The newspapers of the country did it.
Thb Farmer’s Alliance of Mississippi,
an reported by the Memphis Appeal*
Avalanche, last week Issued an address
''reoomtnending the suspension of all
participation in politics until 1890, and
nrflac farmers to devote their energies
to the profitable diversification of crops.
The leofcirere of the State have been In
structed to preach this new gospel of
agricultural reform and to use every
yKMfr)U effort to develop the stock and
king Jntareata of Mississippi.” The
ata Constitution reports that the
a neighboring county got
i other day and voted for
I factories and fewer courts." The
nville Times- 1'nion says “it is ex-
gmtiljlDg to note the promi*
i> everywhere being given by the
I to the Industrial news of Florida,
| to contrast this with the decadence
4 tike purely political matter which had
WpeWfare been such a marked feature
qf nearly all tbs Florida newspapers, it
li. indicative of a turning of poiinlar
don to the development of the
S resources, and of a growing In
in material rather than political
affairs."
SrrmeTo
ilabored
forth on
isldent’ff platitndl
Wan given to the country,
with nothing, and devoid of
ijtblng that Democrats had a
to expect. It Is unlike the usual
and forcible documents that
r^s^'raierlj emanated from Mr. Cleveland,
f for the reason, no doubt, that, feeling
that he la not In accord with his party
on vital issues, his heart is not in what
he says. He devotes moro space to gar
den seed than tm #?*#«. to thu tariff. He
has long paragraphs on reports of the
heads of departments and but brief ones
on the tariff, sliver, Hawaii and other
important subjects.
Mr. Cleveland Is not as confident
the great good the repeal of the Sherman
law is going to do tbs country as be
when ho recommended the repeal,
thinks now that it may result In good
and be odvliee against any further legis
lation on the silver question. He wants
corgresatodo nothing, ne stands just
as the financiers of Wall street stand.
He wants things let alone just as they
are. lie declared against “alluring
temporary expedients." This is taken
to mean that he Is against the repeal
the 10 per cent tax on State banks,
does not mention this plank of the plat
form, nor does he refer to It farther
than to say that "we should resolutely
turn away from alluring and temporary
expedients." Mr. Cleveland Is really
against that plank of the platform which
deoU»a for tbs repeal of the 10
cent tax on the issue of State banks.
With bis opposition It will be very
difficult, If not Impossible, to pass such
a measure, through congress, through
peop e ty* Southern members will fight hero!-
Fan in ca ], y foflt#
After suggesting at somo future time
another international
ence, which everybody
arrant humbug, he does
commendation for financial legislation.
He "earnestly suggests the wisdom of
inding the existing statutes In regard
to the issuance of government bonds."
He wants a bond issue. It isja sad real!
zatioa for the South, but it Is neverthe
less true, that Mr. Cleveland fs the em
bodiment of the Eastern idea of finance.
He is In favor of those things which are
recommended by the Now York bank
ers, and ho is against everything that
the South and West are clamoring end
crying for. ~~ '
There is a good deal about tariff ro-
form, but It Is from the standpoint of the
New England manufacturcr.land not that
of the Democratic platform which de
clares protection to be robbery,
speaks of the changed condition of af-
fairs and seeks to demonstrate how
change of the tariff laws and the placing
of raw material on the free list will bon
efit manufacturers.
He says not a word about the repeal
of the 10 percent tax on state bank Is-
i * vital point In the Democratic ar
ticles of faith; and he Is In favor only of
income tax on corporations, not indi
viduals.
As to the Hawaiian matter, the presi
dent announces that Mr. Willis has Loco
sent to Honolulu with instructions
undo the wrong that has been done by
those representing us, and to restoro as
far as practicable the status existing at
the time of “our forcible intervention.
This means that Mr. Willis has been In
structed to restore the queen to the
thfone of Hawaii and dispossess the pro
visional government, which
recognized, not only by the UnltedStates
but by every great power on earth.
It is the weakest and most unsatisfac
tory message that Mr. Cleveland has
ever penned; and It Is so regarded by all
unprejudiced persons.

May levy its ten per cent, tax on our banks for affording relief to the people by issuing

low figures the new, beautiful and varied stock which we bought for cash duriug the late finan
cial crises, when one dollar counted as two in purchasing goods North.
Call and see our Oak Chamber Suits from $ 1OO
down to $ 15. Think of a Solid Oak 3 piece suit,
French bevel plate glass, Bedstead 6 feet high for
$ 15:00. Cheap at $25.
30 Suits and more coming.
A large line of Side Boards of five different factories, now in stock, present varied styles
and]are offered at selling prices, whilst still others are en route.
Lounges from $4.50 up. Baby Carriages $5 to $20. The Sea shell will make any baby
look pretty. Our line of Hat Racks cannot be duplicated in price in tbe State.
Those Plush Rockers “are too pretty for anything,” except a good wife or sister.
I if Silver Plated goods, assortment is complete and prices as low as same grade can be
bought in the State. Our line of Crockery, Glass and China cannot be described but must be
seen for their beauties to be realized. As for “those lovely toilet sets” they are pretty enough
“for some other fellow’s sister.” Then those Office Desks, dining and extension and other
