Everybody who gets this paper is expected to pay for it as we car ry no deadhead list, Respectfully, Phill G. Byrd. (Editor.) Mayor McDonough, of Savannah refuses to permit Sunday baseball in the Forest City. McDonough is a brick. The Columbus Ledger says: “Lynchburg, Ya., has a new paper sailed the Daily Earth. Os course everybody wants it.” The Trib me is for Evans—that means that Rome and Floyd conn ty are against him. The Tribune is a “Jonah,” for proof, look up its histo ly. Natches, Miss., is the home of a 'o who claims to be 109 years and who is still in the enjoy tof health. H* g >es regularly ' is work every day. 1 The people of our county seem to favor Major A. O. Bacon for United States senator from Geor gia. Major Bacon is a true Demo crat and worthy of the honor jf the people should see fit to bestow it upon him.—Jonesboro News. Senator Gordon will deliver his famous lecture, “The Last Days of Confederacy,’’ in-Columbus on the night of the 28th. —Penny Press. In the mean time Pat Walsh will hold down both seats in the Senate. General Gordon should re sign. Probably the meanest man that ever scuttled a ship, now lives a Creston, Is. He courted a school teacher ’till she taught him all she knew, and then he jilted hei and went to practicing law. He ought t( die with his beets on, — Macon News. In union there is strength. Now all pull together and make a Evans landing.— Augusta News. The above coming from the city of Augusta—the home of one Bill Flemming, sounds a little bit like Atkinson was making inroads upo the Richmond county boomers. We don't exactly understand the ituation in .Savannah.—Augusta s Herald. Savannah, like nearly all the balance of rhe State, is for Atkin ■ son—be patient and jou will un derstand in due time. The Evans’ men in Augusta want to hear Mr. Atkinson, —Au gusta Herald. We don’t wonder—why even the Atlanta boomers are growing anx ious to hear a Statesman’s speech and are thinking of inviting the standard bearer of the wool hats and privates. The New York World ventures the suggestion that Breckinridge would make a coming Ka sas pol iticien. No woman will ever dare to run against him. —Brunswick .

Editor to Foreman of the Gub ernatorial Bluff. —I want you to run in the list of Evans papers again.--Forema '.— We’ve been us i ing that list over and over again and besides we know that there are some mistakes m it. Editor — That’s all right. The big papers may jump on the mistakes and advertise the Bluff. Run the list in and keep it standing. Tribune please copy. It seems that the question of Mr. Seifert’s Democracy's yet in doubt. As he is a New Yorker he is probably a mugwump. A mug wump is all right so long as he continues to be a mugwump.— Tinies Advertiser. Mugwump or no mugwump, if Mr. Seifert has voted the straight Democratic ticket for eight years he has the whip on the Atlanta c°ndidate who is running od his war record. Candidate Atkinson is quoted as having said that he had “set the woods afire and the wind is blow ing his way.” Ye«, and be has burned all his timber and has nothing left but wind. —Macon News. This is about as near the truth as the Macon News or the “Morn ing Jonah” of Rome can strike Mr. Atkinson said: “The woods are on fire and the wind is in our favor.’ As to General Evans, he las never had any timber and the i wind has been a political cyclone ] “agin 'ini frum the fust.” t THE HUSTLER OF ROME. THURSDAY APRIL 19. 1894. Mil JONE’S “ONE WAY.” ‘ There is but one way to be honest. Never say you can do a thing until you knew you can do it, and after you have said you w aid < o ' knowlr g y .1 could do it. then let nothing come up be tween your word and its fulfill ment that would divert the mind or euterUre with the veracity of your statement, That is strict hon esty. Nothing else is. Let the above sentence take hold upon memory and if you abide by that rule of honesty you will find that your neighbor will trust you and God will honor you. ’ —Sam Jones ITS A WAY HE HAS The Albany Herald, one of the few papers that has shown absolutely no preference in the g beruatorial race, thus records in its local column a local symptom of a condition that is general all over the State. , ( Hon, W. Y. Atkinson arrived in the city yesterday morning on the 11 o'clock Columbia Extension train He remained here until 2 o'clock when be left, in company with Mr J. D, Pope, on the B. & W. train for Tilton, where he made a speech in the afternoon. During his short stay in the city Col. Atkinson met a large number of his old friends and made a great many new ones. There is no doubt but that the Colonel is growing in popularity in Albany anc Dougherty. GENERAL EVANS, RECORD IN THREE WARS General Evans made a good soldier during the late war and stuck by his colors to the last. This is very much to his credit. ti’ n'Evans enlisted in another armv after the Confederate war—the army of Christ —engaged in making war on him who would drag all mankind down to eternal woe. This was very much to his credit. Ger, Evans deserted this noble army by having himself superanuated. and is now engaged in a fierce battle in slums of politics—en engaged in violent attacks on the