The Coming Enrnnairn.

Now and then we hear the picket
firing over the State which announces
the beginning of the impending battle.
The old politicians are laying their
plans and brushing the dust from
their old tariff and ti-Yankee
speeches. Pipes are being deligent-
" laid into the Alliance camp and
great hearted statesmen (D in one
mighty embrace press to their bosOms
the saloonist and prohibitionist.
II we are not mistaken some men
are fooling themselves while they are
trying to fool the people.
The tariff will cat no figure in the
coming campaign. The next State
government will have nothing to do
with settling the tariff question. And
the old war issues will not come to
the front either. Turning the rascals
ont thousand miles away, may be
all right, but Mississippians are far
more concerned about turning the
rascals out who have plundered our
State of her money and her public
lands.
The coming campaign will go upon
home bred, living issues of honesty
and good government in Mississippi,
and the people are not going to be
fooled. Men who waut State Office
must say distinctly how they stand
on the misdoings and disorders at
jackson. They must say whether they
are for or against the infamous peni-
Tertiary leasing system. They must
say whether they approve or disap-
prove of the pardoning power. They
must take stand on the question of
the saloon as social and political
factor in our State. And they must
stand up and be counted on one side
or the other of the Constitutional Con-
vention question.
These are the living questions, and
men who don't know about these
things do not know enough to hold
State office. Trimmers and Billy
Bothsides candidates had just as well
pitch a crop and work it, for they
will have no employment at Jackson.
And men who are tarred with the ring
brush had better go quietly into the
dsinfecting business at home, for the
people are going to take the white
wash off down to the grain, that they
may know what manner of men the
would-be public servant is.

4 KrnYe and Noble Sentiment.

n Brave ana NOBtc ScutttutNNs
The New Mississippian and Clarion
Ledger have just been engaged in a
discussion of the Governors abuse of
the pardoning power-precipitated by
the Governors pardon of the Jackson
druggists-the n. VI. condemning and
the G. L. defending His Excellency.
From the closing part of New Missis-
sippian's last article, which places it
many lengths ahead, we take the fol-
lowing:
In vesting the Governor with the
right to pardon, il was intended that
it should be exercised rarely and with
great care and discretion; only when
subsequent developments established
the injustice of conviction; when
public exigency demanded it, or when
the prOmptings of humanity or jus
tice dictated, and no interest of sOcie-
ty or good government could he
affected by it. 1t was never intended
that the Executive Office should
be the States supreme judicial
in judgment upon all other courts,
and at autocratic pleasure, declaring
their session, farce, and the laws,
which they attempted to enforce, a
nullity. Neither was it contemplated
that the Governor would prostitute
his office to the duties of penitentiary
turnkey, clothed with plenary power
to release the inmates as fast as they
might enter.
The cry of personal journalism
has long since become a shield, which
the CT. and few followers quickly
raise to ward off the public gaze, when
honest hands off tear the mask of evil
doors. Public officials, and men i'll
their relations to law and society, are
legitimate subjects of discussion, and
their exposure, when the interests OF
good government are affected OF
threatened, is not only privileged to,
hut demanded of every journalist.
He who neglects it is recreant to duty
he, who dares not, let's moral cow
ardice make him deserter, if not a
traitor, to his State.
If to refuse to fawn at the feet OF
lONC anu CNCl dboh
"the king can do no wrong" if to
spurn to sit idly upon the fence, when
intemperance threatens to destroy the
morals of our country; if to re-
fuse to keep silent when the interests
of the State are threatened, and her
laws are trampled under foot by their
sworn executors; if to expose corrup-
ton wherever and whenever found;
if to scorn to cover up crime because
the criminals pass for gentlemen, be
personal journalism" then in the
future, as in the past, we shall con-
tinue to be guilty, no matter how
much it may shock the sensibilities OF
the C-L.; or do violence to the course
which its editor has SO uniformly pur-
sued, and so persistently besought his
brethren of the press TO emulate.

Senator George After the Trusts

A Picayune special says Senator
George ofMississippi has taken very
determined stand in the matter of
trusts, and proposed to the antitrust
bill pending in the Senate several
very stringent amendments.
The first provides that any suit to
enforce right based upon a contract
in respect of any article of merchan-
disc, the price of which has been
affected by a combination or trust,
shall be thrown out of Court for want
of jurisdiction with double cost to the
defendant.
Another authorizes and directs the
President to suspend the collection of
duty upon any article the price of
which is affected by a trust or com
bination and he may not remove such
suspension in ninety days after he is
satisfied that such trust or combina-
ton no longer exists or the price of
the said article is no longer enhanced
thereby, and he given full authority
to renew from time to time his pro =
clamation of suspension.
The third amendment makes any
articles of merchandise, the price of
which is So affected, unlawful subjects
of interstate or foreign commerce and
to prevent such articles from being
transported, the President and the
interstate commerce commission are
instructed to use all their powers.

