Williams OF Mississippi.

The canvass of Mississippi by John
Sharp Williams and Gov. Vardman for
United States Senator has led to Mr..
Williams being seriously talked of as a
candidate for President Mr.. Williams
combines the two great requisites as
leader, for in addition to being the
most scholarly debater in the country.
he also draws around him the best
minds in the party by his absolute
fairness and the power of his intelIectu-
al attainments.
That the people of Mississippi should
bring him forward as her favorite son
will meet with endorsement in MANY
other states. for probably no other
Southern man is so we'll known bv
Democrats, North and South; for in
every campaign Mr. Williams has been
q volunteer to spread the doctrines of
Democracy and no one has done it
better.

Another Richmond in the Field

Now Hon. William Suizer, Congress
man and a shining light Of staid old
Tammany Hall, comes forward and de-
MES that Mr.. Roosevelt is earring
out Mr.. Bryan's policies; because, he
says that the policies which the Presi-
dent is executing so strenuously are
Suffers own policies; and that Roose-
welt swiped the said policies from
Sulzer, and from no one else. 1.-The
President" he says, ''has taken my
policies the policies of government |
was advocating when he was a civil
service commissioner. He is working
them out to their logical confusion. "
The conclusion being worked out is,
that no power in the world can pre-
vent the denomination of President
Roosevelt next year. though it is
doubtful whether he can be reelected.
Evidently, the only way to beat Roose-
welt is to have the Democrats nomi-
nate the true author of the Roose-
veltian policies namely, SuIzer.
Welt we are for anything to beat
Roosevelt. But what is to be done
with Mr.. Bryan, and the candidates
talked of from the Southern States !;
the dark horse" Of Mr.. Watterson,
and the other able and honest candi-
dates whose policies on some mattres
have also been Swined nv Mr. POOcp
welt? If there are any others whose
policies the President has swiped, let
them come forward, so that the free
dom loving and discriminating Democ-
racy may inspect them and their poll
cies and decide between them. What
the Democracy wants is a candidate
who can unite the party; and there
will be no trouble in the convention
fixing the policies and principles that
the majority demand.
