THE OLIVE BILL-NO* 6*
The first section of this much talked
of bill is as follows:
“Sec. 1. Be it enacted by the general
assembly of the State of Georgia, and it
is hereby enacted by the authority of
the same, that from and after the pas
sage of this act it shall be unlawful for
jtny railroad company, corporation,
partnership or person, either.natural or
artificial, to buy or hold anV shares or
stock in any railroad company or cor
poration iu this State or elsewhere, or
make any contract or agreement what
ever with any railroad company, cor
poration, partnership or person, eith
er artificial or natural, touch
ing or concerning any cor
porate property or franchises which
may have the effect or be intended to
have the effect to defeat a lesser compe
tition in their respective business or to
incourage monopoly, and that it shall
be unlawful for the parties to any such,
-contract or agreement or purchase
heretofore made since the fifth day of
December, 1S77, to proceed further in
he execution of the same.”
Really this would be amusing if it
wt-re not a bill actually,pending before
a law-making body. It provides that
no natural person shall make any
contract with another railroad
person concerning corporate pro
perty which may lessen competition
in their business. If such a bill becomes
a law, no two men in Athens could form
•a partnership if they- were renting
or buying from a corporation. It would
prevent any two citizens from consoli
dating their capital, and renting land
from a railroad company. Suppose two
or more enterprising citizens of Athens
should conclude to combine their capi
tal and put up an elevator on railroad
land. This bill,if it becomes alaw,would
make it illegal for them to do so* It is
astonishing that anybody even for one
moment should countenance such a
radical measure. Take our town of
Athens right now: we are trying to or
ganize a land improvement company.
If this Olive bill should become a law it
will seriously impede its progress. No
two eitizens can unite thejr means in
any contract in.tlie new eoinpanv’s-
propertv. No • two men in Athens
could combine and trade for any of the
property of our new company ' if the
Olive bill becomes a law. It applies to
contracts concerning the property of
any corporation. It is not confined to
ruilroaus. The language is . “any con
tract or agreement” * * * * concern
ing any corporate property.” If two
merchants had rented stores side by side,
from our Opera House Company, and
wanted to consolidate their stocks in
trade and good will and run both
stores as one, this bill would" make it
illegal.
The people o*f Georgia will no more
submit to any such communistic meas
ure than they would allow the Chicago
mi arch ft ts to comedown here and incite
insurrection.
FOREIGN-BORN CITIZENS.
The man or paper opposing the im
migration of foreign-born citizens, is
an enemy to the progress and develop
ment of bis city or section. It was a
foreign population that built up the
great West, and it is only the importa
tion of foreigners into the South that
will enable us to keep apace witli and
overcome the rapid increase in our
colored population, and save the old
slave-holding States from being Afri
canized.
The fact that there occasionally slips
in—among the thou£auds of deserving
and industrious emigrants that weekly
land at our ports—a few lawless and
turbulent characters, is no reason that
we should close our doors against every
alien, that desires to live among us.
Our National laws prevent the landing
upojn our shores of pauper emigrants, so
that there is no fear of the “scum of
Europe”taking refuge among us.
The simple reason that a man may
not advocate prohibition of the liquor
traffic does not make him a less desira
ble citizen. Bismakck himself is one
of the greatest beer drinkers in Ger
many, and the man who classes this
great statesman among “the scum of
Europe” would be considered an idiot.
This is a free country, and a man lias
the right to think and act and vote as
his convictions dictate, just so he does
not violate our laws or outrage society.
It is only fanatics and cranks who de
sire to remould humanity to suit their
own peculiar ideas. Such parties
should exile themselves to some lonely
mountain vale, and there put in
practice their cranky notions, where
they will not come in conflict with the
prosperity of a thriving and growing
city of the nineteenth century-.
THE NEXT G ONGRESS
It is stated that the President will
convene the 51st Congress,in extra ses
sion early in Oetober. The eyes of the
American people are fixed oh the com
ing session in eager expectation of a
satisfaeroly settlement of the great fi
nancial questions.
The overflowing treasury is embar
rassing to the people, and.it is a ques
tion of general interest, how will the
embarrassment be removed ?
The Charleston News and Courier
says:
There are at least four ways of
doing it: First, by Increasing the Gov
ernment expenditures in appropriations
for steamship subsidies, coast fortifica
tions, new war cruisers, rivers and har
bors and pension; second, by increas
ing the protective duties to a prohibi
tory- standard, and thus diminishing
the revenues from imports, as proposed
by the Senate bill in the last session of
Congress; third, by repealing the inter
nal taxes on whisky and tobacco; and
fourth, by putting raw materials of in
dustry on the free list, and by making
substantial reductions of duties on nec-
cessaries of living.”
How will it be ?
LONG COMMUNICATIONS*
We Intend to make The Banner a
a newspaper in the fullest acceptation
of the term, andjience will have no
room for long-winded communications
.expressing some individual’s opinion
on a subject that no one is part&ularly
interested in but the author. We will
always he glad to have articles from our
people on any live and' current topic,
hut must confine the writer to a space

to lay before its readers every morning

tion and all parts of the world, careful
ly weeded of superfluous wprds. Any
article calculated to hem :i t an individ-*
ujd, association or corporation—unles
purely- benevolent oni—will be charged
for as an advertisemont.
We.are not in the way of pvogre?
we shall never place any obstacle in
the path of true advancement.—Athen
Chronicle.
This confession does not speak much
for the influence of the Evening Chest
nut. For two days in succession it
published articles in its local columns
without editorial discent from the opii
ions expressed, that advocate measuri

country- villeges. One offers opposi
tion to railroads and the importation ol

article tights the paving of our streets.

