Reoublicans “fuse"
and Others
The Atlanta Constitution’a Wash
ington correapomikut includes the
foliowin ' in his si e ia) from the cap
ital this morning:
The Georgia delegation is pre.
paring to go home, Speaker Crisp
says congress will not adjourn be
fore next Tuesday.
Judgi Moddcx went to the treae
ury this morning and gave a twen
ty dollar gold piece for twenty
new silver dollars coined last
month.
They were done up in a small
wooden box shaped like a dyna
mite brick. The judge expects them
to have the eflfe *t of dynamite
among the populists in his district.
The latter, he says, are still
claiming that mo silver is being
coined and the silver dollars which
he will carry home as object les
sons.”
IS IT HIS SON.
Whos dust Moulds in the Unkouwn
Gvave at Seney-
Mr. N. G. Trout, a tall, good
looking citizen, of Pendergrast,
Jackson county, was in the city
this forenoon in consultation with
coroner Drennon and Ordinary
John P. Davis.
As a result of his interview with
the county officers this morning.
Mr. Trout went down to Seney
about 11 o’clock armed with the
neccessary papers and will have
the grave of the young man who was
so foully murdered there some
weeks ago, opened, and see if he
can possibly identify the mauldei
ing remains as those of his eon.
Mr. Trout said to the Hustler of
Rome this morning that he doubt
ed the remedus being those of his
bov although the description fitted
the missing young man very close
*y-
But said heiand his voice was sad
and a wistful expression came into
his eye U I cant sleep of nights for
thinking about it and my wife,
.he good mother of the lad. has
set her heart-on m« making this
investigation and lam going to
Seney for that purpose.”
Perhaps at last the mystery that
hovers over the identity of the un
fortunate young man may yet
be dipelled.

CHINESE DO NOT ANTE UP

Rice not rontraband.
London, August 24.—The Cen

government has declared rice to be
not included among the articles
contraband of war.
The attempt of the Chinese gov
ernment to float a loan of 1,C00,000
taels, to be guaranteed by Chinese
merchants, has proved a flat fai -

The American consul at Shang

Mr. Oteri, the Japanese minister

ROME GEORGIA. FRIDAY EVENING AUGUST. 24 1894.
THEJIOPPER”
Opinion of the Courant American'
and Mariella Journal.
PASSED ON DR. FELTON.
“My, my! Zack Hargrove for
Legislature in Floyd and
Felton for Congress in
the Seventh" - Pu
rify and Reform.
From the Democratic county of
Cobb and the columns of that strict
ly conservative and most readable
newspaper the Mariefta Journal, we
clip the following comment on the
‘spawn of the Populist recent pro
tracted caucus.”
DR. FELTON.
The Peoples Party consgression
al convention met at Rome last
w-eek. They held two caucusses as
to whether they must nominate a
congressman or make no nomina
tion and allow Seal) Wright to run
independent.
Seab refused the nomination, so
it is said, and then they decided to
nominate Dr. Felton, and they did.
The third party has been crying
•out that they wanted to purify pol
itics and they have nominated the
most unsavory old politician in the
State as their choice. My, my!
Zack Hargroves for Legislature in
Floyd and Felton for Congress in
the seventh. What straits the Pop
ulists are put to, to get candidates.
Are there no good men in their par
ty that they are forced to take
such a political demagogue as Fel
ton, a man without a party or fix
■el principles, all things toall men,
nothing long, and anything for of
fice? They ought to be beat and
will. Judge Maddox will distance
Felton so far that there won’t be
no race at all. Some of the Popu
lists in this county say they won’t
vote for Felton—that they would
prefer to vote for Maddox, who has
shown himself to be a friend of the
people in all his votes and speech
es. ,
In the columns of the Courant
’ American, published in the emi
nent Floppers own county we find
this readable article:
P IPULIST CONCESSIONAL NOMINEE,
The populist congressional con
tention of the seventh district
whiehjmet iußomelast week nom
inated as jits standard bearer, Dr.
W. H Felton, of this country. In
our opinion a man could not have
been named whom it will be easier
for the democrats to defeat. Dr.
Felton was at one time a tower of
strength and seemed almost invin
cible before the people, but that
day is past.
He poses today, ostensibly as
the representative of heteroge
neous ideas and principles, but in
truth,nothing.
He has occupied before the peo
ple first and last so many different
positions until it seems hard to
accredit with sincerity any of his
utterances cr pretentions.
Dr. Felton claims to be in full
sympathy with all the so called
principles of the popnlist party.
It will be hard for him to make
the people believe so, in view of
his past record. Four years ago
he could say nothing too hard, it
seems against the very same crowd
he now represents as a champion
and leader. No ;one can discredit
Dr. Felton’s ability. His intellect
and store of knowledge are such as
to win admiration. He is one of
the ablest stump speakers Georgia
ever knew. Before an audience he
can still interest but can hardly
conivnce.Whatever he may say can
hardly favorably effect his cause.
His power before the people has
gradually waned until he is now
but a feedle representation of his
former self. He has been too er
ratic and inconsistent and the peo
ple know him.

