LYNCHING IN ST. HELENA
PARISH.

About a week ago Jake Tucker,
eplored man, was arrested in Can
ton, Mississippi, charged with tie
murder of Mr.. Abe Frazier, a white
man, in st. Helena parish, in April,
1916, and taken to the st. Helena
parish jail, where he vas confined
to await his trial. Last Sunday
morning, about two o'clock, a body
of fourteen or fifteen men rode into
Greensburg. and going to Mr..
Purley's blacksmith shop, woke
him up and compelled him to give
them drills and such other tools as
they needed to break open the Jail.
Taking Purley with them they went
to the jail, and began to hammer
away at the doors. There age two
doors to the jail, one of which is
wooden and the other iron.
After working for some time they
succeeded in breaking open the
Jail. Several pistols were fired at
Tucker, who was wounded by one
of them. Purley asked them not to
kill the prisoner in the Jail, hut if
they were determined on his death
to take him somewhere else. This
they agreed to, and Tucker was
marched out on the public road,
about mile from town, where he
was lynched.
Mr.. Frazier. the man who was
killed by Tucker, and for which
crime he was under arrest, was q
resident of st. Helena parish, and
lived in the upper portion, near
Tangipahoa and the Mississippi
line, and not far from the home of
Phillips, the young man who was
robbed and mnFdered by negroes
in the town of Tangipahoa, on last
Christmas eve. These negroes, it
will be remembered, were confined
in the Amite City Jail, whence they
were taken by an armed body of
men. in January last, and lynched.
1t is surmised that the men engaged
in The lynching of Tucker last Sun
day We're some of the same party
that did the lynching in Taagipahoa
parish.

WILL A. STRONG, Secretary of State,
St. Tammany farmer. [volume] (Covington, La.) 1874-current, 1880-04-17

Tammany Hall has agreed to th,
proposition made by the Demo
cratic Union of New York, for 4,
conference. with view of har
monizing the difference existing il
the party in that State. If botl
factions will endeavor to exercise a
little common sense, and can be
taught to realize the fact that the
contest next November, between the
Republican and Democratic candi-
dates for President, is of far more
Importance to the great mass of the
people, and especially to the
Democracy throughout the Union,
than any local question within the
circle of the Tammany and Anti
Tammany rings, then the confer
ence may result in spme good.
New York, which should be the
strongest Democratic State i'll the
Union, is now the weakest, and
will continue to be classed MS doubt
full, SO long as her leaders stand
in the way of the National Demo
cratic party, like bump on log,
instead of coming out like men and
true Democrats, and putting their
shoulders to the wheel for the COM
mon good. In short, let them unite
in sending delegates to the Cincin-
natl Contention, and unite in sup
porting the Democratic nominee,
whoever he may be,"-tlough it
may not be ''boss Tilden" nor "boss
Kelley" or any other ring 'boss.'
