the Republican Publishing Co. PERSISTS
IN its attacks upon the editor Of this
paper. The parties composing said
c pany seem to think the success of
the political canvas depends upon
breaking down. How foolish and
senseless this attack appears in the
light Of the facts that we are not a
candidate for any Office have not asked
for nor been asked to accept, any office
IN the gift of Jerauld county. the
HERALD has never said word against
the official acts Of any officer in Jerauld

Mrjohnston ism 1T a candidate for reelec
ton, and surely there is no reason for
such q furious onslaught because OF
what we have said against the present
incunbants. 1t appears that they are
afraid Of something: and think that
that something is ensconced within
the sacred precincts Of the HERALD:
and that the HERALD must be crushed
in order to kill this Terrible something
in the embryo. We can assign but
two reasons for their course, one is. to
kill our chances for Office something
we have not sought } the other, to Grip
pie our influence for good. We only
ask that those VINO are not acquainted

A War Upon the Negro.

CHICAGO, July pa special des-
patch from jackson, Miss, says: "a
deplorable state of affairs exists near
Union, Newton county, about seven
ty miles east of here. A band of
young white men, styling themselves
the Regulators, have issued decree
that no negro shall work on the
farms in that vicinity. The band
contains about fifteen members, and
they have killed three negroes and
wounded several others. A perfect
state of terror prevails, and the en-
tire county is greatly excited over
the matter. Every one condemns
the atrocious and bloody actions, and
it is determined that every member
of the band shall be made to answer
for his crimes. Mr.. j. NJ. Kelly was
here yesterday to see the Governor,
and was told to arrest every one of
the young outlaws at all hazards.
About twenty citizens, headed by of
ficers armed with proper warrants,
are now after the young desperadoes
and their speedy capture is looked
for. 1t seems when the attempt was
first started to regulate the negroes
that it was more in fun than anything
else. but the Regulators have now
undertaken in earnest to execute their
designs. Their actions can hardly
be accounted for, and are surprise
to every one"

GENERAL BEAVER lost leg in bat
tie in Virginia If he had disobeyed
orders the losing of leg would not
excuse him from responsibility. Gen
eral Sickles fought well in the Sec
ond days fight at Gettysburg and
lost a leg, but how does that excuse
him of the disobedience of orders.
Ii he had obeyed orders and gone
forward to support Reynolds on the
1st day of the battle as Colonel Ros-
engarten says he was ordered to do,
perhaps he would not have lost his
leg, and he certainly would not be
open to the criticism of having diso-
beyed orders on both the first and
second days of the battle of Gettys-
burg. He did himself injury by 60
ing to Boston last spring and there
in a speech declaring that Reynolds
fight at Gettysburg was an ''an acci-
dent and of no significance" The
Generals judgement is not good OF
he deliberately talked that way to
screen himself. He and his friends
are now abusing Colonel Norris for
defending the command of Reynolds
from the charge of Sickle's Boston
speech. Norris says, and he is cor
roborated by Colonel Rosengarten,
that Sickles had been ordered to be
at Gettysburg, on the morning of
the 1st OF July. Was 1t an accident
that caused him to be ordered by
Reynolds to be at Gettysburg on the
morning of the 1st of July, 1868 J
Was it an accident that caused him
to not appear at Gettysburg for the
battle in which Reynolds lost his
lifa7 Was it an accident that caused
him to declare at Boston last spring
that the Reynolds fight on the 1st OF
July at Gettysburg, was ''an accident
without signifcance'" The Reynolds
men, the first corps men owe it to
themselves and to history to see to
it that they remain not silent under
the unfavorable statement Of q gen
eral who clearly disobeyed orders OF
the second day of the battle and who
in all probability will be shown clear
ly to have disobeyed orders on The
first day of the fight.

To be President of the PennsylvaDia Rail-
road Company Is to be the head of the most
illustrious private enterprise on this eonti-
nent. Even in these days when every pre-
sumption is against large corporations, and
when the mere mention of the name OF one
is often sufficient to arouse babel of bitter

inent among the few corporate exceptions

antsgonism toward, the great aggregations
OF capital. This exemption is not due to
any passive smiabillity either; for we have
no more alert and aggressive institution than
the p. X. r. 1t exists because for long Sc
ries of years justice and humanity have
characterized the Company's management as
well as enterprise and because while stead

Strange as it may seem the vote in
the Senate was almost party vote,
the Republicans voted for the bill
and the Democrats against it. The
vote stood "a yeas, "a nays. While
making mention of the attitude of
the parties in the United States Sem
ate it is just as well to refresh ones
memory with the fact that the late
Republican State convention that
met at Harrisburg, passed a resolu-
ton against the dangerous and un-
Just competition that arises from the
adulterations or counterfeits of the
agricultural products.
