The Georgia counties seems to
have “minds of their own” on the
political questions of the day,—
Augusta Herald.
You bet they have, and if any
one doubts your statement just re
fer them to the Constitution.
The sensation of the campaign,
to date, is the fact that General
Evans has joined the fighters, or
ganized his clubs and gone to the
front—fighting fur—General Ev
ans. Democracy needs more loyal
♦nd unselfish blades to lead her
hosts,
Here’s the practical view that
Editor Cain takes of the situation ;
Che News believes Atkinson is
better qualified for the governor
ship than Gen. Evans, because
his opportunities to study ques
tions of state policy have been
better.
Over in Floyd county the woods
are alive with condidates for the
legislature. Several have already
announced, and numbers of others
are feeling the political pulse of
the dear people. Times are going
to be lively in old Floyd,—Chat
tooga News.
If General Evans is nominated bv
the Democrats, and Tom Watson by
the Populist, there will be no longer
a dodging of the question. The Gen.
will have to meet the Populistic lead
er face to face on the stump, or else
give the reason why—Gordon Citi
zen.
Let General Evans and the Con
stitutio i name the judges and solici
tors who are ringsters. Do it General
through the Cons itution, and even
little “me tro’ organ in Georgia will
echo it promptly. Besides, the wool
hat boys and old privates want to
know “whc” you mean
There are August individuals who
regard themselves as born leaders
ami who believe their influence
should controll all men and on all

eider it an unpardonable sin for any
one to criticise their political action .
If there is a man in Rome that
this shoe tits, he should marvel fur
ther or make up his mind to stand
up and face his oponents. We have

THE HUSTLER OF ROME. FRIDAY APRIL 27. 1894.
Perhaps Max will slip his “muz
zle” again n-xt Sunday and ring
iu another bucket of sluch, about
why memorial day should be drag
ged into this campaign to help
out General Evans, the Atlanta
Ring Candidate who is running
solely on his YVar record.
The New York Herald has made
a canvass of Col. Breckinridge’s
district with a view to ascertain
ing h s chances for being returned
to congress. The published result
indicate that he can not return.
His district is democratic, two to
one.
It has been discovered that the
Milky Way in heaven was the result
of the cow jumping over the moon.—
Augusta News.
Thats a bully way of expressing it,
but did she plannit before she star
ted upward or just steer her course
ac-cidentally?
And now the Constitution has
reached that point ia its desperate
game, where it must quote from
such little 2x4 sheets as the South
ern Argus. The jig is up and ‘he
Evansites know in their hearts
that fighting democracy has elect
ed—the best man —W, Y. Atkin
son for Governor.
Back of the hue and cry raised
by Gen. Evans, the Constitution
and the “me too" fly-up-creeks»
about the Mythical Legislative
ring, the fact remains uncontrov
erted thet General Evans contrib
uted SI,OOO to the big campaign
fund raised among the Atlanta
Ring politicians; and all their
bluster will not draw the fire of
the Wool hats at such cerruptive
proceedings.
The Executive Committee of
the Max Meyerhardt Evans Club,
thoroughly organized and hard at
work proposes to carry Floyd coun
ty. They have committee’s at work
thoroughly canvassing the county
for recruits—“ Spontaneous” is it?
Now watch Floyd go for Atkinson
by a rousing big majority; and
that without an organization too.
There is a law in Pennsylvania that
declares guilty of misdemeanor any
person who wilfully states, delivers
or transmits, by any means whatever
to the manager, editor, publisher or
reporter of any newspaper or periodi
cal, any libelous statement concerning
any person or corporation,and the
penalty is a fine not exceeding SSOO,
or imprisonment not exceeding two
years, or both.
The most widely SBperated
points between which a telegram
can be sent are British Columbia
and New Zealand. The telegram
would cross North America, New
Foundland, the Atlantic. Eng
land, Germany, Russia, (European
and Asiatic,) China, Java and Aus
tralia. It would make nearly a
circuit of the globe, and would
traverse over 20,000 miles in doing
so.
The Atlanta Constitution is
wasting a good deal of ink in
showing that the Atlanta politi
cians are not supporting Atkinson.
Everybody knows they are run
ning Gen. Evans. The same Con
stitution tearfully tells it’s readers
that the ring embracing the peo
ple in every county in the State is
supporting Atkinson. So accord
ing to the Constitution it is the
big people’s ring from all over
G orgia that is opposed to the rule
of the At.anta politicians. Anoth
er Daniel confessing judgement.
Meriwether Vindicator.
The Evans leaders are rushing
the counties that they feel eure
for their man to act at once so as
to revive the drooping hopes of
the discouraged followers. These
leaders insisted upon an early
nominating convention. Foiled in
that they are urging early selec
tion of delegates because they hear
so much of changes all over the
State from Evans to Atkinson.
1 hey hope to counteract the ava
lanche to Atkinson by an early se
lection of delegates. This may be
best for Evans but how about its
fairness and tendency to harmo
nize the party?—Meriwether Vin
dicator. _3
I The Macon Telegraph made
about a halt column comment cn
Editor Co iper’s “attempt to an
swer” Hon. W. J. Neel. This morn
ing the Tribune “assaults and at
tempts to c mmit a battery” on
the Telegraph and says the latter
had written a'-column and a half.”
We are of the opinion that Editor
Cooper thought that it was about
five columns before he got through
reading it.
“If Gen ra 1 Evans should be
nominated he will never be Gov
ernor unless he recaives the active
support of the who are now
being called ringsters and trick
sters. Wherever you find an active
enthusiastic, working democrat,’in
nine cases out of ten you find an
Atkinson man. If you take this
county over, town and country, it
will be found that there is nodoubt
a >out the truth of this assertion
in Polk county. These men,just af
ter being called tricksters for sev
eral months might not be disposed
to enter with much enthusiam, the
fight in favor of Gen . Evans.” —
Cedartown Standard.
BEC AUS E TH E POPULISTS SA I SO.
A special from Reynolds to the
Thomasville Enterprise says:
“After talking with a great many
of our people from different sec
tions of the country. 1 find that
General Evans will carry Taylor
over Mr Atkinson nearly 2 to 1.
The Pjpulists think that if Gen.
Evans is nominated he will be
overwhelmingly elected, but if
Colonel Atkinson should gain the
nomination they think they would
have a fighting chance.” —Macon
News.
Well, well, well! Hall Moore
has certainly got ’em again—else
he would never swallow the above.
Actually letting his political enemy
(ell democrats which leader they
should send out. Why Hal were
you, like “Uncle C em,” asleep all

