The Brookhaven leader. [volume] (Brookhaven, Miss.) 1883-1891, 1884-10-09

Last Saturday was spent by US
among GUS frieRds and patrons at
Monticello. The attraction of the
day was the address of Senator
George, who is now engaged in
making thorough canvass OF
several southeastern counties.
A good sized and intelligent
audience of both ladies and gentle
men were out, to whom, OF the APP
pointed hour, the distinguished
speaker was introduced in fitting
terms by that gallant young Demo
crat, Hon. A. H. Longino.
AS to the speech, it was excep
tionally fine. Senator George, as he
says, is no orator, and we think il is
a good thing that he is not, other.
wise he might not be that clear
earnest, ponderous reasoner. that
his speeches mark him TO be, and
the place of which amount of fine
oratory could supply. His arraign
ment of the Republican party for its
class legislation in the interest OF
the National Banks, manufacturing
corporations and other monopolies
and also for its extravagant grants
of the public domain to railroads. in
which Mr.. Blaine was shown to have
taken q lively interest, was unan
swerable. In like manner he showed
up the inequalities and oppressive
ness of the present tariff system.
Gen. Georges position as a member
of the Senate Committee on Educa
ton and Labor has given him
peculiar facilities for the investiga.
ton and study of the tariff question
and his exposition of it, backed up
by solid facts and figures, is sure to
carry conviction to the mind OF
every honest listener.
The Senator expressed himself a
much pleased with the riney-woods
counties-a section of the State
never visited by him before-the
only serious drawback being the
excessively warm and dusty weather.
He left Monticello for Columbia,
where addressed another large gath
ering Monday.

A Bad Liar.

Hon. V. B. Watts is out in caro-
in reply to the paragraph publish
ed in last week LEADER from oul
Wesson correspondent, in which he
says: "PlCase allow me to say tc
the editor of The LEADER, the Yves,
son correspondent or any other
cloaker of that ilk, who says that ]
ever offered to barter, sell, or in any
wise make a trade about the post
Office at Wesson, is a narrow mind
ed, sap-beaded, foul-mouthed liar"
AS the editor Of The LEADER never
affirmed such thing either public
ly or in private, this fierce, pronged
lightning passes by him withou,
harm. Neither does it hit our cor
respondent, who impaired the in
formation as current report, which
it was at the time he wrote. 1t is
therefore difficult to tell exactly who
the ''narrowminded, sap headed,
foul mouthed liar" who started the
report is. 1t is sufficient to know,
however, that he is such a liar, and
to be assured In the above emphatic
language that our Representative
intends to put his shoulder to the
wheel and work for the election of
Barksdale and not Yellowly. Again
the joy of the Wesson Democracy
will know no bounds at being thus
assured from headquarters that they
are not TO be transported bodily
into the Republican camp. Now
let there be sweet repose.

Something That Will Bear Fruit.

We are in receipt Of 80 page
pamphlet, neatly printed and finely
illustrated, entitled, "The Sunny
South-Northern Seekers for South
ern Homes" which was compiled
tor the Illinois Central Railroad, b.,
J. +. Merry, General Passenger
Agent, at Manchester, Iowa. l,
contains fine maps of Kentucky,
Tcnne$seH, Mississippi AMI Louis
lana, and gives reliable Information
concerning the location, history,
products and gelercl advantages OF
every town Gf any Size on its exten-
sive line of road. Special proni
nence, howe> er, seems TO have been
given Mississippi, favoritism
which our people should highly APP
preciate. Besides bright pen sketches
of prominent places, handsome
and accurate illustrations are given
of Lyceum Hall and the Observatory
at Oxford, a cotton field neal
Grenada, the Railroad Machine
shops at Water Valley, the State
Capitol and Lunatic Asylum at
jackson, the entire town of Wesson,
and lastly Of Whitworth College, in
Guiding the new building.
We have often wondered why the
Management Of the Illinois Central
made no effort to people the coun-
try along their line by showing up
it's attractions and various resources,
and the judicious method now
adopted by their energetic and en-
terprising agent, j F, Merry, es-
pecially if persevered in, will result
IN an abundant harvest both to the
Illinois Central and the various
Southern States through which it
courses. So mote it be.

MEADVILLE NOTES.

MEADvILLE, Oct. 2pd, 1884.
DEAR LEApER:-Circuit Court met
here on Monday, 22nd day of September
and after a week and half of di.igent
and close application to business, ad-
journed this evening with the docket
pretty well cleared. The first day of the
term was taken up in discussing the po-
litical issues of the day by Messrs. Bal.
ley, BarEstlale and Yellowiy, who spoke
in the order of their names. | shall say
but little about the discussion, as the ed
itor of The LEADER was present and can
give bis views in the premises. l must
say, however, that have heard but one
opinion expressed from the mouths of
hundreds, in regard to the speech of Mr..
Bailey. he mastery handling of the Con-
stitution Of the United States and the is
sues of the present canvass, called forth
universal acclamations of praise and CON-
mendation, and fully satisfied every
Democrat with his standard bearer
The speech of Maj. Barks dale was what
we all expected it to be-a full and COM
plete expose of the issues of the day,
closing with a scathing arraignment of
the party in power.
On Tuesday morning at an carly hour
Court was organized aud proceeded to
business. Many cases were disposed of
that would be of no interest to the gener-
al reader. Two cases of felony were
tried, both resulting in conviction. San
dy Ellis, the liberty loving Sandy, the
pork-loving Sandy, got twelve months il
his, and Ed. Taylor, for shooting Martin
Carter, was let off with twelve months
in the Penitentiary. There were several
mitigating circumstances in Eds case
that shortened his term of service.
The general Jail delivery by the mob OF
Saturday night shortened the term of
court, rs well as the lives of four negroes.
On the reassembling of the court on
Monday last, Judge Chrisman called tn.
Grand Jury before him and delivered to
them one of the most pointed charges on
mObs and mob law, it has ever been my
pleasure to listen to, and delivered it in
that earnest, eloquent and convincing
the close of his lecture he called on them
to know who of them agreed with him,
and believed that the men who hung the
negroes were guilty of murder, and the
guards who were stationed by the Sheriff
at the Jail to guard it, and who surren-
dered to the mob without giving the
alarm, were guilty of manslaughter, and
all who would pledge themselves to use
their best endeavors to ferret ont the per-
petrators, to rise to their feet. All
promptly arose. There being but fifteen
men on the panel four more were added
to it who made the same pledge We are
bound to believe that they did give the
best investigation of the matter that the
time they had to sit wonld admit of, and
yet nothing could he elected that would
warrant them in finding a bill against
any one.
The reason why no bill could he found,
and the Brown Sullivan trial will be the
subject of my next communication.

