Blind Tigerism and McLaurin.

r Mr.. Frank L. Bellenger, ex-
editor of the Jackson News, who
is candidate for Representative
in Kinds, was one of the princI-
pal speakers at a candidates raj
fy at Brownsville last week.
The following report of his
speech is gwen by correspon-
dent of the Vicksburg Herald:
A gentleman who was present
informs The Herald correspon-
dent that none of the legislative
candidates, except Bellenger had
one word to say against Governor
McLaurin's administration, but
that Bellenger made up for all
their omissions and shortcomings
on this subject by putting III the
hottest load of shot ever fired at a
chief executive in this State.
Among other things he gave the
Prohibitionists of the county, and
of the State, something to think
about when he came to talk about
the defeat of the whisky petition
recently filed with the board of
supervisors. He told his audience
he knew theywere all Prehibitio-
nists, but that he was a signer of
the petitions they had defeated
and as such would tell them there
are in the city of Jackson just
eighty-two blind tigers. The ex-
istence of these dens of iniquity
he charged to the Governor of the
State, saying it was no use for the
Prohibitionists to convict the I'll
gers as the Governor pardoned
them as fast as they were sent to
the county farm. 81 know it to
be a fact" said Mr.. Bellenger,
"thst you and the balance of
the taxpayers of the coun-
ty have spent a great deal of
money by prosecuting these blind
tigers that you have convicted a
number of them, and that the
Governor of the great State of
Mississippi has invariably pardon
ed them" Later on in his re-
marks he corrected that statement
to say that the Governor had par
doned all the striped beasts but
one and that was a negro woman;
who, of course, could not vote.
just how many of the blind tigers
the Governor had pardoned Mr..
Bellengers did not know, but de-
clared the number considerable,
and that the Infamous and illegal
traffic would never be broken up
as long as the chief executive was
ready with mis- pardonlng pen.
This has been talked about Jack
son ror sume time, ,and the Prohi-
bitionists of the county will doubt
less remember the undIsputed
charge when the day of the sena-
torial primary rolls around. Mr..
Bellenger's remarks on the blind
tiger business of the city of Jack.
son proved an eye-opener to the
audience, and after the speaking
was over scores of people crowded
around him to assure him OF
their sympathy and to tell him
they were going to vote to rebuke
such promiscuous pardoning OF
criminals.

We have yet to meet a single
man in this county who thinks j.
A. Anderson will stand ghost of
a show beside w. A. White for
district attorney. - Poplarville
Free Press.
The editor of the Free Press,
when Mr.. White announced Cup
on solicitation) in that paper long
tile since in so early a stage of
the campaign prematurely sided
with Mr.. White. When Mr. An
derson came out the Free Press
editor wrote him, soliciting the
$15-announcement, but it being
impossible to announce IN all the
newspapers within the district,
Mr.. Anderson thought it expe-
dent and fair to favor those pa
pers not antagonistic to his cause,
aad accordingly made no reply to
the Free Press, not wishing, as it
were, to furnish ammunition to the
enemy. The editor and the can
didate recently met at Helaelhurg
where the announcement was
again solicited, but refused on the
grounds aforestated. And since
then the Free Press has been in
dulging in bitterness of which
the above squib is fair sample.

Now comes the New Orleans
States "nosing' into Mississippi
politics with a mississippi Bu-

other than the city editor of the
Clarion-Ledger acting as CORES

States were helping to devel-

help build factories; foster indus

space and time it is devoting to
the washing of our dirty linen.

Just as the Moon Went Down.

10 - -
Jnst midnight oe'r the Bay,
Moonbaams melting into Tist;
The white road in the shadow lay,
Sandy shores By waves kIst;
Crickels chirping in the grasses,
Mystic voices of The night
A wheelman silently passes
In the moons fading light.
Far beyond yon stately pines
In the radiant srar-lit west.
AS into rich. sparkling mines
Lunar slowly sinks to rest;
Darkness creeps along the shore,
Lights are dim in the town,
Home distant mile or more
Just as the moon went down.
Just after midnight's witching hour
He heard the whip-poor-wilPs song.
Sung afar in the woody bower;
Aud the wheel sped swiftly along.
Haunted his mind face so fair,
OF her he Was idly dreaming;
Blue eyes framed in chestnut HAIR.
Through the cleaning, mystic evening
Dream fancies float and roam;
After Lunar leaves all torIorn,
Wheelman hastens towards home
Ere the faint moonbeams are gone,
Silently reaches the welcome. gate,
Smiles into eyes of brown.
They question why he Is so late

