1Tlne Election.
The Contest very Close.
Indiana, New Jersey, and Con-

majorities.
New York claimed by both sides.
The chances in favor of Cleve-
land.

The result of the election is still in
some doubt, though we believe that
Cleveland is elected Every southern
state, Indiana, New Jersey, Connecti-
cut and probably California, Nevada
and Wisconsin give democratic major
tiles. The result depends entirely upon
New York state, which is at present
claimed by both parties. 1T may not
be settled until the official count is
made. The news up to Thursday morn
ing is most encouraging and is based
on the following dispatches

Barksdale and Bailey at Brook
haven.


Owing to the nearness IF the hour for
going to press, we only mentioned in our
last issue the addresses of Messrs. Barks-
dale and Bailey at this place on the LIST
inst.
By Encouragement, Mr.. Bailey spoke
at IL o'clock a. m. and Maj. Barksdale at
10 in the evening, so that neither
speaker was pressed for time and had
ample opportunity ito do himself justice.
Mr.. Bailey's reputation as an orator
had preceded him and much was ex
pected. but the universal decision at the
close of his two hours speech was, that
the half had not been told. From begin
ming to end his address WIS bristling
with sound Democratic doctrine, and his
arraignment of the Republican candidates
ON their public records was both eloquent
and scathing.
When the hour arrived for Maj. Banks
dale's speech he was introduced to the
audience by Hon. r. II. Thompson,
Chairman of the County Democratic Ex-
ecutive Committee, as "the noblest Ro-
man of them ALL" and was greeted with
a hearty round of applause. After thank
his constituents for endorsing his official
course by o unanimous denomination to
the position to which he was elected two
years ago by popular majority of over
5000, he went on to show that the Con-
gressional contest is of little significance
as compared to that of the Presidential
struggle, in which is involved the ques-
ton of Constitutional freedom and the
protection of the laboring masses against
the pampered and privlledged classes fos-
tered by Republican legislation. Cited
the report of the Senate Committee sug-
costing hostile legislation toward the
South if deemed necessary, of what shape
the speaker could not tell, and urged
that Mississippi answer all the ISLANDERS
and prosecutions of her enemies by roll
ing up so, 600 majority for Clevelrnd and
Hendricks.
In the limited space allowed it is i'm
possible for us to follow Maj. Barksdale
in his lengthy and able address. In the
course of his remarks, he explained his
support of the Morrison tariff bill on the
ground that it was a party measure and
in accord with Democratic policy said
he would vote for the Blair educational
bill in It's present form, but oppose it if
subverted by amendment into an inter
ference with the internal affairs of the
States favored the Senate Bankrupt bill,
but will vote against the bill to pension
General Grant if he is the only member
to do so.
Maj. Barksdale closed his address by a
graceful recognition of the presence of
the ladies, who were out to hear him in
considerable numbers, paying the sex a
glowing tribute, and saying that woman
should be invited and encouraged to en-
tor all the lists where she may find hon
Orable employment.
Mr.. Bailey was again loudly called for
at the close of Maj. Barksdale's speech,
and reluctantly took the stand and deliv-
cred a short but stirring appeal to the
Democrats of Lincoln to harmonize and
go to work, and concluded with an elo-
quent compliment to the ladies.
Heuck's Hall was well filled morning
and night, the anvils thundered, and
much solid work was put in for the Dem
Ocratic cause.

was written in bold, easy hand, on a

Affirmed That whisky shops do no
harm, but much good, and that a town
without one is cursed with more crime
than town with one or two. In short,
that whisky shops are blessings, eleva-

in general. All this firmly believe and
