returoo I lrotn over the seu>.
Mr Piesident and Gentlemen of
Pioneer Hook <fc ladder Company :
Ih :ive again the honor and pleasure
of presenting to you an annual res
port. The year has been one of un
usual interest, being full of active
work, both in the hall and field. We
have sueceded in ui ousing considerable
interest in our company bv tho elec-
tian to honorary inemher-Vib, o» for
ty-one of Athens most popular ladies,
their interest in the company has been
clearly evinced in the banquet to the
company on the 14th of May, and
the opera of “The Doctor of Alcan
tara.’’ The company lias uniformed
itself ::t- ail expense of 844.66, have
ptirel aged five -(leaking trumpets at
at an expense of $44.50 ; the trucks
have been revarnished and the ladder
-painted ami varnished.
One ot the most notable occurren
ces ot the year was our excursion to
Rome Ga., where we met the flower
of llini department, and carried off
two prizes, one ot one hundred, the
other ot twenty-five dollars. The ex
pense to the company for railroad
fare, hoard and hard was over 8500
and it.is with pride that J call your
attention to the fact, that all ot the
above expenses were met by the
company without asking any aid of
its many friends. „
During the year considerable inters
est.has been evolved in a scheme for
building a new truck house tor our
company, among both our members
and tViends, one of whom, Mr. Lloyd
Williams, has presented to the com
pany a very handsome drawing and
specification for a new house, but as
yet no plan or site has been definitely
settled upon. We have a small
amount of cash in the treas
ury as a building fund, and our
friends, so far as called upon, have
subscribed very liberally toward that
I'uud. g-
We have in the twelve mouths re
sponded to fourteen alarms classed as
follows: chimneys burning out, 2 ;
beyond city limit, 2 ; false alarm, 2 ;
insipient, 3 ; lamp explosion 1; fires
under good headway, 4. Total 14.
I am happy to be able to bear- rec
ord to the fact, that our department
have allowed only one building dura
ing the last year to he entirely de
stroyed, while but for our aid two
inbre would have been entirely losses.
There have been elected to mem
bership during the year, 15 ; number
on roll September 1st, 1879, 41).
Total 64. Resigned n ice September
1st, 6; ejection, 0; names on roll
September 1st, 1880, 58.
I desire to extend to the President
and company my sincere and heart
felt thanks lor the considerate and
ready assistance .they have rendered
me in the execution of the duties im
posed upon me through the bylaws of
the company in the ready and cheer
ful settlement ol dues, fines and as
sessments.
Hoping, gentlemen, that the duties
of the office of secretary have been
performed in a manner, during my
incumbancy, to meet your hearty ap
probation,
I remain l T ours, Very Sincerely,
Robt. K. Blogmfied.
The following resolutions were
adopted by the company:
Resolved, That the sincere thanks
of Pioneer Hook and Ladder Com- 1
panyare due and are hereby tendered 1
to the Indies and gentlemen who so
kindly and generously labored lor the
interests of the company in the prep
aration and presentation to the public
ot the opera of the “Doctor of Alcun-
tmn” on ihe evening ol July 1st, also
to Mr. W. II. Jones for thu free use
of the Opera House on the above oc
casion.
Resolved, That the company are
deeply grateiul to Mr. O. Lloyd Wil
liams for the handsome plan and
specifications for the construction ot
our contemplated hall and truck house
so gencrou-ly donated by him.
Resolved, That while words are
inadequate to express the depth ot
our gratitude, the memory of the no
ble and generous actions ot these our
friends, will bo enshrined in our
hearts, there to bloom as long as there
remains a Pioneer to answer to roll call
Resolved, That, a copy of these
resolutions be furnished to the Daily
Banner and the other city papers
for publication.

two hundred yards in front ol the ho

of the mountain range of^country
which makes this section of our State
so attractive. The hotel is very
pleasantly filled,leaving sufficient room

General Smith, Miss Lena Smith,
Mrs. Deloney, Miss Rosa Deloney,
Mrs. Meeker, and Mr. T. Deloney,
who, by the way has almost entirely
recovered from his recent sickness.