personal char acters of individuals whose only offenses, so far as it is apparent to the public, is that of opposing Gen. Evans’ election as governor. This is very much to his discredit. • OUR JOHN” THE FRIEND OF THE MASSES. J In the following editorial the Marietta Journal, one of the best . week Les in North Georgia, ex presses the sentiment of nine teenths ot the people in the Sev . enth Congressional district: “Hon John W. Maddox is stand ing square by the people in Con gress. II > is always at his post of . duty’. He worked and voted for j the free coinage of silver; he ad -3 vocated the repeal of the ten per c ‘lit on State banks and the in ) coine tax; he believes in the prin } ciples of making the tariff low ou . Hie necessaries of life. He has , proved himself, in Congress, the I earnest advocate and friend of the , common people. He has stood by , every plank in the Democratic platform, and has made a fine rep utation for his first term in Con- • gress ” BUT WHAT WOULD MADGE HAVE DONE. There it no evidence yet that W. C. P. Breckinridge was born t« be hanged, but in these days he perhaps sometimes wishes he had not escaped hanging when he was threatened with it. General S. C. Burbridge, who commanded the military department of Kentucky in 1864, says in one of his reports 1 “I captured two spies,Dr.Robert J. Breckinridge’s sou and son-n-law during 1864, who had maps ©n their persons and who undoubted ly would have been hanged, but the President (Lincoln) pardoned them on account of the extraordi nary services done for the coantry by Dr. Breckinridge.’’ The general says the colonel would have dan gled at the end of a rope within half an hour but for the timely arrival of executive clemency. As between base-ball goose eggs and swuuken political booms. Hal ' Moore is having a record breaking time of it. Colonel W. Y. Atkinson reached j Atlanta yesterday morning, ehatted with some of his active suppoiters here dined nt the Kimball and left, in the idternoon He's cheerful and con fident and says he has been ‘ *king things ensv for the past two weeks by averaging a syeech a day—Atlanta Journal. Frank Norment, one of the victi i s of the Darlington, S. C, dispensary tragedy was an insurance agent He left, a young wife and three srnnll > children, and only a nominal ©state fortheir support. The widow’has been retain das their agent by the insurance companies, Mrs Norment represented, has opened an office and will conduct the only insurance busi ness in the state managed by a woman It, is said that it is a Populist 1 who is getting together the attacks on Gen. Evans’ legislative record —Augusta Herald. Were that true it would be all the more reason why tho Atlanta candidate should be downed in ►ha primaries.’Democracy it «n titled to a leader whose record i» above reproach, and in W. Y. At kinson she has the man. r ——————— > The Daily Savannah Dispatch ? is one of the i • lieet likeliest ’ young dailies ever launched on J Tourna’ist’C waters iu Georgia. May she sail on schedule time for ever and a day. The young women of Cromwell, lowa, have signed a compact not r to marry any man who isn’t intel !’ ligent, honest, industrious, good natured, cleanly in person mid ap parel. healthy, sober, church mem »’ hers and total abstainers from li quor, profanity and tobacco. — Cahimbus Ledger. Dollars to doughnuts, those young ladies will die old maids. lowa girls should be lectured on the subject. “Beggars cannot be ' choosers.” i 1 The editor ot the Griffin News fondly imagines he is an issue in j the gubernatorial campaign, be cause General Evans stooped to s notice that paper’s attack on him because he was a Confederate of ficer.—Griffin Call. , The Editor of the Griffin News has been treated shamefully by your leader, brother Call, but be it said to the credit of Georgians the narrow minded spirit which permitted the assault is not en dorsed by the masses. And since we are taking brother Call, tell us why you run a cut of General Ev ans made from an o’den time r photo? Why dont you get a mod ern edition? r BELIEVED IN HOG AND HOMINY, Our 4-year-old Young America i was seen busily digging a hold in 9 the yard a day or two ago, and 1 when asked by his mother what he 1 was doing replied : “I’m fixing to r plant s he pig.” “What are you go ‘ ing to plant the pig for?’’ “I want us to have a heap of hogs.”—Calhoun County Courier. ; Near Brenham, Tex., two girls were savagly attacked by an ani inal which had the appearance of , a wild cat; but after a fierce battle , the girls came off victorious. The Tribune seems to have swapped editors, and the told blooded Statesticiau give room to the merry hearted son of gout from Gorpou. Winter has passed and spring has sprung. Luck to the “Jonah.” In another column we announce today the name of Major R. T. Fouche, who offers his services to his county and who, if elected will make Floyd a representatrve of whom she may well be proud. Major Fouche is not a stranger in the legislation halls of the State of Georgia for he has a record as a law maker is well as a lawyer and in either or both he stands “away up.’’ The peeple of Floyd know Bob Fouche—and love and respect him.
