GENUINE RATTAN ROCKER
Goes to W.Y. Atkinson, the
Gal’ant Young Statesman.
REPUBLICAN NON-RESIDENTS
Were Voted Against him, Th»ir Votes
Were Challenged arid Retered to the
Executive Committee of Fannin’ and
Were Very Properly Thrown out.
Morganton, May 31, —Hou. W.
Y. Atkinson carried Fannin coun
ty by a majority of eight votes af
ter the most exciting contest
known here for years. Almost the
entire Democratic vote of the
county was polled. Blue Ridge is
five mileß from Morgautou aud is
m the strongest Democratic dis
trict in the county. lu that dis
trict Geu. Evans' friends hired
•very horse aud vehicle that could
be found aud got a complete mo
nopoly in the means of transpor
tation, They got complete control
of the hack line and no Atkinson
man could ride at any price and
every mau who voted for Atkiuson
from the towu of Blue Ridge had
to walk teu miles. A great deal of
money was spent by Gen. Evans’
friends. We do not know who
contributed it, but it is generally
understood that it came from At
lanta. The result is 'very gratify
ing to Col. Atkinson’s friends. The
Democratic executive ccdimittee
met today and declared the result
is follows-
‘‘Georgia Fannin County—The
Democratic executive committee
of Fannin county, having met this
day tor the purpose of counting
aud consolidating the votes cast in
mass meeting held on yesterday
for the election of governor aud
state house officers, declare the fol
lowing result to-wit:
‘‘There were 318 votes cast. Six
of said votes were illegal for th*
reason that the voters did not re«
side in Faanih county. One was
illegal for the reason that the
voter did not reside in the state o1
Georgia and sleveu of said votes
were illegal for the reason they
were not Democrats, but Republi
can s, and refuse to abide by the
result of the Democratic Domina
tion.
“Wo therefore declare the fol
lowing to be the result of the mas*
•meeting held in Fanniu county :
“W. Y. Atkinson has ree.eved
153 votes; Clement A. Evans has
recisved 145 votes. W, Y. Atkin
son having recieved a majority oi
eight votes iu the mass meeting is
entitled to the delegation from
this county and certificates ot
election are hereby issued to T.
M. Greenwood aud W. W, Findley
as delegates to the State Democrat
c Convention, and they are di
rected to cast the votes of Fannin
•ounty for W. Y, Atkinsou for
governor and toy the present state
bouse officers.

A Roman of Whom the State
< f Georgia is Proud.
NOT YE I' 30 YEARS OF AGE
He IS the Most Popular Mau In the
United States Consular Service
Donald Uaiper, of Paris. Writes
the Atlanta Constitution Abaut
Him.
The following from the pen of
hat gifted young Roman Donald
Harper, now of Paris is taken from
Sunday's Constitution, and will be
■mjoyed by the readers of Ths
Hustler of Rome, and the friends
• f Clyde Shropshire,
If the question were asked me
“who is the most popular Ameri
can in Paris?” my reply would be
Clyde Shropshire, the honorable
vice consul general of the United
States.
Living as he has been in Paris
for several years practicing
law, he acquired au extensive ac
quaintance and a large circle oi
riends before ho attainded hie
present position.
My office is only two doors from
the consulate, and I often have
occasion to visit there.
Mr Wiliams, of the United Stabs
treasury department, a most charm
mg gentleman, said to me the other
day “My duties call me all over Eu
rope,and I have a splendid opportun
ity to judge and I s;y that Clyde
Shropshire is one of the best, if not
he best, consular officials in the ser
vice of our government- He is eour
r.eous and clever and be knows lie
business.’’
Lately while in the consulate I ob
served an amusing scene. A womaf
richly dressed, came rushing in and
«aid she wished te speak with the
government officials. The vice consul
general smilingly said :“At your ser
vice, ruadame.” For thirty minute*
the vice consul general listened with
out interruption, ami then be fair 1
“Madame, r<< thin, your onlv
complaint ie that y< u have been
defrauded out of 5 franco?'’ “No,
sir.’’ she replied, “I don’t care a
farthing for 5 francos; it is the
principle in the affair—the idee
that a na’ural b <rn American citi
zen can be robbed bv these French
people. I want them to know our
iovernment will not permit it.”
“Madame, it is no governmental
affair, but a private matter.” She
told him that he didn’t know his
business and lota of o her things
and in anger departed.
I asked the vice coos’ll general
■vhac was the matter and he.
laughingly, said : “A washwoman
charged her 5 franca too much.”
So high among the virtues of a
consular officer there should be
placed an infinite abundance of
that divine characteristic of Job
and a vast supply of the celebrat
>d quality of Ch~sterfi“ld.
The v’ce consul general hue a very
beautiful apartment n a ' tho r■ de
Triomphe and be lives very elegant
ly. He frequently enter'ains mid bis
linners are among the best given in
Paris, and the best of it all is, that
ne always loves to have Ainericaue
with h ni. aud n»»n» in who ever pass
ed tbmugb Georgia can es ape
from Paris without an invitation.
Mr. Shropshire’s friends aie not
coutined to the American colony
alone, but among the French people
and among the English colony he
has many friend,s and if he accepted
all the invitations that came he
would never spend an evening at
home.
Major Robert M. Hooper, ex
consul general, who served his
government twt nty years in tha’
capacity, said to me that in addi
tion to the salaries the consulate
in Paris made in fees from SIB,OOO
■ • S2O 000 per annum Ido not
no‘w how lucrative the position
is to Mr. Shropshire, but I do
know that he lives line a prince;
that he has thousands of friends;
that be has established himself
most sp end dl and I am very
proud of biHu as a friend, as a
Georgian and as an official of our
great govern nent.
