Will the Peoples’ Choice apolo
gize for the brutes who assaulted
Mila Morehead.
■ —o
The chain-gang statesmen of
Georgia is the way the Inter-Ocean
alludes to the advocates of the
Glenn bill.
We have received the Globe of
Wichita, Kansas, and the Republi
can of Pine Bluff, Arkansas this
week. We welcome these papers
to our exchange list and wish them
a long and prosperous career.
From the Atlanta Defiance we
learn that a most dastardly and
cowardly outrage was committed on
the Rome Express a branch of the
Western and Atlantic R. R-, a few
days since. Mias Rosa Morehead
one of Atlanta’s most refined and
l ively daughters on her way from
that city to Marietta, was expelled
from the ladies car by brute force
by two white ruffians who dragged
her out and forced her into the ‘Jim
Crow’ or smoking car. The brave
lady appwaled for protection to the
conductor but got no satisfaction
from the cowardly cur. If colored
men don’t see that this thing is
stopped they are worse than dogs
and merit the contempt of mankind.
GORDON TO*THE RESCUE.
Gov. Gordon has ordered the
prosecution nf C. C, Bingham, tke
whipping boss at the convict camp
near Griffin for brutal and inhu
man treatment of convicts. He has
also ordered the lessees of peniten
tiary companies 2 and 3 to appear
at the Executive office September
1, to show cause why their contracts
should not be annulled. The same
order directs the Solicitor General
of the Atlanta circuit to institute
suit in the name of of the State to
recover damages from said compan
ies tor cruelties inflicted on the
convicts, and that the suit com
mence without unnecesbary delay.
THE CALL LED.
The Daily Even.ng Call of this
city t-mpended publication on last
Saturday after an existence of sev
eral months. The Call whs the
organ ot the Knights «f Labor and
was independent in politics. The
cause of suspension whs non sup
port, and the difficulty in making
collections. The paper deserved to
live and be well supported by
the people in whose interest it whs
run, but such was not the case and
it h d tn succumb to the inevitable.
People who want an organ to de
fend their rights must support it.
It takes money to run a paper—it
can’t be run on promises and sym
pathy.
WORSE.
One of the most miserable objects
to be immagired is the mm who
does not possess the courage to
speak his convictions when be or
his people may be assailed. But
when it comes that a man who is
kicked and otherwise assailed bows
and playa the sycophant, and be
comes the apologist for his assail
ant be should retire into dnkiußs
and obscurity and never permit the
*”• ’ : <rht to i-hine on such an abject
being.
i‘Ue Glenn Infamy bill which
proposes to pur teachers <»n the
chain gang who shall teach colon (I
and white children in the same i
“bool finds an apologist in the P< < -
pies Choice, an a'legetj Xegro J u . '
nal in M icon. Ev*iv ii>tellig< , r
colored man in Georgia, exc pt pos
sibly a few who , t re afratd of their j
places, has condemned this pro—
pc<,-ed legislation monstrous and
it has been denounced by colored
journals everywhere and by all lib
erty-loving papers in the country.
God knows toe outrages and crimes
committed in Georgia on colored
men and women within the past
three months have been enough
to arouse the most latent spirit to
action. Colored men and women are
brutally -faulted on Railroads be
cause of no other reason than their
color. And now it is proposed to
still further arouse the prejudices
of the ruffianly white men and in
cite them to worse deeds by legis
lating against any possibility of the
abatement of the hateful caste
prejudice.
Where is the colored man’s pride
that he can see these wrongs
heaped upon hie people and tame
ly submit? Freemen should resent
and fight to the bitter end any
legislation looking to an infringe
ment of their personal rights.
It is to be hoped that the Senate
will strangle the Glenn’s monstrosi
ty.
The Negro editor who defends
and apologizes for it has missed his
calling.
ARTESIAN SITY.
Albany, Ga., Aug. 17, 1887.
Railroad wreck*, deaths, and base
ball.
At about 10:30 o’clock Thursday
night just after the city bad become
quiet, and the weary just getting
off in their exhilarating repose
thfcre was a crash, for the night
through passenger train from At
lanta to Jacksonville was wrecked
just as it pulled off from the depot
in this city, on the river bridge of
the Brunswick and Western Rail
road. The scene that was present
ed was the most disastrous, that
the stoutest hearts with apprehen
sion of the most dire calamities to
to the unfortunate passengers.
