WEEKLY BANNER-WATCHMAN TUESDAY JULY t886.
BROTHER "JOE,"(STAND UP!
Congressman lioese's slanderers will
be rebuked by the good people of old
Morgan, \rlio know that her nub:e sou is
incapable of a wrong act.—Madisonian.
Who ius been slandering Mr.
Reese? W’Jiat has been said? We
dety the editor of the Madisonian
to report one word uttered either \
by Capt. Carlton or his lriends but
what is known to be the truth, and
can be so proven if necessary. The
truth is not slander. The good peo
ple of old Morgan will do some re
buking, if we mistake not the spirit
of the county, but it will be against
ar. unworthy son who rewarded
strangers over his own people, and
also against a newspaper, claiming
support from fl.e people, that is no:
lilting its voice in defense of its own
county when its power is curtailed
and its lights threatened by Mr.
Reese and liis friends. Stop that
foolish cry of slander, Mr. lilack-
hurn, and tel) us how you stand on
that re-apportionment proposition?
Is your paper published ill the inter
est ol Mr. Retst, or in the interest
oi Morgan county? You can't lead
any intelligent man ctl" on any false
trad hy yelling •■slander!" No one
has slandered Scab. Kctse, and you
know it. lint lucre are being the
most inlamous lies circulated on
The Athens Banner and Dr. Carlton
may continue to slander the good people
of I'litnam who favored Mr. Iteese, but
this little game will not convince the
democrats of the Eighth district that
some mysterious understanding is not
the cause of Carlton again oeing in the
field.—Madisonian.
We defy the Madisonian to point
to one word of slanJer from either
the Banner-Watchman or Capt.
Carbon against "the good people of
Putnam.” On the other hand, the
honest voters of Putnam have been
and ate still for Carlton, and through
the shrewd machinations of Mr.
Reese and his lriends, they were
tricked out oi a fair hearing and
Capt. Carlton out of the delegation.
The repeated insinuations in the
Madisonian that a trade has been
made between Carlton and Nisbet
is a slander; but Capt. Carlton will
Batten it when he speaks next Sat
urday in Madison and Rutledge
worse than he did “Our Joe” when
there last.

The congressional convention meets
iu .illo il!, July CU.Ii, unil lire piocceil-
iug- promise lu be very mtei eating—
probably more so limn any roll veil l OKI
ol recent yearn. The change ol the vot
ing strength of the counties will be ably
i.iseii-sed by leaning politicians and the
derision reached by tlie convention is
■seiy to have a must important bearing
upon tin: political fiitme of the Mill dis
trict. Toe present arrangement will
not be accepted by ilic larger counties,
an 1 the smaller ones are unwilling to
go back to rlie Old bas ; s. A lively ses
sion is ilieielorr sore to lie held as a re
sult of tins difference of opinion.
We clip the above lrom the
Washington Chronicle, edited by
C. E. Smith, the revenue man, and
who is known to be a
strong sup
porter of and leader for Seaborn
Reese. Theieforc, it is lair to pre
sume that Smith speaks the senti
ments of his friend. This para
graph, taken in connection with
the action of of our congressman's
friends at the committee meeting,
and also M-. II. T. Lewis’ speech at
(ireeneshoro, should convince any
man with a grain of sense that
Mr. Reese is the avowed enemy of
the smaller counties, and though
liis delegates and friends will stran
gle their rights, and place the over
whelming democratic majority in
Morgan, Oconee, Clarke, Hart,
Franklin and Elbeit at the mercy
and dictation of the lower belt of
counties, where the republican vote
overwhelmingly predominates.. But
this man Smith goes even further
than his associates. The committee
did give the smaller counties a frac
tional increase, but still kept all
power in the large counties. The
Chronicle editor says that this little
concession will he taken back
from the smaller counties. But
Smith has surpassed his authority
when he asserts that “the present
arrangement will not he accepted
hy the larger counties.” Oglethorpe
r.ot only accepts, but endorses
Congressman Iteese remains at his post
of duty attending to the interest of his
people, while liis enemies are trying to
defeat him. The peop e will endorse
such devotion to duty.—Madisonian.
