GKX.E. 1\ AXEXAXDER.
In this issue of Tm: Banner we re-
produee Mr. Williamson’* card and
Col E. P. Ax.bx.vXDKu’s reply to it of
.their into dispute, which appeared in
the Atlanta Constitution. The reply
of Mr. Alexander is a clinrliing evi
dence of the eorn ctness of Gen. Au:x-
AXDi h's l’orir.er statements, and tin*
copy if the contract which he publishes
frigned by Mr. Williamson iiiuiseif, we
think settes the matter as to whether

his road to the Georgia Central.
Gen. Alexander's reply character
ized by its fair and open handed man
ner of dealing with the questions of
dispute, as well as by its conclusive
arguments, and every fai -minded man
can but attest the plainness and cJUitlor
of his card.
The denial of 3Ir. Williamson that
the owners of his road had made over
tures to Mr. Alexander within the
past four month, is answered by 3Jr.
Alexander with an announcement of
The name of 3Ir. Alfred Silly, tlie
gentleman who made such overtures.
As Gen. Alexander says it will be time
enough to enter into the details whenilr
Sully denies this.
Gen. Alexander declines to enter
into a discussion of the general remarks
made by Mr. Williamson relevant to
the Olive bill and the railroad situation.
lie is a man of wisdom and experi
ence in railroad affairs and has his
opinions which he conscientiously
holds to. lie is willing to these opin
ions whenever the occasion demands it,
but it is foreign to the question under
discussion by him and 3Ir. Williamson
now.
The whole question lias settled down
to tills: Has Gen. Alexander mis
stated facts in hisjcliarges against 3Ir.
Williamson and his reply to this gen
tleman answers the question most
plainly that he has not.
The published contract parades itself
a telling witness before 31 r. William
son with no mistaken accents, and to
all fair-minded men Gen. Alexander
lias more than substantiated his state
ment.

them.
There is fairness in the theory of
strikes, but often there is none in the
practice of them. The whole matter
settles down to this, when honest labor
is worth more than it receives, and
stubborn capitalists obstinately per
sist in refusing to pay full value for it
there surely.should be a remedy. La
bor should be a servant to capital, but
not a slave to it. There is no justice in
great monopolies and trusts dictating to
honest working men wirh the authroiry
ofatyranical monarch. Nor is their
on the other band any fairness in the
laboring men using the power of their
position to exact unreasonable demands
from tlieir employers simply because
they can. It is the trusts-and monopo
lies that have made labor organizations
necessary in America. “These trusts
and monopolies.” says the Nashville,
“are the children of protection, which
is therefore the enemy of labor and the
fruitful cause of strikes and other labor
disturbances which have become a
permanent part of the industrial situa
tion.”
T1IE SCHOOLS OP' ATHENS.
JUTE BAGGING.
In a recent issue The Banner exhib
ited in a lengthy article the promising
future of the schools of Athens, and
after interviewing the authorities Of
each institution gave the exact situa
tion of the outlook for the next season
of the University, the Lucy Cobb, the
Home School and 3Irs. Crawford’s
seminary, as well .as the public citj*
schools.
It is truly gratifying to see how
all of these schools are gaining in favor
not only in this vicinity of the State,
hut in this section of the South.
The University will open up in the
one hundredth year of its age with a
larger attendance than for many years
of its past history. It has, under the
untiring and competent manipulations
of Chancellor Boggs, regained its
former prestige and the hope has re
vived that it will become an institution
foremost on the list of Southern Uni
versities.
The Lucy Cobh Institute was never
in a more promising condition nor was
there ever a brighter outlook for every
institution of learning in Athens than
they experience today.
This is due to several reasons. The
general infusion of a desire for higher
education in Georgia has caused much
of the promised prosperity to our
schools.
The superior advantages cf the srficcL,
of Classic Athens are great attractions,
and they are almost universally granted
to lie the best of the State.
With a good corps of instructors, good
grincipals, good advantages of gaining
knowledge, a good climate, a good city
and good society there is no reason why
the schools of Athens shouldn’t pros
per, and it is but another proof of the
“eternal fitness of things” that they
do.
In another column we publish an in
terview with 3Ir. Wheeler, a large
manufacturer of jute bagging, that our
agricultural friends may hear the other
side of the case and know exactly what
to depend upon. Mr. Whkklkr appears
honest and sincere in his statements,
hut then it must he remembered that it
is to his pecuniary interest to make his
side as bright as possible. That the boy
cott instituted by the cotton planters
against the jute trust is telling, we have
THE ABSURDITY OF EQUALITY.
No legislation can produce a state of
equality among unequal things.
This fact has been thoroughly demon
strated by the experience of our govern
ment very recently. There is nothing
so erroneous as the belief that civil
equality and civil liberty can exist in
the United States with the different
elements that go to make up our popu
lation. It is this way in every other
only to refer to the reduced" price at countr >'’ UU<1 uuless a11 ulcn "* re of thc
which their bagging is offered this year
over that demanded last season. This
fight by the farmers has already lowered
the sights of the jute men several de
grees, and we believe has taught all
such combinations a good lesson. The
Alliance has right and justice on their
side, anti we believe will triumph in the
end, although it may take several years
to make victory complete.
STRIKES AND LABOR UNIONS
1 he question of labor strikes lias
again been brought before tiie Ameri
can people by recent movements in the
laboring world, and again the journals
are pouring out their opinions as to
the right or wrong, the practicability
or the impracticability of these strikes.
i here never will perhaps be a satis
factory settlement of the question, and
strikes and boycotts will continue so
long as capital and labor contend with
each other in the onward march of
national progress.
Strikes for the most part have been
fai lines; lor in almost ever/ instance
the striking men have had their places
filled with laborers at even smaller
wages than had caused them to strike.
lhis xesult is disastrous to the work
ingmen themselves and really is a boon
for their employers. The wage-workers
obtain the very opposite result they
aimed at and reap from thoir strikes a
total loss of their employment. They
find too late that they have cut off their
noses to spite their faces.
Bu t yet, it must not he concluded that
this is the inevitable and invariable re

