the Madri.Gras celebration ut New Or
leans, has adjourned. Its mission was
to Investigate the killing of Mathews
on election day in Copiah county. The
homicide and the action of the people
in approving of it. at a public meeting,
have been regarded by men of all par
ties us something hardly to be account
ed for. The testimony of Judge Mil

county and Republican, and of Judge
Wharton, also of the Circuit Court, of
Judge Cooper of the Supreme Court of

of Immigration, and others, throws n
very clear light on the hitherto mex
plicable tragedy. The man had made
himself terror to peaceable citizens.
He was perpetual menace to the lives
of those to whom he is inimical. He
had threatened the lives of any and
everybody almost indiscriminately,
and was regarded as character likely
to execute his threats at any time. His
death, under the circumstances, WAS
one of those acts of lawless violence
from which no part of the country
seems exempt, and which command
from the unthinking certain kind Of
approval.

How Republicans Garry Elections
in Charlotte Precinct, Old Vir.
gInia.
Mr.. LunsfOrd Deford was born and
raised in West township, in this coun-
tv, but soon after the war he moved to
Charlotte, Virginia. Being on visit
tO his old home few weeks ago, some
friends were prompted from curiosity
to know how the Republicans carried
the election in that precinct, knowing
that Mr.. DeFOrd is Republican. On
that question he made the following
statement in the presence OF several
witnesses:
MY precinct had always been Dem
ocratic, but after consulting W'th sew
eral Republicans, we agreed to try the
experiment of carrying the precinct
for our candidates. One of my sons
had charge of the ballots as judge OF
the election, while aud my other son
went to the polls early and heavily
armed, each OF us having shot guns
and levOlvers. AS the voters came uE
we told them how to vote; the result
was the Republican ticket had forty Of
majority"
He was told that it was generally
asserted by Republican editors thai
none but Democrats ever carried elec'
tiOns by that kind of "persuasion.' y
He said: 90, well, VIC have to do the
same"
He was then asked some questions
about the Danville riot of last Fall
20, yes, was there two days after
| wards. It was not a political affair al
all, although some tried hard to make
| that out of it. The riot was worked
up in the interest of some heavy deal
ers in shot guns, revOlvers, etc, so a.
to close out large invoice of them a
good round prices. One dealer told mt
that he sold 700 revolvers during the
racket, and another said he sold ! ,30t
revolvers with large lot of other arml
and ammunition"
AS Mr.. DeFord ia we'll known il
this county, his word would be takel
ON any subject. He completely dis
poses of the Danville riot matter, anC
John Sherman had better give 1t ul
and turn his attention to "wOol." u

The Effort TO DemonetIze silver

The Effort TO Dem OnetiZe silver.
That systematic and organized ef-
fort is being made to demonetize silver
is certain and undeniable. This comes
from three different sources; first, the
present Republican party second, the
national banks aud third, the foreign
influence from England and Germany.
There is an element in the Republican
party not in favor of this movement.
But that is wofully in the minority
aud has no control or leading influence
in that party, The nillionaires, the
controlling Republican politicians, and
national banks unite for the demOne-
tization of silver. And the foreign in
fiuence backing this movement is very
great. The tendency is to make the
rich richer, and the poor poorer, to
make gold the money of the rich, and
the paper debts, or promises to pay
money, the money of the poor. 1t is
time the people should wake up thor
oughly TO this insidious and nefarious
movement.
This is one of the questions which
must go into the approaching Presi-
Dental election. The Republican party
is engaged in the perfidious and anti
American policy to demonetize silver.

The main object of the tariff of the
Republican party is protection, making
revenue to support the Government
merely incidental or subordinate mat
ter, hence the collection from the peo-
ole of hundreds of millions of dollars
more than is needed for the expendi-
lures of the Government. On the
other hand, the object of the Democrat
ic tariff is reUenue to support the Gov
ernment, and the protection it affords
is simply incidental to the raising the
revenue. The one is tariff for protec
lion, the other is tariff for reUeHue. The
former makes revenue to support the
Government simply incidental to pro
lection, while the latter makes revenue
its object and protection where needed
and proper mere incident This Is the
precise difference between the two par
lies on this subject.
The amount of the expenditures Of
the Government being large, all the
protection needed and proper can be
afforded by protection simply inciden-
tai to revenue.
The Constitution gives no power to
Congress to levy tariff for protection
as its object. But the Constitution does
give power to raise revenue to support
the Government. And as Congress
has to select the articles on which the
impost is laid, and is bound in the ex
ercise of the powers granted to PRO
mote the general welfare." it is most clear
ly the duty of Congress, in selecting
the articles for the tariff, to dis
criminate with view to promote the
general welfare, by atfording protection
and encouragement to home productive
industry and labor when needed, anu
in proper manner. This has been
the Democratic doctrine since the days
of Jefferson, Madison and Jackson.
Our country is country OF industry
and labor. The Democratic party has
been the great friend of the laborinl
classes, and of the equal and just rights
of all, To foster and encourage the
home productive industries of th'
country against the lOw.priced labO
of Europe has always been an objec
of the Democracy. The new tangled
idea of free trade, or tariff for revenue
that excludes and precludes all protec
ton and encouragement to home pro
duction and labor. is in the interest o
the Republican party. 1t is not Dem
ocratic doctrine. There can be no sucl
thing as free trade W hile foreign ma
tions levy heavy duties on our export
which are taken to their markets
Free trade requires reciprocity between
nations. 1t would be absurd to re
move our tariff on imports from Eng
land while that country heavily take
; our exports there. The Golden FIRE
Trade Club is not in the interest of tn
people of the United States. And tn
phrase, :" a tariff for revenue only" is
device in favor of, and in the interes
of the present Republican party.
