Mcln’osh thinks that probably one reason why the Coxeyites steal trains is that they don’t propose tc walk “clean through” to Washing tor. The Tattnall Journal says : “The political complexion of the United States senate is made up of 44 democrats, 38 republicans and 3 populists, with 3 vacancies.” Let’s see. is Gordon’s ssat count ed?—Jerup Sentinel. A veiled woman has been seen at various places along Coxey’s route. Possibly she is the Mareyed goddess of road reform.—Thomas ville Advertiser. Net so, the lady in question is eyetber Mrs. Lease’s Husband, or Queen Lil, traveling in cog. When a candidate anywhere in the state announces himself fu the legislature he invariably states that he is for Morgan. If he did not he would have no show or election.

Maddox of Georgia,” has made a record of which the entire state and especially the “Bloody Seveuu*” may be proud. “Oui John” is certain to succeed himself. Unlike his predecessor, Mr. Mad dox has remained true to the plat form on which he was elected, “I’d like to go and see them in dustrious soldiers march through town,” said a Presbyterian farm er, “but I can’t get enough men to do my spring ploughing.”! am try ing to do the work of three men. and I ain’t got time.’’—The above is going the rounds and furnishes food for thought. Max Meyerhoardt. of Rome is trying to convert Memorial day into a political occasion for the benefit of Gen. Evans.—Jesup Sentinel. From the color of Max’s last tub of slush we think he has be come ashamed of that effort and 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. —“ ■ ' ————y The Atlanta papers are growing frantic about the alleged “Atkii - son Ring’’ and the cry has been tak< n up by the cuckoo press. It s a pretty clever piece of work to ry and divert the public attention from the Atlanta politiaus in this way, but it won’t work —Buchan- nau Messenger. 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 Patriot. 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 cause his title as “General” sold a magazine artyfle for him? Truely th* boomers are hard pressed for argument, | THE HUSTLER OF ROME, MONDAY APRIL 30. 1894.

It is figured that the total council fees expended for and against the col lection of his claim during the thirty •ix years it has been pending amount •d to about $2,000,0t0.

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.
