COMING BACK INTO TIE RANKS!

Several months since we expressed our regret

high character, sound sense and thorough De

Taylor Electors, has written letter in which
he recedcs from his position in favor Of General
Taylor, and declines the honor Of Elector on
the Taylor Ticket. MIR. Nicholas letter will, We
presume, appear in few days. lie is the same
gentleman who proposed resolutions in our State
Senate in 1916. nominating General Taylor for
the Presidency"
We cannot doubt that the Delta Qndepend-

since, Gas far as our observation extends, the
contest will be a strictly patty one. The Demo
Gratis who were disposed, at the beginning, 10

an Independent candidate, have all, or nearly
all, fallen back into the ranks Of Ncir party
There is no ground, therefore, for apprehension
that the contest will turn on other than the re
gular issues between the parties"
This no party platform" is fast crumbling
into pieces. Even in Louisiana, where few
personal admirers of General Taylor came out
for him, their PRINCIPLES and their duty are fast
bringing them back to the old Democratic flag,
and Louisiana wHl 6e herself again. In the
