Our United States Senator.
Yazoo Herald

Mississippi may felicitate herself upon
securing General Georges services at
Washington, but she will lose his extensive
judicial knowledge and clear, vigorous
mind on the Supreme bench. His election
will give entire satisfaction to the people of
the State, and will create no ill-feeling in
the breast of the defeated candidates.
Hon. Ethel Barksdale's letter of with
drawl, is a most patriotic document, and
worthy of the gentleman who wrote it.
There is no one more fitted to fill the high
est position who has worked more faith
fully, or who deserves more from the Demo
cratic party; and it will be long before We,
in Yazoo, forget who came to our assistance
and so ably and fearlessly defended the
people of our county during the past can
yass.
Honorable o. r. Singleton, who has so
well represented this district for years, his
legions of friends in our county, and his
constituents have the highest appreciat ion
of his capacity, honesty and integrity.

Pontotoc Democrat.
We have always been a Lamar man. The
people of Mississippi sent him to represent
them in the United States Senate. That
body is now in session. We think he should
be there at his post instead Of at Jackson
with the Mississippi Legislature. Does it
not look reasonable that he should Our
Legislature is competent to elect United
States Senator without his diction or assis-
lance. Mississippi expects every man to
stay in his place and do his duty.

Judge George, the Senator Elect.

NatcheZ Democrat.
In the person OF Judge George the State
will have a representative of fine ability,
of conservative and national views, and of
the most indomitable energy of character
and strength of purpose. He will reAect
dhe true sentiments of the people of the
State, and exert an influence in the national
councils wtioh will be advantageous to the
best interests of the South While we con-
graduate the newly-elected Senator upon
the recognition of his services by the Leg
islature of the State foF which he has done
so much, we can also congratulate the peo-
pie of the State upon the choice of this true
and tried servant of its people to a position
in which he will be the equal of any Sena-
tor from the South.
Greenwood Flag
Judge George is about fifty-four years
old; was born in Mississippi, studied law
under our present Circuit Judge, VIM.
Cothran, served one or two terms in the
Lower branch of the State Legislature, was
. appointed Reporter for the Supreme Court,
was Chairman of the Democratic Executive
Committee in the famous campaign of 1875,
was appointed and confirmed Judge OF
the Supreme Court in 1878, and took his
seat as Chief Justice in May last. His per
sonal manner is very plain, and not special
fee of United States Senator is a tribute to
his great ability and valuable public SER
vices We should have stated, he has al
ways been Democrat.

Judge J. z. George, of the Supreme

TaT par oil L. L
well known that the journal was the zeal
Gus friend and supporter of Mai. Barksdale
in the Senatorial contest, and while it very
naturally feels some disappointment over
his defeat, it is nevertheless capable of a
free and generous recognition of the pre-
eminent fitness of Judge George for the
exalted position to which he has been
chosen. In point of ability he ranks
second to no man in the State, while his
devotion TO Democratic principles and the
valuable services he has rendered the party
in the past makes him highly deserving OF
any honor the Democracy of Mississippi
could confer upon him.
Meridian Mercury.l
The Senatorial contest has ended, and,
turiousiy, in the defeat of the aspirant who
has led by handsome plurality since it
began. Such an ending has an unnatural
appearance, is unnatural and wrong, so
long as it confessedly stands out that Banks
dale is an eminently proper man to have
been sent to the United States Senate from
eminent capabilities, high moral attributes
and eminent services. The proper and lust
solution of the question has been, all the
time, after the fair trial which should have
been considered ended days ago, to have
retired the weaker pretenders and given
the prize to Barksdale, As it is, he has
been sacrificed to the irresistible logic of
irresistible obstinacy. 1t does not alter the
case that the Legislature has elected one of
the first men of the State.
