BANNER : TUESDAY MORNING MAY o 1891
A DAY OF MEMORIES.
Monday brought up before the
mental vision a flood of memories.
Memories that come like an over
flowing panorama in the human
heart, and make us live in the realms
of the noblest , impulse that ever
ruled a patriot’s heart, or marked a
people’s history. There is at least
one day in the three hundred and
sixty-five when the old South lives
predominant in the heart and soul
of all true Southerners as something
more than the memory of a vain and
idle dream. On Memorial day we
live in the light of the past. We go
back to the old South again in very
spirit and truth,and closing the stores
and workshops of the Bew, industrial
South, we see only with the eyes of
our fathers, many of whom were laid
to rest forever on *' fame’s eternal
camping ground.”
Oh, bless the lesson of Memorial
day!
God, rekindle in Southern hearts
ae the years toll swiftly on, the flame
of incomparable patriotism that led
oar fathers on in the bloody trail of
the drooping stars and bars till they
went down in defeat and humiliation
on the bloody field of Appomattox !
The day was celebrated all over
the South yesterday, but nowhere
was the sincerity of purpose more
forcibly illustrated than right here
in Athens, the Classic City of Geor
gia. The people closed their stores
and business offices early in the
morning, and the busy din of pro
gress was hushed. There was that
in. the very air that solemnized the
day, and Heaven itself smiled down
a peaceful benediction of glorious
sunshine upon the old veterans, the
sons of veterans and the daughters
of veterans as they marched from
the College chapel over to the mounds
on the hilleide overlooking the Oco
nee to do honor unto those heroes
who sleep beneath.
So let it ever be !
And as we go back to busy life
again this day, let it be with hearts
made purer and better in the reali
zation of our rightful duties of citis
zensbip. Let us go about the build
ing of the new South with honor to
the old. Let us bend our hearts to
the work in the consolation given by
the impartial historian, that we have
much to be thankful for, and little,
very little to regret.

nence that right here in Athens the
best kind of catalogue and job work
can be executed.

