T. L. GA^TT, Editor.
THE ATLANTA EVENING HERALD.
This little bantam, that started out ,«
. . .. v. w .
Mr. Speijr lias the entire radical par
ty to carry through tills time, which
is most to big a load.
We want to see a strong democratic
working club formed in every neigh-
lorhnod in the ninth district.
From every county in the moun
tains comes the most glorious news.
Candler will meet us at the Air-Line
with 3,000 majority.
We are glad to see that the present
campaign in our district is conducted
without any personalities, and we
hope it will so continue.
Col. Candler’s reply to Mr. Speer
was one of the most stinging we have
ever read. We heard It highly com
plimented ou every hsud.
We must not be too sanguine, but
from the psesent outlook Col. Candler
will sweep the district by a majority
nf between 2,000 and 3,000.
A gentleman who lias just returned
from a trip through the mountains
tells us that about nine-tenths of the
meu be met were for Candler.
Mr. Speer speaks of a still-hunt. If
reports be true, that gentleman has
done a good deal of uliU hunting him
self through the mountain counties.
Boot Duke lias Speer's 4,000 now cut
down to a “handsome majority." This
is a trig concession from our independ
ent friend, that is quite encouraging.
Mr. Speer is badly hacked, and he
can’t help showing it He knows that
his race is run, and he can’t longer
buttle under a democratic and a radi
cal banner.
Mr. Speer is still making his patent
rigid sjH-eeh around the district. He
delivered the same old wail at
Clarkesville, word for word, that he
got oil'll! Athens audGainesville.
Wonder
THE CAMPAIGN IN THE NINTH-
where all that wood-pulp
paper came from that is being gratuit
ously circulated in this district, in
the interest of Mr. Speer? It smells
rather strongly of Mi^risiii and mo
nopoly.
We honestly believe that the democ
racy will next fall redeem the ninth
district by between two and three
thousand majority. Our information
is derived (rom the best and most reli
able sources.
Twenty-live cents will secure for
you the weekly Banner-Watchman
through the campaign. Let every
democrat send us a few names. We
intend to make it mi-hot for Speer
and radicalism.
We have from reliable authority that
after Mr. Speer's speech in Clarkes
ville, in a caucus with hi»friends, he
wanted to know why it was that he
had received such a cold receptiou in
liuhershuiii county.
Speer’s friends say that lie will
change tile voters of Madison county
when they hear him. This is an insult
to tlie intelligence of the good people
of that county that will certainly be
rebuked at tile ballot-box
The democracy of Madisofl county
are organizing to c«rry otTthat earn
paign banner. McKIhannou says it
must lloat from the court-house at
Danlelsvllle. The “Free State” prom
ises Candler 600 majority.
Two or three colored men in Athens
say tliui they can lead all of their men
to the polls by the nose, These riug-
sters receive all the offices, honors
und emoluments, while the average
voter lias to iiveou promises.
A Speer man says "Our Kmory” is
most too condescendingly familiar,
lie called our Informant by his given
name at the first introduction, which
was an acknowledgment that Speer
looked upon him as an infeilor.
A Speer man was in towu the other
day I toasting that be Intends to vote
every negro on Hon. James M. Smith’s
place for his candidate. The democra
cy of Muilisou will see that they are
not imposed upon by voters from
Oglelho]>e.
Col. Bose Duke, Speer’s right bower
from Jackson, was in the city yester
day. Bose says that Col. Candler is
an altic and pure man, against whom
nothing can be said. So you see how
our standard-bearer is held even by
t lie opjMisition.
One of Col. Candler’s old soldiers
from Madison county came in to see
us. tlie oilier day, and he shed tears
while speaking of Uis love and admi
ration for liis gallant little command
er. He says Col. Candler is the best
and bravest and truest man that ever
lived.
about three months ngoaa a strong!
organised democratic payer, has ccfii - -\v-
taloly equalled the best greusj clown
