saIIsburv,s Gratuitous Insult.

PARIS, Aug. 30.-La Lanterne N an article
inspired by M. Yves Guyot, minister of pub
lie works, refers to Colonel Russell's speech
at the recent Mars la Tour banquet in Ber-
lin and says 'It matters not to us whether
Salisbury makes England Bismarck's vassals
or not but it is intolerable that he should al
low those representing his policy to insult a
friendly nation. France will treat Salisbury e
gratuitous insult with the contempt 1t de-
serves"

The Democratic Primary.

As will be seen 10y the proceedings
of the County Democratic Executive
Committee published elsewhere, the
Committee has called primary cleo
ton TO be held July 9th, for the pur-
pose of nominating candidates for all
county and beat Offices 10 he filed at
the ensuing November election.
We believe the action of the Com
mittcc will meet the endorsement of
every Democrat in the county who
holds party success paramount to his
own personal aspirations. The prime
object of the committee in adopting
this policy was to allay factional diff
frrenccs and disarm the well-knOwn
prejudice known to exist against Con-
vcntion nominees. Nothing could be
fairer than the plan proposed. 1t pro
poses to submit directly to the peo-
pie and let them decide by ballot, who
their nominees shall be, and then to
present Il solid Democratic front to all
Independents and Republicans who
may oppose the party organiza-
ton.
The safeguards thrown around the
primary are also ample and just.
None but whjtc Democrats will be al
lowed To participate-mcn who stood
by the party nominees at the last cleo
ton, and who will stand 10y them this
year. Republicans, independents and
negroes will he allowed no voice, as
they have so often had before, i'll de
Gliding who the Democratic standard
bearers shall be. In other words, we
are to have white Democratic party
in Lincoln county, like unto that of
our sister counties, and officials elect
ed by that party.

4 Substitute for Hog Lard.

We are indebted to the Cotton Seed
Oil Product Co.. 80 Beaver street, NY,
for bucket of the cotton seed lard
for culinary purposes, as substitute
for hogs lord. Our cook has tested it
thoroughly, and pronounces it supe-
rior to best leaf lard, and very supe-
rior to the lard usually purchased in
our markets. Several years ago we
bought and used prepared cotton seed
oil for cooking purposes, and though
it was cheaper and better than most
lard, it had a peculiar odOr when on
the fire that we did not like, and we
abandoned its use. This new discOv
cry contains nothing but cotton seed
oil and pure beef tallow, has none of
that unpleasant odor about it, and
pies, cakes and biscuits in which it
has been used have none of that Odor
about them.
We are not apprised of the COM
parative cost of hogs lard and cotton
seed oil, but we do know that the oil
product is a perfect substitute for the
hog product, and free from its many
We hope our merchants
will order lot of this new product,
that our ladies may test it.

introduced by counsel for defense in
the Kernaghan- Hooker contest was
on the stand Friday, and testified in
substance as follows:
Was an inspector of the election at
Fannin precinct. lie had first an init
nation of an attempt to bride him
through a note from Mr.. II. H. Null
hollan, requesting his immediate
presence at Brandon on business that
could not be put on paper. That
Mr.. Mulhollan and Mr.. H. kerna-
CHAN told him on his arrival in Bran
don that if he, or any man he could
get. would swear that the ballot box
at Fannin was robbed or stuffed, they
would guarantee him, or such person,
ment with salary of 81, 900 or So 800.
That he then conferred with attor-
news for Col. Hooker, and under their
advice, worked so as to try to get
written evidence against the parties.
That % week or two afterwards, being
called to Brandon by note from Mr..
Mulhallan, he met in Mr.. Kena-
ghan's store, Henry kernaghan, Jr.,
and Dick Kerr, who asked about
the man he (Tutt) was to bring who
would swear that the box was robbed.
He (Tutt) told them that for and in
consideration of $1,000 and a $500
position he would bring man. The
party secured was to agree to swear
that the box had been robbed OF not
less than % votes. Mr.. Kerr then
told him (Tutt) he would write to the
Republican Committee at Washington
to find out if they would pay the
amount, and would notify him (Tutt)
when to come to Jackson and arrange
where the money was to be put.
That Mr.. Mulhollan was willing to
put the agreement in writing, but
that Mr.. Kerr refused. That he
(Tutt) all the time kept counsel fol
contestee advised as to the negOtia
tions pending. Mr.. Tut then ex-
hibited two letters from Mr.. MulhOl-
Ian relative to the matter, one of
which he says was put into his hands
by Mr.. Berryhill, who is employed in
the store of Mr.. Mulhollan. Mr..
Mulhollan told him (Tutt) that he
(Mulhollan)was informed by Fannin
man that there was crOokedness.-

1t is authoritatively stated that
Hon. J. NJ. Stone is candidate for
the gubernatorial chair. The senti-
ment Of the people, as expressed
through the newspapers of the State,
seems to favor practical, non-polit-
ical man for this important position,
and now it will be interesting to see
if they prove the sincerity of this ex-
pressed sentiment by supporting Hon.
j. NJ. Stone. While the other aspir-
ants are men worthy of the position,
yet in our Judgment Ex-Governor
Stone comes higher filling the wants

The Ripley Sentinel speaks very
contemptuously of those preachers
who have seen fit to put a word now
and then against the whisky traffic,
and fraud and corruption in govern
mental matters, calling then" notOrie-
ty seeking goody good minister's" and
says, "they should all be transported
to another world; they are entirely too
good for this world of sin and sor-
row. OF course we understand the
Sentinel man. He is like the "demon-
lac of Gaddara," out of whom a le-
gion of devils went INTO the swine.
1t is only that old devilish refrain
which says, What have we to do with
thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth. hast thou
come here to torment us, before the
time?" No, Mr.. Sentinel, they will
remain little longer yet to pray and
work for your salvation, and who
knows but that the Lord will be mer-
ciful to you even, and cast the devils
out?-BdptiSt Record.

The Hammond Leader, edited by
an Iowa man, fires this telling shot:
1t is really amusing to read the
editorials in some of the Iowa Repub-
lean papers describing "the condition
of the Negro in the South" The most
of these editors have never seen Il ne
gro, and if they did see one coming
on the street would pass over on the
other side rather than come in contact
with him. The poor idiots don't
know any more about the condition
of the negro in the South than they
do about the alleged inhabitants of
the moon.

Hon. +. Barksdale, who has lately
announced himself as a candidate for
Governor, was in Brookhaven last
Friday mixing with the people: and
paid the LEADER the honor of a
pleasant call. Major Barksdale has
many warm personal and political
friends in this county who would re-
joice to see him attain the goal OF
his laudable ambition. At the hands
of those who do not favor his candi-
dacy he hopes to receive fair and just
consideration of his claims and this
he should be unreservedly accorded.

Vastly a majority of the prisoners are

scrutiny of their treatment is impos-

however well meaning may be their
intentions in regard to their treat

Pesident Harrison's attitude toward
the South thus far, is of the most as
surfing character. His Southern policy,
as far as revealed, seem to be to ig-
more the negro and old-time carpet
bag, office-sceking element and recOg-
nize only white Republicans of ac-
knowIedged character and standing
men who are Republicans on principle
and not for revenue. Such a course
as this will do more to break the Solid
South than all that former Republican
administrations combined have done.
