This is the season when ihe pro jiibitionist asks only just-ice in iiizzeu. All North West Georgia demo crats are proud of Bartows exhi bition of democracy.? In spite of men and money the “spcntaining’’is suffering sponta - neous combustinn. Ah there General •Smail pox has broken out in Chicago but it will not. remain small on account of the Chicago feet. Mclntosh says: As between ccomotives and box cars the com naonwrealers exhibit a tender at t achment. It was the potatoes eye that was •edimmed by tears when Jack frost put the English Lady pea in ‘the soup. Many’ along faced crank thinks he 'as religion, when in reality he ■inly needs about a case of the best Liver medicine.

If you loose your temper, re member that The Hustler of Rome is rhe best advertising me dium in North Georgia. Justice may be blind folded as tbe days of old but the bandage Ah yes ! The bandage is not al ways of the same texture. What has Evans ever done for democracy His only record is more than thirty years old and is a ‘lulu read it in another col- # ' umn 4ur devil says, as betwixt him sria his waterbury the average is go*d midling. ’ he often outruns the watch but it generally gets all the tick. ‘Comrades charge!” shouted -'mils Henry, the Anarchist, when ‘bo sentence of death was pronoun cod upon him. But the charger nayed from afar. Italy has a population of 270 o the square mile. Many of her son* get tangled up in snake juice «nd macaroni and see monkeys the bal ance of their lives. Madeline may never get Willies 15,000 into her pu se, all tne same Willie will never fly back to Con gress from Kentucky. Willie's wings is not a pair. After Noah’s Ark cut the cur rant and was grounded, it was Ham who monkeyed with the wires and had tne light cut out of the surface system of his line. Gold silver and copper wer» kuoAn to the Greeks in the time of Homer, but oxen were still the standard by which tbe commerce of inland nations were steer-ed. The Dahlonega Signal, inclined to the populist side of th* hou • wants to know: If Mr. Evans is so far ahead bow is it that so much money is being spent in his inter est? If Coxey's Army will only capture the train of argument now being “held up by the Senate”—they—the Cexeyites, are welcomed to a right of way to Halifax over the most direct route, American women are said to be growing taller while Uncle Sam’s boys are growing shorter. After a while it will be so much easier for Rube and Mary Ann to kiss and make ur>. The claim has been made that there is an ex-Conlederate Veteran in the Coxey Ainiies. The truth is, the old Confederates have “marched on Washington’ before and know that its a powerful poor way to get relief Hon. Win H. Flemming of Au gusta. will be in the legislative race from Richmond county . He w’ll not run on horseback and hereafter will enter a kicking match with the two legged ani mals. r The Constitution tried up-llill work for four years, and found it hard climbing, with barren results. Now that it is working the down- Hiil racket, it may be able to ac complish some;hing.—W or t h County Local. The latest is the report that a woman in Augusta slapped h r husband's jaws the other day be cause he expressed his dislike to the latest fashion plates. Now you see what the South is coming to —Senrie Gazette. Springtime has sprung, and our waterbury has lost its case, bowed 'is face in its hands while from its own spring the currant of Time drips, drips, drips in a sort of a cow tick on-a-cali-rope wail. Now is the time to subscribe. Democracy means majority rule, if it means anything; Is a mass meet ing at the court house, in the aity of Augusta for instance, democratic. verily, verily, Augusta is out Lantern ing Atlanta’s own ring. Gen. Evai s should feel proud of every vote he receives by such democratic? methods If any of our subscribers have a cow that will give over six gallons of milk per day, and will send her to our devil for a months trial, we rill be pleased to publish said devils affidavid and thus put h proud ®wner of the great milk shake factory in a proper light be fore the doubting public. Mr. Rankin of Gordon, was paraded before the public some time ago by the Atlanta papers as a leading legislature who opposed Mr. Atkinson. Now the Cackeo member of the Atlanta ring, pro poses to reward Mr. Rankin by making him congressman form the Seventh. The gall of it! General Evans could not meet Mr Atkinson on the stump again because of dissentions it might create in the democratic party —But what of the jumped up,cut and dried mass meet ings: three months ahead of the con vention? Will they have a tendency to find the farmers who wart prill a ies,to the State Democrac; J 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 ing by his party and fighting fer the relief of the people and hi will be returned there by a unan 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 ago wore enough garters to decor ate a barber pole. 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.” Inflamed itching, burning, crus ty a id scaly skin and scalps of in funis, soothed and cured by Johi. eon’s Oriental Soap.
