ANNOUNCEMENT TO. OUR PA
The Board of Directors of
ens Publishing Company na
Tint Banker for a term of two years to
Mr. J. H. Stone and his associates.
This step was taken after mature delib
eration and with the firm conviction
that it will be beBt for our patrons and
for the stockholders. The stringency
of the times bad necessitated a decrease
of expenses which diminished our news
service and our eflioiency. It is be
lieved that an individual who is himself
famiRar with the details of the business,
could effect a reduction of
the outlay and yet
preserve the interests of our patrons
both subferibers and advertisers. It is
hoped and believed that all interests
will be subserved and that The Banner
will grow in usefulness.
Mr. Stone was for eleven years and
until its consolidation with The Ban
ker the manager of The Athens Cliron
itle, a popular and efficient newspaper
of Athens. He is an upright, worthy
citizen, and the management commends
him and his work to our patrons.
every Democratic speaker whenever
he makes an assertion on any sub-
ct. That is all well and good.
The Democracy is ready to stand by
the records, for it has nothing ot
which to be ashamed.
These Third party advocates do
not search the records when they
wish to gain information, bat take
it from the columns of their parti*
san sheets. They believe it to be
Gospel troth, and will suffer no man
to deny it.
Yet, whenever the records are pro
duced on one of their leaders, they
are prompt to deny them and stamp
them as lies. Be c? nsistent, if you
are wrong, and credit Democratic
journale with an equal ability to tell
the truth as Third party news*
papers.
The records show that Mr. Weaver
is a South hater, that on many oc
casions he has villified our people.

SALUTATORY-
As will be seen from the feregoing
notice, we have assumed for two years
the conduct of The Banner, in the ca
pacity of lessees.
Drawing from a long experience in
newspaper work a guide to our conduct
and inspired by the needs of the time
we enter upon tbe work with a hearty
goed, will and with the conviction of
success. We have no enemies to pun-
iih—no friends to reward. We shall
conduct The Banner on the bright side
ot life and constantly endeavor to make
for it a welcome home at each fireside
Our management will be governed by
abiding conviction of tbe intelligence
- and morality of the great
masses c-f the people. Temporary wan
derings by even a large number in tbe
bypalbs that lead from the great bread
road cf true life have no alarming as
surance to us, and we shall work on
believing that in due season the up
rightness and patrictism of a God-fear
ingcitizenship will lead us politically,
socially and financially to a happy solu
tion.
To advance tbe interests of Athens
and Northeast Georgia shall be our chief
aim All the people, of every class and
condition of life, are more or less in
dependent and we shall not advocate
any cause which promises success to one
at the expense of the other. But we
shall bring an untiring industry
ta the espousal of every cause which
.promises good to the whole people.
Believing in tbe principle of Demo
cracy, our columns,, under the man-
. agement of Mr. T. W. Reed, will con
tinue to battle for their success. We
fully reergnize the right of every citi-
z.n to his freedom of political opinion
and therefore, shall not indulge in any
vi lification or abuse of those with
whom we may differ. A cause that can

unworthy cause. Fully satisfied of the
soundness of Democracy and believing
that through its suc
cess alone can come relief
for the great masses of the people, we
shall feel the assurance that fair, argu
ment and open discussion will carry on
to triumphant success the original aad
bnly party of the people.

to laying it before onr readers, howev

from the wheat. All that is offensive to

fects will be left to others for publica
tion, and we promise that o*v columns

whole state was 21 69 per cent, and of
the negro population only 5.64. Tbe
increase of the whites was considerably
above the normal rate, determined from
previous censuses, and the black in

white people into the state and the em

A theory was once much discussed
that a drift of the negro population to

in time crowd the bulk of the negro
race in the United Stav< s into three or
