Patriotism, the good OF country as
veil as party, should rule the mind
md guide every Democrat in
the selection Of party standard bearers
this year The reverses and defeats
If the past should convince every
delegate that sentimentality or isms
without principles cannot win no
matter how lrainy, popular. OF
strong, the candidate may be.
The great issues upon which the
fight is to be made should be thor
oughly weighed in the scales of JUS
tice by every thinking Democrat, and
those that do not mean something for
the good, advancement and prosper
ity of the entire country those issues
found wanting should be cast out
Only planks that favor the good oil
the entire country, favoring labor
and capital alike, should make up the
platform.
The Mississippi delegation, as well
as those from all the other States
should go uninstructed. AS we see
the outlook today some States favor
Parker, some German, Others Hearst,
while Cleveland is not without
friends, and should he consent to
allow his name to go before the con-
vention, many believe he would prove
a winner in spite of the fact that he
h rs twice befor filled the hi ,hest oil
flee within the gift Of the nation. For
this reason we think Mr.. Bryan as "A
Democrat, is making Il serious mis-
take going over the countr. trying to
array a feeling against any man who
may become the standard bearer OF
his party. This furnish IS force to
help the opponents of Democracy to
win over him,
Who Mississippi will support we
cannot say and trust her leaders are
not welded to any aspirant, posi-
bility, or candidate, prior to the st.
Louis convention. 1t would, there
fore, be the part OF wisdom to senu
her delegates uninstructed. their
hands united, with freedom to exer-
else their own Judgment in judging
the conditions, acquainting them
selves with the circumstances and
dealing with the situation, the
exigencies which no man can foretell |
or foresee. In such circumstances
they can better represent the State
and the best interests of the party |
tina if they were set to automatic
aticon without regard to the situation.
Intelligence and conservatism
should control the convention. The
mistakes of the past should be the
mirror continually held before the
delegates. The spirit [of radicalism
and political insanity must not. and
we believe this time, cannot domi-
late. And only such platform
should be adopted as will command
Tho support, at least as a whole, IF
I'll Democrats. The nominee from
uch convention will be a Democrat
worthy of the support of Democrats
md his name today may be that OF
ONE man who has or who has not
ret been mentioned in that connection.
Let Mississippi and every other
State select as delegates Democrats in

Greenville needs Western outlet.
With railroad stopping in our
back yard we cannot see why we can
not get it. All that is necessary to
get it il. for our people to come to-
gether, put their shoulders to the
work, and go after it. The entering
such a railroad into the city will
give it another outlet north, south
and vest, that means more business,
cheaper freight rates and more
money The connection can be
easily made by transport or bridge,
and we believe the city and county
could we'll afford to tax itself to
help secure it. Talk it, and we will
get it.
