“The man wboee business is to

Madalin* may not have bean * pc-
Beeman, all the fame she ha* mon

Laurens is one of a majority of
Georgia countifrs that will semi
Atkinson delegates to the guberni -
torial convention. —Dublin Post.
Says the Dublin Post :
The Savannah New*, and Evane
paper, says there is no doubt that
the Evans strength around Grf
fin was weakened by rhe debate.
Got, and Mrs. Wm, J. Northen
ewle'orated the thirty-third anni
veraary of their marriage last
w«ek. The day was spent quietly
>t the mansion, but very happi'y.
The Constitution’s report of the
joint debate at Hawkinsville on yes
terday says about 2,000 people heard
the speakers and that “the applause
Was about equally divided ’ That
means two to one for Atkinson.
General Evans' assault on North
ern men who own papers in Georgia
and who oppose bis candidacy is not
in keeping with his reputation for
broad mindedness, >or will it hurl
the Northerners.
Now let papa Max. of the Moy
erhardt Evans Club of Koine, call
the club together and endorse the
General's views on the Atlanta-
Soldiers- II • me- I’o r- II ouse
Scheme.
Air. Mey&rhardt says he is think
ing of starting a daily paper—we
would suggest for it the name:
* Slipped, or the Daily Muzzier.’’
W« feel sure Max could keep it so
loaded that it would easily go off
half cocked. Now’ is the time to
•übscribe.
Mr. Atkinson in the joint discus
siu* at Ilawkiusvi le yesterday chal
lenged General Evans to continue
the debate and asked for two debates
in Atlanta—But Genera] Evans don't
want to loose his home county and
will nevi r consent Mark that predic

Grever br: nd in bis’ii. I. begins
to look like Grovar would “tare

The Boston T ranscript calls for
a revision of the law in Massa
chusetts relating to the legal age
of marriage. In that State a girl 12
and a boy of 14 may be legally
married if they obtain the consent
of their parents. The Transcript
declares that Italian ebildren are
frequently married under th* pro
visions of the law.
The Augusta Chroaicle rises to
assert most positively that the report
that Mr. Atkinson claims to h>iv« dug
the Suez Canal is absolutely without
foundation.—Griffin Call.
Ami y»t the democrats of Georgia
ein come as near proving that Atkin
aur, n ,-t only dug the can*!, b«t that
he built tl. Pyramids of Egypt as
the Evans Club people can that the
patron saiat of tueir “clubs” ever
rendered any material service to the
democratic party. As a democrat
where is General Evans’ record “at?’
ALFRED HOL'l COLQUITT.
With fragrant bloanit
And nodding plumes
And runeral pomp and glory,
The mournful train.
The dirge like strain,
The end of life's s range story.
In sad array

Who formed his legions trusty,
And wan anil worn
Those men who mourn

The world forgets

Sleep, sweetly sleep,
May angles keep

Thou Christian knigh-,
Thy fame e’er bright
In the hearts of those that love thee!
—M. M. Folsom, in Atlanta Journal.
Notwithstanding that mightv
'‘uprising” and “unanimous call’j
for General Evant, Club organiz