in Its ground and lofty tumbling.
Every week it makes a flip, a flap and
a flirt land* of a haw plat*
form. An old granger remarked to
ua the oteprdey that he “thought the
oonsoUudbdi 1 little t critter always
changed Ita politics to suit th.' last
subscriber." Ita tone to-day is no in
dex of what it will lie to-morrow. At
present it is fearfully mixed up—sup
porting Gartrcll, Colquitt, Felton,
8peer, and smiling upon both radical
tickets. Well, mo long as the Herald
confined Itself to outside issues we sat
a silent and amused spectator at its
political antics; but since the little
robat has flirted itself into the
ninth district, and is meddling s great
deal aboutour affairs, we think it Unite
to call a halt, or at least explain to the
good people the kind of Journalistic
monstrosity that Is yelpiug for Speer
in their ears. We are hopeftil, how
ever, that before this reaches the pub
lic the Herald will take another flap
and get straight. •
Mr. Speer doubtless bought the good
will of the ambitious little rooster
when be sent it an advance copy of
his challenge to Col. Candler. True',
this was in very bad taste on the part
of Emory, but you see it acted like a
charm and gained him an organ at
the state capltoL It is isn’t a Very big'
organ, though—comparable more to a
Jewsbarp—but stlD, you see, every lit
tle is a help.
This Is the first psragraph’ln which
the little bantam flies to the defense
of its hist new sabsviber:
The Athena Banner-Watchman abu
ses Mr. Hpeer for accepting republican
support, but does not scruple to an
nounce that it la being aided in ita
warfare upon him by republicans
Now our readers well know that wc
are not ubusing Mr. Speer, unless you
call the expose of a public servant’s
official acts abuse. Where the Herald
got its last statement about our being
aided by republicans is more than we
can see. Perhaps the pop-gun got
some of its own private letters jum
bled up with .its copy of the Bauner-
Wetobuiau. The charge is so ridicu
Ions und groundless, that it is not
worth a reply.
Here is another shriek of anguish
from tliis new convert to ripeer:
A crusade of savage personal abuse
lias been inaugurated against Emory
Speer i u the ninth district. No act of
his seems to have tlie approval of the
minority organs in that section and
6|>cei lias challenged Candler to
meet him in public debate. We do
not suppose thnt Col. Candler will ac
cept, as Speer’s discussions are noth
ing but personalities and billingsgate.
But if lie crosses Candler’s path “Our
Kmory” is mighty apt to hear from
him.
We yesterday received a glowing
letter from Gwinnett. At a public
gutliering in n district in that county
a test vote was taken, that showed 94
for Candler and 4 for Speer. After
wurds the four dissenters came over
and made it solid for the Plow-Boy of
Pigeon Itoost.
Mr. Speer cannot dodge the effects
of those Christy letters by having gar
bled extracts from them printed and
give u to the public, os he iuteuds do
ing. He inis got to go the whole hog
or none. We defy him to remove that
itijunetir.ii, a ' let us publish the gen
uine documents.
In the state road lease, Judge Willis
decides tint the bond is unsuffleient
and the securities free. The case will
go,to trial on its merits in the supreme
court of Fulton county at the next
term. This is nothing but* shrewd
dodge to get rid of a useless piece of
property, after it had been crippled by
a rival line.
Mr. Speer is traitorous alike to
frfend and toe. While he has lavish
ed office and honor upon his lenders
among the colored element, he has
totally Iguoted Avery piomiae he haa
made the humble voter. He la doubt
less of the opinion that this race can
be i lead to the polls by the none, by
"Jiy Dear Mat." - '
We hear tj»a* Mr. Speer is getting
out'e pamphlet of what purport* to be
th*',Christy letters, and will setter
them broadcast over the district.
This dodge won’t amount to much so
So&. as he keepa that injunction hang-
fig pver this office. The people de
mand the true document*, that can
only -be -bad from the original copies
in this office.

