TILDEN AND HENDRICKS.

This ticket is doubly representative
1t reflects the popular Will, and expresses
the central and absorbing ideas of the
-RETRENCHMEST AND REFORM.
AND THE SUPREMACY OF CIVIL AUTHOR
GTY. This is what the nomination of
Tilden means, and it is what the nominal
ton Of Hendricks imports. Each is a
tower of strength, and the union of the
two will sweep the country. Mississippi
Is in the Democratic column. She must
be kept there and carried for the ticket
To this end let the work of organization
begin early and be made effective. The
Northern States, having their right of local
sell-government assured, can stand any
sort Of a National Administration, but a
Republican victory will mean the re-
handing of all the Southern States TO
carpet-bag rule, if the power and pa
tronage of the Federal government can
effect that end. Its life and death strug-
gle for your liberties, men of Mississippi,
''Raly round the flag" 1t is in the
| keeping Of tried and true men.

NAsHINGroS CRY, June y, 1916
EDS. CLARION At this writing the ST.
Louis Convention has nor made lis nomina-
tons, but the utmost confidence prevails in
the wisdom and sound Judgment OF those
who Lave been delegated 10 select suitable
standard bearers in the coming contest to
represent the great princp plies OF reform aud
national progress. which all admit are now
involved, and which 80 absolutely depend
upon the result.
1t has been sail that the Republican
nomination of Hayes an-. Wheeler was a
very cunning thin@--a wary contriyance 10
catch the popular breez land Of whom it
mil ht We'll be asked: What have they done
To command the support of th'ir country
men and To entit!e them to such lofty ele-
walton? To which the fitting response
would seem To he: III they have not done
much good, they have not done any harm >
The question Will also arise whether they
have not been selected rs the cham ions OF
the great corruptioniSJs, whose msrue has
spread desolatien and ruin over the land,
whose chicanery has misu.anagcd the
'Freedman's Bank, established the Credit
Mobiier. the back pay-grlb, and similar
contrivanceS, to injure and delraud the p, o
ple?" Whose policy it has been To put in
| high positions such men as Belknap. and
| Babcock, and Dclano and Schenck. and
who would have !oi>tcd Blaine upon the
country but from fear OF that popular in
lignation which had been mauifesting it,
| self 80 strongly, and which it is t. be hopct
will continue until tie country is once more
| redeemed and disenthraIed.
The action OF the present Democrat,
Lower House OF Congress cannot fail TO I'm
press the public EanI with the imp ,rt.
ance and absolute necessity of change il
the Executive as there has been in par
in the Legislative branch OF the govern
ment.
The Investigations, which have been mad,
and which have unearthed such frauds ant
villanics as have been disclosed and Shuwl
to have been fostered by the party n pow r
unerringly indicate that reform and re
trenchment are Indispensable to nationa
advancement, and that ii is necessary tina
political honesty should be re-establshed
1t cannot bat afford satisfaction To tin
people OF the State to observe that the Rep
resentatives from sippi--Lamar, Mon
ey, Singleton, ana Hooker--have assume,
prominent and important positions in tn
Forty Fourth Congress. and have pursue,
that broad, liberal and statesmanlikc cour,,
which must be approved and appreciated b,
the country at large.

The young and thriving town Of Nc
Comb City, mainly through the efforts of
the INrELLIGENcER newspaper, and the
enterprise and indomtabIe energy of
Col. Nj. b. Hillyard, has become CEN
ire of attraction to visitors and settlers
from the North and West. Three years
ago the ground on which the place was
laid off was a wilderness but now it is
the seat of thriving and busy pQpula-
ton and gives more evidence of life and 6
future than any other town in the State.
The shops of the n. O., ST. l.. & G. r.
+. Co. give employment to large force.
The Southern Industrial works, of which
Mr.. G. Burgiund il the active business
manager, are located here, and it is also
the headquarters of the Mississippi Valley
Society, of which Gen. A. NJ. West is
President, with w. NJ. Francis, q live
man from Delaware, as General Manager
and Treasurer. Col. Frost, the we'll
known Manager-in-C Chief of the New
Orleans, St. Louis & Chicago Railroad +,
has his residence and headquarters here.
The town boasts the most enpacious, and
one of the best conducted hotels in tho
State, and it is constantly filed to over
flowing with guests. Several stores
have been opened within the past
year, Good schools are in operation,
and Rev. Mr.. Relyea has in comtempla-
ton, by the aid Of the Mississippi
Valley Company, the establishment CT
an educational institution, which will
indeed be an ornament to the State.
Last, but not least, the tall spires of two
commodious church buildings lately
finished lift themselves to the upper air,
and denote that the population, in the
activity of business pursuits, have not
neglected the more solemn duties of life.
We learn that other church buildings
will soon be in process Of construction.
We commenced this article not to expa-
tiate upon the marvellous growth of
McComb City, and the enlig htened public
spirit of her people, but simply to intro
duce the following encouragement from
the Intellgencer, of the arrival of several
visitors from the West within the past
week, snd to endorse the cordial " vel
come" expressed t9 them in behalf of our
entire people;
Rev. A. H. Widney, Limerick, Hi
nois Rev y. Edmiston, Henry, Ilin@:ols :
Mr.. j. T. Williams, Tiskilwa, Illinois !;
and II. w. Immke, Princeton, Illinois.
arrived in our town on " ednesday
morning They are here for the purpose
of looking up a location for colony
which is being organized in the Northwest
by Rev Mr. Widney, in the expectation
of settling in the South. Col. Hilly ard
is showing them about our county, and
we trust they viii be induced to locate
here.
They will find ample opportunity for
safe investment in lands, or in business
enterprises and will be assured not only
of liberation and protection in the exer-
else Of their rights and duties as citizens,
but of cordial welcome to the hearts and
homes of our people who will vie with each
other in rendering their sojourn pleasant,
and promoting the object of their visit,

GOVERNOR TELDEN.
How He Received the NeNS~ % AA'~
Nominations.

