who has been living for nearly

he was plying his trade. The charge
against him is that about two years
ago he, with two accomplices, murder
ed a mail-carrier in Arkansas and rob
bed the mail-bags. The three then fled
the State. Officers have been on their
paths 4vek eej&ejfjonn4s'iiiQ of
their crime, and about two wee"ks ago
Cooper's accomplices were arrested.
Marshal Barnes has had Cooper shad
owed for more than a year, and being
at last ready to secure his game, he set
off for the place where he knew he
would Md 1hi. " Pa&rifig tlfTQHgh Char

came- down ihepartlnbvirVAse
ville Railroad the same afternoon, and
left with him for the South via the Air
Line Railroad yesterday morning.
A sad feature in connection with the
arrest is that the murderer left behind
him young.wife andi two httle child
ren. While living in Arkansas he was
married "to "a voune : eirlr: 'Choctaw
; half-breed and she, will their, children,
has accompanied Cooper in all his wan
derings. When he was taken from her
at Hendersonville she saw him for per-
strangers in a strange land.
The evidence against the three men
accused is said to oe conclusive, and it
is 6aid further that ,Cooper is charged
with another murder in Arkansas, pre
vious to that of the mail-rider.

they are fair ones, and not seek to tie
him down with official chains. I will
say to "XXX," and all citizens that I
am no candidate for any office. I will
not allow my name to be used as a can

have known me best during my resi

heard me express myself, know that I
hold in very low estimate that man or
class of men who, coming unknown to
communities, seek, as soon as they are
warmed a little, to secure public office
through the votes of the mob.
I feel indeed thankful for the com
pliments given, and intended to be
given, by those who have regarded me
enough to notice me through your
columns.
I will ask this : If the people see that
any benehts are to accrue from any
well directed effort to secure the true
up-building of the city and country, and
will give it a lull support, I shall be re
