BANNER-WATCHMAN OFFICIAL ORGAN OF CITY ANDCOUNTY hubsouption, »i» pick yicaji in advance. LAEQE5T CUCBUTOI II KUTBUT BEOEflU. YANCEY. CRANFORD * OANTT PROP'RS. 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. * W * P T Us ouaMeus^ We publish below extracts from iet- tdb wvsve received in the past few days from different — ”♦* of the ninth district.

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 .-. ,.

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 forgiveness U enough to bring tews firdm the eye# of a rotten Irish potato.
