To the Voters of Beat No. 1.

Inasmuch as this is the year when
the people of Mississippi, will be called
on to fill all the public offices, both
state and county for the term of four
years under our new constitution, it
behooves every tax payer and good
citizen to manifest an interest in these
matters. and say who shall be elected
to this or that office. As native OF
Madison COMMUNICATING the interest
and welfare of our county's affairs at
heart-it is my proud pleasure to sug
gest a man for Beat officer, whom
the taxpayers of Beat No. l, would do
we'll to consider. Surely this office of
Supervisor is one of the most impoI-
tant to be filed in our county. This
fact any intelligent or thinking man
will admit. The Board of Supervisors
should be men of financial ability
painstaking and true. By their order
is the tax payers money spent and the
business of the county conducted.
Therefore, we should place man in
this position who has made success
of his own business. One who is hon.
est, capable, liberal in his views but
not extravaganza, attentive to duty
and who would manage the financial
affairs of the county as he would his
private business, one whom we have
confidence in as a business man and
could trust. Such an one l recognize
in R. M. Caldwell, of this city. A
native of the grand old state of Ten
nessee, but resident of this county,
since his early manhood. save four
years that he gave to his country dur
ing the war of the rebellion, when he
served as high private in Writ Adams
cavalry. In him we recognize the stuff
from which successful men are made,
and what man can accomplishments
gle handed and alone-with no pater-
nal inheritance. in reaching the sum-
init of success. l offer him as candi-
date, not moving whether or not he
would accept the Office, but believing
we would honor ourselves and serve
our county best by electing him mem

Obitudru,

Died, on the 9th of February, 1895
near Canton. Miss, JOHN WHELAN
The deceased was born in Carlow
county, ireland, in the year 1888; re
moved from his native country in 1851
to the United States and settled in
Chicot comfy, Arkansas; resided there
about two years, then moved to Can
ton where he has since resided. Mr..
Whelan taught school for many years,
and many who received his instruc-
tions can testify to his competency and
faithfulness as a teacher. He was a
man of learning, being well versed in
the languages. He was man of con-
victions and honestly carried out what
he believed to be right. The writer
has known him for half century, and
always regarded him as an honest and
upright man, and we believe he was so
regarded by all who knew him. We
have some tokens of his friendship and
will keep them in remembrance of
him. He left number of relatives in
his native country none here to
mourn his loss.
May his ashes rest in peace, and
should any visit his grave in after
years, where the green grass may be
weaving a requiem over the sod that
covers his remains, they can truthfully
say, "Here lies an honest man." who,
as Pope says, sis the noblest work of
God" May we meet him again in a
higher and better state of existence,
where friendships are never severed, is
the prayer of the writer. j. R. P.
