Mr. Atkinson, makes the follow ing additional appointments for speaking: Jesup. Wayne county, on Thurs day, March 6. 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 ciples —Cochran Telegram The verdict of those whe inapec i ted both meetings last night have been rendered on the Tribune’s account of them this morning and it is to the effect that the Tribune waa either sadly misinformed o r , had wilfudy manufactured a Beay- j side campaign lie, t THE HUSTLER OF ROME.