Atlanta to prop what remains of
that dilapidated boom.
OCR JOHN ENDORSED.
Hon. R, W. Everett, of Polk
county, is spoken of as a probable
candidate for the congressional
honors of this district. But let
it be understood that Congressman
Maddox has stood to his work
nobly aud the people ar» not will
ing to cast him ash* for i Might
Mr. Everett made a very good
officer, but the man who defeatr
John W, Maddox will have to be
up aud about, there is no
ing about that
Maddox is a democrat of thi
old school and claims uo relation
ship with this latter day heresj
that assumes the trapping but not
the substance of democracy.—Cal
houn Yahov.
EVANS. NOT IN IT.
The coureoeus of opinion seeim
to be that Gen’ Evans has gottei
decidedly the beet of his oppo
nent in these debates. It is clairu
»d as a foregone conclusion tbai
he will carry ever}’ county in
which a debate has taken plac~
Many who had been duped by th»
siilj’ tales set a float to injure Gen.
Evans found the error of theii
way and straightway sigmfie
their determination to join in
making him the next governor of
Georgia.—Macou News.
Now that dusettlehit ! If Gen
eral Evans, who has 100 counties
and more thnu 100 newspapers has
gotten the best of any joint debate
the reporters for the Evans papers
have mads a decidedly poor effort
in sho-wing it.
A* to “foregone concluions,” we
speak for Floyd, and assure broth
er Hal Moore that this county al
wei stands by a man who stands
by his party, and as we formed
Atkinsons acquaintance while he
was fighting for the party, aud en
ly met General Evans in the arena
of politics when he wanted some
thing for himself, we assure him
and especially bis relatives iu the
newspaper field, that “the General
flint in it in this section.” Let
; h’joint debate# be had iu every
e >uuty iu the state before the
campaign closes.
AIK 1 NEON'S STRENGTH.
•
If Gen. Evans is the spontaneous
choice of the people for governor
why all this ado by hia friends?
If the people be for General Evans
who can be against him? Why don't
bis friends go home and keep quiet;
why all this organizing of Evans clubs
all over the state? The veiy actions
of the General’s friends belie their
words. All this hurrah and go on is
for the purpose of muzzling public
opinion and deceiving the people.
The two men are on equal footing
—both aspirants for gubernatorial
honors, and the case is before the en
tire state of Georgia for arbitration.
The people will render their verdict
according to the merits or the respec
tive candidates. It is clearly a case
of bulldozing, but that kind of po
itical warfare is out of date,
It seems to us that it is aonsense
of a very cheap variety, to go to all
this trouble of organizing clubs and
blustering about to defeat a man that
has uo following anyway. But the
very fact that this is done is a confes
sion of tbe strength of Atkinson.—
Calhoun Yahoo.
THE HUSTLER OF ROME. FRIDAY MARCH 30. 1894
THAT IMIXIEL LETTER.
Mr. Atkinson in bi* speech it
Rome asked General Evans if he
(Gsnersl Evans) didn’t receive
x letter asking h in to make a
speech in behalf of democracy in
Emanuel county during the c*tn
paigN of 1894, to which letter an
answer was ssnt declining ths
invitation on the ground that his
ministerial duties prevented him
doing so.
General Evans made ne reply
ind silence is generally takrni for
an affirmative answer. If General
Svans as a minister can speak in
n s own behalf now why could’nt
he done so in 1892? —Athens Ban

SPARKS FROM GEORGIA.
The town of Dawson is building
up A number of new enterprises
will probably be established there.
ft is rumored that a company of
western capitalist have offered S2OO,
000 for the farm of Hon. James H,
Smith in Oglethrope and Madiesa
counties. This does not include any
of the fine stock on the place.
McDonough's cotton receipt for
the past season is smnsthing over six
thousand bales, against between four
and five thousand last season. It is
estimated the number of bales pro
duced in Henry county last year was
twenty-five or thirty thousand .
A man sued Newton county for sl,
000 becauss his buggy was turned
evsr on Wood’s bridge, throwing his
family in the river Tbe county com
missioners settled the suit by paying
him S6O.
The humbug of Chinese Sunday
schools are getting shown up pretty
clearly. In Chicago the s’ant-eyed
Mongols made love so persistently to
the young lady teachers that the
classes were put in charge of discreet
matrons Iu New Haven the Chinese
have boycotted the Sunday school
which they athnled simp’y because
a police sergeant whose wife was a
teacher raided one of their gambling
houses and arrested over sixty fantan
players.—Macon News.
If Gen. Evans i J o guileless that he
would not recogniza ring if he fennd
it in the middle of a road { as he.
claims, the he is too innocent for gov
enieor. He would become the easy
victim of all kinds of rings. The gov
