A Dog Story.

Two senators were telling tall sto-

Rabbits.

Rabbits, which are by consent
able to get a living where no other
quadruped can, become very select
in their tastes where food is album
dant, and soon seek variety. In the
gardens of large house in Suffolk
adjoining park in which rabbits
swarmed before the passing of the
ground game act, it was found that
some rabbits managed to effect an
entrance every night, with a view
to eating certain flowers. They were

A BORN GRUMBLER.
The Kentish Fruit Grower Thinks Him-
self Most Unfortunate Man.

self Most Unfortunate Man.
A stranger tramping in mid-June
through 1.-THE garden of England, !"
as the county of Kent is called, sees
posted on boards and fences notices
announcing that the growing crops
of fruit WILL be sold by auction. He
also sees the fruit-cherries, goose
berries, currants and straw erries-
growing in fields and gardens, and
observes the great barns bursting
with thousands of bushel baskets
waiting to be filed with the ripe
fruit and sent to London. The
stranger, should he express his adj
miration Of the orchards, hopfelds
and market gardens to country
man. will be surprised at two facts:
The peasant proprietor never thinks
of eating any of the fruit he grows,
and the more plentiful the crops the
less pleased he processes himself to
be. This report of a conversation
between a traveller in Kent and
fruit grower-taken from the Dover
Road-shows the fruit grower a
born grumbler, who, in his own
opinion, is most unfortunate man.

THE CAUSE Or 1T.

The Petersburg. Va, INDEX APPEAL
agrees with the Richmond, Va, DAILY
TINES that the only thing to settle the
race question aud TO cause the aboli-
ton of the fraud and corruption at the
ballot-box 10 for the colored vote to
divide.
Both journals, however, seem to be
of the opinion that the division should
be absolutely upon the ground OF ex-
pediency and with no reference to the
principles involved.
We cannot agree to any such propo-
sition. We believe that division OF
our vote should be upon higher. no.
bier, grander basis than this
We oppose the Democratic Party OF
Virginia, because it is against the Fed
eral Constitution and the Bill Of
Rights of Virginia, in that it refuses
to recognize us as the political equals
OF each and every other man.
We are opposed TO the Democratic
Party of Virginia, because it has per-
verified the Declaration of Independ-
ence, and declared it's main provision
to be erroneous.
We are opposed to the Democratic
Party OF Virginia, because it has re-
peatedly shown it's luminosity towards
us by fostering every dangerous here
sy for our overthrow and downfall.
We are opposed to the Democratic
Party OF Virginia, because it panders
to every unsound principle, in order to
secure votes; not pausing in it's march
towards the destruction Of the basic
financial principles upon which this
government is founded.
1t creates panics and then holds 9TH
er parties responsible for them. 1t is
the forerunner of hard times.
Last, but not least, it declines to
admit us to membership within its
confines by passing an iron-ciad rule
declaring that only white male voters
shall be admitted to it's primaries.
We hope to see the dawn of the day
when we can vote for both parties,
principle alone actuating our course,
but that time is not at hand
Even now, colored men vote for in
dividual Democratic white men, be-
cause they know that they are better
than the party they represent.

THE CONVICTION OF FowLKEs.

MINITREE FowLKEs, (white) lawyer,
Commander of the Sons Of Confeder~
ate Veterans Camp has been found
guilty OF conduct, unbecoming a men,
Der and perjury. He admitted the
truthfulness Of the charges, asked for
mercy and was reduced to the ranks
and suspended for eighteen months.
The fact that he was guilty of PERU
ry will wind up his career here for the
balance of his natural life.
And yet this is the logical outcome
OF sending the flower of Virginia's
youth into the black belt, armed and
authorized to violate their sworn obi
cations. Perjury which is akin to
treason has been encouraged and
young men taught that under certain
contingencies it is justifiable,
Rev. JAMES E. Cook told the whole
truth when he said:
Suppose he is guilty. Many Of us
are guilty Of the same offence, but the
world doesn't know it."

fairs continued There are men to-day

NIX. BoYNTOEs MISTAKE.

The members of the Georgia legisla-
ture have placed themselves on record
as being in favor Of lynching. This is
done in ansyer to the remarkable, bat
patriotic message of Governor ATKIN-
SON upon that subject.
Mr.. J. A BoYNToN, one of these leg
islators is quoted as saying:
"Lynching is the result of combined
causes. The practice has more or less
prevailed in times of popular excite
ment. The impulsive chsraeteristic
OF the Anglo-American makes lynchiDg
probable at any time for atrocities and
certain for the most heinous crime so
often perpetrated upon women and
young girls"
But this is no excuse. Time has
demonstrated that these sporadic out
bursts do not tend to check crime but
to increase it. He says:
81 think the Government is wasting
effort to create popular sentiment
against lynching when a woman has
been assaulted. 1t is loves labor lost
for lynchiDg is inevitable so long as
the crime which provokes IL is COM
mitted. All laws on that line put on
the statute books fall stillborn and are
dead before they are promulgated.
say this because it is true"
This argument would apply to other
crimes SIS well. 1t is q step backward
and brings Us to the Feudal Ages.
A person mad with frenzy is for the
time being crszed, and it is folly to al
lege that crazy person is competen
to trs prisoner alleged to have com
mitted :. crime. Moreover the greater
proportion of lynchings is not for TIT
crime of rape.
1t has been demonstrated that thu
law is the safest medium for the pun
ishment of crime. Without the re
strsining hand. the innocent are liabl
to suffer with the guilty. 1t may b.
that Mr.. BoYNToE believes all that h
says. and. il so. he and his associate
are the worst enemies that the com
monwealth has ever had.
Governor ATKINSON has taken bols
stand. He is for Georgis's prosperity
and il supported will blaze the way T.
