THE OLIVE BILL. The passage of the Olive bill would be a calamity to Georgia. When Hon. J. T. Olive, of Oglie- tfliorpe, on the heels of the great rail road scoop in Georgia, first introduced hie bill annulling the consolidation of rival railway lines, it appeared a most yvise and timely measure, and met with the support of many good and patriotic -■men, even receiving the endorsement o>f the Farmer’s Alliance. But this shows the folly of too has ty a decision upon a question,and espec ially one involving such an iinportaut .matter as the.railroad interests of our •State. Already new light is breaking upon our people, and they realize the fact that the passage of the Olive bill by the Georgia Legislature would not only retard the prosperity of oflr State for at least a decade, but defeat the very end that it is intended to subserve. This as sertion we can make plain to every in telligent and thinking man, wo be lieve. ., . Never within the history of our State waiTsucli a railroad boom hovering over it. The Northern capitalists have dis covered in Georgia a.new and inviting field for the investment of their surplus money, and in the next two years—if we will not place tpo many restrictions on railroads—millions of money will be invested in new lines, traversing every section of our great State—advancing the value of property many fold, devel oping our hidden mineral wealth, aud greatly increasing the public rev;-, nne. > But there is nothing more tinu r jus than one million dollars,unless it be two million dollars. Jf there is the slight- jeat impediment raised or doubt felt as -the safety of an investment, it will =at once *eek some other channel. UlSros. it is with the Northern capital now ready to invest in new railroad en terprises in Georgia. If ample protec tion is guaranteed by the Legislature to these corporations, hundreds of miles of new lines will be built; but let such a measure as the Olive bill become a law, and you will see an instant check upon railroad building, and Georgia will find herself far behind in the march of pro gress. i q . Again, there is ho earthly necessity for the enactment of such a dictatorial and usurpation measure as the Olive bill. The Interstate aril Georgia Railroad Commissioners* give ample protection to the people against contin uation or extortion by railroads; and It is in the power of these bodies to make the roads transport freight and passeu- gers at any price they may deem proper, limited only by the courts of our State. With such power vested in-tlie represent- tatives of the people, and such restrict tlons and-checks placed upon railways, it is a matter now impossible for then, to extort more than legitimate charged for their patrons. Now that the* State has taken upon itself the privilege of dictating to the railroads what their tarift* rates must be, it seems but just and equitable that these roads should have the privilege of formingsu^li combinations as will lessen expenses, and so manage their property as to best subserve their pecuniary in terests. Corporations, as well as indi-. viduals, have their rights, and it is but justice that the capitalists who invest their money in these gieat arteries of commerce—that do so much to build us and develop the country—* should have a fair return on their in vestment, and be permitted to operate and manage their property as they deem best, so long as they do hot trespass tipon the rights of their patrons, which is a matter impossible with pur present 1 QtlvAOfl ~ ..4.2 -L _ n 1 ■« It will be remembered that at the last meeting of the legislature Senator Jlc- Cahty introduced a bill which provid ed for a uniform system of text books to be used in our public.schools for fire years. The mere faet that this bftSvas intro duced bv such a man as Senator Mc- Cakty is one reason why it should have the careful ami earnest consideration of our people. The author of this bill is a clear-headed, thoughtful man; lie has /hi into; eat of the people'’ of Georgia very neat his hear);; and furthermore he is a teacher of much experience,who has given much thought to all the prob lems relating to education. But the fact that the bill bears Mc Carty’s name is by no means its only recommendation. It is a good jthifg in ,and of itself. In the first ^1^6, th$ State hy making contrails, for great quantities of books could be able to get them at greatly reduced rates,- much cheaper than they can be gotten under the present system where every county has its own hooks. Again, under the present system the buying of school books is a great tax on the peopled Teachers,to suit some whim of their own, are constantly changing the books, and compelling children'to buy new ones. A man moving from one county to another is forced to buy an entirely new set of books for his children. • il ,'i Then with a uniform system of books these books will be like so much money in the hands of the parents,'’"'for when the children have finished with them theyosnf be resold.School TJopkf would then become a sort pf i nvestim&ii. : Looking at the mafter frdnv am ^edu cational point of view, such a system as the one proposed would be of-gre$b ben efit. It is but natural that children should be idea of a S' If the citizen, who is not a stockhol der in a railroad company, has interest in it, beyond the rates for freight and passengers, and the character of the service given, we would like to know what it is. Take a farmer or merchant of apy other man in Clarke county, who is not a stockholder, and the interest he lias in a railroad is to have his freight of himself carried safely, speedily and cheaply. *\Vc come in contact with the railroads in one of the two ways only, as passengers or as shippers of freight. Let auy man who reads this, sit down and think, and lie will find that these are the only ways in which the railroad company affects him. If lie can travel cheaply, safely aud rapidly as a passen- f er or ship his freight in the same way, e gejs $11 he wants from the railroad. Iiere is no other way in which he ines into contact with it. He has no right or interest or concern that is or can be affected unless he is a passenger Or a shipper. lie cares not whether they run or stop, unless he wants to ride or ship something, or buy some thing that he has sliipped by others. "What difference does it make, therefore, to us, who owns the railroads? If we can ride on them just as cheaply, safely and rapidly, and ship our freight in like ‘manner, what difference does it make to, us;whether one man owns them all, or whether ^liey belong to a thou sand men. If that one owner furnishes just as good a service at the same cost, hqw, aye we hurt by his single owner ship? We would like for Mr. Olive or some of the supporters of liis measure to answer this question. Our columns an important justice court CASE.

