New ALBANY, MISS, June IS. For
come time past the New Albany Ga
2 ute, weekly paper published at this
place by H. E. Blakeslee. has been
waging bitter and relentless war
against Whitecaps, blind tigers, gam
blers and other law breakers. Numer-
Gus threats have been made against
Editor Blakeslee and his newspaper,
but these have only had the effect OF
making his editorials more caustic
and his shafts more pointed.
Last night the Gazette Office was
broken open by q mob, the building
sacked and the type and machinery
dumped into the streets and destroyed.
Not content with this outrage. the
gang returned to the building and
literally smashed every piece of furni-
ture into kindling wood. After de-
stroying everything in sight. the out
laws sneaked out OF town as quietly IS
they entered. Several of the members
of the mob have been spotted and will
be arrested and punished.
The outrage has caused great indig-
nation, and nothing will be left I'M
done to bling the parties to justice.
Editor Blakeslee announces that he
will telegraph for new material and
renew the war next week with re-
doubled vigor.

The Fa Ymer and the News
paper Man

Many men think that newspaper
men are persistent dunners. By way
OF comparison let us suppose that a
farmer raises 1000 bushels Of wheat a
year. and sells this to 1000 persons in
all parts of the country, great por-
ton Of thcm saying; Il will hand you
a dollar in a short time" The farmer
! does not want to be small. and says
all right Soon the 1000 bushels are
gone, but he has nothing to show for
it, and he then realizes that he has
fooled away his whole crop and its
value to him is due in Thousand little
driblets, consequently he is seriously
embarrassed in his business because
his debtors, each owing him one dol
lar, treat it as small matter, and
think it would not help much. Con-
tinue this kind of business year in and
year out as the publisher does, how
long would he stand it? A moments
thought will convince any one that a
publisher has cause for persistent
dunning. National Labor Tribune.
Prof. Virgins, the weather prophet,

water from one side of the country to
another. comes across a telegraph line
in its way, is robbed OF its electricity,
which is necessary to enable it to carry
water. and the result is a deluge. caus-

needed, and drouth at some other

the only thing that will pay debt
The country in which live has
large debt. When it was made all
the gold and silver in the world
could have been turned into Ameri-
can money to the desire of the own
ers. We pay that debt with wheat,
corn, hogs cattle and other products
Of the farm. Because gold and sill
yer were thus monetizable, money
was plenty, large quantity of them
could be had for given quantity of
farm produce. We paid 10 per
cent on our county debt as annual
interest. Wheat was about sl.5O
per bushel. Now we have reduced
the interest to . per cent and wheat
is oOcents per bushel and under. The
real rate Of interest paid is higher
now than then, though the nominal
interest is lower. This is because
money has been made scarce by the
raid on the constitution.

raided and eight men killed in cir
Gle whose radius was not over seven
ty-hve miles. The men who did
that had exactly the same principles
that the members of the ring have
whose mouthpiece you are in con
gress and they hadpersonal courage.
Your ring is plundering in a way in
| which personal courage is not re-
quired.
