say, ''Poor fellows" and the subject was
silently dismissed till next year.
1t requires pretty lively jogging of the
memory to remind the people of the
claims of the numerous fallen in the So
called ''noble cause of the South" The
victims of the civil war nearly exhausted
the stock of human sympathy, leaving
but scant measure for those who fell in
the other failure of ayear ago. We SYM
pathize with their bereaved families, who
no longer enjoy the scanty aims extorted
by means of charity fairs. We deplore the
unnecessary and unavailing loss of human
life, but can not see wherein those who
fell on the fourteenth of September, 1874,
are entitled to be regarded as objects of
public grief. They fought for part of
the people against the rest. They waged
fierce war upon their fellow citizens at
the instigation of leaders, who hoped to
gain by the result of the riot. Their
tragic end is to be regretted, but it will be
difficult to make large majority of the
community believe that it is a public
duty to extol their merits. They have in
no sense earned the distinction of mar
tyrdom, ana the attempt of few ill-ad-
vised persons to so crown them has no
better effect than to belittle them. They
met their deaths bravely, but by acct
dent. They were wrong, and dearly have
they paid the penalty Let them rest un-
diSturbed

THE UNFEED CHAMPIONS OF PUBLIC
VIRTUE.

Nlh1Ohs
The Bulletin charges the REPUBLICAN
with hostility to the white people of the
South, and to prove it quotes freely from
the columns of this paper. Aside from
the qualification it affords US of seeing Sc
much good sense in such an unexpected
place, We are pleased because there is not
in all that is thus held up single ILL
natured or hostile remark against the
people of the South, either white or black,
as such. 1t would be'quite as fair for us
to copy the BulRtin's police reports and
sensational ,feulletonS about burglars,
thieves, assaulters, etc., as an evidence
that that paper is trying to blacken the
character of the people of this city, as for
it to take our lashings of the Democratic
leaders to be intended for the hundreds
of thousands of innocent persons who are
their victims rather than their accom-
plices.
When we expose the hypocrisy and ex-
cesses of Democratic corner grocery
gathering, or detect White League jour
nal in conspiracy to set the people by
the ears, we do not attack ''the people. i"
1t is true, those who sustain incendiary
journals and applaud demagogue orators
are in some sort accessories to the mis-
chief they commit, but as it is done in
ignorance and without malice, we are
lenient. Republicans, white and black are
generally considered fair game for the
philippics of Democratic penholders,
though not word may be said in reply
lest the white people of the South be
abused and insulted. The Bulletin should
recollect that there are rights to be re-
spected on both sides, and blows to be
received as well as to be given. The two
parties are altogether too nearly of o
strength for either one or the other
to gain bloodless victory, and that when
it calls the representatives of the seventy
thousand Republican voters thieves, seal
awags, and all that, it insults by implica-
ton more people than we should were we
to launch maledictions against every man
who votes the Democratic ticket. Let us
call each other to account tor our mutual
shortcomings, neighbor Bulletin, and not
attempt to drag in those who are not even
thought of by either of us. The ''people"
are not likely to feel any great indignation
about our quarrel unless they are led to
suppose they are assailed by wholesale.
Besides, they are not over-sensitive about
it, any how, and look upon their Jealous
volunteer defenders with more or less well
grounded suspicion Of design upon their
nickels.

BUSINESS AND POLITICS.

The Vicksburg Herald, of the eleventh
instant, indicates the extremes to which
Democrats may expect to be driven by
those holding the party whip in Missis'
sippi A dispatch from jackson CORES.
pondent is published, saying:
AT a meeting of the Democratic club
held tonight it was resolved that the
Times. on account of it's report of the ClinA
ton affair, is a fit representative of the in
famous and corrupt party whose cause ii
advocates, and is unworthy of the conf
dence and patronage of this community.
This has the old ring of ward club in
tolerance, and belongs to tie starve-out-
Mediterranean policy of advancing the in
terets of the State. The gist of the charge
is that the jackson Times, the only Re
publican daily newspaper in the State, is
unworthy of the patronage "of the CON-
munity." The community are told this
by the Democratic club, some of the men,
bers. of which know little about reading
and writing, or newspapers of any sort.
The echo of this Cross Roads resolution
is found in the editorial columns of the
Vicksburg Herald, which paper gives the
following stab in the back thrust:
We wish especially to call the attention of
the gentlemen and the business rms whose
advertisements we find in the columns of
the Times, and we shall then ask if they
will continue to bestow their patronage
upon scurrilous sheet that misrepresents
and villihes, and attempts to fasten a
bayonet government upon them.
The editor of the Herald has examined
the advertisements of the Times, and warns
the advertisers to withdraw Their favors
or subject themselves to being held up to
public scorn and ostracism. The Herald
takes advantage of the political excite
ment worked up by the White Line
soldiers to show its meanness.
The tendency of commerce is to make
the whole world brotherhood. 1t has
done as much for civilization as the Chris
tan religion. With commerce the money
of one man is as good as that of another,
and trade unobstructed brings all sections
of country and men of all creeds into
close relations.
The question in Mississippi is, have
business men any rights not granted them
by Democratic ward clubs? In State
with large Republican majority the
jackson Times undoubtedly has large
number of readers, men who work when
when allowed to do so, and who earn
money and buy goods. The shrewd mer-
chant will bring all sorts of customers to
his doors He is not obliged to vote with
them but he may trade with them, and
keep his own opinions while taking their
dollars. Such business man will nat
urally make known his place of
business, and the advantages he can give
by advertising in any paper likely to
reach customers. North and West he
would be commended for such course
and would prosper. In Mississippi the
case is different Democratic clubs an
nounce that Republican papers are I'M
worthy of patronage, instructing the bust
ness men to that extent, and the White
Line organs reiterate the cry, and indi-
cate that merchants who dare to advertise
in Republican papers will be marked and
held up for ostracism.
