We dare say there never has been a
Congressman from Mississippi, who
after serving one term in Congress
and upon bis announcement for re-
election, received as many compliment
tary notices from the press both in
aud outside Of his district, as our
worthy Congressman W. F. Love, such
goes to show that he has filed the
wants Of the people OF the entire dis
trict as their Representative. He will
be returned, no doubt, by a large ma
jority over all opponents.
