Commissioner Bradwell has issued 5 circular fixing Saturday, June the 2 as the day for bolding examinations >r teachers for the common schools throughout the gtate. In the Gordon County Citizen Messres Taylor and Wilson art giving the people of Gordon county one of the best, brightest and clean est news papers the county has evei known, that the Citizen will succeed goes with out saying. The Tribune says: “It is learn ed that Mr. Atkiusou will speak here on Friday night.” Will the Tribune inform us “who” impar'. ed the lie to them? Let the Tri bune break its record by making j, fair fight, and then by support ing the nominee. If General Evans’ mend, L N Trammell, orothersof his friends, say the Atlanta Nabobs and cor ruptiouists, undertake to buy up a poor mans vote, how on ear: I does that make “a foul slander which muse be charged to W, Atkinson? Let the morning “Jo nah” explain- The Marietta Journal rises to r mark: The Atlanta Constitution, w. trust, will quit slobbering over tin Populists now since it sees its so called “dissatisfied democrats” don’t come back into the Demo cratic party worth a cent. Gen. Evans should be nomiua ted because he is the standard bearer of the people, and not the politicians.—Max Meyerhardt. In contributing SI,OOO to the corruption “missionary” fund ol the Atlanta Evans Club, what manner of heathen does Max think *he Rev. C. A. Evans was seeking to lead? Please answer. General Evans should be nom inated for Governor, because he is thoroughly equipped to fill the office with credit to himself and honor to the commonwealth. — Max Meyerhardt. We challenge you to the records of the two men. —If General Ev aus has any democtatic record, either before or since the war, it is ‘time for it to be trotted out. General Evans should be nomi nated because he is free from all entangling alliances, having no political friends to reward and no political enemies to puunish. Max Meyerhardt. And yet there are hundreds oi the best people in Rome —people who know Max, who believe that he is making the Evans fight iu Floyd that he may again become Judge of the City Court. Gen. Evans should be nominated "because he is a man of stainles ß charrcter, upright life and unswerv ing integrity.—Al ax Meyerhardt. VI e thank God that there are tens of thousands of such men in old Georgia today, and that among the hundreds who are far more able han Rev. C. A. Evans, is one by the name of W. Y. Atkinson, a man pool in this worlds goo Is but rich in statesmanship, which is an accom plishment undeveloped in the Atlai. a Candidate. For further pro< fs search the records. A woman s eiug a divorce through the courts at Detroit, Mich , announced in her complaint that her husband once said that he hoped to live to dance over her grave. * General Evans should be nomina ted because he is not the candi date of any ring, clique or combi nation, but is running solely on his rm rits. Max Meyerhardt. How is it then that he found it necessary to contribute SI,OOO to ’the Atlanta Rings corruption fund, a portion of which has been sent into Telfair, Hall. Clinch and Milton? Does “bis merits” mean his and Atlanta's money? Please answer. Max Meyerhardt says;Gen. Evans should be nominated because he is a hero of the lost cause, a gallant ex- soldier a follower of Lee and Jackson,who bravely fought be neath the stars and bars. ‘‘There are thousands of brave old heroes in Georgia who have all these qualifications and more—For since the days of reconstuction they hava been fighting Geoigiu’s Battles in the democratic party. Where was Atlan ta’s candidate all those years? Will some kind Evans manj please name those hundred counties that the general is going to carry before it is too late? —Griffin News. The people are naming them but in some instances “those who con trol” are defeating the will of the people* Macon News. You bet your life! Think of S6OO of AHanfa “Boodle” in Telfair and sl,- 250 of the same kind and the Atlanta liquor that was and was not captur ed in Hall county. Gen, Evans should be nominated because, when thetosiu of war sound ed, he left the comforts of home; bared his bosom to the bullets of the enemy, and suffered wounds and pri vations for his peoples’ sake,-Max Meyerhardt. And yet this same Max Meyerharct lias said, over hi s signature, tha General Evans was not running on his war record. A war record is good, but a war record with a since the war record as a democrat, is a nec essarv qualification to the standard in Georgia Gen. Evans should be nomi nated because he is a statesman in the true sense of the word, with a fhorough knowledge of the wants and necessities of the people.— Max Meyerlqirdt. General Evans was a “Know' Nothing’ before the war and sam ples at his efforts at Statesman ship are recorded in a paralel col umn on this page. Max Meyer hardts statement to the contrary. Gen Evans should be nomina ed because he has always been the friend es the people, working for their interests, looking to their welfair, and seeking always to aid them.—Max Meyerhardt. There are ten thousand minis ters in Georgia who have served their flocks as faithfully and ac complished as much good for 'hem. What does Max say to drawing a deed for one of these good men and leaving unerased the part of the printed form : “In the year of our Lord. ’ The Tribune may not know it, but when it published that “Mr. Atkinson is here,” and in the same paragraph said: “It is learn ed that he will speak hear on Fri day night,” it published a false hood. Had the political saint, who edits the Tribune, been seeking af ter the truth he could have easily verified such a report, Mr. Atkin son was at the Armstrong and his friends were all over the city. Who did the Tribune “learn” its infor mation from? General Evans should be nomi nated because he is not a politi cian, and has not formed a “slate” composed of office holders and of fice-seeaers. —Max Meyerhardt. Ye gods and little fishes ! Taking a peep at Floyd county —at the of fice holders and office seekers who formed the Executive Committee of the Max Meyerhardt Evans Club of Rome and then say that Genera! Evans is not a “politician” and has not formed a “slate.” Max has struck “slate.” i THE HUSTLER OF ROME. THURSDAY MAY 24. 