MIR. FRASER OR MIR. NELLIs.

Alex S. Fraser, candidate for sher.
if OF Alexander county, will call on
the voters OF the county outside of
Cairo this week, to meet them face
to face and let them see what sort OF
man he Is. Mr. Fraser comes TO the
voters of the county more strongly
backed by the citizens of Cairo than
any candidate has had from here in
many years. His backing comprises
the strong, intelligent, substantial
active and high-minded citizenship OF
Cairo; the men who have much at
stake in the community; who would
suffer most from bad government;
whose interests are closely and rs-fis-
solubly identified with those of the
city and county; who can not afford
TO make mistake IN their endorse
ment of man for the important
office OF sheriff; who feel sure that
they have not made any mistake in
endorsing Mr.. Fraser.
These men who are backing Mr..
Fraser are among the leading men
Of both parties, having laid aside
their party affiliations because they
realize that the issues in the contest
are so vital in their close relationship
to the veal or woe Of the city and
county, that questions OF party policy
sink into insignificance
In short Mr. Fraser represents that
element in this community, CONNER.
cial, industrial, professional, educa.
tional moral and financial, which

be well governed and prosper.
More than likely, an effort will be
made to show that Sheriff Nellis rep
resents the law and order sentiment
OF the community and much will be
made Of his action In resisting the
mob on the night OF Feb. H. An at
tempt will be made to show that his
defeat next month will mean that the
people OF this city and county are a
lawless people and favor mob rule
or that his election is necessary In
order to guarantee protection to the
large element Of law-abiding negro
workers In the city and county. Such
= statement Is glaringly untrue and
can not find even the semblance Of
truth in the circumstances as the,
exist. The people Of this city are al
strongly against mob law as any CIV
aized community In the land; the,
realize perhaps more strongly thai
do the people Of most cities, that Law

The Cairo bulletin., 1910-10-04

So far as The Bulletin is con-
cefned, it probably may claim some
consideration from the people of
Cairo and Alexander county, as an
independent paper; as an earnest ad-
vocate OF clean government; as a
fearless exponent of official weakness
and corruption; as giving voice TO the
demand that the lawless element in
Cairo, black and white, shall be re.
strained-and it does not hesitate to
declare, that, in It's opinion, Mr.
Fraser's election will more surely
give the people OF this city and
county what it has been striving for
than would the election OF Mr.. NelIis

were merely the sheriif's resistance
OF the mob referred to- or to mobs In
general, the sentiment for him in this
community would be overwhelming.
But the issue presented to the peo-
pie of Cairo and Alexander county in
the candidacy of Mr.. Fraser and Mr.,
Nells, so far as it may be said to re-
late TO mobs at all, goes far beyond
and rises far above the affair of Feb.
La and Sheriff Neilis' connection
Herewith; it is not merely resistance
to mobs by the properly constituted
authorities; it is to prevent the rising
of mobs-To PREVENT THE CON-
DlTIoNs WHICH CAUSE THE MOB
SPIRIT TO ASSERT ITSELF IN
THE COMM UNITY.
In other words, the leading men OF
Cairo, backed as we believe, by a
large majority of the best citizenship
of Cairo. prefer Mr.. Fraser to MIR. Mel
