the date of his birth?
Dty by day witnesses the shrink

General Evans will arrive in the

been superanu—well a man of his
age eboald be permitted to rest on
Sunday.
The people of Georgia, will never

STATE POLITICS.
Colquitt has nt done anything dur
ing his term in the U. S. Senate to
entitle him to re-election, wiP his.
organs please give it to the public?—
Worth County Local.
Senator Colquitt has a number ©f
friends in Georgia who believe that
he is going te succeed himself.
It is alleged that “they smiled'
when the candidates for the Senate
iu Georgia read of the Turner meet
ing atj Thomasville.— August | lirald
When Will Atkinson was stump
ing the slate in 1832 from the moun
tains of Dade to where the Atlantic
waves wash Georgia's eastern coast,
rousing the democratic clans to ac
tion, where, oh, where was Gen.
Evans? Was he ind ulging in a little
more sleep, a little more slumber, a
little more folding his hands in ease.?
—Marriwether Vindicator.
The Atlanta Journal aud the Con -
I stitutioa fight each other frightfully
editorially, but they stand by one
another locally. —Augusta Herald.
Why es course They Lola baloMg to
the “Atlanta Ring' I —the same com
bination which would eontroll the
politics of Georgia—and which ii
fighting Bill Atkinson.
Mr. Atkinson has never said there
was an “Atlanta ring" in any ®f his
speeches He did say, and lia<i the
manhood to still sjiy Uiat the'Atlanta
peliticians nre working against him .
This is one instance where the hit
dog howled before he was hi*. Per
haps they needed a lick or twx and
w ere afraid Mr. Atkinson would give
' it to there, and so he is.—Bhchan
naa Messenger.
John Irvin of Rome, ehot at a
• flock of blackbirds and killed six
ty-three at one fire. The remark-
' able part of this yarn is that every
' bird killed was shot through the
eye.—Atlanta constitution. The
above is about as reliable as most
of the campaign rot published by
the great and onliest —the Atlanta
1 Ceustitution.
The Hustler of Rome knows of
four Evans men who changed to At
kinson on Monday. This is the trend
’ of polities in this city since Col. ll*r-
J per Hamilton finally settled down on
the Evans side —the side from which
' he had strayed in the out set, ean
the Evans people name a naan who
was ever Atkinsonian who is not more
se now? Do so, if you can.
1 The Baltimore Suu, printed with
-1 in ear-shot of the senate, makes a
demand which will be applauded
by every true domocrat. It saya:
“We have come at last to the di
’ viding of the ways. Men, whether
I J
senators or not, cannot profess to
• be democrats and praetice Mc
t KMnleyisns. At least, if they do,
, they eonnot expect the loyal mass-
ei of the party, whose prineipals
they have ceased to represent, to
be any longer decided by their
# professions. With treachery
both epea and secret, in tho senate
it is time for the friends and ad
-5 vooates es tariff reform, net dilll
, ed er qualified McKinleyism, to be
. girding en their armor again, and
renewing that organization which
brought victory to the denaocratics
in 1890 and again in 1892, and
which alone can save it from de
feat in 1894.’’

GEORGIA’S “DISGRACE.”
ol . Ham’s Georgia Cracker
asks if Gen, Fitz Hugh Lee was
disgraced when he was defeated
for United States Senator? N< ,
brother Ham, but it was a dead
swipe on Virginia,—Brunswick.
* rp •

Does Brother Wrench mean to
say that if A'kinson defeats Ev
ans, that Georgia will be disgrac
ed? “Come off” with your senti
mental rot. Virginia is in the van
of progress and Georgia is moving
to the front, — Hustler or Rome.
To which Brother Wrench en
ters this disclaimer and para
graph of explanation :
“Brother Byrd of the Rome Hust
ler, asks if “Brother Wrench
thinks Georgia would be> disgraced
by the election of Col. Atkinson."
The T. A. does not care to be bo
quoted. Il does not believe that
any man elected by the Demo
cracy of Georgia is liable to dis
grace the State. The T.~A does not
favor General Evans for
governor because it doubts tht
capacity cr integrity of Colonel
Atkinson. It, however, looks up
on General Evans as being the
superior man, and from the same
motives which control other
thoughtful people in political
choice, favors him. The T.-A will
not abuse g©od Democrats.”
Thu "T.-A." Should not fight
good democrats “eyether" aud es-
pecially when the “good demo
crat" is opposed by one who for
30 years has had such “a poor way
of ehowing it" if he is a democrat.
Mr. Atkinson will defeat General
Evans and Georgia will suffer the
same as the “swipe on Virginia.
Again we Bay “shame on such
rot,"
AMON* THE PAINCES.

The Hustler of Rome has a
head for its “Krisp Klearkut
Kurbetone Kchat” column that
reads like a sneeze. Possibly it
hasn’t recovered from la grippe, or
some one “put a head” on it dur
ing the last municipal election. —

The Roue Hustler declares
that it has not heard of a new
Evans club in four weeks, and
that as it predicted, “clubs” will
not be trumps in the gubernatori
al game.—Columbus Ledger.
Since then a Club of three men
has been formed in one of the
districts of this county, a Presi
dent, a vice President and a secre
tary. Now let Billy Gibbons or
ganize himself down in Vanns
Valley and go to work and help
Atlanta save the state —from De
mocracy.
o
Is it ignorance of some people
or have they a spite at the editor?
They continue to send us anny
mous communications for publi
cation.—Cave Spring Herald.
o
The Evans followers complain
that Atkinson goes too fast. Well,
he set out to distance the old gen
tleman and its no use to tell him
to go slower. If Gen. Evans is
too old to keep up with the pro
cession let him retire, —Meriweth-
er Vindicator.
o
That same fallow who is now
writing from Rome to the Atlanta
papers stating that Floyd county
will go for Evans said that Mayor
Moore would never be elected
mayor of Rome, but Moore is
mayor “just as hard.”—Buchanan
Messenger.
Yes and just as long as we can
keep those amature “Jonahs" in
line with the old “sore heads and
Jonahs"—we can count safely on
electing such men as Mayor Mysore
aad Governor Atkinson.
The Bard of Ellijay sings to
this purpose:
“Sing a song of bright hopes,
Hopes of office pi -,
Four and twenty candidates
Looking up high.
“8 ng a song of sadness.
Dead March iu Saul,
Three and twenty candidates
Got an awful fall.”

The editor of The Early Coun
ty Newa makes this acknowledge
ment:
“Mr. John Anderson, of Cedar
Spriugß, sends us a wild turkey
beard nearly a foot long. Wash
says: John killed the gobbler
while he was running 400 yards,
with his Winchester. That is to
sav, the gobbler and John was run
ning, and the gobbler was not run
ning 400 yards, any or other par
ticular distance, but was 400 y irds
from John, and running, but not
running with John’s Winchester.
In fact the Winchester was not
running at all, nor was the turkey
running off with it.”
