reason for this attack and the abuse of
Senator Wallace with which the guerrilla
press now teens is that his friends seem
likely to be in majority in the state
convention"
1t will not do to stigmatize as the
guerrilla press the large nun.ber:of repu-
table Democratic newspapers of Penn
sylvania which have called upon Senator
Wallace to explain and justify his re-
markable action in regard to these ap-
pointments. The facts US they now
appear seem to show that Senator Wal
lace, if anybody, is playing the part of a
guerrilla. His standing in the regular
Democratic army is questioned, and
it would seem that he proposes
to vindicate it by showing his control
over the coming Democratic con-
ventiOn. We trust that he has made
no such boast. 1t is an improper one.
The Democratic party of the state is tired
of being claimed as the property of any
man and of being called upon, year after
year, to settle the claims of contending
leaders seeking to control it. Senator
Wallace as the leader of "the Wallace
party" has been persistent in his efforts to
control our state conventions. We hope
that the next one will teach him and all

ceived the reporter with impressive dig

gaining rapidly on lost time. Those who

Int unfortunately most of them who plant

renders the prospect less favorable, Judging
from the present stand point.
Rev. Mr. Nunnaly, of Rome, preached
two very interesting sermons at the Baptist
church last Sabbath to a large audience. Ills

broken which detracts from the beauty and

No change in the time of the regular
meetings of the convention, 50 tar as we

thc matter is one in which all reasonable
minded men can with little or no difficulty
solve for themselves without the aid of your

the actual demonstration of the law in local
itie, where it is in working order. In the
District of Columbia the local affairs OF
which are regulated by the Congress OF the
United States there are no fences, and those
who at first denounced it in strongest terms
are now its most ablest and most strenuous
supporters. An effort is being made by the
opposition in circulating reports, one OF
which is that land owners will be taxed to
nlarp a fence around the county, the Orlgl-
nator of which doubtless owns a yearlIne
