BANNER--WATCHMAN. OFFICIAL ORGAN OF CITY AND COUNTY SUBSCRIPTION, *1 SO PER YEAR IN ADVANCE. LARGEST CIRCULATION IIIORTHEAST GEORGIA. YANOEV. CRANFORD ft GANTT PROP'RS. T. L. GANTT, Editor. THE CRY OF “STOP THIEF.’ In tin; last issue of the Gainesville Suuthro.i its editor, in order to attract public attention from the responsibility of the Conlitlon-Independent ( party in the murder of Walter Rouxtrkk, tries ft> tlx the Maine upon the editor of tho Bunner-Watchman by reciting sonic old lies that we heard were being argued by a negro politician the day Lawsiie was in Athens. He elmrges us with inci ting bud feeling between the races where- ever we go, and makes other statements that one has but to refer to our flies to find are utterly false. Among the col ored mee we have as good friends as either Mr. I-awsiik or Congressman Speer. You can go down to Oglethorpe county, or impute in Athens either, and you will find that the best class of the eolored population do not look upon us as their enemy, and in the former coun ty we have been frequently called upon by colored men for both advice and help to get them out of trouble—and when! they are worthy we have never refused their calls. But we have fought, and will continue to combat, that tioarde of un scrupulous black politicians who live by stirring up strife between the races. We arc the friend and advocate of all hon est, worthy men, lie they black or white —but will continue to throw hot shot In to the ranks of all murderers, thieves, Incendiaries, seallawags, carpet-baggers, political tricksters, ltadicals and Inde pendents. Every line that we have written ill amt the lute disturbance is en dorsed by the best men of Athens—and it is them we endeavor to please, and not such mongrel isdltieal cormorants as the editor of the Southrun. Our plat form is: This is a white man's country and a white man’s government, and we do not believe in elevating an illiterate and ignorant race over them. We do not believe in pandering to the cinvn and debased, to achieve political victory. Wo believe in conducting all campaigns on a high and honorable basis, and this can only lie done by the whites combin ing to overcome such infamous influ ences as the Independent crusade arc engendering in the tRh district. Mr. I-awsiik cannot shield his party from its just lilame in the murder of young Itoi VTiii'K. While Mr. Emory Speer did not [mint the weapon that fired the fnud shot, it cannot be denied that lie nerved and enccitraged the arm that per petrated the deed liv elevating the negro race to positions to which they are not fitted. Any one hasdutt to live ill Ath ens to see the fruits of this Independent move, in the changed attitude of the | blacks toward the whites—and this feel ing is kept alive and enconragetl by the Independents for the most selfish pur poses. But thank God the eyes of our white people are at last open, and at the polls next full they will administer a re buke that will not -o in be forgotten by Mr. Sl’KKK and his hirelings. The edi torial in the last issue of the Gainesville .S nd/ii im would cause tile bodies of such. Southern-hating abolitionists slid Itadi- cnls as Tii un.i s Stevens to turn over in their eotlius with a chuckle, were it pos sible for inanimate clay to know the do ings oi the living world. Veit, if thou hast suiil that I'm to blame For all this rumpus, which has eulne— or even part of it—all the same: Pete Lawshe, thou hast lied. eprtways* MW by UfT while' worTTng-T men of the country and give it over into the hands of ignorant negroes, who would use the power-thug gained to co erce his social equality, desires. This last object, once obtained, will rMUlt in the degration of the workingmen** chil dren and the annihilation of idffinteul- gfenoe now engaged in steering the ship of State. We sincerely hope that the white peo ple, of all classes, will ponder well the vital interests at stake, ere they decide to give to a supremely ignorant race any more power tha' promises to encourage them in demanding more than Uio South can now conveniently give them. * PROPRIETARY MEDICINES.

Ill yesterday's Constitution Con gressman Sl’KKK aji|M’arH in a column reply to Mr. Albert R. Lamar, of the Macon Telegraph ami Messenger, in which he creates a personal issue and retorts by charging that gentle man with submitting to having his fijee slapped in publie.belng dismissed from otliceon account of incompetently etc., etc. Now we reproduced this ob noxious article in the Banner-Watch- man, read it carefully, and do not place the same construction upon it as docs Mr. Si*kkk. We do not think Col. Lamaii, for an Instant, intended to insinuate tliutCongressman Sl’KKK endorsed or in any manner alietted the murder of Walter Rountree. Such a charge would have been the sublimity of nonsense. The idea that Mr. Lamar Intended to convey—and he is endorsed in it by the very best men in Athens—in this: That this murder is clearly traceable to the re sults of Independence and negro polit ical supremacy in the nth district; and Mr. Sl’EEK is only responsible from a political standpoint, as being the lead er of that organization. We have no doubt but what the murder of this young student was a source of as deep regret to him as any man in Georgia— but ut the same time that does not les son one lota the responsibility of the party he has built up in this district. That the Independent party is solely responsible for this outrage, one lias but to reside Athens for a few weeks to find out. But in his long letter of reply our Congressman fails to touch it lion or explain what we consider Mu jor Lamar’s most serious assertion— i. t., Speer's incendiary speech deliv ered before that black mob during commencement week. This was a di rect and pointed charge—and we can not see the propriety in entirely ig noring it and constructing an imagi nary one of straw for the purpose of knocking it down. In reply to Mr. Speer’s statement about the murderSr being only nineteen years old ami a polltici&u (according to the Banner- Watchman) will say that we are un der the impression that our Congress man has had too much experience with the average eolored voter not to know that It does not require age to make one of that race a leading poli tician.

The article that appeared in our paper few days ago, presents a serious prob lem which confronts the white working men of this -country. “Mechanic,” in his statements, simply expresses wliat many of our people have doubtless fre quently heard, since “freedom,” as the negroes call their emancipation. But his are public utterauces, boldly ex pressed, and we may safely conclude that the intelligent mechanics of this country are about to see the tendency of of all coalition with The negro race. “John Chinaman,” with his pigtail and cheap plate of flee, is not half so fearful to the workingmen of the Pacific slope as the ignorant negro—“jack of all tratles,” with his social equality tenden cies and his ardent love of all coalitions— is to tho white workingmen of the South, The workingmen—boys, as they are fa miliarly c»Ued—would do well to re member that any coalition on their port to givp the negro increased political pow er, only encourages the ambitions of all ranks of society to pander to the blacks for ike purpose of attaining their politi cal etuis.
