he ATHENS BANNER ■ TUESDAY MORNING ■ AUGUST 25, 1891~ TOM REED ANDICR1SP. Ex-Speaker Reed has been inter viewed by a reporter of the New •Yor*» World. He prefers to see Mills made Speaker, bnt says Crisp is o. k. It will be remembered that Mr. Crisp was the democratic leader who last year walked squarely in front of the dictator and abased him most violently for the injustice of his rul ings. Speaking about this little in» cident and about the race for Speaker generally Czar Reed has the follow* ing to say: “I am on good terms with all of the candidates. Personally, without any disrespect to either of the other two, I would be glad to have Mills the next Speaker. He has capacity for the ploce, is a good parliamenta rian, and, as I said before, a sincere and frank antagonistic. Crisp 1 have always found a quick, ready man. Last session, when I was in the Speaker’s chair he quoted me against myself, and did it very clev erly. He was O. K. It was good politics.” “How did you parry the thrust?’ “Parry nothing,” exclaimed the ex-Speaker, laughing until the fat covered up his eyes as the crust of a hot-cross-bun engulfs the raisins on its surface. “I never said a word. I couldn’t afford, officially, to notice a is one with which they are nece6sa» rilp unfamiliar. It preceded their advent. It is difficult to conceive of any* thing in nature which had less to do with “establishing” this system.than the Richmond Terminal Company. It cannot even say, “ post hoc, ergo propter hoc,” for the roads were built before the Terminal was chartered. If some Wall Street dynamite were to blow the Terminal to the skies this afternoon, not a rail of the track from Savannah to St. Louis, would even be so much as jostled. The trains would run on as smoothly as ever, and the freight and passengers would come and go after its demise, just as they did before the birth of the Riehmond Terminal. It is mere ly a stockholder and stockholders, although they never resign,frequent ly die; but the railroad runs on while the administrator or the re ceiver sells the shares of the defunct one to somebody else, who takes the place of the late lamented on the list of stockholders. The difficulty with these extrava- It seems that out West there is a breach in the Alliance on the sub-treas ury scheme. Money will come easier next month we are told—blessed assurance. Yesterday was the hot. hottest of the gant claims i„, «h.U. creates di. sion of Congress. Don’t you see the point?’ with a smile that broadened his face until it became as round and jolly as the moon on her fourteenth night. “I treated the matter as I would have don’e bad another man’s language in a previous Congress been quoted in his absence. But I could have answered it and can yet if I am ever asked. Yes; looks like a lively session ahead.*’ THE TERMINAL COMPANY AND "THE SOUTH EAST SYSTEM OF RAILWAYS." The spokesmen for the Richmond Terminal Company industriously in culcate the idea, upon all occasions, that they have “established” what they call “the South East system of railways,” meaning the Central of Georgia and its Western connections One would imagine, to listen to their discourses upon this subject, that the Terminal Company bad really built the Central, the Western & At lantic, and all its Western connect tions. They dilate with conscious pride upon their great achievement in “establishing,” as they term it, “a Southeast system of railways.” They claim, with the airy, confident style of public benefactors that they have not only been the originators of a great idea, but the projectors and builders of a great public work here in Georgia. If these estimable gentlemen had been much in Georgia, or had taken lie trouble to acquaint themselves somewhat with the antesbellum his tory of the State, they would be sur prised to discover that the Central and the Western ft Atlantic rail roads were actually built and In ope ration before the Terminal Company was ever thought of, and that they were built by Georgians at that They would further learn that the Western connections of these roads also antedate the birth of the Ten. minal Company. Farther, they would find that this system of roads stretching from the South Atlantic ports, were projected and built in steady pursuance of the idea of draw, ing the traffic of the great West to these same South Atlantic ports. In the speeohes of Gordon, Wilson .Lumpkin, Stephens and others, in the reports of John P. King and in all the public utterances of the great Georgians of that day whoconceivod this idea and who carried it out, will be found In profusion all the thought which has ever been lately expressed upon the subject It will be found clearly stated and profoundly argued. Nothing has been added to it by the recent utterances. Both then and now it was a great truth and it must be confessed that our flrieads of the Terminal Company state it plausibly and argue it well. But they are not the discoverers nor are they the builders. They found this system already “established” when they came into Georgia. They make the common mistake of many new comers of supposing that the history of Georgia begins with the rebuilding ol Atlanta after the war, and that prior to that time there were no great enteiprizes projected and carried to completion in Georgia. They are excusable therefore for supposing that tiieir thought is a new oneT_ The era in which it was first proclaimed trust on the part of the people to wards the