ADMONITION.
Rouen sweet were male for dew,
Maybe she was wade for you,
Whisper In her ear so low,
If you love her tell her so,
Snow white 11111, s bend and nod,
Hearing love notes in the soil,
In your heart those same notes flow,
If you love her tell her so.
Wild birds sing forever this,
Life, and love are in a kiss,
While the roses are iu blow,
If you love her tell her so.
She's been waiting for that hour,
And, a smile just like a flower
into beauty bright will glow
When you love, and tell her so.

of a Gubernatorial campaign.
Shame! Sh. me!
Thirty percent of the telegraph
lines of the world belong to the
United States . The Chinee has
worked a corner on cloths lines,
while the third party has monop

Do the Evans people propose to
drag Decoration day, with all its
hallowed memories, into the pres
ent campaign? To read Max Mey
erhardt's appeal to the passions of
the Confederate Veterans, as pub
lished in Sunday’s Tribune, it
seems that that is a part of the
plan of campaign. Shame on such
infamoutH proceedings.
Is Decoration day tn be captur
ed by the Evans Ctub and turned
into a vote winning machine? In
t e name of the undying love we
cherish for the memory ot the gal-
Imt heroes who fell fighting, for
the Lost Cause, we call on the men
who “muzzle” and “muzzle” Max
Meyerhardt, to have hir,n with

The Atlanta papers are growing
frantic about the alleged “Atkin

taken up by the cross-roads cuc

Editor Blackburn of the Atlan
ta oaily Commercial enjoys a

Blackburn not only has grit in his
gizzard but loves fair play. Being
built that wav is always’red hot
pours broadsides into the Journa
and Constitution. We sympathize
with the plucky little editor and
enjoy hie broadsides—more than
does his cowardly opponents.
Max has slipped his “muzzle”
and is now going to elect every old
Confederate veteran in Georgia to
be governor of the state, at the
same tune. Mix seotns to believe
that a young Georgian cant honor
rhe memory of the gallant dead
without surrendering to a “Gene
ral” the chief office in gift of

Mr. Atkinson has been making
war on an Atlanta ring, but wheu
his ©wn Big Atkinson ring was
discovered it extended all over
Georgia—Griffin Call.
That just the size of it—bless
your poor old misguided “sore
head” eoul, and we trust you will
live to see the generous adminis
tration given Georgia by her nex
Governor, the Hou. W. Y, Atkin
son of Coweta.
In writing of the late Senator
Vance, of North Carolina the Phila
delphia Record says: ’’There never
was a Governor of North Carolina
who could more delightfully eater
tain the Govenorof south Carolina or
for that matter, any man or woman
who came within ear shot of his gen
ial personality than the late Senator
Vance. He could tell a story si that
the telling was more than the tale,
and he was as full of anecdotes as a
honeyecomb is full of honey.“
Rev. Clement A- Evans said in
Lome, that he “wouldtk know a ring
if he were to meet it in the road;”
Now he sees many of the people of
the state, including many ot the
Judges, Solicitors and members of
the legislature are for Atkinson and
he calls it a “Ring,“ After August
the 2nd. Mr. Atkinson, in showing
the Peachtree street man ‘ what de
j teated him,*- will divert the Generals
eye'from his war record long enough
to pointout the little “Atlanta Ring.”
And then the honest old soldier w 1'
admit that the Journal and Constitu
tion belonged to the deadly com
bine .

A COWARDLY STAB
It is stated that the editor of a i
certain Georgia weekly in North Ga- !
favored Gen. Evans for governor pre
vious to the meetmg of the superior
court ©f his county. After court ad
journed, the aforesaid editor became
an ardent supporter of Mr. Atkinson
The rumor goes furthur, and sa <
that theie are some indictments
| against the aTeged editor, and that
the solicitor had kindly passed these
cases over for the term.
Tne rumor goes furthur and states
that the solicitor is working for At
kinson's nomination. It is furthur n -
tnored that, tbv next legislature will
be asked to inquire into this little e
pistle,—Atlanta Journal
The above is as cowardly as it is
covert, but is well in keeping with
the Journals plan of campaign.
Were the above charges true, the
miserable editor of suah a miserable
sheet would still be more manly than
the Journals course in the present
campaign-
He, the creature of circumstances
yields to the iron will of a power
that holds him in its deadly' coil.
While flit Journals, boasting its
own powers and doing homage to no
•combination,“ bol lly faces every
element that dares assail the admin- I
isfration—except the Atlanta candi
date -the man who in his old age is
running on his war record and noth
ing else
Let the Journal name the weekly
it alludes to and also name the Solici
tor General, or withdraw its coward
ly insinuation. If you have the state
your own way, as you claim, why
dont you fight fair.
Major Bacon is to day the almost
unanimous chaice of our people for

question and his well known ability
