never used THE APPEAL for personal mo-
tves or purposes, and even in the matter
oil the Memphis postofiice refused to per-
init it's use in his favor. The APPEAL
challenges the Democrat or any one
else to cite an instance where
this rule of his life has been
broken by Mr.. Heating" Senator Harris
adopts rather grovelling method OF reply
to n legitimate criticism OF his public
record, when he defends himself by
charging unworthy personal motives to his
opponents. The resort TO such reply is
more OF a confession OF weakness than a
proof OF conscious strength. 1t is mis-
take, as the Chattanooga Times suggests,
for Senator Harris to suppose that all OPP

OF personal injury, or grows out Of his way
OF distributing spoils.

Memphis scimitar Of yesterday.
The senseless and bitter fight being made
by the Nashville Democrat on Col. J. M.
Heating, OF the APPEAL, because he does
not indorse the candidacy of Senator Har-
ris, is beneath the dignity Of great news
paper like the Democrat, and shows its edi-
tor devoid Of ordinary journalistic cour-
tesy. Here, where he is best known,
people do not regard the editorof The Ap-
PEAL as a "soured and disappointed office
seeker, but rather as a man who has
given his time and talents to the interests
OF the Democratic party, and one who has
devoted the best years of his life to writing
little men up into big ones.

lEOn tlt iONluHtOn lfaler.
Senator Harris thinks The APPEAL is
opposed to him because he did no, give
Col. Heating the Memphis postonice. Col.
Heating denies that hisopposition is based
on any such ground. How does the SEN
ator account for the opposition to him Of
other Democratic papers in the State7
There are four Democratic papers in Mem
phis, the home of the senator and only
one IN supporting him. There are three
Democratic papers in Nashville, and
only one Of them, and possibly none,
are supporting him. and there are quite
number OF other Democratic papers in
the state, the editors oi which never asked
the senator for an Office, who are opposed
10 him. The senator is certainly OF his
base when he makes such charge.
The senator in January, 1898, on the
night Of the day OF his reelection 90 the
Senate, made speech nj the Maxwell
house, In Nashville, in which he said:
To Represent such y state 10 retain the conh.
