THE HUSTLER OF ROME, TUESDAY MAY 1. 1894.
- . -.-, ■ » , M
Editor Reville asks: Doon Gen.
Evans charge any state judge, so
licitor or member of the legisla
ture that will agree to support Ev
ans for governor as a riu_ster or
political schemer? Strange that
these officials should be all right
when for Evans and all wrong
if for Atkinson.
John Maddox is in Washing
ton at his post of duty. He is
there on the same platform on
which he was elected. He is stand

imous nomination and a walk over
•lection, “Mark that prediction.’
After watching David Bennet.
Hill’s erratic course in the United
State Senate, it makes us shuddei
to think that he was even men
tioned for the Presidency two
years ago. What a ridiculous
plight the Democratic party would
be in with Hill nt the head of the
Administration ! —Newnan Her
ald.
The Atchison Globe says : “It is
a fad for girls to make a biide i
garter, which she wears to be mar
ried in and restores to the ownei
afterward, The owner, by wear
ing it, will receive an uffer of ma -
riage within a year. A bride wh<
was mariied in Atchison a w. *k

All over the State the people and
papers are still demanding proof 01
tbe charge made by Gen. Evans
against the judges and solicitors
General of Georgia. The longer the
failure to produce proof continues,
the greater grows tndignaticn that
such a charge should be made. It
threatens to overthrow what little is
left of the General's spontaniety—
Griffin News.
The Talbotton News says, “Dis
tinguished men who heard Hill.
Cobb, Toombs and others in their
best days said they never surpass
ed the address of General Evans
at Hamilton.’’ Shades of the migh
ty dead, did you ever decline
to meet a rival candidate on the
stump? General Evatis is no more
like these mighty giants of the
hustings than the News man is
like Solomon. —Meriwether A in
dicator.
All honor to Solicitor Fite and
Judge Milner! They do not belong
to the “mixers,” the “men who
control” for Atkinson ! They hold
their official positions free from
suspicion of political jobs. - Dal
ton Argus.
Does Shaver thus boast to the
world that Millner and Fite are
for Evans? Will the Argus name
us a Judge or a Solicitor General
in Georgia, who is a mixer. “Put
up or shut up,”
It must be a consolation to Gener
al Evans “old confederate hea±t”and
a comfort to his ministeral soul, to
pause and think of the holy work of
corruption that the Atlanta ring is
doing with his sl.oot. contribution,
while his pasizans in order t< J secure
hie eletion are ordering ‘Jumped up’
mass meetings iu the cities and town
in which the busy farmer in the dis
tant fields have no voice. General, we
congratulate you or the party of the
methods being used by your friends
and the political record which,though
late in life, you are making for your
salf.We also congratulate the people
in advance for the defeat that await
you on August the 2nd.
It would be a pity for Mr. Atkin
son not to get even a complimen
tary vote, but it seems that he will
not—Augus'a Chronicle.
The reason he will not is because
the “Ringsters of Richmond” took
snap judgement against the demo
crat who made ten speeches in the
Tenth in the Watson-Black fight
of '92, his opponent being a man
who failed to accept an invitation
to speak. A mass meeting, with
nine days notice in a county
where 12,000 votes were polled
and less than 4,000 polls account
ed for in the comptrollers office!
That’s democracy aint it? All the
same Atkinson will be Georgias
next Governor.
Dr. Henry Carlton, of Athens,
one of the most gifted men and
brilliant orators in the Stat. , it is
said, will enter the democratic
gubernatorial race. It he does, he
will make things lively.—Dalton
Argus-
There now ! Listen at that cap
bust, after the big Evans’ dailies
had done spiked the Carlton
masked battery, which they had
undertaken to bring into action.
Oh Shaver, how could you?
In every county, to date, where
the executive committee of the
county is for Evans, early mass
meetings have been called, In
•very county where Atkinson men
control the executive committees,
primaries have been ordered. At
kinson democrats are willing for
lhe choice of the people to be nom
ihated . Evans people are for Ev
ans nomination and believe the
fighting stock in Atkinsons ranks
will elect a nominee, no matter
who he is or how he was nominat
ed. Evans has bunched the politi
cians but the people will cci tr 1-
and Atkinson will be nomimtad
nd elected.
