he made for himself National rep
utation. He was hopeful of secur-
ing the passage Of q tariff bill, when
his colleagues and the newspaper
correspondents declared such
thing was impossible.
There was not a day during the
Senate discussions of the tariff bill
when less diplomatic Senator than
Jones would not have made the pas
sage of any bill impossible. Harris,
the floor leader, was disposed to bull
doze coterie of Senator's who did
not fear his wrath. Vest was so dis
gusted with the Senate protection
lists that he could not consider them
with patience.
TIE Senate Democratic Steering
Committee pleaded with Jones to be
cautious. He did what few ambi-
tious Senators have ever consented
to do. lie voluntarily placed him
self in a position where his motives
would surely be questioned, but
where he could not possibly answer
his critics. Had he been disposed to
sacrifice his party he could have
made himself impregnable.

tariff discussion tohear that its Sen.

It would have been a good thing fol

United States would still be done

JONES AND TIE THRIFT.

Senator Jones finds himself bit
terly attacked by his Arkansas OPP
ponents for the part he took in
framing the tariff law. Heis charged
with selling out to German and
Brice, with listening to the manu-
factnrers and abandoning the Dem
ocratic idea he was supposed to rep
resent.
The Senator has replied that had
he taken different stand the Nc
Kinley law would still be in force
and effect.
He might have added, also, that
the charge of incompetency and in
ability to legislate which has been
brought against the Democratic
party would have been proved.
Senator Jones and Vest were
charged with a peculiar responsible
ity. They were asked to frame a
tariff bill which would pass the Sen
ate. 1t was quickly developed that
a bill which would represent their
ideas and the contention of their
States could not become a law. The
issue reduced itself &c Tie q ties
ton as to whether there should be
substituted for the Mckinley law
tariff measure making such reduc-
tions as forty-three Democratic
Senators would support or whether
the Wilson bill should be defeated.
In the effort to save something
from the wreck of the Wilson bill
Senator Jones worked night and day
for two months. During that time

LET TIE PEOPLE sly

IN all of the counties in this State
where primaries have been called
this year we observe that the people
have been invited to express them
selves on the Senatorial question
and vote for their choice for the
United States Senate.
The makers of our constitution
wisely lodged the power of electing
United States Senators with the
sovereign power of the. State, the
Legislature, since in our Federal
system of government United States
Senators are the representatives. of
sovereign States; or more specific
ally speaking, the Ambassadors
from the States to the Federal gov
eminent.
But by voting in primary cleo
tions and instructing their repre-
sentatives in the State Legislature
as to their choice, the people can ac-
lively and directly participate in the
selection of United States Senators.
Therefore, as nearly every other
county in the State will hold Sena-
torial primaries, why not Jefferson?
This,is a question in which all voters
feel an interest, and they should be
allowed to express their choice and
instruct their represent atives in the
State Legislature accordingly. We
trust, therefore, that when the
Democratic County Central Com
mittee calls the county primaries,
that the Democratic voters of Jeffer-
son county will be given an oppor-
tunity to vote for their choice for
the United States Senate.

The sound money Democrats of
Texas met in convention at Calves
ton Saturday, and while smarting
under recent injustices perpetrated
by the free silver wing of the party,
they adopted report which pledges
Democrats to abide and heartily
support the action of the National
Democratic Convention to be held at
Chicago on July z, 1896, declaring
their purpose to subordinate indi-
vidual preferences for candidates to
the harmony and success of the
Democratic party, and recommend
ing to the Democrats of the State to
forego in cases where it can be done
any expression as to candidates,
State or county, until the National
Democratic Convention has declared
the principles of the party on all
questions within its jurisdiction.
This action should typify the true
Democrat in every State. To cut
loose from the party in the time of
imminent danger and thus put the
Republican party back in power, is
suicide to the interests of the great
Democratic masses of the people.
Stand by your guns is the only sal
walton for the people. Bradley
County Democrat.
There is wisdom in the above ex-
cerpt and the example of the sound
money Democrats should be fol-
lowed in every Southern State where
party is put above factional diff
ferences. In view of the on-coming
Presidential campaign, it seems to
us the part Of wisdom for the State
platforms to deal exclusively with
State issues and leave all National
issues to be settled by the only
forum authorized to speak for the
Democratic party-the National
Democratic Convention. When the
National Convention speaks-the
final arbiter of all questions arising
within the party-every Democrat
should be prepared to gracefully ac-
cept the result. 1t would be en-
barrassing and disorgapizing, for in
stance, to witness two sets of Dem
Ucratic candidates and nominees GO
ing about over the State, each set
advocating two radically different
- State candidates advo-
eating free silver and Presidential
advocating sound money, or
uace versa. The demoralizing effect
Of such policy is at once apparent
and it can only be avoided in the
we have suggested and by a
general acceptance of the National !
