perhaps, controlled by outside in
iiuencss. To any man who has had
tire advantages OF q common school edu'
ca ion, the word executive" conveys
but one meaning, viz: A person or per-
sons intrusted with the execution OF q
certain purpose, or OF the laws Of a
country. The President Of the United
States is the executive Of the republic,
AID the governor Of State is the execu-
tive thereof. Suppose either were to pass
3 resolution, what would be- its binding
force? The Democratic executive COM
mittee, like the Presidency or the gov
ernorship, is only executive in its fune-
tons; lit lie, therefore, improper for it
to pass resolutions In regard to the COM
plexion or character Of the delegates to
the Democratic convention, or to legis-
late in any way. 1t is charged only with
the duty Of calling convention Of the
party, naming the day for its sssemb-
ling,snd stating the number of delegates
to which each ward is entitled, and
when the nominations have been made
by the convention Of laboring in honest
and consistent ways to secure party sue
cess. The passage Of resolutions, or q
platform, belongs to a convention Of the
party only. II there are members Of
the Democratic executive committee of
the city Of Memphis who believe other
wise, they should as honest men say 80
and resign. This. is plain speech, but it
is forced from US by the publication of a
resolution unheard of and unparalleled
in the history Of the Democratic party.

the support Of white and black, OF all par.
ties and religious denominations. This
is not the question. It IL simply this
Has an executive committee, appointed
by Democratic mass meeting to nomi-
nate q Democratic candidate for mayor,
any right to propose co-opeation with
other parties? The committee was ap-
pointed simply to obey the behests OF
Democrats, to do the work ordered by
a Democratic msss-meetiDg, and any
alliance it may propose with Metbodists,
Baptists, Catholics, Conservatives, Lib
erals or moderate Republicans is unsu-
thorizsd and unwaTranted. The AP.

THE MISSISSIPPI sENAroRsHrp.

We publish to-day three letters from
prominent citizens of Mississippi urging
certain gentlemen for the position OF
United States senator soon TO be vacated
by Senator AlcorD. For such letters
the APPEAL will always find place,
but it is unswervingly committed to l..
@, G. Lamar for the position, believing
that he is the choice of the Democracy
Of the State and will be most acceptable
to the Democracy out Of it. To Mr.. La
mar more than to any other do Missis-
sippians owe the great victory that has
relieved them of the burden of Radical
ism. 1t was his conservative course in
congress that turned the current of north
ern public opinion toward the
State cursed by carpetbaggers in
its worst form, and made it possible
for the Democracy Of Mississippi
to. accomplish without government
interference their purpose Of free
dom from an odious tyranny. This must
not be forgotten. Nay, it must be re-
paid by the only promotion within reach
of the party. Lamar should be elected
to fill Alcorn's place.

THE FRUITS OF THAT RESOLUTION.
The Ledger, Of yesterday evening,

says:
Several well-known Simon-pure and un-
sdulterated Radicals and supporters ofMayor
League are attempting to make some combi-
nation TO get themselves or their friends
elected as delegates from the different wards
to the Democratic and Conservative conyen-
ton, 10 be held in this city, in order TO create
a disturbance and cause dissatisfaction, or
else nominate a weak and objectionable man
Tor The mayoralty.
That's true, and if the suggestion of
the Democratic executive committee be
adopted, Mayor League can fill the con-
vention with his friends, elected by
Liberals who would be allowed to vote.
The condition Of affairs in this city is
full Of deadly peril. Our public debt is
rapidly reaching limits which will ne
cessitste either reputation or q taxation
which will confiscate property and
paralyZe business. Wastefulness, reck.
lessness and dishonesty few years ago
on the part Of officials, and apathy and
negligence on the part of Taxpayers,
have brought us to this condition.
Nothing is palmer than that a con-
tinuance in the came way for two years
longer will bankrupt the city. The
Rae zeal administration of John League
has failed to afford relief. The Demo-
cratic party proposes trying its hand, to
put some check to abuses. 1t therefore
earnestly calls upon Democrats, Conser.
NATIVES, Republicans, and even Radi.
Gals for aid; but the mass-meeting held
at the Greenlaw Operahouse has
not authorized any one to invite
Republicans or Radicals into
our councils, or to aid in the election OF
Democrats as delegates to Democratic
