On Monday afternoon Mr.. Web
ster B. Glotfelty, of Accident, was
accidentally shot with revolver by
his brother Lloyd, who is only a boy
of perhaps six years. Yesterday
Mr.. Ed. Mcmillan, of Accident, was
in Oakland and he stated that the
boys were engaged in cleaning re-
volver and after that was accom-
plished it was laid on table where
it was picked up by the younger Of
the two and discharged, the ball
entering the lower lip of Webster,
knocking out two teeth and imbed-
ding itself IN the neck, where it still
remains. The wound is not neces-

Mississippi leader. (Jackson, Miss.) 1892-1895, 1895-02-05
WHY JACKSON DIDN'T GET THE MIS-
SISSIPPI MILLS

The pay roll of the Wesson mills
amounts to some $4,000 week. Just
think of $4,000 being turned loose in
any one town in Mississippi By the
way the WeSSon mills would have been
located here, but for the fact that some
of the know-alls and grab alls wanted
the earth and the fullness thereof
Jackson Ners.
History and tradition have it that
when the late Col Ed. Richardson first
became the chief stakeholder in the
Mississippi Mills he desired to locate
them permanently at jackson, but up
on fully canvassing the subject, he
found Jackson stubbornly welded to
the saloon nuisance, and rather than
plant factory where the mill opera
tives would be subjected to such hurt
full decentralization, he finally deter
mined to make Wesson the permanent
location, where it was expressly pro-
vided in the town charter and all deeds
to real estate, that no Intoxicating Ii
quors should ever be sold. 1t was
friendship for liquor, the setting of a
higher estimate upon gin-mills than
upon sobriety, morality, honest indus
try and thrift, which lost Jackson the
Mississippi Mills, with its present week
ly pay roll of $4,000 week.
. Not so long ago, the News was argu-
ing with might and main, as the sa-
loonatics did in Col. Richardson's day,
that Prohibition would be the death
knell to the business interests of Jack
son. Let it compare the Jackson of
today with its licensed gin mills, with
the thrifty and growing town of Wes-
son, where liquor has never been Ii
censed for a single day, and see if it
isn't making about as great a donkey
of itself as did the aforesaid ''know -alls
and grab balls" years ago.
This is progressive age, Bro. Bel
lenger, and you must quit repeating
that old exploded ginmill chestnut
that Prohibition Injuries towns bust
ness interests, if you expect to keep up
with the progress and intelligence of
the times.

Colonel Warren S. Reese, of Alabama,
the Populist contestant for the seat OF
Senator Morgan, has struck upon
novel plan of exposing and emphaslz-
ing Democratic election rascality in
Alabama. He has carried to Washing
ton and is exhibiting to the Senators,
old John Washington. colored, as
specimen of the election judges ap-
pointed by the Democratic machine OF
Alabama to represent the opposition
and insure fair count and honest
election. Washington claims to be
nearly 90 years of age and seems proud
of the fact that he can neither read nor
write. Think of setting an old niger
like this to watch two expert white
Democratic ballot-box suffers, and
you have what the Democrats in Ala
bama call perfectly fair and honest
election. II is time for honest men OF
all parties to say such yillainy shall
cease.

While the school house is in course
of erection Prof. Garner is visiting his
old home on Topisaw, taking a much

that some people in North Mississippi

the law regulating their speed through
the corporate limits of towns alons
their line. If asking people to ODE!
the law is prosecuting them, then Will

Platform of the Prohibition Party of Mis-
sissippi, Adopted at jackson, June
9th. 1894.


9th. 1894.
The Prohibition Party of Mississippi,
in Convention assembled, acknowledge
ing Almighty God as the source of all
true government and His law as the
standard to which human enactments
must conform to secure the blessings
of peace and prosperity, present the
following declaration of principles:
LIST, We declare our allegiance to the
National Prohibition party and re-af-
firm our endorsement of the National
platform adopted at Cincinnati June
Both, 1892.
End, AS the ballot is the bulwark Of
the peoples liberties, we favor an in
telligent standard of suffrage and hon
esty and purity in all elections by the
people, and demand that all parties
shall be fairly represented on election
boards in this State.
3rd, We condemn, in unmeasured
terms, the spirit of mob violence which
prevails in this and other States, where
by many citizens have been put to a
cruel and speedy death without the
benefit of judge or jury or the oppor=
tunity to prove their innocence as
guaranteed TO Cnem ny lie SouSIiGu-
ton of the United States.
4th, We demand the repeal of the
United States Internal Revenue law au-
thorizing the issuance of Government
permits for the sale of liquor in Prohi-
bition territory.
9Th, In view of the serious and
alarming industrial and financial con
ditions of the country, we deem the
settlement of the currency question in
in accordance with the principles laid
down by the Prohibition party of ur
gent concern, second only in impor-
lance to the suppression of the liquor
traffic itself. "rhe money of the coun
try should consist ofgold, silver and pa
per, and be issued by the General Gov
eminent only, and in sufficient guam
tity to meet the demands of business
and give full opportunity for the EN-
ployment of labor. To this end an in
crease in the volume of money is de
manded. No individual or corpora
ton should be allowed to make an.
profit through its issue. 1t should bt
made legal tender for the payment o
all debts, public and private. Its vol
ume should be fixed at definite sun
per capita and made to increase will
1 our increasing population.
