The Republican party in congress,
unity in its party allegiance, exults
now that the democratic party is
house divided against itself, and looks
upon early triumph over it as being
assured. What good for herself can
Mississippi expect to accomplish by
efforts to weaken Mr.. Cleveland ad-
ministration? She owes him her alle-
glance. He had the right to look for
Democratic support, and not to appre-
bend assaults from those who were
represented in the convention that
nominated him. Even if she could
crush his administration by her oppo-
sition, she would only destroy the
Democratic party. Ii, notwithstand-
ing her opposition, MI. Cleveland
shall be sustained in his support of the
national Democratic platform, she
will have thrust upon her the benefits
OF a sound currency and reduced tariff,
in which, as cotton state, she is so
vitality interested, but she will stand in
the humiliating attitude of disaffection
towards the national party and lsola-
ton from it. She voluntarily cast in
her fortunes with that party. and she
has been faithfully and ably encour-
aged by it in the work of her own re-
demption. Will she now go into affil-
iation with the Republican party,
which so nearly trampled out her life?
Can she hope for anything in an alli-
ance with the wildcat western states
and their isms and heresies, after her
long and staunch adherence to the
principles and policy of the Democ-
racy?

An outrageous Transaction

At its meetlng in Green wood the Mis-
sissippi Press Association was inform
ed that Marshall & Bruce. Geo. ID.
Barnard Il Co.. and r. Il L. A. Ennis,
had been indicted by the grand jury
at Aberdeen for entering into con-
spiracy to combine and control the
blank book and stationery work of the
seventy-hve counties in this State.
1t was asserted that representatives
OF the three concerns named above,
met at Memphis and apportioned the
work, naming the counties of the pool
each would take, the plan being that
al would bid, to avoid suspicion, two
to present high bids, the other low
bid in certain counties, according to
agreement and vice versa.
If this can be proven. and an inves.
legation of the bids would decide it,
these outside concerns ought to be
driven disgraced from Mississippi, a
State they have bled great while,
often charging most outrageous prices
for their work, and contributing moth
ing whatever in the way of taxes to-
ward the support OF its government.
They have. no viewer, left numerous
tokens of their regards with many of
the officials in the way of gold pens,
fancy paper weights. pretty inkstands,
rulers, pencils and other neat and
handy little articles of remem brance.
1t is certainly time for the papers to
open fire on Marshall & Bruce. Geo.
barnard & r. & L. A. Ennis. II they
have violated the statute laws as char
ged. Boards OF Supervisors should not
allow them to present bid in the
State. They ought to be driven from
it. and the Press Convention has a
dopted resolutions with that object in
view. The publishers of Mississippi

fight. Observation-Disclosures.

Mr.. Heber Craft of McComb City,
spent the day at the capital. Mr. Craft
is neither a politician, an office holder
nor an office-seeker. He is man of
great reading and splendid observation
who has views of his own on the So
cial and political questions OF the day.
This being true, the New Orleans
Picayune correspondent sought an in
terview with him, with the following
result:
What is your estimate, Mr.. Craft,
of the administration of President Gle
velandP
"Mr. Cleveland was the nominee of
the people. His political views and
principal had been distinctly avowed,
and were well understood. He was
not favored by politicians-especially
Southern politicians but the over
whelming vote by which he was elect
ed was the approval of those views
and principals by the people. His
election was curious, If not unprece-
denied in the history of politics. He
went into the white house backed by
large majority in the house of rep
resentatives and nominally Demo-
cratic majority in the senate. The
democratic party was in power, with
the largest opportunity to test its Ca
pacity and craftsmanship.
Mr. Cleveland has stood consis-
tently. FIRMLY, boldly and answering
lyupon the principles and policy which
he was elected to represent. The
house of representative sustained him.
The senate did not. So far as he is
concerned he has done his duty. II
the administration is prove failure,
the responsibility rests with the senate.
The result is yet to be known. The
people wait If Democratic senators
shall continue to be swayed by person
al jealousy and prejudice, and con-
tiDue to lose sight OF national interest
and party supremacy in the prosecu-
ton of personal feeling and private
interest, it can hardly be doubted that
the verdict of the coming elections
will be that the party has been ''tried
in the balance and found wanting"
Have you observed the fight that is
being made upon this administration
in Mississippi, and what do you think
Of the samep
"The fight that is being made in
by Democrats, upon Mr.
administration is most I'M
fortunate, unprovoked and ill-advised.
When men go into a national organi-
sation they are certainly bound to
stand by and support what that organ
cation does. Local interests. local
preferences and local issues must be
to the judgment and the
will of the majority when expressed
according to the rules and methods of
that organization. The good of ma
tional parties is to obtain the benefit
In national politics of national organi-
zation, and it is hard TO conceive how
public men Of state representing, In /
The national legislature, the party In I
hat state to which they belong, can
orget or disregard the fealty which
hey owe to their national party. Fac
ions and discussions in the party as to
rational issues must bring disaster. 1

