The Fever Situation.

The fever situation is becoming so
grave that all the towns of any size a.
long the NJ. d 0. road are bottling up
and throwing out guards with double
barrel shot guns to stop all intercourse
between town and country and the
balance of mankind. The order of the
day now about Macon is to stay at home
as closely as possible, aud await, at
least, ten days for the development of
the fever that may be lurking on the
persons or in the baggage of the refu-
gees who have come into our county
from infected districts. SO far, no case
has been reported to the authorities
nearer than Starkville, and extraordi
nary precautions are being taken to
keep it ont. 1t was done in past years
when the situation was more threaten.

should do his utmost to aid the authori- |

For District Attorney,

Under the head of announcements for
office III the BEACON will be found this
week the name of Hon. Henry J. Woods
OF Lauderdale county as a candidate for
the important off e Of district attorney,
There may be some voters in the county
VINO are not acquainted with Mr.. Woods.
but he Is acquainted with a majority of
them, at least by reputation, for the
name of Woods is a household word
throughout Mississippi in connection
with the law and courts. The voung
and talented aspirant fol the position is
a worthy son of Chief Justice Thos. fl.
Woods, who himself, in his young DAYS.
acquired a great reputation by mis- TO.
renslc Efforts in the halls of Justice rs
the attorney for the state. We are led
to believe, from the abundant testimony
offered by his fellow attorneys, and by
many others who have been intimately
associated with him, that Mr.. Woods
has a peculiar fitness for the position of
prosecutor, and he has himself full con
hdence in his ability to make a faithful
and competent officer. From the lights
before us we can confidently recon
mend him to the Democratic voters Of
Noxubee, and it will be seen, from his
card in this issue, although the office
may justly be called a non political one,
that he does not hesitate to boldly Al.
his principles and pin his Demo.
faith to his coat sleeve. We do
not know that Mr., Woods will have any
opposition, but whoever will contest
him for the office will find a foe.
nan worthy of his steel.
