CoNFEDRlTiX ROADS, WIeH is IN THE
STATE Nv KENTUCKY, Dec. l6, 1885,
The infamous countin out NV Tilden,
the Reform candidate, in spite nv the
nigger-killin, bull-dozin and intim-
idashun we did to kecry Floridy,
Lozeaner and South Kerliny will go
down into histry cz the final stab at
the liberties Of a brave and opprest
people. hev no words to express
my indignashun at the deed, or my
loathin NV the deedcrs. When think
that over thousand niggers wuz
killed in them states, and that the
KILN of that thousand scared OFF at
least a thousand more; when I think
NV the pains we took to keep Abul-
ishnists from votin, and when 1 think
Nv the mastery way we counted in
the parishes our rifle clubs took con-
troll NV, and that after all this we w0z
counted out by Returnin Boards and
sich, upheld by the mynuns NV Fed
eral power, l heye no hesitashen in
assertin that our prctense Nv liberty
il a holler mocllery, and that the idee
NV a government by the people mite
ez well be abandoned TO wunst.
= The Corners resolved never to SUBJ
NIT to the outrage, and the mint the
Yoonited States Marshal got away
the war feelin he'd to hev vent. There
aint only one way for the Corners to
work off its excitement, and that IL by
a meetin. 1 called one immejitly, and
so intense was the feelin that every
citizen NV the Corners wuz present.
never seed sich feelin since l
wuz child. There wasn't eny loud,
blusterin' Unnecessary talk-men felt
it wuz no time for talk, but rather for
ackshun. Their wuz that compreshen
NV lip, that stern look, that thotful
expreshen, that one secs here only in
times NV CRATE public danger, or
when Bascom presents his bill to the
citizens with the hairless remark that
You don't git another drop until that
IL paid.
Dekin Pogram remarkt that the
countin out NV Tilden wuz an outrage
to wich the Corners wood never SUBJ
NIT. The Corners he'd made sacrlfi-
ces before for Constitooshnel liberty,
and wood agin. Ez old ez he wuZ, he
he'd shot Fedrel pikkets. and, though
age he'd dimmed hiz eyes, and the
newnis NV Bascom's likker he'd eff
fected his nerves, he believed that he
Good do somethin in that way yit. He
desired nuthin SO much ez to git
crack at an Abulishnist. He prefer
red KILN Ablishnists to niggers eny
day.
lssaker Pogram wuz more in earn
est. He wanted war enyhow. He
wuz tired NV all this beatin about the
bush. He he'd killed niggers to keep
them from yotin, wich he felt wuz
base compromise. 1t wuz an admishn
that the niger he'd rite to vote eff
he wuzn't killed, wich he wood never
consent to. He wanted All appele to
arms that the rite NV the proud Cau-
cashn to rOol mite be established for
ever. His voice wuz for war. He wuz
thirsty for gore. No compromise for
him--war to the knife.
Capt. M'Pelzer wuz for war. He
bed suffered wunst, and wuz willin
10 agin. He wuZ glad that Tilden wuz
npunted out, for it showed the South
hat they he'd nothin to expect from
nde Ablishin North. War wuz the
WHY resource lef for free people.
