, The extract referred to was published in the
New York Tribune of october 0, taken from the

porting to be an extract from speech of Wade
Hampton as follows;
Mr. John Sherman the secretary of the treasury,
said some time ago thut the people were called
upon to surrender all they possessed to Wade

Ing him If he used this language. His answer was
nting my name with the ku.kux; and say now
in public MS wrote him in private, that when he
made that statement he said what was fnlSe and
what he knew at tho time was false. 10 has come
to Il pretty pass, my cOuntrymcn, when man
elected to congress and honestly striving to do his
duty under the constitution can have these base

They are like the athlete rldiculed by an ancient

themselves of all power TO hit back by virtual in

Their position on the tariff question has become as
helpless as 1t Is humillating. Driven from tho

A DisSracefui Affair.

Many of our citizens are aware that
for some time past there has been ILL
feeling between John Mckay, a well
known citizen of Cheboygan, and John
L. Smith, of Mackinaw county, growing
out of business transactions on the north
shore, about the merits of which we
know nothing. Last Tuesday morning
the two met upon Main street and the
matter eliminated in Mckay allowing
his feelings to get away with his judg-
ment and his making a brutal attack
upon Smith, who, we are informed by
eye witnesses, offered no prOyOcatiOn nor
made no resistance whatever. Mr.. Smith
was severely punished. He proceeded
to get out warrant for the arrest of
Mckay upon the charge of assault and
battery. In answer to the warrant the
latter appeared before Justice Sutton
where he plead not guilty, stated that he
had much business on hand and was not
prepared to make statement, but would
be, in about ten days, and asked for a
continuance. This, Justice Sutton, by
the advice and with the consent of James
]. Brown, Prosecuting Attorney, granted,
putting it over until next Tuesday, re-
leasing the prisoner without requiring
any bail, or SO much as asking MIR.
Smith if the time allowed Mckay was
convenient for him.
We do not blame Mckay for this. 1t
was natural that he, if not ready for
trial, should desire an adjournment un-
til such time as he would be prepared,
but we would like to ask the voters of
ChebOygan 'county if they believe in
this kind of justice. Had it been some
laboring man arrested for some minor
offense, do you think such leniency
would have been shown? All know that
such has not been the case. The Judge
would have insisted upon trial at once
and if convicted the judgment would
have been $500 or $1,000 fine and 3.29
cost, or term in the county Jail.
Mr.. Mckay is well known citizen
and we presume would have had no diff
ficulty in securing bail and it would
not have been hardship to him had
it been required. We have no doubt but
he will put in an appearance at the
time to which the continuance was
made, but that is not the question. We
do not believe in having two rules gov
erning the action of the prosecuting
attorney and justice. We believe in
equality before the law and in serving
all alike, and we believe that the voters
of ChebOygan will express the same
opinion at the polls on the End day of
November.

A New Village.

F. E. Martin has laid out village on
Indian river where his store is located
1t was surveyed and plated by Oliver S.
Hayden, the Republican candidate for
county surveyor, and the work shows
that he is proficient in this kind of work
and is highly creditable to Mr.. Hayden.
The village is located on the north and
south sides of the river where the Jack
son, Lansing & Saginaw railroad
crosses. 1t is in the midst of a good
farming section and will, doubtless, be-
come center of trade for a large extent
of territory. Mr.. Martin, as many know,
has quite an extensive store already
there, and is doing large business. He
is preparing to build good sized ware
house near his store for slowing hay
and feed, flour etc. The new village
will, without doubt, become an impOr-
tant station on the j. L. s.. s. railroad,
and will probably be the first station
out from ChebOygan.

Goodbye Hancock.

The result of Tuesdays election in Ohio
and Indiana exceeded the hopes of the
most sanguine Republican. Two years
ago the Democrats had a plurality of A.
118 in Indiana. The Legislature stood,
Senate, Democrats "a; Republicans %.
Greenbackers 8. House, Democrats so; Re-
publicans 80, Greenbackers IL. This was a
great odds against the Republicans, and
the Democrats were confident of victory,
so much so that they bOasted that if it
went Democratic it would settle the
Presidential question. The Republicans
went into the fight with the determina-
tion to win. They have made a hard
fight and the result is grand victory,
and Indiana joins the number of Re-
publican states whose electoral votes
Will be cast for Garfield and Arthur.
The result in Ohio is no less encourage
ing and that state gives one of its old
time majOrities, adds six congressman to
its Republican delegation and makes the
utter rOut of the Democrats only the more
complete. The result in these two great
states shows that the people of the north
are fully aroused to the Importance of
the contest in this campaign and settles
the question, virtually, as to the election
of Garfield and Arthur, the Republican
standard bearers. This was really the
first great battle of the campaign. Both
parties had their ablest men in the field
to direct the contest, and the Overwhelm-
ing defeat received by the Democracy, is
only the precursor of the complete ami
hilatiOn of that party. November second.
1t leaves the Democracy hopeless. The
Solid South cannot save them.
