The Biloxi Review cites the Incl
dent Of 1860 in defence of its pres
ent course, and, at the same time,
remarks that our position in uphold
ing the Bryan and Sewall democracy
is untenable and absurd.
Claiming familiarity with the his
tory of the democratic party, the BIZ
loxi Review should know that the
facts in the cases are not the same,
but, in fact, vastly dissimiIar.
The democratic nominating con.
vention which was held in Charles
ton, April, 1860. made no nomina-
tion. The delegates sent by the
southern states seeded from the
convention, and no nomination was
made. The convention met again in
Baltimore, in June, and this time the
border-states delegates withdrew,
and nominated John G. Breckenridge
and Joseph Lane. Their action was

who had held q convention of their

questions cannot afford TO be haTmonZed

William j. Bryan.
Our Bay st. Louis contemb borary, The
Echo, will cheerfully 9dmit that the fnan-
scial question is a paramount public ques-
ton, and having admitted that fact it will
wonder howsit could "afford to be harmon
lied by national convention The date
is not remote when The Echo was one Of
the mostvIgorous sound money advocates
in Mississippi. It's sudden evolution is
not more wonderful than its declaration
that its former associates are no longer
democrats because they have done exactly
what the Chicago nominees said they
should do. o.-Biloxi Review.
Yes, we cheerfglly admit the finan-
cial question to be the paramount is-
sue in this campaign, and we as
cheerfully admit having signifled our
intention to abide by the will of the
national democratic convention. This
we have done. Whatever Mr.. Bryan
or the Biloxi Review may believe Of
our course is Of inconsiderato mo-
ment TO us. We follow democracy as
our conscience bid us do, and 70 ut
terance, no declaration, no power can
change us.
Mr.. Bryan is not a measure of de-

Mr.. Bryan's character as a gem

can be or has been said against
him. The failure of the republi-

that could be paid to his charac-

had the faintest scandal upon
which to build up a falsehood
they would have done so.-Times

vancing the claims that business
disorganization, uncertainty, o

the driving of gold from use and

to the tariff, claiming that the
republicans had won the tariff
victory, and that high protection
was not now an issue. In this he
differed from Mr.. McKinley's
