Why" exclaimed the Montgomery Advertiser in it's issue of March 15, 1892, why this charge of fraud except to pave the way for bolt? It behooves the democrats to make the majority against Kolb so large that the folly of such an attempt will be demonstrated in ad- vance. The nominee of the convention will of course be elected but it will sava trouble to pronounce the doom of an in- dependent in advance by such vote that the most foolhardy would see it."

I will also state through the Advertiser that you and your friends deny the charge made in said Advertiser by me (McIver).' L/(Wallace) said to Mr.. McIver. Is that all? MT. McIver said: Isn't that enough?' I (Wallace) said: NO; YOU MUST ALSO STATE THROUGH THE COLUMNS OF THE ADVERTISER THAT YOU (M'IVER) COULD NOT SUBSTANTIATE SAID CHARGES.' McIver then said: YES; WILL DO THAT. Does that settle it?' I (Wallace) rep1led Yes, as far as I am if you make that statement that will settle it.. McIver then offered his hand, which I accepted, believing him to be sincere in his promises This statement was made in the presence of W. E. Todd, J. W. Tyler, Herbert Cart wright and T. F. Hurley.

The Chicago Tribune (Rep) looks ''for square split across both parties on this silver question. The politicians will not be able to dodge the issue either at St. Louis or Chicago. They will not even be able to subordinate it to the tariff or to any other issue. The effort to do this is already apparent. but it will fail It will be ruinous for either party to persist in it. The politicians may try to hide be- hind some artificial cover or to mask their real sympathies in ambiguous words. but they will be driven out at last"

By calling constitutional convention in Virginia the Norfolk Landmark Oem) says: "The question of the fran chise could be satisfactorily and prop erly settled so that we should have a statute which would in itself insure ab- solute fairness and at the same time pre- vent the domination of the intelligent classes by the illiterate negro influence. There is no race discrimination in an edu- cational and property restriction, be- cause it applies to the white man, if he be found wanting, as we'll as to the ne- gro. The fact that there would be ten negroes to one white man disqualified goes to prove the justice of the law"

Tn it's issue of April 21 1892, the Mont gomery Postoffice says of Kolb that "he started out with the purpose to secure the nomination by any means whatever or else break up the party. That he has not disrupted the party is not his fault. His progress has and will be to as- sert fraud whenever beaten. Good dem ocrats have right to doubt the sinceri- ty of man who goes over Alabama, as Captain Kolb is now doing and traduces the people of his own county as election thieves and ballot box suffers. He is now seeking to stir up strife between his brethren and will reap as he has sown.'

 That depends. In 1892 the Advertiser was sound money howler, yet the ed- itors opposed Captain Wyly and sup ported Col Jess Stallings. MT. Wy1y was Cleveland, sound money advocate, and Colonel Stallings was an anti-Cleve- land man and a full-fedged free coinage man. The Advertiser should have added to the above the following: That is the way we do when we have no personal spleen to gratify. We did not do that way in 1892 in the Second Congressional district, but you see we did not like Cap tain Wyly, and simply side-tracked our principle for the time being"
