WEEK OF V
Where do You stand?

Mr.. Allen Smith, who stands between
the people. and and theBoard ofSupervi
sors in the Moore bond compromise,
promises to say something about the
case soon. We will cherefully publish
what he has to say, and predict it will
be mighty interesting reading to some>
body.
By the way, the candidates for the
Legislature seem to be afraid to come
out on the bond compromise. Why?
They must speak out, or the people
should lay them on the shelf. The
Board of Supe rvisors had no power
to give the peoples money to Moore's
bondsmen. It cannot be done, legally,
and the compromise, or gift, is incom
plete unless the next Legislature endor-
SEES and ~ratifies the act. Now look out
for a candidate who will lend himself to
this scheme. Is there a. candidate
in the field that IN any way endorses
this compromise? Speak out, gentlemen
the people must know where you stand.
They demand a candidate who has
made up his mind on this question.

a negro, arrived in this city from Yazoo
county. They had interviews with Gov.
Stone on Monday, and again yesterday

formed him that he must withdraw from

Congressman Ryan, of the Third

draw and no prospect for the future but
to subsist on an uncertain charity.

Total Depravity.

Some one has said their is NJ homes
ty in politics and he has about told the
truth. This saying is well illustrated
by a case in Cincinnati. One Andersen
killed a white girl in broad open day
light. Anderson was tried, convicted
of manslaughter and sentenced to the
.penitentiary ten years, when he should
have been hung. His brother wanted
him pardoned and consulted some of
his Republican friends. He promised
to give the sixth ward of Cincinnati to
the party securing the pardon. The
Republicans said Anderson should be
pardoned a%s..soou as Foster vas elected.
The Democrats heard of this and agreed
to induce Gov. Bishop TO release the
murderer if the Andersons would on
troll the sixth ward for Ewing. The
trade was made and the criminal turn
ed loose. THIS act should fore yer kill
every man connected with it.
