Down in M1SSlSS1ppl the pOpuHSto dlc holding state convention today, to nom mate candidates for state offices. They expect to win through democratic dis sensions, but are fated to disappont- ment. The fact is, there is no excuse for the existence of populism in Mississippi. The free silver democratic majority there is populistic enough for all practical pur- poses.-Memphis Scimitar.
 Have you issued any denial that I am a candidate?" inquired the promi- nent politician of his secretary.
 "Yes, sir said the obedient secretary.
 Well then" continued the politician, Ego down to committee headquarters and tell the chairman to get himself inter- viewed to the effect that it is impossible to foretell what I might do were the honor forced upon me by unanimous &C., tion of the party. Record
 Some people wonder how a man be- comes a candidate for an office. The following receipt is therefore given: When he says he intends to become candidate the boys all slap him on the shoulder and unanimously say, Lets take a drink" Then comes a prolonged gurgling sound; he pauses to take his breath and winks at the barkeeper and the latter makes an entry on the slate. Throats are then cleared and he is fin the field" The figures on the slate are usually S0."-Chattanooga Press
 A Boston newspaper the other day quoted "a bright little lady" from Geor- gia, delegate to the recent Christian Endeavor convention, as saying that she had addressed letters to members of the Georgia legislature with regards to bills she would like them to favor, and found that many of them could not write their names. Those who were obliged to sign their names to me with cross," said the bright little lady, "were the most bigoted in their expressions of opposition to woman suffrage" Secretary of State Candler has taken the pains to say in the public prints that the bright little lady did the Georgia legislature a great injustice if she told the Boston paper any such fairy story.

Why do the veterans call their carni- val to be given on the 29th of August the Midsummer Carniyal?' On that date the summer lacks only two days of being numbered with the past. The sum- mer months are June, July and August.
 Both the calendar and the thermometer agree upon these months as summer, for the thermometer rose to 95 degrees the first days of June, and it has gone no higher since. A more appropriate title would be the Harvest Carnival" Corn has been laid by, wheat is ripening unto the harvest, acorns and chestnuts are nearly full grown. Nature has reached the flood tide of lusty life. The title Harvest Carnival would also have a sentimental meaning. It will be a full and complete reunion of the blue and the gray It will be the occasion for garnering the many deeds of kindness that have been sown like seed since the war closed.
