LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.

Capt. white of Shelburne Endorsed for
Couuty Senator from the "South Side"
To the Editor OF the Free Press;
Some days since | noticed a communicn-
ton In your paper proposing the name OF
worthy ctizen Of our town for senator from
the south side According to tho ''un-
written law and custom it will be conced-
ed that Shelburne is entitled to the privilege
of naming a candidate for senator this year
las we have not had one since 1880 pro-
viding we present a person who is ac-
ceptabe to the people of the county Such
Il man we believe we have in the person OF
Capt. Robert j. White.
Mr.. White is an honorable honest, up
right, Christian gentleman, who is thorough
ly posted in public affairs, both State and
national, n loyal republican and an out
spoken enemy of fraud, corruption aud un-
necessary expenditures in State affairs, a
friend of temperance. education and oil
laws that Will conduce to the public welfare
and has proven himself careful, conserva.
tive and efficient person in official positions,
both State and federal. He has had
legislative experience as II member of the
| House of Representatives; and we believe if
elected to the Senate would prove valua
BILE member of that body and be an honor to
our county in its councils
! Consequently we hope the republicans of
| the county will at the coming county con-
| ventlon heartily second our suggestion and
nominate Capt White for senator from
| the south side of the river.

LEXINGTON, KY, June 2.-Colonel
Breckinrldge had an audience OF ABOUT
600 persons, of whom 20 were ladies, at
Midway to-day. He spoke for an hour
aRd twenty minutes and scored his op-
ponents. In referring TO his chief op-
poneRt, VIM. c. Owens, he said that
Mr.. Owens could go back to
his gambling in Louisville and
Chicago after the primary, that Owens
was never in the case, and if he, (Brsck-
inridge) was dead, or removed from the
district it would be just the same to
Owens since be was never at any time
between Owens and Congress. de
poked considerable fun at Judge
George Kinksad, who made such a
strong speech against him at the mass
meeting at Versailles yesterday, but
when referring to the address OF Rev.
John r. Deering, who was his OLD war
comrade, he admitted that Rev. Deer
ing's words had hurt him worse then
anything that had been said against
him. II their places could be changed
the Colonel declared he would not
speak Of Deering as DeerIng had
spoken of him. He said that the suf-
ferIng his old comrades swords had
caused him could not be paid for by q
lifetime in Congress. He also e1corl-
ated Prof. McGarvey, the preacher who
has been 50 bitter against him.
After Breckenridge finished, Evan
Settle, his opponent, took the stand,
when nearly fifty ladies marched into
the hall and were given seats oy the
men who had occupied them up TO
that time. Then Colonel Breckinridge
and nearly all of his followers left the
house and Settle finished his speech TO
the ladies and Owens men, who came in
after Breckenridge finished. There is
great bitterness over the affair at Mid
way, the people Of that place being
about evenly divided.
Brsckinridge Will speak ut Frank
fort, Monday, and Settle at New Castle.

passing along a street in the centre Of

The negroes emPtied their revolvers at

did no more serious damage than break
a number OF windows. When their
ammunition failed the negroes fed and
escaped. The Slavs were infuriated
at the loss OF their prey, and another
eoiored worker happening along at
the time, they rushed az him.
He ran into the grounds
OF private dwelling, but
was Overtaken and beaten terribly.

some way 30 break away aud run TO the
house OF Mrs. Frank Washabaugh, who
opened the door Of her dwelling aOd he

ties we're run up from MoOrewOod. Six
prisoners were taken by the deputies
