Mr. Olive will admit that all of Ida hopes and work arc centred on car rying Oconee county—and even if he auecceds„it will only give him ten votaa.

OLIVE. We learn that certain parties are endeavoring to make capital of the ®biry that Tiik Banner has waged a personal and abusive tight against Mr. Olive, in his race for congress. J Ids charge we deny in toto, and we Believe that even Mr. Olive himself vv ill hear us out in the statement that ri "t a line has ever entered our edi l " r >al columns hut was legitimate a, *d proper. One communication and 0:10 ‘sttrview -for which we are in no banner responsible—appeared ' mt a8 Mr. Olivo and his friends well know, we closed our columns against SU( 1* articles, and refused to publish ( "■uinuuications that might have in jared and mortified him.

All the abuse and *rsonalities indulged io came from e livo side, and this the gentle* For a week past, Chief Oliver has sta tioned men in front of the doors of tire drug stores in Athens holdin&n.lice use from the city to sell liquor for medici nal purposes, and the name of every customer that enters the rear room is taken, and he will besummonod before the Mayor’s Court on Monday next as a vvltness. A large number of leading citizens are thus enrolled. Public oj.in ion differs as to whether a conviction can be made against these drugstores. While they are licensed by our council to sell spirits ‘‘for modiciual purposes,” it is asserted that tho burthen of proof will fall upon the city to show whether or not the parties wore actually In reed ol stimulants. There are regular phy sicians employed in these drug stores, and it is their business to prescribe. ’ Capt. Oliver was seen by a Bannbh reporter, ar.d this ollicer stated that he had positive evidence to mako a number of convictions; that men were readv to swear that they bought both liquor and beer without oven consultation with a doctor. Tho Chief was asked why ho did not raid the blind tigers as woll as the drug stores. He replied that ho would first see what could be done with the drug stores be fore tackling the smaller dealers. A gentleman who hat one of the liq uor licenses from the city says this sys tem of spies placed by the police at hi* door is seriously affecting his business, as parties will not even enter to buy drugs or other articles not spirits, when they sac liable to be summoned before a court sis witnesses. So soon as the eases are tried, he will bring a suit against the city for damages done hi-- business by it's officers. Drug stores cannot be termed “blind tigers,” n» they hold a license from tho city to tell and it is a recognized fact that they have liquor and beer on salo. This druggist, says if the city desires to know whether or nut ho is complying with the law, let a detective bo employed to watch him, and not break down his business by driving customers from his store with a spy stationed in front to takedown every than that enters. Sev eral parties, ho says, who wanted medi cine, went elsew here, lt*L they he sum moned as witnesses. Clarke county has declared iu favor of prohibition, and at tho last election the people again sustained it. Wo be lieve that this system of licensing drug stores to sell liquor is doing a great deal to break down the enforuerneiT. of the law. it legalizes the traflie, and we doubt if a conviction can be made, \\ here a license is thus granted. Let us have our local hill amended so as to establish a dispensatory in Athens, patterned after the otto in Oglethorpe county. Then let the city refuse to grant licenses, and break up the blind tigers at any cost. So long as a d; ug store holds a license from the city, they can sell, and we believe the courts will sustain them. There is no doubt about the people of Clarke favoring prohibition by a de cided majority, as evidenced by the re sult of the last election. Their v ill should be law, and no stumbling-block should be placed in their way. When these drug store licenses were issued it was understood that the money was taken in exchange for the privilege of selling liquor; and any reasoning man well knows that it would be a losing business for a doctor to pay ids govern ment, state, county and city licenses just for the privilege of selling liquor in Athens for medicinal purposes. CULMINATED IN A MURDER. FOUR WOMEN OF A FAMILY ELOPE WITH FOUR ITALIAN LABORERS. The Husband of one of Them Pursues the Elopers and Is Fatally Shot. Hpecial Telegram to Tits IUnnkb. Wilkesuarkb, August IS. A sensational elopement took place at Ilaneock, N. Y. late Friday night. The affair culminated in a murder twelve hours latci. Mrs. Benjamin Hallstcad, and her sister, Mrs. Peter Lavan, with another member of the farnilv were, un til Friday evening, respected residents of the town of Ilancook. Mrs. Benjamin HalDtcad kept a small store and had for her customers many of the Italian laborers who are employed in the construction of a now railroad. An Italian named Joseph Murray transactor! considerable busi ness with Mrs. Ilallstead. Ife was a kind of a leader for his countrymen and transacted nearly all their business. Friday was pay day on the rnilroad and Murray received over $500 in cash. Hi.oran wrrn tiik itai.ian. lie suggested to Mrs. Ilallstead that she elope with him, but the woman would not hear of it. Ho made tho same proposition to Mrs. I<ovan, who expressed her willingness to accompany tho Italian to Buffalo. Mrs. Jxjvan thought it would be a great idoa if tho other members of her faintly could go on a jannt. Murray said ho could got all the mon wanted if they would con sent to go. A hasty conference was thou held, and all the Hnllsteads agreed to eloim. Murray went out to tno works and brought hack with him three country men. Tho party packed some baggage hurriedly and took the first train out of tho placo. Murray and Mrs. Lovnn stopped off at Sterling, where they put up at the house of a friond for the night. TUACKBD BY Tint nUSBAND. Mrs. Lovnn’s husband returned home from work early yesterday morning, and when bo heard of his wife’s doing’s ho purchased a revolver and startod in pursuit of tho runaway couple. lie got track of them at Sterling, nnd going to tho house whore tlroj were stopping, demanded admission, but was refused.

