fetgiDR Il. the DemocfAtic CONVEX
ton OF Indiana which refused to
make an issue OF either Mr.. Bryan
or the Kansas City platform, It
makes its meaning cIeafIin the fol,
loving plain words: -
~.sThe SentlDelhas always been
a bimetalIist, but never a fool.
| The same may be said of the Dem
ocratic party Of Indiana. 1t is to
daymores harmonious, more agf
erestiye and more confident than
Il has been for ten years The
recent convention was comppsed
Overwhelmingly of men who. like
the Sentinel, supported Mr. Bryan
loyalty and enthusiastically, in
1895, andwith equal loyalty, II
somewhat Jess enthusiasm in 1900.
The platform committee was com;
posed exclusively of men who
fought with Bryan in 1900, and
not more than one member OF it
was suspected of even faltering in
1896. The chairman OF the COM
mittee who reported the resolu-
tidns was B. F. Shiyely, always
pronounced Bryan man anda radl-
cal silver man. This committee
made platform which expresses
the views of the practically I'M
animous Democracy Of the State.
1t was ratified by the convention
with q whoop. 1t is a thorough
going Democratic platform, sound
on every question, vigorously an
ti-monopolistic, and its GROWING
virtue is that it is free from the
fatuous bourbonlsm which would
tie the party to a corpse which,
however lovely in life, is too
beautiful IN death to be disturbed.
There may be for the deceased, in
the future, a glorious resurrection.
Should events call it to life the
Sentinel will, as always, do its
duty. Meanwhile the cast-iron
logic of the situation dictates de-
cent and sdeedy burial. Decom-

OUR SENATORS.

The press from all parts of the
State are calling on the different
Counties to send only men of broad
minds, progressive statesmen to
the next Mississippi legislature.
The rapid industrial progress the
State is making will bring before
this honorable body, questions
that only statesmen can handle
and. decide them for the State &
continued prosperity. In the
past legislatures no county was
represented by more able gentle
men both IN the Senate and the
House than those who were there
in the interest of Washington
county. Each are men who hold
honor above wealth and the well
fare of the State above their own
political advancement. I ley
should all be returned by the :.
animous voice of our people 0.
we can find no better, but on goou
authority, we understand that a
part will not accept; as they are
all lawyers of large practice and
to be absent at .the tune of the
year the legislature meets a sacri-
fee has to be made which they
have done several years and now
think some one else should make
the sacrifice. Whether they are
right In their reasoning or not we
will not comment but all will
agree that if they will not return
theiI equals, if we have them in
the county must be sent. The
standard of our representation
must be upheld.
While we admit 1t is a little
early for candidates to open up a
CAMPAIGN still it is not too early
for the press and people to com
mence looking around for over citi
zenship for men to fill these i'm
portant positions. For one of
the senatorial positions we think
the county can make no mistake

TIRED or MR.. BRYAN.

Mr.. Bryan did not like the plat
forms adopted In their State con-
ventions by the Democrats of Ind
lana, Illinois, Georgia, Maine,
Tennessee and Pennsylvania, be-
cause they contained no indorse-
ment OF him and free silver. On
the contrary the platforms showed
Mr.. Bryan theDemocracy is tired
of his leadership. The only grain
C, ru.-tica- comfort that has come
to him this year was the reaffi rma-
ton Of the Kansas City platform
by the Missouri Democratic con
vention, but in that State the con-
dit!ons are not promising for the
( lion to the United States SEN
ate of his friend and lieutenant,
Ex-Governor Stone, a candidate
for the seat to be made vacant by
the retirement from political life
of the venerable Senator Vest,
who is in poor health and SO feeble
as to be scarcely able to attend to
his official duties.
The indianapolis Sentinel does
not attempt to conceal its disgust
for Mr.. Bryan'srecent denuciation
of prominent Democrats who diff
er from him him concerning the
future politics OF the party that
goes by the name of "reorganiza-
ton" bnt is misnamer, because
the Democratic party needs no
reorganization, and has only tol
deal with live issues instead of |
dead ones, and among the latter is |
certainly the silver issue. Mr.. |
Bryan practically acknowledged |
this to be SO by his canvass of 1900
when the coinage question having
n place IN the platform was side
tracted as absoIete. The Indiana
polls Sentinel objects emphatlcalIy
to Mr., Bryan's assuming to mono
police the conscience and virtue |
Of the Democratic party for him !

