THE ATHENS BANNE1I = TUESDAY MOBNING DECEMBER 26, 1890.
THE CHANCE OF SEASONS.
“The heated campaign just ended
wan only equalled by the one of four
years ago, when Gov. Gordon vas
again a candidate. The changes
that have taken place in that time
are well worth noting.
“Opposed to Gov. Gordon and fa~
voring Mr. Bacon were the Augusta
Chronicle, Mucon Telegraph, SavaD-
nah News, Albany Ne^s, Columbus
KnquirersSun, Athens Bauner, Au
gusta News, and nearly three-fourths
of the weekly press. Favoring Gov.
Gordon was the Atlanta Constitution
alone of the more prominent dailies,
and a few weekly papers.
“After four years behold the
change ! Gov. Gordon had served
two terms as Governor, and was a
candidate for Senator. In favor of
his election to the Senate we find
many of his old opponents—the Au-
gusta Chronicle, Macon Telegraph,
Savannah News, while the Constitu
tion changed the other way, and
while it did not at first directly op
pose Gordon, it did not favor his
canvass.
*• What caused these chaDgesJ?
Was it because the papers support
ing Gordon believed the interests of
the State would be best served by
Gordon, or were they gradually
forced to Gordon by their opposition
to the new organization known as
the Farmers’ Alliance ? It will be
observed that every paper mentioned
fought what was known as Alliance
candidate, for congress, and were
defeated in three out of the five dis
tricts.
“ The old saw, ‘polities make queer
bed-fellows.’ was never better illus
trated than in the late Senatorial
campaign when men who had op
posed Gordon all tbeir lives, and in
deed, up to within a few daypof the
election, rushed to Atlania to work
for their old opponent, called there
by some irresistible power—no one
knows what.
* The Recorder is perfectly satis
fied with Gordon’s election, as it bad
no candidate—barring the claims of
its distinguished townsman—but as
we look hack over the record of four
years we are led to the belief that it
was the fear of a new power coming
into control in Georgia that induced
many old and wary politicians to rush
to the aid of their old foe, more than
any cate they may have had as to
the best interests of the State.”
We clip the above from the Amer-
icus Recorder, and its editorial hits
the nail squarely on the head. We
do not see wuat Gen. Gordon has
done to create such a revolutionizing
change in the sentiment of these pa
pers. They opposed his election as
Governor, because he resigned his
seat in the Senate in a manner that
left ground for the belief that it was
a trade. Now these same papers are
rejoicing over his election to the very
office they openly accused him of
selling out. Why, the Augusta
Chronicle, four years ago, in its at
tack on Gen. Gordon, actually ac
cused him of stealing a mule. Now
that same paper is most fulsome in
its plandits of oar new Senator.
When Gen. Gordon made the race
tor Governor, we opposed him be
cause we believed him to be the can
didate of the Atlanta ring. In his
recent Senatorial contest, we op»
posed him because he was the ac
cepted candidate of the enemies of
the Alliance, and had repudiated the
principles of that organization.
We have always recognized the
fact that Georgia owes Gen. Gordon
a lasting debt of gratitude for his
military services, and we never be
lieved him to be a venal or corrupt
man. But be is as guileless as a
child about business matters ; and
became the easy dupe of sharpers,
who speculated upon his confidence
and his honored name.
Time has established the wisdom
of The Banner’s position. The very
papers that are now crowing over
Gen. Gordon’s election to the Senate,
also worked for the destruction of
the Alliance. Well, Gen. Gordon
and his friends may have buried the
Alliance temporarily; but like a
grain of corn placed in the ground,
it will sprout again next spring, and
hear an increased harvest.
A MONSTER FEDERATION OF FARM
ERS.
The farmer has not yet been given
full credit, North, South, Fast or
West, for the potency of his influ
ence and vote in the recent cam
paign. He accomplished far more
within the two parties than has been
made to appear. He has toppled
dominant parties from control in
several States; he has made sure of
a respectable farmer representation
is both Houses of the next Congress,
but that is all of less significance
than the local revolutions he has
wrought in a thousand minor politi
cal districts where a change of con
trol has come with all the unexpect
edness of an earthquake.