We'now take occasion to lay before
the reading public a few ideas on the
other side of cite subject, in order to as
sure the other side that all the brains,
and worth, and interests in the State
of Georgia do not lie within the offices
of railroad corporations.—Athens
Chronicle.
The opponents of the Olive bill have
never contended that all the bVains and
worth, etc., are centered within the
offices of railroad corporations. No
one would he so reckless as to make this
assertion while Mr. T. W. Eked sur
vives. • Why-, his own college paper,
The Pandora,” that ‘doubtless has
carefully studied this aspiring young
genius’ reports a cogitation held by-
Mr. Reed while communing with him
self, thusly:
“There may be smarter men in the
world than Tom Reed, but I, Tom
Reed, don’t believe it.”
The Banner has never been so bold
as to even insinuate that the men who
manage our great railroad interests can
hold a candle beside this young intellec-
tuahelectric light.
THE UNIVERSITY-
Chancellor Bocals’ work for the Uni
versity and higher education in Georgia
lias bad its effect. In the Georgia leg
islature the University- seems to be tlie
favored subject for bills. Iu one ’day
the following bills were introduced,
which touch upon the University in
some way:
A bill to authorize the trustees of the
State University to accept as a branch
of the University a college of agricul
ture and mechanical arts, to be‘estab
lished at Wayeross.
A bill to appropriate the
proceeds of tlie lease of
the W. & A. railroad to educational
purposes and the experiment station
and farm.
A bill to establish an
industrial college as a branch
of the State University- for the educa
tion of white girls, and to appropriate
money for the same. This bill creates
the school and a board of directors who
shall select a site. Bids are contem
plated, as in the case of the Experi
ment station.,
A bill to provide for the admission of
white female students in tlie State Uni
versity- and branch colleges. -
Here are four bills, introduced by
members from different portions of
the state, and all in one day. Saying
nothing of the merits of tlie bills,which
of course could only- be'shown by a sep
arate discussion of each. AVe simply
call attention to the fact that the state
is wide awake on its educational inter
est. For this revolution Chancellor AV.
E. Boggs is due much of the credit and
praise. We hope the legislature will do
something for tlie State’s University.
They can afford it,for they- have done but
little previous to this. This is the cen
tennial year of the college, and would
be a'suitable time for it to spring forth
with a newness of energy-. If the peo
ple of Georgia and the legislature will
stand by Chancellor Boggs in liis great
work, the University will yet shove, in
the hundredth year of its life, that it
has grown better by reason of age.
But at the same time there is a great
deal-of hard sense in the assertion that
railroad combinations are oppressive
trusts. Newspapers-may laugh it into
scorn; may with their beguiling ways
cover up with slick words and honeyed
phrases the true meaning of the affair;
may cry out that the politician is lead
ing the people to their own destruction;
and call a halt in the supposed madden
ing rush to doom; but more sublime
than the awful roll of thunder and
clearer than the lightning’s vivid flash,
the voice of the people will be
heard speakirfg in condemnation of
their policy.—Evening Chronicle.
Three cheers and a shower of peanuts
from the gallery! When Editor Reed
unloaded himself of that awakening
sentence lie doubtless imagined that he
was delivering a sophomore address be
fore an enraptured audience. Young
man, if you desire to become an editor
you must forget.tliese old college har
angues and get down to solid argument.
They sound mignty- nice on the cam
pus, but these old orations won’t do to
revamp for the readers of the Ev

A HORROR A EAR HISHOPVILLE.
rive negroes Assault a Young White
31an and liis Wife—The Man Beat
en, Probably Mqrilereil-The
Wife Shamefully Abused.
Special to The Banner.
Bishopville, July-5.—On last Fri
day two young white people, Mr. and
Mrs. Daniels, appeared in the neigh
borhood, of Bethlehem Church, about
three miles above here, and stopped
over night with one Ransom J. Ander
son, a colored man, and on Monday
morning started out for Bishopville to
look for work. On their way to ' town
they- were met by one Ned Williams, a
young negro, who bears a very bad
reputation, and were decoyed by Ned
to bis house, where he said they could
remain during Saturday,-and he eould.
then pilot them on Sunday to. a good
place to stay- until they eould obtain
work. '
On Sunday- morning Ned Williams
went off’, ostensibly to see about getting
a bouse for the young couple. His real
object, however, was to summon four
of his comrades, Ed Slater, John Wil
liams, his brother Tom, Charles and
Preston Jefferson, to aid him in a
•scheme lie had planned. The five ' ne
groes held a meeting just outside of
William’s house anil in sight of their
victims.
A little after dark Williams told the
y-oung white man and his' wife that he
would now conduct them to the home
he had secured for them, and they set
out with him, but had only gone about
two hundred yards from the honse When
Ned's four companions jumped on
young Daniels and beat him, and drove
him away. Then the five with drawn
pistols, assaulted the woman, each
abusing hei to bis heart’s content. The
poor creature, half dead, was- forced
back into Ned William’s house and
there kept until the next uipmhig,
when William’s wife carried her to- the
house of Preston Jeflerson, aflil he took
her to the house of June Cupid, she
remained with them until last night,
when the white people*of tlie vicinity-
got the first inkling of the crime.

Before the aspiring young genius

the practice of law, and be will be sur-
I rised when he discovers that tlie mere
mention of his name docs not fill his
office with clients and his pockets with
fees. In fact, we are afraid that there
are a great many surprises yet in store

exercising his equestrian talent itivould
be best to start oft* by connecting him
