The Brookhaven leader., 1891-10-29

A few short months ago certain gem
tlemen in this county were very much
exercised for fear the Democratic par
ty was going to be disrupted and de-
feated, simply because Alliance Dem
ocrats wanted men elected to the Leg
islature and L. S. Senate who were in
accord with their platform and princi-
pies. Now that the success of the
Democratic county ticket is actually
threatened by the opposition of sever
al notorious Republicans and indie
pendents, and special effort is being
made to defeat the party nominee for
Representative, the mastery inactivi-
ty of these same gentlemen reminds
one of what the little boy said when
asked if his father were Christian.
ooh, yes" said he, "but he is not
working at it much now" 1t looks
after all, like they were much more
concerned about defeating the aims of
the Alliance than in preserving the
success and unity of the Democracy.

See Differently.

! 1t is credtablc more to the good sense
of the people CT Mississippi than to par
tisanship that the campaign in this State
has passed off and conclusions have been
arrived at with so little acrimOny and
without any notable Observation-Disclosures
ez Democrat.
With no disposition to be captious
OF fault finding, the Clarion Ledger
must say that it cannot endorse the
expressions in the above that the
Campaign is over" and Conclusions
have been reached with little acri-
mony." The campaign is net over.
And the canvass has been one of the
meanest ever conducted in the State.
Barksdale has been more savagely as
sailed than was Ames. He has been
ridicuied, misrepresented and SLAM
dered from one side OF the State to
the other. His Democracy has been
questioned and honor impugned.
Nothing has been too mean for some
of the George people and papers to
say about him, or those who advOcat-
ed his election. The fight against
Barksdale has been, in many respects,
infamous, and those who have waged
it ought to be heartily ashamed of
themselves.
On the other hand, some very salty
things have been said of Senator
George, but nothing not justified by
the facts. More might have been
said within the range of legitimate
criticism.-ClariOR- Ledger.

1t is n great pity for the country
that sam Jones, with his wonderfully
persuasive eloquence and powers OF
appeal and control over large bodies
of men, cannot find it in his heart to
serve the Lord by working a while in
the political part of His vineyard.
Quit yonr meanness" is as applicable
in the field of politics as it is in any
other quarter of the world Of sin !;
and there is, it seems to us. just now
far greater need for the Decalogue in
Mississippi politics than there is for it
in American social life.-Merididn
Standard.
Agreed. But suppose Sam should
go in for political Prohibition with a
party behind it and tell the naked
truth about the liquor traffic with all
of its political and other Internal af-
filiations, wouldn't he be denounced
as n clerical intermeddler from one
end of the country to the other, who
ought t. be driven back into the pull
pit ?

.IoI,uny Got There.

1t is supposed the class in Natural
History was reciting.
"Johuny," asked the teacher testify,
"what sort of u bug is humbug !"
Johnny hesitatcd and thought OF
June bugs, aud lightning bugs, and
betsy bugs, and-all sorts of bugs,
and then all at once sudden thought
struck him and he answered;
II don't know, sir, exactly, but |
heard pa say that DIR. Watts is the
biggest political humbug In Lincoln
county"
The teacher, who is good Demo
crat and Alliance man, thought it was
too good an answer to count as miss,
and johnny still stands at the head OF
his class.

Vote for the Nominees.

The total white registered vote III
this county is 1868. The number OF
persons voting in the primary August
11th. and thereby pledging themselves
to support the ticket nominated, was
991. leaving only 81 white registered
voters unplcdged. There are in the
county 673 cOlored registered voters.
1t therefore follows that the few indie
pendent candidates who are running
against the regular nominees either
expect to mass the solid negro vote
and combine it with the small portion
of whites who did not participate in
the primary, or else they are prcsump-
tuous enough to believe a large por-
ton of the 991 voters who took part
in the primary are going to violate
the obligation thus assumed and go
back on the party nominees.
in either case, we cannot but be-
lieve their calculations will miscarry.
We cannot credit the suggestion that
any appreciable number of the 99l
white men who participated Ill the
primary, are so lacking in political
honor and integrity as to support the
opponents of the candidates then nom
mated, it matters not who may have
been their personal preferences. And
on the other hand, it is reasonable to
assume that II large per centage OF the
white voters who did not participate
in the primary. as well as a consider
able portion of the colorcd voters,
will support the Democratic nom-
nees, knowing them to be the choice
of a majority of those who participant
ed in the primary and worthy of the
confidence reposed in them.
The LEADER learns with regret that
there is feeling of dissatisfaction
and disappointment on the part OF
some good Democrats and Alliance
men toward Mr.. Hart, the nominee
for Representative, because he has
not seen fit to explain his choice fol
L. $. Senator as unequivocally as de-
sired, but this should not, and we hope
will not, deter any one who took par;
in the primary from supporting him
In the first place, they owe that much
to him and themselves, because he is
the party nominee; and secondly, it Is
not fair to assume, with the evidence
at hand, that he is going to act i'll bad
faith toward his supporters, on the
Senatorial or any other question.
The LEADERS advice to all good Dem
ocrats and Alliance men is to give
him their hearty support. If he
should betray the confidence thus re-
posed, which we do not believe he will
do, there will be a day of reckoning
hereafter, but, as we have said, it is
wrong and unjust to assume in adj
vance, merely Oh rumor and suspicion,
that he will do so.
In short, the LEADER hopes to see
every one who participated i'll the
primary support the Democratic tick
ct from top to bottom, and that will
insure its triumphant election.
The Brookhaven leader., 1891-10-29

