prominent democrat, tells mo hat his party

The country nas long needed tariff reform,

Gen. Chalmers, an ex-confederate officer.
is the republican candidate for governor Of
Mississippi. Gen. Chalmers used to be q
democrat, and as such be received the abuse
of the republican organs of the north, The

him that be was thief and despoilsr of

Perh Fps this is because there are so many
other disrepu able political IS in the Repub
