Our neighbor, the Eagle, seems to
have shrunk up to the inside size of
the switch end of the sideling of the
Georgia railroad that comes up to the
Arlington House privy and ignores
the little Air Line railroad entirely.
\V"e suppose the Eagle has concluded
since the switch took up their line
connecting with the Air-Line that
that company is busted and Gaines

Can’t Little Breeches tell the truth
when he has our paper before him?
We did not say he “was not a teller
in the democratic caucus.” We said
(and there are plenty of that issue
of the Southron to be found) that
“Howard Thompson was secretary,
and Little Breeches was not.” We
now say he ought to have bebn sec re
tar}’, teller and treasurer. Is that
satisfactory, Bub ?
We suggest to the democratic
convention, which meets today in
Chicago, to engraft a copy of the
Piedmont Press and Long John's
cablegrams from Ham as their plat
form. Their tariff ideas, civil service
reform proclivities and national fame
will insure success. If the party lets
this opportunity slip, it will commit
another of its serious blunders, and
will deserve the defeat that awaits it.
Col. H. W. J. Pigeon Booster, the

The democrats of the olden time
reached the White House by the
straight forward front way—always
stepping from a well supported and
thoroughly braced platform. The
reform democrats of to day are dis
gusted with platforms and platform
builders* and are endeavoring to
reach the goal of their ambition by
climbing- a freshly skinned pine pole
leaning “horizontally” from the back
alley. They fail to recognize that
principle of equity, as old as the
common law, that they tnust recover
upon their own strength, and not
upon the weakness of their enemies.
REFORMERS.
The poor old demon a,i ‘c party—
that grand organization f ,it flashed
into existence lijke a v ,uaor in the.
days o,f the patriots, a was so long
an honest party—a ; • r y of princi
ples and bold aggress;. -platforms —.
has at last/weakeued down to a
“jfack-wilh a-lantern” o ganization—
that is to savu it+whi.ies but occasion
ally, but the light it throws off is only
intended for a snare am! a delusion.
It has thousands bf good and" true
men in its yanks, but the leaders are
a set of skulkers tha like maggots
are- endeavoring to fatten, on what
they once called, the festering sores
of its enemies. We all recollect that
during the administration of Presi
dent Grant, a measure passed Con
gress that the leaders of the demo-
cratic party called the “salary grab”
bill. That measure doubled the allow
ance of the President of' the United
States, and did nearly the same for
the members of Congress. The howl
that went up among the faithful (?)
was deafening, and many good and
true members of Congress, who dared
to take the ‘grab’ that had been pro
vided for them by their enemies, and
which they had opposed with all their
might, were relegated to the shades of
private life, without being allowed a
word in explanation or self defense.
Col. W. P. Price, at Dahlonega, ship
wrecked on that rock, although he
‘soaked’ his part of the grab in the
North Georgia Agricultural College.
Gen. P. M. B. Young, of the seventh
district, and gallant Tom Norwood,
United States Senator from Georgia,
in those days, were passengers on the
same boat that went to pieces away
up the democratic salt creek.
Norwood never appreciated-how far
below the democratic zero that vote
placed him, until he dared to run for
Governor against Gen. Colquitt, and
then it was that the honest indigna
tion of our little Allen D. Candler
broke loose in tirades of abuse, that
made the seed ticks on the grassy
knobs in Banks prick up their ears
like unto a mule.
But times -have changed. Mind
you, when the “salary grab bill” was
passed, the republican party had full
control of all the departments of the
government. Now it is different. The
democrats have control of the money
bags—the appropriation bills all
originate in a democratic house.—
With this state of things, then, the
people who have been accustomed to
hear the vamping and vaperings of
their bosses, naturally inquire what
has become of the salary grab busi
ness? We are compelled (although
it is one of the. most humiliating
confessions we ever made) to say the
grab i§**‘there yet, Eli.”