We publish below extracts from iet-
tdb wvsve received in the past few
days from different — ”♦* of the ninth
district. They are au.t.entio, and any
on flic in our office:
Clarkesville, Ga4 Sept. 1,1881—Mrj
Speer’s speech here (ell flat, and lost
him many vote*. He failed to gather
more than three man,around him at
a time on the' s^efe, and teoeived
some very hard lioks from his former
supporters. In fact Habersham gave
him the “cold shoulder," and he left
sick nigh onto death with his chances
here. Please don’t put Habersham
down again on the Speer side of your

for our standard-bearer ‘to give us a

ple would only read and inform them

would be greatly enhanced. Speer is

his most insignificant doings are mag
nified into enormities of treachery
and corrupt ion. People outside of the
district have waited patiently for some
proof of all the iniquities charged
against Speer, but have been disap
pointed.
Mr. Speer has evidently posted the
Herald as to his campaign cry of per
secution. As all of tlie readers of our
paper know, we have abstained from
all personalties in this campaign. 'This
mode of warfare cornea from Mr. Speer
and liis henchman at Gainesville
From the stump that gentleman lias
indulged in the most nonsensical and
filthy flings at private gentlemen
while his Yankee renegade sends
forth a sheet each week reeking with
slime and filth. It is true that no act
f Mr. Speer’s meets with the approval
of either the democratic press or peo
ple, simply for the reason that his
official career is an abortionary at
tempt to battle in the radical rauks
under the banner of democracy. If
Mr. Speer will only lift his injunction
against this office “people outside the
district” need not be kept waiting
any longer for proof of every charge
that we have made against him. That
the evidence has not long since been
forthcoming Mr. Speer has but him
self to blame. He promised to remove
that injunction as soon as be got be
fore the people, but instead of that
will contest the publication of him po
litical letters to the bitter end in the
court*, and we learn has employed
counsel to that end.
In speaking of the Christy letters
the Atlanta Whirligig says:
Mr. Speer wUl uot be asked by the
fair-minded people of Georgia to un
fold his private, and political corres
pondence to their inspection.
Now the little Fluttenn.Ul has evi
dently been posted by Mr. Speer, as
that is the same argument his friends
are using in this district. In the
first place, we do not wish or propose
to publish a single one of “Our Emo
ry’s" private letters. What we want
to give to the public is his political
correspondence witli the leaders of
certain colored ring in this district, in
regard to matters in which his con
stituency are vitally interested. Mr.
Speer certainly cannot object to our
publishing these letters, for did he not,
during the last campaign, get posses
sion of curtain strictly private letters
belonging to Col. Beil, and in the
face of n protest from that gentleman,
repeatedly rend them from the stump?
Mr. Bell at that time was a private
citizen, while with Mr. Speer he is but
the agent of the people, who have a
right to demand an account of his of
ficial acts. There is no danger of Mr.
Christy changing one jot or tittle of
these missives, and Mr. Speer will
not so charge to his face after they
are published.
But we have already wasted too
much space on this little Atlanta med
dler, and propose hereafter to let it re
volve itself to death. We will save
our ammunition for bigger game. A
paper that changes its politics to suit
the whims of it* last new subscriber
will prove just about *a harmless in a
campaign as a pop-gun loaded with
wet paper.
Two hundred thousand copies of Mr.
Stephens’ Atlanta speech will be
printed and circulated around the
state. If Is highly spoken of by gen
tlemen who heard him. There ia no
false ring in his appeal for democratic
unity. ' *
The Gainesville Fillh-Slinger does
not deny that Mr. Speer writes the,
editorials for that sheet. This mode
of self-laudation is an old dodge on thg
part of “Our Emory" that he wore to a
frazzle while couUmnog the Southern
Watchman. t .-. ,. L

Cleveland, White Co., Aug. 27.—Put
down little White as solid for Candler
and democracy. You can’t find i
Speer man with a magnifying glass
But in all seriousness, you may couut
on White with a certainty for 300 ma
jority, and probably more. I learn
that Jndge Logan E. Bleckley says the
mountain counties will give Candler
2,500 majority—and he knows how to
feet the public pulse. He is putting
in some good licks for the nominee.
Gainesville, Ga., Sept. 1.—From
present appearances Hall will give
Candler 1,200 majority. If ail the
people iu the district knew this gen
tleman as we do his majority would
be unprecedented. News from every
mountaiu county is indeed encourag
ing. Keep down your big Speer ma
jorities below and count on us to'meet
you at tlie Air-Line with 3,500. The
Colonel has now so arranged his busi
ness as to take the stump.. ,
Madison, Morgan oOunty, Aug’. 28.'
Think we can carry this county for
Candler. Count on us to cut down
Speer’s majority to two figures, any
way. • i ' ’ - • r ■
Dauielsville, Ga., SepL 1.—We . are
anxiously looking for Col. Candler to
make us a speech Wednesday. Onr
people want to meet him. I learn
that Speer will orate here Monday.
He won't find two dozen white sup
porters In the county.
Jefferson, Ga., Aug. 30.—“Our Emo
ry’’ i- left with a hopeless minority
here, and “there are few so poor as
to do him reverence." Jackson w<ll
roll up between 400 and 700 majority
for Candler. v .
Blairsville, Union county, Aug. 26.
—I have Just returned from a trip
through several adjacent oou&ties, ana
find Candler’s nomination well re-
.oeived. I have noa doubts of Mr.
Speer carrying a single mountain
county. It is reported thatDuggai
will certainly run as a republican can
didate (tor congress, bat he WUl get no
encouragement from democrat. The
name and record of Allen Candler is
enough to carry victory.
Judge Twiggs, of Auguste, bos for
mally announced himself as an inde
pendent candidate for congress in the
eighth district.
In one neighborhood in this county
there are seven men who voted for
Speer in tlie last election, but six of
the seven are known to be Candler
men now, and tho other is uncertain
This is a fair estimate of the county,
we think.—DanicUriUe yeoman.
We learn that Mr. Speer is working
for the support of the Greenbackers iu
the district. We do not see bow
member of that party can consistently
support him, as it is a well known
fact that Mr. Speer is affiliating with
the stalwart republican administra
tion, and this party is a bitter oppo
nent to au inflated currency.
An old granger from McNutt re
marked the other'day that be couldn't
vote again for Emory; that when he
hired a hand aud found him working
for some neighbor that he didn’t like,
to the neglect of his own business, he
always discharged him as soon as
possible. He don’t relish Mr. Speer’s
affiliation with thhradicals.
Mr. Speer, in his speeches, always
touches upon some trivial charge, that
he makes the burden of his argument,
to the total neglect of the more serious
and important arraignments against
him. He has never as yet touched
upon that injunction, as we have
beard of, and his letters of sweet prom
ise to hi* republican friends, i
Kir. Emory Speer once referred to
Howard Williams, one of the mana
ging editors of the Atlanta Herald, as
“the Xdoor-keeper of the tramp's gal
lery in Washingtonetc. Howard
Is now tengaged in polishing Up "Our
Emory's" dirty boots, fsuch Christian
