Five tab,espoontuls Of milk and
one cup of granulated sugar will make
an excellent frosting If Favored with
lemon or vanilla, boiled five minutes
and then beaten hard until it is both
stiff and cool enough to spread on the
cake. The great advantage of this
frosting is that it is economical and
that it can be cut as soon as thor
oughly cold. 1t is very nice with
chocolate or cocoanut stirred in it, and
at this season, when eggs are apt to
be stale, is preferable to the old

The Republican State Convention
to appoint delegates to the Republic
can National convention met in Jack
son last Wednesday, about l50colorcd
and % white delegates being present.
John Il. Lynch called the convention
to order and made bitter partisan
speech, attacking both the State and
National administration in strong
language, charging the latter with be-
ing weak and corrupt, and saying
that the candidate for President
should be man who would see that
both the ballots of the people and
American industries are protected.
EX-Auditor w. II. Gibbs, who was
Chairman of the Convention, also
made bitter partisan speech in the
track of Lynch.
The delegates to the National Con
venton from the State at large are as
follows: John Il. Lynch of Adams,
James Hill and John McGill of Kinds,
and T. W. Stringcr, of Warren. The
alternates are: f. p. Hill, II. II. Har-
vcy (colorcd), and Chas. ERoSenbaum
(whitc). The congressional district
delegates are as follows: First dis
trict, 6. c. Chandler and -. w. Lee ;

The. Lowry Pass Redidivus.

\ few papers in this State made
haste to publish Mr.. Dunn's denial of
any issuance of pass to Governor
Lowry, but when Conductor McCut-
ChcOn and other parties III the posi-
ton 20 know absolutely contladicted
this statement of the general manager,
these papers contained not even a
shadow of allusion to it in their col
umns.
Now, once more, Mr.. Jeffreys, the
ex-general manager of the road, has
come forward and said that Governor
Lowry did hold such pass after his
approval of the law forbidding the
holding of all passes by State officials,
but these papers still neglect
to publish this statement.
We suppose it is a journals own
business to select what news it pub
fishes, but when it undertakes to dis
cuss a mooted matter it ought, in COM
mon fairness, to give the facts of both
sides. The fact that these Lowry pa
pers do not publish these statements
of Jeffreys and McCutcheon, shows
how unfairly they are accustomed to
ges against Lowry, shows how utterly
unreliable they are i'll regard to his
administration.
A championcy that depends upon
the suppression of facts is at once a
condemnation and dishonesty, and
yet this is the only champi0ncy that
Lowry can standardization Demo

n State Democratic conservative Con-

of Representative, or such other place
as may hereafter be selected, at II
o'clock W., on Wednesday, the % day
of May. 1888, for the purpose of select
ing delegates to the National Demo
cratic Convention which meets at the
city of st. Louis. Mo-, on the 9th day
of June next, and to appoint PrcSi-
dental Electors and to transact such
other business as may come before it..
Each county will he entitled to rep
rcsentation in thcrConvcntion, double
that to which it is entitled in the
lower branch of the Legislature; UNI
less otherwise determined by the
Convention.
1t is suggested by the Committee
that the several counties hold their
Democratic Mass Meetings or Delegate
Conventions, as the case may he, to
select delegates to the State conven-
ton, on Saturday, May 18th, and
where it has been customary Tor may
be dcsirablc), to hold Beat or Precinct
Meetings to select delegates to the
County Conventions, that these be
held on Saturday, May 18th.
1t is particularly desired and recon-
mended that in counties that may be
without party organizations, Il full and
complete organization beat once effect
ed, and that each county he fully rep
resented in the State Convention.

will be splendid opportunity to adj

The sanity Natchez Democrat
LOwry organ) makes the following
acknowledgment of the good done by
the anti-administration press and re-
formers of Mississippi, which is more
than we expected from such a source:
The close scrutiny made by the dis
eontented element into the affairs of
Mississippi officials while it had the
effect of showing our State officers all
honest and faithful to their trusts,
will also make them careful about any
use of the States funds but that
which is authorized by law. These
examinations are useful and in Demo
cratic States will preserve the party
from the effects always produced by
dishonest administration.