With all the bombast, and bun
combe reform and investigations that
we have heard so much about recent
ly, the salary grab stands still in bold
King’s English on our statue books,
and each Simon-pure democratic
statesman walks up regularly to the
captain’s office and draws it like a
vampire. Our little Allen D. Can
dler, who is such a reformer that he
can’t sleep because deputy collectors
of interna! revenue and deputy U. S.
marshals and gaugers draw/ their
little wages for their work, has
never thought of the fact, that in
the iionest hays of pure undefiled
Jeffersonian democracy, such men as
Thomas Jefferson, John C. Calhoun,
Robert Y. Ha\ne, Robert Toombs
and the long list of illustrious states
men who were democrats, served for
less than one half of the $5,000 he is
now receiving, without even a word
of protest. But wade in “Plow Boy of
Pigeon Roost,” while you can touch
bottom, for the time cometh when
your-sort will see i hey have builded
on a sandy foundation, wdth ho bot
tom to it! We recollect when the
hue and cry was raised in Georgia
over the fact that Bullock’s legisla
tors were taking for their services
$9.00 per da}-. The people rose in
their majesty and sent new men in
the places of the Bullock crowd.
They reduced their pay the first
thing to $7.00, and finally it dropped
to $4.00, and to both reductions the
people cried Amen!
Georgians are not different from
other peoples. One of these days
the long suffering folks who are now
quietly working their corn and eot
ton, are going to rise like they did in
the days of Oliver Cromwell, and then
the “reformers” (?) who have been
working at the mote in their neigh
bor’s eyes, but giving no attention to
the hcaDrin their own, will deserved
ly share the fate of Charles I and his
creed; and all the honest people,
democrats and republicans will say
A MEN I

THE RAILROAD COMMISSION.
Considerable discussion is going
the rounds of the press as to the pro
priety of abolishing our Railroad
Commission, and we wish to haye our
tilt along with the boys.
In the first place, we do not think
its establishment has retarded rail
road building in-tlie State, as more
miles of road have been built since
the passage of the act than at an}’
similar period of time in her history.
Wherever the demands of commerce
have called for a railroad the money
has been found with which to build
it,'and only wild cat railroad schemes
find no subscribers. When there is
nothing in the route and financiers
know it and are aware of the fact that
they cannot fleece the people,'they
don’t put their money into it, but if
there is a solid demand for the road,
a good country to support it when
built, the money is forthcoming.
In the next place, not a single rail
road in the State has defaulted since
the establishment of the Commission,
while every railroad built since the
war before the creation of the Com
mission has been through bankrupt
cy. If the Commission be ruinous to
the railroads how do they steer clear
of bankruptcy?
The check of the commission makes
the management cautious and frugal,
while unbridled license creates ex
travagance, speculation and ruin to
the holders of its stock and securities.
The roads built here become more
of an investment than a gambling
scheme, and hence honest investors
prefer Georgia where the management
is compelled to stick to legitimate
business in honest roads, instead of
wild imaginary profits in a bogus rail
load with nothing in it, save anew
chance to gamble in Wall street.
Lastly, we are in favor of an amend
ment to the law. The Commission
has too much and too arbitrary power.
The right of appeal to the courts
should be preserved and given the
roads, but not in such a manner as to
destroy the effect of the Commission.
Let its edict stand until reversed by
the courts and not be suspended by
reason of appeal during its pendency.
This would insure justice to the peo
ple and ample rights to the railroads.
The entire abolition of the Commis
sion would be a long step backward
and we are. opposed to it, but the
modifications suggested, it occurs to
us, are all that is necessary.
Our Commission is a model one,
and numbers of our sister States are
trying to establish it for the govern
ment of their roads and protection of
the people against discrimination,
and until-Congress shall have passed
an international railroad commission
act they could do no better than'ad
opt it. With the amendments sug
gested the Commission has got a long
career of usefulness before it.
