BANNER-WATCHMAN OFFICIAL ORGAN OF CITY ANDCOUNTY SUBSCRIPTION; tl SO PER YEAR IN ADVANCE. LilQEST QKC0UH0III lOEtHEiil GE0RQ1A. YANOEY. CRANFORD & GANTT PROP-RB. T. L. OANTT, Editor. MR. SPEER ACKNOWLEDGES THE TRUTH OF THE CHRISTY LETTERS. It will be remembered tbat in Mr. Speer’s bill of injunction, filed against this office, he charged that we intend ed to falsify his letters, by changing their tone. Mr. Speer knew at the time that the parties heeqjoined were incapable of such a mean act, and his only reason for making this asser tion was to give the appearance of rea son for his unparalleled act in sneak ing behind the law to prevent his po litical correspondence being seen by his constituents. But when the case was up for trial the quick eye of Capt. Barrow detected this flaw in the bill, and he at once sprung the mine under Mr. Speer’s able counsel—for the law emphatically says you cannot restrain a man from publishing a libel. So Mr. Speer’s at torney at once asked time (or consid eration and consultation with bis cli ent, which request the court granted. The consequence was the bill of injunc tion is so amended that Mr. Speer now not only acknowledges, but swears to the fact of Henry P. Christy having in his possession true copies of his let ters, and he openly retracts the charge of falsification, before a court of jus tice. This is certainly a glorious victory for the Banner-Watchman. Mr. Speer retracts his slander and publicly de clares that certain words in his first injunction were false. Tills was a mortifying confession for him—but It was simply a question of whether the Injunction would be lifted? or shall I own to the truth of those letters and be assured of the protection of the courts? He widely accepted the lat ter horn of the dilemma, well know ing that the publication of tlieChristy letters would eternally seal his doom in not only the ninth district, but the eutire south. But not even the humiliating confes sion by Mr. Speer that he himself had falsified the intention of the proprie tors of the jianner-Watchman, will shield him from public scorn. Those Christy letters will ever hang over his head like the sword of Damocles,ready to strike him down when he aspires to official prominence. I.ike the curse of the Wandering Jew, they will follow him wherever he goes. They will cling to bis back, as the Old Man of th« Island, and as queen May re- mused of Calais, when carried to his grave, Mr. Speer will find engraven in letters of lead upon his heart, “Those Christy Letters.” He to-day stands forth prominently as the only public servant in Georgia, aye in the south, who resorted to law to protect ills official record from the eyes of his constituents. We had sooner bear a thousand honorable defeats than this brand of political cowardice. We do not intend, either, that Mr. .Speer shall further evade public cen sure by claiming that we have his pri vote letters in our possession. If there lie a private letter among the collec tion owned by Mr. Christy we have never seen it, and neither do we care to see It. What we do wish to lay be fore the public is his inspiring cor respondence with republicans within and without the district, and also cer tain letters written to his colored lead' ers, either touching upon the appoint ment or removal of some officer. These letters we assert prove Mr. Speer’s political record in congress, aud the people have a right to demand that they l»e made publio. We again assert that we will give n good and solvent bond, in the sum of $10,000. or even more, if necessary, not to pub lish a single letter written by Mr. Speer, unless it refers, directiy or in directly. to the appointment or re moval of some government officer. The people are not interested in his private letters; but they do wish to know the manner in which Congressman Speer has discharged the trust they reposed in him. We cannot see how he can decline this fair proposition. H,e certainly cannot do so consistently—for is s: Mr. Speer to-day reading from the stump, and even publishing in his radical sheet at Gainesville, letters of exactly the same character as the ones we now have in our possession ? Does he wish to be placed in the cowardly at titude of having an opponent bound over to keep the peace, and then as saulting him when he knows be can not strike back? This is what Mr. Emory Speer is doing to-day. He has his own letters of conspiracy with re publicans and his negro leaders, lock' ed up by the law, while he himself is usir.; precisely the same kind of let ters to the detriment of the men he has thus enjoined. Mr. Speer charges that Henry Chris ty stole his letters. This is a question for himself and Mr. Christy to decide. We think that young man has entire ly vindicated himself of this charge, llut, Congressman Emory Speer—who was elected to office by the votes of democrats—let us inquire into the manner that you yourself obtained possession of the letters that you are now reading from the stump and pub- 1 billing in your miserable Yankee or gan at Gainesville? By your own confession you obtained