THE PERSECUTION WAIL
It la a well-known fact that the
Gainesville 8ou th ron is butthe mouth-
pleeeof Mr. Emory Speer, and there
Is no doubt hut a large majority of its
editorials are from the pen of our con
gressman. One has but to peruse the
columns of that sheet to discover that
the Independent leader is making a
desperate effort to get up material upon
which he can make the race on a pei
secutlon issue. We first And tail
walling out because the Macon Tel
egraph laid at his door the insolent
bearing of the negroes niter the Roun
tree Murder. Next he insults the edt
tors of the Atlanta Constitution, and
when Col. E. P. Howell resents the
tame by openly publishing Mr. Speer
as a blackguard and a liar, lie sends 111
through the Southron another hriel
to the >good people of the district.
Again, when the Banner-Watchman
accused Mr. Spekk of being responsi
ble for our negro office-holders, he
yelled out “ slander" at the top of his
voice, and set his friends to writing
letters over the district denying the
fact; but when those Christy letters
came out Mr. Speer saw that we had
him by the horns, and so had to throw
himself at the feet or .fudge Erwin
for protection from his own missives.
Not satisfied with this, lie had pre
self-respect. We predict that next I indeed
fail Mr. Speer will be found leading a alt 0111
forlorn hope of negroes, oomqaauded j which
by a very few personal friends. Mr.
Speer himself lias drawn the race
issue in our district, and we cheerfully
ceept tiie gauntlet. By bla acta be
has said: “I consider the black man
nore deserving of office Ilian the white
race;’’ and now the Caucasian will
contest,the matter at the polls. When
Mr. Speer fulfills his promise and re
moves that injunction from this office,

from Kabun county, 10 strengthen his
plea of persecution, and then hunts
up a Yankee newspaper correspon
dent to interview him on the subject.
His last dodge is to lay the removal of
his father. Dr. Hpf.er, from his Pro
fessorship in the State University, on
the Billups and Conns, for politics
purposes. Wo have never written a
line about, or made a charge against
Mr. Speer but what we are prepared
to prove if he will only remove that
injunction. We charge him with se
cretly affiliating with the radical party,
and lie is solely responsible for our
colored office-holders. He is only
using the name of democracy to build
up the republican party in our sec
tion. But Mr. Speer i- the last man
whoshouldcry persecution. Only a
few weeks ago did not bis im|x>rted
Yankee editor at t iainesville vent an
entire column of bis lilthy abuse
against .fudge A. S. Kitwis, simply
I>ccausc thin gentleman's name bail
licen pro|M»sed in connection with con
gressional honors'.’ An* not the most
honorable an«l bcsl men in our midst
made the recipients of a baptism of
tilth when llieir views > lasli with the
aspirations of Kmory Speer? While
shirking tiehind the plea of |iersecu-
tion, lie has his creature ejecting slan
ders anil slurs at men the latchet of
whose sliois he is not worthy to un
loose. After the lilthy onslaught upon
Judge Krwin iu the (Iainesville
Southron, It was discovered that the
article was likely to prove a boome
rang, and so in the next issue we see
a cringing paiagrnpli apologizing for
the same, stating that when theuttack
was mode it was thought the Judge
would be a candidate. In the name
of decency, cannot an honorable gen
tleman offer in opposition to Emory
Speer without living the recipient of
such abuse and slander? Has Mr.
Speer a lease oil the office and Is it
crime to oppose him ? Is there no
uame and no character too pure and
sacred for the leprous pen of Mr.
Speer’s imported Yankee Zulu edi
tor ? Does lie think the people of the
ninth district are so far lost to princi
ple as to stand idly by and hear ope of
the South’s bravest defenders and
purest citizens abused and villifled by
a man who Is a natural enemy to our
section, and who only came among us
for the loaves and Ilshcs of govern
ment patronage? We believe not.
Our people know Alf.o Erwin to be
one of tne noblest men that treads the
earth, anil they can but feel a supreme
and lasting contempt for any candi
date who attempts to strengthen his
own claims by bringing out a Yankee
editor to cast his abusive epithets at
his head. The editor of the Gaines
ville Southron cannot hurt Judge Er
win ; hut we are quite certnin that
such villainous attacks will very se
riously injure the claims of his mas
ter, Mr. Kmory Spbek, and conclu
sively show to the people that the cry
of persecution should come from the
other side.

most stalwart ring ot the republican

It is indeed a mortifying fact 1o
know that the property-owners, the
intelligence and the real worth of the
ninth district is governed by our most
degenerate element; yet such is the
case. We do not mean in this'charge
to include the few worthy white men
whoa re still acting witlt the* indepen
dent party, through admiration or
personal regard for Mr. Kmory
Speer; hut we refer to our colored
race and a certain class of the white
population but iittle. if any, in ad
vance of them in mental culture or
social habits. Mr. Spkkr has gathered
to his fold this motley hnarde of un
scrupulous nnd unreliable voters, offi
cered them with a few leaders of hite'-
ilgence who are attached to him. and
thus presentsn strong front to the true
worth of the di-triet. The evils of the
political supremacy of t)ii< element
have already been felt in our district,
and more es|iei'ially In the city of Ath
ens. We find that Mr. Spker’8 suc
cess has nerved the hands of his fol
lowers for far greater accomplishments
than the election of a congressman,
and every contest witnesses new dep
redations, We see the open practice
of buying and selling votes, and the
respectable element actually driven
away from the polls by the disgrace
ful conduct of these barbarians. A
mail to secure office in Athens has to
buy bis way into power, and then
promise his allegiance to the worst
element of our society. The best class
of our population has no chance what
ever, for Uiey find their timid fight in
behalf orjustice and decency buried
beneath a mountain of black ballots.
Our people owe this wretched state of
affairs to the ambitious candidacy of
Mr. Speer, for lie it was who filled
the opening lett vacant by the defeat*
ed republican party and again organ
ized the blacks. While Athens was
the first point to renp the whirlwind
of our prostituted politics, it is no
guarantee that the evil will remain
within our narrow limits. Re-elect
our Independent congressman, and
before another year has passed you
will see a state of affairs in the ninth
district before which the radical ad
ministration in Georgia will shine
forth like a luminous star of bright
ness. In our prostituted elections and
negro office-holders you see but a fore
taste of what la in store for tbo entire
district. Mr. Speer knows that his
lease on office is lengthened by the
power of this element, and he will
leave no stone unturned to corrupt our
politics and swell his army of inde
pendents. He dare not trust his
claims in the hands of bis Intelligent
cocatltuency. His whole campaign
to fonght from the filthiest stand
point, to sii>t the taste of his black
supporters. Bnt we believe the politi
cal doom of this man is fast drawing
to a close. The honest, thinking peo

Heretofore Mr. Speer has acted with
in the pale of democracy, and sympa

But this to no time for dlssention

nerable record at last in our grasp, we
can show him up in Buch an odious
light that a true-born southern white
man will feel ashamed to be numbered
among his supporters. We can prove
that lie is building up his power by
elevating the negro race over the
whites, and that he is secretly con-