railroads. The people know better. They know what the tacts are. When therefore so much is claimed and so great a scheme is outlined as a new creation of the brain of the present, profound dis trust is engendered. Foundations are laid in silence for hostile and un- iust feelings towards railroads gen* erally. Irritation succeeds suspi cion and prejudice succeeds irrita tion. The railroads have legal rights and are indispensably necessary. They ought all to be fostered and protected by the State. They are ts highways and should be control* ed and regulated, not destroyed. When the public mind is inflamed or irritated therefore the true wisdom is in conservatism on both sides, and least of all ought the railroads by wild and extravagant claims to in tensify the feeling of distrust. Thk leaves will soon begin to turn. What steam is to the engine, Hood,s Sarsaparilla is to the body, producing bodily power and furnishing mental force. GRAND TEMPERANCE RALLY. A Large Crowd will Gather at Bishop Saturday. The temperance movement is on the march in tb» section. . Saturday night the pavilion at Bishop will be filled with people from all around about that section. The occasion will be a grand temper ance rally, and temperance speakers frem Athens and other points will he there. Asa result of the meeting, the Good Templars will doubtless establish a large and flourishing lodge at Bishop. High Shoals, just four miles distant, has the largest lodge of this order in the state, and the new lodge at Bishop will start out with valuable support near at hand. - THETWITTY BILL. Mr. Twltty Writes a Card About The Banner’s Atlanta Reports. Atlanta, Ga., July 22 1891. Ediiok Banner W atom an, Athens Ga. Dear Sib : You do the people, as well as the Twitty bill, a great injustice by stating the first part of the proposi tion contained in the bill, and leaving off the latter. You say in last week’s issue, (weekly,) that the Twiity bill declares all obligations to pay at torneys fees void, without stating un less a plea or pleas be filed by the de fendant, and not sustained. You mis represented the bill in the same way last winter, 1 wrote you and asked you to correct it. You failed to do'so. 1 now write to ask, in all kindness, that you furnish me with an explana tion why you persist in such a course Respectifully J. N. Twitty. [The Banner baa no desire to do either Mr. Twitty or the people any injury in itB reports of this bill. We have asked Mr. Twitty more than once to write out the full purposes of the bill for publication which he has refus ed todo.—Ed.] Herb is democracy of the truest type, found in the close of a great speech made by Roger Q. Mills lately in New York. “Jefferson sleeps, but the princi ples he proclaimed still live. From the day he entered the House of Burgesses to the day that he entered that narrow house on the. mount of Monticello, by all his acts and utterances he dedicated this land to liberty and self-govern ment as the means of preserving it. Not to liberty in some things and at some times, hut liberty iu all things and at all times, and in all conditions and among all colors, and nationalities of men *, liberty from the furthest point in the frozen zones of the north to the furthest point of perpetual summer in the Bouth; liberty from ocean to ocean and from earth to skies; liberty to live and liberty to pursue our own happi ness in our own way; liberty to work and liberty to sell the produce of our labor when and where we please; liber ty to buy, liberty to eat and drink and wear the things we buy or make; liber, ty to think and liberty to utter what we think. In one word, this land has been consecrated, purified and set part as the home of free people, and if we are but true to ourselves and trae to the precepts of our fathers we will con. tinue to grow in prosperity and hand down unimpaired the priceless heritage to our children and our children’s chil dren in all the generations to come.” A Letter in this issue of the Bbnneb from Mr. J.N . Twitty, author of the famous Twitty bill states that we have repeatedly published accounts of his bill with persistence to do it injustice. Mr. Twitty is palpably wrongin this remark since the Banner has asked him more than once to write oat an elaborate de scription of the bill and its purposes for the readers of the paper. The Savannah News shows its lack of loyalty to royalty by saying; “Because a few royal personages are alleged to have announced their intention of visit ing the forthcoming international expo sition at Chicago, the newspapers of that hog-murdering hamlet are shouting in ec8tacies of glee that ‘Chicago at tracts royalty.’ It also attracts flies. COL UPSHAW RESIGNS THE YOUNG MEN’S DEMOCRATIC ** LEAGUE PRESIDENCY. A MEETING FRIDAY NIGIIT. At Which Time a Full Corps of Officers Must be Elected—It Is High Time theClubWas Getting In Good Trim. Col. E. P. Upshaw resigns the office of president of the Young Men’s Demo cratic League. He will leave Athens on the first of September to go to Atlanta where he will prautice law in the future, and this is the reason he will resign the office of president of the Young Men’s Demo cratic League of Athens. Colonel Upshiw has held this office for more than a year, and wonld have been re-elected unquestionably at the next meeting of the olnb, there hav ing beeu no opposing cam! elate men tioned. A meeting of the ciuh has been called by the president to take place next Fri day night.

