Show Nee the Cloven Foot. Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 28. The Pros publishes pub-lishes a scurrilous anonymous letter, which has been sent to negroes in Screven county who voted the Democratic ticket at the state election, which threatens them with lynching lynch-ing if they vote the Democratic ticket this fall. The Screven county Democratic com-mittee com-mittee offered a reward of $150 for information informa-tion which shall lead to the conviction of the author. Democrats declare that the negroes shall be protected in their life and property whatever ticket they vote. These threats have convinced the negro that the Populists are their enemies, and they are deserting the third party. |
