1t seems that the republicans OF
this county were not very we'll pleased
with the result of the late election.
They might have mentioned the fact
sooner, but perhaps they wanted time
TO ponder over the matter. Their
grievances are set forth in the form of
campaign document which appears
in both of the morning pa
pers. 1t would make about
two solid columns in the
LEDGER, AS we are not publishing a
republican campaign paper, or doing a
free advertising business for the
bloody shirt committee, we refer all
who desire to read up the kind of lit
erature they are manufacturing for
northern use, to our liberal minded
contemporaries who give it as a matter
of news, or as some of our contributors
with thirty page manuscript on the
beauties of fspring, would say some
thing to fill up" The substance of it
is that they were badly defeated in
their effort to foist Ed. Shaw on the
county as its chief executive officer,
and whilst not ashamed Of it, they are
beginning to get mad and swear it
was not done fairly. Their
only revenge is to get up
a yarn of this kind, and have it pub
lished in some of the northern papers.
They were defeated fairly and square
ly, and always will be when they at.
tempt such game as this last one.
They know that the city swarmed
with repeaters, recruited from Mis-
sissippi and Arkansas, and many of
them swore so positively to residence
in the city, and had troops
of witnesses to prove it that
the judges felt compelled to take
their votes. We are positive about
this, especially in the seventh ward,
complained of. A number of colored
field hands voted there that none Of
the old white residents remembered
to have ever seen before. Some OF
them could not tell their own names
alike twice, as they were evidently try
ing to vote underan alias Several voted
as the records will show, whose names
do not appear on the census book
The disgruntled republicans seem tc
forget that one thousand or more col.
ored men in this city walked up anG
voted the open, straight democratic
ticket without scratch. The white
leaders are losing their control be
cause they appeal simply to the igno
rance and the old prejpdices O
the colored people, who, undel
democratic rule are becoming NOR,
intelligent and better informed as t,
their interests every year, That il
the real trouble with the partisan
white leaders, and they may as vel
accept the situation. We will quot
one sentence to show the reckless
mendacious spirit of these men:
Republican government does no
exist in Shelby county, nor in fact il
the whole south. The people ar,
governed by a lawless aristocracy
under the name of democracy.
If that were really true, and the peo
pleareso lawless, how isit that they cal
| faunt such insults in the face Of tn
public, and still walk the streets AM
go where they please, day or night
unmolested and in perfect safety
The very fact that they come and g
as they please, after deliberately Sian
dering and attempting to injure th
whole community, is the strong
est contradiction TO their brazeI
charges. We begin to think tha
Shaw is not by any means the wors

A NASHVILLE special to the Ap-

mind is made up as to a course to
pursue, nothing could change him,

THE BRIBERY CHARGES.
Clark Of Nobleboro Says He
Was Offered a Custom House
Appointment.
He Refuses to Give the Name of
the Man That Offered 1t.
SWAN CONTRADICTED.

AUGUSTA, Jan. 15.-The bribery committee
of tho House held meeting this afternoon.
Mr.. Clark, Greenback counted-in member of
the House from Nobleboro, testified that week
before the meeting of the Legislature his
brother came to him and informed him that
certain man wanted him to so and see him and
tell him if he would resign his position and
give up his certificate, he should have a good
place in the Boston custom house as long as
the Republican party was in power. A few
days after man came to see him, whose name
he positively refuses to give, and renewed the
offer of a place in the custom house, and also
$1,000 in money, $500 down and $500 more af-
ter the organization of the Legislature. He
positively refused and the man wanted him
to come afterwards to his house in Augusta
The man said the money offered was his own.
Mr.. Clark was pressed exceedingly hard to
give the mans name, but positively refused.
Alfred S. Kimball, County Attorney of Ok
ford, was the next witness. He said he saw
Swan in the Augusta House Monday night OF
the organization, and Swan told him that he
had been informed they were making offers to
buy Representatives; that he was going into it
and make some money and expose them; saw
Swan again at noon the next day and he
showed me a roll of bills which he said he had
received from Wallace R. White if he would
resign his seat in the House.
This is contradictory of Swans affidavit
wher Elm he says that he went from the court
house where he received the money to the
Granite National Bank and obtained draft.
