SENATOR MILLS ON rnEpnEs1DENoY.


Senator Mills, of Texas, in recent
talk with reporter of the Washington
Post, when asked as to the pros
poets for Democracy in the campaign Of
1895, said:
II sincerely believe that majority
of the American people are Democrats,
according 20 the standard defined by
Jefferson and Jackson. II our people
continue to fight each other instead of
the common enemy. we may as we'll not
make the fight. II we shall make q
positive end unequivocal declaration OF
Democratic principles as Democracy
was taught by the fathers and SO 1t is
understood by the masses to-day, and
nominate q man whose record is known
for his devotion to these principles,
then we can win"
In regard to the denomination Of Pres.
ident Cleveland the Senator expressed
himself in the following vigorous man.
ner; 1.-THE man is not born that can be
elected three times to the Presidency.
Whom Gen. Washington set the example
of eight years as the utmost limit he
drew q ,danger line around the Republic.
1t is an unwEitten law that that line Ia
not to be crossed by any one. Gen.
Grant, with all his strong hold on the
people, could not rross it. Mr.. Jefferson
could not have crossed 1t in 1908. nor
Gen. jackson in 1886"
AS to who among the Democratic
leaders would poll the largest vote for
President, Senator Mills said he be-
lieved William r. Morrison, OF illinois,
was many thousand votes stronger than
any other man that could be named.
"Morrison's make up" he said, sis very
much like that Of General Jackson. He
has strong Democratic convic lions that
no pressure can make him abandon.
His sympathy Is earnestly with the
masses. He ia for equal law, equal
burdens and equal benefits. He has the
condolences of the Democratic people
everywhere. With good, clear. I'M
equivocal declaration of Jacksonian
Democracy, and Morrison, man like
Jackson, to stand on 1t, we can win"

had within Its limits 80 many battle
SCARED soldiers. 1t Is conservatively
estimated that nearly 200. 900 strangers
are here and q majority Of them thirty
years ago bore arms as brothers. The
bitter hatred of those dark days has
vanished The event OF to-day was the
grand parade Of the Naval Veterans
Association and all Louisville turned

THE PARTISAN POLITICAL ORGAN
Replaced by the Honest and Indepen-
dent Newspaper.


EDITOR TIMES:-YOur editorial last
week on the partisan political organ re.
calls the days OF old tins journalism a
half century ago. when political lines
were closely drawn and differences of
opinion on current issues involved, per-
sonal and social antagonism. Convic-
tions were formed from reading one
side, and partisan and political faith
was transmitted from father to son.
Political editors denounced each other
with such sweeping invectives that the
insults thus kindled could only be
Queuched in blood. In thope days the
success OF newspaper depended upon
it's unconditional and vehement support
OF given party, and it secured and re-
tanned patronage entirely by reason of
its readiness to defend Its party under
all circumstances: and to make things
as hot as possible for the opposition.
The moment that paper failed to stick
to Its party, right or wrong, and make
itaelf offensive to people of contrary
views and affiliations it began to lose
subscribers. In those times party
organs made and unmade party leaders,
dictated party politics, wrote platforms,
nominated tickets and supplied speeches
for the nominees.
But the times which gave a wide
license to the wearer Of the toga and she
occupant OF the tripod have gone by
and better era in journalism has en-
sued. II is no longer necessary for
Newspaper TO disregard the rules OF
justice and fairness in the discussion OF
public men and measures. The condi-
tions are such that 10 cannot afford to
play the part OF the old fashioned organ
of pitiless logic and fearless inveclives.
The newspaper of to-day is read and
respected In proportion to the honesty
and independence Of It's course and not
according to the measure of it's prejudice
and virulence. Nothing educates like
the newspaper. and abous the first thing
man wants nowadays " hen hegets out
OF bed in the morning il his ne wspaper.
The liberal reader has become 30 en-
]ightened that he prefers papers that
are willing to give fair and full slate
ments OF the doctrines and policies OF
all parties, and to publish truthful &C.
counts OF sll political events. This is
an sge Of general intelligence, and it
demands general information, and the
people want to read papers that are
ready to criticise bad platforms when
they are constructed, and bad csndi-
dates when they are nominated. The
people have learned that paper which
exposes the blunders OF party and
seeks to correct them, is worth more to
them than ono which contends that the
party can do no wrong The papers that
please them and influence them are
those which they can trust to speak the
truth to them even when the truth
hurts the party. READER.