Scab. Reese remains at his “post
of duty” because he dare not meet
Henry Carlton on the stump. We
would he delighted to see Ser.horn
smoked out of Washington for
little while, that the people might
compare the two men. As to that
devotion to duty, an examination of
the record of congress will show
that Mr. Reese has lost enough time
tiom liis seat to have made a half-
dozen campaigns. Oh, Seab. is
overflowing with “duty." It was
his duty to have answered some of
those important business letters he
received, but he didn’t. We strong
ly su-pect that fear to face Carlton
on the stump has far more to do
with our congressman’s little spurt
of “duty” than anything else.
I>r. Carlton retired in favor of Dr. Nis-
bet. Now, how is it that l)r. Nisbet is
out of the race anil Car.ton again iu?—
Madisonian.
Very easily explained, Mr. Black
burn. Capt. Carlton knew that
Col. Nisbet was thrown out
decoy duck by Reese’s lriends, to
rob him of the vote of Pulnain. He
withdrew from the race so as to ex
pose the trickery. Col. Nisbet,
on discovering that he was made a
victim to promote Reese’s ends,
withdrew from the race rather than
receive the rebuke such conduct
merited. Capt. Carlton is now
fully equipped with evidence of ring
work and treachery, and will visit
you next Saturday and tell the good
people of old Morgan all about it,
as also some other facts that will be
very edifying to an intelligent and
patriotic people. Keep quiet, Mr.
Blackburn, and all will be satisfac
torily explained.
A BRAVE spirit.
The determined and gallant front
presented by the Bacon men at
Martin, Fianklin county, when, on
the heels of the gloomy news of
last Saturday, they met and organ
ized a club ot i.is, is an example
that should be emulated by every
county in the state. Such a gallant
resistance will give every true inan
in Georgia, it matters not whether
he be lor Garden or for Bacon, a re
spect front a community that has
the fearless courage to -so manfully
stand hy its cause and orguuize a
formidable resistance while the tri
umphant shouts of the enemy are
ringing in their eats. Thtee hearty
cheers lor the Bacon club of Mar
tin! say we, and may the Banner-
Watchman ever have on its side
such gallant, true and devoted ad
herents! We glory in such grit, ai d
had .a thousaud times rather be de-
eat cd and receive the votes of such
men, than be elected Governor of
Georgia by the ballots of cowardly
deserters, who left their friends and
their party when they thought
them in the minority. Gallant men
of Martin! We shall from this day
on eagerly watch your career, and
indeed w> 1 we think thrice blessed
tuc candidate who has such btave,
true and devoted followers on his
side! Whether we triumph in this
tight or not, the men of the little
town ot Martin, in Franklin county,
will ever be to a Bicon man syn
onymous of Fidelity, Devulion and
Courage.
A LAST APPEAL.
What would Athens want to
form a ring against Oglethorpe for?
The idea is ridiculous.
To-day at noon Capt. Carlt on
speaks in Madison, and will address
the people ot Rutledge at night.
Capt. Carlton lias but tell days iu
which to bury Reese, fie will do it,
however, mid have several hours to
spare.
Capt. Carlton'smiron through the 8th
district is illumined by freedom from
die rule of politicians. He is battling
for liie rights of the |ieople, and they
will rally around liis standard.
Ill the past two days Capt. Carlton
has captured Elbert, and has now
marched into Oglethorpe—the land
of the freedom and the home of justice.
Just mark our prediction: Hu will sweep
the county likea tidal wave.
The glad tidings come from ail over
tlie district that the people have risen in
rebellion against Mr. Reese and his
friends, and that “Capt. Carlton'’ is the
watchword from Morgan to Hart.
