trying TO allure it into egregious
errors and dismal pitfalls. For in

which is the National Political
Bible, Il would not have based an
editorial upon a fake interview be-
tween the President and Senator
Bruce, relative TO the appointment

Is a deserving man and the people

POLITICAL PERSECUTION.

Ne admire a bold and brave
man, We appreciate lovely game
Of politics, but when men resort TO
political chicanery and demogog-
uery and corrupt measures TO
blacken mans character and repu-
tation, We then think il is about
time to call halt,
The eowardlY and unmsnly fight
that is being made on Col. James
Hill Of Mississippi, By a set OF po-
litical satellites, to weaken his
influence in his state and put him
in bad order with the sdministrs-
ton, should not be considered in
the least BY President Mckinley.
Col. Hill has held some Of the most
responsible positions Of any man
in the state of Mississippi he has
been in positions where ne has had
the distribution Of patronage and
this is the first time in the his
tory Of Mississippi's politics that
Col. Hill has been accused Of wrong
doing.
The BEE is confident that Col.
Hill Will come out with colors
fying. IL is nothing more than
political persecution.