ApOlOgetical.

During our absence last week an
item crept into the local columns
which has stirred up considerable
feeling. 1t was in relation to the
death of Judge Handy, and the writer
of it, supposing truth was demanded,
said the deceased was an old loafer,
hummer, druknard and deadbeat,
aud that he was found dead by jug
of whisky. The friends of the de-
ceased are justly indignant at this
expose, although they do not dispute
the charges. We are very sorry that
anything of the kind should happen,
and are now preparing an article for
next week, in which the Judge is COM
plimented on his sObriety and love of
cold water-praised for honesty and
integrity-complimented for his pub
lie charities, and is referred to as one
of the most upright men west of
Chicago. While all know better, and
while the whole thing will be a false
hood, we shall be smoothing it over
with his friends. Extra copies, done
up for mailing, only five cents EACH

Swift Justice.

Swift justice is an anomaly in this
country, yet it sometimes gets here.
Mai. Pat Hamilton was murdered in
Aberdeen on the night of Jan. l, 1889.
1t is now Feb. l, 1SS9just one month,
yet the murderers have been arrested
and regularly indicted, arraigned,
tried, convicted and sentenced to pay
the penalty of their crime. We have
no word of centure or complaint for
the speed of the car of justice and on
ly this to offer: If our laws were so
framed as to compel such expedition
in the administration of justice in all
cases, there would be far less Oppor-
tunity to manufacture testimony,
hunt up belated witnesses, pack jul
ries or bride court officials. In our
opinion fewer innocents would suffer
and far more of the guilty would be
punished.-Bdptist Record.

Wise Counsel.

Hon. J. j. Spellman, LII. d., one of
the leading colored men of the State,
spoke at the Court House last Friday
night, by invitation of the colored
Odd Fellows of this place. In dis
cussing the race question, he declared
that one of the greatest barriers to
the advancement of the negro, was
the demon of alcoholic drink. 1t ex-
ercises Il strong and determined in
huence in political struggles, and is
too frequently the cause of church
troubles. He urged his race to teach
by example, in their houses, at their
daily avocations, in their social en-
vironment, the lesson of temperance,
and avoid the evils that surround the
perniciOus traffic. Let us shun its
Overtures, be firm in our efforts to
have pure homes, sustain high NOR
al standard, encOurge christian cult
ure, and promote industrial progress.
He maintained that the successful al
titude that the representative men of
the race had secured in their several
prominent stations, was the result of
their prompt and intelligen discharge
of the duties required, and their So
Der habits. No man has ever succeed
ed in Il representative capacity whose
love of the saloon and its enticements
was paramount to his other Obliga-
tions. He advised the giving of espe-
cial attention to any enterprise having
for its object the advancement of the
interest both moral and intellectual
of the community in which they live.

WHY is il some of our business men W

Why is it some of our business men will
persist in sending their job printing to
New Orleans, Atlanta, st. Louis and
other distant cities, when they can get the
work done just as well and just as cheap
at homer Suppose the printers and their
families, who purchase everything they
eat and wear right here in Brookhaven,
should follow their example in this re-
spect and send off for all their groceries
and dry goods,-how would this work
We hope those the cap fits will think
about this, and before they again send off
tola distant printing concern, at least
give the home Offices chance to quote
prices and show samples of their work.

Lawlessness in jackson.

