PRLKATE JOHN ALIEN.

The Columbus Dispatch, n of the
leading Democratic papers in his
district goes for (P) the Hon. Private
John in the following approved style:
IF Hon. John Allen ever enter
tanned any hopes of a reelection to
Congress from this District he might
as well cast them from him. His
indifference to the interest of his
constituents has alienated many of his
best friends-men who worked faith
fully for him in the last canvass-and
they realize even at this early date
that he must be relegated back to
private life. No Lowndes county man
will be likely to take his place but
almost any county in the District
could furnish a more satisfactory and
able representative than the one who
at present misrepresents us at
Washington"
When We rebuked the gentleman
for voting against a large and i'm
portant interest in his State, the Yazoo
Delta, we did not suppose he had
blundered in other respect so seriously,
as to cause his retirement from Con-
gress. We thought the criticism
necessary to prevent his being con-
trolled again by pure spitefulness,
but we did not intend to
suggest so severe a remedy for one
mistake, as that thought to be neces.
sary by our esteemed cotemporary.
W. simply put the Hon. "Private"
down as a narrow gauge, but hoped
that experience and the advice Of
bIainy men, with whom he would be
thrown in contact, might at least
change him to a standard gauge.

ROOD FRAUDS.

The oleomargarine question was dis.
cussed Monday in the National House
Of Representatives. We are not in
favor Of the oleomargarine bill as in
troduced by the Committee on Agri-
culture, but we do insist that some
law is necessary to protect those, who
prefer pure butter, and only ask the
privilege Of getting it for their money.
Butterine and Oleomargarine are
now made so nearly 70 resemble butter
and to taste like it, that it
is almost impossible fora person, not
an expert, to tell one from the other.
There is no doubt that some brands of
butterine and oleomargarine are made
of wholesome articles and it is equally
true, that others are not. The aim of
the law should beto protect consumers
from the vile compounds and to enable
them to secure butter, when they ask
for it also. If there are those who
want oleomargarine or butterine let
them buy it, but do not let manufac.
turers, hotel keepers, boarding.
house keepers, restauranteurs, or
others serve the public with something
in the name of butter, that is only an
imitation, and often, a very vile COM
pound.
W. trust that Congress will pass a
very well considered law in regard to
all food frauds and authorizations. 1t
certainly has the power to do so, not
withstanding the fears of Messrs.
Reagan and others about States rights.
1t is folly for them to assume that it
is the ercluSioe proUjnce Of the States
to regulate this very important matter
when it is beyond the power of any
State to do it. No State can hamper
free commercial intercourse between
the States, and one State may enact,
ever so strict laws against food frauds,
with only the result of enduring their
importation from other States. Missis-
sippi now has a law imposing a tax on
the sale of oleomargarine and cognate
compounds, but they are imported and
sold in the State as much as ever.
What is wanted in the case of oleo
margarine, is a strong National law,
that will prevent it being sold, or
served as butter in any State. And a
law that will visit the severest penal
ties on all adulterating food of any
kind, is an absolute necessity. 1t is
not only within the power of Congress
to enact such laws, it is the duty of Con-
gress to do it promptly.

An Act for Which Miles is Alone
Responsible.
WASHINGTON, May 26.--Nothing is
known at the war department in regard
to the reported action of Gen. Miles in
offering rewards for the capture of the
renegade Apaches, dead or alive. 1t is
stated that if such is the case, that it
is an act which Gen. Miles is alone
responsible for, and it will not be
sanctioned by the war department.
There are no funds available for such

such a course would not be considered

EK.PRESIDENT ARTHUR.

The tenderest sympathy of the
South is extended to ex-President
Arthur and his family, in this time of
their affection. 1t is now considered
certain that the ex.Presldent is passing
away by a relentless disease. In his
long illness, he deports himself with
patience and the utmost kindness
towards his attendants. 1t is a matter
of Universal remark among men of all
parties h~ereabouts, that his case is one,
which has aroused the deepest feeling.
Opposed politically to the best element
in the South, Mr.. Arthur accomplished
the very difficult feat of gaining the
respect and esteem of all who came in
contact with him, or who closely
watched his course while President of
the United States. A Southern man first
called him the gentleman President"
and right well he deserved the compli-
ment in its fullest significance. If he
felt any sectional feeling, he never
expressed it, and he was the first Re-
publican President who ignored "the
Southern question" altogether. AL.
ways kind, polite, and attentive where
anyone had a right to ask his at
tention, he secured the closest
personal relations with many
of his ablest party opponents.
1t is exceedingly doubtful that be
could have been beaten if he had Sc
cured the nomination of his party, in
stead of Mr.. Blaine. For his forbear-
ance and kindness, this section is
heartily grateful. and keenly regrets
that he is dying. when he should be in
the prime Of manhood.

TIE prospect for first.elass public

about means, no locations selected, and
no definite plans agreed upon. The

ing sites, and there is no time to
spare. There is not enough time if all
preliminaries were settled to erect

Greenyllle Times.
The Evening Post, Of Vieksburg, has
been informed that the Hon. I. O,
Catchings would decline to stand for
denomination, and therefore demurs to
further demand upon him; which, it
thinks, his long continued official ser
vice should exempt him from. The
Posts consideration for It's fellow
townsman is proper. But its informa-
ton as to Mr.. CatchingS does not
accord with his feelings and intention.
We have direct information from him
that he desires and will, in good time,
formally ask for a denomination.
III a subsequent issue the Post says:
"The only demands we have seen
for Mr.. Catchings' re election are those
of the Greenville Times and VICKs.
BURG COMMERCIAL HERALD. Never
theless, many Vicksburg and Warren
county Democrats are talking about
Maj. Magruder, Hon. Marshall Miller
and others, as very suitable men for
Congressional honors."
We are reminded by this that there
is an old personal disgruntlement be-
tween Mr.. Catchings and certain of
the Vicksburg Democrats. Ito which
neither Messrs. Magruder nor Miller,
both u esteemed personal friends,
are parties With that Fight we have
neither carr nor concern. But it must
be fought out on some other arena
than n involving the chief interest,
river Improvement, of the Yazoo
Delta.
This community and this paper did
not favor the nomination two years
since of a candidate from the one hill
county in the Delta District. Our
wishes did not prevail, however, and
Mr.. Catchings was nominated. 1t is
our duty and our pride, to say that
from his election to the present time.
he has bestowed himself to the mastery
of that chief interests with singular
fidelity, has served it with distinguish
ed ability; and out of it has secured
substantial results. Now whatever
scope the coming campaign may pre-
sent to "Vicksburg Democrats" fol-
the expression and indulgence of per-
sonal preference and pique; with the
Delta it is an occasion when all
such considerations must wait
upon the demands of said chief interest
Solely in that behalf and entirely i'm.
personally, do we call for the re.
nomination of Mr.. Catchings. 10 his
quick intelligence, rare tact and strong
character, he now adds Congressional
experience; an invaluable accessory
He has acquired knowledge of and
devotion to that chief interest; which.
worthy of any mans ambition, had he
neglected we would have foresworn
him had he been our brother. BY
arduous and constant labor he has
secured a place on the River and
Hsrbor Committee; without which all
else would have been of no avail. For
the reasons above indicated we call fol-
Mr.. Catchings' denomination. The
issue upon which we base the call is
n vital and deep. 1t will not, in the
YaZoo Delta at least, be narrowed mol
supplanted by a local, If not a mere
personal one.
