Railroad Discrimination
Against Athens.
Athens is again being made to suf
fer front that antagonism which the
Georgia Railroad has ever manifested
towards her, and this time, we a e
sorry to say, in combination with the
Atlanta & Charlotte Air-Line Rail
road. The Georgia Railroad, for
long years, and we might say, ever
since it was built, has discriminated
against Athens in the matter of
freights, charging our merchants
local rates for all shopmen's made
over that road, while being the ter
minus of the most valuable and best
paying portion of the road, it cer
tainly should be entitled to ns much
favor and as many privileges as At
lanta or Augusta. A year or two
ago, such complaint was made by our
people of this unfair and unjust
treatment, that thu authorities de-
; termined to give Athens the benefit
j of llirough freight rates. This lasted
payment, by Governor but a.short while, they, within the
tfTpon th
‘Colquilt of the commission allowed

of Georgia rerun* the United States
government involving an over paid
claim against, the Western and Atlan
tic Railroad, there has arisen a dis-,
<pate between Governor Colquitt mul
•ex-Governor Smith as to whether he,
‘Governor Smith, sanctioned or au
thorized a commission of 25 per cent
U K»n the amount recovered. Gov.
ernor Smith came*out in a long eom-
jnunication in the Atlanta Conelitu-
•fi ,n of the 311th ult addressed to
’Governor Colqnitt in which he de-
ny’s :feaving sanctioned the contract
by likofficia! signature and seeks to
<place tlve responsibility entirely upon
Ills successor in office. Governor
’Colquitt declines to notice this coin-
’munication or at least has not done
so as yet, taking the ]>osition, that he
■is responsible to the jieople of Gcor
gia for his official acts and not to ex-
tGovemor Smith. But General A
C. Gariington, one of the attorneys
in this case, having been alluded to
by Governor Smith in such way as
•he thinks does him wrong, comes out
rin a lengthy reply to Governor
Smith’s communication. Owing to
Tthe great length of these articles we
have been nnable to reproduce them
in the Georgian. But having care
fully read the statements of both
’these gentlemen and with no disposi
tion to make up other than an impar
tial judgment based entirely upon
the facts, we arc constrained to eon-
•elude, that Governor Smith although
■lie establishes the fact that he did
mot place his official signature to the
papers, yet fails to disprove his ros-
IpORsibility in this matter so far
as recognizing or sanctioning
the contracts, allowing the com
mission paid l>y Governor Colquitt,
in as much as lie permitted them
among his executive files without
«3teapproval, and according to the
tsworn affidavits of Messrs. Gariington
sand Alston, with a promise to give
them his approval at his earliest- con
venience; while General Gariington
in presenting the tacts in the ease as
.-sworn to by him and his associates,
•as •established by Governor Smith’s
•own executive usag", and r.s found
nipon file in the Executive office, fully
giroves Governor Smith’s responsi
bility an this matter of contract and
Justifies (Governor Colquitt in having
vpaid these attorney’s fees, which,
'snider the contract between them
tand this predeec sor, lie had no right
to withhold. Unfortunately, in this
whole matter, Governor Smith’s po®
:sition would rather indicate a spirit
tor temper which is more calculated
,»o do hint damage, than him whom
lie seeks to injure.
In the language of one whose words
were more patriotic than his deeds,