A careful survey of Tishomingo
county would show more and better
farms than in years past; more fine
stock, more corn, more people wearing
good clothes; better educated young
men and women, and better state of
society.
Farmers of Tishomingo should pay
more attention to the cultivation OF
grasses and stock raising. There Is
nothing that contributes more to pros
perity than improved. high bred hogs,
cattle and horses; and these can be had
only where good forage crops are
grown.
A ripple of excitement was created
in luka Saturday evening by a squad
Of armed officers who went out in the
western part of the town, to capture
some wild caters, who were reported
to be in that locality with good sup
ply of corn whiskey. The officers
captured key containing some Is or
20 gallons OF whiskey and brought it
back to town, but the party who had
it in charge made their escape
The farmer who lives at home and
boards at the same place, is the most
independent man to be found. He cares
little about the financial or any other
governmtal question, SO far as he is
concerned personally. Tishomingo's
farmers have realized this fact and as
aresult more meat is being raised, and
an increased acreage of ceareals has
been planted. This is the only safe
method for the farmer.

FAMOUS ARCHERS.
Stories of Wonderful Skill With Row and
Arrow.

Stories of Wonderful Skill With Row and
Arrow.
The expression drawing long bow"
does not of necessity mean the telling
of a falsehood. 1t sometimes refers to a
wonderful story, which may be true
enough, but which is SO marvellous as
to require firm trust in the veracity
of the narrator to enable the hearer to
believe it. Some of the longest bows of
this sort have been drawn about bows
and arrows.
These stories began long ago. Virgil,
in the "Enoid," tells of four aTchers
who were shooting for prize, the mark
being pigeon tied by cord to the
mast of ship. The first man hit the
mast, the second cut the cord, and the
third shot the pigeon as it few away.
The fourth archer, having nothing left
to shoot, drew his bow and sent his ar
row flying toward the sky with such
speed that the friction of the air set the
feathers on fire, and it swept on, like a
meteor, to disappear in the clouds.
The stories told of Robin Hoods
archery, illustrated by his wonderful
performance as Locksley in Scott's
''Ivanhoe," are also a decided strain
upon sensible PERSONS credulity. The
famous story Of William Tell, doubted
by many persons, is believed by others
to have foundation of fact There was
Dane named Foke of whom the same
story is told, and William of Cloudes-
ley, an Englishman, is said to have shot
an apple from his sons head merely to
show his eXpertness.
Most stories of bows and arrows re
late to the accurate aim of the archers,
but Frenchman, Blaise de Vigenere,
tells one that shows the tremendous
force with which an arrow may be pro-
PEELED if the bow be strong and long
enough. According to his own account
of the matter, he saw Barbarossa, a
Turk, admiral Of a ship called the
Grand Solyman, send an arrow from
his bow right through cannon ball. -