Mrs. Geo. Gilbert, Bryan, Ohio, writes:
sDR. S. b. HARTMAN a. Co., Columbus,
Ohio: | commenced on the fifth bottle Of
your PERUNA this morning, and should
just as soon think Of doing without my
meals as without my medicine.
have been doctoring for about four
years, and kept getting worse all the
time and was Just giving up in despair
when got one of your books, The Ills
Of Life" Twas In bed at the time. i
read and re.read your book and felt like
trying your medicine. m folks thought
there was no use In trying anything more,
I was too far gone, and might as well
make up my mind to die. l told them
PERUNA was the medicine needed, and
I intended to try bottle. 1t proved a sue.
cess in breaking the chills, and If 1t had
not done one thing more, would have
been satisfied. But it has done more, and
! feel like another person. Everybody
that sees me is surprised to see me looking
60 we'll, as they all thought I was dying
with consumption, and now my own folks
have as much to say for the PERUNA as
I. recommend Il to everybody ! see.
There were two Of our neighbors in yes
terday inquiring about the PERUNA. /
gave the one my book to read; told her
to bring it back, as priced it very high
" The other got the name of the Pc
RuNA to send TO his son in Chicago. He
is a telegraph operator My disease is
something similar to Mrs. Milo Migrants,
though nothing compared to being so bad.
There was a lump raised on my collar
bone, and it was a long time before 1t
looked like opening. The doctor said he
would have to lance II in few days, but
I thought would attend to that myself,
so put little fly blister on 1t and it
opened; then put poultice on and then
salve, and kept the salve on all the time.
1t got so bad and spread upon my left
shoulder, and one place under my left
breast. Then there were two places on
my head, one near the temple and one
back of my ear that was just dreadful.
No tongue can tell what suffered. My
head felt SO strange sometimes, thought
/ was going crazy. Since / have used
the PERUNA Il don't use the salve any
more) my sores healed up right away.
And oh, what relief it is to get around
without chilling and having to suffer with
my sores. / feel like letting everybody
know all about it."
John Ferguson, Gallitzin, Pa, writes:
"Tour PERuNA Is a good medicine, and
we sell lots of it. Will you please send
us some more Ills Of Life with . few

The Political Situation.

The political situation is growing
exceedingly Interesting rs the time
for the iinal struggle approsc hes.
Up to date there are, besides Cleve.
land and Blaine, who represent the
two great established National
parties, five other Presidential can.
didates, and two Of Butler,
representing what he has been
pleased to call the Peoples party,
and ST. John, representing the Pro
hibitionists-are important factors
in the contest because likely to turn
the scale in some Of the doubtful
States in favor Of either one or the
ether Of the two leading candidates.
1t is assumed by many that Buffers
candidacy will work to the injury OF
the Democracy, while ST. John will
draw the principal part of his sup
port from the Republican side. All
expressions on the subject, however,
are founded mainly on mere conjec-
ton and assumption, and no one at
this time can correctly estimate
what relative figures these two can.
didates will cut in the general re-
suit.
All of the main candidates for
President and Vice President and
their friends are active. Mr.. Cleve-
land, who is COMFORTING himself
with that dignity that becomes a
a nominee for the high position of
President has been among the peo.
pie but very little, only making a
trip last week to Brooklyn, but Mr..
Blaine has made tour through
Massachusetts, New York and
Pennsylvania to Ohio and West
Virginia making speeches and a
show Of himself; while Messrs. Hen
bricks and Logan have been engaged
in an active canvass Of several of
the principal Western States, in
Guiding also West Virginia. Butler
has been to New York and Massa-
chusctls and several Western States
while ST. John has been laboring
in Kansas and Indiana and also
Ohio.
Ohio seems to he regarded by all
parties as the real battle ground,
and correctly so, as far as the Re
publicans arc concerned. Next
Tues lay, the 18th inst, a State
election will take place, and if the
Democrats win, the national contest
is practically decided, and Cleve-
land may be considered elected. If
however, the Republicans win, they
may still have fighting chance. But
again, if in addition to losing Ohio
the Democracy should lose Yves,
Virginia, which also holds a State
election on the 14Ih, and where the
battle has waged between the two
parties with great desperation, the
result will presage Democratic
defeat in November, and the contest
will thus be decided before hand in
favor of the Republicans.
Therefore it is that the result OF
next Tuesday is watched with
keenest interest by all parties.
