The Amusing Predicament of a

"Eight minutes"
Have got time to run across the

to them. Have got time to get it?'
''How long will it take you?" | asked.
"Oh, about five minuteS.''
"What! Five minutes just to run
across the street and buy some candy?"
'Weii, maybe | could do it in four

That's so. Some conf ectioners are
awfully slow fellows. Now knew one
once who couldn't do up 2 cents worth
of candy in four minutes-only got half
a cent for whole minutes work. See.
But some of them can Go up a whole

Judge was noted for two things: For

being plucky and courageous under

bought in Canada for sll0. Smaller
agricultural tools, such IS spades,
shovels and forks, after paying from
35 to IS per cent ad valorem, are
sold in Cannda as cheap or cheaper

are calculated TO set the American
farmer to thinking about the alleged

Cold Under The Pine Trees

Who ever thought the pine straw
on which the rabbit hunters clip and
slide about would become an article
OF value3 Who dreamed that it
would become the weapon through
which the South would win her in
dependence Of the most grasping
And infamous trust of modern days?
And yet it is likely it will do that
very thing. The pine straw bagglng
sent out from North Carolina strikes
us Of beng perfect substitute for
jute bagging. 1t has sood every test
of fire, water and hooks, and has
proven its superioty. Samples of
it have now gone forward to the
New York Exchange and and it will
doubtless win approval there, The
Count sends out annually s5,000,OOO
to buy jute bagging. The use Of
pine straw bagging will keep this
vast amount Of money at home, and
will convert what has been worthless
rubbish INTO valuable product. The
bagging trust will be blessing in
disguise fit brings about the gener-
p manufacture and use Of pine straw
baggingas, in our opinion. it will
undoubtedly do. Whenever you

TO the DEMOCRACY or
MISSISSIPPI.

call your attention to the fact
that another campaign is upon US,
and 1t becomes our duty to take part
10 the election of a Chief Executive
to serve the people of this country
tor the ensuing four years.
The obligations which every pa
triotic citizen owes to bis State and
himsels should prompt him to ap-
propriate sufiielency of his time to
secure success to that political party
which lnsures the greatest amount
otgood to the greatest number, and
elect to Office those who III his can
did and sober judgment will best
subserve the common interest of all
in this great and growing country
in which we live.
a Republican form of government
is one of the people, by the people,
and no more inspiring spccticle can
be presented than that Of tho clti-
zen earnestly and honestly engaged
in = sincere effort to do that which
wlll'be promotive of the public good
and secure mon of honesty, ability
and courage to make and administer
the laws, and those who aid in the
election Of the Democritic candidates
tor president and vice president will
thereby demonstrate that they ap-
preclate the great privileges which
they enjoy and the services of faith
full public servants.
In addition to having at the head
of the Democratic ticket one Of the
ablest and truest men upon this con.
tlnent to inspire confidence and en-
thuslasm, there are some questions
involved IN the canvass which ought
to energize and move every Missis-
sipplan to do what he can to perpetu.
ATE the power of the Democratic
party, party whose policy has al
ways been TO make the burdens of
government as ht as possible,
exactlng the smallest amount in the
way OF taxation consistent with The
public welfare, and at the same time
Democrats we may have had among
ourselves in thepast upon side issues, !,
and remembering the many wrongs
visited us and our State by this party
when in power, fall into line and 90
to work for the success of our ticket.
and we will not only see a rousing
majority atthe ensuing election, but
will be united and ready for action
in the future.
1t is therefore hoped that the va-
rlons County Executive Committees
will at once take steps in accordance
with the resolutions heretofore q.
dopted by the State Executive Com.
mittee and make their local organi.
cations as thorough as practicable,
and put themselves in line not only

but the committees of their respec.
