Here’s an item from the edit - rial columns of that first-cla? weekly, the North Geornift Citi zen, in which Col Frank Reynold - voices my sentiments: “Something should be done t get telephone connection of Da ton with Rome and Springplace.' * * * Editors Freeman & Chapin n of that unterrified d mocratn sheet, the Courant American, put: it thusly: “The ern tic young man fron Rome who is running for govern i claims to be a better d>.mociu than Atkinson.” Seab did profess to be a demo crat along buck in 1888 and 189 U ami even to late as 181)2 he was calling on heaven to witness th* purity of his democracy. *. * Governor Atkinson aaj s that Hon. S. W. Wright was Seaborn politically, and has been at sea ev er since. The Governor certain!) knows the habits ol the fa’r and floppy, the leautiful and bombas tic young [man of Floyd. Tht trouble with Mr. Wright is that when his political craft was launch ed it had n® rudder and since then when it gets into water, where fieab’s pole can't reach bottom, the pesky thing is at the mercy oi the wind and waves —and Sea! just naturally can’t be satitied where he belongs —in the shallow coves and land-locked harbors. Poor Seab. but he cant heppit. * * * Anp Seali’s throat is sore. Ju«t Fait until, in a few days, it gets into his jints and Seab will wish he had nt ver thought of that •plank that be dictated to the over bossed crew that nominated him. * * * Guy Woodward is a whole ward -full of good i.atured guying—some as dry as chips and some as long as Bfoot green sweet-gum. Mr. Woodward always works with ths grain—and, as a whole, Wood ward is any king rather than a stick. * , * * Here is a well bread piece of good humor handed me yesterday: I “The ‘Lindale Limited,’ with Engineer J. T. Wi Kie at the throt tle, makes semi-weekly trips, leav ing here promptly at 5 a. m. , re turning at Bp. ni. Time eight hours, owing to its terrific rate of speed it has earned the justly de served sobriquet of ‘Cannon Ball.’ For the first time since it has been it operation it rolled in yesteaday twenty minutes late, caused by a hot box -th's is a great conven ience lo the public and we earn estly wish it much success.” For reul enterprise recommend me to my hast.ing friend Wilkie, the broad s'reet baker. The only thing that is crusty about him is the beau'iful dark brown that you taste on his kakes, kustards, pies and fleecy loaves The sensation of the day, across he E o'ah, in the beautiful little city of East Rome, is the Dunn Robbery, last night. Mr. Dunn, is proprietor of a paying grocery store in East Rome. His dwelling is next door to his store. Last evening when Mr. Dunn went to his supper he closed the front door and locked it. While at supper some sneak thi- f entered the rear store door, and rifled the money til! of a pocketbook coi taining SBS- * * * Mr. Dunn discovered his loss some time after he entered the store and gave the alarm. This morning the pocketbook was found torn up, in the railroad yards. * * * Marshal Cooper Lindsay, of East Rome, was sitting with oth . r parties, on the front veranda of of Mr. Dunn’s residence while the '■old thief was getting in his work in the store. * * * The dispatches tell us that Mc- Kinley has at last broken silence, iis long de’ayed long lett’r of I icceptauco having l»p#m turned Nose upon the big newspaper of-1 ices of th A man must ‘ >e partizan indeed to wade through hose long tedious columns of lense moonshine. Suffice it to say t »ht tl eC -i on mute, in q ite of | ns tn e-silver record now apt rov »s the single gold standard —and lie “protection’ part of the P. P. ?. simian is called off. ■ ' >■* '7rc* LSk ’I IS THE BEST YET. The WOODWA RD-WAR REN- Company deserves the largest pat ronage ever extended to a popular price company for the simple rea son that it is the best. “Colorado” was presented last night. It was well staged and ev ery part was a pronounced success. Tonight “Our Strategist” a a farce comedy will occupy the the boaid®. There is not on® seri ous line spoken in this perform ance. It is probably the first tim e | a popular price company has pr - s?n*ed it. Be sure to go and laugh with everybody —they’ll be there. Dalton Bous as Tourists Lee Arwood and N. C. Roa let Dalton on their bicycles yesterday at noon and arrived here at about 430 in the afternoon. Arwood is the boy who won our road race. They report the roads as be ing in a terrible condition.