Nor is the significance of the elec
tion purely political. It means the
rapid accomplishment of a purpose,
which all the national farmers’ or
ganizations have been approaching,
which has but recently been stated
distinctly—the federation of the far
mers in America in a gigantio org&s.
ization, to bo known, perhaps, as th4
American Association of Agricultu
re Organizations. The purposes of
this movement are social, economi
cal and educational, as well as politi
cal. The result of the recent elec
tion is accepted as demonstrating
the feasibility of great -practical
combinations of wealth producers
even when the individual members
are widely scattered Accordingly,
the effort will be made at once to
bring together the agriculturists of
the country in a great defensive and
perhaps offensive league. Already
the. leaders of all the great farmers’
organizations have declared in favor
of it, and the project will be the most
important which will come before
the national congress of the Farm
ers’ Alliance, whieh convenes Dec.
2, at Ocala, Fla. That the Alliance
practically controls several of the
new State Governments there is no
doubt. Only in South Carolina, to
be sure, did they elect their Govern
or ou a distinct Ailianae ticket, but
they controlled the nominating con
ventions in other States, and so vir
tually named the new Governments.
In yet other States legislatures are
controlled by the Alliance where the
executive officers are not. The Al
liance leaders say they will be able
to elect United States Senators from
North Carolina, South Carolina, Ala
bama and Kansas. Tuey have fail
ed in Georgia. In the next House
the strength of the farmers has been
variously estimated. The ollioers of
the Alliance say that thirty-five
members elected are actually unem-
bersof their order, and that others,
enough to make fully fifty in all, are
distinctly Alliancemen. indeed they
declare that the country will be as
tonished by the strength of the sup
port which Alliance measures will
get in the Fifty-second Congress.-
They do not, however, make public
the names of their supporters.
The Democratic party will have
nothing to fear from this new move
ment. The principles of the Alli
ance and the Democracy are one and
the same, and they will work togeth
er in uuity and harmony. A inan
cannot be a good Alliauceman unless
he is a good Democrat, or a consist
ent Democrat unless he is in full
sympathy with the Farmers’ Alii*
ance.
The farmers’ movement is strong"
er to-day than it ever was before,
and the papers now engaged in wri
ting the obituary of the Alliance will
discover that, they have on their
hands the livest corpse iu Georgia.
HILL AND CRAY IN 1892.
It is now conceded that the demo
cratic party will be restored to power
in 1892—that is, if we use our recent
victories with wisdom, justice and
moderation.
Grover Cleveland is greatly beloved
and honored by the people of the
South, for a grander and purer man
never occupied the Presidential chair.
He is also the leader in the fight
against our iniquitous and oppres
sive protective tariff system ; and to
Mr. Cleveland, in a large measure
is due our recent triumphs ail over
the Union. *
But we do not believe that Mr.
Cleveland is the man to lead the
democratic party to victory in 1892,
Hie policy, in regard to republican
appointees, was too conciliatory,
while his veto of the silver bill pre.~
eludes all hope of bis carrying the
newly admitted mineing States.
The democracy must find a man
more imbued with modern political
ideas, and who can gather into its
fold all disaffected elements.
With all the lights now before ns,
we believe that Hill, of New York,
and Gray, of Indi&Da, is the strong
est ticket our party can put into the
field, and their nomination means an
assured victory for us. They insure
us the pivotal States of New York
and Indiana, which means a triumph
for democracy.
We must not, at the next National
contest, swap a certainty for a sent!
meat. Had the Democratic Conven
tion nominated Gray instead of
Thurmond, we believe that we would
have held our owo ; but instead of
this, a man was selected for the sec
ond place on the ticket who could not
even carry his own State, and so lost
us the election.
There is time enough for Mr.
Cleveland. He is yet in the prime
of life, and should be content to re
main the first American citizen, an;
til his party is in a position to dic~
tate terms to its enemies, when Grow
ver Cleveland will be recalled from
his retirement to again head the Na
tional Democratic ticket.
House, and at last squeezed through
by the change of two votes before
the result could be declared—a re
publican’s and a negro’s—should be
a vindication and triumph sufficient
for the farmers. It was a drawn
battle, and neither side has much
cause for elatiou.
It has always been the policy of
The Banner, when a political con
test was over—it mattered not wheth
er our paper was successful or not—
to accept the verdict, and try and
bury in the grave of oblivion all un
pleasant thoughts. Where a fight is
between democrats and in the demo
cratic ranks, it is wrong and unwise
for one wing of the party to rejoice
over the other. Nothing can be
gained by such a course, except to
create division and strife.
