Mass Meeting.
ATLANTA, GA, Aug. Cit is reported
here that ex-Councilman Z. A. Angler
will stump Georgia for Harrison. In a
to /. Wilson, formerly of this city he
writes; please present my sincere con-
xratulations to Gen. Harrison, and say to
him for me that if necessary will stump
Georgia for him. If it is made clearly to CD
pear that TO rep'''l+. 'ize Georgia is one
thing and to Africanize it, is quite
another and different thing, and
which no one desires the condi-
tions will be favorable to the rapid growth
of republicanism In this state, and its ulti-
nato and not remote ascendency. You
will cheerfully bear evidence that Atlanta
is note bly, a. very progressive and liberal
city. Clevelauds British free trade mos,
sage with its stab Mt two of Georgias
greatest industries, lumber and marble,
Quickened and gave an impetus to this pro
greSsive spirit"

publican, and was state treasurer under
Gov. Bullock, ami Mr.. Angler has always
claimed to be a Sam Randall democrat
At present he is IN West Virginia, but there
is no doubt Of his intentions.
FULToN's LITTLE BREEZE.
The action of the county executive cont
clittee in ordering n mass meeting to nomi-
nate q candidate for senator continues to
be the talk of the town. IL is thought that
a considerable proportion of the democracy
will not abide by it.
l. s. Mitchell, vice chairman of the oxecu
tive committee, has called a mass meeting
ct the artesian well for tomorrow night,
when the people will be hoard from on the
new plan. The action of the committee has
gone q long way, it is claimed by some, in
splitting the party in Fulton county. The
indications are that the mass meeting will
be slimly attended. All the local papers
are strongly against the plan.
