ess are pleased to term the "bloody shirt
Eu,lss Of the Radicals, or, as the Wheel

haos carpet bagger. He is what the ma

Southemer-that is, person who doe
not 10 in for bull.dozing the negro and de
t1ailng him at the polls Of his vote
ndrhO sympatbizes with the Republi
anptty.
Hsnys that his county has a Republi-
usnijOdiy Of about 1890, but that such
hths terrorism that has been inspired BY
violence and fraud that the party has
petty much quit voting, and allowed thu
De1ocntic bulldolsrs and tissue ballot
safen to have their own sweet way. he
rnnksd whether the claims Of the Dem
oe1tit papers that the negroes voluntarily
N!e the Democratic ticket is true, ant
b replied that it was far enough from be-
tnstus. They are Republicans almost to
asNy lat voter among them, and the
tshtOIa Democratic negro voter Is one OF
ssWg nrsst kind. He knew of two
HssOes who we're called Democratic
rien, Who carried two sets OF tickets to
SsPds as blind, but when about Il
deposit their ballots took good care to pu
hhe Republican ticket. This they dic
tauths necessity oftheir surroundings
RVssOuld easily show II 1t was just o
Fudsnt'O par.icularize them.
w. Boone fully confirms the storiei
io1t the violence and blood shed tha
hnn alarmingly paralyzed the opposi

Tvs not an unusual thing some tim
E'!br the Democrats to arrange row q