1t is needless to speak to the people
of Lincoln county of Judge Cassedy's
pre- eminent qualifications for the Of
flee of legislator. 1t is his services to
the Democratic party of the county
and his loyalty to the cause of the AL
lance when others were lukewarm or
in open antagonism, that should spec
tally commend his candidacy to all
true Democrats and Alliance men at
this time. To his splendid leadership
and unfaltering devotion two years
ago was due the first signal Democrat
ic victory that had been won in the
county in years, and now, as then, the
principles of the Alliance and genu-
inc Democracy have had in him il
steadfast and faithful champion.

ical to the interests of the people; it
is the reasscmbling of the people

Vote for the nominees and don't
forget it.
Campbell is making it interesting
for Mckinley in Ohio.
In politics people are apt to believe
as they want to believe.
Look out in next weeks LEADER
for that popular announcements.
Copiah and Lawrence counties are
without independent candidates.
Go to the polls next Tuesday and
vote for the Democratic nominees.
The Copiah Alliance brethren are
showing their appreciation of the
LEADER in a substantial way.
If you are a good Democrat, or are
affiliating with the Democratic party,
vote the ticket in this column.
Next Tuesday the Democrats stand
a good chance of carrying New York,
Massachusetts, Ohio and Iowa.
The New York Voice is giving the
two old whiskey parties a world of
trouble in some of the Northern
States.
AS a general thing boiling from the
support of party candidates who have
been fairly nominated is bad bust
ness.
BE certain to turn out at the cleo
ton next Tuesday and see how you
like the workings of the new election
law.
Old Uncle Benjamin Franklin Camp
bell and MI. Ike Cope won't know
they were in the race for county
Treasurer.
The Prohibition party men are
making a gallant fight for their tickets
in New York, Massachusetts, Penn
sylvania and Ohio.
A vote for Cassidy is vote against
Republicans, Independents and enc
mics of Democracy and the Alliance
who are fighting him.
Young Hill, who came so near kill
ing Hon. Frank Burkitt, accidentally
shot one of his own hands off a few
days ago with shot gun.
AS usual, the Republican party in
New York, Massachusetts, Ohio and
Iowa, is playing the hypocrite-blow-
ing hot and cold-on the liquor ques-
ton.
As fully half of the negroes that are
registered will be unable to vote un-
dor the Australian ballot law, the in.
dependent candidates stand very
slim chance.
That report Oh Temperance and
Prohibition adopted by the Mississip-
pi Baptist State Convention and re-
adopted by the Fair River Associa-
tiOBy has the right ring about it. Read
it and you will And some thing good

The man who could attend the
county Alliance meetings all over this
State and see the large number of rep
resentative, substantial farmers who
compose them, look into their earnest,
resOlute faces and hear their intelli-
gent discussions of political and fl
nancial questions, and then say the
b-Treasury is dead issue and the
Alliance done for as a political factor,
might not be as big fool as Thomp-
sons colt, but 1t wouldn't be worth
splitting hairs arguing that bs wasn't.

A special to the Times Democrat
SAYS that at the night session cOnster-
nation was created by Congressman
j. Ii. Beeman, of Scott county, boldly
charging that out of $11 800 original
ly subscribed aud paid in to the Mis-
sissippi State Alliance Exchange only
$1,000 was saved when the concern be-
came defunct over year ago, and
that the stockholders sustained clear
loss of $10,S00 through fragrant mis-
management and crookcdness on the
part of the exchange management.
After Congressman Beeman made
these startling revelations, DIR. b. F.
Passmore, of Madison county, who
was chairman of the late exchange di-
rectory. was asked for n statement.
He said that it was well known in Al
lance circles that the exchange went
down in crOokedness and rOttenness !;
that as chairman of the exchange di-
rectory he offered Il report of its af-
fairs to the Mississippi State Alliance
at Starkville last year, which, had it
been considered by that body, would
have developed the cookedness that
cost the stockholders what they put
in it that the interested parties, how
ever, got wind of the revelations in
his report and had things fixed so as
to prevent it being read to the State
Alliance.
After the revelations were made a
number of its late stockholders who
were there declared their purpose to
h. l, ciftn1 on1 fhn nnilt \"
parties exposed. The company has
become involved in a debt of $4,000,
for which the property is mortgaged.
The stockholders, after considering
many proposed ways of removing the
mortgage finally decided to levy an
assessment of 20 per cent. OH the stock
issued, and in default of the stock
holders paying such assessment on or
before Dec. 10th next the stock shall
be sold to meet the levy.

a trial. 1t is entitled to that, aud it

Hon. J. \. J. Hart was in town
Monday and paid the LEADER II call.
In the course of conversation about
the canvass, he says he stands square
IN on the Ocala demands, where he
has stood ever since he announced his
candidacy, and that he will not vote
for any candidate for t. 5. Senator
who is not in full accord with the AL
lance platform. In other words he is
for Barksdale, unless some more de-
sirable man should take his place on
the Ocala platform before the election
for Senator takes place. Mr.. Hart
further stated that since he learned
he would have an opponent he had
been so engaged with his farm work
that he could not we'll do much can
wasting, and hopes his party and per-
sonal friends will not let his interests
suffer on that account next Tuesday.

In the case of the murder of the
young man, Geo. Johnson, near Flo
IA, the coroner's jury returned a YER
dict charging Jack Fontaine, step
father of the deceased, with having
murdered him. The boy was heir to
considerable property, and the motive
given for the crime is that Fontaine
wanted to make way with him so he
could handle it.
