"BACK SALARY STEAL" CANDI.
BATES FOR SPEAKER.


1t appears that Mr.. Dawes is now re-
ga,ded as Mr.. Blaine's Tost formidable
competitor for the speakersl1ip, though Mr..
Maynard, of Tennessee has heretofore been
regarded as the leading aspirant. Mr..
Dawes isone of the gentlemen who accept
ed the Credit Mobilier bfibes when they
were offered, but in whom the fear Of ex-
posure did the work of conscience, as they
returned them as soon as litigation was
threatened. His support viii doubtless
come from the protectionists, who are sg-
grieyed because Blaine did rot make
the Committee On Ways AMI Means en-
:irely their own. There is another ques-
ton which may exert some influence on the
election of Speaker. Mr.. Maynard has
drawn his share Of the ''back salary steal"
and has kept it. We do not remember
whether Blaine and Dawes drew their share
Ct the swsg," or whether they have left it
to be drawn at some future time, but The
Washington Republican Of the I'd inst. does
not publish their names among those who
hsve returned the shack salary steal" to the
United States Treasury. Republican jour
nals have bitterly denounced the recipients
of this shack salary steal" We shall soon
S how they treat the matter so far as It
affects the candidates for Speaker.

PRRHIsrORIC NATIONS.

A writer in AppletOn's journal gives an
account Of the remarkable discoveries that
have recently been made of the mining
operations Of an ancient race on Isle Royale,
in Lake Superior. While it is not probable
mat tanth part Of the old excavations on
The island have been found, still it is stated
that on thee sections of land the amount
Of work performed exceeded that of the
Oldest and best worked copper mine on the
south shore CT the lake, where large force
has bsen empty for twenty years. This
W TX was doubtless all accomplished by
the aid of tools made of copper and stone,
both of which are found in abundance. The
operation of mining consisted in throwing
off the earth, building fires on the rock, and
when it became heated, throwing water
upon it. Ia many cases excSvat 'ons were
made in this way that were 80 feet in di.
aineter and GO feet deep. 1t is estimated that
one man, by The aid of modern spplia 1ces,
can do the work that then required one
hundred men. These ancient miners
showed great intelligence in selecting places
4, mine, and in following veins of metal.
The amount of copper removed from this
island must have been immense. The site
Of the town occupied by these ancient
miners has been discovered on the suth
side of the island. 1t occupied an elevated
slope of Lake Superior. At its foot is an
excellent harbor.
How little we know OF the industry and
achievements of peoples who lived, worked
mines, and built cities, long before any
writing, engraving, or letter was thought
at. Man was contemporary with several
tx met species of animals, and bis turn
may como next TO give place TO something
sore useful and better in the world.

THE REIGN OF TERROR In MISSES.
GEpPI

A correspondent of the Memphis appeal
who was in Grenada on the morning of the
10th, the day of the riot, relates: ga train
filed with blacks came ITO Grenada this
morning at eight O'Clock. inquired as 10
the occasion Of this convocation, but none
could tell. The conductor said that some
secret benevolent % black body was gath
ering its forces for some purpose unknown
to the public" This correspondent gives
terrible picture of the pending political can
vass:
There are secret associations of blacks
everywhere. They dress and are drilled as
soldiers, Every negro is armed cap .d-pie.
10 every cabin there are guns and pistols
and knives. They are solidy, compactly
organized in outright declared partisan hos
guiding principle of action is opposition TO
The white race. The alarm at Grenada
tn afternoon grew out of this simple fact,
which the people perfectly comprehend.
And this is the BEGINNING, mark you, of
political campaign-the significant preface,
the trifling prelude. If Alccrn comes forth
of violence will be numberless, and a great
er degree of excitement will characterize
the contest than has been known for years.
Each ne ghborhood has its leader, and so of
each county and district, and if these auto
Gratis pronounce against Alcorn or Ames,
reason and interest and common sense will
interpose objections in vain.
OF tho temper Of the whites he says:
"The older people whom encountered
have lost both partisan and self confidence.
Their spirits are broken. They are disposed
to regard each evil that threatens them as
newt cDle, and bow their necks meekly to
the negro yoke. Such sha 1eful paralys
has seized many aged Mississipisns, and
the younger are Sd victimized by prejudices
and so resolved to do what is unwiss, be-
cause wise policy does not comport with a
lofty, exaggerated sense of honor, that any |
desirable solution of pending questions can
not be anticipated. Ames and Ben Butler |
will seize and plumber the State. There IS |
no present help for it. The only recourse |
the people have is in Alcorn and the poll |

ADMIRAL SEAIMs, who commanded the

late civil war made speech at the meet
.ng of the Southern Historical Society at
t1s Montgomery White Sulphur Springs N
irginis on the 10Th inst, in which, accord
,ag to the Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Gazette, he msiutainod that the
Alabama had warrants for all she did, and
that her conduct was fully justified by
The presidents of tie United States during
the Revolution, snd war of 1912. He de-
MED burning ships without authority of the
law, the violation of his parole, or carrying
foreigners on his ship. He also said, aIf
The nation exists we will have bat one his
tory. England has but one history. Our
Confederate history will live for genera
ticn or more. In five hundred years there
will be no history of the Confederate States,
but of the whole country. Let us show
magnanimity. II fame has been gained on
either side, let us perpetuate It. Let us
pursue that moderate course, and give credit
where credit is Due" By the standard of
truth he was willing to be judged.
