nation will prove blessing in disguise.
So far as the black belt and this county
is concerned, it has brought the white
people of our county together, healed all
old political breaches, and on all hands,
with common consent, you can hear
every white man who has the good of
the country and his own and his family's
interest at stake saying: Goodwin and
his negro allies must be downed." The
dark days OF carpetbag and negro rule
are still fresh in the minds of this peo-
pie, and no power on earth will saddle
the calling yoke of bondage" and ne
gro officeholders on us again. Taking
a thorough canvass of four or five of the
largest beats in this county as stand
ard to judge the rest, there will not be
fifty white voters in this county who will
cast their votes for GOODWIN

Oats have been housed, and the recent
showers have been the salvation" of
old corn. The cotton crop is in excellent
condition, and is taking on fruit.
