SOKE PLAIN WORDS TO QIM COLOREO
PEOPLE.
The approaching municipal elec
tion will have a great deal to do
with ahaping the future of,the col
ored race in Athene. The business
men and a large number of ourrcp-j
resentative citizens have put in thd
field a ticket for Mayor and Aider-
men, composed of gentlemen 'thor
oughly identified with the interest
of the place, and whose election
they believe will best promote the
prosperity and welfare of the city.
There is no politics in the pending
e'ection, but simply an issue as to
W to shall rule Athens lor the next
twelve months. As is an acknowl
edged fact, the Citizens’ Ticket rep
resents the business interests and
the property ef Athens, but a ma
jority of the candidates are them
selves poor men. Upon the colored
vote, in a large measure, will the
success of either side hinge, and
hence this election will* decide
whether these people are ready and
willing to allign themselves with
the representative element of whites,
and by so doing show to the world
that they are ready and willing to
unite in the common interest cf our
city, or will they antagonize the
very men who support them, and
thus continue that bitterness and
strife between the two races that
always has and ever will work to
the injury of the colored man so
long as it is waged? We would ask
these people what can they gain by
fighting such an element? They
build up an antagonism that will re
tard their progress, for it is unnat
ural to expect a man to help an
other who is putting every stum
bling block possible in his way. 1:
the colored people of Athens ever
expect to be advanced it must be
through the aid of the very men
who are backing this Citizens’
Ticket. They have the power to
carry their ends, and they will use
it. Now, by going to work and as
sisting them to triumph by a de
cided majority, this race can
secure friends and allies that will be
worth a great deal to them. Sup
pose a color'd congregation wants
to build a'church; a fire company to
buy a new machine, or their people
want to raise money for any other
good cause, where will they start
their subscription list and from what
source will the money come? From
the very gentlemen who have put
the Citizens’ Tickotin the field,
Let them start their subscription
among the opposition to this ticket,
and see if they will not return
empty-handed. Does it not, then
seem foolish and suicidal to fight
and antagonize the very element
upon which you depend for help?
Is it not better to show these gen
tleraen, by voting with them
on the day of election, that you ap
predate their kindness, and are wil
ling to return it when you can do so
wunoat sacrificing either your prin
ciple or your party? By that move
you do a great deal to restore confi
dence and good feeling between the
two races, and when you again ap<
peal to your white friends for assis
tance, you can do so with head erect
and know that it will be cheerfully
granted. We believe that a large
majority of our colored people will
vote the Citizens’ Ticket, and it will
be so found on the day of election
There never was more harmony and
good feeling existing between the
two races in Athens than at this
time, and what will he to the inter
est of the business men can but re.
dound to the prosperity of every per
son in their employ. We say to our
colored voters, do not be lead of! by
the wild ravings of interested men,
who only appeal to prejudice to se
cure your vote! Stick by those
who befriend you and give you
work, and they will sec that you
do not sufler.
THE MARIETTA AND NORTH GEORGIA RAIL
ROAD GRAB.
and passed 1 it. The managers of
this bill displayed great shrewdness
in all their manoeuvres. They final
ly succeeded in getting it through
the house, apparently without much
trouble. It would be interesting to
know what arguments were used to
secure such a remarkable change in
the sentiment of the house with re
gard to the bill between the two
occasions when it was before that
body.
THE RAILROAO COMMISSION HILL.
His Lora Was Her Gain.
_‘*WeU madam'” said a (sshtonabl
physician to a wealthy lady patient, “If
you don’t like my prescriptions, perhaps
you had better try Parker’s Tonic, or
some other quack stuff.” “ You don’t
mean tt Doctor,” she answered, “bnt
your advice may bo good for all that,
sometimes what you call ‘quack stuff’,
is the best and most scientific medicine,
after all.” She got a bottle of Parker’s
Tonic and it eured her of neuralgia
aris'.ig from disordered stomach and
nerves. She told her friends, and now
they all keep a doctor at home in the
form of Parker’s Tonic.
The action of the House of Repre
sentatives of the Georgia legislature
in defeating the Senate’s amend
ment to the Railroad Commission
bill, is the most serious thrust at the
development of our state ever made,
and it is equivalent to clogging the
wheels of progress. It sets Georgia
back at least a decade, even in the
event ot the next legislature modi
fying the law, for capital will a
once be diverted to other states with
more liberal laws, and it will be
hard work to again direct it toward
our borders. It is needless to agi
tate the building of any new rail
roads in Georgia, unless the people
can furnish the money to both grade
and equip them. Atlanta is the
only city benefited by the Commis
sion, as it has all the railroads she
wants, and can now grow and thrive
on the blight that will fall upon .he
other sections. The people now
look to Gov. McDaniel for the aid
that these representatives have re
fused them. Let this officer appoint
liberal, fair-minded men upon the
Commission, who will look as much
the interest of the railroads as
their own popularity. By so doing
he can, in a measure, overbalance
the arbitrary rulings of this body,
and help to restore that confidence
in our state so vitally necessary to
its development through the medi
um of railroads. It is a waste of time
and space for Athens to talk about
the O-orgia Midland or any other
road, and our citizens must look in
another direction for its prosperity.
The Railroad Commission will
doubtless be made the issue in the
next general election in Georgia,
and we feel r.o doubt hut that the
people will administer a withering
rebuke to those unfaithful public
servants who gave .the progress of
the state such a fatal stab.

The Savannah News says: The
passage by the House of the
resolution to authorize a compro
mise of the claims of the State
against the Marietta anil North
Gehrgia railroad, as amended by
the Senate, was rather unexpected
by those who were opposed to the
resolution in its amended shape.
The Morning News took occasion
to express ita opposition to such a
settlement as the road wanted, and
as it succeeded in getting. The
resolutions that passed both Houses
virtually gives the road about Aioo,-
coo of the people’s money, for
k which they receive no considera-
" iSaii art* nhout the facts:
' tion. These are about the facts:
Some time ago a syndicate bought
the road, which was then in opera
tion to Canton, Ga, and completed
!», with convict labor contributed
oy the State, to Ellijay. With the
same labor the road was graded
from tbe latter place to the North
Carolina line, a distance of 28 miles.
To complete the railroad, which is
n narrow gauge, it will cost 856,00a
The syndicate who bought the
read on speculation and who have
issued $600,000 worth of bonds
upon it, asked the people of Geor
gia to give them $66,000 and inter-
est, $13,000 of the capital stock,
$7,000 of first mortgage bonds and
$5,000 in second mortgage bonds—
nearly $100,000 in all—and their
representatives granted the request.
They certainly had no legal nor
equitable right to it. The money
will only go to increase their al
ready handsome profits.
This scheme for despoiling the
people was in the first instance
- squelched by the house committee.
Indeed a favorable report, even
upon a bill simply granting the Ms- k*’
riettaand North Georgia'railroad
further time to>pay its indebtedness
to the state, was only secured after a
g.od deal of hard work.'. In. this
i«^{emasculated shape it passed the.
house. The senate, however, rein
