doing what they can to sustain the
Bourbon cause in Mississippi, and are
especially severe against General Chal-
mers. But then they are equally hostile
to Judge Folger, the Republican candi-
date for governor of New York. They
are doing as much as they dare TO do
against Malone, in view of their having
been for him last year. They are against
General Beaver, in Pennsylvania. In
Tact, they are merely carrying out the
lmpish 'Uirit which possesses the minds
of their conductors. If General Chal-
mers were the Bourbon candidate and
MIR. Manning the Independent candi-
date, all their anathemas would be for
Manning, while Chalmers would, in
their estimation, be a model of all that
is wise and good.
We hope our Republican friends in the
second district of Mississippi, when they
read in the Times and Tribune vicious at.
tacks upon General Chalmers, will realize
that those attacks are not intended for
him. but for the anti-Bourbon cause,
which he SO bravely and ably represents.
We ask them to realize that in 1872 the
Tribune led the fight for Greeley, and de-
Tended, by denying, every Ku-Klux out
| rage that had been committed in the
South. We call their attention to the
slander and abuse those papers
pour out on President Arthur,
and all others who are standing by
the cause of Liberty and Equal Rights
The reason for their malice is that when
they thought their blows would destroy
Arthur they fell upon him. The people
found they had shamelessly slandered
him and refused to follow them. Now
they are desperate, and, having nothing
to lose and their spite to crafty, they are
doing all they can to restore the Bour-
bons to power They pretend to be Re-
publican in order to retain influence in
the party to do it harm. But they are
doing all they can to defeat the Republi-
can party. The Washington f'oa and
they agree in all things, especially as to
Chalmers Can Mississippi Republicans
be deceived by them?
Then Mr.. Manning has secured the
support of a negro named Carter in a
manner which has been exposed in these
columns. This Carter appears to have
been hired by Manning's friends in this
city, and to have been shipped as fast
freight to the scene of action in. Missis-
sippi. There, it is said, he was received
by another hired man of Manning's and
taken to the latter's residence or Office.
Thence, after grooming, he emerged, and
with a Bourbon correspondent appeared
at the telegraph Office, from whence |
went to the Memphis Appeal SEN
sational dispatch announcing the
candidacy of Mr.. Manning's man
Carter as a "Straightout Republican"
Manning tried to buy negro nearer
home as his slave hound to whip the
negroes back into political slavery, but,
to the honor of the race be it said he
failed. Carter was sent for from West
ern Territory and shipped, as above
stated, to Manning's political plantation.
The following dispatch from sardis, Miss,
October 5, tells the story:
Settle, the colored orator and chairman of the
Republican Congressional committee, met Ham
Carter in debate at surdis last night, and COM
pletely overwhelmed him. 1t is all open secret
that important documents for Carter came to the
Holly Springs postoice to the of Manning, and
that Carter receives money every week from Holly
Springs, the Manning headquarters. In theirdebate
at Sardis Settle read the above from the St. Louis
Post Dispatch, and Carter did not deny it. Settle
further said 81 charge that distinguished col
ored Republican of Panola County was offered
81, 500 by Democrats to run an independent Re-
publican candidate for Congress, and refused.'
| After the debate between Settle and Carter the
vote was taken by rising. One colored and four
white men remained seated. The rest Of n large
| audience voted solid for Chalmers. The exposure
of the Carter trick disgused all honest men, white
| and black.
Mr.. Manning's industrious friends here
did not stop when they fixed up the
Carter trick. They appear to have been
able to convince the publisher of a
weekly paper in this city that the Union
soldiers of the United States are "hols-
ing" for Manning. Republicans of Mis-
sissippi, don't you believe it. The SOL
diers of the Union rejoice when any
soldier of the Confederacy is willing to
say " Your Union flag won. Grant did
not surrender; it was Lee. Lincoln
was the rightful President of great
Nation Davis was the chief of an un-
successful rebellion. The Bourbon De-
mocracy refuses to march on with the
spirit of the age, and l will march on
witho ut them"
This is what General Chalmers says.
This is what he will do. Let not malig-
nants or mercenaries deprive him of the
vote Of any man who would see the Bour-
bon King overlhrown, and equal rights
prevail in the State of Mississippi
An old enemy is better arith us than an
old friend against u.s. Paul was new
convert-Judas was an old disciple. The
Bourbon fox has no good in store for Re-
publican chickens. Carter, the Tines the
Tribune, and the Washington so-caled sol
dier paper are all doing work that helps
Manning, the fox. Heed no voice that
bids you aid the incorrigible and impla-
cable Bourbons TO retain power. First
destroy the Democratic party and all its
works, and all other things shall then
happen which will promote Liberty
Union, and Progress.
