SNOW HILL, WILCOX COUNTY, ALA, Oct "a
This will inform you of what kind of antics are
being performed here by the Bourbon Democrats
There was one of the blackCst acts committed in
this vicinity that ever disgraced civilization. A
mob of white Bourbon Democrats, masked went
into the yard of 'Zeek" Furifoy and shot
several times through the door, While this was
going on "Zeek" Jumped out through the Win
dow. They caught him and carried him OIL aud
beat him almost 10 death, aud lett him i'll dying
condition. After q search of TWO days he was
found almost gone. They went in o the house OF
n man named Tome, and beat his wife while in
bed and calr lried oil her husband. He has moi
been heard of since. All this is being done t.
keep the people away from the polls on the day o
election. Why cannot something be done to put
Il stop to such outrage this? 1t is II shame and
u disgrace to republican government, The Bour.
bOns have turned out two-lliths of the coored
teachers in his county because they will not vote
the Bourbon Democratic ticket

The managers at the Democratic headquarters
were as industrious yesterday as ever, and they
lose no time in preparing for the final closing OF
the ranks The finance committee held a long

II is soid that the gentlemen whose names orna-
ment the county and legislative tickets have been
assessed us follows: Treasurer, $500; sheriff,

IT is enough to make horse laugh to
read in Washington papers the state
ments of "thoroughly reliable and clear
headed Bourbon Democrats" in refer
ence to the Virginia campaign. The
fact is that the Bourbons are without a
candidate for Congressman-at-large, and
have no hope whatever of electing more
than three members. These are not
conceded by the Liberals. The state
ment that "the Mahoneites want to have
more perfect understanding with De-
zendorf, Straighout Republicans" is the
most absurd of all. Libby will be elected
by 1000, and Dezendorf will receive
about 800 votes.
