The weekly clarion. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1863-1882, 1871-12-14

The following are the particulars, as
far as we could gather them from au-
thentic sources, of this affair:
u. s. Commissioner Ellis issued q
warrant for the arrest of some negroes
charged with violating the Enforcement
Act, or some other improper conduct
The colored friends and accomplices Of
the disorderly parties combining with
them, organized and armed themselves to
prevent arrest, and to release those who
had been arrested. This led to counter
resistance on the part of the authorities,
who summoned a posse of citizens to their
assistance. The negroes marched into
Starkville, fully equipped. A fight en-
sued, in which young man, Robert Ell
lis, town marshal, and one of the sheriff's
party, was seriously wounded, and also
the sheriff himself, who is said to be
relative of the Governor. Three Of the
rioters were wounded. The next day the
L. S. Commissioner aud marshal, with
a posse, started in pursuit of the rioters
They succeeded in capturing two of the
actors in the affair, but the chief of the
gang escaped, after making desperate
resistance to four of the posse, wounding
one of them, Mr.. Rainey, of West
Point, severely.
Meantime United States troops were
dispatched to the scene of action, and
there is a report that the officer in COM
mand was ambushed and shot.
As it is an affair in which the loyal
element figured prominently, and in
which the disloyalists were only promi-
nent in obeying the'call of the authorities
70 uphold law and order, we presume it
will create but little stir at Radical head
quarters.
Information for Tax Payers.
The following circular contains inter
esting information to a large number OF
citizens who were unable to pay their
taxes by or before the 1st Of December.
1t was an outrageous requlsltlon OF the
Radical extortionists on the scanty means
of the impoverished people for two years
taxes within twelve months, but no con-
sideration of justice or mercy have ever
stood between the gre-dy adventures
and the hard earnings Of the toiling peo-
pie for which they are reaching forth
their hands. 1t was understood that
failure to comply with the acquisitions
by the 1st of December, involved very
heavy damages, but this impression has
been corrected by the following circular.
Knowing the losses and Inconvenience
to which the tax payers have been put
by this incorrect belief which collectors
in many cases were VIGOROUSLY instru-
mental in propagating, the Auditor of
Public Accounts is censurable for not
having impaired this information to the
public at an earlier day:

The state Fair.

This grand exhibition has paramount
claims on our columns to-day. To say
that the praiseworthy efforts of the Direc-
tory have been crowned with success,
would but feebly convey the idea. The
people, too, have nobly come to their aid.
They have come as an avalanche-everv
class, avocation and profession, helping
to swell the tide of humanity that has
swelled and surged on The grounds dedi
Gated to the extensive exhibition. That
they have been amply recompensed for
their attendance and for all their contri-
buttons that they have made to this
grand panorama of art and mechanical
skill, does not admit of doubt. And
nature, too, has put on her lovliest garb,
and smiled upon the occasion.

Onr county agricultural Society.

Our exchanges are full Of items Of
interest relative to the forthcoming
County Fairs. Wood County seems
to be alone without one.
That this is the fault of her citizens
~ =" true that none will attempt to
deny, or even attempt an apology for
their lack of Interest.
A few have lahored earnestly to
perfect arrangements for Comfy
Exhibition the present fall, but as
their efforts have not been seconded
by the p""ric, their labor Is all lost
ana ar orr anlzation only exists. To
'hSnr" success, every man in Wood
I County ought To- become a member
OF the Society at once, and further,
our business men ought TO contribute
to its treasury in such sums a. will
enable the Society to 90 on and pre-
It'' f-i''l''', 'iNAl Dtll'ilN2@, anu az
snch other work as its officers may
deem necessary.
Until our people take such interest,
the Society will have proven failure
The interest must be universal, and
then it will become success and
not till then If oar merchants were
to contribute ten dollars each to the
Society, the first annual exhil ilon
would more than compensate them
for the contribution in the increase of
trade. If a very little of the interest
taken in Railroads and Normal
Schools could be transferred to the
Agricultural Society cause, The enter
prise would become success at once.
II our people desire to resussitate the
Society, let them take some action
IN the matter at once.
