TGlobe-Democrat.l

The Rev. DR.. Daniel Dorchester, in
charge of Indian schools, is q very dig
nitied old gentleman. lie halls from
Massachusetts, possesses culture, but is
only by degrees acquiring familiarity
with the breezy West. The successive
surprises which DIR. Dorchester en-
counters affords his intimate friend,
Senator Dawes, much amusement. The
latest experience of the Doctors relates
to conversation between him and a
certain Western Senator The latter
was arguing some Indian school prop
osition with off.hand earnestness. But
the reverend gentleman couldn't see il
as the Senator did.
'Why, d-n II, man. said the Sena-

chester drew himself up with freezing
dignity, and, in tone of crushing re-
proof, said

a few seconds, and then broke out

THE RIGHT TALK.


Aberdeen EXamlner
Before you cast ballot at the pri-
mary election on the 14th of June ex-
pressiye of your preference in the mat
ter of Congressional nominee, compel
the candidates to align themselves on
the question of supporting the River
and Ilarbor Bill. The county of Mon
roe is more interested in the improve
ment of the Tombigbee river than in
any other measure upon which her
people can with any hope of a hearing
appeal to Congress. Its easy and safe
navigation will regulate the freight
rates upon every railroad that pierces
tho county, and with its channel in
good and safe condition for steamboat
and barge navigation at fair stage of
water, we can expect to See its coasts
in the next few years lined with iron
furnaces, foundries, and other indus
trial establishments that will afford
lucrative home markets for everything
that our farmers can produce.
Make each candidate pledge himself
to work at all times and seasons If
elected for liberal appropriations for
the improvement Of the Tombigbee
river, and for the passage of the River
and Harbor Bill containing such APP
preparations, for the reason that no
separate bill for our own river can
ever be passed, and for the further rea-
son that we should be generous and
just to others if we expect to be gen.
erously and justly dealt with by them.
The Tombigbee is the only stream
of any importance in the United States
that is not now receiving attention and
aid from the Federal Treasury, al
though the people of its valley are con-
tributing as heavily to the gatherers
of import and internal revenue taxes
as any equal number of people in
America.

DELEGATE AT LARGE.
The BOYS Take a Hand,

Whereas, The Constitutional Con-
vention being now close at hand, and
having the welfare of our State at
hand and desiring that Mississippi's
ablest men should represent her in the
coming convention, and
Whereas, Prof. Edward Mayes is a
gentleman in whom the people of the
State may well repose their trust and
confidence and be sure that neither
will bo misplaced; therefore be it
Resolved by the assembled law
classes of 1890 and 1891, That we
recommend our Chancellor and Pro-
fessor of Law, the lion. Edward
Mayes, to the people of the State as a
man of high social, moral and intellect
ual standing, a man of decided
opinions, firm and bold in the EXPOSE
tions of his beliefs. an earnest, thought
ful and logical speaker scholar of
cnviable rank and a lawyer of pro-
found and extensive knowledge in all
branches of his profession. Further
be it
Resolved, That we ask the people
ofthe State, and especially the lawyers
who have graduated under Prof.
Mayes' instructions, to use their innu-
ence to elect him to the Constitutional
Convention from the Statc-at large !;
and, lastly, be it
Resolved, That the State will, If she
elects Mr.. Mayes to the convention, do
herself honor by having a man OF such
brilliant attainments and massive in
tcllect in the service of the State in the
Hall of the Constitutional Convention.