Great was the scene of relief of un
utter able confusion as it was discov
ered that all the lights had been
extinguished by the concussion of
the railing train. The baggage
car was thrown from its tracks,
which was left standing on the
trestle, to the ground, 20 below, and
crushed like an egg. The baggage
master the ‘only one in the coach
escaped with only one gash on the
cheek. The conductor seeing the
imminent danger, leaped on the
opposite side and received internal
injuries- The second class coach
which had several passengers (col
ored) in it all of which received
some verv painful injuries, was
thrown from the track on its top
and crushed Baker Cooper train
hand received a very painful
wrench in his right shoulder. An
drews Webb, of Atlanta re eived
bruises on his right arm, and was
knocked senseless. Alex McDuffie.
Jamrs Dudley. James Thomas, ai d
Giles Houston, all from Ocnlocho
nee. received severe and very pain
ful injuries on the heads and body.
The first class coach with Thomas
' illiams as perter, who received
terrible injuries on the face and
body. Those among the whites thnt
were injured are C. W. McCrainer,
R. J’ Hammoiids, O. Rogers, Geo.
Smith, and Dr. W. L. Sikes- L- M
Peeples, escaped uninjured. Ti>e
sleeper was also thrown frim the
track. James Gibson hs conductor
and T. M. Beckam. porter, with five
passengers all of whom escaped
nnirjured except B. Emmett, of
Chicago who had retired for the
night and whs thrown violently
from his berth, sustaining painful
injuries. All the white passengers
wt r taken to hotels, and the colored
to Mrs. Molley Odoma' boarding
house where they Were well cared
for. The physicians of the city did
all that skill c<>uld do to give the
wounded all the relief that could be
rendered. The wrack was caused
by the rear truck of the sleeper by
some unexplicable cause jumped
the track about fifty yards from
where the 8 F and W. track inter
sects at right angle the B. and W.
track. As soon as the engineer was
aware of any ’rouble he brought his
engine to as andstill but not until
the sleeper had crossed the angle,
and on looking back he saw that it
was turning off the trestle. It then
pulled tne first class and second
coaches and baggage car below a
depth of twenty feet where the
bxtfgage car fell and ten feet where
the sleeper tumbled. The protec
ting hand of the Almighty was with
them for the casual observer cannot
see how some escaped wish tbeir
lives, though none was killed. Al-
len Ford who was mentioned in
yonr issue of the 29th July has
passed in silence to the tomb. On
Saturday morning at 5 o’clock the
messenger of death came hovering
around bis bedside and called him
from thia earthly tabernacle to a
world unknown. ’ He was a loving
husband, a devoted father, a faith
ful friend, and a true Christian, he
was a consistent member of the A.
M. E. church and has been for the
last twelve years. In bis death we
have lost a good citizen, and a true
Christian gentleman. It can be
said of as Pant said: “He fought a
good fight, he has kept the faith,
and is now gone to received the re
ward of the final faithful. On Sun
day the 14th at 10 o’clock a. m., he
was laid in bis last resting place.
He leaves a wife and four children
to mourn his loss. On Wednesday
evening 3:30 p. m. The match
game of base ball between Albany
and Brunswick was called and was
without doubt the best game of ball
played upon Albany’s grounds in
several seasons nothing but peace
and harmony prevailed throughout
the entire game. Too much praise
could not be said of the Royal Nine
of the city by the great deep, as
they acquitted themselves like gen
tlemen, a more quiet and peace! ul
set of gentlemen cannot be found.
Tlie Nine S tai sot the Artesian City
met them at the depot Tuesday
evening and escorted them to Mi>.
Molley Odoms where they bad sets
of rooms in waiting for them, they
then, after preparing themselves re
pai ed to the grounds for the game
but owing to the train being an
hour and a half behind time they
could not play for lateness of hour.
The game being called in time on
Wednesday evening was plajed
with all the skill that good players
could advise. Ou the first inning
they stood one and one the next
five innings being played without
either side making a run, on the
sixth inning. Albany made 3 runs
uid Brunswick 3, an the-seventh no
rounds was made, on the eigh h in
ning Albany 1 run, Brunswick
none, on the ninth Hopkins and
Key went to the bat and went out
dames Harmon then was called and
made a safe hit t»left field making
3rd base. Brooks then hit to right
making 2nd. and bringing in Har
mon; Hill hit safe to Ist. L <ury hit
to centre field, bringing in Hill, and
making 2nd‘ Jackson hit io left and
brought in Laury. Brunswick went
to the back and scored one run.
