Applicable to Bay 81. Louis is the fol-
lowing editorial utterance from the Hat
tiesbnrg Gazette:
The way to effect internal improvement,
is to go right to work at it. It will not
do to wait for providence to do II. 1t will
not do to wait for foreigners to do it. IL
will not do to wait for the general gov
ernment to do IL. Only those who help
themselves are helped. We must take the
lead. The farmer that weights for his
noighbor to come and work ont his crop
for PHYS sake, reaps little harvest. SO
if the people of Mississippi wait for Others
to put their dormant energies into action,
they may wait for long while and their
powers sleep on
The good work must go on. Mississip-
pi must keep pace with other sections
While the iron is hot let us hammer it so
hard and fast rs to retain the heat. The
road to the highest degree Of progress is
d race track run by many rivals. If We
do not rush on with all possible speed,
tact and perseverance,, we may fall IN line
away behind the rush of the marching
army.
Tho trouble with our people heretofore
has been that they have been content to
sit idly by and wait for strangers to come
in our midst aud help develop our re-
sources. They are now just learning to
bo self.reliant. The fact is if we would
develop our own resources it would not
be long before abundant capital would be
attracted TO orr borders. Self reliance is
great lesson, aud one which every per-
son should learn The way TO do n thing
is to do it and not wait for some other lei
low to come along and do ii for you.

For The ssa coast Eeho.

For The Sea Coast Echo.
Shadows always creep silently after the
suns bright rays,
Darkness always shadows the golden
sunshine ofour days;
In life's dreamy summer, days seem like
beautiful years;
In life's wlnter, years are days marked
by nem'ry's tears.
Poets say "mem'ries of past joys ore al
ways a sadness"
Old age says, youths JOYS Is only a
lids uminer madness"
Still deep in their hearts will pierce tan
ciful memory's lance,
Tearing apart its tundrils like Ivy from
an old manse;
Grand music of hope and love that sing
swestly in a soul
Are always named by discords like an
angry waves roll.
Young minds IN fancy paint su miner skies
with mirage bright,
Old hearts know they are never seen
either By day or night.
Behind the veil of future, youth dreams
of golden shore;
When 'tis torn aside by years they muse
of those dreams of yore
When they thought life one long, bright,
aud happy dream.
But how can youth realize that "thin gs
are not what they seeinf'
And it will always be thus--the young
will mcrrily sing
At the the start of life's voyage every
sail of joy sets wing and wing,
But cold winds and rough tides will toss
them wildly o'sr tho sea
And their merry songs will change to
''Ah, sigh to rest me-"
Weary v0yagers, look above, and in tho
stormy sky see
His promise, the Southern Cross shining
in great majesty,
And know sad aud weary hearts tits the
beacon of His will,
Guiding thee after life's long voyage to
haven still ETEbKA.

We commend the following to those
who are Interested in cabbage growing;
This insect is ~ far the worst pest Of
the cabbage in the souti. A native ofa.
more tropical climate, probably Mexico,
1t has gradually worked its way north
ward and Tor several years has been very
abundant in this stats. With the in
crease ofcabbag Q growing for shipment
to the early northern markets and to sup
ply the home demand, there also comes a O
increase in tho number Of insect pests
which attack the crop, the hardest to get
rid of being the harlequin cabbage bug.
The insect IS so well known as to make a
description of it almost unnecessary. The
mature insects areS nearly oval, abouttn
inch long, black with red marking. The
young offer from, these in being less
marked with red, smaller end without
wings. The insects suck the Juices of
the plants, aud attacked plants at first
look as II they needed water, then lrn
yellow and die. They do not form heads
II attacked to any extent
For most insects We have various spray
mixtures and thaliko whereby the insects
upon plarts can be killed. But this in
sect sucks the juices Of the plants d
cannot be reached by the ordinary pols-
ons. The insects spend the winter under
boards, etc. and during Anril ily to old
turnip or mustard beds Here they should
be picked off and put into a pail contain
ing Kerosene. If fupon the mustard blo,-
soins they are easily bfushel off into tho
pail with stick If all are gathered in
this way none will be left in flie fields to
propagate the spscies and the fields which
would otherwise be attacked viii be free
from these pests. The insects do not nv

TIE ELECTION.

