at 'lcksburg, the assassination party
must soon triumph. and even Jefferson
Davis would not despair of his Redeeme,
BY the grace Of God, and by killing mig
gers. there will be life in the old lane
yet.
Regarding tie fourth Of July outrage
business man Of Vicksburg said:
IL our city had suffered a fire, By which
! sue rad lost half a million Of dollars, il
could not have been worse tor her CONNER
clai prosperity than the events OK last Mon
| Ga".
Ike color line Non;to. only parity
agrees with MIN. As if in eztenua.ion OF
the crime. it argues that the Sheriff. clerl;
OF court. and superintendent: Of education
are corrupt officials. 1: says:
I! Upon these causes we must i.x the re-
F., spons:b!l:ty Of la-: Mondays happenings.
II our business men bewai! the injury TO
! the trade Of our city (Which they may well
| do) they mus: look 70 til. true causes
| which produced the sai effect. which we
! now deploIe. WAT then mus. We do: We
must overthrow the foul admini.tVa!i ions
that engcnder these evils. We mus: rid
ourselves OF the cause Il we expect TO be

one amt all, buckle on our a,nc. and
soieinEly determine that, as we have tie
chance OF victory in our hands this fall. sc
WILL. by Gods help, do all that men can DO 10
retrieve our fallen fortunes and to obtain q

Of redemption
And so the campaign opens. Business
men are told that buckling on Democratic

posite vii! be the effect. That the sheriff
Of Warren county is a colorcd man is not
the reason why Iiclssburg is dead town
commercially. The cause is in the repe,-
liant disposition of tie citizens, and people
and money keep a: q respectful distance
Even if tie State and county officials are
as bad as represented to be they could not
crush business. and the right remedy is
no: 70 kill them before :lia!. Tweed

she is ruled by Democrats: Nicksburg is |
Democratic under Mayor OLea,y and the !
