“Our John”—known in congres*
as “Mi. Maddox of Georgia,” has
made a record of which the entire
state and especially the “Bloody
Seveuu*” may be proud. “Oui

Unlike his predecessor, Mr. Mad

form on which he was elected,

benefit of Gen. Evans.—Jesup

From the color of Max’s last

has compromised by calling Gen.
Ev ns a “Statesman.’’
The judiciary of Georgia is the
peer of that of any State in the
union. It is above suspicion. The
effort of Evans or any of his fol
lowing to smirch it with the tint
of collusion with politicians will
be resented at the home of every
member of the judiciary of the
State.—Savannah Dispaich.

The Atlanta papers are growing

a pretty clever piece of work to

way, but it won’t work —Buchan-

Atkinson talks very flippantly
o e the “Atlanat ring.” but if he is
not the ring leader of the biggest
ring in the State the people are
badly fooled.—Marien County

The Evans paper, that think
hat the people are fooled, is off its
cazipp. The people are not fooled
—Mr, Atkinson certainly is “the
ring-leader of the biggest ring
in the stat*—” and that ring is the
democratic party, and the people
are “in it” with A'kinson, and At
kinson jS “in it” with the people.
The Atlanta Journal reproduced
a back number agricultural article
from the pen of General Evans
some year ago, and is moved to
say editorially “the dignity, beau
ty and possibilities of life on the
farm are set forth in most fasci
nating terms.”—Why to-be shore!
And how much did the magazine
pay him for that exquisit article,
in which the soldier-preacher un
dertakes to give the farmer advice?
Should he be elected Governor be

FRANK HUFFAKER. A HUSTLER OF
ROME CARRIER.
The Hustler of Rome has among
its earner bays some of the bright
est and most enterprising of Rome*
younger citizenry. Only a few
days ago, after completely cover
ing his route, Jimmie Whitehead
discovered the Lytle Cave and
went into it 4* ft, looking for new
subscribers.
then last week Frank Huffaker,
another of The Hustler of Rome’s
“take it-yonder” staff, forges to
the front. Mast*r Frank entered
the literary field and on the sub
ject of “American Heroes,” chose
the name of Jefferson Davis, and
, wrote for the “Constitution Jr“ an
■ essary that captured second priz*
i —and this too in a contest where
I hundreds of the brightest little
men in the south had broken g»ose
quills.
Here’s the essay of Master Frank :
JEFFERSON DAVIS.
My hero, Jefferson Davis, who
held the reins of government in
that great struggle of ’6l-’64,
when, though ; defeated, brought
( glory and honor to Southern chiv
arly, was a strong man in every
sense of the word, His great geni
us and lofty moral character have
never been questioned except by
thos* slanderers, his brother ene
mies *ut side the Dixie borders.
He only, with his great menta
and moral endowments, with his
intense but ever gentle strength,
could have held our South so long
against such odds. Jefferson Da
vis, as brave and true a knight as
ever weilded a lance or had his
name emblazoned on history’s
pages! Though numbered among
earth’s mighty warriors, he was al
so a true “soldier of the cross,” and
when slandered by his enemies he
'ollowed the law of the gentle Naz
arene, who bad him do good for
evil.
With his matchless eloquence
and kingly presence,he graced our
senate hall, a perfect model for
lis own colleagues and those of
succeeding generations, not be
cause he was a southerner, but be
couse he was a man !
His rigid discipline, bis valor
and discretion proved him a born
leader of men. Those noble Miss
issippians, the gallant “Rifles,”
with their great leader, were the
heroes of the day and will live for
ever in the hearts of our country
men.
Ever true to his principles he in
the senate, never voted for a bill,
unless he could heartily endorse ii
as the best measure for his coun
try’s good. His faithful efforts to
secure an able United States army
met with the best success and
many of hie beet measures art
now enjoyed by us—alas! by some
with thankless hearts!
In the war with Mexico he was
the leading officer of his brave
even to recklessness, dashing
against the Mexican army with
his handful of men, but with the
shock of a thuuderbol and the
fearlessness of a lion.
A certain officer made a plan to
form the men int» a V when th?
Mexicans should charge, so that
rushing into it at the upper and
open space they wouldj' e surround
ed and cut pieces. All the other
officers sneered at the plan; Davis
adopted it, ai d with it did great
execution.
Always first in the charge was
he ; at the front of his column in
the midst of the storm of shot and
shell he must have looked like the
spirit of battle 1
Jefferson Dovis was born in
Christian county, Kentucky, June
3rd 1808, While yet a babe his pa
rents moved to Mississippi, where
most of his youth was spent on a
farm. At the age of sixteen he was
appointed l o the military acade -
my at West Point, which he entap
ed in September 1824. In 1828 he
was graduated and entered servica
with the rank of lieutenant until
1833.
It would be Impossible to men
tion many of his glorious deeds of
his eventful life in this short
sketch; *t would also be useless,
fur they are written in fadeless
cha?a4t*r4 on the hearts of the
sons of th* south.
Much against his will he was
elected president of the conLdur
acy at Montgomery, Ala., on Fel
uary 15, 1861. None bu s a master
hand could have governed our
southland in those dark days of
poverty and almost despair.
As a father fighting for food for
his starving children, did our
chieftain tight for his country,e
interest.
At the fall of the confedercy he
was taken a pii ouor t"» Fortress
Monroe, where he was most cruelly
treated but like a grand old oak
which has st*od the Bt»rms oi
centurgies, hi* dauntleaa spirit did
□ot «ven quail, Was he a traitor?
Let not that word be whispered
where southern blood flows I
After the war his life was spent
at his home in Mississipi.
Like the cause he loved so well,
he died, defeated, but not van
quished ; conquored, but victorious
still! A brave warrior, a Chris
tian gentleman, a true heroe, he
lived and died the idol of his peo
ples hearts.
