The Chicago Tribune prints reply
from Will H. Herman, late associate
editor of the Okolona (diss.) States,
to the resolutions of a recent meeting
of respectable citizens of Okolona, in
which. he was denounced as "literary
tramp and mendicant," the "paid hire
ling and pimp of Radicalism," born
in Ohio and sent to Mississippi in 1876
as Radical emissary." Herman hav-
ing been discovered in his true char
acter, has left the State of Mississippi,
and writes letter to the Chicago pa
per denouncing the citizens of Okolo-
ma who took part in the recent meet
ings as "liars, towards, vagabonds, lib
ertines, gamblers and social outlaws" !"
This settles Kernan's character pref
ty conlusively. He pretended to be a
violent and untamed secessionist, and
to speak for the people of the South;
but the fact that he has left Mississip-
pi, after having become stencil in the
nostrils of the people, and that he sends
his last letter to a Chicago Republican
paper, shows that he has found his
proper place at last.

From the N. Y. Sun. eE
In 1875 the redoubtable Fitzpatrick
was striving la vain y get ug politi.
cal revival In midland. Dishtaf
at the feeble effect produced by his
speeches, he wrote to Hayes that the
thing needed was "bloody shirt CAM
paign and plenty of money"
That was the Republican cry in 1868
and i'm 1872, when Grant was the can
didate. And now i'm $780, fifteen years
after the close Of the civil war, when
rybody wants peace, but those poll
ticians who live by agitation, the old
cry is revived and intensified.
And should the organization survive
until 1884, the Logans, the Blaines, the
Jewels, the Conklings, and other stall
warts will be found rehashing the same
stories and preaching anew the gospel
of hate.
The election of Gen. Hancock would
soon finish this sectional crusade, which
has been kept up solely in the interest
of leaders that would fall into obscurity
without it. Hundreds of millions OF
dollars would not pay the money cost
of partisan agitation, whose fruits are
discord and distrust between the North
and the South, To the serious interrupt

Merchants, manufacturers, and me-
chanics have all felt the damaging eff
fects of pernicious contention, the aim
of which is to keep people apart who
ought to be united and engaged In the
common work of extending the nation
al prosperity. The managers of the Re-
publican party rely exclusively upon
this sectional Issue as their last hope Of
retaining possession of power.
But they were left in q great minori-
ty upon that test in 1876, and unless all
the signs are false that minority will be
still greater in 1880.

Aid to Our Friends.

So far as Missouri is concerned, the
Democracy needs no further organiza-
ton than that necessary to put into
nomination the candidates whose cleo
ton is sure to succeed in November.
But closer organization is necessary
to enable us to extend help to our
friends in the closer and doubtful
States, and if we do not extend that
far short of performing our whole duty.
We believe in Democratic principles;
we hold that the ascendancy of the De-
mocracy in the National Government
would result in great good to all the
people; we profess that the continu-
ance of the Republican party in power
would virtually endorse all it's helm
Gus crimes, and render selfgovernment
insecure, if not wholly destroy it,
With these professions, we are called
upon, on principle, to do all that may
be honestly done, to bring about the
desired end. Let US therefore bind
ourselves together in still closer union,
and extend to our brethren in Indiana
and Ohio and Illinois all the assistance
in our power-and let us 60 to work at
once. There is danger in delay. We
call upon our Democratic friends in
every township to form themselves in
to Hancock and English clubs. Do

The Truth Precisely.

From Hendricks Speech, at Marion, md.
Garfield's nomination means the en-
dorsement and approval in the most
positive and offensive manner possible
of the Presidential fraud of 1867. He
had more to do with it than any other
man, and was the only man who occu-
pied toward it a double relation. After
the election Garfield went to New Or
leans by request of Gen. Grant, with
out authority of law, as a PARTISAN.
He went there to assist his party i'm
making up case, and after his return
to Washington, of all his associates he
was the only man who took his seat
upon the Electoral Commission. BY
every sentiment of fair play he should
have been excluded from the jury box.
By his own sworn statement of what
he did in New Orleons, Garfield had
charge of the returns from West Felic-
lana Parish. In one of the inner rooms
of Packard's Custom House he did his
work, and examined the affidavits,
and when they were not sufficiently
full, he prepared or had prepared ad-
ditional interogatories to bring them
within the rules adopted by the Return
ing Board. The testimony, SO received
by Garfield, went back to the Return
ing Board, and the result was that
West Feliciana with its Democratic
majority was thrown out. In WASH
ington, Garfield's vote was that Con-
gress could not GO behind the returns
thus made, AS agent for his party he
helped to make returns by manipulate
ing the evidence; and as juryman for
the nation he held such evidence as
conclusive and binding.
