IHE ATHENS BANNER TUESDAY IORNING NOVEMBER 25 1890
COV- CORDON’S ELECTION.
Thb Banner editor fought the
election of Gov. John B. Gordon to
the last ditch, and exhausted his
last cartridge. We met the enemy
and we are bie’n. We were not
prompted by selfish or vindictive
motives in our opposition to G »v.
Gordon, but solely actuated by an
honest and earnest desire to uphold
the principles of the organization of
our farmers. We return to our post
of duty today with clean hands and
a consciousness that we have done
all and everything in our power to
promote the interest of the honored
class whose cause wc have espoused.
That the election of Gov. Gordon
will be recognized as a defeat to the
Alliance, every sane man recognizes
and must confess.
It is needless to grieve over spilt*
milk, or attempt to explain the cause
of our defeat. We were outvoted in
a fair and manly contest, and so ac
cept the result as a good democrat
and in kindly spirit.
With the exception of Messrs.
Witcher and Faust of Oglethorpe,
Morton, of Clarke, and Burney, of
Morgan, every representative and
senator from our section of the State,
over 21 in number, stood by the po
sition taken by The Athens Banner,
and on a joint ballot, only lacked
four votes of a victory. At the first
count the house went against Gor
don, but changes were made that
secured his election.
It was a neck-to-neck contest, and
neither side has much to boast of.
When pitted against such a popular
and magnetic man as John B. Gor
don. and without a leader or candi
date to consolidate the opposition,
eveu this defeat for the Alliance was
a surprising victory.
While TnE Banner was defeated
in its opposition to Gov. Gordon for
the Senate, with such an outspoken
verdict in defense of its po.-ition as
was rendered today—not only in the
counties around us, but throughout
the State—our cause—while it has
met with tempory defeat—atill sur
vives in Georgia.
Let our Alliance friends not be«
come discouraged over their first de
feat. Let the temporary rebuke to
your platform and principles only
nerve your arms and strengthen your
hearts to fight the haider and more
earnestly in the future.
There is no humiliation in being
defeated bj’ such a man as John B.
Gordon, and the large vote polled
against him was the strongest en
dorsement that could possibly be
given to The Banner’s position.
forcing them to transport freight and
passengers at less than actual cost.
But the intelligent people of Georgia
are learning that thi9 railroad agita
tion is but a bugbear to direct the
attention of the people from more
important issues, and to further the
ends of ambitious men.
This fact was demonstrated in that
Newton count}’ election on Saturday
last Mr. Emmett s'ated in his
speech that every vote polled, for
him—whose name had been primed
on the tickets—meant a vote for Mr.
Pal. C.dboun. And yet Gov. Gor
don was defeated by over 125 vo:e*—
every opposing ballot being from a
a farmer, as the towns were almost a
unit for Gordon. This election was
called by a relative of Gov. Gordor'
to show that the people would not
endorse the nomination of a railroad
lawyer ; but it proved a boomerang
for their candidate, and was a grand
triumph for Mr. Calhoun.
Tue politicians will now have to
hunt up another dodge to prejudice
the people.* as they vindicated the
verdict of the Alliance caucus that
nominated Mr. Calhoun.

