They do try mighty hard—Oglethorpe Echo. The Platform at Griffin Wedues day seems to have cal lapsed with Pea Jay Moran just as he had fig ured it out that only about »ne third of the crowd were Atkinson men. Moran is a lightening calcu lator.—Columbus Enquirer Sun. Says the Macon Telegraph : ‘ ’LI Mr, Atkinson makes friends as fast in the balance of the State as he did in Spalding and Clarke counties, his nomination might, as well be made unanimously. Says the Columbus Ledger: A rumor has been going the rounds of the slats press that Hon. E. P. Howell of the Atlanta Con stitution may be the Thifd party nominee for governor. There are numbers and numbers of one-legged and one-armed ex Confederate soldiers in this county who are supporting Atkinson be cause they know he is the man to make Georgia a good governor.— Lawrenceville News.

And now comer, the Atlanta Con stituiion, mid says that Gen, Evans' claims to the Georgia governorship are not based o.i his war record, but rather on his supreme fitness for the ©ffice; uh his ability to govern, and on the man, as a man. The Constuticn should notify General Evans and the “me too” newspapers over the state, and putthem on the other track. The Evans organs are frantic in iheir efforts to find the cause for op - position to their candidate and have gone so far as to conjecture that the Atkinson people oppose Gen. Evans because he wis a soldier and is a minister. This is highly amuain" In Walton county a majority of the voters are for William Y. Atkinson because of his superior fitn s . for* the office of governor; and the rest of Georgia seems to be going the same way—Walton News.

In neither Griffin or Athens did General Evans say hew old he was although he proved to ba very “touchy’ on the stil'j 'Ct. In Rom*, for the first time, he gave his ege and then failed to give the date of his birth. General Evans is * mar ried man, tiiough up in years, and should not throw r so much mys tery around his birth lav. In Warren county there are many Populists and the Warren tonClipper, a Populist organ, is booming Atkinson.— Macon News.

Do it “Sid” and tell Hall that the Hustler of Rome was there and that if five horns, two drums, fourteen “Jonahs,” 26 democrats and Max Meyerhardt constitute •‘a rousing ovation’’ that the Gen eral has “had em agin,” Judge Jo p l Branham is the choice of North West Georgia tor . United Staten senator, to fill th# unexpired term of the late lament ed, Senator Alfsid Holt.

And than to think of his getting a grip on Peffers whiskers, Oh mama I Brother McGehee, of the West Georgia News is a son-in-law of Judge J. T.

We do not charge that these facts have anything to do with the fierce opposition of our brother towards Atkinson but thev •» are facts all the same.—Merriwether Vindicator. Cipt. Tom Lyoas of Cartersville was in the city yesterday and said the Hustler that Bartow County was 40 to 1 for Evans and that of the six hundred voters in Cartersville Atkinson would only get three. He also claimed that there were but ten Congressmen from Georgia and each one would give Evans a thousand votes and the two senators would give forty or fifty thousand each. Atkinsoa had better come down—for Tom Lyon is a political prophet and a man of judgemeet THE OLD VETERANS. It is claimed by the supporters of General Evans that Mr. Atkinsou is seeking to stir up anti-eoufedei ate sentiment, and General Evans in his speech here said:‘‘The only use he (Atkinson) has for the old soldier is to get his vote.” Mr. Atkinson’s reply was a complete answer. He is as ley ala eonfederate as General Evans, his brother lost bis life at Bull Run. he has always fought for their rights and for tbire pensions, he voted against the Soldie ’s Home bill be cause h® wa■ opposed to putting them in a poor house to beg their , clothes and. food from a salaried mas 'er. From the way the vetecanu of Floyd county look at the question they do not agree with Gen. Evans in his saying that all Mr. Atkinson cared for the old soldiers w.i<« to get their votes Editor Byrd of The Hustler er Romehad an interview withone hun ’ died and twenty-nine of the Old Guards of Floyd, and out of that number one hundred and eleven ex pressed their determination to vote for Mr. Atkinson. Editor Byrd pub lished their names and no denial of his statement his been made. — Athens Banner. i - ■ • A CURIOUS LAW. The Republican party enacted a , prohibition law in Iowa ( and then pro ceeded to steadily disappear. Twice it f tiled to elect a governor, though before it had forty or fifty thousand votes to spare. At the last general election, however, it managed to gain full coutrole of the state government again, and the result is a new sort of local option The legislature has pass ed what is called the ‘mulct*’ bill. Prohibition remains the genet al law but a community may vote to disre gard the consti'uton, and when it has done so the new bill provides that places where liquor is »old shall nwt be “mulced’* by the authorities mere or less then S6OO-half te go to , the county and half to the state. The scheme is merely one to nullify prohi > bition in those corn nuuities where it is not liked, but some concession is made to the constitution. It requires 65 per cent, of the voters in the small er towns to establish the “mulct,’ the constitution thus being allowed something like 15 per cent, of the governing power in rural lowa In towns of 5,000 people or more, how ever the eonstiution does not coynt a bare majoity is enoagh to set it aside It will hardly la» denied by anv l O ly th it lowa takes a step backward in adopting such H Isw.—Macon Telegraph. ca amber)axx, b Eys'and Skin 31ntiEe«i Is a certain cure for Chronic Sore Tlvea -irtinulited hye Lids, Sore Nipples, I’iles, -.czenm.
