Huntsville gazette., 1884-08-09
tions were obtruded upon him.

va . iSSoAo
Ans.-I was not much surprised.
Hon. DAVID D. SHELLEY,
our polished and able State Senator,
with his usual courtesy laid aside his
work as the GAZETTE man confronted
him in his handsomely furnished law
Office on the East side Of the public
square. He was asked
Odd the result take you by sur
prise, as it seems to have astonished
the public quite generally
Ans.-I prefer not to discuss that
question just now.
Q.-How will it effect the Novem-
Der election in this county.
Ans.-Not at ALL think the
county will 60 for Blaine and Logan.
MARSHAL HINDs
contracted his eyebrows and put on
his studying cap as his attention was
called from his evenings mail to the
wants Of the great public which has to
depend on the great and good GA
zETTE for a reflection of the times and
current news as they exist
Q.-What is your opinion Of the
Democratic success in Madison ?
Ans.-From what stand point ?
Q.-What caused it Z?
Ans.-A combination Of circum-
stances. We have been deceived.
Many whom we were expecting to
vote with us, voted the Democratic
ticket. When white Republicans vo-
ted against the ticket or scratched it
as they did, do not think it leaves
us room to raise the black flag against
colored Republicans alone, or to make
wholesale reflections on the colored
voters. Then again while Implicit
faith is put in the correctness of the
count at this box and generally of
other precincts the opinion prevails
that wrong was done us at several
Of the outer boxes. But notwith-
standing I think the county is safe
for Blaine and Logan in November.
JAS. Z. Daniels, Esq, of Maysville,
looking stout and brave was in the
city Tuesday. He is the shield and
pillar of the opposition in his section.
He looked indignant.
Q.-What do you think of the re-
suit
Ans,-I hardly know what to think.
Maysville stood up bravely and by
hard work we carried the box with
an increased majority. We don't
have any foolishness there. / think
this cry Of 'fcount out has worn out,
and will do us 40 good. Let it be
stopped, and if it is really b, lieved
there has been fraud at. say Whites
burg or Lanier's, or any box, l,t
one beselected, cases made out against
them in our State courts and the
whole thinglegally exposed and held
up to the world.

Capt John w. Raines was found in
the U. S. Marshal's Office bravely
tackliDg long columns Of figures in
tedious reports. All be wished to
say Was said shortly.
Q.-Caot. What do you think is
the matter with politics ?
Ans.-I think Mr.. Kaufman did it.
CROOKED.
Mr.. Hugh L. Toney was looking
around town Wednesday and the GA
zETTE representative stumbled upon
him.
Q.-How Go you feel Mr.. Toney ?
Ans.-Quite well.
@. What do you think of things ?
Ans.-Its astonishing. I think it
