IAUKEA TAKES ISSUE


Editor Evening in:-However
one may differ on politics and | confess
that do take issue with you and many
Republican supporters on the question
of drawing strict party lines in purely
local matters, cannot help but say
that in your criticisms and comments
of public acts and utteranCes, the Bull
letin attitude has always maintained
a manly and dignifed attitude to
friend and foe alike.
am compelled to make this asser-
ton publicly, by reason of an unfair
and base insinuation, which, in re-
cent issue of the Advertiser, I was Nv
implication placed in most unenviable
light. Had the paper in question any
sense of honor and fairness, it would
have caused to be corrected ESPECIALLY
after the reference made in your edi.
torial comments of the same afternoonl
any wrong impression the combina-
ton of circumstances may have left
its readers to infer.
To be charitable; [ viewed the matter
when my attention was called to it.,
as simple and pure coincidence; but
the Advertiser further aggravates the
case by reverting to similar insinua-
tiOns of malfeasance. etc. in its edi-
torial notes of this morning with the
implied accusation of yesterday still
fresh in the minds of its readers. and
no word of explanation as to whom II
was directed against.
| am not airing this as a personal
grievance, Mr.. Editor, but to show to
what base uses men high in influence
can descend to attain their own self
ish ends. 1t is because that | have
dared to come out in open opposition
to the element that the Advertiser rep
resents. Must threats and insnuations
of this nature be held over a mans
his conscience will not permit him tC
longer eat of the crumbs that fall from
their table?

An Appeal to Common Sense,

The nonsensical and absurd at.
tacks made against Governor Lon.
gino who, though q Mississippian
in all thai the term implies, has
dared to enter the field as can.
dldate for the office of United
States Senator. The TACT that Sen
ator Money has held the Office for
some years does not give him abb
solute possession during life. Ths
constitution of the United States
fixes the term at six years and ac-
cOrding to the provision of this
document, Governor Longino has
a perfect right to enter the ranks
as candidate for that Office. In
his announcement for the Office
Governor L0nginO stated that he
stood upon his record as a man
and a State official. He rendered
to the people statement Of his
work as Governor, which act was
most seemly and proper, but what
is CALLING to the opposition 10 the
fact that his administration Of the
affairs of the executive Office has
been so clean that there was no
opening for an attack. His con-
duct has at all times reflected
credit upon the State aud the con-
duct of every man holding pub
lie Office is to be measured as we'll
as his official acts. -Nstchez Dem

I cannot understand the fool
ish hostility to the negro. He has
been eliminated by our constitu'

cognition: he only asks the poor

Bishop Charles B. Galloway has
accepted an invitation to repres-
ent the Southern Methodist
Church IN conjunction with Bish-
op Warren A. Chandler of Geor-
gia at the bi-centenary of the
birth of John Wesley which will
take place at Savannah, Georgia,
on the 25th Of June continuing
four days.
-Four bishops will participate
in this celebration. two repesen-
ting the Northern branch of the
church and two representing the
Southern branch.
Savannah is the only place
where John Wesley lived and la.
bored while in this country, and
it is therefore fitting that it sho uld
be selected as the place for this
celebration. For sixteen months
ne worked among the people Of
that town and surrounding neigh.
borhood, making frequent excur-
slons to other points. He preachl
ed in a hovel built of split boards,
and the spot where this hovel
stood is to be marked by a stone
tablet to be dedicated during the
bi-centenary celebration.
On the night Of Friday June
10th, Bishop Galloway will speak
on''Charles Wesley, the hymnist
Of the Ages" In commenting on
his selection for this honor tho
Savannah Morning News says:
Bishop Galloway is the young.
est man ever elected bishop in the
M. p. church South. He was elec-
ted in 1886, when only 81 years
years OF age. His ministry was in
Mississippi, where he was pastor
ofthe leading churches from time
to time. At the time he was elect
ed bishop he was editor of the
New Orleans Christian Advocate.
He is the most polished orator of
the Southern Methodist church
His voice is suberb, his delivery
graceful, his treatment of his
theme unctious, popular and strik-
ing. This will be his hrst visit 10
Savannah. The people desire very
much to hear him. Bishop Gallo.
ways address will in itself draw
a large attendance to the exer.
clses from the surrounding coun-
country.-Clarion Ledger.