The democratic party in this sena
torial district care nothing about who
Pete Lawhse, or any other carpet-bag
republican, may nominate f*. r senato
rial honors. What has the Southron
to do with it? Who recognizes the
Southron as authority in the business
of the democratic party, in this sena
torial district? if the republicans
want a candidate they have plenty of
material, and plenty of time, and the
democrats of Banks county will not
object to Pete Lawshe as their leader.
In the meantime, we suppose the
democrats of Haii and Jackson will
be able to take care of themselves,
with the rotation plan included, if
necessary.—North Georgian.
We can truthfully say that we don’t
wish to dictate to the bourbon wing of
the democratic party in this district
as to whom they shall nominate in
this senatorial district to represent
them in the next State Senate. On
the contrary, we desire that they
shall be perfectly free to trot out
whomsoever the Gainesville nine
mny “nominate,” and then the inde
pendent people (of whom we are only
one) will very likely 1< t the Gaines
vijje nine know at the ballot box
whether or not they have ‘nominated’
the right man. So far as we are con
oerned, we are for Col. W. 1,. Marler,
a democrat, we believe, for Senator, if
he is a candidate, whether the Gaines
ville nine and the North Georgian
“nominate” him or not. This is the
sort of a hair pin we are, and that is
the kind of people that inhabit the
thirty third senatorial district, as we
believe. Lot the procession proceed,
Bro. North Georgian.
SENATOR MAHOSTI3.
Senator Mahone has done more
than any one hundred men within
her borders to rescue Virginia from
hopeless bankruptcy and perpetual
disgrace, and yet there are more than
one hundred unregenerated bourbons
in Virginia who denounce Senator
Mahone as a “traitor to his State,”
and a disgrace "to himself and the
people for whom lie has done so
liiuch to place once more upon the
plane of respectability occupied by
most of tiie other States of this great
Union. Mr. Mahone is less hurt in
the eyes of the conservative world in
this warfare than the State of Vir
ginia, and will outlive its results first.

SPEER HIS PARD.
Mr. Speer is feting manfully for
his friend BiftjEanion, in Atlanta.
In his writ of ha||eas corpus, he makes
two points WteaTOllj * n probability,
keep William going back to the
free state\~Xb<L following we blip
from the Const •■ion, which explains
the ends which ill*. Speer is working
to save his former foend:
. “The issues involved are very im
portant. Th of; J concern the whole
question of courts contracts by which
contracts for misdemeanors are hired
out to those wh<*pay their fines. It
will be confcendfd by the counsel of
William that thetlaw-authorizing such
contracts wall "adopted in 1874, and
repealed in 18'|8, and besides that,
that the law itself is simply another
form of imprisonment for debt and is
unconstitutional’and that nobody but
the governor besfthe right to commute
the sentence of one convicted and
sentenced forcing, and that therefore
no such contract—-which it is con-
tended is realty a commutation or
change of sentence —can be main
tained by thcourts. It has never
been directly decided by the supreme
court, althouojt&ases strongly analo
gous have been decided maintaining
this position... 1878 the legislature
of the state amended section 4310
under which thff punishment for ille
gal voting is irtfiicted, adding a pro
viso that nothing herein contained
shall authorize toe giving of control
of convicts to sally ate persons or their
employment bj r county authorities
in such pursuits as will bring the
products of theililabor in competition
with the products of free labor.’ ”
Panion was tog* Candler during the
late campaign, 4nd worked up the
negroes of Mad'rlbn county in support
of the ticket. Rut doubt
less he has led Mr. Speer to believe
that he is a victim of persecution on
his account.—Banner-Watchman.
