try and Europe -such as BaiWeF, James, Dickens,

THE CONTEST.

The election is now but little more than
week off, The first monday ard tuesday
in Nov will decide whether Mississippi is to
occupy herpresent position or, casting off the
rsprosch that now rests upon her fair name
IN the eyes Of The civilized world, to take
her stand along with her sister states. To
accomplish the latter result, nothing is wan
ting, we believe, but union and energy upon
the part Of the Bond-payers. Let them but
come up IN one uni,ed phalanx to the polls
and The state will be redeemed from that
unwiss policy upheld BY it's present rulers

OUR NEW VOLUME.

We commence this week the second
volume of the Advertiser. Twelve months
have passed by since we embarked in the
business Of publishing paper at this place
During that time it has been our constant
desire to present our readers with an &C
ceptable sheet. How far we have met their
expectations, they alone can decide. We
trust, however, that we have not wholly
failed in the accomplishment of this object
When we recur 10 The unfavorabe circum
stances under which the Advertiser was
commenced, we are gratiied al the measure
ofsuccess which has attended our Efforts.
and our thanks are due to those who have
extended their patronage TO US. We have
encountered the difficulties and expense OF
establishing press here, and We hope that
our friends will lend their d in sustaining
usby some exertion to extend our subscrip-
ton list. II is our intention, should we
meet with sufficient encouragement, 70
make such additions to our stock Of tyne g.
materials as will contribute 10 the improve
execution and appearance Of our paper.

that this Of itself admitting the law anthorl.
Zing their issuance 10 have been invalid,
legally binds them to pay back The money
thus obtained. That they did thus give
their sanction, we propose 10 show by q
few facts. The bonds were executed 10
June 1893, and sold in August following
The Legislature met in January 1889. The
sale was then made known TO that BODY.

"Contrary however, TO the expectation Of
every one familiar with the distressed con-
dI'ion OF the stock market, negotiation Of
five millions Of the bonds was affected by
the commissioners, highly advantageous to
the State and the bank, and in accordance

m'ssioners themselves, and bringing timely
aid TO an embarrassed community

50 much for The action of,he Legislature.
Did the people approve this? Let us see.
After the approval Of the sale Of the bonds
by this Legislature, a general election
came off in November 1889. This was The
same Legislature, too, that passed the Sup.
Elemental Charter the year before. Ifthere
had been any thing wrong in the creation
and sale Of the bonds, the people had now
a chance to speak out, when the Governor
and Representatives presented themselves
Tor recollection. Ifthere was any design
TO set them aside as illegal, during the can.
vass prior to this elections was the time for
cur consiitation-loping anti bondsrs to have
brought the matter before the people; for a
portion Of the money was yet unpaid. Gov.
