Bennett, who assisted,. Fred SWlens to sling mini at U. K. Vartlaman through the ol runns of the Jackson Evening News, has come to grief. He has Lfn eonvieteJ of one of the blackest crimes in the catalogue- j bigamy. The jury was out just J five minutes and found the mud-; hlinger guilty. He has been sen tenced to the penitentiary for ten years. By some evli chance Bennett drifted to Jackson. There was a lot of dirty work to be done at the Capitol City. James K. Vartlaman was to be defeated", for the United States Senate. His character wsa to be ruined; his reputation destroyed and a dirty campaign of defam ation inaugurated. The newspap er organ had been found, but its? editor alone was not equal to the task. Bennett, the slush dinger, was employed to help. His pen reeked with vitupera tion as he dipped it into the slime of falsehood and abuse and wrote calumny that pervaded the State with stem-h rivaling that of the Augean stables. This man injected into the politics of Miss issippi to aid another (also an interjection) to accomplish the ruin of an honorable candidate, in the interest of corporations, trusts and predatory wealth, con st it nt es the blackest epot fln the pages of State politics While flie slush was flowing from the pen of this man Ben nett, applauded ami sanctioned. bv the See ret , Caucus crowd, n his heart to rui le lile ami hap piness of one of Mississippi pure daughters. There is a climax in every career of crime, at which Providence intervenes the stay ing hand. He will permit the cri minal to despoil so far, and then visit meeds of purnishment. He has done so with Bennett. Would that it had been done earlier. The point to this article is to hold Bennett np as a specimen of the tradncers of Maj. Varda man. He was of the heart, ami talent to do the work which oth ers could encourage to be done, but shrunk from doing themselv es. Sanction and execution of an ignoble deed are scarcely separat !?d by lines of demarkation in Ithe analysis of wrong. The abet- Ai- . 1 it. . 1 ut uuii nit: titruiur rr mumi by the same motives and are e jually amenablee at the bar of justice. For a job, such as Ben lett was engaged to do, a migh ,y good price is generally exaet hJ. Who paid the price is a per inent question, and why should .ueh unholy war be waged upon 3-ne man s character is another. Why should the reputation of fames K. Vardaman be destroy ed, if he was not in some ones ?ay, and in whose way does the man stand ? Js it because he is opposed to the encroachments of eorporatins, trusts and predatory wealth; or is it because he fav ors fair elections and the preser vation of White Supremacy for ever by revision of the Federal "-Constitution? ' May the light of understand ing: enable the people to see the right of the questions in the pending eleection, and may they 'ote it for the preservation of truth and the good, not only of our grand old state, hut the whole of Dixie. NOT HEEDED. f Tt is currently whispered that attempts will "be made to get Private John Allen to stump this county in the interest of the Percy Alexander ticket. Of course that is but a wa3 to strengthen Percy Alexander, candidates for the 8tae Senate and the lower house. There might have been a thne when Private John Allen, could have led the people of this county that is when they . lieved him tc be their friend . but since he has alligned himself iith the candidates of the se rect caucus, his speeches in that behalf, would be like a red fla? flaunted in a mad bulls 'face. No, Mr. Allen is not needed in Monroe county to make the peo ple linh.

Some of the Percy-Alexander supj)orters say they will not vote for a candidate who is known t" be a Varrlaman man, and yet these same fellows advocate that no "lining up' be done on the legislative ticket. They are so blinded by zeal for their own candidate that they have failed to discover that their own deter mination to vote for only Percy Alexander candidates for the State Senate and the lower house in itself, is the emphatic "line up." Else they t:ike the Varda man men to be a lot of fools.

It would be a most contradict ioiiary condition. indeel, for. the people to instruct Percy or Alexander meji to go to the "legisdlature and elect Mr. Vartlaman to the V. S. Senate.