the original copies from the government files at Washington. It is a well known fact tliat the government is now under a most partisan republican administra tion, and that it would be a matter Impossible for a true democrat to obtain even copies of the papers on file. But here Mr. ripeer boasts of having the original documents. He certainly has taken a high stand in the ranks of the dominant party to be aocorded this privilege! We know certain gentle men who have made desperate efforts to obtain f.om the government files certain papers written by Mr. Speer, and even after they had applied the gudden key to the lock they were de nied this prfvllegp. One of tbesq gen tlemen, too,bad pioun.te^ aetep high er than,even ,Air. Speer.. Yet this young oongreastpan openly acknowl edges that hq possesses the “Open 8e?ame” by which the secrets of the government are at his command. Don’t you well know that if Mr. Speer was not in conspiracy with the repub lican administration this privilege would be denied him? That confes sion, over his own signature, convicts him of high treason to the party that he claims to affiliate with. Now In all candor let a ask you, “which Is the greater criminal—the young man who takes possession of* book of letters *s reimbursement for the labor he has done tapon them, or the hltfh public officer who betrays the party that put him if) power, and then’ sneaks behind tbs mantle of. the law to prevent his official acts being made; known to his betrayed constituency?” It will not take a fair-minded people long to decide this question- But the Banner-Watchman was vin dicated by Mr. Empty £peer when that gentleman amended, his bill qf injunction, acknowledging thatHenry P. Christy had true copies of bis let ters, and retracting his charge of falsi- lying- Mr. Speer claims to be fighting the revenue department, and yet every officer In the district is his supporter? If you will consider for only an In stant there is no consistency in this. Did you ever stop to think that every revenue officer in the 9th dis trict, and every white republican, too, is an ardent supporter of Emory Speer? How do you like to be caught in such company? Mr. Speer Is like a sugar-coated pill He wants the honest voters of the 9th district to swallow him without know ing what nauseating stuff is hidden within. The contents of that pill are those Christy letters. Mr. Speer dares not lift tnat injunc tion. He well knows that if those let ters were made public he could not again show his hydra-political head among the honest voters, whom he has deceived with the false cry of Inde pendence. How any honest democrat can vote for a man with his political record protected by the courts, is more than we can see. Mr. Speer is the only candidate that Georgia ever knew to resort to this contemptible subterfuge to escape his own record. When you vote for Emory Speer with his written record cloaked be hind that injunction, you tbat day vote to radicalize your district. This tee are prepared to prove. Mr. Speer knows we can fix this charge on him when he consents to lift his injunction from this office. A Washington correspondent in the Gainesville Filth-Slinger endorses Emory Speer and the late coalition movement in Georgia. Tills is per fectly consistent, for Mr. Speer cannot deny but that he conspired with the Georgia republicans to capture his state for the radicals. Do you for an instant suppose that had Mr. Speer been a democrat the republican administration would have permitted him to take original letters from the files of the depart ment? He is in conspiracy with that party, and If tbat injunction is re moved wf can soon prove it. We bad rather to-day vote for an honest, outspoken republican than Emory Speer. If he will only raise that Injunction there is notan honest independent democrat in the ninth congressional district but will agree with us. That “My Dear Mat” letter is but a taste of what we have behind. Dr. Orr to-day exposes another one of Mr. Speer’s sharp tricks. The young coalitionist must have come to a sad pass when he attempts to bolster up his forlorn hope by publishing gar bled letters about the Athens post- office, that were given Pledger long before a vacancy occurred in tha office. Mr. Bpeer, In that letter of defense In his Gainesville organ, says he has In his possession original letters, taken from the flies in the department at Washington. This declaration shows that Mr. Speer starts on his campaign armed and equipped by the radical party. It is a well-known fact that no democrat could have gotten posses sion of those letters. His own words convict Mr. Emory Speer of being in conspiracy with the enemies of the South. Mr. Speer has at last succeeded in stopping our publishing his own polit ical letters to radicals; but he sees nothing wrong in reading from the stump and publishing the same class of literature in his own defense. No fair-minded man will endorse such one-sided transaction. And then again, the gentleman acknowledges that those documents were furnished him by his republican conspirators in Washing ton.

