Jefferson county it will be their own
fault. The harvest is plentiful, but
the laborers are few. So let us put
men in the field to work.
The speeches were about the same
as at other places. The Doctor has
improved wonderfully. l was told
that his speech had a good affect and
a number of men expressed themselves
as being satisfied that the principles
of the Peoples party are right, and
that they would vote the ticket on the
day of the election.
Col. Hooker's speech was the same
old thing. 1t appears to me that
thinking men could see that his effort
is to keep alive the sectional hate and
bitterness between the North and the
South.

from oar county was recently inter

saying the Peoples party does not
amount to much where he lives. Why.
the Hon. gentlemen must haze been a
little off that day. He is further quo
ted as saying that were it not for
the influence of half dozen men Co

The Democratic machine shelyed
Hon. Clarke Lewis, a representative
farmer and allianceman and a faithful
and efficient Congressman, with not
a taint of suspicion about his official
record, and nominated in his place
the Hon. Fl. ID. Money, a Washington
lawyer, with his questionable Hunt
ington railroad record which we have
ventilated in these columns. The
Democratic machine ought to be re-
buked, aud tue people Of the 4th dis
trict are the ones to do it.

Editor Mississippi Leader:

Editor Mississippi Leader;
have just learned from a reliable
source that it was estimated that there
were 1900 people at the. Democratic
barbecue at Monticello on the 10th
inst, and that 400 Democratic badges
we're procured for the occasion, and
after all the little boys that could be
induced to wear n badge were fitted
up and an earnest effort made to in
duce Peoples party voters to attire
themselves with Democratic badges,
quite number of badges were left on
hand not called for. As the editor Of
the Press remarked after the Peoples
party held their meeting, remark
that the great Democratic meeting ii
over and Monticello still stands in its
accustomed place. j. w. Ross.

ON THE BRINK.
An Explosion In Germany Possible
at Any Moment
The Chancellor Holds n Conference with
the Emperor-Tbe Former viii with
drpw the BiIi or ResiGn-Hints off
Dissoi ution Of the Reichstag.

BERLIN, Dec. 12.-Tr,uble is expected
In Germany This city talks OF nothing
but the rebuff suffered by Won Csprivi
over the army bill, owing TO the atti-
tude OF the center party. The chancsl-
lor's reply, limiting at a dissolution of
the reichstag, comes under the category
Of good news TO his opponents, who
would be returned with a sweeping
majority. Caprivi's retirement is loud
ly talked Of II is regarded as q neces-
sity, as the chancellor is entirely out of
touch with the people. Count Won
Gutenberg. Herr MIGUEL. Loewe, Gen.
Won llaenke, Count Won Waldersee, are
names on the tip of every tongue az
likely TO be his successor, but the last
named does not desire the post He
would accept II only under pressure.
The town Is full OF rumors. Une Il
that the imperial message dissolving
the reichstag will be read Monday; an
other that the army bill will be put
into effect without consultation with
the rcichstag. Public feeling is that
we are on the verge of an explosion,
particularly IL the kaiser insists on re-
RENE bered that the kaiser formerly
expressed determination TO keep
Prince Bismarck in power in spite of
anything that might happen.
History repeats itself One Thursday
night speaking with a group of liberal
deputies, Count Won Caprivi said that in
any case he would not retire from the
chancellorship. lie had apparently for
gotten the words spoken in October:
"Ich stehc und falle init der wort
lege."
Zig surprises are at hand. among
which the fall Of Caprivi will be the
least
In round numbers, the opposition TO
the army bill may be estimated as fol-
lows: Center. 1909 votes; progressists, 81
votes; socialists, 85 votes; democrats,
10 votes; total, eel votes. On the other
hand, 1t is possible that the bill may re.
ceive the support Of 66 conservatives, Of
whom 81, however, are wavering; OF IS
liberal conservatives, OF whom IL are
doubtful, and Of ~ national liberals all
of whom demand a modification Of the
measure.
Caprivi was unwell Sunday. but he
nevertheless held a consultation with
the conservative leaders He attributed
much Of the opposition 10 the army bill
To the Ahlwardt scandal. Sunday even
ing he was summoned TO the imperial
palace 10 confer with the kaiser. At q
late hour Sunday night 1t was reported
that he will withdraw the military bill
or tender his resignation.
