If General Evans is as ashamed of
his age, aa his papers are he must
feel mighty little running for office
All the cuts published of him arc
from photos of the long, long ago.
The Atlanta Journal of last night
published the cuts of Evans and At

of a generation ago. Why is the

SHOULD GET OUT OF DEMOCRAT
IC RANKS
The Atlanta Constitution has
seen fit to come out of its own
s f ate and mesa in Alabama p ]j
tics. We feel sorry for a paper’not
able to compete with its own con
temporary. It sees fit to revamp a
lot of rot about Col. Oates, who is
to day one of the grandest men in
the State and has always stood firm
for democratic principles. If if
propsoses to eternally condemn
democratic men and measures, we
think she ought to get out of t the
ranks of the democratic press. We
are going to stand by the admin
istration in our State and do not
need the Constitution to teach us
the policy and polities of the Hon.
Wm. C.—Geneva (Ala ,) Mirror.
A CAMPAIGN JOKE,
The Jonesboro Enterprise gives
the snap away in the following
style: It is rumoied that the third
party men in several counties, in
this immediate section, has deter
m ned to do all they can to secure
the nomination of Mr. Atkinion
for governor. They consider Mr.
Aikmeon much the weaker of th 4
Jwo candidates, and hope to nomi
nate and then desert him for their
man,—Griffin Call
The above is a “fair to medium’’
specimen of the campaign fodder
from the Evans organs. Os course
the Evans papers who reproduce
it mean it to go to the public as a
joko on the third party, none of
whom ferget that 80.000 majority
in 92. Where was Evans “at” in
those stormy days?
BACON GAINING GROUND.
Hon. A, O. Baton, candidate for
the United Stales Senate, visited
Gwinnett eounty last week. He ex
pressed himse’f as being encouraged
over the prospect of his success; and
in Gwinnett was greatly pleased
with the cordial welcome extended
him, with the assurances of support
irom old and new friends.
Maj. Bacon will ceme to Walton in
the near future. His candidacy in our
county will of course meet with much
favor, since he has a legion of friends
in our county.
Os a nmubcn-of able and distin
guished men who have been men
tioned in connection with the high
office to which he aspires he is one
of t e ab sst and most popular.

Sam Jones draws a distinction be

Perhaps he makes a simi’ r distinc

—Americus Timas Recordn.
The Brunswick Times-Advertis r
sizes it up about right in the follow
ing
“The matter of fact details of the
Breckinridge Pollard scandal may
puzzle the jury, but it leaves the en
tire country with the idea that Breck
inridgo is an old rascal and Mit>s Pol
laid an easy graceless girl.”
Friends of General Evans appear
horrified when they hear Bill Atkin
son modestly telling of his services
to the State. They ery “Egotism.”
But no matter—the,people of Geor
gia love the orphaned plow-boy who
has successfully passed every ob
struction which has confronted him
in the pathway of public life, and
‘‘plain Bill” is going to be governor.
—Walton News.
General Evans in his first debate
s id that 100 counties and over 100
newspn "I’3 have ca’ ed him. Gen
eral Evans seems Io be more of a
politician than he is a minister of the
Gospel after all- Will he name 50

battles? As to the counties, why the
old man is in his dotage. He will do
