They say that Bcner has declur- 1 he is conscientiously opposed to Cleveland. It is just because such men will not endor.se him that the reform governor is so powerful with the people. If the democrats wish :i candidate who is strong with the masses they cannot expect the dead beats and wire-pullers to work for him. If the voters give tip the gov ernment to such men the democracy may buy a coffin immmediately, but if they give the leadership to these we will be disgraced as well as beaten. Our delegates at Pensacola are now laboring under the responsibili ty of chosing a candidate who will represent the foremost thought and most progressive ideas of our citi zens. That the nomination will be satisfactory to our party we cannot doubt; neither can we be apprehen sive of the election of any man to be chosen by those who assemble to day in Pensacola. But the impor tance and significance of the inde pendent movement must not be dis regarded, and each man owes it to himself and his party that no effort on his part shall be wanting to make assurance of success doublv sure in November. One of our citizens was at "Wash ington and participated in the grand reception of Logan. He is now of the opinion that the republican tick et is invincible, and that even Flor ida must go to swell the Blaine re turns. Another has learned of Kel ly's dissatisfaction, and is in hopes that Cleveland will be nominated so that Iiis opponent may have a w: Ik over with only enough trouble to bind the members of the g. o. p. in closer bonds of union. Against these two we place the opinion of a noble orator from Volusia who knows tl at Cleveland can win the national eh c tion as easily as ho did that of N w York, and who sees in the prese.it aspect of a; "airs only a fair field -.n vhich deni " -ts may amuse theia elves by -"ring laurels easily on. So n'i' "ie views of intelli gent men wht n political excitement Iieats the bnin to fever, and the 1 for pari fur -tish.es fuel to the en. But in .11 this the very r. feeling prevails, and no more is iiiTerenee of opinion a mark of moral obliquity. This is one of the best signs of the times, and shows that not even the bloody shirt would avail to sow discord or hate in the hearts of honest men who are politi cal brothers. For this we are trulv grateful. von OONCJHKSS. The prominent candidates before the Palatka convention will be Dougherty, Sanchez and Martin. Each is indorsed by his own county, and the contest will be warm and intensely interesting. But we have no fear that any such bitterness will be excited in the district as charact erized the preliminary state canvass. The contestants are all democrats tried and true, and each will earnest ly and enthusiastically support the nominee of the convention when the decision is once made. Partisans are too apt to forget that they are also citizens; in Florida of bite we have been forgetting to some extent our duties as democrats. It is some consolation to know that attacks on opponents within the party usuallv operate only as boomerangs, and the anonymous attack on Carrington Sanchez in the Times-Union will rather strengthen the chances of Alachua's entry. Delegates to a convention are like all Saxons in their sympathy for the part' attack ed, and the emphatic letter of The executive committee will give Mr. Sanchez a good start in the race. Dougherty is especially strong with the men who are hard to bring out, and the method of managing the canvass as outlined by him will be new and effective. It is the farmers and stockmen who give the demo- pntip moinritipa 5ti tlio river criiin- ties, and with these Dougherty is a ! declared iavont-c. His weakness lies in his supposed inability to influence the conservative republicans who vote with us on state questions. .Mr. Martin seems to be the unani mous choice of Marion, but he is less known with us than either of his op ponents. His well-known and ex eellent character as man and demo crat, however, will give him a strong folio whip; in the convention. THE PUIXCKSS ANJ ANITA. We report from the Times-Union the finding of the inspectors in the case which excited such angry feel ing in some quarters. The language wherever possible is almost identical with that of the coroner's jury at the inquest. While the owner and officers have the sympathy of our community, a juror is bound by his oath to disregard such considerat ions and make his verdict dependent alone on the law and the evidence. The course pursued by some parties who decide without hearing the ev idence and give emphatic utterance to their disapproval of court and jury is subversion of all law and or der. Public opinion must approve of the proceedings or the effect of the sentence on the public is entire ly lost. The juries of Cincinnati and Jacksonville are blamed for al lowing sympathy to overbalance jus tice; the juries of Palatka are blam ed for doing what seems at least to them only simple justice. In such case it is well to give prominence to the endorsement given by other courts. IX Till B10AK PITS. The Spelling Hook Fable Put to Ac count. In Paris recently a workman fell over the parapet of one of the lieur pits at the Jardintles Plantes, and very nearly be came a prey to two huge bears awaiting their afternoon repast. The man lay for a few minutes insensible, with a bad wound on his head, from which there was a copious flow of blood. The spec tators for a short time kept the bears em ployed, by throwing them broken pieces of bread, but they made so much noise in carrying out their well-meant stratagem that the animals were fright ened away from this frugal entertain ment, and the male, wandering about in search of refuge, approached the more palatable food and licked up the blood flowing from the prostrate sufferer's wound. Amid intense excitement, the keepers arrived and the man recovered Iuk senses. Seeing his danger, however, he lay still, as if dead, while the keoers prepared a rope, and distracted the lear from its prey by striking it with long IHiles. At length the prisoner clutched the rope and was .sjieedily hauled aloft, to the disappointment of the Itear, who displayed much irritation at the with drawal of so dainty and ample a meal. The rescued individual, who was badly hurt by his fall, was conveyed to the hopital. Senator Pomeroy Nominated For President. Chicago dispatch June 20th says: "The platform of the American Prohibition Anti-Masonic Convention declares that the ( iod of the Christian Scriptures is the author of civil government; fa vol's the use of the Bibles in the schools; asserts that Cod requires and man needs the Sabbath; demands strict prohibition laws, the withdrawal of all charters to secret lodges, and that their oaths be prohibited by law; opjioses prison and imported contract lalor; pledges the party to vote for woman suffrage; as serts that the civil equality granted bT the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fif teenth amendments should le extended to Indians and Chinamen; that land and other monopolies should le discouraged; that the government should furnish a sound currency; that the tariff should le reduced, and that polygamy should at once lie suppressed. S. C. Pomeroy, of Kansas, Gov. St. John, of the same state, and the Rev. J. Blanc-hard, of Illi nois, were named for President of the United States. Of the 77 votes cast Mr. Pomeroy received 7'2, and his nomination was made unanimous. For Vice Presi dent, J. A. Conant, of Connecticut, was nominated bv acclamation. Coming Down to Lower Duties. New York World. So wo are afraid the Blaine party will have to meet the issue of reform, pure ami simple. After the democracy has won that Kittle and obtained possession of the government it will pay due atten tion to the great necessity of revenue re form, lower duties, economical expendi tures and honest taxation, on which the party will he found as united as it now is on the preliminary necessity of the rescue of the government from corrup tion.
