REPUBLICAN EDITORS.
National Association I'm Conventions
Perry Heath's Advice.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.-The National
Republican Editorial Association of the
United States met here to-day IN conven-
ton at the Arlington Hotel. About seven
ty-five members were present, including
representatives of the Republican Editorial
Associations of Illinois, Indiana, Maryland.
Massachusetts, Missouri, New York, Ohio,
Iowa. Kansas, North Carolina. Rhode
Island, Virginia and Tennessee. The con-
vention was called to order by President
John A. Sleicher, editor of Leslies Week
ly, New York. who delivered an address.
Perry s. Heath, formerly first assistant
postmaster general, was expected to speak
but was suddenly called away. His adj
dress, however. which was read by the
secretary, said In part:
Keep everlastingly at it; don't miss
a day., is advice we give to our advertisers
in season and out. If this is good advice
to those who have wares in the market it
is good advice to those who are educators
in politics. A deserving candidate stand
ing upon n good and sound platform rep-
resenting just and deserving principles, is
never defeated fairly or by facts: he goes
down by those who vote under a misappre-
hension, voters who have been fed misin-
formation, or he is cheated out of success
The Republican candidates on the national
platform OF 1896 came near defeat on ac-
count of msapprehension of conditions ex-
listing and approaching the country. L had
written, published and circulated at the
Chicago headquarters of the Republican
national committee alone over 40 carloads
of documents, over 100000,000 copies, not
to mention the millions of posters, mostly
ON the subject of silver and the tariff
Over 1900 newspapers published daily or
weekly our prepared matter, the circulation
of the daily newspapers publishing the
matter being over 350.O000o0 copies each
day, while that of the weeklies aggregated
almost that number each week. | believe
now, as 1 said frequently to Chairman
Hanna and others at the time, that the
newspapers made ten votes to each one
won by the documents"
In conclusion Mr.. Heath appealed for
continuous political publication, and added /:
Reasonably, intelligenty and dispassion-
ately presented politics is a wholesome
subject of discussion. and under the high
education and intelligence of readers of to-
day ii is as interesting and important as
anything which appears in our columns"
