Since the people of the North first began
to suspect the extent of Southern intolerance
toward Republicans whether whites or
blacks no disclosure has sent such thrill
through the country as the straightforward
and circumstantial narrative of Mrs. Chisom,
published the other day by The TRIBUNE.
1t is safe 10 say that no man OF either party
read this extraordinary story without being
overwhelmed by sense of its terrible
truth, nor without being filed with in
dignatiOn and horror at the preparation OF
this most barbarous Political murder Not
a voice has been raised anywhere to dis
putc the statements of this cruelly-wronged
woman, for they carried with them the best
evidence of their truthfulness. The paper
has all the dignity of an Gnte-mortem state
ment. Mrs. Chisolm prepared 1t, Iii the fear
thar she might not live to give her testimony
and left II with The TRIBUNE before start
ing to attend the trial Of Gully. Every line
of it must have been written with the con-
sciOusncss that it might be her last declara-
ton to the world of the great wrong she had
suffered at the hands of the gentlemen
murderers of Mississippi. The soemnity OF
her tone is q guarantee, if any were needed
of the spirit in which the narrative was
written The remarkable degree of inter
est with which it has been received through
out the country has induced TIE TRIBUNE
to rcpublish it entire in Il convenient Extra,
price five cents, which is now ready for sale.
The acQuittal Of Gully in the face or MIS-.
Chisoms testimony, and with the approval OF
the entire community where her husband ana
her beautiful boy and her noble daughter Cor
nelia were butchered. simply because Judge
Chisolm was Republican. puts the last touch
upon this dreadful story. Let every man
read il who would know by what hellish de-
vices Republican States in the South are made
and kept Democratic.

A correspondent writing from Columbus
shows how pitiful a figure Senator Thurman
makes supporting General Ewing, the cham
mon Ohio milationist and his own chief rival.
Thurman has evidently lost the respect of his
own party. He is too old man 10 undertake
the feat of turning somersaults over his own
record, and the people who last year applauded
his grotesquc antics are Indifferent to them
now, and will have no sympathy when he is
lett sDrawling in the dust and his more sup
pie competitors wTest from him the prize of
party leadership.

Further details concerning the shooting of
the Blackvile Postmaster show that if the
shot had been better aimed the outrage might
have taken rank with the murder of
Dixon. The former incumbent of the posi-
ton was removed for incompetency and i'm
proper performance of duty, fully established by
a long report To the Post Office Department
made by one of its special agents. The
appointment of Nix. colored man, was
decply resented by the Democrats, and
Senator Butler made charges of incapacity
Against the man winch his own letters
Just received at the Department aud describ-
ing the attempt to assasSlnate him, aIe enough
to dispr0ve The shooting was done without
particle OF provocatiOn; cOolly. de-
liberately, in broad day. The ann was
bad. or this would have been another
tragedy. The Democratic local officials
refuse all redress 10 the wounded postmaster,
and all that can be done, apparently. is 10
close the post-oiiice and punish the Demo-
cratic assassins of Blackyille by the mild
process of decreasing their mail facilities.
How long must these things continue in
civilized country

Governor Robinson is anxious to coniine the cam

And still the tendency to harmony in the
Democratic party does not increase at any
alarming rate. At the meeting of the Demo-
cratic State Committee yesterday the Tam
many members were present but their names

fused to recognize them as members. They

II did rot need Factotum Thompsou's unguarded
admission to Miles Ross to convince any careful
observer Of the Ohio Democratic canvass that Thur

That has been apparent from the opening of the
campaign. Thurman Is doing indirectly in Ohio
what John Kelly Is doing openly in this State
