A friend sent in last night the fol-
lowing tribute:
Scarcely have we been called on to
chronicle death that so forcibly re-
minds us that Gods ways are mysteri-
Gus, and it is only by faith in His
promises we can say, Thy will be
done At Washington, d. c., February

desolate is the home? But when life's
work is over, wen wait and watch

poPuLlsTs OPPOSE FUSION
That is, Fusion With the Democrats
Somes Letter That Butler Has Re-
ceiVed.

That is, Fusion With the Democrats
Somes Letter That Butler Has Re-
ceived.
4 prominent Populist said yesterday
that, if the Democrats desired it, there
could not be fusion between the Demo-
Gratis and Populists.
sMr. Dave H. Gill, Clerk of the Supe-
rior Court of Vance County, who is
here, says that the Populists in his
county are all bitterly opposed to fu-
sion with the Democrats.
This feeling against fusion with the
Democrats is strongest in the Republi-
can counties of the East. This is
probably due to the fact that the
Populists have secured minor local of
fees by combination with the Republi-
cans, and they want to hold the county
offices they now possess. This feeling
is intensest where Republicans are in
a large majority.
Senator Butler has received in the
last few days some Of the hottest let
ters he ever got in his life.
The conference between Senator
Butler, DIR. Mott, and the
Democratic missionaries stirred up
this small fry of Populist officials, and
they are firing into the High Priest of
Populism with all the ammunition at
hand. The patriotism they once pro-
fessed is bartered for office. Their I'M
dying devotion to the free coinage Of
silver has been transformed into an
undying devotion to of1ice-holding
a large element OF the Populists
declare that they are determined to
fuse with the Republicans, and do not
expect to go into any new silver party.
Most of all, they viii not fuse with the
Democrats.
Another element declare their con
fidence in Senator Butler, and their
willingness to unite in any movement
looking TO the combination of the
friends of silver.

Col. Mock fIRIe'a Love.

Those who ought to know best,
says Edgar S. Wilson in the Mis-
sissippi department of the Picf-
yune, that there is not the slight
est probability of Colonel Stock
dale running for congress again
in the Sixth district, since the ar
nouncement of Senator Love, of
Amite. Their idea seems to be
that it would be gross injustice
on the part of Colonel Stock dale
"a thing that he could never get
his consent to do-to enter a race
where Mr.. Love--was one Of the
competitors. They point out that
Mr.. Love has been one of Colo
nel's Stockdale's ablest and most
devoted lieutenants for the past
decade; that he has fought for
him in all his campaigns for Con-
gress with an unselfish devotion
that has attracted the admiration
of all; whether political allies or
adversaries; that in tho fierce
fight made against Colonel Stock
dale two years ago, Mr.. Loves
white plume nodded in the fore
front, where the battle waxed
hottest against the "TalI Pine of
Pike" giving blow for blow, and
that finally when the Stockdale
banner trailed in the dust at Pass
Christian, and the nomination
went to another, it is said that
Mr.. Love actually wept. Under
the circumstances, it would seem
that the statement-since Colonel
Stockdale is known to possess
profound gratitude-that he will
not enter into a race with Mr.. Love
who has stood Loyalty by him for
ten years in all contests, always
carrying his county for him against
all corners, would be a candidate
would be absurd. In fact it is a
reflection upon Colonel Stockdale
wholly unwarranted, it is claimed
by those who seem to know him
best.

Gently read before the Mississippi
Association at Washington, which
will be surprise to the quiet and
peac cable inhabitants that, compose
the population Of Mississippi. 1t is
strange to believe, that the sentiment
the paper says exists in large cities
about so grand commonwealth, can
be true. But If true, Mississippi
needs feel neither al armed nor an
gered, for the ignorance does not
justify her scorn it merits her COM
miseration.
1t is part OF his education that
every civilized man owes himself to
know the conditions and customs OF
the inhabitants Of the country Of
which he is part. Ignorance Of
territory and its own peculiar condi-
tion is pardonable, for that is varied
as the winds but when we arrogate
to ourselves the privilege Of judging
and condemning the people Of SOW
erign state, without cause and with
out evidence, it becomes too prepos-
ferrous TO even evoke rebuke. ST.
lent contempt is the proper treat
ment.
The Echo has always believed that
Mississippi should lay before the
world the advantages she possesses as
an agricultural and manufacturing
section, but when it comes to get on
our berded knees, and plead with o
part Of our common country to be-.
lieye that we are not bandits and
thieves, it becomes another m after,
one, The Echo feels proud to say,
no Mississippian nor any southerner,
will tolerate!
DoubIy unfortunate are some Of
the remarks Of NJ. Harrison. They
evince a submission and humility
that must be repulsiye to every man
whose blood is warmed by southern
sun. Mississippi has long emerged
from the shadows OF Bowie knives
and pistols. Civilization and even
gentleness are stamped on her brow.
II the people spoken Of by Mr..
Harrison know not these facts, let
them find out the best way they can.
Injured by their ignorance she will
not abase herself TO explain.
Mississippi and not Mississippians
is what the press and every medium
possible must place bef ore the
world.
