The newspapers tell us that Edi tor B ackburn is very severe in his attackaon Governor Atkinson. Ed itor Blackburn is a'sosevere in his attacks on President Cleveland. Mr. Cleveland gave Mr. Blackburn the marble heart when he asked for » foreign mission. Mr. Black, burn’s brother asked Mr. Atkin son to appoint him solicitor of the city court of Atlanta and the gov ernor appointed some one else. Since that time there has been no criticism too severe for Mr. Black burn to make upon Governor At kinson. Previously the columns of llae Commercial lauded the govern or to the skies. Mr. Blackburn ♦boald be consistent, and, above all things just.—Americus Herald, Beab looks as if h* had a dark brown taste in Ins inmith. Dr. Gambrell seems to have gone into a hole and pulled the hole in after him. There’s one thing a man always likes about a young woman, and that’s —his arm. There will not be any money stringency in Maine for some time to come. —Americus Times-Record er The Jackson Argue refers to Mr. John Temp'e Graves as a “para bolic phrase monger and poly glot.” In Walton, Atkinson will re ceive a majority ranging not less than from 800 to 1,000. —Walton News. Mr. Wright’s consistency is la mentable. — Monroe Advertiser. Wrong. Mr. Wright has no con sistency. Pulaski county, Mo. . presents as a candidate for the leadership of the Popu ists a man whose bean! s fiVe feet long. The Baxley Banner says tha! Joi n Temple Graves wants tin next Populist noniii *.',ion for gov •rnor of Georgia. The Albany Herald remarks th; f “somehow Tom Watson doesn’t appear to have created anything ike a furoe i i the West.” The fifteen thousand Democrats who stayed away from the polls in Maine will be heard from in No vember —Macon Telegraph. “The uncomedcwnableness of Mr. Sewall is aggravating the wsnttogetthereness of Mr. Wat son". That’s the way the Bruns wick Advertiser puts it. Mr. Atkinson has been governor ot Georgia two years yet the Pops are unable to find a single flaw io. his administration upon which to attack him. Monroe Advertiser. S ah is reported as having in vestigated that 100 quart bottle business and as he is like the lit tle boy the calf run over he must have found the Hustler of Rome had the proof on him. There are seventeen prisoners confined in the Bibo county jail charged with cr ines punishable by death. Os these lift on are for mur der and two for rape. A numbei have had the death sentence pass ed upon them. Hon. John Temple Graves, the pretty little Georgia bug-wump, L now spoken of as the June gold bug and Septober May-pop. John Temple certain’y believes in the free and unlimited coinage of words wi bout parity or interna, tional agreement. The jewel casket of the dowager empress of Russia is the most fa mous in the world, from a gem point of view. Ilardly second to it is that of the empress of Austria, whose black pearls are noted throughout Europe for their ex treme beauty and rarity . Mr. Wright is a fusionist; Mr. Blackburu a confusionist; Mr. Graves a profusionist and Mr. Wat son a ■ deiusionist. —Monroe Ad vertiser. And the man who wrote the above is an allusionist of purest X rays serene. “Governor A'kinsou says he would be in lavor of prohibition if it cou d be enforced, but that i would be a dead letter in counties that do not want it. It is very ut - becoming in a public official to discredit the laws of his State, which he is sworn to administer." —Atlanta Motive. Ihe above is a fair specimen jf the argument advanced by the en emies of Governor Atkinson. We would like to know why prohibi tion. or anything else for that mat ter, should be put on a county that didn’t want it. THE HUSTLER OF ROME WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 23 1856. And Seah fai'ed to fill the office of Clerk of the Toard of Roa. h and Revenue of Floyd county, and it came to pass that three grand ju ries in the of our L>rd, one thousand eight hundred and nine ty one fell upon his administra tion and did so slaughter r. with the sword of criticism that even Seaborn resigned, and the place he could not know to fill will never know him now. And this is why Seab’s name is Dennis. * * * I am informed that Hon. Seab orn Wright, while in the city last Saturday interviewed the two wit- who furnished me data on the 100 empty whiskey botile trans action. Mr. Wright left on Mon day, and notwithstanding the fact that he has i ever been backward about “rushing into print,” why he has, todate, published no deni al of the transaction. * * * Another thing I want to cal ! the public attention to is the fact that it "as because of a message wired to friends in this city, requesting something of