Fast railroad schedule's seem to be the craze now, and Athens is to have full .-Imre. The Alliance holds a Convention and Passes Resolutions. Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 18 —[Specirl.]— President Peek, of the State Alliance Exchange received the heartiest possi ble endorsement at the hands of the County Trustee Stockholders, who met in annual session here today. This not only took the shape ot a strong resolution endorsing his action in the past, but they passed a similar resolution endorsing him for re elec tion. In fact, they elected the old board of trustees, and instructed them to make Colonel Peek President. If there was any opposition to this it did not mani fest itself. President Livtngston took an active part in the convention. All efforts to make it appear that Peek was in anyway mixed up in the peculiar transactions of busi ness agent Wynn, who seemed to have failed utterly. People who knew Peek have said all the time that there could be nothing iu such charges, and the stockholders ot the Exchange evidently agree to that. There is some talk to-night of the enj dorsement resolution being rushed through, but tbi* talk comes from peo ple on the outside. The convention session was held with closed doors. Resolutions were adop ted condemning the action of the At lanta Journal, Macon Telegraph and the other papers in the State pursuing the same policy towards the Alliance referring especially to the attacks upon President Peek. This resolution and that endorsing Colonel Peek, and the re-election of the Board of Trustees constituted the prin jcipal work of the Convention. Ohl. A 8TRING OF FUNERALS Half a Mile Long Stretching from the City to the Cemetery. New York, Ang. 18.—The Ward line passenger steamer City of Washington has arrived here from Mexican ports mid Havana, and as a precautionary measure was detained for thorough in spection and fumigation by the health officer at quarantine. The City of Wash- ington.left Vera Cruz early in August, and then yellow fever was prevalent to an alarming extent in that city. The hospitals were filled, and though the health authorities were striving to check the spread of the disease, their efforts were apparently unavailing. Their first attempts were to isolate the patients «s soon as the malady made its appearance, hut the disease spread so rapidly that It was impossible to cope with it. Many deaths have occurred within the last six weeks, and it was a common sight, officers say, to see a string of funerals half a mile long, stretching from the gates of the city to the cemetery, each funeral party waiting patiently for a chance to pury its dead. Among the latest victims of the mal ady is L. J. Snowball, the well known commission merchant of 70 Wall street, who has been in Mexico since August 2. A few day ago The Evening Post print ed a report of the prevalence of yellow fever in Vera Cruz, sent h re by Mr. Snowball He was on his way to C6r- dova, to which place he was going to claim a fortune of $65,000 and 4,000 Rcres of ground. Mr. Snowball remain COL. E. P. UPSHAW. term. It will be a most enthusiastic meetii%, no doubt, for the interest in the success of the Democratic party in this part of the South was never at the high pitch it now is. since the bloody old days of reconstruction. Every young democrat in Athens ought to be at the meeting next Friday night. COL UPSHAW INTERVIEWED. ‘To my mind," said Colonel Upshaw yesterday when seen by a Banner reporter “there was never a time when the democratic organizations of the South ought to be more awake than at this time. There was nothing, practically nothing for us to do during the past two years of our organization, because everything was solid for the party of our fathers and the grand old ship of dem tcracy had smooth waters and favorable breezes. “But that placid sea is changing,” and as the colonel spoke he pushed back his silk hat from his handsome forehead, and shook the ash *from his cigar thoughtfully. “It must be con fessed,” he continued “that a cloud is in the horizon, a faint cloud, it is true, but the breeze is blowing eastward and that cloud is coming from the West. All democratic clubs ought to unite more firmly than ever before.” “Not to fight the Farmers Alliances surely. You can’t mean that?” said the reporter. “oh no, don’t fight.” “Oh, of course noL There is no fighting for democrats to do just yet, or if there is I can’t see it that