You are hereby authorized to announce this ticket to the voters of Rome, subject to their action m the [coming municipal election, Asking their support, we pledge our best effort, individual and com bined, to the s ervices of the people and to the upbuilding of our city. Respectfully, FOR mayor JOHN D. MOORE. FOR ALDERMEN First Ward —B. McArver, Second Ward —W. J Neel, Third Ward —Henry Sloffragau. Fourth Ward—Walter Harris, Fifth Ward -T. J. McCaffrey . Mr, Atkiuswn, makes the follow ing additional appoiutaientE for speaking: Baxley, Appling county, on Monday, March 5. Jesup. Wayne county, on Thurs day, March 6. Has the Tribune gone into a hole and pulled the opening in after it. The Ashburn Advance says that when the | inch comes it will be impossible for Evans to touch Atkinson with the North Pole. VT The peasants of Spain work ev ery day ai d dance half the night, and eat nothing but their black bread, onions, ai d watermelons. Charles D. French, of Orono, Mai ne., wrote, ‘‘ln two hours I’ll be dead, shot through the head with a lot of lead* and then committed suicide. That would have been Frenchy even in France. Advertising, like everything else, must have some thing behind it—push. And the pushing man advertises in the way that he will get the best results —in the paper that has the largest subscription l»t- Arizona has for three years paM been the first to ship a car load of American raisins east. The season there is earlier than Southern Cal ifornia, and the atmosphere is specially adapted to raisin cul ture. ' J ■. -1—", The Macon News is writing edi elSals asking “Is there a hoi'?’ Yas, and tie News will be “in if’ in the next Gubernatorial conven tion when old Bibb’c six votes are cast for W. Y. Atkinson, i-s they certainly will b-. 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 state, As between goldfish and silver-] sides President Cleveland would rather—Shoot dux . According to tb» figure., made by a genius, the finger nail grows 7 feet 9 inches long in a scriptural year. Whan did the editor of the Trib une bee m the Auditor in the ot on Tie case? The Hubtlek or Rome had a faint idea that Judge Junius F. Hillyer was appointed to the Audit;.«■ ship of that case. 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 Jackson Argus. 1 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. IMOMG TUR r.ISCBS. Blackberries coinin’ gooilness knows, There’!! be jolly times; The editor's hummin’—no one owes— Hear the jingle of his dimes. Albany Herald.

O While reading a newspaper a i n in Hazelton, Pa., dropped dead, it must have been a merning daily Augusta Evening News It must have been; there is never anything startling in an evening pa per,—Giiflin News. That’s a ‘ge»»d ’un’’, Colonel, and if we were running a morning paper we would enjoy th* joke on the News as it is, ex cept our apologies. 0 The Griffin News observes that (he Hustler of Rome says: That the Atlanta couple who mar ried in the. middle of h read are g ■ ing to have a tough time keeping there unless they move away fiom Atlanta. Senator Hill is chairman on the committee on woman sufferage. This appointment looks like a joke.

Wonder "how much’ he done Cartersville for? o Reme wants work on her public buildings begun at once. The people of that hustling <ity are tiiel of wait ing on the slow motions of Uncle Sam.—Cuurant American.

Respectfully su-bmitted to th« Ma con News with the request that it remove the slander placed upeu the New South’s demoeracy when it placed that bright weekly in the Evans column. o A friend of ours showed as a |IOO bill the other day. We showed one we had against him for $3 and he paid it. Some people are always get ting into trouble by their smartness. —Ringold New South, Trox Brukstou’s lucky star is again in the ascendency, may it not wane until Trox has married him a wife hie name should be perpetuated in Catoosa. The Hustler of Rome has relia ble information from Atlanta which is to the effect that Ceaeral Ev.ms a only stro»g with the ‘‘TOO,’’ and that elament - That the masses will not vote for him in a primary and already the boomers are seriously thinking o's a ( “swap of hoßsea’ - anything to down Atkinson. ’’ ROME R.R.
