Ruston, little town in the west.
ern part of the State, is one of those
places that is supposed to be strictly
prohibition, but where blind tigers
flourish and grow fat. Last week two
were discovered, and it will only be
a few weeks when more will come to
light. Whisky will be sold and
drank, and it is much better to
license the sale OF it than this blind
tiger business.

A reign of terror has existed a,
Pana, ILL.,, mining town, for several
days, on account of mine owners i'm
porting negro labor from the south,to
take the places of the laborers who
are out on a strike. A battle was
fought last week and several negroes
were killed. The sheriff refused to
disarm the whites, and the imported
labor is getting a rough deal.

A large number Of prominent bust
ness men and planters of Tallulah in

We wish them success with the en-
terprise.

yellow fever, was found in a negro
church near Phillips, a little town
not far from Jackson, Miss, on Sun
day last, and the church was set on

Georgia went seventy thousand
majority for the Democratic ticket
and il it had not been for the terrible
storm the night before the election
that kept thousand from the polls,
the majority would have went over
one hundred thousand. The Pop

Yellow fever continues to spread,
until now over third of the coun-
ties in Mississippi are infected, while
in Louisiana about the same thing
exists. With the very cold weather
of the past few days the fever should
not spread, and it will not be over a
week or ten days when it will
entirely disappear.

A negro by the name of Jessie
Shelton, living near Filters landing
in lsaquena county, Miss, wrote an
insulting letter to young white lady
OF the county last week, and the
negro was found hanging at the end
OF rope few days afterwards. II
looks like that colored men have had
warnings enough that such things
will not be tolerated, and that when.
ever they do, their fate is doomed.

Boss Quay and his son Richard r.
Quay, of Pennsylvania, were arrest
ed one day last week on the charge
of ''misuse of public funds and con-
spiracy with John S. Hopkins, for
mer cashier of the Peoples Bank of
Philadelphia, to divert public money
to their own use." The Quays
were placed under $4,000 each.
Hopkins killed himself after the fail
ure OF the bank last year. The
evidence is pretty strong against the
Republican boss.

If the city of New Orleans thinks
that the course it is taking in regard
to the yellow fever epidemic viii do
it any good, it will find out its mis-
take when it is too late. Without
there is a national quarantine law

surprising if every village, towu,
city and State in the South didn't
quarantine against New Orleans by