The regular municipal election for the
city OF Bay st. Louis was held last Mon
day aud, as usual, the result was a demo
cratic walk oyer. OF the gentlemen elect
ed The Echo has naught to say unless IT
be to quote its comment on their
recent nomination by the people, they
being responsible for the selection CT men
for their own government. However, at
present we see no reason to believe con-
trary that the board will give general sat
isfaction. The following is the result
of the election:

THE COUNTRY EDITaS,

The country editor is combination of
the entire staff Of q city newspapers. His
sphere OF usefulness, although not so ubi.
qnitous, is quite as important as that of
the great contemporaries. HIS single
weekly paper is in miniature theseveD is
sues per week of the great dailies. His
constituency is often the most moral and
hgh-minded to be found in the domain
of history. He reaches the homes Of brain
and Drawn that send TO the colleges and
cities the great, well-balanced men of
the age. He may not uproot scandal, ex.
pose corruption, tear down religious and
political parties, create empires or crush
dynasties, but he reaches and influences
the majority of the army of boys who, in
after years, fight tho great battles of life
in the pulpit; at the bar, in the hospital,
and even become his most distinguished
co.workers in journalism.
The country editor may take wood and
potatoes for his subscription price, but ho
never lies about his circulation. He may
mention In detail the process of construc-
ton of country barns and the interyisita-
tion OF unimportant bumpkias, but he
makes no attempt to build his fortunes on
scandals, broken homes, nasty twaddle,
and ndueprymg into private life. He
may write wretchod English and deplora-
BILE grammar, but he never talks about
"innocuous desuetude" aud "masterful'
efforts He may publish three pages of
patent insides to one OF original matter,
but he never steals tho news and brains OF
others because geographical difference
of time favors his location. lie may set
his own type and turn the crank of his
own press, but he never scales down the
wages ofhis employees, nor treats printers
like cattle nor pays starvation wages to
reporters. Hemay deplore certain local
usages and want ofappreciation of his col
umns by business men, but he never-pur-
sues people who have no means for reply
with vindictive hate, with vile cartoons
and outrageous persecution to the grave.
He is not q life wrecker; nor family
wrecker, nor scandal monger, nor par.
ty political poltroon, nor bribo taker
nor washer of dirty linen. Whatever
his mistakes, troubles and ludicrous OK.

CLOUGH ELECTED.

Chosen Governor of Minnesott by a Plu-
rality of Not More Than 5000.
ST. PAUL, Nov. 7.-Official figures
have been received from several coun-
ties, those from st. Louis county ma
terially increasing MeKinley's lead. bis
plurality now being over $1,000. The
figures on governor, on the other hand,
cut into Clough's plurality to such an
extent that he now leads Lind by but
5,066 votes. Enough is known now to
indicate clearly that Clough is elected,
though perhaps by slightly larger or
smaller plurality than that given
above. The other candidates on the
Republican state ticket are elected by
pluralities averaging %, 900. All of the
nine amendments voted upon are car
ried by large majorities. Returns so
far received indicate that the vote for
Palmer and lowering was everywhere
very small. In the Sixth district Nor.
ris' plurality over Towne has been re-
duced to 392, but later returns are not
expected to affect the result.

returns have somewhat changed the
figures previously given and put Nc.
Kinley's majority below 1000 The
result is still in doubt The returns,
mostly complete on presidential. con-
gressional and state tickets, are in from
all organized counties, and, after max
ing liberal allowances for possible votes
in unorganized counties and a few re-
mote districts in the Black Hills, Nc
kinley has between 900 and 800 ma jor-
ity. The state and congressional tick
cts run about even with the presidential
and indicate the election of all the
Republican State Officers
by majorities from 200 to 400. 1t is so
close i'll several counties that the official
count will be necessary. kilograms
from the state officials and committee
men warrant the prediction that the
above figures will be verified. The
legislature is certainly Populist by 10
majority and may be increased to 10.

Republicans have carried seven coun.
ties in the state and the Democrats five.
No returns have been received from the

CHICAGO, Nov. 7.-Chairman Jones
has issued the following statement
The result of the presidential elec.
tion is apparently no longer i'll doubt.
1t has been one OF the closest contests
that the people have been called on to
determine in recent years. We have
claimed the election on our advices
from states that were admittedly in
doubt, in which we knew there had
been many frauds and from which
there were evidences of tampering
with the returns. 1t seems now to be
apparent that while Mr.. Bryan, after
making the most brilliant campaign in
the history of our country and having
carried most of the states claimed to be
doubtful, has not carried enough
To Assure His Success
in the electoral college. Bryan electors
have been chosen from all of the states
south Of the Potomac and Ohio except
West Virginia, and all those west of
the Missouri except California and Ore
gon. He has 100 electoral votes, and
this number may be increased by final
returns from states yet in question. He
has not obtained enough votes to carry
the electoral college. Thus this re-
markable campaign closes with the
election of William Mckinley. The
result was brought about by every kind
of coercion and intimidation on the part
Of the money power, including threats
of lockouts and dismissals and impend.

Under Pledge to the American People
to continue the gold standard, and by
it's operation to restore prosperity to

Mckinley will have the cordial support
of the millions of patriotic Americans
who have cast their votes for William
Jennings Bryan. They bow to the
majesty of the Office, and abide by the
result with none Of the mutterings that
would have come from the monied
power, had it been unsuccessful. They
are confident the gold standard cannot
give the promised prosperity, but will
gladly welcome it if it comes. They
will continue the great struggle for the
uplifting Of humanity, and the mainte.