way. But they ought to unite. Suppose the Third party apostles whip into the South. There will be a demand then for democratic forces to fight hack the scenes of reconstruction days and to battle against radicalism. See? If the republicans in the South, whioh meant the negroes get a finger in the politi cal pie of this section, again, don’t you see the necessity of opening a campaign for Democratic education? Can’t you see that it is wisest to prepare for war in time ot peaeft? Reasons like these prompt me to say that all Democratic organizations in this country ought to be organizing again fimly in advance of the cam paign that is coming. Our Athens league ought to get itself in shape. “I wish I were not forced to resign the position I have held as president, and which has been such an honor and a pleasure to hold.” Colonel Upshaw is one of the ablest young men in Athens, and this city will indeed, regret his departure. He will resume the praotice of law in At lanta most promisingly. A>K uyspkfsv_, Indigestion, Stomach disorders, ns# BROWN’S IRON BITTERS. AH dealers keep it, tl per bottle.

Topeka, Aug. 18.—The Republicans opened the campaign at Eldorado, But ler county, where an andienoe of over three hundred farmers were present to hear the issue discussed. The meeting being the initial one of the campaign it •was the most enthusiastic since the up rising of the Farmers’ Alliance, and in dicates a great awakening of Republi canism. * Ex-Congressman Hanback spoke to the people for over two hours. Many farmers present declared that they were with the Alliance and Peo ple’s party, and would never again vote that ticket. Of this number about one- third were Democrats. A novel feature of the _ occasion was the appearance of a fanning mill on wheels with a boy turning the crank, and a man feeding it with bushels of Peffer’s fiat dollars, The Banner is asked by the Alliance committee to reproduce the following card which has been issued by the Fort Worth Texas Alliance: Hubbard, Randolph County, Mo., j Ang. 12tb, 1891.—Io the members of | the Farmers' Alliance and Industrial ; Union, and the Farmers’ and Laborers, Union of the United btates. Brothers: > This communication is for the pur pose of informing you that there will I be held in the city of St. Louis, state of' Missouri, on the s third Tuesday (15 b day) of September, 1891, a meeting ol the Alliance brothers <>f the United States who are in accord with the reso lutions passed at a meeting recently , held in that city of Fort Worth, Texas. ; The objections of the Forth Worth I meeting are fully set out in the resolu- . tions addopted by that body hereto ap pended. ' The under signed were elected an j Fx cutive Committee to make all ar rangements necessaey for the convention referred to above. We have corresponded with the General Managers of a number of rail roads, and find that they are willing to give greatly reduced rates upon their roadsto all delegates attending this meeting. A basis of representation will be fixed at three delegates from each and every county in this jurisdiction of the National Alliance. Reduced hotel rates will be secured in the city of St Louft, and all mem bers of the order are cordially invited to take part in making this manifesta tion of the farmers of this country a grand success. The meeting, as will be seen from the Fort Worth repolations is a protest on the part of the lovers of the Constitution of the Alliance against seeing that or- hanization protected by a body of- mm who have no interest in fearing ami whose love for the organization is limi- tep by the amount of personal gain they can get out of it. This Is an effort on the part of the conservative membra and real farmers of our order to emancipate the Farmet* Alliance from the control of scheming politicians and designing demagogues, That we will succeed in this effort we entertain no doubt. We especially ask that all newspa pers in the United States will repro duce this communication addressed to Hon. W S. McAllister, Canton, Miss , Hon. Will L. Sargent, Rayner, Tex.,or to U. S. Hall, at Hubbard, Randolph county, Mo., will be promply answered. Yours fraternally, Committee, U. S. Hall, Ch’r’m’n; Hubbard, Mo W. S. McAllister, CaDton, Miss. W. L. Sargent, Rayner, Texas. THE RESOLUTIONS The resolutions referred to in the above card are in substance as follows: We, the anti-sub treasury members of the Na’ional Farmers’ Alliance and In