Atkinson for pardon, one. Walter S. Beresford now doing time in the State convict camp at Kramer. Beresford is a “slick duck,” and I doubt seriously it Governor Atkinson will turn him out. But Beresford is so well ad vertised as a “smooth” youi g man, that its my opinion, that it anyone in Georgia is willing to be “gulled” by him now, I think Berystord ought to hate a chance. After all, I guess the young rasca l has suffered quite enough for the individual offence that put him in •tripes. * * * Hoke Smith said in his Rome •peech that Judge Maddox was one •f the most useful, energetic and hard working democrats in con gress. And especially did Mr. Smith praise “Our Jotin” for his effici ency on Indian affairs. Hoke is recognized as the leading gold bug of Georgia, too. But, heie at home, we find a few of our-gold bug friends just pasting it onto Judge Maddox, a: d this too when there is no gold-bug candidate be fore the people. I say, the lest time I heard from Mr.- Smith he was speaking most commendably of ‘Judge Maddox —but this was .a few months ago. In the mean time Mr. Smith may have heard from the Roman gold-bugs and bis olastic mind experienced a change. Wno knows! * * * The Pinkertons might be able to locate the head quarters of the mystic “Reformer’s”—but com mon every day democratic citizens are not smooth enough to ferrit it out. * * * “ Reform Club” is a correct name for them. They have rallied under many other oanners and suffered as many defeats, now they “re i form” their lines behind “mask ed” batteries and prepare to “do it again.” Content? Why bless your standing in the neighbor hood, these boys would not be happy any wherejelse except in the minority, rule or ruin camp. Its a habit fastened on them by custom. * * * I cant see why anybody wants to loap onto my friend, Fletcher Snitb, just because Mr. Smith wanted his money from a stranger for whom he had worked. When Mr. Smith found that Mr. Erhart had left the city he naturally took steps to recover the amount of his bill for job work . I don’t know I Mr. Erhart personally, and cer tainly have no ill will towards him. On the other hand I know Fletcher Smith very intimately and am frank to say that the more 1 see HOW TO TREAT A WIFE. k (From Pacific Health Journal.) First, get a wife; second, be pa ( tient. You may have great trials and perplexities in your business . but do not therefore, carry to your home a cloudy or contracted brow. Your wife may have trials, which though of less magnitude, may be hard for her to bear. A kind word a tender look, will do wonders in chasing her from her brow all clouds of gloom -To this-we would add always keep a bottle of Cham berlains cough remedy in the house It is the best and is sure to be needed sooner or later. Your wife will then know that you really care for her and wish to protect her health. For sa e by Lowry Bros. Rome Ga.

He is one of the most frank, most fearless men I have ever known and —he is the best job printer and book binder in North Georgia, if not in die State. Mr. Smith is a good business man, too, and I for one don’t blame him for looking after the $26 ac counts that are due him. He sent a mighty clever officer to Dalton after Mr. Erhart when he sent Deputy Sheriff' Klip Williamson. I understand that die mat'er is J satisfactorily arranged and I con gratulate all parties interested. THE TIM FOR BUILDING Up the system is at this season.
