The truth is that the remedy
for the hard times is not to he

State affairs. The iniquitous
tariff, a creature of federal
islation, is making our burden
heavy. Since Hampton was

MR. CRISP’S COMMITTEES.
Speaker Crisp had for his
Christmas present a chorus of
condemnation from the people
and the press. But few wished
him a “merry Christmas” and
there were many who gave him
severe critic ism To our way of
thinking Mr. Crisp deserved it
all. Instead of presenting har
mony and peace as a Christmas
remembrance to the Democratic
4
party, his blunders, the out
growth of his partisanship, have
brought discord and forebodings
of defeat.
In the appointment of the |
committees of Congress he has
not only shown bad judgment,
but it is evident that his desire
was to reward his friends for
political services, even though it
be against the wishes of the
Democracy and the interests of i
the party. His displacing Mr. i
Mills from the committee on'
ways and means and side-track- j
ing him to an unimportant com-!
niittee was a piece of spite
against an honorable competi
tor, worthy of the small politi-.
cian, not of thegreat statesman.; tr , ;
