the best democratic white citizens of
Wilcox county held mass meeting and
passed resolutions that such action was
not sanctioned by the executive committee
or the white people of the county. Mo-
Duffy asked if they would guarantee him
against injury from the three men. Being
told they would not, he promptly left.
The affair has elated the very small re-
publican element of the state beyond ex-
preston. They claim it will give McDuffy
the election.

Both the Rep, and tho MaaAlllon IN

editorial comment We assume thhI
they we're fooled with the authentic
statements OF tho authentlye Adl
Cien'l, of Ohio, and did not know that
il was bogus. We make q distinction
between bogus and false, II 10 true
that Foraker was ia tho army and pres
ent with his company during the prog
resa OF the various battles mentioned
nv Adj. 0enl AXline, His patriotism
and bravery are not called 10 question
No doubt he would have fought brave
ly had he been permitted 10 confront
tho enemy, face TO face No doubt no
would haye marched with buoyant step
and pnblanched cheek into the very
face Of black mouthed cannon, haa no
been ordered, Hut this he was not
asked to do, aa he Whh
not with his company ~
Chleamauga, where his company and
regiment lost 90 heavily, Doubtless
his fiery ani imp6tuoua nature would
have out him ia front OF the color ser
qeant at Keneaaw, had no been ordered
into that fierce Onslaught, But he
was not ordered, Foraker would
doubtless have distinguished himself ~
Bentonylle, n, O., whom the whole reb

would certainly have been NJ the fore
front, whore tho iron hail swept The
ground like q cyclone, had he been with
his command at savannah on Dec, 2isl,
1894, but he was not then with his com
pany aud regiment
Let ua DO Understood, Foraker has
a good record ~ soldier lle
went into the army asa mere boy, ana
te ataid until the end, lle did good,
faithful service IN q quiet and orderly
way, but when you commence 10 talk
about battle record, Foraker has none
worth mentioning The record Showo
that no was never IN 0ght In which a
man In his company was ever KILLED, or
severely injured,
Now, war kills,
War means death and destruction.
Some one Is always killed IN u battle,
No battles were eyerfought on either
continent without death or manning
Aa Foraker was never present where
anyone was killed we will omit the hero
from his list Of titles aud endearmenla'
It's due to the present generation TO
know that Foraker did not put down
the Rebellion, As one would be led 70
suppose from reading editorials In GER
tain Ohio Republican newspapers
There are plenty Of old soldiers, poor
and neglected, and In the aims houses
of Ohio with better lighting records
than Gov. Foraker,
We have known this for long time,
but should not have printed " were