Hon. H. 11. Carlton will speak this
morning at Lexington, and to-night at
Her people see the fairness of the p ra " ' or ' 1 - If the politicians don’t keep
him from getting the ear of Oglethorpe,
division, and again Oglethorpe, has
been “left out in the cold” by that
ring arrangement. Her natural al
liance is with the smaller counties,
foi our people are hound togethei
hy the tenderest ties of l> etdship
and association. Ogled orpe is in
the same senatorial disiu^i with
the smaller counties, and if one of
our cit’zens wanted to represent his
district in congress,the first canvass
would be through one ot those up
per counties. Every citizen that
we have seen from that county er,-
cloises the new apportionment pio-
position. But afier the threats from
the friends and orga .s ol Reese,
how can any good citizen get his
consent to vote for a man who so
openly threatens to rob his countv
of its just representation? Suc/i a
voter would bean enemy to lorn-
sell and to liis people! Smith’s edi
torial exposes a deep plot not only
to override all justice, but to crush
out the power of the upper coun
ties. As is a well known fact, this
district, when formed, was geiry-
mandered in the intriest ol a
Ct l tain rir.g ol politicians, and noiv
that they see their game about be
ing blocked, arc badly lrightened.
The seven smaller counties and
Oglethorpe are going to send anti-
Reese and anti-Ring delegates, ami
the district wi.l then be gerryman
tiered in the interest of the peuple.
We owe Smith a vote of thanks fo
so clearly exposing that little game
in plenty of time for the smallei
counties to save themselves from
the m ichinations of their ei emies
l>r. Carlton's re-annnncemnnt is sus
ceptible of but one anaysis. lie is anx
ious for the olllce to seek him.—Madi
sonian.
You are right, brother Blackburn.
Capt. Carlton is exceedingly anx
ious for the office to seek him; but
he will not try to seek the offict
through trickery. And, by the
way, the Madisonian’s silence or
that congressional re-apportion
ment proposition is susceptible of
but one analysis: The election of
Seab. Reese to congress “is para
mount to the political strength and
nterests of Morgan county.
You can never make a sensible
man from Oglethorpe believe that
to help Athens will injure his coun
ty. We are too close kin for that.
You can t assist one people without
benefiting the other. We ate of
one family, as it wetc.
have no fear for the result, when the
nonest yeomanry heir hitn. Capt.
Carlton only asks a fair allowing, boys
—nothing more—and we know that our
old Oglethorpe friends will give it lain .
A Reese man was heard to remark,
yesterday, that “the rain insured the elec
tion of Reese and defeated Carlton, for he
cannot make a campaign through it.” For
over four long years Capt. Carlton made
i campaign through worse weather than
tl.is—when it rained lead and iron, and
not for an instant did he waver. This is
blit a spring shower to what this gallant
defender of liis people and their rights
lias go ne through with.
. AITKALINU TO PREJUDICE.
All effort is being made in Ogle
thorpe county to prejudice the vot
ers against Capt. Carlton by cturg
ing that he is -athens’ candidate lor
congress. In the first place Capt.
Carlton is not the candidate of Ath
ens, and he did not enter the race
at the request of hie friends iu this
city. On the other hand he mpst
reluctantly entered the contest at
the earnest solicitation of a large
and respectable following, alter ap
peals had been made in vain to ev
ery other section of the district to
furnish the people an opposing
candidate to Mr. Reese to vote for.
And to show Capt. Carlton’s sin
cerity, he withdrew from the con
test as toon as Col. Nisbet
entered the race, to gal
lantly take up the gauntlet again
when that gentleman hiiuseif re
tired. Capt. Carlton has euteieJ
the race for ^congress in order to
give the people a chance to defeat
a canspiracy of politicians, and also
to permit the highly respectable
following opposed to the re elec
tion of Mr. Reese for a fourth term,
an opportunity to express their pre
ference. But even admitting that
Capt. Carlton is Athens' 1 candidate,
lor the sake of argument, is that
any great reason why Oglethorpe
county should oppose Dim? Ate
nut the tier and convictions that
bind the people of Clarke and
Oglethorpe closer and tenderer than
the relations between Hancock and
Oglethorpe? Are not the two
counties daily brought face to face,
their people are intermarrying, and
the strongest bonds ol love and
friendship torined between them?