Week’s Vote.
The talk of the town is the Hus

And while everybody is wonder

man or saleslady is there are
many people who are lifting up
their voicies through the contest
ballot box and giving their opin.
ion in away that will tell.
As announced before, the con test
will close on Saturday afternoon,
September Ist, at 6 o’clock and the
salesman or saleslady who has re
ceived the greatest number of ballots
will be declared the winner and will
be entitled to a free round trip over
the Great Southern Railway to St.
Simons Island and a weeks board at
that matchless seaside home, the Ho
tel St. Simon,
On Sunday morning next, the
standing of contestants will be an
nounced, and for the last time pri.
or to the final announcement which
will be made in these columns on
Sunday morning, Sept. 2nd.
After the votes are counted to
morrow night, they will be put in
to sealed boxes, each box contain
ing the name of a contestant, and
then as ballots come in, they will
beposited in their respective
boxes throughout the week by t h >
Contest editor and by him alone.
This will be perfectly fair for
all parties concerned and—the
most popular contestant will win.

Phill G. Byrd, Cap‘t.
Howard Jack, Sec’y,
JEALOUSLY. I
Lead to a Double Tradegy in Sa *
vanah.
BOTH ARE MULATTOES.
And Both Will die From Jthe
Effects of the Pistol Shots.
A Syrian JPedd'er As
suited by a Negro
Banditt.
Savanah, Ga„ August 23.—A most
peculiar cas° of love and jealousy in
colored high life terminated today
about 1 o’clock in a tragedy which
has been talked of almost as much as
if the parties had been white,
Robert Howard, a bright mulatto
went to the house of a Mr. Mashburn
where Grace Rhodes was employed
as cook, and opening the back gate
culled to her. As she came up she saw
a pistol in nis hand, so she turned
and ran.
Howard fired, two shots, neither of
which took effect . Then he followed
her to the steps as she ran, firing five
shots, one of which struck her in the
back and passed through her lungs.
She rau into the house, where she
drooped to the floor,
In the meantime Howard ran in
to the kitchen, where he shot him
self in the shoulder. There being
but one cartridge ip the pistol, he
went into the yard, loaded it and
fired two shots into his breast just
. above the heart.
Both were removed to the Geor
gia infirmary, and the physicians
■ say that neither will live.
> Howard left his wife about four
years ago and since then has been
. paying attention to other women.
, This woman repulsed him and re
fused to marry him unless he was
. divorced from hi > present wife. He
denies this story and says she had
been living with him, but left him
for another man.
He said that his only regret was
that he did not strike the heart, so
that he could die at once. His rea
son for shoooting himself was that
he did not want to go to jail rbe
punished here on earth, as he knew
he would be if he lived.
He said he did not know what
his punishment in the next world
would be,but he might as well face
it one time as another, so he tried
to kill himself. He cannot live
until morning, and there is believ
ed to be no cha.ice for the woman.
ANOTHER SY' UAN ASSAULTED.
A Syrian peddler, named Seab
George, was nearly killed about two
miles west of the city this after
noon, by a negro, who attacked
him from the rear with a knife as
he was walking along the Central
railroad track. *
George received five deep cuts in
in the back of the head and the
neck. These peddlers are favorite
objects of attack with the negro
desperadoes. The Syrians carry
valuable packs and seldom go
armed. George is the second one s
attacked recently.
THREE LADIES DROWNED,
Thev Were Bathing in a River and
Got Beyond Their Depth.
Baton Rou f e, La. August 24.
News reached the city this morning
of a distressing accident near Baton
Rouge, which resulted in the death of
three estimable young ladies, and
which has cast a gloom over the en
tire capital.
The unfortunates were Misses
Mar ,Lee Read, Belle Chambers
and Elenore Garland. The young
ladies were bathing in the Amite
river, when one of their number
got beyond her depth. She scream
ed and tho other two went to hei
assistance, and all of them were
drowned.
