and that his very vote h absolutely neces-
sary 10 elect our candidate. With such a
epirit enkindled Paul EpMrxps will be re-
turned to Congress BY an overwhelming
majority.
And let Ms here emphasize again the i'm
portance Of the issue at stake in tho coming
election. Our rights as free American
citizens have been seriously threatened by
the force bill now pending In tho Senate.
II that bill becomes law there is no
telling what injury it Will work to our
southern land, or il once fastened upon
us how can we wrest from the
Republican majority the unlimited and
despotic power it would confer upon them.
Their ruinous rule would be perpctuated.
Elections at the South would be mere
form and q farce. The Republican ma
chinery established by law CD for the pur-
pose Of despoiling the South and robbing
her of the votes cast by intelligent and
properly qualified citizens would do its
work mot wisely but too WE'LL" and thus
practically rob US Of representation in
Congress. II ever there was an attempt TO
fois. an indignity upon apeople 1t is the
latest effort of the rapacious and merciless
radical majority TO enslave the white peo-
pie of the South TO an ignorant negro
supremacy. This odious measure has been
temporarily laid aside. but with the avowed
purpose of taking it up in December. The
action of the Senate will be determined
by the voice of the people at the
polls. II their outcry against the In
dignity is pronounced; if this country
shall send an overwhelming Democratic
majority TO the next House Of Representa-
tives, that august body the Senate, which
is always more or less thoughtful even on
purely partisan measures, will recognize
that the ambition of Republican party
leaders has led them too far, and the OBJ
noxious measure will be dismissed. So the
issue is drawn. II is in the hands OF our
people to decide what the result shall be-
negro supremacy or honest. intelligent
government.
But to return to the Sixth district The
work Of its convention was well done, and
we shall be greatly disappointed if the
Hon. PAUL C. EDMUSDs is not returned to
bis seat in Congress by handsomely-in-
creased majority.

Alexander McIver, Of Chatham, was nomI-

incompetent men and that there must be a
change. McIyer accepted the nomination.
BUM WILL BE ELECTED.
J. C. l.. Harris. chairman of the conven-

have run as an Independent, since only in
that way could he get the votes of any

satisfied with Bum. the Democratic nomi-
nee, but such men will not vote for a Re
