TOO QUICK A SERVICE.
The Kinaus Abandonment of Her New
Schedule

The Wilder steamer Kinaus change
back to her old schedule was made in
part because local shippers found the
time in port here under the new time
table not long enough for the answering
of mail and getting shipments ready.
The experiment made also showed that
the vessel would not pay expenses while
making such rapid trips, the amount of
travel and freight not being sufficient.

SAWMILL BURNED.

On Wednesday morning at
about one D clock the sawmill Of
Mr.. Frank Walker about two
miles east Of McComb City, was
discovered to bo on fire, and in d
few minutes the entire plant was
in ashes. This mill was recently
built and was cutting orders for
the Illinois Central Railroad, the
shipping yard being established
at the switch in front Of the Han
ford Hotel. We are informed
that the loss is very heavy there
being little insurance.
There is no clue as to how the
fire originated but it is supposed
to have caught from sparks from
fire under the boiler. -McComb

a GREAT MAN.

One Of the greatest men today
in Mississippi is Judge Al. FL.
Longino, of Greenville. He is
in touch with the people, and
their wants and their needs be-
come his wants and his needs.
He is a man that strives to supply
his needs, it would necessarily
follow that he would strive to fill
the needs OF the people if he could
but reach the exalted position of
governor Of our state. He has
been a close and thorough student
along this line all his life, and
being endowed with the gift Of
trying to serve others as he would
himself, and having held offices
and seeing the deficiencies in the
laws of the state, both those of
omission from dates immemorial
and those that grow upon the
people with the demands of the
times, he is better fitted in our
estimation, for the governors Of
flee than any man in the race.
He was reared upon the farm
among the laboring people and
from earliest boyhood he has been
one that respected and honored
those who toiled by force of mus
Gle.
He only presents himself to the
people as one to serve them and
under such consideration as the
time and conditions may demand,
and in compliance of honest,
upright democratic principles.
Judge Longino will be hard for
the people to duplicate at the ex-
piration of the next term of the
gubernatorial administration Il
the people will only be so fortu.
nate as to elect him. Forest Re-
porter.

PIGMIEs TO THE REAR.

The New Albany Gazette says
"The old time thought that most
any old thing would do for a
member Of the state legislature
or board Of supervisors, should
be relegated to the rear. y
The RELOCATING to the rear of
"any old thing" that aspires to
represent the intelligence, edu-
cation, property, or aspirations Of
Mississippians, is an idea we
heartily endorse, but we protest
against the suggestion that ele-
waiting these people was IAN old
time thought. =
On the contrary, the noHious
weed is Of very modern growth

composed of the very best mer

favorably with any body Of mer
ever assembled nlegislltive halls
anywhere, state or national.

Banks, should | be elected.
stand upon my merits as regards
character and competency for
the office. | am in every sense
untrammelled.
Any such arrangement with a
Bank is a bid for influence. IL
it may be made with Bank, it
may be made with a merchant.
The principle is wrong. The
strongest Bank or Banks will use
their influence for their man die
tated solely by the interest of
such financial institution. Char
acter and fitness for office on the
part of candidates are lost sight
of and subserviency to a Bank or
Banks is used in the interests of
securing votes. Such a pledge
is concerned with the interest OF
the few at the expense Of the in
terest of the whole people. Such
an arrangement with Banks acts
in its principle just as the great
Trusts Of this country.
am entirely friendly to the
Banks Of this county. but have
made no agreement with them in
the matter of depositing the
county's money with one or more
in consideration of their influence

The writer went to the pow
WOW at Port Gibson Monday and
returned mentally inyigorated
but physically exhausted, got
wet, had to walk home. 1t was
our first appearance before Gov.
McLaurin and Jno. Allen. We
went for McLaurin and returned
the same way. All the state
candidates were there with but
few exceptions. Among the GU
bernatorial candidates Montgom-
cry made the best impression,
his earnestness capturing the
crowd. We'd like to give our
impression of Allen and McLau-
rim but lack Of space forbids. All
wen say of Allen is, that when
we want to hear jokes wen buy
a copy Of Puck, and get them
without the whiskers. Taking
advantage of a gold bug town,
with a gold bug paper, some as
pirants for governor, tried to
roast McLaurin, as of course did
Allen. He sat unmoyed, and
whenfhis time came, addressed
an Allen crowd. When he fin
ished, it was a McLaurin one.

lar to that of England in Egypt will
soon be realized.
1t may or may not be the destiny of
Cuba to gravitate into the system of
states which compose the American
union. That is matter of gratuitous
assumption. But that it is the desire
of the administration to round out its
imperial additions to the United States
with the annexation of Cuba can hardly
be gainsaid. The opposition to the con-
gressonal pledge of independence: the
arbitrary methods that have character
lied the administration of General
Brooke; the refusal to give the Cubans
any hope of immediate realization of
their desire for independence, these all
point to the conclusion in harmony
with the assertion of the imperialists
that Cuba is ripe for the plucking. The
franchise pickings are too tempting to
be allowed to escape.
With immense problems of internal
politics confronting the country, ques-
tions which touch nearly every organ
and function of our national life: with
a bitter race problem still unsettled:
with a multitude of industrial, social
and financial matters of prime import
ance demanding solution and adjust
ment. it seems as if the citizens of the
United States had troubles enough of
their own without bothering their
heads about the yellows, blacks and
browns of the tropics, and that is what
the people will say when they get a
chance to vote squarely on the issue
between the famboyant Imperialism of
Mckinley and Otis and sturdy honest
democracy of Washington. jefferson

Old FOgyism Defeated.

~HE automobile, like every inven-
ton of a revolutionary nature,
has had to fight its way against
conservative fossils whose grounds of
objection are difficult to formulate if,
indeed they have anything more tang
ible than a prejudice. The steam loco
motive asserted itself against all man.
ner of puerile argument, and in addi-
ton had to fight the supersttions of a
mob of peasants.
The bicycle had a similar experience
in some respects. First looked upon as
a unique toy, its patrons increased so
rapidly that it soon took on the pro-
| portions of a gigantic fad. as it was
termed by those who never knew the
enduring fascination of the sport or
appreciated the practical utility of the
wheel Only a few months ago we'll
known hOrseman had the temerity to
predict that the fad, as he called it.

or two would see the end of it. The
wheel has come to stay. Its vOtaries
are increasing rapidly and decreased
cost is placing it within the reach of
every one. 1t has made a place for
itself in modern life. and it has done
and is doing a world of good. May its
shadow never grow less.
1t is but natural to expect that the
automobile should meet with similar
fatuous opposition. Park commissions,

ism. When a man gets to be so old
