Tho funny editor of the Vlcksburg
tltrald, whoso articles are now being PX
teuslrcly copied In papers of the United
States, Is Mid to be a young man only
twenty-eight years of age, named Allen.
He was formerly local editor of a paper
In Meridian, Mississippi, and displayed a
fertility of humorous language that i
caused Ids articles to be sought after and
read with avidity. In the war between
the sections Mr. Allen espoused the eauo
of the South, his birth-place, and received
a wound, during battle, In one of his
arms, disfiguring nnd crippling It. Grad
ually advancing In public favor, all that
is necessary now Is lor him to write some
thing excessively funny and brilliant,
veined with suflieient palho to temper
the farcical, nnd he will rank with Mark
Twain and tho other witty men vlioc
writings now pass lor grim and doubtful
humor.

This week two of the Jtcnton inllilla,
while scouting in the vlclnlly of Sneak
Out, discovered a fresh troll, which they
followed Into the middle of a com Held.
There they found signs ofa recent gather
ing of men, as tho corn was trampled
down, and the ground beaten hard with
iooUtep;. Continuing their search they
saw a man through the rows of corn and
commanded hhn to halt. On
Investigation It proved to he old man
Summers, in company with one of his
family, doctoring a horse that had been
peppered with shot. Of course "this was
one of the animals rode by the Ku-klux
ihShl oi mo uisusirotis ritie up
Maddox lane. A church near Sneak-
out bore all the marks of having shel
tered wounded men, as blood marks
were distinguishable on tho floor, and
stained pelccs of cloth lay around.

The DuQuoiii Tribune makes inquiries
about the editor of tlio Uui.i.utis hi the
following manner.
J. II. Oberly, editor of tho Cairo JM
Min, and T. J. Layman, were In our city
last Sunday morning, nnd took passage
for tho Stntcol J'ruiiMlu." As we have
beard nothing from Oberly since that
time, we nre halt Inclined to the belief
that he's been Ku-kluxed. If he Is alive,
this will bring a response from him. and
our anxious mind will ngalu ho restored
to Its accustomed calmness. Wo have no
particular Interest In Oberly, farther than
this, that we don'tllkc to see an editor

niinnbiteil Dr. l.ooiieV. J. C. Willis am
ovarii cniiuiiN-iousers to carry out the

nev was elected president and myself
secretary. At that meeting we agreed to
advertise lu one ot tlie leading papers in
each ot the following cities, namely, Cin
cinnati. Chicago ami St. Louis, and the
selection of the naners was loll with the
secretary. Mr. John Waugh, nsltaut
secretary, wrote to three papers in eaen
nlaee. to iret their nrlces lor inserting the
advertisement for thirty days lrom the
1st of Mav. 1371. The nronodtlons ol

nun desired to gel on advertisement Pu
bis paper. I told him that I did not
think we would be Justified lu going to
such expense, as his paper would not
reach many of those whoso notice we
wished to attract. He replied that he
thought that we ought to publish our ad
vertisement in his paper as tho local pa
per of the county In which tho monument
was to bo built. I replied that if wo be
gan by giving to bis paper an advertise
ment that wo would have to give the
same to others ; inasmuch as the monu
ment was to be built out of tho funds of
the Stale of Illinois, each county paper
would feel that It had as good riglit to
some of the patronage as the county
paper ot Pulaski. Wo separated, he
(I'otter) having failed to pcmtuile mo
that it was best to give him an advertise

were eaueu mio me room lor uiu pur-po-e

and, to my great astonishment, there
was not one tiiat came under the amount
of the appropriation. We were compelled
to call the bidders hack to state to them
tiiat the successful bidder would have to
pay tho expense of advertising, which
they nil agreed to do. We then niter some
talk, agreed to take an informal vote.
I'cMilt, two for Emery & Co., one for
Volk, of Chicago. Adjourned fordinner.
Met after dinner and after exchanging
opinions ns to the merits of the dlllcrcnt
designs, a vote was lakeu. ltesult same
it belore dinner. 1 being in tho minority,
submitted with the best grace I could,
and Joined with the other commissioners
in the performance of thedutlesfor which
wo were appointed.
Mow let me say.here, that no hid. speci
fication or design was presented for tlio
consideration ot the commissioners that
contemplated or even hinted at live stat
ue. The parlies receiving the contract
presented three designs, with three sep
arate set of Fpccillcatlous, and three
separate bids. (X. it. they are all In
my poses-Ion nnd can be seen bv any
one who feels mi Interest lu tlie truth or
fal-lty of tills statement). Messrs.
Emery & Co. received the contract on
tail-competition, and no lair minded man
can gainsay It.
Several articles having appeared In the
Mound City Journal dlllerlng in every
essential particular from this, jn-onoso
to notice lu detail, but very brlelly, some
of them. Article 1st savs, poorest design
accepted. To this article I made no re
ply nt the time, for I did not think it
worthwhile to get Into a newspaper
controversy about a thing that my vote
shows that 1 was not in favor of.
Articles without number 1 shall pa-s
by, and proceed with tho two last that
have appeared. Souio three weeks ago
Mr. I'otter called on mo and asked me
If I did not think the present manage
ment of the Marine Wnvs ot this place
could not atlord him an advertisement,
assuring me at tlie same time that it was
getting pretty llm times with him. 1
told him that 1 did not think that I would
Dojusiineii in doing so. no could not
persuade mo that It would he bet for mo
to do so. The next issuo of his paper
contained tlio startling Information that
the number of the statues had been re
duced from live to three, anil the monu
ment materially reduced in size, for the
solo benefit of the coutrai-lurs, with,
out any corresponding reduction in
price.
Xow thu deMgn lhat was accepted
was inado part of the contract, and Is
lu my keeping to-day, subject to tho In
spection of any and all who desire to
see it, and compare, It with the monu
ment. Alter reading tlio last article, 1
called on Mr. I'otter and intimated mv
desire to post him (so that I would not
bo held up hi a community whoso re
spect and conlldcnco I sincerely desire,)
but found after talking with him for
some time, that there was determination
on his part not to be posted. I then told
him that I had been lu full accord with
the other commissioners since tho letting
of the contract, and I did not want him
to try mid c.xhoncrato mo from nnv
hlamo to bo attached to tlio commission
ers that If the commissioners had done
What he accused them ol, I must cither
be a knavo or fool, mid I very much
preferred tho former to tho latter charac
ter. Ills reply was that It was d d strange
f lie must bo prevented from criticising
tho acts of Kadieal commissioners because-
there was ono Democrat out of tlio
three. Ho was going to mako political

I replied that If tho Democratic Mound
City; Journal had lorako over tho bones
of dead soldiers and sailors that the
party ought to bo d-d thai would toler
ate It, and left hltn.
Then came the i last Issue or the Mound
tltV Journal, III Which Im mv, n.n ,.n
eoinniMoners persuaded Hiunbleton that
Emery'- design was thu best. Potter
knows he has no outhoritv for nsscrtlnir
any such thing, lor no person ever heard
Xow I defy Mr. I'otter to name one
person, Ii lend or foe, who urged mo in
the controversy over the foundation lhat
was llrst built and afterward taken out.
They never persuaded me that shabby
workmanship was the best, nor did thoy
persuade me that llrown or .Metropolis,
was the In st man to keep the money, but
he did Osgood as any one eUo rould;
he received it, and he may hove specu
lated on it whilst in his hands; but the
commissioners' drafts in favor ol ihe con
tractors were always honored.
1 llud that this article is much longer
thou I anticipated. Having noticed so
many of Potter s misstatements, I must
give" him credit for telling some truth.
