WHO COMMENCED IT?
We regret exceedingly to have to chronicle
the fact that the present campaign has
merged from the discussion of the legitimate
issues Before the people to one of villification
and personal abuse.
Mr. Speer and bis friends have been for the
last three weeks circulating reports concern
ing the private character of Col. Billups,
which, if true, would hardly fit him for the re
sponsible office of Representative to Congress
from this District.
We 1 iave been trying to see what the cause
of this course can be —whether or not the or
ganized Democracy have been the first to
adopt this mode of warfare. To the best of
our recollection and judgment, we cannot
now recall a single instance where Mr. Speer’s
private character has been the subject of at-
tack. If is true, that when he spoke at this
place during Court week, he alluded to a cer
tain charge of a local nature that he said had
Been circulated against him. This we are
sure never obtained a fair local circulation,
for we are certain Mr. Speer told it to more
here the day he spoke than had ever heard it
before, and when lie denied it. that was the
last of it. as we have never heard it mention
ed since. The same thing has happened to
the charge of drunkenness. No one urges
r? o
any of these things against Mr. Speer since
his denial of them, granting them to be of a
personal nature. We have yet to hear of the
man who has, upon the stump, accused Mr-
Speer of either dishonesty or drunkenness.
We come now to the presentments of the
Grand Jury of the county of Gwinnett. We
mention this, not because we think it is a di
rect charge against Mr. Speer's private char
acter, for we do not so consider it, but be
cause some may think so. And the charge
lias been made that it is a trumped up affair ;
nothing else but a political persecution. To
say that it was manufactured for political pur
poses is to charge twenty-three men with vio
lating their most solemn obligations, and this
should not be done, unless the parties who
make the charges are able to bring the proof
to sustain them.
We do not think it was the intention of
that body to bring into question Mr. Speer’s
honest}*, but only to get the matter in the pro
per shape to get a hearing before the Courts
upon a question which Mr. Speer and others
differed. We can see nothing like political
persecution or a desire to slander a man’s
character in this matter. They did not re
commend a criminal prosecution, but only
such’steps as might lead to a settlement of
the point upon which they disagreed. We
have never fora moment thought or believed
that Mr. Speer had stolen, or could be made
to steal, money from the county of Gwinnett.
We know him too well to think that be would
-stoop so low.
But, granting that all these charges be per j
sonal, can Mr. Speer, or his friends, show
i
that Col. Billups has ever uttered one of them
in public or private, or that he has advised
his friends to do so ? Then why should Mr.
Speer attack him in the manner that lie has
been doing for the last three weeks ? We
would like to know what is his excuse for pa
rading deeds and certificates before the hon
est voters of this District, and take tip their
valuable time in traducing the private char
acter of one of their fellow-citizens, when he
has called them together to listen to a discus
sion of the political issues of the day. But,
what iuake3 it worse, he knows that the use
he is making of them is conveying a different
meaning entirely from the true one. That
Mr. Speer’s better judgment, or that high
sense of honor which we know him to posess.
urges him to this course we can never be per
suaded to believe. We must think that it
is the result of ill-advised and wicked minded
men, who have persuaded him to adopt this
method of warfare, which we know to Be
Both foreign and objectionable to his nature.
Mr. Speer surely has not considered the ef
fect of these charges. It lias put Col. Bil
lups upon the defensive. He has Been driven
to the necessity of defending his private char
acter from these false charges. This lie is
doing most successfully, lie is following in
Mr. Speer's tracks, and making the recoil of
the Independent’s accusations fall upon his
own head. The result is, that Mr. Speer's
own followers hang their heads in shame, so
complete is Col. Billups' vindication.
That this is the last card o( the Independ
! cuts, we have no doubt. They have endeav
ored in every possible manner to beat the
nominee; they have left no honorable means
untried, and seeing utter failure staring them
in the face, in their desperation they have re
sorted to slander, not for an instant thinking
that the blow would fall upon their own de
voted heads not dreaming that they are dig
ging the political grave of the man whom they
arc endeavoring to push into Congress.
Senator Cordon.
The Independent is the hardest and most
unreasonable man to please we have ever met.
with. Nothing you do suits him. lie is al
ways contrary, and cannot brook opposition,
lie styles himself independent, free, &c., and
yet he will not allow other people to do to
suit their own taste or convenience. He is
independent, but he desires no one else to be
so. Your Independent orators dwell upon
the idea of being able to vote without dicta
tion from anybody ; tells the voter to be free
iu everything, and turns around and tries to
muzzle public opinion, and complains if
others, who think different from him, dare to
speak to the people upon questions vital to
their interests. They have gone so far as to
threaten Gen. Gordon because he made a
speech in Gainesville in favor of the Demo
cracy. This, in their eyes, is the “ unpardon
able sin,” and now they pour out the vials of
their wrath upon hisvlevoted head, promising
to do- their utmost to defeat him before the
present Legislature; if he dares to show hk?
head for re-election to his present seat in the
United States Senate, one which he has filled
to the satisfaction and admiration of the peo
ple, both North and South
He is to be retired because lie dared to
maintain the principles of his party and stick
to them when lie saw them traduced and
abused in no honeyed language. This is his
crime, and, in the eye of the Independent, he
could not do worse.
