A POSSIBLE WAY OUT.

Mr. McMillin is not the choice of
the democratic voters of Tennessee
for Governor. And for a snap con-
vention to say that he is, does not
make it so. 1t NAV make loyal
party men vote for him, but there is
a large independent element it will
not Influence.
There is one way out of the diff
ficulty into which Mr.. McMillin and
his committee have plugged the
party; and that through an unin-
structed delegation. If the conven-
ton, being untTammele1 by in
structiOns, would meet and sele ct
delegates I" the national convention,
and pass u resolution declaring it
the sense Of the convention that it
were wiser and better to postpone
the making OF a platform until after
the Kansas City convention, or the
nominating of a candidate unit; a
platform was made, and fix day in
August for the holding of another
convention, with an entire new set
of delegates, then the nominee OF
the party would be safe.
Suppose, as old man Ralph Saun.
ders has suggested, that the Nc
Millin convention platform and the
Kansas City platform should not
agree; suppose the minds of these
great men should not run In the
same channel, for once; wouldn't il
be rather awkward aud stretchy for
our double-barreled candidate tc
run on a double barrel platform?
There is real danger in this; and
1t Is danger to which the party
need not be subjected. There is q
way to avoid it; and fair way; q
way to say the least of it that would
show better politics, than to let the
committees mistake drift us alons
and perchance strand the party upor
the shoal of Defeat, when the idei
of November come.
