The Pluck And Perseverance
oi a xdodest Little Woman
PLAYS A CONSPICUOUS PART
In the Naniinff of Geoigia's Next Ruler.
An Atlanta Paper’s High Compli
ment to Mrs. Governor Atkinson.
The following well deserved
tribute is paid the wife of Geor
gia’s next Gi veruer by Blackburn’s
Atlanta Daily Commercial:
‘ what one woman has done”
‘‘There is a brave, loyal little wo.
man down the West Point road, that
deserves the praise of every true man
in the state.
Ail through the present contest fo r
the Democratic nomination for gov
ernor, she has labored in her own
swrec, devoted way, for the success
or tue pride of her ambition an'l the
king of her devotion.
Through good and evil report, in
{he hour of lowering doubt and in
moments of exultant confidence
J
against what seemed to be over
whelming odds and in the season of
conquering determination, she has
been faithful, unerring, resolpte and
brave.
Now that her heart s best wish
has been gratified and her ambi
tion's most cherished hope has
inateri: .zed into splendid suc
cess, thousands of sturdy Demo
crats pay manly, chivalrous tribute
to the wife Hon. V, Y. Atkinson
whose untiring and brilliant work
for the idol of her heart k has btreu
rewarded by the most phenomenal
success ever achieved in a politic
al contest m Georgi .
While Mr. Atkinson Has astonished
his fiiends and dismayed his oppo
nents with the thoroughness of his
organization and the brilliancy of Lis
tactics, we hazard nothing in saying,
that to the soulful work of his indus
trious wife, wao has, from the retire
ment of home, answered the number
jess letters of his sympathizers, and
directed, in great measure, his cam
paign through the state, is due large
jy the magnificent ecope of Lis vic«
ory.
Having none of the aesertite
gese of the woman who clamors
for political HOognitlon, has, nev
ertheless, with a gentleness that is
characteristic of her sex, and a
skill that possessed by few trained
politicians, given a direction to
the contest that is supeibly be
wildering to many who assume
political leadership.
It is not often that the sweet
impress of a woman is seen in
gold fight for political advantage,
but Mr. Atkinson, being without
menus uecetsary to employ' the
machinery of a well organized
campaign committe, there was no
one to whom ho could look foi
such aid as the woman oi his heart
who had served him so loyally in
the battle of life.
In this he was peculiarly blessed
—for, without blunder, she has
discharged the duties that fall to
such committees, and demonstrat
ed to the world what one woman
can do when the test is put upon
her.
The democracy of Georgia will
bless the gently hand that has
been seen in tins contest by the
overwhelming election of the
brainy young statesman and de
voted Democrat who has fought
his way to power through an army
of fixed bayonets.

THE HUSTLER OF ROME MONDAY JUNE 25 1894
LIGHTNING FMAKS
It plays Havock in Many
Places
BURNED UP A HOUSE
Near the Brick Works. Rome Would
be a Good Field for Lightning rod
Agents, to ply Their Vocation.
Yesterday’s wind rian and light -
ning storm was one oi the worst that
has visited this section for a long
time, and the probability is that
g.eat damage has been done through
out the country. \
The rain came down in torrents
and the lightening flashes were
sharp and vivid, and the wind
blew at a terrific speed. The sec
tion of country through which the
storm passed has not been' fully
heard from yet, but it is feared
that great damage has been done,
especially to the growing crops.
LIGHTNING BURNS A HOUSE.
Out near the Rome Brick yard, a
negro cabin was struck by light
ning ; from which it cought fire
and was totally consumed, luckily
Ihe occupants of the house were
not at home and lo one was in
jured.
OTHER CASUALTIES.
*
Frank Miler’s house in the
Fifth Ward, was also struck by
lightning, but outside of a genera;
shaking up of the occupants, no
serious damage was done. It is
reported that Mr. Jim McCaffr?”,
who l ; ves in the same home was
knocked senseless by the shock .
A tree in the yard of Mr. Gue.
Buford of North Rome was also struck
by lightning and completely demol
ished.
A CLOUD BURST.
Mr.A .B. McArver who was out in
the cot n ry during the storm re. ot>
a cloud burst out in CLulio District.
Near Callier Springs the water
from the mountain sides came
down with such a rush that it
formed a river across the raod at
least eight feet deep, where yester
day morning there was nothing
but the dry earth. Mr. McArver
says that he had to wait for more
than au heur before it subsided
enough for him to ford the stream
with his buggy.
It is feared that hill side farms
have suffered severely, and bottom
lands may be in the same fix on
the account of the earths washing
down on it, covering up small cot
ton and corn.
