that is they have so far succeeded in

Of them believe if the Democrats should

Hanna's slogan ever since he took the

spell binders have hammered at it until
we find, even here in Mississippi, and in
the town of Macon, a few degenerate
sons Of lifelong, uncompromising Dem

of the country. - We have no hesita-
ton in saying that Hades ought to be
full of all such Democrats. They loose
sight entirely of all the glorious tradi.
tons Of the Democratic party since the
days of Jefferson, and lend a willing
ear to false and malignant statements
repeated to foment distrust
and dissatisfaction with Democratic
and their advocates. Inteli.
gent men can very easily account for
this boosted prosperity.
Richard Grant White was one of the
sblest and fairest of the Republican