The man who thinks the election
of Gov. Gordon to the Senate means
the disintegration of the Alliance
movement will find himself sadly
mistaken. If this organization had
the power to force Gov Gordou to
repudiate his published speeches,and
finally to defeat him in the House of
Representatives—in defiance of the
votes of the Jeffersonian democrats
of Floyd—it will take more than this
one defeat to destroy its strength in
Georgia.
NOW AND THEN-
“What queer changes time brings
about. Only a little more than four
years ago Gen. John B. Gordon tried
to make a speech in Augusta as a
candidate for governor. He was
greeted by a howling mob which re
fused even to let him explain where
he stood. Augusta went wild over
the election of this same man to the
United States Senate, and last Friday
night gave him the grandest ovation
ever accorded to a citiz :-n of Georgia
or ;iny other State within her limits.”
—Macon Telegraph.
The reason for this change in sen
timent is easily explained, and is not
restricted to Augusta. Four years
ago the farmers accepted Gen. Gor
don as their candidate, while the pol
iticians and cities rallied around
Major Bacon. Now there is a great
flop in the political situation, and
when the Alliance opposed Gov.
Gordon as Senator, the other side at
once espoused his cause. t It is not
that Augusta loves Gordou more,
but the Alliance less.

THE SENATORIAL CONTEST.
We do not see what ean he gained
by certain papers * trying to keep
alive the old issues engendered in the
late Senatorial contest. Neither side
has much to boast of, and therefore
the wisest course would be to let the
matter rest) where it is, that the
issue between Georgia democrats
may right themselves. Gov. Gordon
is elected to the United States Sen
ate, ' and that should satisfy his
friends. That he was forced to make
great concessions to the Alliance,
and was, after all, defeated in the
The Cotton Crop.—Our farmers the
taking advantage of this fine spell arc
weather to get out their cotton, and of
field- are fast becoming bleak and bare.
An unusual fine yield will be.made, bur.
this is offset by inferior grade and low
prices. All the gins are pressed to their
utmost capacity, and only a small part
of the crop is as yet marketed.
Another Cotton Compress —We
learn there is a movement on foot among
our merchants to build another first-
class cotton compress, to be owned ex
clusively by the business men or Athens.
Foreign buyers can’t compete with the
gentlemen who control our compiesses,
but say if an independent one is built
that they will do business in our city.
It will cost about $35,000 to erect the
compress required, and it will doubtless
be ready for business by next fall.
A thens’Banking Facilities.—Three
grocery houses in Athens do two mil
lion dollars worth of business a year,
besides tne smaller firms. Then our
annual cotton crop requires a cap
ital of over $4,000,000 to move, while a
large tributary country depends on our
city for umiiey. And yet we have only
$500,000 banking capital to transact all
of this business. It should he at least
doubled.
A Bank Purchase.—We learn that
the new Savings bank has purchased of
Mrs. Bishop the store <m Broad street,
so long occupied by Mrs. T. A. Adams.
The old building will be demolished and
a handsome three story structure erect
ed it its stead. The bank will occupy
the first floor. This will be quite an
addition to Broad street.
Corner Broadband Lumpkin.—Mr.
T. L. Cantt, early next spring, will
move his house to the corner of Broad
and Lumpkin streets, and enlarge it to
eighteen or twenty rooms turning the
same out a first-class boasding house,
to rent. Beneath he will build two
nice brick stores, with iron fronts
and handsomely fitted up. The build
ing will be everbauled and put m thor
ough repair. He will wideu Lumpkin
street some eight or ten feet, and either
sell off or build stores on his remaining
lots.
Judge Cobb Reappointed.—Judge
Howell Cobb was reappointed by Gov
ernor Northen, judge of the city court,
for a term of four years. This appoint
ment has given perfect satisfaction, as
Judge Cobb has served the city* with
signal ability for the past twelve years
and strict impartiality and justice has
characterized all of his rulings.
Fine Hogs.—Mr. O’Shea, of Jackson
county, is the champion hog raiser of
Georgia. He keeps only fhe genuine
Poland China breed, and at one year
id thirteen days old, he has killed bogs
weighing 500 pounds. He. yesterday
brought in some fine soecimens. Mr.
