der puts it,
More than 200 Inauguration visitors
will 60 from Atlanta alone.
The Original Wilson Man, Too.
In the army Georgia is preparing for
immediate intervention in Washington
political and social affairs will be found
the original Crackerland original Will
son man"-23,574 strong. He wants to
know where he is to hang his official
hat for the next four years and he Is
going to Washington to find out right

tons before. The last one saw Georgia
vouched for by lily white and black and
tan patriots, of limited political 1nf1u-
snce back home but Of hearty and ap-
prectative Republican appetite for pie,
nevertheless.
The 1913 Inauguration, however, is to
be real Democratic family affair, and
the faithful do not propose to overlook
one little bet-not one. If the Georgia
Democracy doesn't see what 1t wants In
Washington it will not stand back
minute upon asking for 1t.
Everybody will be happy going up"

rom the Judge to bubble or squabble
The Judges Fidus Achates (not),
hdltor Slope. of The Dalton Citizen, is
gong along to see that the Judge gets
Sone sort of job Shope prefers that
Ne De made consul to Shanghai, as

circuit than any other place he can
