THE ATHENS GEOHGAIN: SEPTEMBER 4, 1877.
MI!
In n«r opinion, tho Athens Gear- jail prohal>iIity will meet with a rati*
fiian is d ing an unwise tlnnsr in con- fication on the part of the people,
(lemmncr m advance the constitution
now being made. Is thp editor of the
Georgian not influenced somewhat
by prejudice?—LaGrange Reporter.
Our brother of the Reporter cer
tainly does us great injustice in the
above paragraph, which we clip from
his issue of the 23rd in«t. In the
first place, we did not condemn the
constitution, for not until this date
did we know what this would be.
We, of course, could not speak in
commendation or condemnation of
wlnt we had not seen or known.
We have, however, been very frank
and free to condemn that unjustifiable
course of tho convention when it so
far forgot its high duty as to con
sume t*>e time of the body and waste
the public money, in meddling with
those things which alone belong to
the legislative branch ot our govern
ment, and especially in abusive, dem
agogical and buncombe speeches. If
our brother Waterman tailed to set
his seal of condemnation on these
tilings, he then failed of his high duty
as a journalist. While we have not
part of the peopl
This result is made all the more prob
able as regards the Constitution sub
mitted as a whole, since the questions
of “ Homestead’’ and “ Capital 5 ’ have
been submitted as separate ordis
nances.
Now that the Convention has
ended and its work has been submit
ted to the adjudication of the people,
and while much of the proceedings of
the body brought both disappoint
ment and dissatisfaction to the public
mind, it now becomes the duty of
every citizen ol Georgia to rise above
these considerations and placing him-
s If upon a just and impartial plat
form, to examine well and wisely the
proposed organic law, that in so doing
he may be enabled to cast his vote in
accordance with what he honestly
conceives to be best for both the
present and future interest of our
Stale.

against tne Constitutional Convention gentle