Are not our interests identical, and
we arc one and the same people?
Has Athens ever tailed to sustain f
man from Oglethorpe for any posi
tion he' wanted? Then why this
foolish cry about “Athens’ candi
date?" What connection ot tela-
lion is there between Hancock and
Oglethorpe? The people of the two
sections never meet or mingle, and
there is no interest or association in
common with them. Then why
should you refuse a friend and
neighbor that which you have al
ready thrice accorded a stranger?
This "Athens” cry may do in some
counties, but it won’t take in Ogle
thorpe It is like trying to preju
dice one brother against another.
Athens will back Oglethorpe in any
aspiration or enterprise that she
In oath county in the 8th district
Congressman Reese has a chosen band
of politicians and tricksters, who have
agreed to turn their county over to him.
Cap:. Carlton is now exposing and break
ing up this little game.
It is a pity that Seab. Iteese had to
wait until he had an opponent in the
field before before lie could manifest his
“devotion to duty.” The right time
would have been when he was refusing
to answer the thousands of important
letters addressed to him by his constit
uents.
We have information iu our possession
of a syndicate of lawyers and politicians
being formed by which Oglethorpe is to
be ignored in the naming of future con
gressinen, and her power in the conven
lion strangled. Mr. Reese js at the head
of the scheme. Let the |>eople combine
and form their own ring.
Capt. Carlton only asks the fair-mind
ed people of Oglethorpe‘county to delay
action on the congressional issue until
lie can get before the voters and make
bis statement. He wants to stump every
district in tlie county, and meet the peo
ple face to face. We know that the good
people will not refuse this request.
Seals Reese dares not face Henry Carl
ton on the stump, and both Reese and his
friends knew it. He has lost enough time
from his post of duty to have made a
half dozen campaigns: but as soon as he
finds a foeman that he dare not face on
the stump, he makes his “attending to
duty” furnish an excuse. Oh, give us
a rest, Scab.!
. Capt. Carlton is not the candidate <
Athens, and did not enter the congret
sional race until every other section of
the district had been appealed to in vain
for an opposing candidate to Mr. Reese.
To show his faith, as soon as Col. Nisbet
announced he withdrew, to re-enter
when the Colonel came down. Capt.
Carlton simply wants to give the people
opposing Mr. Reese some one else to
vote for.
Every argum'nt has been ad
vanced in favor of the election of
Major A. O. Bacon as governor o
Georgia that seems to us necessary
to convince intelligent, rational men.
Nothing more can or need be said.
For the past few 'days the press
have been comparatively quiet in
regard to the governor’s race, which
we think best, as we are just now
on the eve ot the great conflict that
will decide this issue, and the voters
should be given time to calmly di-
jje-t the arguments offered on both
sides, Without any further attempts
made to inflame their minds. Gen.
Gordon now has the advantage over
hit opponent in the contest, but
• 'ere is no assurance that he will
k.-cp it. Political cowardice and
desertions are the fab greater dan
gets now threatening Major Bacon
than the increased number of dele
gates secured by Gen. Gordon.
There are plenty of counties left yet
to elect Bacon, and they are his
strongholds, too. Gen. Gordon has
gone to the end of his tether, and
whatever county he gets after this
will he a clear gain. It is a notice
able fact that the counties that acted
since the Satuiday’s Waterloo are
all lor Bacon. If his friends will
now stand Arm and unshaken, his
chances arc to-day equally as good
as those of Gen. Gordon. That
their enemies may be stampeded by
their show ot stiength is on what
the Gordon leaders now mostly
ie!y. Any man who will read the
Constitution will see this. So we
say to our Bacon friends in the va
rious counties that have not as yet
acted: Keep firm—do not quail or
yield an inch—stand by your prinj
ciples and your candidate, and you
may yet wrest victory from what
may now appear to the timid-
hearted a defeat. Stand firmly by
your colors, and do not go over to
the enemy that you may possibly
enjoy the privilege of hurrahing
with the victorious tide. To desert
your candidate now would make
you an object of contempt to your
own side,'and even the men with
whom you united will have no re
spect for you. There is no. excuse
now for eitiier a Bacon or a Gordon
voter to change. You have heard
every argument, and you cannot
disguise your treacherous desertion
by any good reason whatever. We
heard ot one man who flopped over
from Bacon to Gordon becanse he
did not like the way a county ex
ecutive committee acted. If this
party supported Major Bacon be-
causa he thought he would make
the best governor, what effect would
the conduct of men whom perhaps
he had never seen have on his ad
ministration? No; we would have
had lar more respect for that de
serter had he openly announced that
he wanted to get on the big side, as
he thought, instead of offering such
a flimsy and nonsensical excuse.