Again : from the Independent’s talk, you
would conclude that all Billups lacks is a war
record ; that if he had just been in the war
he would Be entirely unobjectionable to them ;
and yet, when they arc confronted by one of
the leaders of the gray—-one whose jacket is
scarred with bullet holes and bespattered with
blood ; when one of the immortal galaxy of
stars who surrounded the lamented Lee dares
to disagree with them, they show him no more
respect than if he had never poured out his
life blood to defend their firesides. This, we
think, is a refutation of their many protesta
tions about the respect they have for the gray,
and proves to our mind that they regard or
respect nothing that opposes their vaulting
ambition. But they cannot muzzle or bull
doze Gen. Gordon into silence with the idea
of defeating him for the Senate, llis hold is
too strong upon the people. They know him
too well to listen to those who would oppose
him because be dares to maintain and speak
for the principles of his party.
—Gordon and Ilill are to be remanded to
the shades of private life, and the Atlanta
Constitution is to be telescoped for opposing
Lndependentism. Look out, William Arp,
your time next.
—From the Southron, we learn that Belcher
replied to Speer in Madison, Morgan county,
on last Saturday. We wonder if he showed
those letters. We are anxious to hear from
them.
Washington Letter.
[From our regular Correspondent.]
Washington, D. C., Oct. 18.
Now that Democratic ascendency in both
Houses of the 46th Congress is assured be
yond a reasonable doubt, our Republican
friends don't laugh as loud as they did. They
were a little boisterous the morning after the
Ohio election, over what seemed to be a small
victory in that State, but it was about like
the whistle of a timid boy in passing a grave
yard. And after the returns wore all in, from
which it appeared that the party is really in a
minority of over 10,000 in the State, while
the Democrats had gainevl everything of na
tional importance, the whistling became
mighty hard work. 1 personally know tha‘
the leaders have abandoned all hope of gain
ing control of the House, which they so free
ly boasted would be theirs at the opening of
the campaign. Nothing short ofa“tida’
wave” could give it to them now, and the ti
dal waves arc not running that wav. Tli
managers have a scheme which is being vig
orouslv manipulated. Was there ever rvti.n
when Radical managers did not have a
scheme? In all their desperate situation
they have a programme to work—a line to
hew to. They are as full of expedients as a
dog is of fleas, and they act upon the theory
that desperate cases require desperate meas
ures. A party that could plan and execute
the theft of States which had voted against
them by 10.009 majority—that, could steal
the Presidency with over 250,000 majority of
popular votes and 13 electoral votes against
them—such a party is not likely to he stop
ped at small tilings. The programme
is to prevent the Democrats from obtaining
a majority in the Congressional delegations
from twenty States in order to defeat the elec
tion of a Democratic President in 1880. —
Under the unit rule each State casts one vote
in an election by the House, a majority of the
members from a State determining how the
vote shall be cast. If by the expenditure of
money and otlnr desperate means the dele
gations of a few small States like Florida can
l>e tied so that neither party has a clear ma
jority of States, they would then direct their
efforts to preventing an election by the peo
ple, and finally as a result of this state of
I things seize the Government and continue
I themselves in power. Anything to enable
I them to hold on after March 4, 1881. They
j have certainly considered all these points,
and Ilale’s private confidential circular lias
been sent to the managers in certain States
against which their efforts are to be directed.
The Democrats are now certain of the delega
tions from seventeen States—Hale's figures
give them that—and the question is can they
! be prevented from getting the other three ? I
opine not.
The biggest lunatic connected with this
! fraudulent administration is the head of the
! Garden Seed Department—the Government
Pumpkin factory, as a local journal dubs it.
I Commissioner Lc Due is always propagating
some new project, to accomplish some impos
sible and unheard of thing. He is as full of
j crotchets as an egg is of meat. 1I is latest ef
fort is directed to raising bamboo in Ameri
j ca. lie has just ordered a large quantity of
; shoots from Japan for planting in this coun
! try, and expressed his belief that their eult
j ure can be made a success. Nobody knows
just what will be done with it after it is grown,
i but then bamboo culture is a big thing in Ja
| pan, and of course it must take the place of
I such common products as corn and wheat in
the United States. Now, that Le Due has
' successfully covered the land with teeming
fields of tea—which can be raised in thiscoun
|t ry for at least $5 per pound—it is time for
jhiin to discover anew industry. If he can
| once get the people to raising bamboo it may
perhaps take the place of the native birch,
which possesses disciplinary virtues hitherto
unsurpassed. The bamboo is also said to be
useful in packing silk-worm eggs which Le
Due hopes to make a leading product of this
country before his term expires. But one
more thing appears to remain for the Com
missioner to do; he should import a lot of
Canary bird seed from Japan or somewhere
else and see if our native soil cannot be util
ized in raising an improved kind of song-bird.
A petition now in circulation here is to he
presented to Congress when it assembles ac
cusing the Commissioner of misappropriating
the funds of his department to pay female j
clerks, employed at the instance of members
wliose inlluence lie needed in the effort to i
make the head of the Agricultural Depart-!
ment a Cabinet officer. What Commissioner
Le Due ought to know is that this country
isn't nervously demanding the cultivation of
any new crops of Government clerks, but it
does resolutely demand that he shall attend
to his duties of gathering and disseminating
information tending to improve agricultural
products here'on the soil of our native land.
The herring crop is reported disastrously i
short this year, and it might prove a public
benefaction if he would get some seed and j
raDe a few boxes of choice herring as a kind
of pleasant experiment while engaged in the
more earnest work of growing sugar plums j
and tea and canned mushrooms and such j
tilings. Phono.