kdNEtSeNcNS III odCtNSSEs
The recent report of the Grand
Jury of the jackson District of Kinds
county unfolds another chapter in the
history of lawlessness in the Capital.
The criminals have combined, it
seems, to terrorize the community in
to silence while they carry on their
unlawful doipgs. This is challenge
to the manhood of Kinds county to
put things right in our Capital City
by breaking up this conspiracy
against law and against the lives aud
property of law abiding citizens. 1t
must bc done at all hazards, and the
quicker the better and safer too.
The question naturally arises how
can it he doneP Only in the way sug-
gestcd by Burke's aphorism when
the wicked conspire, the good must
combine" The good people of Kinds
must see to it, that witnesses can tes-
tify in their courts without fear Of
loss of life or property. This they
must do by crushing the power of the
allied evil forces of jackson. At the
coming election only men of nerve
and high character should be trusted
with any office.
To begin the good work, no man
ought to be elected Supervisor whose
sympathies are with the lawless class
es. This is of the utmost importance.
The Jackson district needs head,
bat not the Head that now represents
it on the Board of Supervisors.
After the Supervisors, the Sheriff
must be the right man in the right
place, and terror to evil doors. If our
information is correct, the good people
of Kinds have serious cause of COM
plant against Sheriff Thomas. We
are informed that during the recent
troubles in jackson one of the most
noted desperadoes in the whole land
openly walked the streets day after
day for weeks menacing good citizens
while warrants were laying in Sheriff
Thomas Office against him. We are
further informed that three warrants
now lie in his Office against Pat Lowry
for forgery, and that with knowledge
of the whereabouts of the criminal he
does not bring him to the bar of his
country for trial. Two prominent
Lincoln county men were indicted in
Kinds county for gambling months
ago, and although one of them makes
repeated visits to jackson he had not
been arrested when we last heard
from the cases not long since. Not
long ago prominent man who had
been committed to Jail by a Justice
without the benefit of bail on a
charge of murder was allowed to
board at one of the best hotels in the
city, and attend the State Fair, horse
races and public lectures without so
much as guard, awhile two poorer
and less influential men charged with
identically the same offence, anguish
ed in the Raymond Jail and took the
prison fare.
The Sheriff Thomas may be kind
gentleman, but Kinds county can not
break down lawlesSness without a
sheriff to execute the law OH all Grim
inals alike, whether they be white or
black, friendless tramp, a peniten-
tiary lessee, or even the Governors
son.
Men of Kinds, look to the men who
fill your offices, and see that each one
has backbone and official integrity.

shiIoh's Consumption Cure.

This is beyond question the most sue
cessful Cough Medicine we have ever sold,
cases of Cough, Group and Bronchitis,
while its wonderful success in the cure of
Consumption is without a parallel in the
history of medicine. Since its first dis
covery it has been sold on a guarantee, a
test which no other medicine can stand.
If you have a Cough we earnestly ask
you to try it. Price 10 cents, so cents
and $1.00. If your lungs are sore, Chest
or Back lame, use Shiloh's Porous
Plaster. For sale at the City Drug
Store. O

The white anties of jackson felt
called upon last Saturday night to
hold a meeting and assert their re-
spectability. Judge Calhoun prcsid-
ell. After a good deal of gush, he
said that among other things, it had
been declared by the ProhibitiOnists,
that if the county went wet, it meant
the restoration of Republican and ne
gro supremacy, and that if he thought
that were really the issue, anti as he
was, he would prefer to see the coun-
ty stay dry. This so riled Major
Gibbs, that that loud mouthed and
odorous Republican anti said that he
vas then ami there done with the anti
side and world vote the dry ticket.
Prohibition has received many bard
thrusts, but the accession of the
doughty Major TO its ranks was 1.-THE
mott unkindest cut of ALL and ac-
counts for Tuesdays defeat without
further explanation.

Capt. w. H. Hardy, the renowned
railroad official, who was unable to
feed, elothe and guard convict labor
given to him to enable him to con-
struct the Gulf g. Ship Island Rail-
road, has been elected President of q
new company known as the Meridian
and Tuscahoma Railroad. The ROAD
ON THE MAP, runs from Meridian to
the Tombeckbee river, and is to be "a
narrow gauge" Has the G. g. S. l.

Kinds Goes Wet,

The local option election came on
in Kinds last Tuesday, one week
from the day it was ordered, and the
county reversed the decision of two
years ago, and went wet by a majority
of from 800 to 500. This will carry
saloons back to the Empire county
again, to it's great curse, but the num-
Der of saloons is likely to be much
fewer than under the old regime.
The last Legislature passed a law
putting the license in jackson at
$500 for general saloons and $500 for
malt liquors. This does not apply to
other places, where the license can
range from 5000 to $1,000. 1t is
thought the high license will limit
the number of saloons in jackson to
three or four, and that there will be
a limited number at other places.
The Brookhaven leader., 1889-02-14

Harrison county invested $1,000 in
the bonds of the G. & S. l. r. r. to
aid in its construction through that
county, and instead of reaping the
benefits of a railroad will reap $780,
900 in abstract experience. The r. r.
has only partially been built, the work
has stopped and the $780, 900 in bonds
have been issued drawing interest in
twenty yearly payments, which will
reach in the aggregate $4,000, that
it has cost that county to learn not to
monkey with rotten corporations that
are so full of patriotism that they are
just dying to build railroads with
other peoples money.--Neae MIS-
sissippidn.