year as the lumbermen of the city
has enjoyed. The demand for lum-
Der as we'll as the cut of the mills has
exceeded all expectations.
Never before has there been SO
good a prospect for a firm market
for white pine throughout the
months OF December, January and
February. Although every mill In
the white pine manufacturing dis
trict has been saving all summer to
it's utmost capacity, the close OF the
summer season finds the manufac-
turers with much less stock ON hand
than they had at the beginning OF
the year. Even though trade drops
to it's usual winter volume, this
shortage in stocks would have in it
a great element OF strength; but the
prospects are that the coming winter
will be characterized by greater
activity in wholesale lumber circles
than ever before.
With the expansion of the country
has come the expansion Of trade.
Larger quantities of American man.
ufactured goods have been exported
than ever before. The increase Of
exports for the year ending June 80,
was fully 30 per cent over the pre-
ceding twelve months. A large
percentage of the exports have gone
abroad in wooden boxes or crates
and the result has been anenormous
demand for box lumber. No indi-
cations have yet appeared Of
diminutiOn OF this trade and the
are in the market for
very thing offered. 1t has been es-
timated, though this is probably
beyond the fact, that nearly so per
cent OF the white pine lumber sold
this season, has gone to the box
trade. The large pur chasing mar
kets are sending out their buyers
for next years business, and
these agents are visiting all points
in the white pine country where
there is any possibility of getting
stock.
Unless the weather prevents. one
or two OF the Minneapolis mills will
he saving another week. The
season has been longer than usual
and the most favorable in the his
tory of the city as a lumber manu-
featuring center.

600 MILLION FEET.
Output of the Minneapolis Saw Mills
Will Reach That Figure for the
Season of 1899.

From the Minneapolis Journal.
The Minneapolis saw mills have
again broken all previous records
For the past seven months every one
of the eleven mills in the city has
been working almostcontinually and
turning out lumber at a rate never
before eQualed. Work has been
stopped only on two or three oc-
casions, when the water has been SO
high that it has interfered with oper-
ations, and the result Of this un-
paralleled activity is that the sea-
sons cut will exceed that OF any
previous year by at least 100000, 900
feet.
In 1894 the cut of the Minneapolis
mills, then greater in number by two
than this season, was 49l ,256, 900 feet,
and it was thought then that the
limit had been reached, says the Mis-
sippi Valley Lumberman. In 1892
the cut was 4SS, pa, 900 feet, but this
season will set mark that is far
above either 1892 or 1894. The
record is not yet complete, as a few
of the mills are still operating and
only two or three have completed
their figures for the year. But suf-
ficiently accurate returns have been
received to indicate that the total
cut will not be far from GO0,00O,0O0
feet. This record has been |made
possible by favorable conditions Of
weather and water in the river, as
we'll az by the increased saving
capacity of some of the mills. Two
of the mills have sawed more than
OO,O0O,OOO feet each and a third has
very near to that mark.
Not Withs landing the greatly in
creased output Of the mills OF Mime
apolis nearly every wholesale firm Of
the city reports less stock on hand
than at the beginning Of the year.
This is due to the most phenomenal
demand in the history of the market.
Up to this year the largest ship
ments of lumber for any one year
amounted to SS,53O,OOO feet. This
was in 1892. Up to Tuesday night OF
this week the shipments Of lumber
from the local market amounted to
453, 235, 900 feet, or about 65,0OO,O0O
feet more than for any preceding
year complete. When to the ship
ments from the market are added
the number of feet consumed locally,
the record for the year will be a
marvel, even for so prosperous a

GET YOUR SHARE.

! Are you getting your share of the
vast amount of money spent III adyer
Using? 1t used to be all given to the
publishers of newspapers and maya
zines, but by the latest method it is
freely distributed among the people
themselves; that is, among those who
are alert and quick, and can see an adj
vantage when it is offered them.
One of the most successful establish
ments in America. the Woolsen Spice
Company, Of Toledo, Ohio is spending
thousands of dollars i'll advertising
their Lion Coffee, and they are paying
ont this money directly to the people
who purchase the coffee. Their plan
is to enclose in their one pound package
of Lion Coffee most attractive Prem
ium List. So costly are some of the ar
ticles on this Premium List that one
wonders how they can afford to give
them away with their goods; but it
must be remembered that these prem
iums are bought in enol nous quantities
and bought directly of the manufacture
ers, so that they are secured at about
one-fourth the price the retail consumer
pays, No profits is paid to shipper,
wholesaler or retailer, the goods are all
bought at first hand.
This method Of introducing Lion
Coffee is as if you wanted to purchase
some article for which you would have
to pay $l.o0; the propretors of Lion
Coffee buy it for you for 25c. and then
give it to you for the trouble that you
take in letting them know you are us
ing their coffee.
The housekeeper who is alive to the
value of her patronage may now, by a
little trouble, secure many desirable
articles from time to time at no cost.
All that she has 70 do is to cut out and
preserve the Lion head which appears
on the wrapper of every package of
Lion Coffee. These lion heads are re-
ceived by the WooIsen Spice Company
in pay for their premiums.
The new Premium List which has
Just been issued in connection with
Lion Coffee is unsurpassed in its liber-
ality, Some of the most attractive ar
ticles on the market today are included
in this list.
1t is evident that the Woolson Spice
Company places great value on the rec
ommeudation of satisfied customer,
for they believe the best advertising of
Lion Coffee is where some one who
uses it tells friend Of its good quality.
1t is mostly in this way that its enor
nous sale has been brought about.
Many people are so delighted with it
that they feel it a duty to recommend it
to their friends, and as every package
contains a Premium List with full i'll
structions for securing the articles Of
fered, there is much interest in buying
Lion Coffee for household use. Really,
Lion Coffee is almost unsurpassed in its
quality. and it is a mystery how it can
be sold for such low price. 1t is bet
ter than many other brands OF coffee
which cost two or three times us much.
It would seem as though the time was
approaching when every family would
be drinking this famous beverage.
