MIOK Wf. 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. IT POPS.
