that the was at the tine a married woman, riding
at nifht with an unmarriod man, in a dark, re-

ia clear that these two negroes could not have
been guilty of tbe alleged aaaault.
"According to teatimony before ua, the alleged
aaaault could not have occured later than 9:JO
o'clock on tbe night of April 13, and theae two
men, Duncan and Coker, were at work on that
night and did not leave their work earlier than
10 o'clock, and thin aaaault ia allaged to have
taken place at leaat a mile from the place where
they were at work. For these reaaons we be-
lieve the two negroea, Duncan and Coker, innocent
of such crime."
Governor Polk snd tbe authorities at Spring*

In his card of withdrawal, Monta J. Moore han
given bin endorsement and endeavored to throw
his strength to Campbell, and given good and
valid reasons for so doing. Mr. Moore baa ac*
quitted bimaelf very creditably in tbe race for
governor, and haa made a more digoified canvass
and given tbe people more good sound logic than
any candidate who has yet been in this county.
We stated at first that we feared he had no chance
for election, and now that he has withdrawn he
has done so gracefully, and in endorsing tbe (Cast
Texaa candidate baa abowed that be atill haa tbe
good of tbe cauae at heart. Now if Colquitt will
withdraw from tbe race it can be made a fight to
the finiab between tbe three atrong men in tbe
race. We atill predict that tbe candidatea will go
into tbe convention about like tbia: Bel', Camp*
bell, Brooke, Colquitt. How tbey will come oi(t