But next Tuesday will settle all,
and we are glad of it. fhis has
been a most hitter and unfortunate
campaign, and we fear that our
s ate and party will for a long time
feel the ellecis of it. Bitterness
ha- bten engendered and communi
ties divided, when before all was
peace and harmony.' There has
been same talk about an indepen
dent candidate being brought into
the race in the event that Gen. Gor
don receives the nomination. Such
threats are hut idle vaporings. If
John B.Gordon is nominated bj
the democratic party of Georgia, it
is the duty of every good man to
suppi rt him, and the Banner-
Watchman will then battle just as
earnestly tor his election as we
have advocated,the cause of Major
Bacon. We shall naturally feel dis
appointed at defeat; but this would
not have one feather’s weight in
eflectiiig our loyalty to our party.
It he receives the nomination, Gen.
Gordon will defeat any indepen
dent pitted against him by the
largest majority ever known in
Georgia. But we are not ready to
concede his nomination, for we be-
The people are for Carlton, and
they arc going to speak out, too.
A Hone Stone to Death By Beei.
“Last Saturday.” says the Balti-
.tnore Sun, “while John Humbird
and his son, Jacob B., of. Cumber
land, contractors on the Piedmont

again float to the surface on what
they consider the Reese tide are
going to be stranded high and dry.
Capt. Carlton has a good and sufficient
reason for everything that he does, and
if the politicians will not choke him off
before lie can get before the people all
will be satisfactorily explained.
The most encouraging news con
tinues to reach us from Morgan
county. Capt. Carlton has regain
ed his strength, and recruits are ad
ded daily to his ranks.
A letter received yesterday from
Ira Vanduzer, ot Hart, says his
county will certainly go for Carlton
next Tuesday. The Sun will sus
tain Mr. Vanduzer’s resolution, and
the people will endorse him.
Such men as Messrs. E. Swann
George H. Lester, Fielding Dillard
and Rev. J. G. Gibson, after listen
ing to Capt. Carlton attentively for
over two hours, came from the hall
and gave him their hearty endorse
ment.
THE STOCK LAW.
The road sides and woods are verdant
with a rank growth of grass, weeds and
bushes since the stock law has gone
into effect, and snakes are increasing
very rapidly. The lands are also im
proving. We still hear some complaint
down in Oglethorpe, hut the people are
all quietly accepting the situation. The
hedge rows will produce more than some
fields wc see in cultivation.
It is reported that Mr. H. T.
Lewis, of Greene, came to Lexing
ton, Friday, and intended to reply
to Capt. Carlton. But there was
no reply left for any argument that
he advanced, and Mr. Lewis very
wisely reconsidered.
A Bacon-Reese leader was heard
to remark, Friday, in Lexington,
that he would lose Bacon and he
would lose Oglethorpe county; but
by the help of the boys he hoped to
save Seab. Reese. He can’t do it,
boys. It is too late.
The Greenesboro Herald is shoot-
iug Latin at our unoffending head
for daring to speak up in defense of
the smaller counties. The Banner-
Watchman don’t ^indulge in such
delicacies, but tries to print plain
English, that all the boys can un
derstand.
may have, and our friends below
will show an equal love and devo- j li cv c tlVal A. O. liaeon"''to-day^ has
• ion to us. , i ■_<- !_•
The Greenesboro Herald tries to
lilt the responsibility of tlie war
against the small counties from Mr.
