HowlWE APPLES SWIM!

Since Connelley, Of We The Peo-
pie. has got on the right side. heis
singing himself around loose. and
it is intensely amusing to hear him
rant. He has just found out that
the State is Democratic, and seems
to think that his recent stop" is a
more huge affair than Bnrke's MAJ
jority last fall at which time he
was tooth and toe-nail agaist every
thing Democratic. But now, since
he has "steppedfrom among carpet
bag Radical thieves and ofice-seek-
ing negro ummers. "and found that
sit is the duty Of every Southern
man to raise his voice against the
insults and impositions of these
ours, he is in for drawing the line"
against them. Well and bravely
said, friend; but doesn't thee
think thee art a little hard on Old

ones are ept to be suspicious of

bench. We have no fault to find,
however, and bid You God speed.
if you have really been "born
again." but it does occur to rs that
modesty should keep you back
until you have brought forth 'fruits
meet for repentance" Right here,
maybe, is our mistake. for we re-
collect as that no printer man was
ever yet guilty Of modesty.