GROCERIES. t/3 Mr. Emory Speer knows we have the most damning evidence against him in our possession, and he appeals to the law to tie our hands against its publication. Again we defy him to let us publish those Christy letters; and we will further give a solvent bond, in the sum of $10,000 if necessary, not to publish a single one unless It has ref erence to the appointment of some public officer. You have been wail ing over the district about their being private letters. Now either accept our offer or publicly acknowledge that you are afraid to have the honest voters of the 9th district know the pledges you have made the radical party and your negro leaders! We again deny that we have ever in tended to publish a single one of Mr. Speer’s private letters. What we want ed to give the people is his love-sick missives to republicans and negroes, by which we can prove beyond the shad ow of a doubt that Emory Speer has been in open conspiracy with the ene mies of his country, to radicalize Geor gia, and that he not only intends to fill the ninth district, but other sec tions of the state, and even the gov ernment offices in Washington, with his negro ring-leaders. Mr. Speer knows that vie can prove this on him, and that is the reason he dares not (pee his own letters. Can you vote for a who, armed with private letters given him by the radical party, sneaks be hind the law to prevent his own com promising letters being made public? From tha Jackson Herald.

Brown’s Iron Bitters AN HONEST DEMOCRAT- Below we publish an able letter from, “J. T. M.,” the gentleman who about two weeks ago wrote an article in the Gainesville Southron in defense of Mr. Speer. He has since been con vinced of the fact that our congress man is a two-faced man, deceiving alike his white and colored support ers, and like an honorable man and good citizen sacrifices his personal preference for the good of his country. Therearo hundreds, yes, thousands of Just such honest democrats as T. M.” now in the ninth district. While they admire Mr. Speer as an or ator, they cannot consent to follow him Into the radical camp. We hav the real name of “J. T. M." in our possession, which the editor of Mr. Speer’s Gainesville organ can get if he doubts this being an authentic document. The following is the let ter: Editor Banner-Watchman:—On the 27th of August I wrote a letter to the Gainesville Southron endorsing Hon Emory Speer’s candidacy for congress, and made some allusion to the editor of the Banner-Watchman, because thought, as a Speer man, the Banner- Watchman was wagingan unjust war fare on Speer; but recent develop ments has proven very conclusively to my mind the correctness of yonr charges in the present campaign. I want the people to understand that the Banner-Watchman did not change my choice, but a reconsideration of Speer’s record has done it. I hate to give Emory up, but I can’t take an other seat in his political coach. That be lias been affiliating with the negro leaders is too true. When they say they have notes or dne bills on him for work done by them in the last election, and he won’t pay them for it, but takes special care to provide for Davis and Pledger, is a negro de coction that I can’t swallow. Speer says if he has made an error it is of the head and not the heart. Since he refused to lift that injunction we are inclined to think it an error of taste. Now with this record before us we bid him good-bye, and God hasten the day of his defeat. Now don’t in sist on publishing those letters, be cause be will deny his own name be fore the election. J. T. M. Athens, Ga., Sep. 21,1882. CARD FROM DR. ORR. Editor Banner- Watchman:—I have before me a communication addressed tothe citizens of Athens,signed Emory Speer and published in the Gaines ville Southron of September 19th. The false impression sought to be made I think deserves a passing notice. The article in question is written for the purpose of diverting the atten tion oflhe public from his own tainted record by an attempt to criminate oth ers. Together with the recommenda tions of Pledger for post-master is s certificate of good standing given by myself to Pledger before I had heard of his application forthe office of post master. The certificate is of the same character and tenor as that given by Governor Colquitt, and was given in this way: Pledger came to me and said he was going north for some pur pose and said he thought such a pa per would be of service to him. I am not at all ashamed of having given this certificate to Pledger, for at that time I would doubtless have given Mr. Speer one of like character for a similar purpose if he had applied for it. The certificate is grouped with Pledger’s endorsements for thepost-of flee for the purpose of making it appear that I had recommended Pledger for office. This I now deny, and no one knows this better than Mr. Speer. To make a false impression with in tent to deceive, is no less a falsehood than the making of a false statement. Mr. Speer, what has become of your moral train'ng? The fortunes of the gentleman must be In a desperate condition, when he is forced to resort to so miserable a subterfuge. Very Respectfully, J. C. Orr. >yi, w ails you. i cures It. . ■ ; Tha Campaign m the Ninth. We extract tue following from an Athens letter in the Macon Telegraph, written by that gifted correspondent, “Themis": , , Our congressional campaign is pro gressing magnificently. We have daily accessions to our ranks and never a de serter. I defy any man to name a single vote in this county given to Billups in the election before the last, that will go to Speer in November. Ou the other band, I can name nearly a hundred jrho voted for Speer Own who w^ll vote for Candler now. In.tbe Billups race, Speer carried this county by over 400 majority.