Reese's shoulders. Tlie same paper
com'emns its own remarks. The Goi-
d in men met and selected delegates
without uttering .a word 3gainst
■ he re-apportionment proposition.
Flic Reese men passed the denuii-
ciatoiy resolution that we publi-h
in another column. “Proof of the
pudding is chewing the hag.”
Capt. Carlton can show the good peo
ple of Morgan county botfi letters and
telegrams, where he lias been quietly
working for more than a year past to get
a railroad through Madison. He has
this evidence in black and white. Has
Mr. Reese ever done this much for his
native county? Seab. seems to be labor
ing under the hallucination that he is
“all the way for Pike," from the post
master that he appointed for Madison.
If Mr. Reese feels such a filial d evo-
tion toward old Morgan, why does he
allow his friends and advisers to cripple
its political power? and why does not
his organ, the Madisonian, come out in
defense of the rights of its own people?
There is no slander or combination in
this, Mr. Blackburn, but it is a conspira
cy to re-elect Reese at the sacrifice of
the rights of the people of Morgan that
any man can s;e. If you expect the
good people df Morgan to sustain your
paper, throw over that political Jonah
(Iteese), and do battle for their rights.
Under which flag, brother Ii'ackburn,
Reese's or Morgan county’s? Speak or
shut up!
We were fuicibly impieased yes
terday with the old saying tha
great men’s minds tun in the tame
channel. In conversation with Hal.
Lewis, at Lexington, he advanced
the tame arguments, word foi

THE REESE RESOLUTIONS IN
GItEENE.
lion. II. T. Lewis offered tho follow
ing resolution.
Resolved, That it is the sense of tiiis
meeting that the recent action of the
Democratic Executive Committee of this
tlie Eighth Congressional district, in
seeking to change the basis of represen
tation of the several counties in said
district, by allowing the smaller coun
ties iu said district three votes in the
Democratic convention, transcends the
legitimate powers of said Committee,
and is wi tlioul authority and is there
fore a nulity.
This resolution was carried by the
unanimous vole of the meeting.
The above resolution was passed
by Mr. Seab. Reese’s friends in
Greene county, who had met to se
lect delegates to the congressional
convention. Ought not that reso
lution to seal the political doom ol
our congressman in the smaller
counties? Can any man with pride
in his county, or fairness in his
breast, vote for a candidate whose
only hope of being elevated again
to office is by robbing a certain
portion of his constituents of their
political rights? This resolution
shows that Greene county, with
Hancock, wants to be the boss of
the 8th district, and this she cannot
•>e on a just and fair representa
tion. Is there any other appeal
oecessary to be made to the voters
of Morgan Madison, Franklin, Hart
and Oglethorpe than a simple pub
lication of the above resolution, so
unanimously passed by Mr. Reese’s
friends in Greene county? It is a
transparent attempt to concentrate
political power in Greene, at the
expense of right and justice.
It is reported that one or. two of
the Reese organs in this district
are edited at long range.
T
An effort is being made to
tupture the kind feeling that has
existed between the people of Ath
ens and those of Oglethorpe coun
ty, in order to advance the politi
cal ends of Seab. Reese. It will
be trowned down by the citizens of
botl\ sections.
You may ridicule the statement
or not, but Capt. Carlton’s battery
did defeat a division of Yankees in
Virginia, and the enemy next day
reported i,ooo of their number kill
ed. This has nothing to do with
the race for congress, but it
matter of history. Here’s war rec
ord enough to stock a dozen cam
paigns.
Mr. Willis Harper, of this countv
stated on the streets of Hartwell
the other day, that when he was iy
ing on the side of the road during w«i«a...com. grain-
the war sick that General Lee came
along and although he knew Har
per was sick ordered him roughly to
get right up and go on, but that
General Gordon came by and dis
mounting walked while Harper
rode several miles. The old vete
rans of the Army of Virginia will
be surprised to hear of this cruel
and tyrannical act of General Lee.
They wouldn’t have thunk it of Un
