AN APPEAL 10 THE NATION.
Mississippi Republicans Ask the Priv
ilege of Voting.

New ORLEANS, Oct. ia jackson, Miss,
special says: The republican state execu-
tive committee met here to-day to consider
the withdrawal of General Chalmers from
tho head Of the state ticket. The committee
issued the following: "As republicans of
Mississippi, we are compelled to withdraw
our state ticket. We know our votes would
be stolen and our voters driven from the
polls. But we hoped that in the larger towns
and cities tho semblance Of free
speech might still remain to us, but our
candidates are not safe to discuss or protest.
We desired especially to go before the whole
people Of the state and to challenge demo-
Gratis to u comparison of principles and rec
ords.
"When the armed revolution of 1876
wrested the state from us Mississippi was
the only southern state unburdened with u
state debt. She has democratic one to-day.
Mississippi is governed by minority despot-
ism. and we appeal to our country for re-
dress.
"The constitution that we adopted is the
only one in the south so satisfactory that it
has not been changed. Our laws stand sub
stantlally unchanged and unrepealed, but
we are republicans and this is our offense.
For fourteen years, ever since the infamous
Mississippi plan was adopted, our path has
been marked by the blood of our slain-not
only the well known leaders who bravey
died, but the faithful followers known only
in the cabins of the lowly. We
refer not only to such well
known slaughters as those of Kem-
per and Copiah, Clinton and Carrollton,
w. e. Halleck and Vicksburg and LaE'ora,
but the nameless killing by creek and bayou,
on highway and byway. These are demo-
cratic arguments which to crush we can do
no more. We can't carry our blood stained
republican flag.
"We appeal to the nation. Is national
law and honor but delusion and snarei
When we rely on the guarantees of the
national constitution do we lean on broken
reeda If so, announce the policy and acquit
US Of further effort"

TEN MILLIONS HOMELESS.
The Yellow River, in China, Over
flows Its RnukS.


WASHINGTON, Oct. ia dispatch from
Minister DENLY under date of August 81 re.
ferrng to the ravages Of the Yellow river in
China says the damage caused by tho latest
break in its BANKS is irreparable. Owing to
the deposits of silt, it is estimated that fifty
years must elapse before the lanus inundated
will be useful again for agricultural pur-
poses.
peculiar feature of the trouble is that
deposits IN the bed of the river are so con-
slant in accretion that any system of pre-
veution of these breaks In the banks, caused
by the rise IN the bed of the river, to be
affective would cost a most enormous sum of
money. IL seems likely that a
radical system of prevention of these
breaks will never be adopted aud floods may
be expected each year. Ho Nan, one of the
most prosperous provinces, is ruined, Anhui
has suffered terribly, and now Shantung is
submerged.
The sufferlngs of the 10,OOO000 Of people
the means Of government are inadequate
to provide for.
Foreigners have poured out money liber-
ally in contributions to alleviate the dis
tress.
