Col. Hooker the Nominee.

After a somewhat stubborn con-
test in the Democratic District Con
at jackson yesterday, Col.
C.. r. Hooker received the nomina-
ton for Congress by a vote Of l9 to
ID for Barksdale, the contesting
Hu"ker delegations from both Lin
coin and Claiborne counties having
been previously seated by a strictly
partisan vote.
While there is much TO condemn
in the methods resorted 10 by some
of Col. IIooker's supporters IN va
rious parts of the district, and while
we condemn especially the mannei
in which this county was secured
we do not hold Col. Hooker himsel
at all amenable for these abuses
and, bowling gracefully to the de
cision of the Democratic party, Til
LEADER places his name at its mast
head and will give him true, heart,

Pardoned Before Conviction.

JACKSON, Miss, Aug. 25.-Gov
Lowry to-day pardoned Thos. H.
Johnston, who about two months
ago shot Jos. III. Bolton to death al
Brandon for the alleged seduction OF
his daughter. Johnston was in
dicted by the Grand Jury OF Rankin
county a week ago for murder, and
his trial was set for Tomorrow.
The Governor had the case pre-
sented to him so strongly that it is
supposed he felt justified in the ex,
ercise of the pardoning power,
which vests in him alone, without
restriction in this State, 10 the
extraordinary extent Of using it in
this instance before trial.
JACKSON, Miss, Aug. 26.-The
Governor to-day pardoned Marshall
NJ. Johnston, son Of Thos. H. John
ston, Who was also indicted Tor muir

found that justice could have been

fed, even on the score of public

Prohibition Mass NJ Getting.

We learn that Prohibition Mass
Meeting composed Of the farmers of
Lincoln, Pike, Amite and Franklin
counties, who do their trading al
Summit, will be held at Adams
Camp Ground on the second Satur,
day in September to express their
indignation at the action of certain
merchants Of Summit who are al
legged to have discharged their
clerks for supporting Prohibition in
the late Local Option election in
Pike, and to further protest against
the business men of Summit giving
their influence in favor of the longer
continuance of the liquor traffic IN
that town. This is move in the
right direction, and should be large
ly attended. Nobody is more inter
csted in the closing of the saloons
than the farmers who have to send
their sons, teams and teamsters to
markets where they are likely TO fall
victims to such temptations. AS to
the boycotting Of their clerks, all
such Summit merchants should be
shown that this is a weapon that
cuts both ways, and be handled by
their former patrons as well as them.
selves. The time is past when Pro
hibition must apologize for its ex
istence.