half cocked with great blow' and hustle.
The State.Olections are the present
field for action and the most certair.
By carrying them the Democratic
party will gain great power, and the
next election will show it.
THE SOBER SECOND THOUQHT.
The agricultural convention, at Oe-
dartown yesterday, by a vote of SI to 70
reconsidered the action recommending
the passage of the Olive bill which had
been taken on the previous day. We
understand that the vote on the first
day was taken only by the sound, and,
therefore, it is doubtful whether there
ever was a majority in favor of the bill.
Be that as it may, the convention after
full discussion and deliberate consider
ation reconsiders the favorable recom
mendation. This last action is in ac
cordance with the sentiment of the
state. The great muss of the people are
opposed to the Olive bill. They do not
want it, and this fact hpcomes plainer
every day. No man alive canwiow be
found who will say that he favors it in
the shape in which it \\Tis first intro
duced. Notone. Mr. Olive himself,
if asked, would say it needed amend
ment. Even as amended, the number
of those who favor it is growing “small
by degrees and beautifully less.” In
six months from this date it will be dif
ficult to find anybody who favored it.
Affidavits, will be in order exculpating
would-be political leaders from the
charge of having supported it. People
will look back at it and wonder how it
was possible that such a wild aud reck
less measure ever could have received
any notice or attention, much less sup
port. But it is gathered to its fathers,
and in a short time its fathers, politic
ally speaking, will .be with it. They
can never lead the people of Georgia
until they abandon their present meth
ods. There must be wisdom, justice and
moderation in a measure to commend it
to the mass of thc people of this state.
Extreme and violent notion is not to
their taste. The sober second thought
of the agricultural convention at Ce-
dartown is but a reflex of thc sober sec
ond thought of the people generally.
Steps will now be taken by the leg
islature to insure obedience to the con
stitution. Some law, moderate, and at
the same time effective, will be passed.
But we will hear no more of forfeiting
charters and allowing a small minority
of the stockholders to control the prop
erty of the majority. Those provisions
will never be resurrected. They were
the Olive bill. Without these two feat
ures A was meaningless.
THE NEGRO AND THE NORTH.
same standard of mental, moral and
physical capacities, we fail to sec h*w
such terms as these could exist any
where except in theory.
Here in America, with the two races,
one so infinitely above the other in
every point, we can’t understand how
some would-be patriots can cry out
“civil liberty and civil equality,” when
the fact is plain that no legislation ever
has brought the two races anyways to
wards a level.
The recent experiences of the negro
as a juror in the McDow trial, and in
other caees of equal importance, as well
as the incidents in Atlanta over the
postoffice appointment indicate very
clearly that there is no force in legisla
tion that would tend to bring about
equality between these two classes of
citizens..
“All human society,” says Prof.
Summer, settles down into two chief
grades, those who lead or rule, and
those who serve or follow” This point
has long since been reached In the
United States, and it is foolish to argue
the question as to which is the class to
rule, and which the one to follow.
That question has been settled long
since.
which 'were so glaringly displayed in the
Olive bill, thc forfeiture of charters ap
pointment of receivers and supplanting
majority rule with minority rule. Per
haps so unique and original a measure
as the late Olive bill was never before
seriously considered in any legislative
body. Certainly it never was iu this
State. A forfeiture feature was pro
posed in the connection which formed
the present constitution, hut it was
overwhelmingly voted down and its au
thor did not ask a division. The present
constitution is strong enough, and if
the committee will present a hill which
will conform to it they will begefit

is a blood or constitutional disease, and
in order to cure it you have to take in

Some Northern newspapers, we are
very sorry to note, are scribbling them
selves into a hopeless case of lunacy
about the recent row over the Atlanta
post-office affairs.
This is in had taste. The Northern
papers that have blamed the white peo
ple of Atlanta for their honest indigna
tion at the appointment of a burly ne
gro to an office in which he would boss
a white srirl, should he ashamed of
themselves for it. It would he honester
if those journals would frankly ac
knowledge their appreciation of the
Atlantians for their revolt against such
a movement, for they know they would
have done the very same thing under
those circumstances.
It is high time the Northern sympa
thy tor the negro was being shown up
in its true light. It is nothing but
hypocrisy and gas. After all of the
sympathy so tenderly expressed, we
find that the negro at tlic North is
treated much rougher than at the South
and they are never promoted to higher
duties than they are here as citizens.
Negroes don’t like the North, and
they never go there as emigrants. This
is a significant fact. They ave never
invited, and they are coming to the
realization every day that the Northern
sympathy with them is a soap bubble
affair.
The sooner the negroes reconcile
themselves to the fact—the God given
fact—that this k* a white man’s gov
ernment, and abide by the decree, just
so much sooner will they consult their
own interests and that of tlieir white
friends.
