POLITICS IN MOREHOUSE.

The Judgeship in Morehouse par
ish seems to be the all absorbing
topic now. and as the people of I'm
ion or rather the papers of Union are
interesting themselves in the inter-
est of Mr.. Ellis, we near neighbors
over here feel at liberty to work for
Judge Bussey. This was a part of
Morehouse parish when Judge Bus
sey was the popular Clerk of this
District Court.
BY correspondent from Gum
Swamp, in the Sentinel it would seem
that large section there, Moss
back democrats" rs he terms, them
were on the fence as to whether they
would support Bussey, or Ellis.
That if the charges against Mr.. Ellis,
as to prosecuting the whisky men
were proven up they would sup
port Bussey, if not proven up they
would support Ellis. In the same
issue is long card, reluctantly writ
ten by some ladies and gentlemen,
substantiating these charges and
from the way the thing is simering
down it seems to be a contest be-
tween Temperance and liquor men,
with the extreme democrats on the
side of the liquor. The Clarion
seems to be the organ of the latter
and the Sentinel the organ of the
former. How that is we do not pre-
tend to be the judge, but that : the
liquor men oppose Judge Bussey
there seems to be very little doubt.
This is all wrong. An upright Judge
who dares to do his duty in the face
of popularity deserves the respect
and support of good men even
though they be dealers in liquors.
Some good men follow that business
as lawful right and abhor the evil
results from the sale of liquors as
much as any other persons.
This may seem strange assertion
but nevertheless it is a fact beyond
controversy. Such men rs that
cheerfully acquiesce in the decisions
of the people or Courts as law-abid-
ing men. We could name men of
that kind. One man in North Lou
isiana who had large stock of liq-
uors on hand when the people carried
the prohibition question remarked to
us, 81 have lost as much as any
body but I do not propose to violate
the law" Such men as that deserve
the sympathy and confidence of the
people and although purchance, there
occupation may have brought degre.
dation and poverty to the door of
once happy homes, when the people
in their sovereign capacity as free
men and voters, says, No License"
as law abiding men they submit.
This is the proper spirit. Let US not
suffer our zeal to carry US off into

seed among farmers, thus endeavor-
ing to do good to others az we have
had good done to us. Mr.. j. a. May,

anple trees, Mr. SattesthWaite, afl
Aiken, S. c., the Southern agent of
that ne pl,ss ultra of all grapes, the