We do not expect any trouble
in the city on next Tuesday, the
day for the murderers Of Rhea to
hang. Stillthe mayor and sheriff
should have a number of police In
citizens clothes that will mix
among the crowd and should any
trouble start it IAN be stopped at
nc e and the men arrested.
Another prevention we might add
and that is, the proprietors of the
different saloons in the city have
their employees refuse the sale of
Intoxicating drinks to anyone
who shows that he is becoming
intoxicated. The above are only
offered Jas suggestions and goes
with the old but true saying that
an ounce of prevention is worth a
pound of cure.

NEGRO, TAXPAYERS AssOCIA.

I A movement has been launched
among the negroes of Mississippi
to induce the members of the race
to pay all taxes legally assessed
against them, says u jackson dis
patch. The movement has its in
cipiency in Marion county, where
the Negro Taxpayers Association
has been Organized, and similar
associations are to be put on foot
in other parts of the state
The resolutions adopted declare
that it is II public injustice that
any class OF people should seek
to escape fulfillment of any obi
cation justly due from them; that
the poll tax requirement is reason
able and just, and all male negroes
stop the habit of evading the tax,
thereby bring reproach upon the
race, and intellectually poverty
Iupon,their children.
In conclusion the resolution de-
clares gthat@ the Suppression of
crime among tina negroes can be
greatly aided by enforcing the
payment of taxes, and thus max
ing betterscitizeps. Ae4y6

" speeches of friendship for the Unit
ed States.
The fact that President Roosevelt
had daughter old enough to partici-
pate in the ceremonies attending the
launching Of the emperor'S new yacht
building in this country, was seized on
as a happy coincidence and Miss RoOse-
welt has been invited 10 christen the
new vessel, whose name, il is said. will
be Alice, in her honor.
p . .
Now, on top OF all. not only is the
emperor's imperial yacht, the Hoher..
zollern, ordered 10 be present at the
ceremonies, but Prince Henry. the very
man who incurred Admiral Dewey's
displeasure at Manila. has been di-
fected 10 come TO Washington as the
emperor's personal representative and
express the desire of Germany for the
friendship Of the United States.
1t also looks as if he had been Sc
lected 10 make apologies for the sus-
picions raised by his conduct in the
Orient
1t is now the move Of che United
states and consultations are being held
as 10 the proper reception to be given
Prince Henry. He VIII be dined and
feted at the White House and it is
probable that ball viii be given the
guest of the nation. at the expense of
the state department contingent fund,
or whether he viii be the guest of the
German ambassador has not yet been
decided
When he arrives at New York on the
kron Prinz Wilhelm or the Kaiser Viii
helm der Crosse he will be greeted by
ships of the United States navy and
be escorted with great ceremony into
the harbOr. Undoubtedly some of the
most powerful vessels of The United
States navy viii be collected for the
inspection of the prince, who is him
self an admiral in the German navy.
These vessels will also give the Hohen-
ZolIern 4 cordial reception.
Altogether the impression that the
prince will receive is that the United
States is a naval more than a military
power. because it viii not be possible
TO mass army troops here to give him
an idea of the strength of the United
States in that particular He will,
however, have an opportunity to see
the extent of the country by being
feted in different cities. Altogether it
is expected that the visit of Prince
Henry Will have the effect intended, of
promoting good feeling between the
two countries, and what is more i'm
portant, OF preserving the peace.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1902-02-02

Tt is suggested that it would be a
much appreciated courtesy were Ad-
miral Dewey TO hoist his flag in com
mand of the North Atlantic SQUADRON
and be the first 10 greet Prince Henry
in New York harbOr. It viii be re
membered that Prince Henry was in
supreme command Of the German As
iatic squadron when Dewey was at
Manila. They did not come into per
sOnal contact. as Admiral Won Died
richs commanded the German vessels
at Manila. The meeting of the admiral
Of the American navy and Prince Hen
~, therefore, would be of special sig
nificance.
Admiral Dewey is still carried on the
active list and there is a prospect. that
he will be detailed 10 the temporary
command of the North Atlantic SQUAD
ron 10 welcome Prince Henry.
