Under this significant caption the
Batesville Guard says:
Some wild talk has been 'lndulged
by the republicans and their allies
about what they may do If the state
election should not be fairly con-
Quoted. There has been more fool
ish talk of bayonets, and it has even
been suggested that Mr.. Fizcr might
undertake to set up separate state
government and appeal directly to
the federal government at Washing
ton for recognition. This kind of
talk Is not merely absurd. 1t might
produce harm. There will be per
feet fairness in the electlon-in so
far, at least, as the democrats can
control it. Mr.. Fizer will not be
counted out. Neither will he be
counted in. The sort Of talk to
which we refer is a species of intim.
ldation from which the campaign
should be free; and the polls must be
free from it. The experiment of
setting mp a state government, in
opposition to the regularly constltut.
ed authorities, was undertaken once
before in Arkansas, in 1879, and the
most Of the leaders in that desperate
movement are now Mr.. Fizer's chief
supporters; but the utter and disas.

resulted ought to discourage all
future efforts in that direction.
