POLITICAL NOTES
Items Of Interest Appertaining to the
Campaign, Here and Elsewhere

r. Y. Mcbride Is being strongly urged
as the Democratic nominee for council
man in the Third ward. Mr.. Mcbride Is
a reputable business man and would
make strong run. He Is for municipal
ownership Of the water plant, and stood
out for it before his name was men
toned in this connection.
Nick P. Wynne of the on & Vaughn
Drug company is in the field for the
Democratic nomination for councilman
from the Third ward. Mr.. Wynne has
resided here for many years and Is wide-
ly known. s.s. ...-.,1
one Of the shining lights Of gold Re-
publicanism from Ohio, Ben Butter
worth, will be here presently to speak
In April last Mr.. Butterworth was
staunch advocate Of the free and unlin-
tied coinage of silver.
Henry Dockweiler seems to be alone
in the race for the Democratic nomina-
tion for city engineer.
The Populists will nominate, In all
probability, Jud r. Rush for city attor-
ney. He is a staunch friend Of munich
pal ownership of the water plant, and
he would give the people an administra-
ton of the city attorneys Office inde-
pendent of water company influence.
That Is what Is needed for the next two
G. o. Hawley is spoken Of as the Popu-
list nominee for city auditor. He would
make good run.

brother, Sutherland, is one of the active
men in the silver Republican movemen.
is being used to defeat him for the Re-
publican nomination for street superin-
tendent Still Gap" Hutton's friends
say he will win.

two Of the ablest speakers before the
people In this campaign, will address

THE FUSION.
The Joint Committee Holds One Very
Satisfactory Session.

There Is going to be no great diniculty
in bringing about q fusion Of the Popu-
lists and Democrats in this city for the
municipal campaign.
The joint fusion committee Of the two
been agreed that the Democrats shall
be given the nominees for the council in
the First, Second, Third and Fourth
wards. In the other wards an agree
ment will be made on Tuesday evening
next.
As to the board of education, there is
practically no disagreement. The
Democrats will have six Of the nomina-
tions and the Populists three.
As to the municipal offices the Popu-
lists have conceded the Democrats the
nomination for mayor. They assert that
Mr.. Snyder can poll the full Populist
vote. They are asking for the nomina-
tions for city attorney and auditor. They
would also like to have one more place
on the ticket-possibly city clerk.
This then would leave the Democrats
tor. engineer and street superintendent.
The. first meeting Of the committee
was harmonious in every way and a
general canvass of the situation was
made.
To the silver Republicans proper ten
uci VI IcCOSultlOu On the tlCkeL Will De
made in due time. The silver Republic
ans are looked upon as allies this year
of the Populists and Democrats in all
movements to bring about reforms and
the feeling seems to be general that
they will cooperate to effect the utter
and complete rout Of the city hall COM
bination.
What is earnestly to be desired this
year Is the election of somebody as
street superintendent who will inaugur-
ate some reform methods in the man
agement of this Office which has been so
woefully neglected ever since the new
charter was adopted.
1t is very important position and one
which requires an honest business man.
The present administration Of the affairs
Of the department is simply unpardona-
BILE for its Incompetence.
There should be complete cleaning
out in the department Of streets, and an
entire sweep made from top to bottom.
Then an honest. efficient and economical
regime should be inaugurated which
would guarantee the conduct of this de-
partment on a strictly business basis.

The following from the Jackson
correspondent OF the Picayune will
prove of interest to superintendent
of education and other school offis
Gals:
"Some time ago the state super
intendent OF education had occasion
to render decision III regard to the
exemption clause Of section 4O26 OF
the school law. Mr.. Kincannon
held that the exemption applies on
ly to fist grade teachers who haye
taught five years consecutiVeiy Ill
one county.
"Mrs. A. E. Perkins, teacher in
Oktibbeha county, claimed exemp-
ton from further examination, al
though she had not taught five
years consecntiyely with a first
grade license IN one county. Su-
perlntendent Miller, of Oktibbeha,
acting under instructions from the
state superintendent, declined to
contract with her. Through her att
torneys she brought a mandamus
proceeding against Superintendent
Miller in the circuit court of Ok
tibbeha county.
Judge Csyce sustained Super
inteudent Miller's demurrer and
decided that the teaching must be
done in one county for five con-
secutlve years. The opinion of the
state superintendent is sustained,
ana the county superintendent
and teachers claiming exemption will
do well to make a note of this ruiz
