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.

M SIIIIHIIIE. ■ 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.
