GOVERNOR ANSWERS Georgia’s Chief Executive Comes Back At His Critics. “FAKE” REPORTS DENOUNCED Explain* What lie Did Say Re garding the Ogden Party and Dr. Parkhurst. Governor Candler of Georgia Tues day furnished the Atlanta newspapers au interview in reply to the many critics in other sections of his recent ntterances given out in Savannah with reference to the Robert C. Ogden party. In the reports as published in the northern papers the governor was made to say many things he did not say, and in consequence the editorial references to the interview were, in some instances, of a caustic tenor that might not have characterized them had he been correctly quoted. Governor Candler at first intended to have nothing further to say with reference to the matter, but so repeated and frequent have been the misstate ments, that he desires to set himself right once and for all, and in doing so he does not hesitate to express him self clearly and emphatically on the subject. Speaking of the matter Gov ernor Candler said in part: “Life is too short for a public man to follow up and correct all the slan derous statements made about himself, his actions and his utterances. Moun tains are made out of mole hills, w ords are put iu nis month that he never thought of uttering, and false color ings are put on what he does say and his utterances are paraded under lurid and misleading headlines by sensa tional paragraphers. I have learned to submit to all this, but there is a point at which forbearance ceases to be a virtue, and I have about reached that point. “The report of what I said about the Ogden-Parkhurst party as printed in the Savannah Press, though some what highly colored, was substantially correct, and was good-humored and harmless, but as it got farther north it was exaggerated and embellished by falsehood till I would not have rec ognized it if toy name had not been connected with it. In the conversation which Ihad with the Press man, which has been dig nified as an ‘interview,’ I said nothing that could give offense to the most sensitive, unless perhaps my joc ular reference to Dr. Parkhurst as a crank could do so, I ‘criticised’ no body; I ‘roasted’ nobody; I ‘de nounced’ nobody; I said not a word about ‘d—d yaukee money; I impugn ed nobody’s motives. I see Dr. Park hurst is reported to have said in his Sunday's sermon, ‘Had the governor of Georgia, as did the governor of North Carolina, come into direct con tact with the personnel of the confer ence,’ the criticism would not have been made. “This seems to be the head and front of my offending, that I did not dance attendance on this party at its meeting in the colored church in this city. I beg to assure the reverend doctor that no offense was intended. Had it occurred to me that this was a courtesy expected of me I would cer tainly have gone, at whatever sacrifice of other duties, because I do not de sire to be discourteous. The doctor says: ‘The south does not altogether love ns, but no one there hates ns.” The latter part of this statement is unquestionably true. There is here and there iu the south a crank (for we have some cranks here, too,) who thinks he hates the northern people, but this species is rare, much rarer, I fear, than the men at the north who hate the peiple of the south. “The amiable doctor may differ with me in this, but he would not if he could see the hundreds of denuncia tory and vilely abusive letters in my possession, some of them from his own city, iu which the vilest epithets are applied to the south and southern roen, and even southern women, such as ‘you cannot rahe men in the south, you raise brutes,’ ‘your state is a dis grace to the nation, ‘snuff dipping sluts, ‘d—d daughters of sin,’ etc, “These vile denunciations and slan 'lerß have not emanated alone from ig oorant fanatics, but some of the north ern newspapers have been just as bit ter and slanderous. “The southern white people and the southern negroes understand each other and do not hate each other when let alone. These miserable assassins °f character and of the peace commu xuties are chargeable with all the race fiction that exists. We had none of | rofor9 they intermeddled. They rove abused the liberty of the press a '" ia ve construed it into license to s under and abuse those who, kuowing ■c situation in the south better than , d° dare to dissent from their 'rogmas born of ignorance and preju ,lce, °r to resent their insults and slanders.

MORGAN BUYS STEAMERS. Railway flajjnate Now flakes Hove to Consolidate Traffic On the High Seas. A London special says: The first step in the direction of the consolida tion cf some of the biggest trans-At lantic shipping interests has been accomplisued by the purchase by J. Pierpout Morgan & Cos. of the Leyland line of steamers. A deposit on the purchase money has been paid. A representative of the Associated Press learned that the purchase of the Leyland line is tantamount to its con solidation with the Atlantic Transport line. For the present the Leyland line will retain its name and be under the same management, though changes in the directorate are likely to occur shortly. President Baker, of the Atlantic Transport line, said : “Although the Leyland line has been purchased by the Morgans, I am not yet at liberty, nor, indeed, fully in a position to discuss the arrangements projected. Beyond the purchase noth ing will be settled till I return front, the United States in Juue.” The result of the projected consoli dation will be a steamship company with the la-gest tonnage of any coni' pauy in the world. The officials of the Leyland line, in confirming the sale, said that au official statement will be issued from the head office of the line at Liverpool. It is understood that the shareholders will receive £l4 10s. for each £lO share. The Leyland line, whose fleets will thus pass into the control <>f Ameri cans, is one of Great Britain’s greatest shipping institutions, far exceeding the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company iu tonnage and importance.
