:. CORRESPONDENCE,
THE REVIVAL NEEDED.

EDITOR ADVANCE l had the pleas
ure of listening to the preaching of the
Gospel on last Sabbath and Sabbath
evening by two pilgrims who had found
their way here to this town to preach
Christ and him crucified. And I be-
lieve it to have been an act of Providence
in sending them here. For the Wor-
Ellington people have settled so deep in
the sins of the times, such as assuming
style and aristocracy and seeking pop
ularity, that the true Gospel is rarely
preached unless a weakssister comes
along to. confound the mighty. But if
all the women this side of Heaven
should come here to preach and to start
a revival of religion, they never could
smooth over the old members that are
implicated in affairs that no one but
God and themselves can right. And it
should be righted, so that the public
would know that it is righted. And
then if the Gospel is. preached with
power and the Holy Ghost great good
can be accomplished and not before
May God help the people to wake up
and to see themselves AS they are.

HORRORS or BULLrDOZING.

=. HORRORS OF BULLDOZING.
One of the ghastliest pictures in the
book Of Southern history was that be-
fore the returning board of Louisiana
when Eliza Pinkston, colored woman,
was carried in on bed to tell her story
OF the horrible bull-dozing to which
she and her family were subjected at
the hands Of some forty Southern
bloods. She was cut almost to pieces,
her person violated, her infants throat
cut from ear to ear, and her husband
was mutilated and then riddled with
bullets. This is her story, and it is be-
lieved by Republicans. On the other
hand, the Democrats say the difficulty
was personal and not political, and that
the perpetrators were negroes and not
white men. We could believe some
thing of the Democratic claim, if the
outrage did not accord so we'll with the
history Of the past four years in the
South.
There is neither liberty nor law at
the South. While there is the SEM
blance and form Of law, there is abso-
lutely worse state of affairs than
there is in Mexico. We do not ques-
ton the Indian massacres and outrages.
Why should we question the stories of
the horrible butclleries Of the South?
But whatever was the cause of the
Eliza Pinkston outrage, it should be
probed to the bottom. Congress can
not do better than to spend the winter,
Il necessary, in thoroughly Investigate
ing the charges of bull-dozing in the
South. If these horrible revelations
are all political lies, for goodness sake
and civilizations sake let us know it.

A little episode in the life of the edi-
tor of the WORTH1NGToN ADVANCE,
has broken the monotony of that quiet
little hamlet, and he has taught the
roughs OF that place a lesson which
they will not be likely to soon forget.
The editor, by his fearless stand for the
right, had gained the i'll will Of the
rovdy element, and for some time past
has suffered all manner of outrage and
insult. Forbearance ceasing to be a
virtue, he bore down Oh them through
the columns of his paper, which so EN-
ragged them that they swore out Il war
rant for his arrest. Upon coming before
the court, the editor came out ahead,
and the rowdies sKulked away. Mob
violence will not work in q civilized
! community, and the sooner the rougI,s
find it out, the better will it be for all
concerned.-Emmetsburg Reporter.
The Worthington advance. [volume] (Worthington, Minn.) 1874-1908, 1876-12-07

Mr.. H.: II. Roe, editor of the Fergus
Falls Advocate, announces that he has
sold his establishment to Mr.. A. J. Un-
derwood, editor of the Journal, and
that the Advocate will be merged into
that paper. The reason assigned is a
very good one, and is very frankly
stated, that the Advocate ''ttid not
pay,'' because there has never been
more than enough business in Otter
Tail County Ito decently support more
than one paper" Mr.. Underwood,
having: the field to himself, promises
that the Journal shall he better paper
in every respect than when hampered
by ruinous competition.-Saint Paul
PiOneer-Press.
This is true in other places. There
is not business enough in Wortl,ington
to decent)y support one paper, but the
greed of apolitical ring, the spite Of a
few rowdies and the disappointment of
the few who could not control the one
paper already here, has led to the at
tempt to keep up 4 second newspaper.
The result will he as it was in Fergus
Falls, Madelia, and other places-end-
ing in the failure Of the new paper.

8I7I1-D0zING
This term, which has come to us
during the recent campaign from the
semi-barbarous South, is said to be de-
rived from the French words belle dop-
zaine, a fine or full dozen, and meant in
the days of slavery thirteen lashes on
the bare back. Another account is
given by the New Orleans papers as
follows:
The pleasant brethren of the "Stop, -
a political society, were in the habit of
giving warning calls once, twice, three
times, to those whom they desired and
demanded should join the ''Stop.'' If,
on the third and last call, they did not
comply with the demand and take the
oath, the unfortunate negro was taken
to the woods and given 4 ''bull-tlose''
of the cowhide on his naked back. A
cool hundred we'll laid on was consid-
cred Il bulls dose for once; and the
victim either listened to such potent
reasoning and took the oath rs Il men,
Der, or fled the country. From i, bulls
dose soon came the verb to bull d0zle.