be

lishers.
THE NEW COURTHOUSE.
Clarke county is to have a new
Court house. This seems too certain
to create the slightest doubt now.
And the county has never taken a
wiser step than in securing another
site for the building. It was a grand
mistake ever to have put the Court
house where it now stands. The
place is too far away from the busi
ness centre of the city, and many in
conveniences result.
The Court bouse ought to be in
the heart of Athens, in near reach of
all the lawyers from their offices, so
that records of letters, deeds, Ac.,
might be examined from hour to hour
during the day. Many other causes
conspire to make it desirable to have
the Court house in the centre of the
business part of Athens-
The committee will meet to-mor.
row to examine the public school
building to find if it will be large
enough for a court house. If they
find it so, and there is no reason to
think they will not, then the county
will trade its court house for the
city’s school building, and the school
will be moved to the-co'urt house lot
on Prince*avenue.
It is to be hoped that the trade
will be consummated.
CEORCIA AT CHICAGO.
The convention of.delegates from
all over Georgia to be held in At
lanta for the purpose of deciding
whether or not Georgia will be rep
resented at the World’s Fair is draw
ing very near.
That will be a most important day
in the history of Georgia, for it will
be a day upon which will rest very
much that concerns the material de
velopment, and the unceasing pros
perity of this State. Georgia must
not let the day pass in disappoint*
ment and failure. She cannot afford
to decide that she will not have
display of her untold resources at
the World’s Fair. It is a chance of
a life timo, and the Empire State of
the South can ill .afford to let it pass.
Georgia canncu take this matter to
heart too seriously. Let her profit
by the experience of the past, and
give the Columbian Exposition the
greatest display of any State in the
South. This can only be done, too,
-by State appropriation. Take, for
example, the exhibition held by
Georgia at the New Orleans Expos!
tion. This was done by private and
individual subscription and the con*
sequence was that it was a very in*
significant display, and owing to the
tardiness of action among the sub
scribers it was put in a very remote
corner of the space taken by the ex
hibitors.
We cannot let this result again
especially at such a great exposition
as the World’s Fair. Even Japan
the land of the much ridiculed Mi
kado, is going to have a splendid
display at the Exposition at Chica
go, and every other nation known to
the civilized and progressive world
Think of it!
The benefit of a great and striking
exhibit from Georgia cannot be east,
ly fancied.
Governor Northern, whose entire
service has proved him to be enthu
siastic with heart and soul in the fu
tare welfare of the State, and whose
circumspective wisdom has many
time been exercised for the good ol
the old State, sees that Georgia will
lose much by not having a splendid
display of her unbounded mineral
and agricultural resources at Chicago.
The people, too, all over the State
are with him, and now it remains for
the May convention to execute the
wishes of the people. The Banner
regrets to see the newspapers
Georgia evidence so little interest
this matter. We conceive it to be
the most vital question now resting
before Georgians for a safe and sat*
isfactory solution.
THE SOUTHERN ALLIANCE.
It seems certain at least that the
Southern Alliance, despite the talk
about a third party down here, has
frightened the trickster politicians of
the North and West;
The following editorial is clipped
from the Daily Nebraska State Jour
nal :
two weeks ago: “We have aconmoo
heritage.. The Confederate soldier
has a full, honorable and nngrudged
participation in all the benefits of a
great and just Government.” Great
statesman, broad patriot is Mr. Har
rison ; but we fear that he never cut
down a cherry tree in bis youth.
“The alliance mask ^which the fol
lowers of L. L. Polk have been we? r-
mg for tbe last two years, has wo n
so thin as to no longer be of service
as a disguise with which to deceive
their northern dopes, and through
the rents and tears which it has re»
ceived at recent meetings of the or
ganization in various Southern States
unalloyed democracy is nlainly visi
ble to the most careless observer.
The alliance Sonth is the cherished
offspring of democracy, working loy
ally, untiringly, and uncompromi*
singly for its bourbon parent, who,
sitting in the back ground is direct
ing its every movement. The fol
lowing editorial taken from the Ath
ens Banner, one of the leading dem
ocratic organs of Georgia, indicates
that the conclusion has been reached
by Southern democrats that the time
and necessitv for concealment of
their true objects has gone by, and
that henceforth democracy’s battles
shall be fought by the farmer’s alli
ance of tbe South. The Banner says:
“ 'Editor Dana and Senator Ed -
munds are at variance in their opin
ion as to the weight of the farmers’
alliance in the coming presidential
campaign.
“ ‘Editor Dana, in bis notable in
terview with tbe Atlanta Gonstitua
tion, stated that it was very gravely
doubted by him whether the farmers’
alliance as a political machine would
do the republican party more harm
than it would do the democratic par.
ty. No better evidence could have
been given by Mr. Dana to prove bis
ignorance about tbe affairs of tbe
tarineis’ alliance.
'There is not a principle of the
alliance but what is stamped with
democracy of tbe truest type. Tbe
order was founded on democratic
principles solely, tbe fact is appa»
rent to every discerning eye that the
alliance is at work all over this broad
land of ours for the democratic par
ty. To observe tbe late triumphant
sweep of democracy is to make this
conclusion beyond a doubt.
'The alliance and the democracy
are one aud the same.’ ”
The Dallas Morning News says: It
is to be hoped that President Harrison
will not forget what he has seen and
heard for himself in the south when he
visits later the great cities of the east.
Those cities have enjoyed a high tribute
from tbe products of all the forests,
fields and miues of the south and west
so long that they will persist in the as
sertion of their right to a continuance
of the present conditions of trade.
Tbe people of the south and west have a
right to direct communication with the
consumers of their products through a
deep water port at Galveston and a re
ciprocity with Mexico.
“’Tis summer and tne darkies are
gay.” They are also happy in the con
templation of iho arrival of the first
“water-million” on the vines of the
“boss’ ” patch.