Gen. Evans has compared him
self as a soldier to Lee, as a preach
er to Mell. It rests with one of his
enthusiastic supporteis in Hous
ton county to compare him to tbe
Great Master, which he does in
the Fort Valley. Leaders as fol
lows:
All hail the power »f Evan’s name,
Let Houston’s people come:
Bring forth the man, the people’s choice,
And crown him governor of all.
The general’s friends are gradu
ally progress! jg. —Macon Tele
graph. .
And it is the general's people
who have condemned Mr. Atkin
son tor sacrilege, because forsooth
he yielded to the call of democra
cy and entered the field foi the Gu
bernatorial nomination.
THE TWO RINGS.
“The Atlanta ring consists,” as
Col. Evan Howell would say “of
me, my son Clark, Tom Cobb and
Frank Rice, we four and no more.”
The Journal, an Evans paper
says, “Mr. Atkinson has been
making war on an Atlanta ring,
but when his big Atkinson ring
was discovered, it extended all
over Georgia.”
Then the Atkinson ring takes
in'the whole state, the hundred
Evans counties and tbe people
thereof, nothing being left out ex
cept tbe Atlanta politicians and
their few “spontaneous” satellites.
The difference between the two
is so great that “he that runs may
read” and the wayfaring man
though a fool cannot err in se
lecting the people’s choice. —Meri-
wether Vindicator.
HAM IN SOUTH WEST GEORGIA;
For many weeks the friends ol
General Evans have been claim
ing Southwest Georgia as solid for
their man ; so strongly have they
urged their claims that iho Atkin
son men have conceded that sec
tion but, now comes one H. W
J. Ham, better known m tbe days
of the third party war as “Snolly
goeter” Ham,' a man who was
found, always in the front, and
I ike W. Y, Atkinson, in the thick
est of the fight and Ham, from his
lecturing tour says : “Up in North
Georgia they tell you all Middle
•nd Southern Georgia is for Evans
solid. When I got down here 1
found that it w r as not true, and
the lonesome Evans men say all
North Georgia is solid for Evans.
You know how that is. I have
learned that the whole business is
bluff, bold bluff with nothing be
hind it.
Take three counties I have been
in during the past week. Johnson
county will go for Atkinson. The
Evans men in Atlanta claim Wash
ington as an Evans stronghold.
Atkinson Will carry it with a
whoop.
Jefferson they say is Evans out
and out. He will not touch it with
a forty foot pole, and so on through
tbe list. I did not get this infor
mation by hunting it up, I am n~t
bothering with politics, it just
comes from the folks, the every
day people I meet in the road and
on the train. I haven’t seen a
“judge” or a “solicitor” since I
left home.
“Put it down in your note book
that I told you over two months
before the convention that Gener
al Evans would not carry forty
five counties iu the State, and
that Atkinson will have two votes
to his one in the convention.”
OUR JOHN WILL SUCCEED
HIMSELF.
The suggestien of the friend of
> Mr. Rankin that he make the race
1 for congress seems to be meeting
j with much favor.
i The papers and the people of
1 the seventh district are taking
, very kindly to ihe suggestion and
- Mr - Rankin’s friends say that he
• will run. —Atlanta Journal.
j The Journal knows about as
. much about “the people” in the
e Seventh as it missrepresents “the
s papers” in said district.
r The Journal, iu its blind alia 'i-
- auce to Cleveland, would like to
- seo Judge Maddox turned down
- because he has had the hardihood
d and effrontery, to do a little in
terpreting of the Chicago platform
for himself.
Let the Journal paste one thing
- in its hat, and that is that Hoke
e Sn i'.h’s Atlanta Cuckoo will never
- control the woo; hat buys of the
• Seventh. Let Mr. Rankin run—h«-
j has that right, but the man who
- opposes John Maddox this fall
will suffer an overwhelming de
feat. “Mark that prediction.”