O’Shea says his meat costs him but lit
tle as liis hogs fatten in the wheat [and
ppa fields.
THE LAST RITES.
THE REMAINS OF THE VENERABLE
PATRIARCH LAID TO REST.
A Touching Tribute From Rev. W. D.
Anderson—A Beautiful Analogy at
The Grave.
All that was mortal of the venerable
Dr. Andrew A. Lipscomb was laid be
neath the sod by the waters of the
' Oconee. The funeral exercises at the
church and grave were peculiarly in
teresting and impressive. The proces
sion was a long one and hundreds of
mourning friends paid the loving trib
ute of respect t> his mem try. The cas
ket was smothered with handsome floral
tokens, which were gracefully festooned
about the altar.
The pall bearers were Judge Howell
Cobb, Messrs. I). C. Barrow, E. I.
Smith, Gns Hull, E. R. Hodgson, Geo.
Mell, A. Griffith and VV. VV. Thomas.
The relatives of the deceased were
followed by the young ladies of the In
stitute and the young men of the Uni
versity. The exercises were opened
with a beautiful selection by the choir
which consisted of Misses Mell, Mrs. J.
W. Brumby, Mrs. H. H. Carlton and
Messrs. Layton and Haselton.
The 93rd Psalm was then read and
prayer was offered by Rev. C. W. Lane.
This prayer was a beautiful one; full of
tender pathos and gentle resignation.
Dr. Lane and Dr. Lipscomb were bos
om friends, and Dr. Lane deplored his
death as he would the death of a broth
er. “Jesus Lover of My Soul” was
now sung by the choir, ar.d when the
last notes died a" ay prayer was offered
by Rev. VV. D. Anderson.
After this prayer Mr. Anderson com
menced his remarks on the life and ser
vices of the illustrious dead.
He drew a beautiful and affecting
analogy between the life of Doctor
Lipscomb and incidents in the life of
the prophet Samuel. Mr. Anderson
no .v briefly sketched the life of the ven
erable form now clasped in the icy
bands of death.
He spoke of his fidelity, his trustful
ness, his gentleness, liis charity, his cul
ture, his broad-mindedness, liis lofty re
gard for woman, the Beatitude of his ex
istence and his sympathetic love for his
fellow-men. He dwelt with elo
quent pathos on the reli
gious phase of this sublime
character, of bis consecration to God,
bis unwavering trint in the promise of
our Saviour, and bis beautiful faith in a
realm, where sorrow will not trouble
nor anguish wring the heart.
Crowned with the beauty, the bright
ness, the mellowness of a surpassing
piety, lie was summoned home to share
the riuh rewards of those who have
Kept the faith. Many an eye in
that vast congregation moistened,
and many a heart throbbed to the muf-
fl-fi accents of sorrow, as they contem
plated these last impressive rites in the
memory of their venerable counsellor
and kindly monitor, wlio would never
'appear before tbym agiin in the flesh.
Mr. Anderson’s remarks were pecul
iarly fitting and appropriate, an elo
quent tribute of profound respect to
. this venerable man.
Dr. Boggs now offered up a prayer in
which he commended the relatives of
the beloved deceased to the tender mer
cies of a compassionate Cod, who will
minister consolation to their sorrow-
burdened souls.
The exercises were concluded at the
grave where “earth was consigned to
earth,” and the body of Andrew A.
Lipscomb was laid to away to aw.iit
the resurrection morn.
The entire community is plunged in
sorrow, and all feel as if they have been
bereaved of one near and dear to them.
Around the life of Dr. Lipscomb the
Christian grace has thrown a halo, a
halo that brightened into an incorrupt
ible erown which he will wear forever
in the glorious presence of that Saviour
whom he loved so well and served so
faithfully while on earth. His mission
on earth was a grand one, he grandly
fulfilled it, and has gone to the bright
realm beyond to reap an abundaut re
ward.
Burned to Death.
Special by News Telegram Association.
Columbus, Ind., Nov. 25.—Early this
morning at Franklin, some eighteen
miles north of this city, Homer, the 18-
year-old son of George Wagoner, a
highly respected citizen, who for some
time has been addicted to drink, went
to his home intoxicated. The young
man, when in this condition, seldom
went to his father’s residence, but
Blept in the barn, which is a large one.
