By request of large number or vot-
ers of the county Of all political parties
we ask the Cresset and Klowa Journal
this question, and We hope they will be
courteous enough to the people of Bar
Der county TO answer it: When did
Dobson become free silver man? Was
1t before or after the republican con-
vention? How long.

The only candidate whose name has
not been favorably mentioned in the
Cresset since the republican conven-

the Cresset knows of no admirable trait

he deserves recognition? Surely this is
an oversight on the part of the Cresset.
There is one thing for which Mr.. Lor-
ton is especially fitted. lie is a first

The only criticism Of the Negroes

any manner bs considered Just is that
they are not given social equality with

never have been and they never will be

ment need not be made to any person

nifty 10 come Ia contact with the higher
civilization Of your section and the better
educational advantages that your states
can afford. This would give your people
full opportunity 70 encourage social equal
ity among the races and all the attendant
results in miscegenation.
Let me suggest that you spend some OF
your annual appropriation taking the "col-
ored people" unto yourselves, completely
and entirely away from the ''scoundrels"
and wolves This course will greatly
reduce expenses Of elevation and hasten
the work you have undertaken.
Proper treatment will always be &C

TIE NEGRO IN rHE sOUTa.

Governor NoRTHEN, OF Georgia, has
come to the defense OF the south in its
treatment Of the negro and devotes
several columns in the Atlanta Consti-
tuition to the subject, replying to an at
tack made in q NOrehern religious
journal upon the white people Of the
South.
That the good people Of the North,
who are always dsprecating the cOndi-
tion of the southern negro and berating
the whites for this alleged maltrsat-
ment Of "the colored brother, are mis-
taken, there can be no question. No
complaint is heard from the southern
negro. the assistance OF the northern
people is never asked, save in
occasional instances 20 assist In
building churches, and the negroes OF
the South are perfectly cOntented'
more so than are the whites with
whom they live, who get no northern
or northern credit for what
they are constantly doing to uplift the
negro race. The home mission society
represented by the journal in question
boasts Of the contributions it has made
20 elevate the negro. Gov. NORrHEN
replies:
III. from your abundance, your organiza-
ton has. with the proper spirit, contrib
uted three millions OF money IN the last
thirty wears for the education and eleya-
ton Of these people, you have done well,
and am pleased 90 give you credit 20 that
extent for your gooo work. III, however,
the state of Georgia, alone, from the pow
ertv OF its people. has furnished double
that amount I'm half the time named, we
have done far better, and 10 is but fair Tor
your reports 90 say so.
The State OF Georgia is not alone In
this work. There is not Southern
State in which the white people have
not contributed abundantly for the edu-
cation Of the negro. Negro schools,
kept up by the State, high schools, col
leees and institutions for higher educa-
tiop are found in ali the States, and the
whites, who are practically the only
taxpayers in the South, are their sup
porters. The facilities afforded the ne
proes in the South for obtaining an ed
ucation are fully equal tO-those afforded
the whites.
Once in a while Southern negro re-
csives a deserved punishment for scrne
brutal crime and the Northern press
bowls outrage, but just as often and
even more frequently in proportion to
the negro population is Northern ne
gro similarly punished, Were tBs OBJ
portunitiss for the crime peculiar to the
negro as often offered ia the North, his
punisbnsnt would be as frequent and

ONE SIDED JUSTICE.

Much 20 the relief Of the long-suffer-
ing public. the end has como At last in
the POLLARD BREcKINRIDeE breach Of
promise suit, and II is to be earnestly
hoped that the American people may
never again be subjected to the slcken-
ing details OF a similar case.
Every incident ia a long life Of shame
and immortality mas been paraded before
the public gaze without the omission Of
single nasty detail. BY their own
confessions, amply supported by the
proofs Of their guilt, the parties TO the
suit have proven themselves to be, the
one a wanton, the other libertine. and
both OF the bassst sort. Not satisfied
with their lives Of shame, they have
played the part Of Infamous hypocrites
and assuming a guise OF respectfully
have forced themselves reeking with
vice and infamy, into the homes Of the
first people OF Jae land.
The sympathy OF generous people
has gone out, as It always does, TO a
woman who has been wronged. But
what claim upon the public sym
patty should woman have
who, fully aware OF the depths
to which she has fallen and
Of all the consequences, not only
by her own consent, but even by her
own solicitation continues such rela-
tions for so long time? Had she, q
school girl, fallen a victim to the sill
very tongue OF the grey-haired orator
and yielded to his solicitations, she
might have been a proper object of
pity, but when she consents to, and
pleads for, a continuation OF the
relations during so long d period OF
time, and carries her infamy into the
honorable family circle, she loses all
claim to pity, or sught but charity.
Both have been guilty and both
should be made 10 pay the penalty.
The infamous libertine who violated
the most sacred vow a man may take
on earth-the marriage vow-and d.
vided his time between his wife in tue
bosom Of her happy family and this
wanton in house OF prostitution, who
dishonored not only himself but all the
reputable families into which he
introduced bis paramour, for him
no punishment could De too Sc
we're. The publicity which has been
given to his every act, the scathing
terms in which he has been denounced
by counsel and which go into almost
every home in the United
States, and the verdict even though
il had been several times as
great, are little punishment for the
crime against civilization and society,
Of which he has been guilty.
But why should the woman be re-
warded? Her conduct has been in
every way almost as shameIul as was
his, and why should a premium be
placed upon immortality in woman?
Instead Of being given verdict, she also
should be punished. 1t is no worse for
society to have bad men among its mem
bers than to have bad women, aud in
stead Of rewsrdIng this woman for her
iniamy, society would be the better
were she also made to pay the penalty
for the crimes against society, in which
she played so important part.
Colonel BRECRINRIDGE has been justly
punished, but the woman has been I'M
justly rewarded.
