terror against colored men who are

the situation become that one of the

OF renting land to colored men has
been such that at the end of each
year when settlements were made the
poor farmers were so defrauded they
had not enough to pay the unjust
claims and they entered each new

Nelson is a virtue born of necessity.
The Senator had expressed desire
to retire to private life. No Democrat
stands ghost of show to succeed
him. If he runs again and is elected
by both parties, the Democrats have
lost nothing. A real display of non
partisanship by Democrats would be
to- abstain from contests in States
which are normally Republican, but
where there now happen to be Demo
