THE HUSTLER OF ROME. FRIDAY. JUNE 8.1894.
A BELATED SLANDER.
The Augusta Chronicle writes a
lengthy editoial on Democratic
harmony, in which it bemoans
the mistake and injustice of one
candidate referring to his oppon
ent as a “superanuated idiot.’’
The C h Oaicle can never s icceed
in restoring harmony, so long as
it continues to deliberatly charge
Mr. Atkinson with a slander
which has been exploded so long
that the public had forgotten that
it was ever a feature in the cam
paign.
For the information of our be.
lated contemporary we desire to
say, that honorable men of both
factions have long since published
affidavits to the effect that no such
language was ever used by Mr. At
kinson in his Gainesville speech.
Why does the Chronicle contin
ue to charge this slander on a fel
low Democrat?—Atlanta Commer
cial.

OPINION OF THT POPUL’TS.
The Thom a on Sun oi e o' the mo t
rabid Third Party papers in the state
prints the following:
“Mr k Atkinson and the Constitution
are engaged in calling each othei
names and the Constitution proceeds
to prove that Mr. Atkinson is not fit
co be governor. In this we agree
with the Constitution.’’
This opinion of the Populists is a
badge of honor for Mr. Atkinson .
The Populists remember their de
feat of two years ago, and have no
love whatever for Atkinson.
It will be observed that the Sun’
through favoring the election of Judge
Hines, has nothing to say about the
candidates of its friend, the Consti
ution.

Two years ago Prior's district cast

test was ot , Last Saturday 50 votes
were cast in the primary, when the

good Democratic friends there to
vote at least 100 for the party can

Cedartown St-ndard.
AND STILL ANOTHER.
The News rjeeived a dispatch
f o n Dallas, Paulding county, yester
day afternoon, stating that at the big
mass meeling held there yesterday,
Paulding elected Atkinson dele
gates, and at the same time endors
ed Hon. John W. Maddox for con
gress.
What makes this endorsement of
special significance is the fact that
Col, Everett, Lis opponement, was
booked for a speech that day and
that Judge Al addox should have
been endorsed under these circum
stances is especially gratifying to
his friends here. We happen to
know that Col. Everett confidently
claimed Paulding county as his, but
it seems that he is a littile off in his
figures, just like he will be when be
strikes Cobb and Bartow.—Chat
tooga News.
WHO WILL RE JUDGE?
An interesting bit of political
gossip comes from Floyd county.
It is to the effect that Judge Wal
ter T. Turnbull, judge of the city
court of that county, is being
urged by his friends in Floyd
county and throughout that judi
cal district to become a candidate
for the judgeship of the superior
court, a position now held by-
Judge Matt Henry, of Chattooga
county Judge Turnbull is one ol
the ablest young men in Georgia,
and should his candidacy be an
asoured tact he will find very
strong support from all parts of
; he sta'e. He is well known here
in Atlanta, where he practiced taw
before his removal to Rome, and
ne is sure to have warm support
from friends here.—Constitution.
THE TWO RECORDS.
WHAT EACH CANDIDAT DID WHIL
IN THE LEGISLATURE.
Hon W. Y. Atkinson was a mem
ber of the legislature 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.

LETTER FROM CONGRESS
MAN MADDOX.
Washington D. C. June, 6th, —
Col J. G. Yeiser, Geo, O'Rear, I. N
Perkins, and et. al. Gentleman:—
I have just received your letter of
4th. inst. in which you ask me
whether Congress proposes to raise
Indian pensions so as to equalize
them with the pensioners of 1861
and 1865.
Allow me to say r that a bill has
been introduced into Congress
by Mr. Moses of Ga., which places
veterans like yoursilf, on an
equality with the Soldiers of the
Civil war. The bill has been fa
vorably reported by the committee
on pensioners and Speaker Crisp
says it shall bi called up and con
sidered. Allow me to assure you
that it will secure my hearty sup
port. It is just and ought to pass.
Yours, ♦
John W. Maddox.
GOT HIS 37 COUNTIES.
Mr. Atkinson yesterday carried
hie thirty-seventh county—the total
number allotted him by Gen. Evans
at the beginning of the campaign.
As the result in Polk must remain
undecided uLti. t e convention meet
aid Mclntosh failed to instruct its
delegates, it is now possible for Ger.
Evans to get only ninety eight of the
one hundred counties he alloted to
himself.
He has now only twenty-one, and
will hardly be able to secure all of
the seventy-seven which are yet to
act. In fact it is much more probable
if the contest is kept up, that Mr. A
tkinson and not Gen. Evans will get
the one hundred counties of which
there has been so much talk.—Ma
con Tdegranh.
Persons who sympathize with the
afficted will rejoice with D. . E Carr
