Mr. Atkinson, makes the follow
ing additional appointments for
speaking:
Baxley, Appling county, on
Monday, March 5.
Jesup, Wayne county, on Thurs
day, March 6.
March camo in like a lamb, she
will of course go out —the J3lts.
Says the Carrollton Times!
Ten years ago Cockran had eleven
bar rooms and whiskey held high
carnival. Now the town has but three
saloons, and a drunken man on
the street is the aynopsure of all
eyes,
The Krupp gun works claims to
have manufactured a machine
which will iol’ iron so thin that it
would take I,BCO sheets to make
an inch.
Mr. William Durant has bteti
treasurer of the Boston Transcript

LET THEM DEBATE.
No sooner had General Evans
accepted Mr. Atkinson's invita
lion to appear on the stump and
debate the issues of the campaign,
than all the papers on I is side
commenced to cry in concert that
no debate was wanted. This was a
very poor comp'iment to their
cauditate, virtually admitting >1 a
he could not cop® in ability with
his opponent, but they are still
keeping U)> the cry. Ths Atlanta
Commercial, however, believes in
carry ing out a tbiugto its logical
conclusion, no matter whom it
may hurt, and justly says :
“The papers that are arguing
•gainst a joint debate between Gen
era] Evans and Mr. Atkinson, do
not• represent the with s or the
interests of the people.
“The candidates themselves
have recognized the importance of
* a joint canvass for governor, by
agreeing to make one. If they are
satisfied, why should others object?
“The Commercial believes that
the only way open for a fair esti
mate of the candidates for cflice
is for them to meet each ('♦her
face to face before the people, and
discuss the different questions of
interest. The fact that they tnav
occupy practically the same posi
tion on ißfeUes of State and natioi -
il importance, is no argument
against joint debates. Tl.e people
ant to ‘size ’em up,’ us it were, in
Harner ways,
-there is abuudant prece-l
dent for such a canvass, There has
sever been a gubernatorial cam
paign in Georgia when there were
only two candidates, that a joint
debate true not demanded by the
people,”

We venture the prediction that
if Evan® gets the nomination for
governor, Atkinson will do all in
hi® power to have him ®lected.
That is the kind of Democrat At
kinson is, and that is one reason
why he ought to win.—Chattooga

A Boston evangelist told his con
gregation the other day that one log

to popubze church services would be
the establishment of a kitchen in

flapjack for every worshiper cooked

A BACHELOR’S SATIRE.
Oh, I am a bachelor, living alone.
With no one to kiss me ard call me her own.
Or say, when till midnight the city I roam ;
“Well, this is a nice time of night to come
home!”
A stranger 1 am, 1 confess, to the joys,
Felt by fathers when young ones are making a
noise:
1 never have known the delirious delight
Os walking the floor with the baby at night;
I have no affectionate mother-in-law;
•n calling from slumber a servant girl raw
At 8 in the morning. I waste not my breath,
And yet I’m not fretting myself half t» death
—New York Press.
Sometime ago. the Itlanta Journal
wis called upon by an Evans weekly
to know wiiy it had become so silent
al < ul the gubematoiial race.
Its columns of comments from
other papers about the campaign has
recently couthiuetl a number, which
were very favorable to Mr. Aikin
son—the number being greater
than one wou’d th uk that courtesy
or the desire for information about
both sides on the part of it« readers
demand.
In yesterday afternoon s issue we
find the following very suggestive
paragraph:
“ I’he man whose business is to inter
pret the bible, is likely to make a
sad mess of interpreting a partv
platform ”
Might it not be true that he might
make as “sad a mess” in bearing the
standard of Democracy through a
heated campaign?
Would a man “whois likely to
make a sad m< ss of interpreting a
party platform,’’prove a fit occupant
Hie gubernatorial chair of the Em
pi'e State of the South whose Dem
ocracy is her pride?
Is not Gen. Evans a man whose
business, during the past quarter
of a century, has been to interprt t the
Bible? ,|
In view of all this, we are led to
believe that the Atlanta Journal i
discovering the error of its way and
may yet come over upon the right'
side of the gubernatorial question
When it does, it will receive a Dem
ocratic wdc >me,such as the yoeman
ry of the Democratic party knows
how| to give. —Columbus Ledger. I

THE “WOOL HATS” RALLY.
Mu. Atkinson made an awful
break in writing to a Baptist
preacher asking for his Mippo:t
and unwittingly addreawd a Pop
ulist. He may beconnoled to learn,
however, that his pure and distin
guished rival has asked the sup
port of numbers nf the prominent
Populist® of Greene. But isn’t it
awful for •andidates to appeal to
an\’ one sav® the ’‘organized? ’ —

Unless all signa are deceptive
Atkinson is winning slowly but
steadily in the gubernatorial race.
We br gin tj believe deep down that
he is a sure winner.—Chattanooga

“From all parts of the State
comes news that the pet pie are

‘‘popular uprising” for Gen Evans
that we heard so much of a few

The Evan® men of Wai‘on coun

Atkinson says the Walton News.
Hon. W. Y. Atk n o.i is ref-pond

quarter of the State to address the
public, and is favorably received
wherever he speaks, This gallnut
Democrat is gaining ground daily,
and the public is listening to his
manly, statesmanlike utterances.
We wonder when, the joint discus

voters of Georgia would like to

quarts has beeD discovered iu ih®
streets near Lew ie Meaders’ resi

have obtained permission from
the city council to work it. They
are taking out the ore and having
it crushed at the Lawrence mill
and it i® rich in the precious met
al.
It is not often you see a town
whose streets are paved with gold
bearing rocks, but Dahlonega is
an exception. Outcropping of a
ledge of gold ®re can be seen in
the public square, and often after
heavy rains small nuggets have
been picked up in the gutters
along the sidewalks that had been
washed out of the vein®.
A”, some distant day we believe
the town of Dahlonega will be un
dermined and these veins deve
loped into a mine of great rich
ness. —Dahlonega Nugget.
