upon another successful year. The
phenomenal success which attended
the opening of the first session, the
crushing calamity which came in the
very zenith OF It's prosperity, the con-

Of but two days, the immediate rebuild
ing of the college by President Fitz-
hugh, encouraged by the interest and
enthusiasm manifested by the people
of Jackson and the entire State have
combined to make this institution ia
nous throughout the South.
The new buildings have been COM
pleted and beautiful structures they
are-tar surprising the former ones
that graced that lovely site. The build
ings are all white and beautifully de-
signed. AS you app zach the College
grounds, the buildings, so pure and
white and half hidden among the state
ly forest trees and dense green foliage
of the lawn, resemble white marble
dwellings.
They are admirably a7ran ged in every
respect. The pupils will he subjected
to no exposure during bad weather, as
all the departments of the college are
under the same roof. Vesta Hall is
being finished in the most modern
style. Everything has been arranged
tor the comfort and health of the pu-
pills. Bath rooms on both floors, sup
piled with hot and cold water. Flee
trio lights, electric bells and steam
heaters are some Of the modern con-
veiences of this building. The insti-
tute is also supplied with electric
lights, electric bells, and steam heaters
and has been equipped with modern
appliances and apparatus. The Chapel
with its elevated floor and opera chairs
makes a most attractive study and con-
cert hall.
As an institution for the higher edu-
cation of girls and young women, Bel
haven is unsurpassed in the South.
Every department is in charge of skilled
teachers. Facilities in music, art and
elocution unequaled in the South.
No college can boast of a better

Democratic party of Mississippi
and of the union affords the only
security for the maintenance Of
white supremacy in the State and
that all political movements which
tend to widen or weaken our party
are in direct conflict with the true
interests of the State and danger
Gus to the welfare and happiness
of both races, we therefore deplore
the movement now afoot for the
organization of third party to be
known as Peoples party and we
conjure all good men and true pa,
triots to stand by the Democratic
party which is and has ever been
the friend of the people and the
only peoples party-the party
whose principles embody all that
is good and desirable in free gov
eminent and whose power is great
enough to put and keep those
principles in force. Whatever
grievance the people may have,
can be righted only in and by the
Democratic party.
1--WE congratulate the party on
the passage by congress of the
best tariff law since 1916, that
transfers the burden of the taxes
from the weak to the strong, and
supplies'the public treasuryIwithout
expressing one class for the benht
of the other.
1--WE demand legislation to sup
press dealing in futures, a PERM
cious and immoral business which
controls the price of the products
of the farm to the detriment of the
farmer and subjects the rewards o.
his toll to the vissitudes of gamb
ling transactions.
We oppose all trusts and com
bines and favor legislation for thell
suppression.
1--WE pledge our party to rigiC
economy in the administration O
the affairs Of the State.
1--WE commend the present state
administration for its wise anC
honest management Of our public
affairs.
"Resolved, That we demand
such change in our organic Law
SO as to permit the national gov
eminent to levy and collect an in
come tax.

RINGING DEMOCRATIC ADDRESS,
Continued from first page

whereby the opportunities of an
education are put at every mans
door in Mississippi.
Again, the Populites are power
less to aid you; the government OF
the State is in the hands of the
Democracy, and when your num-
bic cabin is fired into at night by
some cowardly assassin behind
some neighboring tree, who do you
look to for protection, the Populites
or the Democrats? | say to you
to stand by your former owners in
this contest, for no one has a bet
ter regard for you than he; he is
able and he is willing to see that
you are accorded your legal rights.
In conclusion let me suggest that
Democratic clubs be formed all
over the county at the voting pre-
cincts and other places, and tina.
every Democrat IN the county
make it his duty and so arrange
his business as to be certain to
vote on election day at all hazards,
and if only this is done we can say
farewell to Populism in Attala
county, for this is in my opinion
their last, final and desperate at
tempt.
| will make it my duty to try
and engage some strong speakers
for the campaign, OF whose coming
you will be fully notified, and will
be glad to respond to any request
for speakers whenever in my
power.
DR.. F. D. Smythe is treasurer
of the committee, and any contri-
button given him for the campaign
will be appreciated and properly
accounted for.
Hoping we may have peaceful,
pleasant and victorious campaign,
which is assured, | remain,
Yours very truly,