IT cannot be doubted that the busi-
mess men of Baltimore are watching
with much interest the recent move of
the Baltimore and Ohio managers to
reach out into section of Southwest
territory which has been neglected by
them for many years. This movements
to extend their Valley branch for South
ern business is an encouraging sign.
The great trunk liues oentering in Bal
timore and the large cities farther east
have for many years occupied their en-
terprise in extensions westward. That
has been overdone, whilst facilities for
reaching and developing the Southern
trade have always been insufficient
Baltimore has sensibly felt this and her
trade has suffered in consequence. If
the Baltimore and Ohio years age had
utilized some Of its splendid opportuni-
ties OF entering the heart OF the South
and becoming the chief artery of her
trade, both the road and the city might
have been better off. A connec ton of
the Baltimore and Ohio with the Ros-
noke and Southern and the Cape Fear
and Yadkln Valley would be far-resch-
ing in it's results and be OF the creates
advantage to Baltimore-the CONNER
CT al metropolis of the South.

Gold shipments Made Yesterday.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 10-Only $3.50, 900
in gold was to-day withdrawn from the
New York sub-treasury, which leaves
the true amount of the gold reserve
S97,544 666 Treasury officials show no
uneasiness on account of the depletion
of the reserve. They argue that the
situation Ia brought about solely by
speculation, and that there is no legiti-
mate reason for gold going abroad at
this time. The movement of the cot
ton crop is now under way and this,
added to the grain shipments of the
northwest, which must soon set in, 1t is
said, is sure to overcome any speculaS
tive tendency toward further ship
ments. There is now demand in thu
north west for small notes in exchange
for gold, and the treasury has made
several exchanges of this character
with prospect OF many more in the
near future.

THE COTTON CROP.
The Lowest September Conditions Since
1881.

The Lowest September Conditions sirce
WASHINGTON, Sept. 1O.-The Septem.
Der cotton report OF the Department. of
Agriculture shows o decline from the
August condition Of the crop, which was
77.9, to 70 s per cent, q decline of z
points. This makes the lowest Septem-
Der condition Of the plant since 1881,
when it WAS reported at 10 per cent The
next lowest since 1881 was the condition
of 1893, when 1t stood for the same
month at 1914.
Cotton suffered severely during the
month OF August from the drought
which characterized the early part of
the month and the excessive rain which
succeeded It,. The presence Of bill
worms has worked great injury and the
crop has been injured by shedding and
rust. The causes mentioned by Texas
correspondents for the deterioration in
the State are as follows:
Drought, hot weather, floods, boil
worms, sharpshooters, Mexican weevil,
caterpillars. army worms and weeds.
There is striking unanimity in the pess-
imistic tone adopted by correspondents
throughout all of the cotton raising
States. The State averages are as fol-
lows: Virginia, "a; North Carolina, 10;
South Carolina, 81; Georgia, 81; Florida,
70; Alabama, "a; Mississippi, II; Louis

THE letter OF "Readcr" on the old
time partisan and political organ is
timely and we'll written review of the
style of journalism so long in vogue in
this country and the southern portion OF
1t especially. The days of personal
journalism are aboua over in the South
and an era Of wideawake news gather
ing has succ eedod the old time prac.
tees. Readers now want to know what
is happening in the world around them,
and generally form their own conclu-
sions as to current happenings, hence
they are less anxious to learn the opin-
ions OF the editor and do not follow i'm,
plicitly his guidance or tamely submit
to his dictation. Well written articles
displaying sound judgment and extended
research are always read with avidity,
however, and where the appeal is to the
reason and understanding without preju.
dice, or bias in any direction, they read
lily secure assent, and have weight in
proportion to their merits in influencing
public opinion. While the tone OF the
press has changed It's influence ia for the
better. being broader. deeper, and,
when properly used, more enduring to
the welfare of the community to which
1t is more monisor than director in
the formation OF opinions.

THE CONDITION OF CROPS.

The weather bureau st Washington in
Its report OF crop conditions for the
week ended September 0, says: Cutting
OF corn has progressed rapidly and
much OF the early crop is in shuck.
Later corn is maturing rapidly and in
Iowa the bulk OF the crop Is practically
safe. In Missouri but small part of
the crop is exposed to injury from frost
and If 90 killing frosts occur in the
next two weeks the Nebraska crop will
be safe. Frosts OF the 9th, 7th and 9Th
caused considerable damage to corn in
the Dakotas and Northern Minnesota.
Cotton picking has progressed rapidly
under favorable conditions in Texas.
and is now general over the southern
portion OF the eastern part OF the cotton
region. The condition OF cotton is re-
ported as improved in North Carolina,
Georgia, Alabama and portions of Arr
kansas, but no material improvement is
shown in Mississippi, and the condition
of the crop in Florida continues unsa tbs I.
factory. Insects have proved very in
furious in Mississippi and Louisiana,
where poisons are being extensively
used to check their ravages.
The weather during the week has
been especially favorable for cutting
and housing tobacco, which Is in full
progress in the principal tobacco States.
In Missouri. however. damp weather
has prevented ripening. Flowing and
seeding have progressed favorably in
the valleys, but in portions OF the
Middle Atlantic States this work has
been delayed on accoun. of the dry con-
dition of the soil.
