It may be of interest to note j
that of the sixteen men now on the
executive committee o* this county
at least ten are for IV Y Atkinson
for Governor.
This too in in spite of the fact ,
that the Evans Club has done
some of its best work in (hit di

It upiy also be of interest to
note, for it is a fact, that will be
demonstrated in due time, that
the masses of the rural districts
are nearly solid for Atkinson,
while in the city of Rome and the
Rome district the vote is now
decidedly in ti e favor of the young
statesman, from Coweta.
