Why has the Constitution never mentioned the date of his birth? Dty by day witnesses the shrink age of the Atlanta Constitutions premeditated, premature boom, for General Evans. The Tribune claims Vanns Val ley for Evans. Surely Mr. Billy '(ribbons has organized himself in to a “Klub” and gone to work. T’WCH. A—'lf Old man “Willie” Breckinridge should colonize in Turkey and gn into the harem business. Ilia kind of kattle kant thrive on American aoi’. The ssuwation of the hour, locally epeaking, is the “muzzling 11 of Max Meyerhardt, papa and wet nurse of -he /Max Meyerh irdt Evans Cluh.“ Who did it? All the unmariied Million heiress fools of America, are against the abolishi g of the Eng lish house of lords—for there be the gods they worship. The Rome Tribune now olaims Vaune Valley, a district said by that Evans man to contain but one of the creed. The next thing we know the old “Trib” will be ' claiming that it is a financial iccees. UIIIIL A Ibe same "Jonahs' and bluffers f ho swore by the horns of Aiah 1 John J. Seay would defeat John D. Moore are now yelling themselves hoarse for the Rev. C. ’ A Evans, the Atlanta Rings can- j didate for Governor. THE HUSTLER OF ROME, TUESDAY MARCH 20, 1894. Tts ths soft balmy night When the fleas crawl aad bite. Jus* the kind of a night you v ould slee'i, Bit the halm of the spring Brings the skeeters—they sing, And you chase ’em wi h er, er heap. The early grass and the lean cow are getting together. Victoria, Australia, had a gold out put of about $15,000,000 las! year. Some of the Comstocks mines! ar* so deep that no meai s nas yet been devised to overcome the ex cessive heat. As there was just thirteen mar riages in Henniker, N 11., last year, the brides are all the objects • f superstitious solicitude. American buggies are supersed ing those of English make in non den and Paris. The only light, graceful vehicles in Europe -come ■ LvC Ibis Country. A curious growth with unusual results is reported from Tombstone, Ari. he roots of a tree are said to have grown around a water pipe and caused it t© break. 11 ■ ML- General Evans will arrive in the city on Saturday night but as he has been superanu—well a man of his age eboald be permitted to rest on Sunday. The people of Georgia, will never again impose the office of governor with its ardious duties upon so old a man as the “Atlanta Ring’s candi date:” Mark that prediction. The more the Evan's Jonah's tear their hair, the stronger grows the 1 phalanxes of the lighting democrats and the greater swet's the majority for the" people's candidate’ our next governor W. Y. Atkinson. The Evans boomers, must be hard run for material for a reception com , mittee, they have published the , names of red hot Atkinson men from the country districts. Lo the poor Evanescent. I Hortense Thevanou Buisley, died in San Francisco in 1868 and her body was sent to New Yerk for ' burial. It was placed in a vault 1 in a cellar and forgotten. A few days ago it was found and she was buried. Advices from Washington state * that “our John” is doing all that any one man can do to have the 1 public building for Romo begun, j Mr. Maddox, es Georgia, is recog nized as one of the ablest demo crats in the house. And the “hoot-licker” has retir , ed behind the bar of his despair, for he has discovered that the John Moore administration is to be run in the interest of tho masses, and that “men will be elected as ser vants of the city. The Belgium chamber hag devo ted three months to discussing the bill which is to uaber into man hood suffrage and has just reached the second reading. If discussion in the senate is a prolific it will be a year before the new parliament can be elected. Here’s ene that will tickle the fun of the editor of the Tribune “figuratively” speaking: Two per sons playing dominoes ten hours a day. and making four moves a minute, could continue 118,000 years without exhausting all the combinations of the game, the to tal of which is 248.428,211,840. — .. .. "it 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.’’ > : JILLS 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 • 1 imes 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. Why not have funerals on the instalment plan! —Augusta News Alright —re—hearse w ith a’ baul ky” horse aad “there you are ’ o “As ye sew so shall ye rip.” It is nsedlesa to add that Ibis is the tailor's motto, —Augusta News. j And yet after watching bimi handle the goose on the seamy side, many a duck iu-dud« wjlhouL a son, have plucked hie suits and Ist him rip. o 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. — Worth County Local. Not a bit of it—We did it with malaee afore thought, kold blood edly an 1 bekase we wanted to. -■ —0- -MO.— 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.” O 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.” A GENT MAKES Five Dollars a avsePine- A the greatest Kitchen Utensil ever invented 8 Retails for thirty-five cents.

Beware brother farm er and do not drift back into the all cottoa system, but make your supplies at home. —Carnesville Tribune. Mr. J. A.