Tho unfortunate man died an hour afterwards. Tho murderer was arrested and is now in tho Hones- dale jail. Mrs. Lovcn has live children. \V hen she eloped she took liur youngest child with her. Thoro is great excite ment over the allair, and Murray is threatened with lynch law. The where abouts of tho other elopers is unknown.

One of our largest contractors was seen by a Ban'nkr representative, nd asked about the building outlook for our city, lie replied: “There is a great deal of work nov to do iu Athens—more than I ever knew before—but we are. all behind, owing to a scarcity of mechanics. There seems to 1h) a building boom all over tho South, and more work to do, than ? iun to do it. I urn offering $3.20 a day to bricklayers, and can’t liiro them at even that price. Common plasters, that were a short time since paid $1.60, aro now getting $2.50. The wages of car penters have gone up in proportion. If there is an Idle mechanic in Athens it ia his own fault. Within the next twelve months, when the building boom st.-kes Athens in earnest, wo will have to *end North for skilled workmen, as tho nip ply in tho Soutli is exhausted. Our prices are too Itw in Athens for tho prices we pay for work, as there i- no city in the State where houses are erected so cheap. We need nioro h> uses for new citizens, but it seems impossi ble to get them limit.” Every manufactory in Athens is now run at its utmost capacity, and there was never such a dawn of prosperity upon our people.

A Girl Throws Arsenic In the Coffee Pot. Special by Now* Telegram Association. Bai-timokk, August TJ.—Mary Metz- dorf confessed this morning to having poisoned Miss Louise Broadwatera, her liule brother James ami her mother, Catherine. She said she put arsenic in tho coffee pot with that intention, but did it “just for fun.” Though not quite seventeen years old, she bears herself like a hardened criminal. Miss Broad- waters died almost immediately after drinking of the coffee, and James, her six-year-old brother, expired last night. Mrs. Metzdorf, tho third victim, is still in a critical condition. She was slightly improved yesterday, but the death of the boy caused a relapse. It is now prob able that she will also die. Tho coro ner’s jury this morning came to the conclusion that the girl was guilty, though, according to Maryland law, her confession eannot ho accepted as evidence, the court of appeals having recently decided that a confession to a police officer by a prisoner while con- lined is presumably obtained by other than fair means, nnd is therefore not valid. Aside front this, howovor, the evidence against her is conclusive, and conviction almost certain. An Awful Sore Limb. Flesh a Mass of Disease. Condition Hopeless. Cured by the Cuticurn Remedies.
