WUAT NEXTo

That the feeling against Mr.. Pope
in Putnam is strong admits no long
er of any denial. The next question
for consideration is, shall Pope men
be sent to the legislature? VIII
those who think Pope unfit to be
governor of Florida send Pope men
to Tallahassee that he may go to
W Washington? If he is unfit to be
governor, we do not want him i'll the
national senate, and both parties
should take care that no Pope men
are nominated for the senate or as
sembly. The republican convention
will meet in a few days, and then
the issue can be clearly seen. Will
the g. 0. p. use Pope, or viii Pope
swallow those who have endorsed
him?

The self-starving case of Kate, daugh-
ter of George Smusley, of Fort Plain,
battles the medical profession Her ply
stefan, DR. William Zolen, says that she
is a living skeleton, yet so bloated that
she actually weighs more than three
months ago. Her parents and physi-
clans have begged in vain to get her to try
and hold something on her stomach, but
she positively refuses to swallow any
thing. only occasionally taking slight
quaffs of water in her mouth, which is
quickly elected without being allowed to
enter the stomach. The girl has taken
10 food for 1862 days up to noon to-day,
and no water or liquid in her stomach in
90 days. She is 20 years of age. and
was, previous to her sickness, progresses
ing and q general favorite She was
taken i'll twenty-three months ago with
spinal disease. Every effort was made to
cure her, but she finally gave up hope
and adopted the slow method of suicide
by starvation. She suffers great pain,

motion from one side Of the bed to the

We were authorized by the
Gainesville Bee TO get from DIR. De-
Witt the names of those present at
the celebrated DREW conference "
The Bee promised to give the names,
but shuffied off on the doctor duty
that has never been performed. We
we're promised those names; we have
denied that any such conference was
held, and now both the Bee and the
doctor are silent. We state this for
the benefit of the Pope organ which
is more than a month behind.

REFORM.

Let it be remembered that in our
fight with Pope we have never de-
MED that we needed reform. But
to expect anything in that direction
from Pope, would be stretch of
faith too great for one possessed of
reason. Who will furnish the votes
for Pope? The republicans. Who
will dictate the policy of the admin
istration in case Pope is elected !?
The republicans. What reforms are
more especially needed in the state
to-day That of those abuses left
as a legacy from the republican rule.
Can we hope forreform from republi-
can leaders? And Pope would be
more dangerous than our old enc
mics, because in his election the
worst elements of the party alone
have taken part. Therefore to these
he must look for support, to these
he must 90 for his officers, to them
will be left the dictation of his
course. Realizing these facts, the
better elements of the republican
party view his course from afar off :;

A QUESTION /!
enemy.

Judge Hilton, Of Tallahassee, Of
ten speaks words which are like cap
pies of gold" to some of us. In Civ
ing little lecture on "The Lie as a
Weapon" he introduces ethics into
a political campaign with marked
effect, despite the war cries and dust
raised by the gathering clans who
throng to the battle.
Once upon time, says the Econ
omist, Horace Greeley and VIM. O.
Bryant were at issue ON a question
which involved a want of veracity,
so are now Gen. Barnes and Dr.
Maxwell; 50 now are r. c. Long
and Frank Pope. "Yet these are
all honorable men," But in bring
ing our name into the category
coupled with that of J +. AIexan-
der, Judge Hilton does what posi-
bly, he would not have done in the
light Of later developments. The
charges made by us were based on
proofs which we distinctly stated to
Mr.. Pope and Mr.. Hind, the parties
directly interested. Mr.. Hind re-
peated a conversation in the pres
ence of Mr.. Pope which was salts
factory to us, and which we pub
Iished. Mr.. Hind acknowledged that
the differences drawn by us were
clearly deducible from his language
and letter Therefore Mr. Alexan-
der opposed only the weight of his
character in the negative to that of
ours. We then showed, and we
think conclusively, that Mr.. Alexan-
der is, in no sense of the word, an
''honorable man." and therefore we
have nothing more to DO with him,
his character or his statements.
While we hold that no man can be
disgraced save by his own act, it is
incumbent upon all to take such
steps for the preservation of fair
fame that strangers be not COMPEL
ed to believe a false imputation for
want of contradiction, The state
ment of TuE News was denied by
the Enterprise Herald in such man
ner as to bring the personal standing
of the two editors into the discus
sion of public question. There
fore we have gone to Mr. AIexan
der's home, and have given him the
standing we found waiting him
there. In doing this we give names
and circumstances, and believe VIC
are only performing duty to that
public opinion which decides the
last appeal Until Mr. Alexandor's
character is rehabilitatcd we cannot
discuss the matter further in oul
columns.

often from them we hear the sounds
OF condemnation. The unblushing
attempt to reap the fruits of a bat
tie between the lion and the bear
has been again made by the fox, but
not with success IS yet. Neither of
the contending parties has lost its
reason, or will consent to have the
sly fox walk unchallenged from the
arena.
The same issue was attempted be-
fore by better and ADLER man than
Pope. He failed as signally as Pope
will do. 1t only remains for the
democracy to profit by the attacks
Of its enemies and, for self-prcserva-
ton, draw closer the bonds of union
which alone can bring TO naught the
assault from without. The voice
of reform should be heard among
ourselves silyer-clear and command
ing; every good organization is
ready to learn wisdom from expert
ence, but no democrat deserts his
rarty banner in the face of a foe
Strike to the ground the supporter
of corruption among us; but show
an unbroken front to the common
enemy.

About sixty million copies of THE SUN have
gone out of our establishment during the past
twelve months.
If you were to paste end to end all the col
nuins of all THE SUN printed aud sold last year

But THE SUN is written for the inhabitants
OF the earth; this same strip of intelligence

forded the human race thirteen thousand years
Of steady reading, night aud day.

consequences, which gets at the facts no mat
ter how much the process costs which presents
the news all over the world without waste of

honest government, and which therefore be-
heves that the Republican party must go, and
must go in this coming year of our Lord. 1851
