Bring Them Back.
Nashville American.

A>dSuNlIb huNiiNuu'
Bring them back into the fold,
Democrats. Now is he time. You
have won a grand victory, and
there is no defeat along the route
TO complete prosperity. Go out
upon The highways and upon the
hog paths and hunt them up. Then
talk kindly and with reason. We
want back a lot of those misguided
and misled voters of ire country
WHO voted the Third party ticket.
The reason we want them is not
one of fear, but of love. They are
our sort of people. In war times
they camped and fought with us.
They made great sacrifices tor a
dear cause and they fought as he
roes fight. In reconstruction times
too, they stood shoulder to should
er with Us. The issue of the war
had been lost, but peace, overcast
as it so long was by the dark clouds
Of oppression and hatred, had lis
victory. They helped to win that
victory. All the time they stood
squarely by the side OF good gov,
ernmeni and Southern manhood.
They must not desert, now that
the sunshine we have so long wait
ed for has come teeming over the
mountains. They wandered and
.trayed at a critical time. but they
really knew not what they did.
Their judgments did not have the
sane appeal made TO them as did
their prejudices. Bring them back
| We have no hard feelings towards
them. This government is theirs
just as much as il is anybody's
and Democracy will see TO II lha
of all the blessings o come the,
gel their share. We want no pro
scriplion. A few sconnlrels, those
whom they trusted and by WHOM
they were BETRAYED jnst as hai
first been betrayed the Democrat
ic party, should be in the future
| kept out forever from our house
hold. Their feet shall no longeI
be propped against our manlelS
and their legs shall never agall
eros beneath our mahogany. Bn
the others, we want 10 come back
There shall be no penance requir
ed, no criticism indulged III, nc
questions asked.
Come on back.

All Pascagou,a, your banks entce me,
From my work, aud from my books;
Aud, Pascagoula, you, too, remend me

To-day leave you, Pascagoula,
To distant lands unknown, 90;
But not without tender message
To my love whose name yon know.
Sweet bay, our love vows you did wit
ness,
And our quarrel think you heard;
For all was silent, save in voices in an-
ger,
Not daring to twittcr, even bird.
If you had been like the ripping Danube
That willingly gave fair Undine a
home;
| (When Hulbrand grew weary and want
ed another,l
| think then I'd have been eager to
come.
He said was false and with him flirting
But, fe, man,llke, he sought an ex
cuSe
For not fulfilling the VOWS he plightcd.
And so told him but what was tn,
use
Don't get weary, loved Pascagoula,
Ny paint is old, but still it's new ;
OH you're not impatient at my Story,
see by the smile on your surface blue
When l am gone, dear Pascasoula,
Should he ever linger again on you
shore,
Tell him his Mayme loves no other,
Than the one "to be true to-" she vow

Tell hm, tell him my Pascagonla.1
That all my heart belongs to him;
And now, au rcvoir, best Pascagoula,
For the daylight is waxing dim.

Appeal-Ayalanchc.
Hon. John NJ. Allen stepped
forth with a sad counlenance, ap.
propriate TO The occasion and The
sad duty devolving upon him.
With a rebate visage, he began de.
liberaIely. The reaGer may IN
sert the ''deafening applause" add
libi,um:
"ln arising to conduct these sad
aud solemn ceremonies, must be-
gin by relating one of the most APP
propriate funeral orallons l ever
heard for an occasion Of. this kind.
1t was a sermon by my old colned
friend, Ephram Belts, when Ge
said: My brethren and sisters, we
have met here to-day 10 pay our
last sad respects to the departed.
Some says he was a good man and
some says he was bad man.
Where he Is gone We can't tell.
But in our grief we have one con-
solalion-Ihank God we know he
Is dead!
My friends l must stop in the
midst of these sad ceremonies to
answer one sad question that was
asked by my friend, Mr.. Richard.
son. lie wants TO know where are
the people going who are deserving
the Democratic party in The South.
If this big coffin here on the STAGE
was turned around to the audience
so you could read The letters on
that side, the question would be
answered. On the other side it
reads Hell and Vermont
"Ihis sad death reminds me OF
an incident that occurred in con.
nectlon with funeral. An Irish
man was driving the hearse, and
on the way to the cemetery he
was met by stranger, who stopp-
ed him and remarked:
"My friend, | see that you have
had death in your town!"
"Yes SIR"
"What complaint Y
'No complaint at all, sir. 1t
gave general satisfaction"
And so it is with the death of
the Republican party. | have
never before seen any occurrence
in my life that seemed to give such
general satisfaction. The question
now is, who did il! l see Ben
Harrison says that Bill Mckinley
did it. | presume Tat Bill says
Ben did. Now, l will admit to
you, ladies and gentlemen, and ]
g say that Josiah Patterson here
and me did it noslly-with the
help Of the Memphis press, the
, people of this country and the AL
, mighty, We did it.
/ "But what does the victory
mean! 1t means there will be no
more billion dollar Congress, nc
more sales of cabinet positions for
money with which to debauch the
American people; it means that
The American people cannot be
bought or bullied; it means lha,
so long as the mass of the popula.

THE CIRCUIT RIDERS.
A COUNTRY PREACHERS EXPERIENCES
FIFTY YEARS AGO.
| Syracuse STANDARD.

Syracuse STANDARD.
There is no period in my minis
lerial life, and | have been sixty
one years in the service, that re-
loices my recollection as does that
period of iteneracy, during my
first years in the work, when | sal
in the saddle of The circnlt-rider,"
said The Rev. James Erwin, d. ID.
For many years Mr.. Erwin has
been among the foremost IN Meth
odism in his State. He began his
career as a minister of the gospel
at fifteen years Of age. and five
wears later he was assigned to a
circuit. Churches were few and
TAR between then. and the mem
bers of the Methodist ministry
who secured regular station were
considered particularly fortunate.
Mr.. Erwin's frs, charge after leav-
ing the saddle was the first Meth
odist church OF This city, in 1915.
"Our ministers of TO day would
be i'll fitted TO endure the fatigue
and hardships which we were call
ed upon to endure in those days."
said he. "Our circuits were often
four hundred and five hundred
. miles long, and il took us a month
to get around the circuit, preach
ing sermon every day in the
wear, and three sermons on Sun
day. Our sermons were greatest
and broadesi when measured
engthwise. Our plan for the cir
cult called for tlirty.elght SCI
mons, and this, of course, nccessi
ta,ed much repetition. News trav-
eled slowly in those days and we
were not afraid of criticism. Some
times three sermons were the only
stock taken for whole months
Journey, but they were added unto
at every place and modified and
made better as we went along
We had a wonderful faculty OF Sc
leciing texts for our sermons. The
same sermon was preached from
many texts. A sermon could b'
improved by repetition. We wer'
| continually in the saddle from on
months end to the other, eXcep
when we stopped TO refresh our

@ New York has oscillated Impair

parties for twenty.eight years.
The vic,ors of one Presidential
election have been overlhrown in
the succeeding one; the defeated
of one contest have triumphed
four years later. The result OF
this years battle strengthens and
cliDches the sanguine eXpec, atoms
Of the Republicans that they will

haps they will, and certainly nc
one should begudge them, in Tie
heyday of a glorious Democratic
victory, such harmless consolation
as they extract from this reassur'
