lint if the Chestnut is deter-
mined to depend upon tlie brains
and arguments of anotlier' paper
to get it out of a very unpleasant pre
dicament. Let us advise our neighbors
to fall back on some other paper than
the Atlanta Journal, for only a few
days since, in speaking of the assured
building of tlie Georgia, Carolina and
Northern road the Evening Journal
slid:
‘When the Richmond and Danville
[secured control of the Atlanta and
Wlurlotte Air Line several years- ago

Here is a confession from the Jour
nal that the building of the G.,C. & N
-a line that will do more for our section
and Georgia than any line ever con
strncted—owes its very existence to the
hotting process so sternotisly opposed by
the Olive bill, the Journal and the little
uie-too paper across the street.
“We long'to impress the facts” upon
the Chestnut, that Hon. Hoke Smith

According to the Journal’s statement

is absolutely true.
The farmers, within themselves, are
powerless to remedy this wrong and
outrage. It is only the 'strong hand

the cotton planter is combatting the
bagging combine, he must see that his

other grasping enemy. A bill will be
introduced at the present session of our
legislature that, if passed, will accom

of the cotton farmer in this body will
vote for and work for a bill that will be
such a great saving to this oppressed
.class, we do not doubt.
The Georgia legislature must lose
no time in enacting whatever legisla
tion is necessary to right Ihieanb n
wrong.
THE ATLANTAJOURNALAND THE
C-AND N. RAILROAD
Our esteemed friends of the Atlanta
Journal while carefully avoiding an
approval of the.Olive bill as* it stands
have avowed themselves as favorable to
legislation in that direction. Tlie
Evening Chronicle calls attention to
the fafct that lion. Hoke Smith is Pres
ident of the Journal Company and also
attorney for the G., C. & X. Railroad
company, and evidently is impressed
with the eonViction that this fact, set
tles the question of danger to the G.-,
C. & X. from the Olive bill. It is true
that Mr. Smith is president of the Jour
nal company and also attorney for the
G., C. & X. Railroad company, but it
is hardly probable that he is in favor of
the Olive bill in its present shape. It
it not unlikely that he was in favor of
it tlie time it was introduced, but he
has no doubt since then become better
informed.
TheG., C.& X. Railroad company
bus sold a majority of its stock to the
Seaboard & Roanoke Railroad company
and lias leased its road also to the latter.
These contracts were made with the
express purpose of giving tlie Seaboard
& Roanoke a monopoly of the busines
donp over tlie G., C. &. They will
have, that effect. Xo throfigh bill of
lading from Athens' for example to
Xew York will be given by thp G., C
& X. which does not send the shipment
over the Seaboard & Roanoke lines af~
ter it passes beyond the rails of the G.
C. & X. The Olive bill declares^ that
for making these contracts the charter
of the G., C. & X. shall be forfeited.
Xo sensible, fair minded man will
advocate any such measure. The G.
C. X. and the Seaboard & Roanoke
have a right to make these conti-acts ‘so
long as they do notJnjure the people.
The people of this part of the State are
interested in seeing the G., C. & X.
builtand they will not countenance any
measure which is calculated- to defeat
it.

But after all, what further can be
done? Even if the members of tlie
South Fork Fishing Club are responsi
ble for the great Conemaugh flood,
who will suppose that they, wealthy as
they are, can retrieve the great loss? It
seems to us that the best thing to do is
to pass this great disaster by simply as
a great misfortune, now that it has
happened and cannot-be retrieved. But
at least there is one thing which should
impress itself on the entire country
henceforth. Tha* is the necessity of
terracing as a preventative of over
flows. We have previously spoken
about this as a remedy of the great floods
of the Savannah river, and we verily
believe the situation every where can
he made safer from these disastrous
floods, if the farmers would take the
matter in hand and keep the rains on
their lands instead of letting them run
to feed the destructive livers.
We believe that the late disaster at
Johnstown is a death knell to the sys
tem of impounding water that has be
come universal; and we think that with
this and a careful'attention to terracing
by the farmers of the land,a speedy and
effective remedy for the devastating
floods, so common of late years, will
result.

Athens has been infested with thieves
for some time.. Early in the spring
this direul work began with the bur
glary of a good many pieces of jewelry,
diamonds, etc., from Prof. White’s rer-
ideneeon Mi Hedge avenue. A few nights
afterwards they showed up at Mr??.
Reese’s, and everybody remembers how
thbv were shot at by some students then
hoarding at Mw. Rees’s.
Not satisfied with this little adven
ture, involving a narrow escape of
death, the infamous villians have been
making their presence felt in many a
pantry, wardrobe and closet since then
and have always managed to steer clear-
of Capt. Cran'Oliver and his force.

