How Things Change.

Charles Sumner, the odious aboli.
ZIONIST of Massa chusetts, was caned on
the floors of Congress by the slave
holding aristocratic Brooks of South
Carolina, yet the eloquent Lamar oI
Mississippi electrified the halls of the
same Congress and the world, by his
panegyric upon this same Sumner
which was the initial step in bridging
the gulf between the North and South.
Lincoln the despised abolition presi.
dent. whose election brought about the
war, was execrated by the South when
inducted into Office. We mourned his
death, enshrined his memory (for his
good deeds) in our hearts, and sing his
praises to day. Horace Greedy, the
fath-r of abolition, whose paper even
was dangerous for man to read in
the South, was voted for by us for pres
ident. Grover Cleveland and John a..
Carlisle are to day arch traitors, and
enemies to their country and people,
in the eyes of the free silver advocates
all over this broad land. Yet the dav
will come when these same people will
place them in the same mich of fame,
and disinterested patriotism, as the
dead patriots alluded to above. Alex
ander the II of Russia, once when the
destiny of very great battle was
turned in his favor by one of his gen.
erals, exclaimed. "thank God for Scob-
loeff." We say thank God for Cleve-
land and Carlisle.

Capt. Frank Johnston,

No man has personal claim to any
office. but in the history of the past il
often appears that the merits of an in
dividual are of such character thai
in justice cannot be ignored by tn.
party. This is true of Hon. Franz
Johnston, OF Jackson. candidate fol
! Attorney General of this State.
He has been, during his whole life
time true and faithful democrat
In the terrible crisis of 1875, he rem
dered such valuable assistance to the
chairman of the Democratic State
Executive Committee. that Senator
tieorge declared that no man in
the State had rendered higher service
to the State and party than Frank
Johnston.
The skill, tact and judgment which
characterized the management of the
Lowry King canvass of 1881, in which
Executive Committee. is fresh written
in the memory of the people of Missis-
sippi.
Mr. Johnston has never before aske d
a nomination for any office from his
party.
All of his predecessors in the chair
manship of the State Executive Com
mittee were generously rewarded by
the party. Hon. E. Barksdale was
twice sent to Congress. Ex-Governor
Lowry was twice elected Governor,
and Senator George after his service
as chairman in 1865, served on the
supreme bench. and afterwards was
elected to the U. 5. Senate.
Mr.. Johnston is now serving an un-
expired term as attorneys general by
app, intment of the Governor. and has
discharged the duties Of the Office with
painstaking care and distinguished
ability.
In such case it has been the gener
al custom aud usage of the party to
bestow upon the incumbent a nomina.
tien for full term by way of endorse
ment.
Upon every consideration of dignity
and propriety the Gazette submits
that the party would stultify itself by
a refusal to recognize the merits and
deserts of Mr.. Johnston.

Ed. TINES.
In looking over the list of candidates
for the different offices of this County
as published in the TINES. | see the
name of A. c. Minter for Assessor.
The voters of Madison County could
not vote for any one more deserving.
he is fully competent, he is honest, and
democratic to the core. He was born
and raised at Sharon, this County, and
has lived there all his life. He entered
the Confederate army as private in
George Wards Battery from this Coun-
ty, and made gallant soldier. The
proof of which, he carries an empty
sleeve. While In the Virginia army he
furnished su5stitute to take his place.
so as to come home to take care of an
aged mother. He afterwards Joined
Cowen's Battery from Vicksburg. On
Gen. Hoods memorable march from
Georgia to Tennessee, his battery was
thrown forward at Decatur Alabama,
and there on the 26th day of October
1864, he lost his right arm while acting
as No, 4 ut the gun. He tries to make
an honest living, but farming with one
hand is rather an up hill business.
think the good democratic voters of
Madison County, old and young, could
not vote for any one more deserving,
for the office of Assessor.
