TAILIRA COBB AT COCHRAN.
Col. AY’ H. Mobley of Cochran was in
the city yesterday on his way home
to Cochran from Eatonton, where hs
had been on legal business.ln speak
ing of the recent speaking bv Messrs
Cobb and Roberts at Cochran, Col.
Alobly said that the Constitution’s re
port of the speeches and the crowd
was highly colored in Evans’ favor.
Col. Mobley says instead of the
ciowd being almost unanimous for
Gen. Evans that it was just the other
way, as by actus’ count there were
just eiShty-seven votes in the crowd
thirteen of whom were from Hawkins
ville.
Out of .he eighty seven votes fifty
seven were for Atkinson out and out.
Col. Mobley says if anybody doubts
this he can give names. He also says
that Cobb and Roberts refused to di
vide time with the Atkinson men on
the ground that arrangements were
iu thu hands of the committee which
would not meet until after the speak
ing where as the committee met on
the afternoon that the challenge was
’ssued.Col.Mobley says Pulaski is all
right for Atkinson.—Macon Tele
graph.
A VETERAN S REASONS.
Judge Lampkin, ex Ordinary ol
Gwinnett county,who left a leg on
the Petersburg battlefield, iu explain
ing his support of Atkinson says; I
ini for Atkinson for several reasons
I am a Democrat and believe in put
ing active, honest and efficient younu
ihen in office.
Mr. Atkinson worked hard for De
nocracy m 18J2. His experience ii_
i.he campaigns of that year gave him
i full knowledge of state politics, ami
is I believe we will have a hard fight
>n our hands this year. I thick At
kinson’s leadership will be needed.
He is a self-made man, brilliant,
honest and progressive. His experi
ence as a legislator for the state has
given him good opportunities to study
the needs of the people, and if we
elect him he will make one of the
best governors Georgia has ever had.
1 regard him as one of the purest
young men in the state. No powe>-
on earth can intimidate him, and no
dark influences can prevent him
from doing his duty to the people.
THE TWO RECORDS.
WHAT EACH CANDIDATE DID WHILE
IN THE LEGISLATURE.
Lon \\ \. Atkinson was a mem
ber of the legislatuie from Coweta
county from 1886 to 1894. Hon
C.A. Evans was State seuato
from Stewart county in 1859—60.
Here are the records the twomen
made, by which we impartially
judge their character as statesmen.

RB. WJi I bl’ BLING-“ANXIOUS.
fluo Mucon News headed its
leader on Tuesday with the fol
lowing sentences;
“The populists are anxious that
Mr. Atkinson should receive the
nomination for governor, for they
chink he can be easily beaten. He
has made such an aggressive cam
paign aud antagonized so many
different interests that they are
sure he could not poll the full
Democratic vote,”
Does the News remember how
the democracy of Georgia, under
the leadership of W. Y. Atkinson,
rolled up a majority of 80,000 in
the last campaign?
Has the News man suffered
some “calamity howler” to per
suade him that the third party ha?
forgotten that fight—and the rout
that ended the campaign.
Come, come, sweet Hal, let us
beg thee to keep thv shirt on and
cultivate Mr. Atkinsons acquaint
ance and you will not wonder at
him making an “aggressive cam
paign”—lts away of his. He is a
•'fighting democrat. See?
Montana is large enough to hold
the population of the entire earth
and then have but fifteen persons
to the acre.
If Mr. Atkinson had held that pr •
litical caucus at Macon, when he
went to attend Senator Colquitt’s
funeral, a howl would have gone up
to heaven from the Evans contingent
But as Gen, Evans was the man who
held the reception, it did’nt amount
to anything —Columbus Ledgtr.
Mr. Atkinson has no ring of
wealthy politicians at his baeK to see
after the details of his campaign—he
can’t even pay SI,OOO into a corrup
ion campaign fund (nor would if he
could) the fact is. his noble hearted
wife has been his stenographer and
private secretary since the campaign
opened, and the Evans p ipers are
■velcome to publish any of the letters
which she has written, and especially
hose that fall into the hands of Sup
posed fii nds. Mrs Atkinson will be
<at home” in the governors mansion,
after the next election. Let the men
who gets a letter, and dont appreci
ate it, remember this and call, Gov
ernor Atkinson will treat him well
and invite him to call again.
And to think of it! In the au
gust body of United States sena
tors one member has called anoth
er a liar! What has become of
senatorial dignity? Has the upper
house eommensed to go backward?
Will there be bloody duels?. —Au-
gusta Herald.
Perhrps so, the commonwealers
are crying for perce—and “poor
folks” seldom get what they cry
for, these days.