Austria]-Union, recognizing the grave and responsible duties resting upon us as farmers and citizens and memb. rs of our beloved order, the Farmeis’ Alliance, hereby present for the careful consideration of oar brother Alliance farmers the following preamble and resolutions: Whereas, the Farmers’ Alliance* has been organized to the end that its mem bers might become educated in the science of economical government, and that we might become more united in our action, having been divided through the influence of the war, while we have ever been united in interest; and Whereas, our beloved order, the Far mers’ Alliance, was founded for the ex press purpose as set forth in our consti tution to bring about the above most important results, and that this educa- ion and union should be brought about in a strictly non-partisan sense and manner; and Whereas, we declare to the world in our constitution that the Alliance would ever advocate “equal rights to all and special favors to none;” and Whereas, we declared to the world through the Alliance that we would make no war upon any of the legitimate interests of our country; and Whereas, we were assured, when we entered the organization that no one should be ostracised for efrion’s sake, and refused admittance into, or turned out of the order on account of any belief he might hold on political question*; and Whereas, we felt assured that this organization would be directed and con trolled by farmers, who were honest men and who would labor to unite the farmers of oar common country who were divided by the war, etc., etc. Resolved, that we denounce the sub- treasury and land-loan schemes and governmental ownership of railroads as violation* of the first principles of good government, as paternal in their char acter, as centralizing in their tenden cies, and If enacted into law would cre ate such a horde of national officehold ers as wonld fasten the clutches of the party in power upon the throats of the people so strongly that the voices of honest, patriotic citizens would no longer be heard in the control of gov ernmental affairs. We further denounce these measures as being a violation of the constitution of our beloved order. That we denounce C. W. Macune and his corrupt methods, together with the acts of his tools and henchmen, as be ing a disgrace to the order and a stench in the nostrils of all honest men who know of their corruption and villainy, and thus point out to their order hy continuing such men as this in power they are enabled, hy betraying us and our interests, to most effectually chain us to the juggernant cars ot monopoly etc, etc. J GocdLooks.

Raleigh, Aug. 18.—Editor Ramsey, of L. L. Polk’s paper, The Progressive Farmer, was interviewed by your cor respondent. He declares that no men tion was made of a third party at the state Alliance convention, and says he did not find any bold out-and-out Third party men, and sees no drift that way in North Carolina. He asserts further that he observes no increase in the amount of dissatisfaction with the old political parties. Yet, in strange con trast to this assertion by Ramsey, is the fact that Alliance delegates on their way home sang at the stations, "Good- By, Old Party, Good-By," the singing being led hy a state senator who is an Alliance enthusiast. Speaking of L. L. Polk, Editor Ramsey says nis friends are not willing be sbonld be a candidate for governor, as they do not propose he shall step down from his high position, and feel sore of his re-election thereto in December.

Cleveland, O., Ang. 18.—The race war which has been going on between the factions of St. Stanislaus Roman Catholic church broke out again here. At 12:30 o’clock the police were notified that a crowd of over 100 Hungarians had surrounded the house of Priest John Matvonv. The police found the interior of the house iu a state of the utmost confusion. The floor was strewn with stones and bricks, and nearly every pane of glass in the house was broken in two. The priest said that he was awakened about midnight by a crash, and a heavy stone fell directly upon his bed. As soon as the first stone was thrown the air was rent with cries of "kill hunt murder the Slav priest!” etc., and dur ing the uproar several shots were fired. Sergeant Griffin and a detail of officers were sent out, and as they approached the house the mob dispersed in the darkness and quiet restored. Sfif-wine OF uamuui * Tonic for Woman.
