Madison times. (Tallulah, Madison Parish, La.) 1884-1???, 1884-10-04

Gentlemen-Having read the call
for a mass meeting of the citizens of
the Parish--published in the Vicks-
burg Herald Of this date. which said
call purports to be signed by your
President officially and at the request
of two members Of the committee, with |
whom said President concurs; no
meeting of said committee in reference
thereto having been held or called and |
no action having been taken therein
by said committee. The issuing Of said
call was in my humble opinion an indi-
vidual attempt to exercise the powers
Of the committee unauthorized and
binding only upon three members Of
the Democratic party in said parish to-
wit: the one who signed and the two
who petitioned for said call. Believ-
ing this and at the same time recognize
ing the fact that it would be impossible
for the committee TO properly and sue
cessfully perform its duties without
that perfect accord and unity Of action
which it would be unreasonable now to
expect, feel that would be untrue
to the trust imposed by my appoint
ment and unjust to myself to remain
longer q member Of your committee.
l therefore tender my resignation and
request that the same be accepted inn
mediately. Very respectfully,
JEo. B. STONE.
Mr.. Crsndell moved that the chair.