wliole affair, congratulate our needy
edd Commonwealth upon receiving

d** "been appointed to fill the vacant
.Judgeship of the Atlanta cerouit,
seated bv the death of Judge Cin-
•cetmiVU* Peeples. This is a good
appointment and gives general satis
faction.
last week or two, having not only
restored local rates to Athens upon
Western freights, hut reduced the
through freights to both Atlanta and
Augusta This outrage upon the
Iradu of Athens is made all the more
damaging at this time, the Air-Line
Railroad liaviug united with the
Georgia Road in its discriminations
against our city.
This matter, so seriously affecting
the busiuess interest of our commu
nity, should now be considered;
first, as to why this discrimination
against Athens? and secondly, how
this injustice should be inct by our
people, and what means devised to
counteract its injurious effect ?
As before stated, Athens is the
terminus of what has proven the best
paying portion of the Georgia Rail
road almost since its completion.
Here and in the section of country
tributary lo Athens, reside a large
proportion of the stockholders in this
ro.T*. Perhaps more than in any
other .town, city or section adjaceut
to ihe road, save the city of Angus;a.
We would feel almost safe in the
assertion that the amount of stock f
owned in Athens and its vicinity is j
double, if not treble, the amount'!
owned in Atlanta. Then, why should
Atlanta be more favored by this
road than Alliens ? Can it be owing
to a combination entered into be
tween the Georgia and Air-Line
Railroads in the interest of Augusta
and Atlanta ns against that of Athens?
Are there influences in these cities,
which, jealous of the trade that
legitimately belougs to Athens, have
combined to break it down, and
through motives as unjust as they
are selfish, are seeking to divert it in
new channels ? These or similar rea
sons must be at the bottom of this
movement, as wo are at a loss to
conceive of any good or just grounds
why Athens should not be allowed
through freghts rates on the Georgia
Road and over the Air-Line via the
Northeastern Rond.
Now as to how this discriminating
railroad combination should be met
by our merchants and what means
should be devised to counteract its
injurious effects upon the trade of our
ckv, we would rcspcctfulty suggest,
that our business men at once hold
a meeting and ns the Georgia Rond
unquestionably gave origin to this
movement solemnly and ummiinously
pledge themselves to withdraw all
patronage from this road and in fu
ture order all their freights from the
North and West over the Air Line
Iioud, so as to receive them via our
own Northeastern Railroad. This, it
is true, under existing circumstances
would not much lessen thu rate of
freights to Alliens, but it would be
sustaining our owu road, as certainly
every one should, and in the end
restore justice to Athens by teaching
the Georgia Railroad monopoly a
lesson it has long needed to learn.
Merchants, busiuess men of Atliens,
you have this matter iu your own
bands Then will you longer suffer
or permit this injustice and injury to
your business interest or will yon
move at once in the matter and by
united, unanimous and determined
action assert and maintain your
rights?
selves Accordingly.
SUBSCRIPTION^**
Owing to the very gjeatr stringen
cy of the times and the feet that the
cash has to be paid for everything in
our business, hereafter all subscrip
tions to either the Tri-Weekly or
Weekly Georgian must, be accom
panied with the cash. We are anx
ious to extend our subscription list,
but iu no instance will, there be made
an exception to this rule. Persons
then desiring the Georgian will please
bear the fact in mind and govern
themselves accordingly.
DELINQUENT SUBSCRIBERS.
There are a number of subscribers
on onr books from one to three years
in arrears. All such unless their sub
scription are paid up within the next
thirty days will be stricken from the
list and the accounts put in the
hands of proper attorneys for collec
tion. This course, as much as we
regret it, we are. forced , to adopt in
order to sustain our newspaper busi
ness. ... . *
JOB WORK.
All job work done at this office
must be paid for upon delivery. We
cannot afford to pay cash for material
to run our job department, and then
furnish both it and the work to be
done on time.
A D VE ItTISEM ENTS.
The terms of advertisements will
be agreed upon at the time they are
inserted, but in no instance will the
time be extended beyond the expira

no case will advertisements be inser

must always be specified. This rule
is made necessary by reason of the
fact, that parties never fail to com

will be to continue neither advertise

Suffering in the Country.
Reports are that, there >is ntncli
suffering in the country oil account
of the inability of many to obtain the
necessaries of life under the present
suspension oft he credit system. ■ This
is likely to bring serious disaster to
our section of the country if some
means of relief" is not provided. It
will in all probability result in a great
falling off in the agricultural’receipts
next fall, which result must necessari
ly be felt by all.
Now while every one nmst admit
that a too unlimited credit has been
very ruinous to the industrial^terest
of our country, and should be proper
ly and wisely checked, still an entire
suspension thereof just at this time
before an opportunity has been given
tlie farmers to adapt their necessities
to the new order of things, Would
seetu unwise and must inevitably lie
followed by that suspension of busi
ness and consequent suffering,
which will become wide-spread-in its
effects. Then "we would suggest,
that our business and trading men
hold a meeting at an early day, in
order to devise some' sure and safe
relief to this condition of a -4 *'

at 7 per cent., $770,000, leaving only
$100,000 to pay the current expenses

1870, the Legislature cost the people
an average, for each year, of 8324,-
000. The Legislature of 1876, cost
$111,000, of which, $26,000 was paid
to the clerical expenses. Then it
will be seen that the Legislatures
from 1868 to 1877, cost the State on
an average of over $180,000 a year.
The present Constitution says the
people of Georgia were rebels It
further says that wc owe a higher
allegiance to the general Govern
ment than we do to our own State
Government. If these clauses had
been in the Constii ution of the United
States immediately after the war, the
best blood ot the Southern people
would have been shed upon the gal
lows to satisfy tire ferocious appetites
of the Northern fanatics and our ma
lignant haters of that day. The
Supreme Court of the United States,
iu accordance with the principles of
constitutional law, aud iu opposition
to the provisions of our present State
Constitution, decided that the allegi
ance of the citizen was due to his
State government, and consequently
that Southern soldiers were not trai
tors and could not be hung for
treason. Tims President Davis and
Gi-neral Lee escaped being executed
as rebels and for treason... Demos

tacts before yon, and then say wheth

tional Convention. Whether or not
we should still cling with so much

present fraudulent Constitution.

