Bryan's Striking Sentences.

"rhe Republicans shall not be per-
mitted to evade The stupendouS issue
of Imperialism.
I'VE cannot repudiate the principle
OF selt.government in the Philippines
without weakening that principle at
home. h
"The advocates of Imperialism dare
not say a word in behalf of the Beers.
"The Democrat party does not op-
pose expansion when expansion en-.
largeS the area of the republic.
"lf we have an imperial policy we
must have larger standing army.
THE Republican party has accepted
the European idea and planted itself
upon ground taken by George III.
History furnishes no example of
turpitude baser than ours if we sub
stltute our yoke Tor the Spanish yoke
"A war OF conquest is as unwise as
it Is unrighteous.

This is not leap year because a year
is not exactly 1865 days, 8 hours, 4S
minutes and 46 seconds long. II the
average year were exactly 1856 days and
6 hours long the extra six hours would
make up an extra day OF twenty-four
hours exactly in four years. and there
would always be leap year at this
interval. This shortage Of 674 seconds,
however amounts to 269, 800 seconds
IN 400 years-that is, To about 4473
minutes, or about "A hours, or about
three days, So we have to lose three
leap year days every 400 years. These
are omitted from the years ending in
90 at the end OF each century, except
every fourtl, century. There was a
leap year in 1900, and there will be
another In 1000, says an exchange.
But this will not satisfy those who
say the nineteenth century ended last

Senator German will make speeches
for Bryan in Maryland anyway and
Will also speak in doubtful States il
asked to do SO by the Democratic
National Committee. He thinks the
prospects of the ticket are bright and
adds: 8 see that the Republican
managers are taking it for granted
that Maryland will cast it's electoral
vote for Mckinley. Well, let the tell
you that August predictions often
bring the wouldbe prophet into bad
repute. II the Republicans are not
more certain of carrying New York
and other doubtful States than they
are OF Maryland | am inclined to be
lievc that their hopes are doomed to
disappointment"

Supporting a newspaper costs IA
town scarcely a cent. Though the
paper may be well patronized and the
business men may spend large sums
OF money advertising, the cash verv
quickly gets back into the channel of
trade from whence it came. Nearly ev.
cry cent u paper gets is spent a. home
and 1t goes to the merchants who de-
light in bcnetitting themselves and
the community by liberal advertising.
Bottled down, the facts are that a
newspaper returns all the money it
gets to those who give it, and it's
work of building up the town and
country are thrown in for good will.

MOSS POINT BELICERENT STRIKERS.

The special term OF the circuit
court convened here Monday morning,
and the grand jury at once took up
the cases against Jim Williams, r..
Underwood, Charles Williams, Allen
Tatum, Tom Moffett, Eddie Hamil-
ton, Hezakiah Plenny, charged with
shooting the mill hands at the l.. n.
Dantzler mill on July 7th last. All
of these men except II. Plenny and
Tom Moffett confessed to the Com
mittee at Moss Point that they took
part IN the shooting, and while each
one made niS confession separately
and apart from the others and each
one stating in detail many facts
just as stated by the others, the Com.
mittee was fully impressed of the
truth OF their statements, All OF
them were sent to jail, and just be-
fore going into jail they were brought
before Justice of the Peace A. ID.
Krebs and fully Informed that they
could make any statement they saw
fit under oath. All Of them who had
confessed before the Committee told
the same story to Judge Krebs, which
was written down word for word
by Mr.. VIM. Il. Woods, and each one
swOre to the statements and signed
them.
Hezakiah Plenty, having SOME
means, employed some Mobile lawyers
who came and talked to all of them in
Jail, and the result was that when
they were arraigned before the court
every one Of them plead mot guilty
On Wednesday morning the cases were
taken up and II. Underwood, jim Will
liams. Charlie Williams and Allen
Tatum were convicted before l(
o'clock. These four had no attorney.
At 10 o'clock the case of Hezakiah
Plenny was taken up and stubbornly
fought by his attorneys.
A very significant feature of the
trial of Hezekiah Plenny was the in
terest shown by the many negroes
present There can be no doubt but
that nine-tenthS of the negroes present
knew full well the guilt OF Plenny,
yet it was plain that every one wanted
him to come clear. Every hit or point
made by his attorney was greatly
relished by every "darkey" present
This is but In keeping with the nature
of the whole race, and leads the
thoughtful mind to inquire to where
it will finally lead. We very much
fear the end will 30 disastrous tt