1894 The Tribune charges that an effort will be made by Mr. Atkin sons friends to vote Republicans and third partyites in the mass meeting. We challenge the “Jo nah” to the proof and knowing that they can not substantiate that which does not exist we pro nounce it a genuine “foul slander.” At the same t ime should the < e no crate of Floyd report to such a re source, they would only imitate the Evans people of Hall and Tel fair; For the proof of the charge letters in The Hustler of Rome office. Gen,Evans should be nominated because he has served his people faithfully,in peace and in war. and has never asked any rewa'd for bis services.—Max Meyerhardt. He was rewarded with a general ship in the war,and since the war he has,like p'l other good preachers, had good pay for his services.As the church i ewards her servants and adds honor unto honor as they are merited and won,so will thestate,em _ ulating the holier institution, honor her servants who meiit her favors and promote such tried and true statesmen as W.Y. Atkinson,to the Governor’.* chair, ATLANTAS MODESTY. Atlanta not only has an eie on capturing and incorporating the earth but is hungrily reaching out after all of the offices. She has two candidates m the field for Governor and lasr nights edition of the Jour nal contains the following. “The announcement that Hon W, H. Venable would, be elected to the senate from this district, be a candi date for the presidenency of the sen ate, is meeting with favor throughout the state. Mr. Venable is in receq t of a number of letters promising sup port, and several of the state papers have endorsed bis candidcy.’’ Further down the same column we get this on‘ The frieuds of Judge Richard Clark will present his name to Gov ernor Northern for appointment as secretary of state. Jndge Clarke needs no introduce tion to the people of Georgia. He has a wider personal acquaintance than any man in the state, and is qualiliod to fill any office in the gift of the people. In the meantime the Atlanta poli tician continues to raise corruption money with which to manipulate the out of Atlanta counties” in the interest of the Rev. C A Evans. TH£ TWO RECORDS. WHAT EACH CANDIDATE DID WHIL IN THE LEGISLATURE. Hon W. Y. Atkinson was a mem her of the legislatuje from Coweta county from 1886 to 1894. Hon. C.A. Evans was State senator from Stewart eounty in 1859 60. He re are the records the twomen made, by which we impartially judge their character as statesmen.

H« had an amendment inserted iu ti e naval appropriation bill allowing a cadet from every congressional district not represented in the acadamy at peresnt. It did not pro vide for turning those out who were illegally appointed, but pro vides that in the future when a congressman fails to make an ap pointment that the secretary of the navy shall fill his vacancy from his congressional district. Judge Maddox made a splendid fight and won a victory which many mem bers of the house have been fight ing for years . —Marietta Journal. MR. ATKINSON WILL NOT STEAK. For the benefit of the Tribui e, we will say that while Mr, Atkin son was at the Armstrong yestei day afternoon we heard a gentle man ask him if he would speak in Rome again before the primary, and we heard Mr. Atkinson an swer “No. ” Then he said : ‘No, this is one of the joint debate counties and I hardly think it would be fair for me to do so, eyen if I thought it necessary. ’ Continuing be said: “My friends in Cave Spring wanted me to speak there and I would like to have done so but Cave Sprang being in this county I felt bound to decline.” Mr. Atkinson infighting this cam paign like a democrat, and Flovd county will rally under his stand ard with a big majority. “Mark that prediction .” And watch the polls, A CAMPAIGN LIE w . M . Bridges County School Commisioner of Floyd County, who has gall enough to aspire to the po sition of the State School Commis sioner. has issued a circuler to the teachers of Floyd county instracting tmm to vote for Atkinson. houn Times. The Hustleb of Rome Challenges the above as an infamous lie,and de fies any paper or any person to pro duce a letter from any school teach er in Floyd county,or any other coun .ty, writen by Floyd County s able school Commissioner, containing any such instuctions. The Calhoun Times is most respect fully requested to publish the highest evidence in this case,and that is one of said etter’s of instructions. When it do es, then it will clean its own skirts of the charge of slandering one of Fl®j d’s best officials, untill it does, why every one who knows W M.Bridges knows the charge to be false in every feature. Bi’ 1 Bridge has as many Confederate wounds in his body as General Evans and has a right to support Mr Atkinson with out being slannered by an Evans Press. Let every democrat in Floyd keep an eye open for the Atlanta boodlers. The wool hat boys of Floyd are not ready to sell the “Banner County” to the Atlanta Ring. The people want primaries be cause pnmries are democratic. The Constitution wants the people to have primaries because in pri maries the people can’t pass reso lutions condeming the Constitu tion . Should Evans be nominated the Atkinson men will not “make it convenient to go fishing on election day to keep from voting for him.’ Atkinson men are Democrats and only democrats will be permitted to vote in Saturdays primary. “My friends in Atlanta and Au gusta will help you in any way they can,” wrote General Evans to Mr. Golucke, of Taliaferro. And yet they say Gem Evans does not know of the dirty work being done in this campaign. We have found out in Hill what “any way they can” means.— Georgia Cracker. The Constitution is complaining that the Evans people do not turn out and go to the polls J Has that “spontaneous uprising of the masses' busted? Or are the Evansites wait ing for the Atlanta boodle to hire Substitutes for them, so that they, can vote for the General without loss to themselves? The Augusta Herald says; “Gen. Evans’ ehancea are better by being thrown in the rear. He and his friends will now realize‘he necessity of getting down to hard work*', Queer talk for a “spontaneous up rising.”—Macon Telegraph, Look out for lying dodgers sent out by Evans Boomers from bis headquarters in Atlanta. These dodgers are a feature of the Evans campaign and the hour for theii arrival and destribution is after ♦he polls open and it is too late to be met by Mr. Atkinson’s friends At least this has been the habit of the animal, to date .
