DEATH OF HON. JOHN II. CAMERON

DEATH OF HON. JOHN X. CAMERON.
The announcement of the death of
Hon. John r. Cameron, which occurred
at his home in Madison county, on the
morning of the 25th ult., was received
with the deepest regret and sorrow. AS
one who knew him we'll and esteemed
him greatly, the editor of The LEADER
reproduces the following brief but
faithful tribute to his memory from
the Vicksburg Herald:
No man in the State had a wider cir
Gle of devoted friends, or was held in
higher esteem for noble and manly
qualities, than Col. Cameron. Just and
generous in his judgment, true and can
did in all of the relationships of life,
genial and courteous of manner-he
was high type of what is best in the
old time Southern planter; a class that
will soon be known only in memory
and tradition. He had in his employ
hundreds of men-his business trans
actions were large; all were dealt with
in the most scrupulous and exact sense
of Justice and right, tempered by lib
erality. OF wrong-doing no one ever
accused him-his word was bond that
was never broken. Such is the tribute
"a rare one indeed-of one with whom
he had dealings running through a
score of years, and involving hundreds
of thousands of dollars.
Than the word gentleman" no other
is more hackneyed and abused. And
yet in it's best and highest sense no
other conveys so pure a meaning of a
pure and lofty manhood. 1t is the
ideal of this term that all will recog-
nize as so we'll applying to the charac-
ter and life habits of John r. Cameron.
He fulfilled all of it's essentials. And
long will he be remembered by men
and women of his circle of acquaint.
ance, of all classes, creeds and colors
as a gentleman par excellence.

All Honor to Private John AlIen-His
Canvass Not in Vain.

Canvass Not in Vain.
The time will come in Mississippi
when some of those who are now ac-
cusing Mr. Allen of doing wrong in ex-
posing, as he thought, the errors and
mistakes of Gov. McLaurin, will be
his defenders. 1t will be most unfortu-
nate for Mississippi, as it would be for
any State, for the time to ever come
when the public acts of officials cannot
be criticised. This is one of the safe
guards-if not the bulwark of the re-
public. Had this right been destroyed,
Mississippi would today be controlled
and governed by Republicans and
aliens. 1t was the exposure of Ames
and his Republican allies that caused
their overthrow in the State This ex-
posure came from the rostrum, the
platform and the press, and it may be
put down as a certainty that Mississip-
pi will never have another governor
who will have so mnch to defend in his
administration as has Gov. McLaurin.
Much of the credit for this will be due
to Hon. John Allen. He will not sue
ceed in being elected to the United
States Senate, but his canvass has not
been in vain.
The Herald mentions these facts
now, not because it is any champion
of Mr.. Allen, but to remind the over
jealous friends of the governor that
they may carry their Civilizations too
far. Allen was honest in thinking the
governor needed criticising for his
acts, and would have been a political
and moral coward had he failed to so
express himself. He has done the
State a good service and whether he
reaches the goal of his ambition or not,
he will have the proud satisfaction of
knowing that he did what he conscien-
tiously believed to be his duty Yazoo

THE NEED OF YOUNG MEN-THE
DUTY OF THE HOUR.

II asked to name that which is the
almost universal need of young men,
the empnatic reply would be, busi-
ness education.
1t has now reached the point that it
is practically impossible for young
man to get a start in life without it,
and all will doubtless remember the
adage that "a good start is half the
battle" A business education not on
ly gives this good start, but better
ending, for it thoroughly qualities him
to ascend the ladder of promotion and
reach the highest round of success.
In urging young men to attend the
Ga. Ala. Business College, at Macon,
Ga, under the presidency of Prof. E.
l.. Martin, formerly of this State, we
are governed by the fact, it is clearly
to their own individual interest so to do,
for it guarantees to save them time and
money on what is conceded to be the
most thorough course ever devised.
The college guarantees positions,
and pays the railroad fare of students.
Excellent board and lodging are fur
nished at the very low rate of So per

1t seems to us no clever, good citizen
would have office against the consent
of majority of his race, and surely a
true christian would pause and reflect
before he would give his consent to ac-
cept official position at such sacrifice
of principle as has characterized the
just closed. We don't know
who will be declared the nominees at
this writing, but it is certain no man
has been elected Independent of the
purchased and purchasable black vote,
and the reputable people of the coun-
ty, white and black alike, should see to
it that the entire outfit is buried out of
sight in the November election. PeO-

"YOURS IN CHRIST"
Disgraceful Rusults of Lugging the Negro
into the Democratic Primary in
Chickasaw.


