THEY WANT DISMISSAlS.
Franklin White Caps 70 Make an
AnDesI ID ludae Niles.

AS the time draws near for the
next session Of Federal Court ID
jackson the 800 or more franklin
county citizens who we're indicted
at the last term for intimidating
government homesteaders are
growing very uneasy.
Petitions are now being circu-
lated to be presented to Judge
Niles asking the dismissal Of these
indictments. While there is some
likelihood that this course will be
adopted By the Federal anthori-
tiles, the Franklin county citizens
who are behind che petitions have
evidently made a bad break. The
appeal for dismissal to be present
ed to Judge Niles recites that d
number of the witnesses who tes-
tilted before the Federal grand
jury were unreliable and could
not be believed on oath. The APP
peal for clemency is based chiefly
on this ground.
This is not display Of The CON
trite and penltent spirit expected
of the franklin white caps, nor is
it likely that Judge Niles will dis
miss the indictments on such a
plea. At the last term of court,
before continuing the cases, be
delivered a very stern lecture to
the offenders, urging them to go
home and live. in a peaceful and
law-abiding manner, and unless
they come forward with a promise
of this nature at the next term OF
court it is not likely that dismis-
sails will be secured. United
States District Attorney Lee is

liable evidence in hand to convict

The Hero vs. the Refugee.

During the past few weeks &
large number of persons have left
McComb for the woods, alarmed
because ofthe yellow fever at New
Orleans. We are sorry to See. our
people so panic-stricken, and do
not blame anyone for fleeing
from danger, provided they do not
fee from duty, but as there IS noI
real danger now and only remote
possibility of dangerin the future.
we cannot say that we believe
1t wise to flee just now.
No refugee can ever hope to be
q hero. Where would jeff Davis.
X. u. Lee, StonewaIl jackson.
Schley and Dewey and their brave
comrades be today if they had fed
to the woods when their lives were
IN danger2-death only seemed
9 few moments away, and
their dead comrades were falling
by hundreds at their feet, but they
stood there, because duty called,
and today they they are honor
60, and will surely be rewarded
by their Maker.
If such men are found in war
they are also found in panics.
pestilence and epidemlcs, for there
also exist the demands of duty.
but no refugee will be found
among them. Such men were
found in McComb City in 1873.
Some died at their posts and for
that death they are surely happy
with their maker, and some Of
them are among US honered for
their service.
What is dutyg In threatened
crisis it covers a wide scope. If
we are indebted to others it is our
duty to pay our debts, for those
we leave behind may need that
little to buy food and medicine
for the sick. 1t certainly is not
duty to use the earnings Of others
to flee for our own safety. 1t is
our duty to nurse the sick, bury
the dead, feed the hungry and
soothe the bereaved, provided the
fever should ccme, but it has not
come. Then our duty is to keep
the city clean, help maintain quar-.
antine, and do all we can to pre-
vent its coming not only for our
own safety but for the safety
Of our friends and neighbors. Nc
Comb City is our home, a home
made of all our individual homes
and is just as sacred collectively as
it is individually. 1t is one great
family, one great home.
Only those who feel that duty is
their part, will be here to protect
MeComb, the home, our home.
No refugee will nurse the sick,
bury the dead, or feed the hum
CRY, if the fever should visit us.
