Our esteemed contemporary, the Rod
noke-C a,owar-Tmes. Of Rtc1, Square, N.
c., wants to know what has become Of
those party leaders who went to the st.
Louis Convention to crush Bryan and all
he stood for, who were tired Of being
defeatcd?'
We do not know what has become OF
them But they We're in evidence Of, cleo
ton day, and voted to n man for the DEM

"rn tho great bank Of oternlty sa1d
Governor vardaman,i Of Mississippi IN ing
Thanksgiving proclamation, II believe tho
greatest credit Will be given y, him VINO
has Contributed most to tho sum OF
human joy; who has planted flower ~
the falntlng heart of iespasr aud Kissed
it with the sunshine Of hope ana VINO
has painted the pallld check Of cnrc with
the rose of health ind happiness
It is plain, from this that the poetic
Governor of Mississippi has not yet cut
his hair.
AT tho time when Richmond turned
down Mr.. Carnegie's, generous offer, the
Landmark expressed tho opinion thui
mistake had been made Norfola is GER
taanly fortunate in having accepted the
gift he proffercd. BY the way. the lot
was donated not by mir Sclden, but
by the daughters or the late Or. aci;le,l
as a memorial to their father. who took
n great interest in the Norfolk library
as long as he lived.-NorfollS Landmark.
Tho Landmarks opinion coinctdod with
our own Richmond has made mis-.
take in not accepting Mr.. Carneg)e's offer
But the offer is still open. and the mis-
take may be corrected.
