The Memphis appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1886-1890, 1886-10-15

TIE resolutions OF the Democra OF
Colcordis, Miss, which we publish in
another column, are pervaded by
fraternal spirit so far as the negro is
concerned. The people recognize his
place in the body polite, and are
willing that he shall hold such Offices
as he has education and capacity
for. This is just. The negro ought to
be lead, not driven, and it is for the
Democrats everywhere in the South to
teach him the way that he should g.
The Republicans have failed to do that.
They 50 arranged their meetings and
conventions as that the "poor black
man" was forced to vote en- mssse for
their nominees, and the perpstuition
OF vicious Office holders, whose only
purpose was the securing Of the
"boodle." The white people OF the
whole Yazoo bottom suffered from the
presence of these political scabs, and
it was essential to their safety and
growth that such creatures should bs
driven out of office. This done, the
Democrats OF Bolivar county recognize
it their duty to take the negro by the
hand, not in an Extensively patronizing,
but in a manly way, and educate
him 10 understand that they do not
want to force him to their way or
hinder him from the free expression
OF his opinion. This We believe to be
the real and hearty desire OF the Dem-
ocrats of Bolivar county. And they
are right. No country can be built up
by repression or oppression. To be
prosperous every man in a communi-
ty must be free and feel that he is
free with none to make him afraid.

O'Clock rsged in full force. The Odd
Fellows Temple, Centiver's brewery,

the principal business buildings, were

The gale this afternoon unroofsd

Mr.. PowDERLY has taken hold OF
the race question in labor, as to him
new thing, and has given directions
for the organization in each of the
Southern States of bureaus for the ac-
cumulation OF statistics as to negro
labor, and a'so for the establishment
OF assemblies. To this there can be
no objection. But Mr., Powderly
will find, on close examination,
more than half this work done.
Here in Memphis the colored ard
white workingmen have long betn
thoroughly identified one with the
other, and on mora than one occasion
have made common cause without in
the least touching on the social line.
The mechanics of the South have al
ways worked willingly side by side
with their negro fellows without
detriment or danger, whereas the
Northern mechanic has steadily re-
fused to acknowledge him. Mr.. Pow
derly ought to have known that fact
before he issued his instructions, and
to be consistent he should have sp-
pealed to the existing Southern assem-
blies 10 do the work he has thus cut

TEE news OF the storm which pre-.
vailed for three days, beginning with
Monday, along the G llt of Mexico with
special violence from the mouth OF
the Sabine river to the mouth of the
Rio Grsnde, grows worse and worse
with each succeeding dispatch. The
town of Beaumont, at the mouth Of
the Sabine Pass, has been almost swept
away and more than fifty persons have
lost their lives. la other PLACES, too,
thu destruction of life and property
hav, been very great, and the wind
travelling a. the rate OF from thirty live
to fifty.ssven miles an hour in a north
easterly direction made havoc on its
way. In Chicago it was especially
violent, and the ships at sea in Lake
Michigan are reasonably supposed to
have suffered disast;ously. Accounts
from Indiana are also of disaster by
the cyclone, and no doubt We shall
hear from OH o and perhaps SIS far as
New York of destruction Of life and
property by this awful storm OF iaiu
and wind.

The action of the Equitable Gas
light Company in securing an iDjunc-
tion from Chancellor Somels, of the
Eleventh District, to restrain the Tax
ing District government from inter
fering with their occupancy of the
streets is very well calculated to array
the people of Memphis against that
corporation. Whether or not it is so
it will be thought that there must be
something in the case that could not
bear ths light Of Chancellor Ellettd
Court that induced 80 unusual pro-
cedurs. What is it? The old CON-
pspy had injured itself with the pub.
lie and had forfeited its status with
the Taxing District government by
revoking its contract with it, and
the Equitable thus had the field to IT.

terms to the city and it would, in all

tiction. Itis now President Hadden's
turn to make move on the checker

dicating that the fire is raging with in
creased fury, and it is feared that the

Over tixIY LIVES Lost.

GALVESTON, Ten, October IA This
city has been in state of feverish
excitement all day over the dreadful
news from Sabine Pass. Many anx-
ious persons have eagerly vifited the
Telegraph Offices, seeking further pir,
ticulars from the stricken town. Toe
details of the calamity are very diff
cult to obtain, because OF the i'm
paired facilities for Communication Ia
the vicinity of Sabine Pass. Tele-
graphic commur icatiou with Beau
mont and Orange, the nearest points to
the unfortunate town, has been rees-
tablished, but the inhabitants of these
places appelr to be waiting the return
of relief pattifs that have gone to Sa-
bine Pass. The village OF Sabine Pass
is located at the mouth of Sabine
river, within half a mile OF the ex-
treme point jutting from the Texas
side. The town lies only four feat
above the mean tide mark snd is
bounded by great swamp on the
west and Lake Sabine on the north.
The entrance 10 Lake Sabine is mile
and half above the town. TIE
lake is fifteen miles long by
ten in Width, with an average
depth of seven feet, which ia always
maintained by the huge volume of
water pouring into the basin from the
two ravigable rivers, Neches and
Sabine. L. was this lake, according
to the most exp rienced navigators on
this coast, that destroyed the town.
The hurricane OF last Suuday in the
West Indies blew the waeTs with
great violence toward the Texas
coast. This hurricane wave was
first noticed on this coatt on
Sunday morning, attaining iIs maxi.
mum on Tuesday afternoon, and was
maint lined at high point by the i'm
psius ( the water behind. The hur-
ricape itself did not reach these coasts
at all, as scarcely breath of wind was
siirring when the tidal wave
fret touched the COST. When its
maximum was reached on Tuesday
afternoon, however, fierce north
western gaze sprung mp along the
whole coast, and at Sabine this
gale blew the waters cut OF
Lake Sabine and drove them
toward the Gulf, whers the lpke wa
tiers were met by the grF at well caused
by the hurricane. T1is resulted in
drivil the lake waters over into the
little town and submerging the coun
try for miles srouDd without a mo-
ment's notige. This account of the
disaster is Confirmed by our expert
ence hers with the eame gale, and al
information from Sabine also confirms
the above theory. AS soon as
the G Hector Of Gust oms was apprissd
of the disaster, he ordered the govern
ment tug Penrose to prepare to make
trip to Sabine, and she started for
that place al O'Clock this atierno On
with a rep es 9ntative Of the Galveston
NelUs aud several others on beard.
The distance to Sabine is sixty miles.
The Penlose cannot get back before
tomorrow, when the details of this
awful disaster will be known. Private
kilograms from Beaumont this evening
confirm The reports previously sent
regarding the loss of life. The dam.
sgs to property all along the Texas
coast will be great. At Beaumont and
Orange the gaze did serious damage.
1t played havoc among the lumber
mills, but occasioned no loss of life.
The latest repo Is place the number of
lives lost at Sabine at over sixty.
