New York Sun: The people Of Amer

example set them last week by those OF
Graham. y. c. When there were thredlS
Of lynching a negro criminal at Grahaih'
the sObcrer citizens made appeal 10 me
Governor who at once ordered Il SpeClai
term Of court for his trial. in when
court he was promptly found guilty, ana
then was subjected to the LAWFUL pen
atty.
II was the day after his execution or
Saturday last. that the people OF Amer
icus had occasion 10 act in like case
Popular excitement rose high over the
death OF n victim Of i negro murderer
who stood I'm danger Of lynchlng, but
conservative citizens took the matter IN
hand. and at once asked the judge TO
hold n special session OF court Tor the
trial of the accused.
1t is the right course that was taken
both at Graham and at Amercus Let
there be no more lynching anywhere.

But still Firing those old Chcst-
nuts at Us
In the Citizen of October 18th MI.
james Cannte fires those same old
hoary chestnuts at the editor of this
paper with an innocence and vigor as
If the charges were entirely fresh and
had never been flung at him million
times before. Mr.. Cannte writes as
follows:
To the Editor of the Citizen
] notice that the Ocala Banner is
loud in its denunciation of what it
calls fraud in Duval county. / think
that in view Of the part that F. E.
Harris took during the dark days of
carpet-bagism the Banner should be
the last one to resurrect from oblivion
Horatlo Jenkins. Those days now
seem like some horrid nightmare, and
we have striven to consign them to
the grave, or only refer to them to
point moral or adorn q tale.u And
now to have the Banner refer to n.
Jenkins! Surely f. E. Harris did not
write or see it! There is proverb
which says that "wise men change
their opinions, fools never" Brother
Harris, judged by this, must be wise
indeed. His efforts at reform was
some time in 1870. Then he Joined
the Bloxham party only few days
before the election in 1872, and when
o B. Hart was elected, he at once
saw that reform was possible only in
side tine republican party. Since then
he has been political acrobat.

The Citizens Logic.

The Citizen says the reform" or
gans ought not to say word about
the frauds in Duval and other coun-
ties because if they do it will "give
the state bad name" and brighten
the timid capitalist away from us. 1t
says the organs that persist in calling
attention to these facts are real ene-
mics to the state and should be treated
as such. 1t is a delicate matter with
the Citizen and we don't blame it for
being sensitive and wanting it hushed
up. But shall we be silent also about
other crimes and for the same reason ?
Won't the mentioning of these have
the same effect and keep away the
timid immigrant who is hunting in
Florida for land of Utopia? Shall
we keep up the delusion aud fol
fear of becoming enemies to the state,
be silent about murders, and lynch
ings, and arsons, and thelts, and en-
deavor to cover up these crimes under
a bushel so as to fool the world into
the belief that Florida is second
Eden and its inhabitants as innocent
and guildless as were our first parents?
Let's be honest, let's tell the truth and
fear nothing. The newspaper that
bravely does this will hardly be re-
garded as an enemy to the state. The
condoning and covering up of crime
is not the way to prevent it.

Az statesman and = patriot the
Hon. David Bennett Hill, Of New
York, stands suDlimely above all
other men in this country. The fol-
towing words from his Syracuse
speech are indeed "apples of gold in
pictures of silver Listen to what
he says:
In country like ours, which is governed by
political parties and not by royal families, the
existence of two great political parties is es-
sential to the general welfare. There must
necessarily be differences of opinion on some
public questions and such differences honestly
entertained, furnish no excuse for coarse abuse
or bitter personal reflections
IF the nomination which have reluctantly
accepted under circumstances with which you
are familiar shall be ratified by the people 1
shall assume the Office under no obligation to
any ring, machine, cabal or political clique and
free from any entangling alliances whatever
and with the sole desire to discharge my duty
to the whole people according to the best of my
ability.
ITO party friends have only to say that
past differences shall be forgotten, and that all
interests. all sections and all factions shall be
treated fairly and alike.
II have consented to make the present con-
test not to crafty any personal ambition, but to-
assist i'll aiding the democratic cause, which is
near aud dear to my heart and with which 1
have been identified all my political life.
Il cannot too severely denounce those men
in other political affairs for personal or pecun-
iary advantage, but l welcome to the demo
cratic ranks all earnest and sincere men-inen of
strict integrity, ambitious though they may be
who desire to promote the success of right
principles, to aid the cause of good government
and to elevate official standards
II regret that certain very estimable gentle
men in New York and Brooklyn have announced
their unwillingness to give me their support at
the election and express desire to advocate
third ticket. deplore such action, not on ac-
count of any injustice result to myself per-
sonaily, but for the democratic cause, which
their unwise action tends to imperil.
They know as we'll as 1 do that this nomi-
nation was not of my own seeking and that for
a week sought in every honorable way to be
relieved from the burdens and responsibilities
which its acceptance imposed, but found it
impossible.
with malice towards none aud with charity
to ALL with no words of censure or complaint,
leave, them to discharge their duty to their
country and their party according to their own
conscientious convictions.
Il beg only to suggest and hope that if they
cannot consistently see their way clear to give
me their support, they will loyalty support my
honorable associates upon this ticket. Daniel
N. Lockwood and Charles +. Brown (applause),
who rtust will consent to the use of their names
as candidates upon the third ticket if a third
ticket there must be.
II am willing to make my sacrifice of pride,
of feeling or advantage which will aid the demo-
cratic cause or any of its candidates in any
respect.

The Froo rre1s and the Banner.


While the Free Press was berating
and bringing In question the democ
racy Of the Banner, not for advising,
but as it says for suggesting the
scratching of the county ticket,
its associate editor was in New York
not merely suggesting but actually
and openly advising the knitting of
David B. Hill, the unwilling nominee
of the party in New York, and the
most pronounced and patriotic demo-
cratin the whole country. Thedefeat of
Mr.. Hill would lose New York to the
democracy for all time to come and
imperil the success of the democracy
in the nation. The following is Mr..
Bishops letter which we find in the
Citizen. 1t is addressed to the New
York Evening Post:
SIR:-I write from the standpoint
of a native of the state who has lived
in Florida since 1868, and been identi-
fled with the democratic party since
1876. l feel deep interest in the well
fare of the democracy of my native
state and of the country at large. One
of the views which entertain was
expressed some years ago in the fol-
lowing sentence: ut is unqnestiona-
bic that the overshadowing need of
the United States to-day is the recog-
milton by the great body of intelligent
voters of their responsibility for the
characters of their respective parties"
This being my conviction, am shut
up to desiring the defeat of David B.
Hill. His election would serve to
make Hillism paramount in the DEM
ocratic party, and such degradation
would introduce long period of DEM
ocratic impotence.
