SHUBUTA, MISS, Oct. 81, 1892.
Editor Mississippi Leader:
1 desire for reasons therein explain
ed, that you will do me the favor of
publishing the correspondence given
below.
For the better understanding of your
readers, will give a brief history of
how this controversy originated.
Mr.. j. S. Williams came to Shubuta
the evening before our primary election
without any announcement of his
coming), collected a small crowd and
made a speech, and in that speech he
stated what thought he ought not to
have said about the farmers and Ali
ance. So next morning ] went to the
polls, reported what he said and kept
all the farmers from voting for him
that | could. After Mr.. Williams was
nominated, people kept talking about
his speech and what said about it, I'M
til one j. A. Evans wrote Williams
about it. Then Williams came out in
a letter in the Mississippi Messenger
denouncing it as a lie. | then wrote
the statement which | enclose to you,
stating what understood Mr.. Williams
to say in his speech, and he then came
out in letter to me published in the
Messenger), attempting to explain his
speech, etc, and Mr.. c. A. Stovall, edi-
tor of the Messenger, also wrote out a
statement and had it signed by few
of the parties who heard Mr.. Williams
speech, stating that they did not I'M
derstand the speech as l did. l then
wrote the second piece given be-
low, and also got some parties who had
known me for 10 or 20 years, to sign a
statement showing how 1 stand in this
county. carried the paper and names
to Mr.. Stovall, editor of the Messenger,
and asked him to publish it. He re-
fused, said he was too good Democrat
to publish anything that would injure
the nominee, etc. l then went to the
other county paper with like success
hence my appeal to you for hearing.

from III. ID. Money, Democratic candi-

his reasons. His name was taken off

Burkitt makes the point that Money

go to the polls on election day, arrange
boxes and vote, and let the world know

A large number of the readers of
the LEADER are members of the
churches belonging to the Fair River
Baptist Association. The LEADER
wishes to remind all such, that at its
last meeting the Association, while not
assuming to dictate the party affilia-
tons of any one, expressed it as its
conviction, by unanimous rising vote,
that no Christian man ought to vote
for candidate or a party, known to be
committed to or in sympathy with, the
licensed liquor traffic. Think about
this when you go to the polls next
Tuesday.

Mrs. Lease says she would consider it
"a public calamity for either Harrison
or Cleveland to be elected" and is as
loyal as ever to Gen. Weaver. Not
withstanding this, however, the lie is
still going the rounds of the Democrat
ic press that she has declared for
Harrison and IS to receive 5000 from
the National Republican committee.

Let not new party men be deceived
by the reports being circulated by
Democratic newspapers that People,
party men are returning to the Demo
cratic fold. 1t is their last desperate
game to deceive and trick the people.
The reverse is the truth, for the Prohi-
bition and Peoples parties both are
growing stronger every day.

Rev L. S. Jones preached fine Pro-

Hon. Pressly Groves of Leake, late
