DEMOCRATS AWAITING A PRETExT.

This was disheartening state of affairs to
the Jackson Democrats who wanted to re-
deem the capitol city of Democratic State
from Republican rule But as usual it was
the unexpected that happened. Christmas
eve two white men had been killed in street
fight and in the excitement that followed the
Democrats had seen their opportunity and
had organized the white league, nominated
candidates for mayor and aldermen and
established such reign of terror that the
colored voters held meeting and adopted
resolutions that the colored people would re-
frain from voting and withdrew the colored
candidates for aldermen. Mr.. Wilson read
from the testimony as to the threats made
against colored voters and as to their exclu-
sion from the polls in carrying out the deter
mination to make it "white mans cleo

THE PREsIDENTs's 100000 GIFT.


Colonel Lamont Defends the Donor
tfce.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 27.-The reported ten
thousand dollar campaign contribution from
the President was the theme OF discussion
uptown and down town to-day. When ask
ed by reporter about the story Colonel La
mont said: "I do not see anything very
startling about that story. It is well known
that the President has always openly and
above board been in the habit Of making
contributions as his means justified toward
defraying the necessary legitimate expenses
of his party's campaign whether he has been
candidate for Office ar not, and this year is
not likely to be an exception. The expenses
for documents, meetings, etc., in a national
campaign covering the whole country run
up into the hundred thousands. Somebody
must pay, and none could be expected to
more cheerfully than those supposed
to have q personal interest in their
party's success. The President will, as here
tofore, assist the Democratic party in this
manner as far as he thinks fair and proper,
just as suppose General Harrison and Gen
eral Fisk will aid the Republican and Prohi-
bition parties. do not knew what sum he
will give and do now understand that it is
any of my business. but am sure that the
sum you mention is not unusually large"
To the further question of whether or not
the story published was true, the colonel re-
fused to reply, saying: "That is all have to
say on the subject. Is that the that the state
ment published to the effect that such large
sums have not been given before is all nom
sense"