I find wherever I go that tho ind* 4 '

Democratic Government arp"’’thor
oughly inculcated in the hearts of the
people, and that the day of “ rings'
and combinations of men who have
heretofore handed together for per

an end. The action of the Gainesville
convention (?) is looked upon almost
generally as a most “cusumate
L.ice” as well as an attempted impo
sition upon a free people. In Toccoa
City, the Norwood banner has been
unfurled to the mountain breezes, and
i occupies a prominent position across
i one of the public thoroughfares. The
people are solid for Speer and Nor-
w(od and will give them a large ma
jority at the ensuing election. In a
conversation with a gentleman from
Rabun eounty he assured me posi
tively of a large majority for both of
these candidates in his section. That
Speer will he elected is already as
sured. That Norwood will be our
- next Governor, grows daily more
clearly petceptihle to us, and is de->

ing the Hon. Emory Speer ami =elK
joyed a conversation with him. Mr?
Speer was then on his way. to Gaines
ville to meet an appointment with Mr.
Bell, the nominee of the Gainesville
convention, anJ arrange for a j tint
discussion of the political issnes which
are at present harnessing Mr. Bell.
That Mr. Bell will receive “fair play’’
at the hands ot the “lavo-i-e” of the
old Ninth, there can he no doubt.
I was considerably surprised to
learn that a report was current in
Athens and elsewhere, to the effect
that Mr. Speer was instrumental in
procuring the appointment of W. II.
Heard as route agent on the N. E. R.
R. Such is not the fact. I have had
personal conversation with Mr.
Rhodes, the applicant for said posi
tion, whom it is claimed Mr. Sjieer
defeated by assisting Heard and from
him have a statement denying em
phatically the charges against Mr.
Speer. Pledger secured Heard’s ap

stated that Clarke county voted against
the resolutions that were adopted.
This was incorrect. The delegates
from this county voted heartily lor the
1st and 2d resolutions—endorsing
Hancock and English and declaring
tliat the Western and Atlantic rail
road ought to remain the property of
tlie State. On the 3d resolution—
declaring it to be the sense of the
convention that its nominee should
support the Hon. Joseph E Brown
as United States Senator—they vot
ed neither for nor against. They did
not vote at all on that resolution.

We were honored yesterday by a
visit from this distinguished divine,
who is in the city visiting his son,
the Rev. C. D. Campbell, the able
and popular pastor ot the Baptist
church here. The venerable preach
er has past his three-score and ten,
but is still zealous and active in mind
and body in the service of the Master
to whom he has owned sole allegiance
tor more titan half a centiuy, and we
firmly believe there is not another
in the state who does more substan
tial labor in the Great Cause. He
is, aud has been for years, the good
shepherd of the poor in the city of
his residence—Columbus, Georgia,
where be daily and houily proves his
love for God by loving and serving
his fellow-men. So arduous and
long continued have been his labors
that be has been obliged to suspend
them for a time to recuperate tired
nature’s exhausted energies, and we
sincerely hope that liis sojourn in the
up-couutry may give a long new
lease to bis most nsetnl life.

A Positive Statement.
We took a look yesterday at the
Opera House and hardly recognized
it as thu same establishment we had
known before. In truth, it is not the
same. The carpenter’s hammer ami
the painter’s brush, under the direct
ing genius of Mr. Joues, have wrought
a magical and admirable change in
the appearance of our Theatre. When
the public next enters it they will find
themselves in a freshly and delicately
painted hall, with newly laid crcoa
matting on the floor, with a seating
capacity in the parquette and i’mi j
circle of of five iiuudred. and in the
galleries of four hundred. They will ]
find that the old, ungainly, incommo
dious gallery lias been demolished
uud in its stead a very handsome and
commodious one, with a partition di
viding it, ou no side of which the