The Fanners’ Alliauce has taken a decided stand against .tliis bill. But we cannot help thinking. that they have acted hastily. To the farmer, above all men, will this measure be of great benefit, and we hope that the Alliance may yet withdraw its objec tions. The Georgia Teachers’ Convention has also opposed the passage of thu/bill/ and in their opposition they made one are open to them.

Suppose one man should buy up every single mile of rail road in Georgia,* how Would that pur chase or how could that purchase injure the people? Is there anybody foolish .enough; to think that he could charge any more for freight or passages? We do not think there is one so ignorant. -We .Would! ride just as cheaply and ship our freight jUst as cheaply' as we do now, or ever did. The single owner Could hot advance the rates one single cent. He could not alter them except to reduce them. He could not stop a train, or discontinue a station, or refuse ac commodation of any sort. If Mr. Olive himself owned every mile of railroad in very good point, which is that in five- the State, the first thing he would dis- years time some Jvery great improve ments may be made in certain text books, and they would- hate to be com pelled to use the old books, wheu. new and improved works are being used in other states.

There was an unusually large atten dance of whites present, principally friends of Mrs. Archibald, but only half a dozen colored people. Mary was on hand, and accompanied by herjnother aud younger sister and Mrs. Gunter, a neighbor. • When the case w as called, Will Jack- son stated that be bad not engaged counsel,having depended on his mother to employ him a lawyer, but the old woman did not even make her appear ance. At this instant Col. Blanton Noble appeared, and at the suggestion of Judge Fuller, Jackson engaged his services, when a short conference w r as held between the client and Mary the grand jury room. A. P. Henley, Esq., appeared for the State, and announced ready. The examination of witnesses then ensued, and tlieir testimony- was the same as published in The Banner the day after the arrest. Mary Catherine Archibal sworn: On July 20tli I was coming from Mrs. Gun ter’s on my way home, by myself, and did not stop on the way. Saw Will Jackson some - distance off", and passed him, in reaching distance, Some four or five steps when he addressed me with an Infamous proposition. [Mary wrote on a slip of paper the negro’s exact words, and handed it to the, court] There were bushes and trees, rock - and gully near ns. Jackson used other words, but I-did not catch them. .1 ran off, and:did not look back, until ! got in the gate at home. Then I told him to wait 5 Hum WimAlirnr lie’"would be sorry for insuring me. I 'was 'twelve years old in September.' Capt. D. C. Oliver, B. O. W. Rose and others testified as to]the eonfession made by Jackson both iii the jail and calaboose, which is as already published in The Banner. He made these con fessions voluntary, and without threats or inducements of any kind. The prisoner’s statement was the only testimony introduced by the pefense. He said ; “I was sitting down on a crosstie at the end of the railroad cut. Mary Archibald ran by and squatted down by a pine tree on the hillside. She was eating sdinething, And the remark^ that I addressed to her were intended as a request for her t* divide what she had in her hand with me. The little girl re plied that I would get- myself into trouble. ,1 did not mean anything wrong and ilid not get up or follow her when she left.

We stopped the press at three o’clock this morning to repeat a startling story which has just reached The Ban ner office from police headquar ters. It seems that last night, w hile Police man Good rum was taking a bath,he saw a dirtdauber dying in a threatening manner toward him. This lynx-eyed officer of the law, who is ever on the alert for evil doers, mis took the dauber for a wasp and decided that It had some design upon his sacred person. So seizing his club, that was lying near by, he made a strike at the intruding insect and suceeeeded in de capitating it as neatly and effectually as a guillotine would do during' the reign of terror. Mr. Goodrnm stated tllat so soon as the dirtdauber discov ered the accident, he looked around for his head, and found it lying on the fioor near the bath tub. The dauber at once made for the missing head, and pro ceeded to neatly 'glue it upon his should ers. Seeming to have some doubt about the completeness of his work the insect stood upon its head, evidently with the attention of fastening the several parts on more securely. It then started to fly, but the head fell from his body again, but this did not disturb his daub- ership in the slightest degree, for it went on its way rejoicing. At last accounts the head was still alive. Now it is not the actions of the dauber that we speak of as improbable story, for we can swallow this with very little salt,hut that part of the narrative whfch speaks of one of .our police voluntarily taking a bath, seems to us like piling the agony on our credulity.
