Editor Reporter:—Have been quite remiss, I know, but bad health must be my excuse, besides you asked for news, and there has not been so much as a wee on dit to chronicle. The farmers in this section as elsewhere are terribly behind hand with their crops, owing to long continued wet weather; but still the crops look in fair order and we may yet bo able to reap a good harvest, and smiles re place the looks of late gloom. What shall I say that would be at all interesting to your many readers I1 \\ hen one sits down to read they gen erally anticipate an intellectual feast, and every correspondent should aim to promulgate such idoas or sentiments as will prevent the reader from feeling that his or her time has been thrown away; they should strive to write only what will enlighten and broaden the minds and views of others to help to elevate one as it were, by the magic of the pen which we are told is mightier than the sword; but alas! few of us have the power to more than touch, and that very lightly, the senses. School has opsned again at Carters villo, under the auspices of one of Iuka’s fair daughters. Miss Alice Moore, whose gentlo sway has already endeared her to her young pupils. May her reign bo one of peace, mid the memories she carries away with her when her duties have ended, be onlv nnr*s. Health of neighborhood remarkably good, for which we can not be too thankful. Well. Mr. Editor, I fancy I can see tlie genial smiles which wreathed the faces of the “faithful.” when the news llew with lightning speed over the wires, that “our Grover” was nomi nated for the highest office in the gift of the people. Oh! if the Democrats will only bo true to themselves, and their country, and all pull together, victory wiU be obliged to perch on our banmei-s in November. The people, even the great uneducated mass, has now had an object lesson in High Pro tective Tariff, in the terrible riot in Homestead, Pa., and I believe it will set the tide CleveWflft ward^Rid I hope so from my^eart, and mow, if ever, every Democrat should be up and do ing, to heipk wrest that grand and mighty nation from under the iron heel of despotism that is fast coiling its deadly folds around us, and tramp ling the rights of free born citizens in the dust, teach them this tail that we wish no McKinley bill , no high pro tection, if it means locking out honest workman, slyly bringing armed forces under false pretences to our doors, and by the thundering of cannon proclaim that the laboring class must yield to the superior strength of capital. When good honest blood must flow, when wives are widowed and children ren dered orphans, thus trying to force on the wage worker a high protective tariff which means in the case of the many a battle cry of “down with the wages” down with the unions, then I suy, it’s time every honest man, every iiinoiugeiii, unuKur in mo ianu snouia put his shoulder to the wheel, and work ere the hideous wolf finds your own door. Only shilly shally now, and let the monster have another four years to run riot in our country, and what can we promise ourselves. Where now we are prospering, then will be a scene of anarchy and wide spread woe. Do you think for one moment our effi cient Sheriff could so far have forgot ton hie oath of office, as did the sher iff. who issued orders to arm and bring to Homestead the Pinkertons, to force peaceful law abiding workmen to yield to Baron Carnigie’s demands, I and not allow them the right even of an audience whereby they might ar rive at some clear understanding, thus preventing the loss of many valuable lives, and throwing a city into the tur moil. fear and danger which is always engendered where an armed mob may be? Ah! no, he would most assuredly have looked closer into the merits of the case, before issuing orders which 1 would necessitate the shedding of blood, the taking of bread from the mouths of women and children. I I wish every section was blessed with J such whole souled sheriff, in fact naught but what is good can be said of any of our officers; they are the right men in the right place, and if the voters of the country will onlv do as well in the coming election, we'll have i another good man in the rightopluce. ! So every Democrat list to the sound ' of the tocsin, lift up your banners and rally every one to the standard, and God will give you the victory. More , anon. Mus. E. L. M. £. Mi 2 *■ _ 1UKA, MISS.

Being nothing more nc r less than grand larceny, licensed bv the government, it is not strange that in its dying hours it should be defend ed oniy by falsehoods. The Rspubli can press has, during the last week or two, unblushingly circulated the re port that Senator Carlisle’ name was signed to a committee report which shorfed that the McKinley bill bad low ered prices and advanced wages. Now it turns out that the republican papers which have been 'disseminating this misinformation have been guilty cf deliberately distorting the facts. Mr. Carlisle lias conclusively given the lie to the statement in the speech which he delivered in the Senate the oth< r day. In this speech he admitted that since the McKinley bill had gone into effect there had been an advance o wages, but on investigation he had discovered that the advance had been for the most part in the wages paid b/ the unprofected industries, and th; V there had been a decline in the wages paid by the protected Industries. Tha Albany Journal has been one of the papers that have spread the report the report about Senator Carlisle's vindication of the McKiuley bill. These papers have now been caught in the act of deliberate mendacity They have lumped the wages of the country, and given the McKinley bill the credit for tho advance in wages in the un protected inustries This is a new claim. Formerly th j pn tectionist were content to assert that protection raised the wages of those who wore engaged in protected industries. Now they virtually assert that the McKin ley bill i nises the wages even of those who enjoy none of the operations of protection. Absurdity and mandacijy could not much further go. —Appeal* Avalanche. Otrests, mi Trade-Marks obtitasd, sad « ra nt bn ill res cood acted for Moocsstc Vic*. . remote from Wechbirtoa.