OF all the degrading canvasses that
were ever witnessed in this country
carpet-bag days not excepted, the one
that closed yesterday is entitled to the
cake. To see men who claim respecta-
bility arming the mercenary black ras-
Gals, who have been making harvest
of the campaign, selling to everybody
that was mean enough TO buy, Is
enough to disgust every decent voter
in the county, but when leading church
members will sanction such proceed
ings, and ministers of the gospel shut
their eyes to the fearful demoraliza-
ton which such conduct entails upon
the community, we wonder at times to
what depth of depravity the Democ-
racy would not descend to retain place
and power. 1t is said white men whose
names are conspicuous on church rolls
have actually engaged in the disrepu-
table business of buying negroes to
vote in the Democratic primary in Or
der that one candidate may triumph
over another, and in many instances
negro preachers have disgraced their
calling by making themselves the me-
dunn through which the purchase and
sale was consummated. We heard of
letter which one of these agents of
Satan addressed to a candidate which
read thus:
Dear Mr.
Please send me a gallon of
whisky for the use of the boys.
Yours in Christ,

AS TO OUR CANDIDACY, ETC.

Well we got licked to some extent,
but we ran our race with patience. We
never felt better in our life. We are
glad we made the race. We will make
another one some day. We have learn
ed whole lot of things, prominent
among which is, when man starts
into politics behind, it is very easy
matter for him to stay behind. This
he can do without making any canvass
at all Out of about twenty five hun
dred votes cast, we received something
over seven hundred. The campaign
was hot indeed We had to combat
two talented young lawyers who knew
better how to manage things than we
did. After summing the whole matter
up, we feel quite sure we would have
been elected If there hadn't been so
many votes cast for the other fellows.
During the whole campaign we kept
in good humor. There is nothing
funny to a man when he is mad. As
for fun, we had it by the acre. Our
opponents will testify to the truth of
what we say on this line. Having run
IN the same groove for twenty odd
years, we felt that we needed some
thing of this sort. We realize that by
becoming candidate, we have made
many friends and if we have made an
enemy we don't know it. We were
never more hopeful of our country
than we are today. We believe that
the time is coming when the man who
undertakes to ride into office astride
OF jugs of liquor and kegs of beer will
De buried face foremost so if he
scratches in any direction it will be

,ime Is coming when the people will

laws and to fill their various places of

CONNECTICUT HEIRS.

Hiram r. Mills of Hartford is In
communication with a law firm of
Houston Tex, which is anxious to
learn of heirs of Ebenezer r. Hale,
who, it is believed. went from this
state to Texas and who died there in
1887 or 1888. He was possessed of a
valuable tract of land at the time of
his death and the Texas lawyers say
that heirs of the man can come into
possession Of the property.
Francis NJ Hale of No. 1924 Broad
street, of Hartford, has written to
Mr.. Mills that he is of the opinion that
Ebenezer Hale was an uncle of his
father. He says that mani times he
had heard his father talk of an uncle
Eben who went away and who was
never heard of Mr.. Hale writes to
Mr. Mills that his father and grand
father were natives of Glastonbury
The Texas lawyers in their letter to
Mr.. Mills say:
1--WE know of a valuable tract of land
which was owned by Ebenezer R. Hale
at the time of his death. Our best in
formation is that he died or was killed
in 1897 or 1888, while he was soldier
in the Texas Mexican war; that he
came to Texas from Connecticut from
or near Hartford; that he as gun
smith by trade; that his wife, whose
name was Caroline or Constance Hale,
in Connecticut and survived
him. We believe that the heirs of Hale
can recover this property now valua-
Bile land. If records of births, mar
riages and deaths are kept in Connec-
ticut it may be easy to find the heirs"