onr section of thu country. This
can be done without danger ot- any
very great iuconveuieucc to the
trading interest-of otir community
and certainly would prove advanta
geous to all concerned, and a much
needed relief to many, now in a
straightened and suffering condition.
We were much gratified to learn from
one of the largest capitalist in out^city,
one doing an extensive business in our
midst, that he was ready to unite in
an effort to relieve the necessities cfour
people. This is certainly very praise
worthy, and we trust so noble and
generous a spirit will be found amongst
others, and that this matter of grave
importance will soon receive the at
tention of those from whom the needed
relief must come.
The floods on the Danube continue
to prevent the crossing of the Rus
sians. .
The excitement in France is still
on the increase and a revolution
seems almost inevitable in tlie near
future. A London dispatch to the
New York Herald of the 5th Inst,
says, tho Dnc de Broglie’s administra
tion in France insists oil stirring up
the political hornets’ nest. Yester
day the President of the Municipal
Council of Paris, M. Dnverdier, was
arrested and imprisoned for the
offense of allnding to MacMahon in
an after dinner s|>oech the other day.
The ucfe (PaccuMtion states that he
was inciting to uiurde^and civil war.
To say tlie best for the government
this action is unprecedented. Parties
implicated in writing or making
speeches having a tendency to depre
ciate or caricature the President and
his Cabinet have hitherto been
ailowed to go on parole until the trial.
Bail was offered by two members of
the Council, but tin* government,
alleging bis offeuce to be serious, re
fused it. He is, therefore, shut up
like a common butcher. Dnverdier
is a strong. man with the populace,
aud any unjust punishment may pro.
dttce serious consequences.
Sitting Bull is rather disposed to
get upon the war-path again. Re
ports from tlie frontier country say,
that tho Red-Devils are gathering in
Yellow Slone Valley and preparations
for war are ically going on. It is
thought that the Custer butcher is at
the bottom of the mischietj and that
active steps will again have., to be
taken by the United States before
the. Sionx are made to bury their
tomahawks and remain in a state of
quiet surrender.

The Atlanta Constitution.
Under its new management, The Atlanta
Con8titet:on has won for itself the title of the
lending journal of the south. Its enterprise,
diiriug the recent election excitement, in send
ing correspondents to different portions of the
country, aud its series of special telegrams from
Washington while the electoral commission was
engaged in eonsninating. the fraud that placed
radicalism once more in power in onr national
councils, are evidences conspicuous enough to
i»n>ve that no expense will be spared to make
The Constitution not only a leader in the dis
cussion of matters of public concern, but a
leader iu the dissemination of the latest and
most reliable news. There is no better time
than now to subscribe for
A Fresh and Vigorous Newspaper.
Albeit, there has been a q-.im! settlement of
one of the must difttendt and dangerous pro
blems of modem federal! polities, the discussions
spring therefrom and the results likely to ensue
have lost nothing of their absorbing interest.
In addition to this, tlie people of Georgia ure
now called upon to settle
The Oonreniian (jaeution,
and in the disenssion of this important subjaret
(in which The CoKBTtTrrioN will take n leading
port) every Georgian is interested. If a conven
tion is called its proceedings wilt find their
earliest and fullest embodiment in the colnmna
•f The Constitution, and .this fact alone-will
make the paper indispensable to every citizen, of
the state. To be brief^
The Atlanta Daily Constituliuu
will endeavor, by all the means that the pro
gress of modern journalism has made possible
aud necessary to bold its place as a leader of
southern opinion aud os a purveyor of the latest
news. Its editorials will be thoughtful, timely
and vigorous—calm and argumentative in theii
methods and thoroughly southern and demo
cratic in their sentiments. Its news will be
fresh, reliable and carefully digested. It will
be allcrt uud enterprising, and tio expense will
be spired to nuke it tho medium cf the latest
and roost important intelligence.

Besides embodying everything of interest in
the daily, The Weekly Constotjtion will con