Among the many valuable weekly
exchanges received at our office, none
find -si warmer welcome or a higher ap
preciation than the Jackson Herald,
published at Jefferson, Ga. It is al
ways brimful of interesting local news,
and its editorial columns are filled with
sound Democratic doctrines.
The Herald is no fence-rider, for it
never hesitates to take a determined
position on all public questions, and
presents its arguments in a clear and
forcible manner. It is a paper that is
a credit yes, an honor, to the press of
Georgia. The Herald is a paper that
will not only command a local support,
but will be recognized and appreciated
anywhere. A man who lias ever lived
in Jack-oii county arid don’t take the
Herald is behind the times, while our
Athens merchants will find it one of
the best advertising mediums differed
them.
It is all over now, and having been re
leased by the firm grip from excitement
created from pofc to pole over the Sul-
livan-Kilrain fight, the world can now
look on the matter of prize fighting in
a more serious aspect. What is it for?
Where is its advantage or profit?
These are questions whicli rise up and
demand a satisfactory answer before
prize fighting ean he endorsed by a re
fined and,civilized people.
In speaking of prize fighting from
an esthetical stand point the New
Orleans Times Depioerat says:
‘There must be some cause lor such
a condition of affairs. The brutality in
man’s nature gives no adequate expla
nation, for meu who are n#t brutal are
eager to witness the fray. What can
it be that thus attracts?
There is in us all an unconscious
worship of physical perfection in the
human form. Whether it be the beau
tiful figure of a Venus of Milo or the
rigid muscle and manly vigor of Sulli
van, an outburst of spontaneous admi
ration comes from the lips when they
are presented to view. Physical pi*ow-
ess is associated in the mind with the
power to achieve results, and that which
evokes respect and esteem for a man
who succeeds is closely linked with
that element of our nature which in
stinctively compels admiration for a
physical giant.
To this admiration for the physically
perfect in the human form is added the
peculiar pleasure felt at any exhibi
tion of scientific skill. We enjoy the
-sight of men straining every nerve to
win a boat race, and , gaze enraptured
upon the steady stroke of the oars as
they simultaneously strike the water.
Many of us find exquisite joy in the
l-ifie shot that lays low a monarch of the
forest, and as his. life blood slowly
trickles upon the grass our enjoyment
finds no surcease. All this is uncon
scious worship of skill.
Why, then, should not the scientific
skill displayed in the fistic arena awaken
similar emotions of pleasure? The
well-directed blow, the parry, the swift
counterblow—this is not brutality; it
is skill. We instinctively admire it in
every other sphere—why not in the
realm of prize-fighting?”
This is all very true, in a measure,
but when it comes to making prize-
lighting a source of gambling and ca
rousing; when it comes to assembling
a crowd of three thousand people in de
moralizing excitement to see brute
force as well as skill used to
overcome an adversary even in the
last extreme if necessary; when it
comes to the bad influence which such
a* this puts over the youths of the
land, y>e say the limit of admiration for
The bill recently introduced by Mr.
Venable, of Fulton, should he passed

ville is crowded with lunatics and dip
somaniacs who having been car
ried there by the results of an insatiate
thirst for intoxicants, and narcotics,
could be enred of insanity if they were
placed at ah inebriates’; home with a
special treatment for this line of insan
ity. The asylum! too crowded any
how, and if the inebriates of the State
were taken in charge before insanity
sets in, they could he permanently re

It is a crying necessity in Georgia
to-day, this home for inebriates, and
we.certainly hope to see the movement
meet with speedy and full approval by
the Legislature.

He was found at work out at the
cemetery and was brought back under

diamond pins- and the like some, of
which Prof. White recognized as his

Captain Oliver gave the details as above

A Dangerous Nuisance,
Since the burning of Mr. Coleman’s
store on Prince avenue three weeks ago,
nothing lias been done towards reinov
ing the debris. There is a lot of ohl
half burned meats ami canned fish piled
beneath the ruins which in the course
of decay are giving forth an almost in
tolerable odor to those living in the .vi
cinity. The city’s attention has been
called to this, but it seems thatjnothing
lias yet been done to remove the foul
stench. It lias become dangerous to
live near around, and many complaints
are being made. This' is a good way
for the city to have some big damage
