Guiteau's recent letter, in which he
demands san unconditional pardon or
nothing" has been characterized by
some persons rs arrogant. 1t seems,
however, upon reflection to be the most
modest of his many efiusions. The
alternative which he suggests in the
same breath as the unconditional par
don" should be granted to him by every
one who believes in giving petitioner
what he asks for. AS, in The case of
the deccase OF somewhat pompons
parsonage, an appreciatiye editor wrote
of him in his obituary that "h:s motto in
life was to be Cesar or nobody, and he
lived up TO il, although he never was
Ca sar"-so it is likely TO be rccol ded
of Guieau, that when he asked for an
unconditional pardon or nothing he
was Immediately accommodated; but
he never got the pardon.

Citizen-Extra Report.

Some of the first election returns
especially from the 18th district
were not correct; hence the errors
in the report as published in the
CITIZEN Extra of Friday last. Sub
seuuent returns did not change the
general result in any particular,
however. All the officers shown to
be elected by that report were real
ly elected, some by larger and some
by a little smaller majorities. These
immaterial inaccuracies were not
ours, and could not well have been
avoided. The Extra was issued in
great haste, merely for the benefit
of our subscribers, was furnished to
them free of charge, and did not
claim to be "strictly correct" No
other paper in the state furnished
its readers so full report half so
soon after the election. Before
noon Friday our Extras were ready
for distribution, with a report show
ing in every instance who were the
officers elect, and approx
mately" the number of votes re-
ceived by each. We give in this
issue the approved official returns.
The other was only personal reports
and did not purport to be exactly
correct.

A part of the call elsewhere upon
this gentleman to allow his name to
come before the convention to nom
mate a candidate for state senator
from Giles and Lincoln makes its
necessary for US to arise to an ex-
PLANTATION. 1t has not been our
habit to espouse any one man
cause before a convention where
several of our friends may seek pre-
ferment. We recognize the weight
of the reason given why we should
do so, and it does no disparagement
to any one else who may aspire to
say that we coincide in the opinion
that Mr.. Pearcy has rendered very
great service, and we further be
lieve that it ought not to go unrec
ognized in some way. We cannot
90 to the extent of actually urging
his nomination until we know that
other good friends are not to offer
for it, but we can say In candor
that his election would be merited
and we believe he would serve the
people ably and cOurageously. The
people all know him and we appre-
bend that it needs no urging upon
our part to induce them to believe
that he is able to serve them and
well merits their confidence.

Mrs. Harriet Neal died the 4th inst.
Her remains were inferred in the

about . p. IN. There never lived a
woman more loved and deserving
of love by friends and acquaintan-

absolutely untainted with blemish,
always cheerful, adectionate, con-
fiding, tender and loving, rendered
her especially lovable, and her life
was filed in with good deeds and
and kind words and an exhibition
of afTectionate tenderness towards
all with whom she had to do. Death
found her willing and ready TO go.
In the midst of life we are in death.

Gall on Mr.. PearcY.

Having confidence in the integrity
and democracy -four fellow citizen, Mr..
j. l.. Pearcy, and knowing that his
ideas upon the current issues coincide
with those entertained by the people
generally, and believing him eminently
capable to perform the duties of the Of
flee to the best interest of the people,
we respectfully call upon him to an
nounce himself candidate for the
state senate from Giles and Lincoln.
He has rendered the party valiant and
able services for two years past in his
capacity as chairman of the executive
committee, proving his devotion to de-
mocracy and the people, and we believe
that the eXigencies of this critical juno
ture demand the services Of a man who
rendered efficient work when it was
needed and never lost opportunity to
advance the standard of the party.
Such a man is j. L. Pearcy, and we be-
lieve the time has come when men
should be rewarded for what they have
done and are able to do, rather than for
promises which the past has shown may
never be fulfilled. We respectfully urge
the county papers to assist US in secur-
iug his services and thus reward his
fidelity, and if he will allow his name
to go before the convention we promise
hiR the support of
MANY VOTERS.

Tribute to Wills Morley.

At meeting Of the comrades and
friends of the late Willis Morley, held
Aug. 9TH at the office of j. j. Phillips,
the following action was had.
Willis Morley was born and raised in
Giles county. Up to the war his life
was aiquiet one, being spent in farming.
The call OF his state met the same
response from him as it did from so
many thousand brave spirits who have
preceded him to their final home. He
was elected Capt. of company A, 32nd
Init, and served one year, going
through the battle OF Donaldson. His
health failed and he returned home
After the war he continued to farm and
was elected to the legislature in 1873.
His membership was not marked by
brilliant effort, but he was constantly
at his post and protected the interests
of his constituents. His name was al
ways the SYNONYM for truth and fair
dealing, and his life was one of purity
and uprightness. No man had greater
horror of a mean act or more contemp pit
for one who did little thing.
Therefore be it Resolved, That in his
death a worthy citizen and good man
has fallen.
Resolved, That we can point with
pride TO his life as containing much that
marked him as a man among men and
as being worthy OF emulation by our
youth, aud his integrity, industry and
high moral purpose is to them for an
example, the following of which will
lead to success.
Resolved, That we tender to his
| family our sympathies in their loss and
request our county papers TO publish
these resolutions and preamble.

marriage, and older men who know

ter the estate of bliss, to investi
gate it. The business is patrOnized
very largely by the older and think
ing men who can see the outcome
there may be in it, and Mr.. Mccall
lum is receiving applications from
them continually. We would like
to see these home companies pros
per and they are prospecting, and
we believe that they should be Civ

build up home enterprise while you
are benefitting yourself. The bust
ness is growing enormously every
where. Mr.. McCallum will travel
over the county some but will be
detained in town most of the time.

better see him. 1t pays best in this

hurry with your application at once.
