AN ELECTOR WITHDRAWS
FOR THE PURPOSE OF CASTING HIS
FORTUNES WITH THE
THIRD PARTY.

JACKSON, MISS, July 21.-The third
party is making a determined stand in
Mississippi and is going to fight for
everything in sight. Frank Burkitt,
state alliance lecturer who advised the
alliance to stand by the old democratic
ship, and who sought to be and was
nominated elector for the state at large,
has withdrawn few days since, without
giving any definite reason. His paper,
The Chickasaw Messenger, today, how
ever, leaves no doubt but that he has
gone over, boots and baggage, to the
third party. The same paper contains a
card from j. H. Jamison, president of
the state alliance, who has passed for
weeks as a candidate for the democratic
nomination in the fourth district, with
drawing his candidacy as subject to the
democratic party, and roundly abusing
both old parties, which of course means
that he will make the race as third
party man.
1t now appears that nearly all Of the
people who support the Ocala platform,
but have heretofore acted with the DEM
Gratis, will vote for Weaver. OF course
they will stand no chance to give the
state to Weaver, but may prove trouble
some in the fourth ard fifth congression-
al districts.
The contest for the democratic nomi-
nation in the first district between John
Allen and Fl. l.. Muldrow; assistant Sec
rotary of the interior under Cleveland, is
waxing warm, and victory is claimed by
both. The primaries will take place on
the 30th of the month.

Political Speaking.

Last Monday, politically speaking, was
a ''red hot day in Dawson. The clans
gathered together at an early hour and,
before the sun was up many hours, our
streets were filled with an anxious throng
intent upon but one thing, to hear the
speaking at the opera house.
The ''fusilade' commenced at 10
O clock, and it was running fight until
l O'Clock, when the meeting adjourned
to 3 O'clock in the afternoon, lasting
near unto the night.
Judge j. H. Query, Col. j. W. Wal
ters, of Albany, and Col. Jas. NJ. Griggs
were the principal speakers in the morn
ing. Il was tit for tat through much
of the speaking, and the casualties were
small in proportion to the amount of am
munition expended.
In the afternoon Col. Walters again
spoke, followed by Hon. Ben E. Russell,
of cambridge. This speaking pleased
1.-THE boys and they gave vent to their
feelings in eXhilirating shouts.
What was gained and what was lost by
this meeting the future can only reveal,
but we will crown with the laurel each
speaker as he weari ed through the hours
of hot summer day.
At the close of the meeting a demo-
cratic club was organized by over two
hundred names being enrolled, with
Capt. j. A. Laing as president, and Col.
Il. r. Marlin, secretary.

Death Loves a shining Mark.

In the death of Mr.. z. A. Crittenden,
son of Hon. r. F. Crittenden, which took
place at ShellmaD, Thursday, July p,
1892, Dawson as well as Shellman, lost a
young man who was bright example of
all that which is elevating in a pure and
consistent life. Mr.. Crittendans quiet
and unassuming disposition carried with
in it heart large enough to win for
himself the love and esteem of all who
knew him. Modest to great degree,
nevertheless he, in his every day life
gave evidence of a beauty of character
that was beautiful to behold His relig
ious character was of that kind that did
not reach after the praise of men, out in
his humility his heart was all the time
reaching after the Savior in whom he
trusted.
Dawson never had before in it death
more deplored and lamented than his,
for he won to himself the confidence and
love of all cigsses of our people.
His place here will be hard to fill, now
that he has gone, hut the joyful antici-
patton of meeting him again in a fairer
and better world than this, encourages
the hearts of those who are crushed UNI
der this great bereavement
He died at home surrounded by all of
his loved ones, and his closing hours were
peaceful, gently falling asleep in hopes
of glorious resurrection. Many hearts
are drawn towards him in the words of
the poet who sweetly wrote, when ''pass-
ing under the rod himself
''Green be the turf above thee,
Friend of my better days,
None knew thee but to love thee,
None named thee but to praise"
To each member of the household, that
he made so happy during his brief stay
here, the sympatbies of our entire peo-
pie are extended, and long will we keep
in memory the virtues which adorned
the character of Mr. H. A. Crittenden.
At the time of his death he was one of

Well, he tells mighty good story
which happened he said in his baili-

A knotty case was on trial for several
days. The county had been very much
disturbed by the differences between the
democrats and the bird partyites.
Finally the case was given to the jury
late in the afternoon. No verdict being
reached the judge left the jurors debat-
ing on the merits of the case.
The next morning he asked if a YER
dict had been reached, and was answer
ed in the negative Several times the
question was asked and the same an
swer was given.
The day wore on and another night
was about to begun.
Wearied out with waiting, the judge
called the jurors out and ranged them
in front of him.
Gentlemen" said he, lis there any
likelihood of your reaching a verdict
soon?"
"No, jedge, we can't git tergether, y
said one of the most determined looking
of the twelve.

there any point of evidence troubling
you?"
