The Evans 1 eople Read The
Hand Writing on The Wali
AND RECOGNIZE THE CHOSEN
Leader oi Georgia Democracy to be
Hon. W. Y, Atkinson otthe County
Os Coweta. Editor Blackburn’s Manly
Utterances. The Rome Tribune
‘•Quits - ”
Yesterday's “land slide - ’ of pure
Democratic “spoutaiu" has about
swept away all the remaiutug
hopes of the Evans boomors.
And today the Evans people of
Rome are almost unanimous iu the
opinion that W. Y. Atkinson, that
gallant young Democrat and brainy
statesman, will be Georgia’s next
governor.
In all the heat of the campaign,
Mr. Atkinson has used no lan
guage that will drive the follow
ers of Gen. Evans from the Demo
cratic party—while his methods ol
campaigning have been on an ele
vatedplane and have proven him to
be a leader that ad true Democrats
will delight to follow.
That he will be the nominee of hie
party is already, almost beyond per
adventure. This concession on the
part of the Evans conservative follow
ing is strongly evidenced in the fol
lowing able editorial from the Atlan
ta Daily Commercial:
G1 0 VTNG MCE 2 BEBIOUB-
The contest for tbe gubernatorial
nomination continues io grow in in
terest, and the friends of both candi
dates are working with increased
zeal for their favorite. There is no
question that this week will give a
most serious aspect to the race, there
being nineteen counties to select del
egates.
Mr. Atkinson led off yesterday
with a dash that speaks well for
his chances. Montgomery and
Tatnall acted yesterday, and both
of these fell id the Atkinson col*
um, giving the Coweta Statesman
•20 majority.
Six counties will choose dele
gates today . Os Madison,
Paulding, Heard and Appling,
eight votes, will go for Atkinson
while Dawson and Hart four votes
will go for Evans.
This will give Atkiuson a total
majority of 24 votes. The eleven
counties to act during the remain
der of the week will doubtless in
crease this majority to 30 in which
event Atkinsons nomination will
oe afoiegone concision.
Two weeks ago The Commercial
predictd the success of Mr Atkin
son, and reference to our estimates
during this period will show that
in no instance have we made a ma
terial errow in forecasting the proba
bilities.
Ten days ago we took the position
that it would be almost impossible
tor General Evans to regain the loss
that he had sustained. That opinion
was expressed without bias. To day
we are more convinced than ever
that he is making a useless
race, and in this estimate the ques
toin of personal preference cuts no
figure whatever. It is simply the
honest forecast of a dispassioned ob.
server.
Mr. Atkinson will surely be the
next governor of Georgia.
Col. Charley Bass returned to the
city today after spending a day or
two on his ranch down the river.
Col. Bars reports his wheat crop in
fine condition, as is most of his other
crops except -pumpkins.
Miss Florence Hoyt, one of
Rome’s sweetest and most popular
daughters, arrived home last night
t>om Bryn Maur, where she has
been taking a post graduates
course.