Tne ease to vtoicli Editor Gantt
refers in the above was settled last
week in favor of Mr. Speer and his
“Pard,” in an elaborate opinion ren
dered by Ordinary Calhoun of Fulton
county. The decision is sound and
right, and will at once put a stop to
this trading and speculation in the
labor of convicts as though they were
mules and oxen, and also to chanoino'
the sentence of tjae courts to suit the
convenience of the speculators in hu
man labor. It may be true that “Bill
Panion” voted for Candler, as nearly
all illegal votes in the district were
cast for him. At the same time it is
fortunate for Biff that he induced
Speer to take up his case, as his
ankles would have been worn to the
bone by his sk-s4vki.es, and liis back
scourged by many stripes before the
Bantam of Pigeon Boost cau under
stand the principles of law upon
which he was tuined loose, let alone
have the ability to present them to a
court with sufficient force to release
Bill, or any other) of his illegal vot
ing crowd. f

Of all things #<stestable that God
in his great mercy allows to live and
breath upon this earth, the man who
will wilfully tell or write a malicious
lie for the purpose of breaking down
the personal character of his fellow
man, although he be an open or even
a secret political enemy, is the vilest
and as fully deserves the punishment
set apart for such in the Bible, after
his miserable life on earth is ended,
as the midnight assassin or ineen
diary deserves the rope or guillotine
here for the protection of society.
We have had many a political fight
in the long years w r e have conducted
a newspaper, and have given and
taken many hard things openly and
above board, but whenever we strike
a man’s personal character in the
dark and with deliberate falsehood,
we hope God will paralyze our tongue
before the utterance or our hand be
fore it is written. Yes, our brain
before it is conceived.
Ihe Democratic party is always
ready to receive recruits, and will
treat all such with due consideration,
but it is amusing to see an individual
attempt to take position at the head
of the column and claim to be as good
a democrat as any body, who,° for
years, has b en fighting the party,
voting against its candidates, and
doing every thing in his power to
disrupt and destroy the organization.
It would be mors in record with the
eternal fitness of things for such to

The bourbon papers are publishing
what they say is John A. Logan’s
record in Illinois upon the negro
question, and they make him out the
most inveterate negro hater in the
United States. These publications
are of course false, but if they are
true how can any bourbon democrat,
South of Mason’s and Dixon’s line,
go back upon him and make any
show of consistency, as negro hatred
is the main plank of their political
creed. Wc should think John A.
Logan would be one of their patron
saints, since their late discovery of
his orthodoxy as a genuine bourbon
of long standing. Do they now in
tend to go back upon their beautiful
record and vote against one of their
pioneers ?
IMPORTANT NOTICE.
Lippincdtt & Cos. haye now in press,
shortly to be delivered to the gasping
public the speeches of the Hon. A.
D. Candler, M. G., 9th district of
Georgia, delivered during the first
session oGthe present Congress. Al
ready orders for the Ist edition of
250,000 have been received and an
edition of 100,000 more will shortly
be put through to supply the pressing
demand.
It is generally conceded that the
book will take the place of all text
works on political economy in our
schools and universities. The capac
ity with which he has advanced as
one of the soundest statesmen of the
country has no parallel. John C-
Calhoun in his palmiest days has
been distanced.
Reared among the mountains of
North Georgia, where he early came
in contact with the Shetland ponies
in and around the famous Pigeon
Roost mines he layed bare, to the
wondering eyes of this glorious repub
lic the grand future that awaits the
man of brains, vim and energy who
will-only seize the possibilities as they
pass.
In addition to this Demosthenes
and Cicero are said to pale into in
significance in point of eloquence to
this wonderful prodigy from tfie far
famed 9th. Only quote a few pas
sages of these speeches from hi3 elo
quent tongue, and your character as
an orator is established. His elocu
tion is said to transcend even the
reading of these now famous extem
poraneous efforts.
This wonderful book can be pur
chased at all the book stores through
out the land, but as the present edi
tion is only limited we would advise
our readers to send directly to H.
W. J. Ham, Long John or Little
Breeches, who are prepared to fill all
orders.
MATCHES.
From an article in a recent New
York Trade Journal we learn that
the price of matches will doubtless
advance before next September.
Foreign manufacturers have been
shipping large quantities of various
brands to the United States billed at
about one fifth their value, reducing
the duty to a very small percentage
of the prices received for them when
sold. Since an investigation of the
swindle, there will be a change made,
protecting American producers.
