THE UNITED STATES A SOUTH AMERICAN
BUGABOO.

The countries of South America have grown
alarmed to considerable degree at the imperialistc
policy of the United They feel very much as
the chickens do when hawk alights in the barnyard
or shoal Of little FISH when shark comes swimming
amongst them Very many of them suspect that "the
great republic OF the north they call this country
has some fell purpose concealed behind the PanAmer
can Congress that that assemblage is sort of Borgia
feast we giving, and that there will be poison in
the food served.
This is the tone of many Of the newspapers OF
South America and OF many OF the newspapers of
Spain we'll

The South American countries, when the wind

They are needessly alarmed The United States have
no intention injecting anything into the proceedings
OF the Pan-American Congress that will lead 10 the fu

have no designs against the independence Of of the
South American countries. The animus of the press

The Waco Times-Herald continues to insist that be-

people of Texas propose to take unusual interest in
the selection of railroad commissioner next year ITS

The POST by its own standard of motive that paper
fuses to admit that attention may be called with good
intentions to the existence OF feeling that the rail
road commissions tariffs not arranged as to af-
ford State jobbers and manufacturers ample, though
reasonable in which to compete with their inter.
state competitors.
AS a matter of fact the Tmes-Heralds quarrel in
this instance is with the iobbing and manufacturing
interests of the State but with characteristic dupcity
II prefers to bette the issue in order that it may
have an for misrepresonting The Post for CIV
ing those interests a hearing. Embarrassed by its
charge that the present commissioners are in league
with the railroads against Texas mills and merchants,
it endeayors to jump the record though claiming the
record it's long suit, and to shift the responsibility
for said charge to The Posts shoulders because The
Post has seen fit to print suggestions, the offering OF
which indicates that public confidence in the commits
sons integrity and power for good is mistaken.
Neither Inc Post nor the manufacturers has ever
charged that the commission is in league with the rail
roads The jobbers and manufacturers feel that th'
commission has not given them all they are entitled
to in the way OF rate advantages, and The Post has
simply told about it and called attention to the merits
Of the claims they make.
The people at large are of the opinion that
change of policy would prove advantageous, and arr

Mr. Tomlinson Replies.


 Tate Springs, Tenn, July 23, 1901. Editor The Advertiser:
 On my arrival here from New York today an Alabama friend handed me . copy of The Advertiser containing the card signed "J. c. L.," quoting and commenting on part of supposed interview from me in one of the New York pApers. The New York paper does not quote me correctly. l did not say anything that could be construed as candid admission" that the Dem ocratic party Is calamity party.
 What I said on that question was that the Democratic party. under con- ditions then prevailing. could not nave won in 1900. no matter who the candi- date or what the platform-for the his- tory of this country shows that no party has been turned out Of power during such conditions: and that, if the same conditions continued, then no Democrat, on any platform that could be framed. could be elected in 1904.
 That the present speculative condi- tions will continue. I do not believe. The New York Herald. editorially, says there will be . day of reckoning soon, and I fear that distress and nisfor- tune of the people" of which the card writer speaks, will come, and the Re- publican party will be held accounta- ble and then the Democratic party can win. unless it becomes a mere party of expediency-a party without charac- ter-a party without character can not win more than a man without charac- ter can succeed.
 do not contend that the Democratic party need necessarily make silver an issue in the next campaign. for the ab- normal increase in the supply of gold has partly removed the immediate ne- cessity for 1t. at the same time prov. ing the Dem6cratic contention that more money increases values and makes better times.
 Democrats have no apologies to make for tsse and 1900. and sneers cannot hurt . party that. under the conditions then prevailing, was only beaten by only a few hundred thousands out of about 04,00o. .0o0) fourteen million votes poiled. Yours truly.
 Jno. W. Tomlinson.
