EIGHTEEN NIGHTRIDERS
IN COURT At HICKMAN
Nightriders Are Active in Tennes-
see and Missouri.

Hickman, KY, Feb. 19.-The men
here IN Jail charged with "nightriding'
and those out on bond, numbering Is
in all, will be given trial in Judge Stahr's s
court. This case has attracted wide
spread interest throughout this section
and the trial will be largely attended
one.
Almost all of the section between here
and TiptonvilIe has been in this state of
dissatisfaction for some time between
the negroes and whites, with the whites
on the offensive. In different sections
of the bottoms between Hickman and
Tiptonvile notices have been posted
warning the negroes to get out at once,
and quite a number of houses during
the past eight days have been shot into,
only one negro, however, being injured,
tenant on the farm of w. G. Upton,
land owner of this city. The Nightrid-
ers also called at the home of Jim Ow-
ems, white man of that section, just
on the other side of the Kentucky and
Tennessee line, and insisted on his join
ing them, and when he refused by pre-
tending illness, they advised him that
they would be back at later date to
get him, and that he would go with
them or suffer the consequences. The
next day Owens went to Tiptonville and
informed the officers there, who have
been trying to run them down on the
Tennessee side.
At Linda, Mo-, opposite Tiptonville.
a gang has been terrorizing the coun-
try and throughout that section there
are signs of nightrding, also just across
the river from Hickman, at Dorena,
Mo-, there has been trouble of this
kind, the white people warning the ne
groes to stop their work on the govern
ment levee work there, and warning the
boss, L. T. Callahan, to stop working
negro labor or stand the results, warn
ing him first with a note tied with a
bundle of switches and in a second note
with signature of a crude drawing of a
shotgun.
There is much uneasiness throughout
all the bottom lands, much worry and
apprehension on the part of the land
owners, and it is hoped these affairs
will be settled at an early date and quiet
restored among the negro tenants and
hands before time for beginning of
crops.

Negroes Have Fled.

Hickman, Ky, Feb. 22.-The ex-
amining trial of men charged with
nightriding came to a close here
this afternoon. This trial has been
in progress since Friday morning
and after hearing all evidence Judge
E. J. Stair, in whose court this case
was tried, bound them over to May
term of Circuit Court to await the
action of the grand jury. The men
were bound over in the sum of $500
each, and so far none of them have
been able to give bond and are in
Jail here. There are thirteen in
Jail. There are also five others out
on bond who have waived their
right to examining trial and will
await action of May Circuit Court.
In all about fifty witnesses testi-
fed on both sides. The large land
owners who reside here and who
own most of the large plantations
below here in the Mississippi River
bottoms, where the troubles arose,
are very much pleased with the re-
suits of the trial and feel that they
will not have any further disturb
ances.
There have been between rs and
100 negroes left the plantations in
that section on account of the
threats and uprisings and these ne
groes have not yet returned to their
homes and work. That section is a
very fine cotton belt and if the ne
groes are driven away it will leave
the land owners seriously handicap
ped, and for this reason the land
owners are using every effort pos
sible to see that the guilty parties
are convicted.
Those unable to make bond will
be held here in Jail until May term
of court.

Urge Calling Out Militia.

Tiptonville, Tenn, Feb. 22.-An
appeal to the Governor to send the
State Militia and end the night rider
| troubles in this section is being
urged by the citizens of Lake Coun-
ty as the result of continued depre-
dations at various points, with
which the sheriff and his deputies
seem unable to cope.
The night riders have not only
succeeded in badly frightening the
negroes, whom they are attempting
to drive out of this section, but the
white people as well are in constant
dread of further troubles.
Charles L. Phillippy, a leading
citizen of the county near the Ken
lucky border, who has taken Wig
orous stand against the outrages, has
been forced to take precautions for
fear his own life will be taken.
Last night the night riders posted
notices commanding the negroes to
leave Iu6 COuuCJ anu "ch hAAAo |NAA
people who opposed night riding to
remain quiet AS a result the color
ed school teacher at Phillippy came
to Tiptonville this morning and sur
rendered his commission to County
Superintendent Donaldson.
Plans for a number of depreda-
tions were revealed to officers here
by man arrested at Titan, in the
lower part of the county, who was
caught while attempting to burn a
store, and brought to Tiptonville.
He stated that the night riders plan
ned to burn cotton gins, stores and
dwellings, and had also secured dy-
Mantle to be used in blowing up
houses.
Capt. Charles B. Rogan, Adjutant-
General, was called over the tele-
phone this morning and consulted
in regard to the situation and the
advisability of calling out the mi
litia.

Has Cure for Blind Staggers.

Lynnville, Tenn, Jan. 20.-Farmers
and stockmen generally throughout this
community are much interested in a
remedy discovered by L. B. Matthews,
of Waco, for blind staggers in horses.
Mr.. Matthews says it is sure cure and
if followed carefully will rarely ever
fail to save affected animals. In view
of th9 prevalence of the disease for
some time past and the loss of many
valuable horses, Mr.. Matthews has
asked that the remedy be published.
The ingredients are: One pint Of whis-
key, two tabespoonsful of turpentine
and quarter of an ounce of quinine,
we'll mixed. Drench with half of the
quantity and rub between the eyes with
turpentine. The above is enough for
two doses. If the first dose don't re-
lieve in three hours give the second
dose. Mr.. Matthews is much pleased
with his discovery, which he has used
with splendid success, and believes it
will be of incalculable benefit to farm
ers wherever needed and used.
