ALL O.N THE BAND WAGON .
The .Brooklyn Citizen says
that ''.Bryan's confidence is -justi.
tied." The New York Kvening
Mail says that "Uryan is not to
be despised." The Boston Globe
says that "the temper is to let
bygones be bygones." The
Columbia State says that "when
a man can survive defeat as
Bryan has done it shows that he
is a man of strength." Tom
Taggart- says that "it is the
greatest ticket ever named."
Norinon E. Mack pays that "it
is the greatest ticket ever noriii
nated and the greatest conven
tion ever held." Will J.Conyers,
chairman of the New York state
committee, says that "it is
live wire vs. a cold storage tick
et.' The Denver Leader says
that the democrats will unite;
and p'edicts a landslide. Judg
I'arker will support the licU'l ;
ditto Judge Oeorge Gray, Yon
Yonson will pull off his coat.
Watterson will 'pat his paper in
the breach and bring in all tl)e
disaffected. Bird S. Coler says
that. "the ticket could not be
better." Murphy says that "the
ticket is entirely satisfactory to
him." Indeed, all democrats of
every stripe and variety are
crawling into the band wagon,
and in the language of the Rich
mond News,, "it is time for party
loyalty.'
The peoplu's nominee, Dannitte
II. Mays, has gained the first
d.'cision in the courts. Judge
Malone last Thursday decided
that the mandamus against the
committee would lie and the
committee was granted until the
27th inst., to make answer when
the case will be heard and de
termined upon its merits. Should
the decision be favorable to
Mr. Mfys and we are of tlie-
opinion that it will be the
committee will be ordered to
canvass the votes for jongress-
raau as returned by the inspec
tors of election and this being
done Mr. Mays will be declared
the nominee. It is a moral cer
tainty, however, that whatever
the decision of Judge Maloue
may be, the case will be appeal
eJ to the Supreu.e Court, aad aa
that tribunal has taken its U3ual
recess until October. it is hard
ly probable that the matter will
be finally adjudicated before the
election on November Sri. In
the meantime the people are be
coming more and more convers
ant with the methods adopted
by the committee to count Mr.
Mays out and make Mr. Kehoe
the nominee and they are deter
mined to resent emphatically
this intrusion of their rights.
Just as mi eht have been ex
pected, says the Lakeland News,
the convict lessees who are get
ting rich by grace of the blood
money from the " legalized slave
trade in thi3 state, are breaking
into various papers with inter
views in which they admit how
awfully tad those Georgians
are, but declare there is "notb
ing ot the kind in Florida."
Granting the truth of this as
sertion ar.d it is a big grant
it may be said that the present
system furnishes an opportuo.it y
for such abuses, anil is reason
sulficient for abolishing it. The
lessees and the papers they pay
to blow their hern, picture tie
convict camps as delightful
summer resorts, but as loi.g as
men v. el :or.-: death rather that)
n'inain in thm, and ;s lung a

Hearst's Independence League,
it seems, is to make an ef
fort to capture votes in the
South, and it is stated that
speeches will be made by the
nominees in Georiria, A-lamaba
and Florida. We'll he glad to
see the distinguished gentlemen
and to hear them talk, but real
ly, we think they will only
waste their time In coming to
Florida.
With 6even presidential can

great trouble in choosing which

ideas of government. F'.orkla

nominees, Bryan and Kern, and
trora present indications there
will be enough from other
States to malte the election of
tbese gentlemen sure.
Col. Toomer, who is now a
citizen of Florida, testified that,
he made the neat sum of $170,
000 from dealing in Georgia con
victs. In this day and time the
possession of money in large
chunks.excuses almost anything
and possibly, to some, it may
excuse those responsible tor the
horrible punishment and inhu
manity practiced by the convict
lessees of Georgia upon their
helpless charges, but jist as
sure as they live, a day of reck
oning is coming to them.
