Nothing brings out conditions
like circumstances. Since the war
the public schools have been jog
j'ing along the best they could, re
ceiving no attention whatever from
Gen. Evaas. Then two yaars ago,
whew blantant demagoguery ran

A-word did we hear from Gensral
Scans, who seemed not to care if

tyaehard won by ethers. But new
■’‘under a fair sky aud o’er a glassy

the lion's share of the spoils, and
at this late day he has suddenly
developed an ’“intense interest’’
in the common schools of the
State.. Funny, isn’t it? —Wadly

The Sparta Ishmaelite makes
this very plain ebßervation: “Ex
perieeee in public affairs counts
for a great deal when it comes to
discharging the duties of chief
magistrate of a State - Atkinson
is unquestionably better qualiied
for governor than his competitor,
"nd it is to the interest of the peo
ple to put the best qualified man
in the pesitien. ”
ATKINTON WILL GET THERE.
Tho Macon Telegraph is object
ing to early primaries, We are
very mueh afraid that, in some
counties, the Atkinson people will
want to see neither primaries or
mass meetings.—Augusta Htrald.
That may be true but we five
you this by Telegraph, in most of
the counties, General Evans is go
ing to do “powerful well” to be
B*cond-ary, be it primaries or
mass meetings. “Mark that pre
diction.”

“OUR JOHN” HIS OWN SUCCESSOR
Tho Marietta Journal says:
“And it is now reported that Hon,
R. W. Everett, of- Polk county,
will probably be a candidate for
the nomination for
Congress in tho 7th dietriot, in
epppsition te Congressman Mad
dox.”
Well, why not? Tho distriol has
never had a better representative
than Colonel Everett, and many
of the best Democrats feel that he
was justly entitled to the nomina
tion and re-election in 1892. Ho
ha« made no announcement as v ot
of his intentions, but bo would
certainly have a strong following
if he enters the race.—Codartown
Standard.
Col, Everott may be returned to
Congress in the far off uturo —he
may bo—but just now John W.
Maddox is doing more good for
constituents in tho Bloody Sev
enth and for Democracy, thus any
other man who could be eleetod.
Every citizen in the Seventh has a
right to “announce” but we opine
that no sane democrat will do so
in the year of gr ice 1894. “Our
John” is tho Democratic watch
word all over the Seventh for tho
next race.
GEORGIA NUGGBTS.
A recent issue of the Augusta
Chronicle contained nearly six
columns of Sheriff s sales. The fi

A GEORGIA WOMAN.
The wife of Hen. Wm.L. Wilson
is a Georgia lady, Shewa# Miss
Nanuio Huntington, the daughter
of the Rev. Dr. Huntington, who
was for many years an honorable
Baptist minister in Augusta.
Miss Huntington was bern in
the Fountain City and spent her
school days here. When she mar
ried Mr. Wilson he was a college
professor. The “professor’' gives
Georgia bi? wi f e the credit for his
inspiration and success.
Mrs. Wilson waa a schoolmate
of Mrs. J. C. C . Black, the aceom
plished wife of the tenth’s repre
sentative. These two women, who
married poor Confederate soldiers
and have seen them both go to
congress, beloved and honored bv
their states, have renewed their
friendship of rnaay years back,

THE HUSTLER OF ROME, FRIDAY MARCH 16.

Russel the sweet singer, hand

Senator Colquitt has fomerly
announced his candidacy for re
election to the United States San

done would have been te keep out
of the race. —Calhoun Times.
Granny Colquitt is in the race
fer United States Benater to suc
ceed herself. If there ever was a
vacant seat in the Senate it is the
one Colquitt is supposed to fill. —
Bremen Chronicle.
THE RACE FOR GOVERNOR
If North Georgia is not practi
cally selid for Atkinson the News
is very badly deceived. We be
hove he will carry forty ceunties
in this tection of the state. His
friends are at work, They d® Dot
claim that the movement is his
favor is entirely “spontaneous”
They know that succes is pelitics,
as in other things, is the child of
work, ami they have rolled up
their sleeves and gone at it, with a
determination that will win.—
Eawrence News.
Unless all.signs fail, Mr. W. Y.
Atkinson of Ceweta eounty will
reeeive overwhelming majority
of the votes fer the gubernatorial
nomination in the Democratic
state convention. This is as it
should be.—Macon Telegraph.
Gen. Evans’ “popular uprising’’ii
rapidly gathering a tired feeling
and is fast seeking a rest that will
be perpetual after August 2. Not
very long ago the organs support
ing his candidacy kindly advised
Mr. Atkinson te retire from the
field, as everything had been pn c
tioally settled for the semination
of Gon. Evans, but new they aie
