COMMITTEE.

| call your attention to the fact
that another campaign is upon US,
and it becomes our duty to take
part in the election of a Chief
Executive to serve the people of
this country during the ensuing
four years.
The obligation which every
patriotic citizen owes to his State
and himself should prompt, him to
appropriate a suficiency Of his
time to secure the success OF that
political party which lnsures the
greatest amount of good to the
greatest number, and elect 10
Office those who In his candid and /
sober judgment will best subserve
the common interest of all in this |
great and growing country in
which we live.
A Republican form Of gov
ernment is government of
the people, for the people by the
people, and no. more inspiring
spectacle can be presented than
that of the citizen earnestly and
honestly engaged IN sincere
effort to do that which will be
promotiye cf the public good,
and secure men of honesty, ability
and ct u age o make aud admin :
ter the laws, and those who aid
in the election of the Democ,atlc
cand dates for President and Vice
President will thereby demon
strate that they appreciate the
great privileges which they enjoy
and the services Of faIik'ul public
servants.
IL addition to having at the
head of the Democratic ticket two
Of the ablcst and truest men upon
this continent to inspire con
fdence and enthusiasm, there are
some questions involved in the
canvass which ought to energize
and move every MlssissIppIau to
do what he can to perpstuate the
rower Of the Democratic party, q
party whose policy has always
been to make the burdens If gov
ernmenta as light as possible, exact
ing the smallest amount In thS
way ef taxatlan consistent will
the public welfare, and at th'
same time to secure to the weaker
exemption from such oppression
as the avarice Of combiued capita
might see proper to impose.
The people of this country arr
to-day enjoying a state Of content
nent and satisfaction which
undertake to say without fear 0
successful contradiction, woult
not be tkems should the Republi
can party again get control of th
affairs of the nation. Then lot u
lay aside whatever differences a
Democrats we may have ha
among ourselves IN the past upo
side issues aud as patriotic Mis-
sissippians remembering The man
wroDgs visited upon US and od
State by this party when in powe
and fall into nne and go to wor
for the success Of cur ticket, an
we will not only secure a rousln
majority at the ensuing electio
but will be united and ready *
action in the future.
1t is therfore hoped that tn
varleus County Executive Goa
mittees viii at once take steps

heretofore adopted by the Sta
Executive Committee, and NAL
their local organizations o
thorough as practicable, and p

the State Executive Committe
but Ihe Committees of their 7
spective Congressional Distrlc
and see to it that tho able al
efficient Democratic nominees +
Congress receive handsome m
jorites IN Districts which th'
shall represent.
The canviss Will be short and
Is desired that it be spirited Al

Won four years ago may be 81
phasized, and not lost on accou
Ct inactivity resulting from oy
confidence.
