The Summit Fair.

The editor of the LEADER ran down
to the Summit Fair last Saturday
morning and spent several hours very
pleasantly inspecting the various eX-
hibits there to he seen. AS usual Mr..
and Mrs. Dewitt Lea and DR.. r. L
Hart led in the finest general display
of farm, dairy and horticultural pro-
ducts, Mr.. Leafs coming first. The
excellence and variety of both dis
plays must have appeared mdrvei6us
to all not familiar with the vast and
varied productive power of an intel
ligently managed South Mississippi
farm. Not the least striking among
the Lea exhibits were many samples
of tempting preserves, elegant butter,
and specimens of needle work, ETC.,
by Mrs. Lea, together with some beau
tifully executed drawings by Miss
Ida Lea, all bespeaking that retired
and cultivated taste peculiar to the
Southern lady. We regret that lack
of space prevents our giving list of
the displays of Mr.. and Mrs. Lea and
DR.. Hart, each of which was worthy
of an extended notice.
The exhibits of poultry and stock
on the grounds were both interesting
and creditable, but some of these hat
been removed when we arrived. 4
number of fine bloOded horses anC
colts, cows, hogs, cheep, etc, were t,
| be seen.
Though laboring under many dis
cOuragements, the managers are to b(
congratulated upon the decided sue.
cess they scored in this their third an.
nual Fair. Owing to its gambling
feature, the Fair has been severely
censured and boycotted by some good
people, but the gambling feature has
been eliminated as far as it is practi-
cable, and as now conducted, the Fair
is deserving of the encouragement
and support of all farmers, stock rails
ers and horticulturists, and is credit
to the public spirit, energy and enter
prise of those who maintain it.
The writer had the pleasure of greet
ing many valued friends and acquaint-
ances, and feels especially indebted
to DR.. Otken, Mr.. w. p. Cassidy and
Bro. Bonney of the Sentinel for ap.
preciated courtesies.

\ Saloon scheme.

IT. is reported and the report of
,hc LcvCc Committee gives color to
u that II combination has been form
eel between the delegates from the
Delta aud those representing other
whisky counties. to- provide in the

This is movement directly in the
iutch st of the saloon men of the
State, brought forward under the

! 1t Is not true, per Sc, that any coun-
| " in this State is compelled to endure
the evils of the liquor traffic within
its limits, except by the consent of &
majority of its legal voters. If it bt
argued. as is true. that a majority OF
the voters in nearly every wet county
in the State are negroes, and that the
moral, intelligent white element is
pOwericss to vote out the evil under
existing conditions, we answer, why
did the white representatives of those
counties in the Constitutional Con
vcnticn vote a few weeks ago to con
tinue this curse upon them
We haven't the space at this writing
to expose this scheme in all of its
falscnesS. Suffice it to say in conclu-
sion that no man in the Convention
who voted for the majority report of
the Committee on Temperance and
liquor Traffic few weeks ago can
vote for 1T without qualification or
something worse. That report, which
WAS sustained by vote of ~ to II,
SAID In our Judgment it is imprac-
ticable and inopportune to bring the
subject of either liquor traffic or pro-
hibition hcfore the Convention"
ProlIibitionists accepted that vote
as settlement, in gocl faith, of the
Prohibition and liquor question ESQ
far as this Convention is concerned)
and they cannot regard as less than
the most fragrant hypocrisy and
trcachcfy, any such action as that
proposed by the Levee Committee.

We can't agree with the Grenada
Sentinel in all it said last week in de-
Tense of Senator George, but we do
agree with it that he should not be
held responsible for all of the delin-
quencies of the Constitutional Con-
vention simply because his influence
more than that of any other one man
led to the calling of the Convention.
Though not all we would have had it,
it is more than apparent to us already,
and should be to every one of intelli-
gence and candor, that the new Con-
stitution will be an immense improve
ment on the old. AS for holding Sen
atOr George responsible for the mis-
takes of others, that is both unjust
and unnecessary. Heaven knows he
will have enough to answer for with
out that.

Baltimore at 7 o'clock yesterday morning
for Norfolk, Va, on her regular trip,

A warrant vas sworn out yesterday by
Arvllla Bigelow against A. D.. Bigelow,
charging him with bigamy. 1t appears
that Bigelgw was married to Arvilla at
Cascade on Jan. 10, 1887, and that since
that time they have lived together as man
and wife. But report says that a woman
named Melissa Bigelow, claiming to be
the wife of Bigelow, came from the east
and has threatened to make it warm for
the much married man. In order to ap-
pease Melissa a divorce was secured from
Arvilla last Monday. 1t is said that
Bigelow promised Melissa to get a di-
vorce from Arvilla and then wed Melissa.
Then in order to appease Arvilla, it is
said. he made the same promise to her.
A marriage license issued yesterday to A.
d. Bigelow and Melissa Bigelow is suf1-
cient evidence that Arvilla has been left
out in the cold, and this may be the cause
of the arrest. Bigelow was bound over
by Judge Race in the sum of $500 to ap.
pear at p. m. today. 1t is a much mixed
case and may lead to some serious com
plicatiOns.
