GENUINE RATTAN ROCKER
NG JUNE 11. 1894,
THEN IM
What the Atlanta Constitu
tion Said in 1892.
ABOUT HON. WY ATKINSON
A High Couiplimt ut, and an the Con
stitution was not running Gen. Evans
Then. It Must Have Been Telling
the Truth on the Coweta man.
From the Atlanta Conation,
September 14, 4892.
We observe a great many al
lusions in our Republican contem
poraries to the politcal situation
in the South. Editor Halstead,
looking over the field from hia
Brooklyn perch, professes to see a
great many opportunities for the
Republican party in this direction,
and he blazons it forth with his
mighty pen, after the manner of
the writer of circus posters.
These delusions are helped for
ward tofsomeVxtent bjlthe remarks
of some ill informed correspon
dent in this section, who pretend
to have discovered certain ele
ments of distruction at work in
‘.he Democratic organization here
—a notable coutribnticn being in
the shape of recent letters from
Georgia to leading Northen papers
in which the remarkable statement
is made that the situation in Geor
gia is very critical,
The stat, m nt is not without
importance, for it enabled us,
without going into detail, to pay a
passing tribute to the unsurpassed
organization which has grown up
in this State during the past few
weeks under the hands of Hon. W
Y. Atkinson, chairman of the
Democratic State Executive Com
mittee. When Chairman Atkinson
t )ok bold of affairs for the pur
pose of beginning an active cam
paign, he found the party in a
state of chaos, with the third par
ty leaders hammering away at it
in every county. Organization wa»
lacking, and had been lacking for
yeais; in fact it was never neces
sary after the white people came
together and r> eumed control of
their State affairs. The solidity of
the voters and the resulting ma
jority was superior to organiza
tion.
No campaign was necessary,
and such as was undertaken was
formal and perfunctory, merely
serving to give aspiring young ora
<ors an opportunity to perfect
themselves in elocution. In the
utter absence of all opposition
there was no need tor organization
or for serious campaigue work.
The Democratic candidates had a
walk-over and the party moved by
tne weight of its majority.
This was the state of affairs un
til the third party leaders began
their campaign. Their efforts creat
ed considerable confusion in some
quarters, and the party machinery,
rusty from disuse, was not equal
to the emergency. In this condi
t or, Chairman Atkinson found
the partj, when he undertook the
managemnet of the present cam
paign. He found doubt hare, de
spair there and confusion and un
certainty everywhere. He had a
serious task before him, but he
has been more than equal to the
emergency.
The result of his efforts is that ihe
party iu the state is better organized
cban has been since the war. It is an
organization that covers every con -
every senatorial and eve
ry militia district. It covers every
section of the state, and every coun
ty. Everywhere in Georgia the party
is organized and confident of victory.
It is true that Chairman Atkinson
has had the assistance of able lieuten
ants, and has had. au eager and an
enthusiastic body of unterritied Dem
ocrats behind him.but it has not by
anv manner’ of means been a i easy
GUARANTEED LARGEST SIZE MADE
matter to bring order out of chaos
and introduce discipline where there
had been none before.
‘This, Chairman Atkinson has
accomplished. His tactics havo
strengthened the party where it
was weak infused confidence where
there was doubt before.
‘Thus it is, that in spits of the
fact that the third pt rtv h"8 some
following h»»rp, the Democratic
party is stronger aud mure efficient
than it has been at any time since
the war. and this fact will be fully
demonstrated at the polls. The
party is in fighting trim. Its ac
tive forces are in the field. The
campaign is proceeding on an or
derly aud a well-defined plan.
There is no jar in the machinery.
The enthusiasm manifested is un
feigned. AND ALL THIS IS DUE
IO THE MASTERLY MANAGE
MENT OFCHAIRMAN ATKIN
SON.
FOUGHT ABOUT PROPERTY.
A FIGHT OVER A HALF ACRE OF
GROUND. TWO MEN KILLED.
Dublin June, 10.—Au old wo
man who owned an acre of Grat
nenagb, county of Tipperary, died
Friday without leaving a relative
or specifying an heir.
Her neighbors quarreled over
the possession of her land yester
day. Some thirty men fought wiih
scythes and pitchforks round her
house. Eventually they broke
down the doors aud beat each oth
er with the candles which bad
stood around the body.
When the fight was ended two
men lay dead at the doorstep aud
Eve others were too severely
wounded to walk from the scene
of the conflict. A farmer named
Dwyer, living near JNeuagh, was
killed in another agrarian on Fri
day .

WHEAT AND FELL.
Chattanooga. Tenn.. June 10.- The
large grain warehouse of J. T.Thom

of ground, gave way last night and
the building of corrugated iron is a

bushels of grain were stored in the
building. The side of the house ad
joining the railway jards had been
unequally packed with and the
great weight threw the structure off

loaded with pig iron, they were lif

The Democracy of Georgia aas
spoken- that is the majority sf the
counties have spoken, and abig ma
jority of said majority have said
most emphatically tnat Mr. Atkinaan
is their choice for Governor.
The Evanswing admit that Mr At

would have done had General Evua
been chosen as the nominee.
That Mr. Atkinson will be nom
inated, but tew democrats iu Geor

record we refer our readers to an
art’cie in another column es this
paper; an article which the Allan
la Constitution published, edit®
rially in 1892. Read that aud no
tice that todays Constitution con
tains no slur —has in fact “let up”
on “the people s choice,’’ and it
takes no deep thinker or profound

abandoned hope ol nominating