There’s no use talking about it, there

HERE’S YOUR CHANCE.
The Banner’s books have arrived
to
THE UNIVERSITY CATALOGUE.
Yesterday the Catalogue of the
University of Georgia for 1891 was
issued from tbe Banner's Job Office.
The catalogue is complete with
bout seventy-five pages setting
the claims of each and every
department of the State University.
It is perhaps the completest volume
that ever went out from the college.
The work of arrangement and edit--
iag the Catalogue was conferred by
the faculty upon Dr. J. P. Campbell,
ot the chair of Biology, and his most
earnest efforts have been faithfully
directed towards getting out such a
book as will do credit to the grand
old educational institution of Geor-
How well he has succeeded is
and are now on exhibition in the
business office. Never did Athens
people have such an offer made
them as that which the Banner ex
ieods now, and those who are at all
familiar with the books must bear
testimony to this fact.
What is the offer?
We give the full and latest edi
tion of the Americanized Eacpclo-
psedia Brittannica and one year’s
subscription to tbe Daily Banner
for $30, or 36; according . -*& tlie
style of binding desired.
What is the Encyclopaedia?
It is the greatest publication
known to the civilized world. It is
in ten large volumes, containing an
enormous store of information about
anything and everything. History,
mythology, literature, war govern*’
ment, biography, science,—every
thing is treated in a way most de
sirable. No library is complete
without it; it is a library within
itself.
The Banner will canvass Athens
for the next few days to extend the
offer personally to every citizen. We
wish it to be undeistood that wc
have gone to considerable trouble to
secure this offer aDd have done so
with no view of profit to ourselves.
We offer the Encyclopaedia simply
as an attractive aud desirable pre-
Our ’steemed (friend ‘away out iu
the wild aud woolly West is very
correct in acknowledging that the
democracy of'the Solid South and
the Southern Alliance are one aud
the same. The Banner is glad to
have taught its Western contempo
rary this much about the Farmers
Alliance and its politics.
But the Nebraska Journal is very
wrong to say that the Alliance ever
started out with a political mask on
it, and that this mask is being torn
from it. Tbe Alliance had ita origin
sub rosa it is true, and it is a secret
order to this day, but so far as polia
tics are concerned, the Alliance has
always stood squarely, and fairly uub
covered, showing its face, the linea
ments ol! which are the same as those
of the democracy.
The Alliance has business methods
which are private to the order, and
which are rightful privileges of the
farmers for whose protection they
were planned. But, the Alliance
operates upon no principle that is
not straight out democracy to the
core.
The Democracy and the Alliance
are not two distinct political bodies.
They can never be so. The same
men who form the membership of
the Alliance are the men who stand
in solid phalanx, forming the Dem
ocracy. The two organizations are
therefore the same organization so
tar as politics go.
And this is right
The Italian Peace and Arbitration
Society has memorialized Signor Rudi-
ni to submit the dispute beteen Italy
and the United States to Arbitration
There is nothing in the case, as yet, to
arbitrate. No proof has, up to the pres
ent time, been produced to show that
the men killed on the 14th of March
were Italian subjects. True, Italy
claims that some of them were, but
proof of that fact has not yet been been
funished.
Henry Watterson on licking envel
opes: The doctors say that it is danger
ous to lick envelopes. Perhaps tbe pub
lic would do well to get its postmasters
to lick the envelopes as well as the
stamps. If a postmaster dies, President
Harrison always has another on hand
while some of our busy citizens who do
their own licking are much missed when
taken off by the gum-stick’em.
The Athens teachers are expected to
arrive in Macon this afternoon and will
be received by the Macon teachers, and
together they will go trom Macon to
Binnswick via the Georgia Southern
and Florida road.—Macon News.
'When it is remembered that the teach
era of Athens are from the best schools
in Georgia it is not to be wondered at
because they receive attentions so cour
teous from their co-laborers.
Editor Dana has said that the Alli
ance may do the Democratic party more
barm than they will go the Republican
party in the next campaigu. Never.
Discerning people will generally agree
with the conclusion from tbe fact
that the alliance, as a minor party or
group in politics ODposed to the policy
of the dominant party, is logically al
igned with the democracy in hostility
to a common enemy.
The grand jury of Clarke county did
a very wise thing in giving the Farm

The Covington Enterprise thinks
that both the democratic and republican
parties will endeavor to get rid of the
silver question before ’62. It is very
probable that a free coinage bill will
pass soon after next congress meets,
without it being considered a party

HARRISON AND THE CONFEDERATE
VET.
Says the Charleston News and
Courier : The facts in regard to Mr.
Harrison’s opposition to the repeal
of the existing statute disqualifying
any ex Confederate soldier from
holding a position in the United
States army have come out at last.
On April 7, 1886, Senator Gibson, of
Louisiana, moved to repeal tbe sfcatt.
ute in question, llis motion was de
feated by a vote of 25 to 24. Mr
Harrison was in the Senate at the
time and did not vote. As the New
York Evening Post says, “it thus
appears that not only does the Con
federate soldier still labor under an
odious disqualification, but that this
unjust discrimination against him
exists by the action of Mr. Harrison
five years ago, when he held the cast