THE FINANCIAL CRASH.
One of the worst financial panics
ever known in the history of the
country was the failure of Overeud,
Gurney & Co in 1866 with liabilities
of fourteen millions sterling, and the
effects of it are still vivid iu the pub
lie mind.
And lhose terrible consequences
came very near being repeated when
the cable.flashed acr >ss from Eng
land the news that Baring Bros &
Co., perhaps the greatest banking
house iu the world, was unable to
meet its engagements.
The news caused a mad scramble
to sell stock on Wall Street, and men
of money lost their hold on millions.
Prices tumbled down, and «vciybody
made a frantic rush to sell.
It was all caused by millions of
English money being tightly tied up
in Argentine securities, and when
the overthrow of the government
was consummated they declined in
value. But for the timely aid of the
Bank of Euglnud and several private
bankers in raising a guarantee fund
of fifty moliion of dollars, there is
no telling what might have been the
result in financial circles. Under
this reassuring news, and on account
of the standing ot the parties mako
ing up the guaiantee fund, s’-ucku
recovered sharply and on the state
ment of pitv banks in New Ytrk,
showing a large increase of leservts
the recovery quickened into a sharp
rally, in which a considerable part
of the earlier decline was quickly re
gained. A panic has evidently been
averted in money circles, and it looks
somewhat brighter thaD a few days
must go!
Sometime in the hazy past we had a
dog ordinance!
It has mysteriously disappeared !
Whither it went no man knowetn !
A search warrant is to be taken out to
find it!
Sensational developments are ex
pected !
It is feared that the ordinance has
been muzzled!
Yesterday seven ownerless vagrant
canines that promenade our streets with
nauseating persistency paid the penalty
for their rashness and bit the dust !
This is but the first note of alarm and
the war is just on. Our eitiz-.us have
reached a point where for bearance has j
ceased to be a virtue and have express
ed a determination to participate in the
massacre of dogs that have been declar
ed on.
It has become a matter of necessity, a
matter of life and death, a matter of
hydrophobia or no hydrophobia, a mat
ter of keeping a hole skin or masquerad
ing! y° llr bones under a ragged one. If
w’e value human lifts less than we do
snarling, snapping, guaiit, vicious, vag
rant dogs, then let us harbor them, and
establish a hospital for hydrophobic
patients.
Let us import Pasteur from France,
if we are resolved to encourage hydro
phobia. It is true that from a scientific
standpoint hydrophobic, investigations
are useful but some how or the other we
don’t at all fancy being a candidate
for this dubious honor.
So let us encourage the good work,
until we can walk tne streets of Athens
with some degree of security, at least
we should thin out the ranks of the
enemy to such an extent that we can
run the gauntiet at night with hopes of
getting by unscathed.
This is the question of the hour,
fraught with importance to every iu
dividual in the city.
1 he man who, with malice prepense,
destroys the life of a suspicious mem
ber of the canine stripe is a public ben
efactor and nothing more.
On with the good work, and let us
make a clean sweep.
A warrant was sworn out against
one T H. Muller yesterday, charging
him with forgery and theft.
It seems that Mulb-r was an agent for
a nursery company at the North, and
wgs employed by them to take orders.
He hails from Rome, Georgia, and
belonged to the ^Mongolian type, but
his black skin was emblematic of his
shady character.
This gent prepossessed with the idea
that his position could be perverted
into quite a profitable one for himself,
without considering the prior claims of
the company employing him, began
taking orders.
He was unusually successful and got or
ders from some of our best citizens, he,
of course, pocketing the money.
Now we come to the rascality of the
ease. Instead of sending on a correct,
authentic list he forwarded a bogus one
containing forged signatures, and re
served the money for himself

This was a shrewd, sharo scheme, aud
one that was cunningly worked.

feloniously acquired was large.

THE ALLIANCE AND THEIR FRIENDS.
The victory of Calhoun in Newton
county clearly proves that the far
mers are true to their friends, end
are ready to answer whenever called
upon. Mr. Albert Cox delivered at
Covington one of the finest address
es we ever listened to, in support of
Gov. G >rdoD, and was followed by
the inimitable Emmett Womack, bis
peer in eloquence, and the superior
of any man in Georgia in sarcasm
and wit. Mr. Womack was the first
lawyer in Georgia who came to the
defence of the Alliance, and has
stood by the farmers in all of their
battles. So wben the votes were
polled, the result showed a great
victory for Calhoun and Womack.
Those who assert that Alliance
men are ungrateful, do not know this
noble organization. They are as
true to their friends as the needle to
the pole, and are ever ready to rally
to their defence and support. These
farmers know their true Irieods from
false ones. The men who came to
the defence of the Alliance move

