A KEOIEST.

We are approaching the close of the
old year and the beginning of the new.
1t is the season when a great many
persons are deciding on the list of
newspapers and periodicals they will
take for the ensuing II months, Gull
ing out some and adding others. 1t is
the season of all others when good
and effective work can be done by the
friends of reform papers in circulating
them, and this brings us to our re-
quest. We desire to request and earn
estly urge every single reader of THE
LEADER who believes in the principles
1t champions, to make a special effort
to send us, before Jan. 1st, one or more
new subscribers. We have set our
mark for a thousand new subscribers
by the beginning of the New Year, and
unless you help us in the way indica-
ted, we can not reach it. When you
read this do not pass it over or throw
the paper aside and assume that it
is not addressed to YOU, for it is, if
you are in truth a friend of prohibi-
ton and all that is best in government.
THE LEADER is the one and only pa
per in Mississippi which has stood and
still stands firm, first, last and all the
time for the complete suppression of
the beverage liquor traffic, regardless
the men or political parties which
stand in the way of the consummation
of such a policy. We expect to fight
our way to final victory on this line.
There are many evidences that the eff
forts of the paper are telling, but it is
not doing 1.-THE of what it could
and would do, if every friend would
interest himself or herself in circulat-
ing it among the people.
We are offering number of excel
lent clubbing combinations to subscri-
bers, and in addition to these, from
now until Jan. 1st, we offer that splen-
did family periodical, the Home and
Farm, one year FREE, to all subscribers
paying years subscription to THE
LEADER.
Now friends, reformers. all at it and
let us hear from you.

The LEADER and said that he could OBJ
tain no defiiate assurance from the
Governor about the pardon, but was
led to the conclusion from the general
tenor of his conversation that he would
grant the padon when y months had
been served out, at most, and he rather
believes the pardon will be granted by
Christmas or New Year. Judge Chris

we'll pleased with the pleasant and
courteous reception given him by Gov.
