Time TO Down Brakes.

To the Editor or THE REPUBLICAN:
What's the use of whooping it up for the Re-
publican party when Democrats are receiving the
Offices. am getting tired Of it. What's the mat
ter with members of our own party who have the
appointing power? Here's man just appointed
discussing officer and messenger of the Tariff
Commission who is a Democrat from Ohio. He's a
good fellow but there's hundreds of Republicans
who good fellows. Another man from Vir.
ginia, who was Union Navy officer in 1861, and
left 10 go South, became q commodore in the
rebel navy, and returned to retain his Bourbon
politics until the present time, has been appointed
superintendent of the construction of life-saving
stations on the Florida coust. Another Bourbon
lawyer, who went South during the war, has been
appointed Assistant Attorney General Of the
United States. Two other noted Democratic law
yers have been detailed prosecutors in the star
route cases. What good will these men do the
Republican party IN the coming political strng,
gle, North or South 1t is not lair. I'm tired OF

THE FOURTH OF JULY,
MissiasIppi's Champion idiot ExprcSsc


some Views" ON the Day.
II Is matter Of qualification 10 us that Judge
Tefrall yesterday proceeded on the even tenor Of
his way in conducting the business Of his court
without stopping to pay respect to Fourth of July
foolishness. In oden times, before the United
States government had made 1t legal holiday,
the Southern people Of their own accord had that
respect for the "day we celebrate" that, without
the admontiou OF a United States statute they
celebrated Fourth OF July in royal style. OF their
own accord they made II joyous holiday, I'm which
the master, the man servant, aud the maid servant
ceased their labors and made 1t n day of revelry
and joyousncss In honor of American independence
of foreign government Since 1t has lost its sig
niHcance the Southern people have lost interest
in the day. Since we have been living for years
under government more foreign to lis than
ever the British was to the colonists, and more
tyrannicnl the common sense discerns that II Is
the veriest mockery TO celebrate Independence
Day by those who have lost independence In fact,
and much, we fear, in thought and feeling. The
Southern people look their situation square In the
fnce, and prefer the status quo, when intelligent,
civilized Caucasian royalty ruled over the Cau-
casan coonsts, to the present rule Of possibly,
the descendants of African princes. To-day the
head of the Nation is schcming to Africanize Mis-
sissippi In the halls of Congress to every possible
extent, in the hope of humilating and degrading
its white men and women. Fourth of July is
day for Yankees and negroes IN the South to cele.
brate, but 1t has lost its significance for u.s. 10 us
the bnzzard is filter emblem of the filthy gov.
ernment that makes fellow citizens of people of
African descent, and to the utmost OF its power
now puts them above the white men. We notice
that Judge Young, over at Nicksburg, stopped off
his court in honor of The day. That is well enough
there, where the nigger power is In tue ascend
and don't do that way. A State court is not
bound 70 respect a United States holiday, and
don't. We proceed here on the even tenor OF our
way, preierfing business before lhe questionable

If the parties interested in the last will and
testament of the assassin Guiteau believed he Was
insane why do they seek to prove its validity and
profit by its terms? Does the last will and tesla
ment Of an insane person amount to anything?
Law and common sense say no. Their conduct in
the premises gives the lie direct 10 their pro-

being less sincere and more cranky and shallow