its members in all of their fights—as

Mr. Ed. Ritch, an Old Athens Boy
Dies Suddenly In Taylor County,
Texas.
After a lingering illness of over two
weeks, Edward Linton Ritch quietly
breathed his last at his residence oil the
morning of Nov. 1st. F,»r some time
he had been :lie victim of typhoid fever,
which had laid fearful hold 911 him even
before he abandoned his busiuess and
went to bed:
The deceased was born at Athens,
Clarke eounty, Georgia, in I860. His
father was Jerry E. Ritch and his
mother Jane N. Ritch. He came to Abi
lene, Tex., in the early part of l:-8 >,
and shortly after his arrival from his
native state married Miss Jessie
Daucey, of Mississippi. By this mar
riage he leaves two bright, promLing
little children, who will # never know
the caresses of a fond father.
Edward Linton Ritch was a progress
ive business man and a most excellent
citizen, public spirited and of indexible
integrity. The graces of his character
as son, husband, father and brother, in
the interior circles of his home, the sa
cred ne-s of the grief which his loss has
ie-'t behind, forbids us to enlarge. His
laracter, like his appearance, was most
engaging Hright and joyous in as
pect and disposition, mere was an
iagenousness and modesty in his
demeanor, joined to a quiet manli
ness of bearing, which impressed all.
E. L. Ritch was one of the truest men
to those to whom he^ave his friendship.
Let him but be convinced of the call of
duty and his efforts to accomplish it
were ascertain as the rising sun, wheth
er the task was easy and pleasant or ar
duous and repulsive. His impulses
were all pure and noble. His comrades
in arms, the Abilene L'ght Infantry,
feel most intensely the bereavement oc
casioned by the death of their officer,
friend and benef-.ctor, and many were
the manly tears shed when his llower-
bedecktd grave closed trom them his
sight forever,
Our people generally mourn with the
bereaved - in Texas and Georgia.—Tay

This should not be allowed. What
lias become of our ordinance forcing
owners of dugs to tag them.
It does seem that the city might af
ford some protection to our citizens aud
abate this dangerous nuisance Every
darkey iu Athens, with the wolf invad
ing tlie threshold sparcety feeds a hun
gry brood of famished nogs who, pro
pelled by the gnawings of hunger in
vade our streets after nark, placing tne
lives of human beings iu jdepardy.
Who knows when LHcse creatures
may he attacked by rabies? Enforce
the ordinance and this pest will at least
be considerably diminished and the dan
ger partially removed. Why are the
dogs allowed to go on our streets un
tagged, in direct violation of a law ?
What reason can be given? it is a
crying shame aud the speedier it is
remedied the more secure will our »iti-
zens feel, if men who own and harbor
absolutely worthless dogs could have
witnessed the poignant suffering of
little Clarke Hilsmari, they would obey
the dictates of sensibility and start as
dog massacre. The city of Athens
should not weigh the lives of valuaole
citizens in the same balance with worth
less tlogs.
We are astonished that this plague
has endured as long as it has, and un
less a war of extermin ttion commences,
the offense of carrying concealed wea
pons wilt multiply.
Don’t allow another day to break
upon Athens without heroic measures
being enforced to destroy this evil.
The awful admonition given should
not be disregarded. Suppose it should
have been your child who was the vic
tim of hydrophobia, imagine your feel
ings.
A young life sacrificed, a home robed
in sorrow, a mother’s agony, a father’s
grief, and a sister’s life saddened, all
caused by a stray, worthless, rabid ani
mal that wasn’t v/orth the powder and
shot that it would take to kill him. We
believe that this evilwill be rectified,
ourcitiz ns having awakeued to us im
perative necessity, and are clamoring
for it. Let it be quickly done before
other victims are added, may be your
child or some friend of yours.
Exterminate, shoot, destroy, but abate
this nuisance by all means, tolerate it
not for one day longer, but issue the
mandate empowering the police to act
as agents in securing this end.
Let our council consider the necessity
of a dog cart, which will prove itself a
potent factor in securing this end. The
time is ripe for action, and delay is dan
gerous.
