OUT OF THEIR OWN MOUTHS.
Aa a rule, the papsrs that are ad
VO eating Rev. Evans for governor
have little to say in favor of their
candidate these days except in flip
pant paragraphs. They are ably edit-
ed journals in the main and they know
that there is little reason to justify
their preference, so they avoid direct
reference to the subjeet as mueh as
poeible. But this does not keep them
from stultifying themselves when
thev proceed to talk sensibly on other
subject*. Let us give > J ew instances
The Savannah Press is a conserva
tive and high toned paper, and ex
presses our sentiments exactly when
it thus defines the mission of a news
paper:
••A newspaper has a great and im
portant duty te perform foi the peo
ple it assumes to represent. It is to
advance in a proper manner all of
their material interests. It falls far
short of this when it j allows itself to
become an organ of rancor aed a dai
ly reminder of dead issues. A news
paper's life is primarily in the pres
ent. The past may furnish it valuable
they do not teach th*
wisdom of resurrecting and perpetu
ating sectional ill-feeling.”
The material interests of Georgia
will assuredly be better advanced by
a man in the prime of life, acquainted
with all the issues of the day and ful
ly qualified to deal with them, and
with a future before him, than b .
one whose life is in the past, and
whose campaign is but a “daily re
minder of dead issues ” The lessoaa
of the past do not teach the wisdom
of electing old soldiers te civil office
The whole paragraph is an excellent
argument in favor of Mr. Atkinson,
and thj? Press goes back on its own
clear conceptions of a newspaper's
duty by supporting G- n. Evans.
Agai u s . the Augusta Chronicle, in
deprecating the entrance es Turner,
Crisp or Black into the senatorial
race, says:
by should a congressman who
is iii touch with his people, enjeying
their confidence, and busy in furnish
ing measures for their interest and
advancei) ent, care to doff’ the war
rior’s jacket for the senatorial toga?
Why sb' uld a rutin, with an earneat
admiring constitueicy, surrender it
for the sake of representing the state
at large, and too often nothing in
particular? *
Why should a minister of the Gos
pel, who is in touch with ti e jeople
enjoying their coiifi lenos and busy
in advancing their highest interests,
which is the salva ion of their souls,
care to doff the Christian warrior's
jaoket for the gubernatorial robot?
Why should a man whe has been
called to fill the highest Jand most
sacred office on earth, according to
his own lifelong professions, “urren-
der it for tin |paltry and transient hon
ors tbat’cah be given by tbs poor err
ing humaaity whom it is bis mission
to point to better things? Lst the
Chronicle apply toe Socratic method
to its eondn in • isis'iag to drag
Rev Evans down frem the pulpit
and see what the result will ba.
But most inconsistent of all is the
attitude of the Rome Tribune,
which is lighting vigorously against
the employment of inexperienced men
by its city governssent from political
reasons. It says:
“Once in a while inexperience de
velops unexpected ability, but such
eases are rare, especially in the con
duct of public business. All business
men know how easily inexperience
is, and they do not dare to trust 'it
with iaiportunt matters, however
promising the material. There is
not a business corporatise is the
world that would fleet novices for
directors. Strange to say, that is of
ten done by public corporations, but
they usually have te pay dearly for
the blunders of inexperience. ”
The Savaanah Press, in copyisg
this, says that is applicable to all
cities; much more, we add, does it
apply to ths States, as States are
larger and deal with much more im
portant affairs than cities. But in the
very face of the truths so forcibly ex
pressed by the Tribune and endorsed
by the Prase, both papers advocate
ths election of a man who has bad uu
experience in State affairs since tue
beginning of the war that ended thi. -
ty years ago, and decry the Merits of
another candidate who fer eight years
pxst hsa given all his time and atten
tion to the pressing questiess of the
State an 1 has put his strong and
benificial impress upon all measures
enacted during that time.
Truly may we say te each of these
prophets of the tribe of Evan-: “Thiie
own mouth condemneth thee, aid
not I; yea, tl ine own lifts testify
against thee.” — Griflin News.
, TWO MORE COUNTIES HEARD
, FROM
Aa we goto press with this issue
on Thursday, Hou W. Y, Atkinson,
Democratic candidate for governor
of Georgia, is addressing some 200
or more citizens and voters of
Cherokee at the court house. Col.
Atkinson is making a splendid
speech and is having a quiet, respect
ful hearing. In our next issue, we
will endeavor to give a fuller report
as his speech and the position he oc
cupies upon public Questions that af
fect the interests of all men. Cel, At
kinson is strong in Cheerokee »uc
his fiiends feel confident that he wil
carry this county and a majority, too
of the other 137 counties m the state,
and during the years 1895-96 occu
« py the governor's seat in our shte
oapitel. Certain it is Atkinson is
stronger in Cherokee than be was t
few weeks ago, and he is growing
stronger, toe.—Cherokee Advance.
v Hitherto we have said very little
j concerning the gubernatorial quts
. tien because, in the first pl a#e , we
j thought we had plenty of t me, and
... in the second place, the can ilt'«
1 are so well matched in intelectual
gifts and possibly in personal popu
i l*rity, that wo have fouad it some
what difficult to choose between the
two. But it ap] e .rs that an impression
t has gone abroad that we favored
, Gen Evans’ candidacy. Tais is a
i mistake whieh we hasten to correet.
s As a brave Confederate veteran,
statesman and Christian gentleman,
i Gen Ivans has our ra-mest adsai
, ration and respect, but as between
| him and Col. Atkinson for the gover
norship we shall advocate the candi
dacy of the latter, feeling eatisfied
that he possesses every qualification
necessary to make an eficient execu
tive. lie is a bright, learned, eloquent
young statesman, who has rendered
I praiseworthy service to Georgia and
the party. His ambition t> be made
governor is an honorable one and we
see no rearon why it should be defer
red, Should he be elected he would
bring to the office intelligence, ener
&y> ability and loyalty to party prin