Senator Vest was then asked II

In regard to the prospects Of az
international monetary conference
Senator Vest remarked:
ut is generally conceded that
the other powers are awaiting the
action of England, and from all
accounts England will not alter
the gold standard. A prominent
English official was here recently,
a gentleman who had the conf.
dence of the new ministry, and he
had several long conferences on
the subject with Mr.. John Wsna-
maker. He said: rest assured
that England will not alter the
gold standard"
Referring to the outlook at home,
the Senator stated that "the gold
reserve is steadily decreasing, and
the treasury is likely to be obliged
to make another bargain with the
syndicate. l regard it as an out.

pay a bonus of eleven millions to

The state republican. (Jefferson City, Mo.) 1871-1896, 1895-11-14


Thus had the young king, with such
bright prospects mi vast possibilities
stretching u before him, failed upon
this first test OF loyalty.
HIS act showed distrust OF God; az
though after choosing him, He would
forsake him IN the hour OF need. 1t also
showed a spirit Of self-assertion; as II he
could make war by himself without the
assistance and counsel Of God expressed
through His prophet. The offense thus
involved the whole principle of the abso-
Lutte subordination OF the theocratic king
to the will OF Jehovah as revealed by his
representative. He who did this was
unfit to be king.
But the Lord gave him other chances
Of redeeming himself. He was not liza.
mediately deposed, nor was the Spirit OF
the Lord yet withdrawn from him. He
was still in great power and was per-
mitted to gain victories over Moab and
Ammon and Edom and the Philistines.
The student will not fail to read, in this
connection, the history in chapter four
teen, how that Jonathan and his armor-
bearer smote the Philistine garrison, and
how by Sauls unwise vow, the victory
was hindered and Jonathan came near
losing his life at the hands OF his father
and was saved by the Intervention Of his
people. In this connection we have the
name OF Abner, Saul's nephew, who was
in chief Of his army, the
name of his wife Ahinoam, and the
names Of his sons and daughters.

OLD TIMES, OLD FRIENDS, OLD LOVE.

There are no days like the good old days
The days when we were Youthful
When humankind were pure OF mind,
And speech and deeds were truthful;
Before a love for sordid gold
Became mans ruling passion,
And before each dame and maid became
Slave to the tyrant fashioni
There are no girls like the good old girls
Against the world I'D stake 'emi
As buxom and smart and clean OF heart
As the Lord knew how to make 'emi
They were rich in spirit and common sense
And plety all supportin'.
They could bake and brew, and had taught
school too,
And they made such lively courtin'.
There are no boys like the good old boys
When we were boys together!
When the grass was sweet to the brown bare
feet
That dimpled the laughing heather;
Whc he peewee sung to the summer dawn
or lee. bees in the billowy clover,
Or down by the mill the whippoorwiI
Echoed his night song over.
There is no love like the good old love-
The love that mother gave usl
We are men, old men, yet we pine again
For that p~recions grace-God save usi
30 we dream and dream Of the good old
times,
And our hearts grow tenderer, fonder,
Al those dear old dreams bring soothing
CLEANS
OF heaven away Of yonder.

The little toy dog is covered with dust,
But sturdy and staunch he stands;
And the little toy soldier is red with rust,
And his musket molds In his hands.
Time was when the little toy dog was new
And the soldier was passing fair,
And that was the time when our Little Boy
Blue
Kissed them and put them there.
"Now, don't you go till I come,'' he said,
And don't you make any noisei"
30 toddiing Of to his trundle bed
He dreamt Of the pretty toys.
AND o. he was dreaming an angel song
Awakened our little Boy Blue
Oh, the years are many, the years are long,
But the little toy friends are true.
aye. faithful to Little Boy Blue they stand,
Each In the same old place,
Awaiting the touch OF a little hand,
The smile OF a little face.
And they wonder, as waiting these long
years through,
In the dust OF that little chair,
What has become Of our Little Boy Blue
Since he kissed them and put them there.
