“The Antis have carried the
county by the small majority of

Jury finds bills of indictment for
illegal voting the prohibitionists
will nut contest tho election, if
there were any pros that violated
the law, which we admit was
done if there was any illegal
voting, we are-in favor of JthGm
suffering the full penalty of the

Now, the Star has a better
opinion of its prohibition friends

believe, and it seriously doubts if
there* was any illegal voting done

more guilty than their opponents.

— Lancaster Herald.
If the colored person will stick
right c’ose to that patch, or some
Othor patch where there is work,
he will have little trouble with
his white neighbors. Tho curse
of the hour is lazinese. Loafing
negroes as well as loafing white
people compose the class which is
hunted and lynched. It is rather
a, remarkable thing that, in nine
in ten cases, where the worst of
grimes has been committed, it
was committed by men who were
roafing through the country.
The negroes themselves should
fnt an end to this. They alone

great anxiety to tbs' treasury and