WHAT EACH CANDIDATE DID WHILE
IN THE LEGISLATURE.
Hon W Y. Atkinson was a mem
ber of the legislatuie from Coweta
county from 1886 to 1894. Hon
C.A. Evans was State senator
from Stewart eounty in 1859—60.
Here are the records the two men
made, by which we impartially
judge their character as statesmen.

A DESERVED COMPLIMENT
A sweet-hearted Richmond girl
of great mental and spiritual de
velopment, who has just read ‘‘An
Apocalyspse of life,” is so enthu
siastic over the work that she de
clares it is sublime enough to
“niak haloes about one’s head.”—
Richmond (Va) Star,
The above is one of the many
moat complimentary notices give
Col. Walter S.Cheney s Apocalypse
of Life, and to our minde it is as
pretty a criticism as it is appro
priate. The girl who made that
remark'has undoubtedly read th*
book and underatood the great
beauty of it. Rome may well fe«l
proud of the brilliant writer and
learned scholar who has furnished
th > world a book that will become
as standard as Pilgrims Progress
SOUTH WEST GEORtIA.
The Albany Herald, strictly
non partizan, refutes the claim of
the Evanescent boomers, that
West Georgia is solid for Evans
Editor Mclntosh says: “W« don’t
know how it is iu other sections
of the State, but the Herald does
know a thing or two about the
politics of Souhwest Georgia, ai d
we do not hesitate to give it as
our candid opinion tha>t in the
present gubernatorial campaign
the Second Congressional district
or a majority of the counties com
posing it, are very, uncertain as
between Gen. Evans and Col. At
kinson.
There is an utter lack of enthu
siasm for either of these gentle
men, and the one who does the
most work or the best work be
tween now and July will get the
delegates to the Democratic con
vention. That “spontaneous up
rising” which brought out Gen.
Evans in midwinter never reach
cd this neck of the woods, and the
tall statesman from Coweta comes
into this part of the field on an
equal footing with him.”