When last seen he was entering the
barn and was smoking. Shortly after
this the barir was discovered in flames,
and burned *to the ground with its ef
fects. All efforts to extinguish the
flames failed and the body of the un
fortunate young man was not recovered,
but was consumed in the flames.
A Good Day’s Work.
Weakness of itself is not a disease.
It is however a most distressful symp
tom. Alas! how many wearily drag
themselves about, every effort giving
them distress, existing without any of
the pleasurable -sensations of robust
health. Are you in this condition?
Why? There is no excuse for feeling
mean and miserable. Remove the cause
of your distress, which undoubtedly is
a state of blood impurity and a disor
dered system. How? Why by doing
as others have done.
G. W. Chandler, Bed Fork, Ark.,
writes: “I was so weak that it was
only with great effort that I could do
anything. I used several bottles pf Bo
tanic Blood Balm, andean now do a
good day’s work.”
“Able to do a good tlay’s work!”
Is there not something sweet and re
freshing in that expression? Strength
to vigorously do this or that.’ Strength
tli at is onlv overcome by natural fatigue.
Strength that when expended, is by
rest and nature fully renewed. Such
will be your reward if you give B. B.
B. a trial. . . , _
H. B. Randolph, Brunswick, Ga.,
writes i iC I under the care of nine
different doctors, but not one did me
the good that Botanic Blood Balm has
dope me.”

Boston Capitalists on a Visit to Judge
W. B. Thomas.
We will give i he Banner readers an
import an. piece of news, if they will
solemnly promise not to smile derisive
ly, or ring a chestnut bell on us. We
are well aware of the fact that periodi
cally, for the last three years, the press
has delighted Athenians with the start-
liug information that “Judge Thomas
had about completed all arrangements
to extend his railroad to Knoxville, and
work would commence in the spring.”
The Banner, in its confiding inno-
cense, has located enough capitalists ou
Judge Thomas to eat him out of house
and home a dozen times over ; we have
started enough engineering corps out
from Tallulah Falls, to make the rail
road stakes between that point and
Knoxville as thick as quills upon a fret
ful porcupine; and enough votes have
been taken on an appropiation to this
line from North Carolina to start a pa
per mill on second hand ballots. Our
innocent readers would swallow all of
their stories as easily as a raw ovster,
only to have them warmed over and
served afresh when their patience be
gan to give way.
The Banner editor has been the vic
tim of many harmless jests at his faith
in the B. R. & A. One fellow suggest
ed that J udge Thomas use the name of
his road to splice out the extension ;
another wanted to know, wheu ihe lint-
got to Clayton, would it not be advisa
ble to call it “The North Pole and Pat-
igonia Railroad ?” a third remarked that
the rumbling heard last night up in the
mountains was the Judge blasting on
his extension.
But never for an instant have we lost
faith in the ultimate completion of
the B. R. & A. We knowj th» energy
and perseverance of W. B. Thomas, and
firmly believe that he will eventually
overcome all obstacles and build his
road.
For several days there has been a
company of Boston capitalists at the
Falls, with a view of furnishing Judge
Thomas all the money he needs to com
plete liis road to Knoxville. They
rode over the entire line, and are well
pleased. It is now thougt that the
long-looked-lor money will surely be
furnished,and “when spring-time comes
gentle Annie,” work on this great
Western link for our city will surely
begin.
A WOMAN STRANGELY LOST.
Wealthy Denver,Widow Disappears
Very Mysteriously.
Special by News Telegram Association.
Chicago, III., Nov. 25.—Mrs. Nellie
Trombly, of Denver, who has been in
Chicago for the past three weeks with
friends, has mvsteiiously disappeared.
Mrs. Trombly is a widow about twenty-,
eight years old, and is said to be
wealthy.
Wednesday afternoon a gentleman
called on her and was introduced to the
family with whom she was stopping as
Mr. Hollingsworth, of St. Paul. He
invited her to attend the opera. Thurs
day inorniug he again called for her
and they left the house together. Noth
ing has been seen or heard of Mrs. T.
since her departure. Mrs. Trombly had
no w’raps except a cape, and evidently
did not intend staying away any length
of time. She left at the bouse two
large trunks containing .'her dresses.
Her friends think she has been foully
dealt with to obtain the jewelry which
she wore, anfi,her money of which she
carried considerable about with her.