ALBANY, June Ex-Governor 1Iiden
passed the day at the executive mansion
surrounded by the members of has house
hold He received but few dispatches
from St. Louis, and sent none mere
This evening, when the Associated fress
bulletin dispatch, announcing SIMPLY.
''Tilden nominated on the second ballot,
was received, il was sent up to the eXecu-
tive mansion. There were present with
the governor Comptroller Robinson
State Engineer Van Buren,, and four or
five other friends Mr.. Newell took the
message and read it aloud to the govern
or. ''Is that so ?" he inquired IN the
calmest OF tones, with not even smile
on his countenance. subsequently, the
following dispatch was received:
ST.. LOUIS, June %. 1876.
TO Governor Samuel J. Tiiden:
| congratulate You on your enthusiastic
nomination Kentucky will most heartily
inaorse you with her forty thousand ma
jority. JOHN I. UNDERWOOD
Lieutenant-Governor of Kentucky.
This was also read to the governor, who
then exhibited signs of interest, aud m
quired if any one knew what the vote
was and what the platform contained.
No one present could answer either
question. The governor than drew four
| or five of those present about HIM, ana
| i'm tones scarcely above whisper sad :
81 can tell YOU what has been done.
| This nomination was not made by the
| leaders o. the party. 1t was the people
who made it; they want reform they
have wanted it long while, and IN
looking about they have become convinced
that it is to be found here" pointing TO
himself. "They want it, it is what they
are after. They are sick Of the corrup-
tons and NAL administration of their
affairs; they want change and one for
the better, a thorough reformation"
| Other dispatches were then received
conveying congratulations from all parts
of the country, in the midst of which the
governor maintained an almost stolid
imperturbabiity Dispatches from the
interior of the State announce that the
nomination Of Tilden was received with
marked satisfaction. At Buffalo, Auburn,
Poughkeepsie, Osweg0 and other cities
and towns, the nomination was honOred
by firing salutes, torch-lt ght professions
and displays Of fireworks. At Halfway,
New Jers y, public meeting was held
and a salute of one hundred guns was
fired.
A large number of citizens secured the
services of band of musicians, and al
twelve o'clock proceeded to the executive
mansion Governor Tilden received
them, shaking hands with large number
and receiving their congratulations
They then entered the grounds in front
of the mansion, when, at repeated calls,
Governor Tilden stepped out to the door
and said "Citizens of Albany, thank
you for this impromptu expression your
kind regard. During my residence in
your city the past two years | have re-
ceived many like demonstrations, and
assure you l feel grateful to you. Al
some other time l will be glad to give
you more formal reception, and now
will only say goodnight" The demon.
stration was very lively one.

The National Democratic Convention
recommended its abolition; and also rec
commended tothe Dem ocracy of the sever
al States that they instruct their delegates
to the next Convention as to their will on
this subject. The rule was not abolished
in the late Convention for the reason
that Tilden's friends were not willing to
display a desire to nominate their can
didate by violating the ''usages" of the
party, and the friends of the other can
didates were not without hope that the
rule would elect their favorite after II
had defeated the strongest man. As II
| has turned out, the rule did not affect
great Reformer had been determined
upon by the people and the delegates
| had nothing to Go but to register the de-
cree of their constituencies. When the
nomination was made. and expediency no
longer ntervene1 to prevent fair ex-
preston Of the opinion Gf the Couven-
ton, 1t adopted the resolution reIerred
to and instructed the National Execu-
tive Committee to solicit an expression
from the State Conventions when they
next appoint delegates. This was q
proper solution of the question under the
circumstances. The people will no doubt
demand the repeal of the rule inasmuch
as the causes which led to its adoption
originally, no longer exists, and what
ever benefits may be supposed to resul
from It's enforcement are more than coun
terbalanced by a measure clearly UNI
democratic, which operates to defeat thu
will of the majority and to place thu
majority at the mercy Of a factious mi
nority.

President j. J. Hubert in the chair, with
large attendance ofmembers and citizens.
After reading the minutes OF the preced-

feiyned satisfaction the domination of 5 am

A. Hendricks for Vice President. of the
United States and we pledge ourselves, in
dividually and collectively, to labor for
th"m increasingly fToE! now until the cleo
ton is over.
Resoleed That the platform OF principles
laid down by the Dem ocratic y ational Con-
vention at ST. Louis is in our Judgment the
embodiment OF the s0undest political theo-
ries which ering carried into practice can
not fail to bless the country with q season
of pros Eerity such az it has not enjoyed for
sixteen years.
ReScEUed, That with reform candidates
on a reform platform the Democratic party
deserves success and may confidently APP
zeal to patriots of every creed and of every
celor, to assert it in achieving Il victory
which shall remind lie Republicans of Wa
terloo and Sedan.
ReSotred, Thai returning thanks to our
colorec fellow-citiZens who last year so
cordially responded TO our appeals for sup
port we renew our pledges that under Til
den and Hendricks at the head of the Fed
erai Government they will receive the same
even-handed justice as citizens of the
United States that that they have received
as citizens of Mississippi under the rule Of
the Dem Qcratic- Conservative parry headed
by Governor Stone and Lieutenant Gov
ernor Sims in the year 1876.
After an appropriate address from ex-
Gov Brown, in support of the resolutions
and platform OF PRINCIPLES. enunciated by
