 The organization of Il good band requires quite an expenditure of money, and to meet this expense, a committee has been appointed to wait upon our business men and cit- izens generally for assistance.

''QlJEL" TALKS.
An Interesting Communication From
 One of Our Country Citizens.

EDITOR GRAPHIC:
 If the citizens of Jefferson county are having their opinions moulded by the press of Pine Bluff concern Ing the McCoy-Gould and Core Alexander controversies what un- godly shapes will have assumed by next September election. Each faction has it's blood-thirsty brand upon the snowfaKe throat of the other, both, according to the news Dapers-'sPlne Bluffs Beacon Lights of Truthe-trying to smother the voice of justice. Which side of this COL Ltroversy is to be believed. Both cannot be right. Wrong has been committed somewhere, by somebody. The good people of Jefferson county are accused, all over the State, of corruption in politics, and the news papers are giving the Democratic party thorough airing in every home and hamlet, every town and village they visit throughout the coun try.
 The situation is not like Dr. Steele, the Protestant, said to the Pope of Rome, "the only difference between our churches, in their opin- ions of the certainty of their doc trines, is, "the Church of Rome is infallibe and the Church of England IS never in the wrong. The wisest and best of men, as they grow older, doubt their opinions, and conse- Quently are ever on the alert, searching for the opinion of others. We peruse the columns of the Press Eagle and hear anathema after an athena hurled at the Graphic-we read the Graphic and hear thunder bolt after thunderboIt hurled at the Press-Eage
 Let us briefly consider the text of each of these papeIs and draw a few conclusions. The Press Eagle says that the county central con- mittee has decided that Mccoy is the nominee for sheriff and that Core is the nominee for treasurer, and that therefore as good Democrats, and for the sake of peace ana bar mony in our party ranks, no atten- tion should be paid to the vail of woe of the defeated candidate Gould and Alexander. Tae Graphic claims that fraud was perpeirated in the recent primary election whereby Gould and Alexander were defeated respectively for sheriff and treasurer and that therefore the wrong should be righted.
 Truth can hurt many men, an in vestigation fo.' the sake of truth ought not to hurt any mao. There is path that leads to the truth con cernlng this recent election, and 1t is the duty ot those entrusted with authority in this county to follow that path and let the people know the result of their stigation. Has this been done? His honor Judge Grace emphatically charged his last grand jury to thoroughly investigate the reputed recent cleo tion frauds and if such were found to bring the perpetrators to justice. That grand Jury assembled, inyesti- gated, found that irregularities (another name for fraud) had occur red, all this over their own sigma lures, but left the people, those whose rights had been injured, far out at sea, still. floating upon wave of discontents
 Did this grand jury execute the orders of his Honor? And after the report was made was his honor sat isfied?

JOHN THOMAS, A NEGRO, FRlGHTFULLY SLAsHED
 F. H. YOUNG
AND MADE HIS ESCAPE.
Mea Fought in a Dark Back Yard-Both Would-Be
 Doctors.

H. F. Young. a well known mid dle-aged white employ of Cotton Belt shops, was slashed with a razor Saturday night while fighting with negro named John Thomas alias "Billo Thomas. The cutting occur. red in the rear yard of the home Of an old negro woman named Fannie Whitman. on East Second avenue. The news of the fight aud It's prob ably fatal results we're telephoned to the police soon after. Chief Philpot and assistants together with Sheriff Mccoy and Graphic representative hurried to the scene.
 Upan arriving at the place sever- al men who reside in the neighbor- hood, were searching suspicious places with torehlights. Each car. ried double barreled shot gun or winchester and if the man had been discovered aud apprehended 1t would have terminated in . lynch- ing.
 The vicinity was thoroughly searched but without success. The negro's hat was found near the scene where the fight took place. He, however. was doubtless many miles away at that lime.
 Aunt Fannie Waitman told the following story. ''I heard the men fussing and asked them not to squabble over the matter. Mr. Young was sitting on my rear steps when Thomas came up to him and said If 1 would sit around white women like you do here the white men would hang me then they squabbled some more and I heard two blows struck. That was all [ saw or heard. Yes, Thomas lived here in my house. He used to work for Mir. Thalheimer at his stock yard. "
 Fannie's daughter was sick in bed. She said Thomas had been giving her medicine but sbe had no faith in him and changed to Young. It is evident from the latter's story that Thomas thought that Young was too intimate with the daughter, to whom be was paying attention and wanted to get him out of the way.
 The weapon used by Thomas was razor. The cut was under the left side of the jaw and the blade was showed in an upward direction cutting a gash about six inches deep Young was cut across the wrist also. From the two wounds fe lost probably 9 gallon of blood, having started for belp after the negro made bis escape.
 He fell exhausted on East Second avenue and was found a half hour later by Alderman Theodore Waller man, who band just closed bis store and was en route home. Dr. Troupe dressed tbe wounds but 1t is very doubtful if Young will re- cover
