf Georgia? Has he ever fail
ed to answer every call of duty in
peace or war? —Rome Tribune.
It is not that the people of the
State love Gen. Evans lass but Mr-
Atkinson more. It is a good idea
to get into practice in asking ques
tions. After the election you will
be wanting to know who it was
t iat s ruck Pattersan anyway—
Co'umbus Ledger.
General Alger has again retired
from polities. He and Patti
should form a combination. —Mo-
bile News.
That’s right. B »' h <>f them come
high and both have “barrels."
The Columbua Enquirer-Sun
thinks that Hon Sim Adarns'would
make a good governor. The At
kinson papers all seem to have a
distant yearning for “something
better," —Brunswick Times,
This is the first timo an Evans
boomerang Sheet has conceded
the Enquirer-Sun to the young
Georgia Statesmin.
The Buchanan Messenger, an
avowed supporter of Mr. Atkinson
says that “it ib a foregone conclu
sion that Gen. C A. Evans will be
the next governor of Georgia. Per
s >na!ly. we favor Mr Atkinson,
but his chances for the place are
now meagre—Brunswick Times.
The above is going the rounds
of the Boomerang sheets. The Ban
ner Messenger has long since come
out flatfooted for. The youug Geor
gian and the Evans papers know
it and yet they will use the above
repudiated of its outhor, for eam
paign literature —But then the
Boomers are desperate.
Mr. Atkinson has not yet retired.
He must keep very late hour*.—
Augusta News.
Me do. And . Augusta may yet
hear Richmond say ia the next
convention: Mr. Atkinson here
are six you can have them as ours.
In Floyd county Evans will get
seven votes to Atkinson's one.
That is about the proportion in
Richmond. —Augusta Hearld .
May the Lord be merciful to tl.e
gray haired cat’s paw, war-record
is being used by the Atlanta ring
m this campaign for if Richmond
county is his only as Floyd is.
then is his boom indeed busted.
The Hu.'TLER would advise the t •
Hearld to be more cautions and
by all means never base a calcula
tion on the figures of the Rome
Tribune, for at beßt it is only a
mugwump and has no political
sense at all.
THREE MORE COUNTIES.
A’kinsou is supported by more
Iran half the weekly press. This
bodes well for Atkinson, —Thcmas-
villo Times.
In the gubernatorial contest it i“
clearly Atlanta against the state.
And the state will show Atlanta which
is the biggest.—Henry County
Weekly.
Notwithstanding the fact that Gen*
9 era! Evans’ friends are at work it
' seems that Mr. Atkinson ia gaining
ground. The peculiar coincidence of
I the two Atlanta papers being a unit
’ for the General, and Mr. Atkinson
having voted agaiust the soldier's
1 horns looks rather "foxy,’’ So far as
the home is concerned Mr. Atkinson
1b on the popular side in this section,
and could not be beaten for the rea
son that he does uot approve of the
Eoldiei’j home being established, and <
that, too. in Atlanta of course.— p

THE HUSTLER OF ROME, FRIDAY MARCH 2. 1894.
Wh.l bluer than Ilia aky la- I
day? Why the hopes of the Seaymai: t
the Imperial city.
If Eastern Democracy would
like to see a quorum let them
choose Southern representatives to
to represent them in the house.
The Georgia Cha’auqua to be
held at Albany this Spring bids
fair to be the most brilliant yet
held. Here's to you Mclutosh-and
may your plucky city become one
of an hundred thousand.
Last night while Rev. M. C’
McCurdy col. of Timbuctoo, was
addressing the “Seay Lime Kill
Klub’’ on the issues of the hour,
his funeral oration was interrupted
by noise caused by men arranging
the terms of a bet, in the rear of
the hall. The bet was made and
thu Rev, McCurdy finished the dis
course. The colored pastor, should
emulate the example of his white
ministerial brothers. Keep out of
ward politics—except to vote.
ANOTHER ATKINSON PAPER.
Hitherto we have said very lit
tle concerning the gubernatorial
question because, in the first place
we thought we had plenty of time,
and in the second place, the can
didates are so well matched in in
tellectual gifts and possibly in
personal popularity, that we haw
feund it somewhat difficult to
choose between the two. But it
appears that an impression has
gono abroad that we favored Gen .
Evan‘s candidacy. This is a mis
take which we hasten to correct
As a brave Confederate ve’eran,
statesman and Christian gentle
man, Gen. Evans has our wannest
admiratien and respect, but as b -
twesn him and Col. Atkinson for
the governorship, ,ve shall advo
cate the candidacy of the latter,
feeling satisfied that he poasessuß
every manifestation to make a safe
and efficient executive. He is a
bright, learned and eloquentyouug
statesman, and has rendered praise
worthy service to Georgia and the
party. His ambition to be made
governor is an honorable one, and
we see no reason why it should be
defered. Sheuld he be elected he
would bring to the ©ffice intelli
gence, energy, ability and loyalty
to party principles.—Cochran Tel
egram,
Macon News and other boom
erang sheets please change the
Telegram from Evans to Atkinson
on your lists.
ON A LOW PLANE.
The Savannah Dispatch says
that the Evans papers have pitch
ed a portion of their campaign on
a low plane. It comments on the
great rumpus raised about a letter
written by Mr, Atkinson to a Bap
list minister and says:
The Evans papers have made a
great row about the letter Mr. At
kinson wrote to a Baptist minis
ter asking for support inhisguber
uatorial candidacy, In their wild
haste to injure Mr. Atkinson thesß
editors have overlooked the fact
that Gen. Evans has written Ut
ters which could be produced in
print if the editors of the Atkin
son papers were disposed to con
duct the campaign on such a low
plane.
But Mr. Aik inson’s supporters,
though thpy have these letters m
their possession, have i o reason to
reeort to the methods adopted by
the opposition. Their candidate
stands before the p< ople of lis
state with an unblemished record
of great work for democracy, and
can afford to lot the other side
throw as much mud as it pleases.
More will stick to the hands es
those who attempt to oast it than
will cling to Mr. .Atkinson.—
Athens Banner.
NATIONAL POLITICS.
Senator Hill says he is not and
will not be a can lidate in the guber
natorial flap-jack in New York. Tha r
settles it. The Senator has been hav
ing his way about things in general
here of late.—Albany Herald.
We are reliably informed that the
estimable democrat who ran for con
gress-man-at-large in Pennsylvania
the other day, is still at large. Co-
lumbus Ledger.