Matches, for six months, have been
selling at such ridiculously low
prices, that this advance has been
expected for some time, and will not
■worprise jobbers of the useful com
mod it}’. i
The “parlor match” is taking the
lead, and it is only a question of £
short time when the disagreeable and
unreliable little sulphur match will
be entirely superceded by the more
satisfactory kind that emits no pois
onous furnes, and burns with a
brighter, steadier flame.
POLITICAL.
To-day the National Democratic
Convention meets at Chicago to nom
inate their candidates for President
and vice President of this great and
grand republic. If there work shall
be patriotically and wisely done, this
will be a hotly and closely contested
canvass, but if they should, as they
commonl}’ do, make a fatal mistake
in men and platform, the “plumed
knight” and “Black Jack” will walk
into the White House with the largest
electoral and popular vole that has
been cast for President since Lin
coln’s last election. The masses of
the people of this country are not
partizan to a degree that they will
sink their patriotism in aiding a lot
of politicians in their wild hunt for
the spoils of office, while the business
and laboring classes aie left to go to
the dogs.
Neal Yarbrough’s pardon, which
has been expected for several days
came to hand yesterday. It was
signed by the President on the re
commendation of Hon. Emory Speer
and Judge 11. J. McCay. As soon as
the pardon was received yesterday
morning Sir. Speer, accompanied by
his little daughter, went to St.
Joseph’s Infirmary for the purpose of
delivering it to the unfortunate man.
The sweet little girl, full well com
prehending the import of the paper,
had the pleasure of placing it into
Yarbrough’s hands, and as she did
so his eyes filled with tears, expressive
of his deep gratitude, l'he Sisters
were also grateful, and the scene was
quite impressive. Mr. Yarbrough is
entitled to a suit of clothes and five
dollars in cash, and will leave for his
home, in Banks county, to night.—
Atlanta Journal.
We call attention to the citizens of
Chicago to the fact that about the Bth
of July, Georgia will seud up about
twenty four representative gentlemen
to tire democratic convention. As
there are no revenue pimps or negroes
among them, you need not be as care
ful as you were at the last “appint
ment.” Any little thing left lying
around loose will not be molested.—

THE RECENT FAILURES.
New York,*July 2.—-The failures
for the” six months ending Julyl,
1884, are reported by R. G. Dun & Cos.
to number 5,510, as compared with
4,637 in the first six months of 1883,
an increase of 873 about
<lB percent. The liabilities for the
first half of 1884 foot up to the
enormous sum of $124,000,000 as
compared with $66,000,000, in the
period of 1883, or nearly double. The
great growth of liabilities is directly
traceable to the recent panic, which
has mainly centered in New York
city. This conclusion is illustrated
by the fact that the liabilities in the
past three months, of parties who
have failed in New York, comprises
more than half of those noted in all
the failures of the entire United
States in that period. That the fail
ures which have occurred are largely
confined to speculative quarters, is
shown by the fact that the average
indebtedness if parties failing in the
last six months is $38,000 for each
failure, as compared with but SIB,OOO
in the similar periods of ISB3. A
higher average amount of liabilities
has been reached in the last six
months than ever before. The agency
claim that the legitimate business ol
the country suffers no serious result
from these failures, that the condition
of preparedness for a panic had been
reached, and that the balance of the
year may witness a fairly profitable
demand for merchandise, with results
satisfactory.
The effort of the Constitution and
a few prominent citizens of Atlanta
to whitewash John H. James and his
bank swindle, is no credit to them
nor benefit to the city. The magni
tude of the fraud cannot be sup
pressed nor the Calamity to hundreds
of citizens averted. Any amount of
salving over will not buy bread, pay
debts or liquidate the house rents of
the victims. Belter to tell the truth
and meet the results of the disaster
without lingering pain. Most sensi
ble people, when they are obliged to
go, would rather die in a minute than
linger for a month, and then “kick
the bucket” at last.
