A good many of the New Era
readers have been asking the
editor why it was the repu blican
ticket did not appear in our
columns and whether or not the
New Era was going to support
the ticket in the coming cam
paign. In answer We will say
that while we were beaten in
our fight before the primaries,
we consider that the stalwart
wing of the party was whipped
squarely, and we'll have to take
our medicine. We do not be-
lieve in all the doctrines of, the
progressives-far from it, and
against those things in which
we do not believe the New Era
will contend when it is believed
to be justified by circumstances.
We also believe, however, that
the men who are upholding these
ideas honestly believe in them
as being right, and we heartily
respect their opinions. They
are also advocating reforms with
which we are in entire accord,
and as these reform overbal-
ance the other side, we see no
reason for not supporting the
republican ticket this fall--that
IL, those men who comprise it
whom we consider to be- honest
men, honest in their convic tions
honest in their intention to carry
these refor ms out to- the best
of their ability. Along these
lines the New Era intends to
carry on its part in the cam
paign this year. We may step
on some toes. We hope not,
and will be sorry il we do.
There are some on the republi-
can ticket we cannot and will
not support for Office. About
them we have nothing to say
one way or the other. The bal.
ance will receive our hearty
support in every honorable way,
as we believe them to be honest,
capable men who will give US
an honest, conscientious I'D min
istration of the public affairs.

more Of the attitude "Come, let

seems to be not . nero rhetoric

Mr.. Bryan has no additions TO
make to the Democratic plat
form and no explanations to
give Of its meaning. He indors.
% it as , whole and passes on,
taking as texts for exposition
not its declarations, but certain
utterances of MIR. Roosevelt,
whose message Of last January
about predatory wealth" he
quotes at some length as an in
dictment of the Republican par
ty. This, quotation from Mr..
Roosevelt bv the way, 10 the
most radical part of'Mr. Bryan's
speech.
He points out that the most
conspicuous Repu blicans have
for several years adm itted that
the tariff should be revised, but
Republican Congresses have
done nothing to revise it.
He says that these Republican
leaders have been urging an en-
largement of the powers of the
interstate com msrce com missi-
on, but Repub blican Congresses
have refused to sanction plans
for q revolution in railway con.
tral and management-the La
Toilette plan, and others like it.
He not only suggests but as.
serts that $50 long - the Re-
publican party remains in pow
er it is powerless to regenerate
itself, /" thus appealing to those
Republicans who, for any reas-
on, would like to see their party
different from what it is in some
way, would like to chasten it
because they love it.
He wishes to he understood
that he seeks reformation and
not destruction, and that while
representing, aud indeed origi
mating, the Rooseyelt policies"
he interprets them in no des-
tructive sense. In q warning

The Democratic party is not
the enemy Of any legitimate in
dustry or of honest accumula-
tions. It is, on the contrary, q
friend of industry and the stead
fast protector of that wealth
which represents q service to
society. The Democratic party
does not seek to annihilate all
corporations; it simply asserts
that as the government creates
corporations it must retain the
power to regulate and control
them.
AS an abstract statement this

NEWSPAPER men
BUY NEW PAPER
Frank L. Mayes and B. S.
Bernard Purchase Me
ridian Dispatch.
YESTERDAY TOLD
OF THE CLOSING OF DEAL
WHICH HAD BEEN PENDING FOR
SEVERAL WEEkS-MR. BER
NARD TO REMAIN IN MERIDIAN

kilograms received yesterday morn
ing from Meridian, Miss, told of the
purchase of the Meridian Dispatch by
Frank l.. Mayes and B. S. Bernard of
this city, and the intention of the two
Pensacola newspaper men to assume
immediate control, conducting the
paper along the same lines as The
Journal. The paper is the only morn
ing daily in Eastern Mississippi, and
is located in the largest city of the
state. Mr.. Bernard will remain in Me-
ridian, Mr. Mayes returning to Pen
Sacola.
+ The deal had been pending for sew
eral weeks, and Messrs. Mayes and
Bernard, who had paid several visits
to Meridian, left here Tuesday night
to close the deal for the paper. which
was done yesterday morning. The
plans are for Mr.. Bernard TO remain
in Meridian in active control of the
paper, while Mr. Mayes will return
to the city during the first portion OF
next week, or as soon as the organiZa-
ton of the editorial STAFF and other
forces on the paper is satisfactorily
completed.
Mr.. Mayes is much impressed with
Meridian as business city, and be-
Il
said Of that city:
Meridian, you know, is the largest
city in the state of Mississippi. hav-
ing a population of over $4,000 people,
1t is entered by five systems of rail-
roads; it has from forty to fifty pas
Senger trains daily in and out of its
magnificent union passenger station.
which by the way, is one of the very
finest depotS in the entire south; it is
the commercial metropolis of Missis-
sippi, having besides a number OF
large joobing houses in every line OIL
merchandise, several immense depart
ment stores which would be a credit
to city of twice it's size; it has sew
Iera1 miles of paved streets and over
forty miles OF permanent sidewalks;
it is in the heart of one OF the most
productive cotton sections of the state
of mississippi and is therefore one OF
the leading inland cotton markets in
the entire south. In short, my i'm
preston of Meridian is that it is des-
tined in the very near future to be
one of the South's greatest and most
prosperous cities. 1t is already the
prosperous center of trade for large
section of the souths best agricultur-
|al territory; it's railroad facilities are
unsurpassed: and it's people are hus-
tiers with an abundance OF civic pride
and unlimited faith in their city's
future With all OF these advantages,
and many more which it would take
too much Of your space to enumerate,
it is impossible for Meridian to lag
in its onward and upward progress,
and the Dispatch proposes to take its
place in the vanguard of the progress
sive spirits of the town, and in my
opinion it can't fail to succeed as a
business proposition.
Mr.. Bernard will be succeeded as
advertising manager of The Journal
by c. S. Peters, Of Cleveland Ohio,
who, prior TO coming to this city, was
connected with large publications OF
that city, as advertising manager.