the kind, that Mr. Wright’s “certificate of charac er” as a “consistent” prohibitionist was drawn up and attested to by Romans. I don’t believe Mr. Wright will deny this statement any more than he has other charg es made in these columns. At the same time John Chamlee’s state ment about Seab tryiug to rent him a vacant store on Bioad St., and his plan to help Mr. Chamlee “straddle” through and run two “recruiting stations of hell” un der one license from the city also stands undenied. * i i * * And this, too, after Mr. Wright and Mr Chamlee have met and talked over other business matters The fact is, as I understand it, llfc.t Mr. Wright did not eve.' al ludy to the above mentioned arti cle. * * * lam informed that Mr. Wright proposes to speak in every district of Floyd county before the elec tion . A responsible man te Is me that he heard Mr. Wright make the above statement .ast Saturday. This being true, is conclusive evi‘ denes* of t.vo things : * * Fust, that Mr. Wright has aban doned all hope of carrying the S' ate ; and second,that Mr.Wrigh’. like his Floyd county followers, know.* that he has a ’.>ig figh’ on in thij county. Floyd county Democ racy can’t affoid to surrender tl e county io a man with such a polil -a record a« belongs to Hon. Mothers Anxiously watch declining health of their daughters. So many are cut oft by consumption in early years that there is real cause for anxiety. In the early stages, when not beyond the reach of medicine, Hood’s Sarsa parilla will restore the quality and quantity of the blood and thus give good health. Read the following letter: “It is but just to write about my daughter Cora, aged 19. She was com pletely run down, declining, had that tired feeling, and friends said she would not live over three months. She had a bad Cough and nothing seemed to do her any good. I happened to read about Hood’s Sarsapa rilla and had her give it a trial. From the Very first dose she began to get better. After taking a few bottles she was com pletely cured and her health has been the beet ever since.” Mrs. Addie Peck, 12 Railroad Place, Amsterdam, N. Y. “I will say that my mother has not stated my case in as strong words as I would have done. Hood’s Sarsaparilla has truly cured me and I am now well.” Cora Peck, Amsterdam, N. Y. Be sure to get Hood’s, because Hood’s Sarsaparilla Is the One True Blood Purifier. All druggists. |l. Prepared only by C. I.

B HUD Y HARVE Y & Company 0 We have recently almost doubled the oig stock of & Co and now taKe pleasure in announcing to the trade that we have thous andsand thousands of dollars worth of the greatest bargains in fur nitureever offered the Rome Public. Hemember, the banquet is spread and that th s cordial invitation is your wedding garment at the feast, An enormous stock replete with bargains in every line. Rhudy Harvev &Co Successors o RHUDY & CO, N. B. We beg to anounce that the new business of Harvey, Khua & Co, has also doubled the stock of Caskets, Coffins and undake rs supplies and will continue to make scientific - a specialty! -’eaborn Wiight. And Floyd coun ty Democracy, by an emphatic majority, is not going to do it. Mark that prediction. * * ♦ I happened in ac the court house this forenoon just at the right mo ment to witness the marriage of a young couple of this county, whose post office is Lake Creek. The hoppy woman was Miss Sn.ll le Doolv, until she became the fair bride of Mr. Seaborn Norton. * * * Deputy Sheriff J. K. William son, ever on the alert to lend as sistence, hunted up Dr. Bruce Har ris, who performed the ceremony in a most graceful manner. The bridesmaids were J. Dallas Turn" er and John I). Moore whi'e Wal ter Harper acted as flower girl. The bi ide was not kissed—while I was present —’hough I pleased her by calling her Mrs. Norton, first. The records at the court house show that Seaborn and W. A. Wright own a brick building uh Fifth avenue in which a barroom is in active operation. Perhap* the records lie, however, if they do it’s their funeral. So much—for the present—aa to Seab’e record for consistency, or inconsistency rather. Just a word us to business ability. The court records of Floyd show that when he was cterk f >r the board of com missioners of that county, hie work wps so loosely conducted and the records kept bo unintelligibly as to call for the criticism and condem nation of the grand jury. The cen sure was so severe that Seab re signed the place. A silvery tongue ■s a good thing for a closing speech before a petit grand jury, but it takes brains rathe/ than tongue to make a good commissioner’s clerk —or even a successful governor of Georgia! —Cedartown Standard.
