HEWS OF THE WEEK.
Five hundred clerks in the Richmond
Terminal in Atlanta were not paid off
on the 1st of January, and arc in much
anxiety about it. The Richmond A Dan
ville muddle is impenetrable thus far.
For many months the aflairs of the
Richmond Terminal, that Giant Octopus,
that has threatened to absorb the entire
railroad system of the South East, have
been the subject of daily comment by
the press of the country.
It waa generally conceded that the
Directory of the Richmond Terminal
held a power for good or evil to different
sections of our Southland, hitherto
known, and whether for good or evil the
future alone could determine.
The lease of the Central Road to the
Terminal was considered by many a di
rect menace to the prosperity of this
section and to the interests of the stock
holders of the Central system. None
combatted this idea with more vigor
the late Legislature than the Cal
houn*, and yet they arc the first to toll
of the iniquities of the Terminal Di
rectors.
Mr. Fat. Calhoun’s letter to the people
ot Georgia, published in the Sunday’i
papers make* the sensational charge that
those who now control the Central
tend to wreck it.
The Richmond Terminal people,
the other hand, claim that the Calhouns
forced to sever their connection
with the Terminal and Central on a<
count of-exhorbitant detpands made for
alleged services.
>me time it has been evident
that trouble was brewing in the Termi
nal camp.
The Thoinaa-Brice people have been
at-outs with the Inman-Calhoun faction
low on top. This means the re
tirement of Inman from the Presidency
at no distant date, and if what Mr. Cal
houn says ia true, we may look for the
iplendid Central property to become the
shuttle-cock to the battle-doors of Wall
Street The Calhouns can hardly avoid
responsibility for this result
The people of Georgia, through their
last Legislature, desired to annul the
contract between the Georgia Pacific and
the Central, which gave the control of
the latter road to the Richmond Termi
nal, but Patrick Calhoun succeeded
preventing such a result by assurances
of good faith on the part of the Terminal
people. He should have known and did
know that the result which he now pre
dicts was then a possibility, and his
rank charges at this late date only add
force to the opinion that the solicitude
of the Calhouns for the people of Geor
gia is born of a larger interest in their
own ambitious aims.
The leeqpQ of all this to the people of
Georgia is {that when railroads cease to
be operated as legitimate business enter
prises by their legitimate owners, and
are dragged into the arena of wild spec
ulation, it is time for the people to assert
their sovereignty and bring them back
to their proper sphere of control.

Early in the day it was clearly
that the opposition to the Regular ticket
which had arisen among a few over-am
bitious negroes, would amount to noth
ing, as it failed to receive the expected
endorsement of the white people, a few
only taking advantage of the defection
among the colored people to scratch the
Regular ticket and thus lessen the ma
jorities of some of the.candidates.
The better class of the colored people
stood by the Regular ticket, and the
rag-tag and bob-tail element, after fail
ing to convince the white people that
their ticket was loyally Democratic and
their colored brethren that it was as loy
ally Republican, were given to under
stand that their interference in munici
pal matters was not wanted and would
not be tolerated. In fact it was openly
declared that at least three of the aspir
ing leaden of the mob would have to
walk straight henceforth or a change of
residence would be recommended.
