PLEDGES AND PERFORMANCE.

If the common people of this coun-
try who voted the Democratic ticket at
the last Presidential election, in the
honest faith that that party would car
ry out its pledges of reform, had
their votes to cast over again, in the
light of actual developments, it is
incredible to suppose they would re-
peat their awful blunder. Silver has
been stricken down and the country is
insolently told by the gold-bugs that
ssilver is dead issue" and that there
will be no legislation friendly to silver
during the present Administration.
We are not to have "a tariff for reve-
nue. only" but modified Republican
tariff bill, with the duties so laid as to
protect certain industries, but not suf-
ficient as a whole to meet the cur
rent expenses of the government.
More bonds are to be issued, in time
of profound peace, to pay current ex-
penses and the basis thus laid for
perpetuating the wrongful national
banking system. To still more strong
ly fortify the whisky monopoly, un-
der the plausible pretext of raising
revenue to cover the tariff deficit, the
tax on whisky has been increased ten
cents a gallon and the time for the
payment of the whisky tax extended
from three years to eight years. The
one bright page in it all is the PROPOSE
ton to raise a part of the govern
ment revenues by levylng an income
tax, but it is already confidently as
serted by the organs of the money pow
er that should the income proposition
succeed in getting through the House
it will be killed in the Senate or be We
toed by the President.

A SENATORIAL DEADLOCK.

Resolved, That the several candi-
dates for Senator be requested to APP
pear before this caucus or through the
press by those who are absent and an
swer the following questions:
~. Were you in favor of the uncon-
ditional repeal of the purchasing clause
of the Sherman act?"
80. Do you indorse the action of Sena-
tors George and Walthall on what is
Familiarity known as the silver ques-
ton?
80. What is your position on the tar
if question?
Il. Do you favor the repeal of the 10
per cent. tax on State banks?"
Pursuant to the above resolutions,
adopted by the Democratic legislative
caucus at jackson on the Odd, all of the
avowed candidates for Senator appear
ed before the caucus last Wednesday
and Thursday nights to define their
positions.
Gov. Stone s'broke the ice" by lead
ing off, and sprung genuine surprise
on the caucus by withdrawing from
the contest before it began. The
adoption of the resolutions friendly
to silver had pushed the Governor
who shares Mr.. Cleveland's gold-bug
views, into corner, and in the frank
courageous, manly way, characteristic
of the man, he declared he could not
subscribe to the resolutions and with

Hon. John M. Allen, Judge j. A. p

The Texas Baptist Standard, one of
the leading and most deservedly popu-
lar religious weeklies in the South,
published at Waco, lost its office by
fire ON the 18th inst. The material
and stock, amounting in value TO over
$4,000, was a total loss. The Stand
ard, with the true Texan pluck ever
characteristic of Dr. Cranfill, its edi-
tor, reappeared last week, and will be its
former self again, in every respect as
soon as a new outfit, which has been
ordered, arrives. The circumstances
indicate that the fire was of incendiary
origin, though Dr. Cranfill is unable
to locate the man or divine the ami
mus. In this trying hour the paper
needs prompt financial assistance and
we hope its many friends in MISSISSIPPI
pi will extend it hearty helping hand.
We would like to be millionaire
right now for Bro. Cranfili's benefit.

ON the 25th ballot, Private John Allen
withdrew while leading the race with

pledge themselves, individually and
collectively, that no election of SEN
ator shall be made in the two houses
or joint convention until nomination
is made in this caucus, and if no NOM

elect Senator, that the votes of the
