The Sun asks US to prove the charge
made by Republicans against Capt, Thomas
that heas lawyer collected money for a
client; that he used the money for his own
purposes, and refused to pay it to the client
until he became u candidate for Office, and
then under a threat of exposure. Now we
will ask the sun lift does not know it to be
fact that Republicans charged this upon
Thomas before his nomination. Ii Repubh-
cans believed it to be true then, is there any
less reason to believe in It's truth now that
the captain is nominated! And is the charge
true, anyhow VIII our neighbor answer!
We insist that the apathy shown by
Cairo Republicans in regard to the recent
outrages upon colored citizens of Ballard
county, when contrasted with the activity Of
Democrats in prosecuting the marauding
rascals, gives rise to a just suspicion that
the whole thing is Republican trick fire
the Northern heart. That game has been
played so long and so successfully little
further South that it would occasion no sur
prise to find Cairo Republicans feebIy imitat-
ing theircarpet-bag and scaawag brethren.
This Ballard county business has many of
the ear-marks of Radical manipulation, and
we shall be greatly surprised it. When the
bottom facts are reached, the suspicionsen
tertained are not fully verified
1t affords us pleasure to be able to
state upon the authority of prominent
and wel-known citizen of Ballard that
wrts have been issued for the arrest of
the men who have disgraced their county,
and that officers are now in the neighbor-
hood of East Cairo searching for them. 1t
is said that the gang have fed to the
swamps and are thoroughly frighten-
ed at the cosequences of their
acts. The promptness with which the
authorities Of Ballard have acted proves that
no sympathy exists for the outlaws, and
that justice will be dealt out to them with
an unsparing hand. 1t is also said that a
special grand jury will be summoned to
take cognizance of the matter
