Mushrooms may not be very COM
mon delicacy served at the tables of
Grenada's epicures, but they are surely
as savory a relish as could tempt the
palate Of any connoisseur of good
things. 1t may have escaped the at
tention of housekeepers, still it is
fact that this delicious fungus grows
in no stinted abundance in the cellars
and out-of.the-way attachments to
many Of our homes. The mushroom is
of spontaneous growth, and sprouts
only in darkness, or in dark places.

Old Monroe county will present the
name OF one Of her sons for recognition
Of her stalwart faith In unalloyed DEM
acracy. She will offer the claim Of
Mr.. E. J. Smith 70 the nomination for
State Auditor, and In 90 doing gratify-
ingly points to his unblemished record
as dutiful subordinate during the in
cumbency>of Hon. W. W. Stone and
Hon. w. D. Holder, while serving In
the capacity Of bookkeeper. His long
experience, intimate knowledge Of the
routine Of the duties pertaining to the
responsible office, and familiarity With
the volume Of its intricate affairs, be-.
speaks bis unquestioned qualifications.
He has been tried during two ad.
ministrations, and the fidelity to his
obligations, as we'll as prompt service,
have impressed the pages Of the
States archives with uniading testi-
mony Of his usefulness and worth.
Mr.. Smith is q native Of Chickasaw
county, but for nearly twenty-five
years has been citizen Of Monroe,
identified with its interests and
growth. He is yet in TIE flush Of q
promising manhood, and his career has
been marked by his attachment to the
Democratic party, for whose supremacy
he has battled with rare courage and
consistency. His home paper, the
Aberdeen Examiner, vouchsafes to
him deserved tribute In supporting
his candidacy for the nomination, as
will be seen elsewhere,

The war tax has SO seriously affected
the output of beer in St. Louis that the
brewing company OF that city has

throwing out. of employment fifteen

labor in an overstocked centre of trade
will entail untold misery upon six

Lieut.. Gov. J. 81. Joues, in which he
consents to the use Of his name as a

dorsement from the Woodville Repub-

Is preeminent among the sons of Mis-

ROAD ovERsEERs. CONFERENCES.

There are about ninety road over
seers 10 the county Of Grenada. Al
residents of the district over which
their supervision extends, they are
directly familiar with the conditions
which suggest the need Of substantial
thoroughiares. Unfortunately, the
utensils with which they and their
neighbors are supplied are Ill adapted
to efficient eervice in improving the
roads or keeping them in repair. A
shovel or spade, possibly pick or
some other clumsy contrivance is the
extent Of their equipment. Modern
appliances, such as scrapers, are com.
paratively unknown TO them. Under
this disadvantage their labor is pro.
ductive Of but scanty results. The
roads cannot be maintained In perma-
neutly good condition. As a consc-
quence they are neglected, and will
continue 10 be dilapidated reminders
Of good intent and shabby execution.
Their interest in good roads il abid-

weeks must convince them Of the det.
rimeut they suffer from isolation. For
they are, under existing circumstan>
ces, practically shut off from communi.
cation with the centers Of trade. Mer.
chants and business people generally
share with them the privations 20
which they are mutually subjected. A
suggestion at this juncture is there's
lore, timely. The overseers might,
with the certainty of good results, fix
a day for holding conference, when,
by exchanging views on the question
Of improving the roads, bringing into
play their experience and intelligent
knowledge of the wants and needs Of
The farmers, they could devise the best

ESSENCE OF A JOKE.

The announcement Of Mr.. ]. L. Gill
lespie, editor Of the Greenwood Enter
prise. as candidate for the nomination
TO the Office Of State Treasurer rounds
the number Of State candidates from
that bailtwick TO full trio. Green
wood has never been taunted with a
surplus Of modes.y, but three caudi-
dstes for State Offices within hailiug
distance Of each other is stretching
modest reserve to an India rubber
springiness that will make itself felt in
the rebound. Only three candidates,
and perhaps more are yet to be heard
from, 10 . town Of ordinary mag
nitude! Notwithstanding Mr.. Giles
pie Is at the helm Of an influential jour-
nal, whose coruscat!ons Of wit, combin.
ed with flashes Of profound thoug ht,
lift 1t to the pinnacle Of advanced jour-
nalism in the State, not to speak Of the
many Offices he has heli and still
olings to, his ambition is Elusive. The
SENTINEL, more in sorrow than anger,
foretells that even though he should
carry his own county and receive num-
berless newspaper puffs, he will doubt
lees lag behind some other candidates
throughout the Stale. He will turn
up a dead duck. The very thought
that a newspaper rounder should te

what Mark Twain would call ''sar.

MIR. 4. r, O'BRYANT.

1t has been an honored tradition O
the Democratic party to give sxpces
sion to its confidence in faithful public
officials. by a reelection for at least i.
second term. This course is prompted
by desire to manifest its approval O
we'll sustained merit and devotion tt
duty, at the same time to retain the
services OF those whose competence
and efficiency offer a guarantee of a
useful and Trustworthy incumbency.
"Ohce is a public trust" has passed
into proverb, and is accepted as a
truism. This adage has been exempli-
fed signally by Mr.. T. T. O'Bryant,
chancery clerk of Pamela county, who
is candidate for the nomination TO
the office he now adorns, for second
term. His title 10 the distinction,
though strengthened by the many ami
able qualities that distinguish him,
is predicated upon his exceptional fit
ness for the office, to which the expe-
rience of term has contributed large.
ly to his acknowledged qualifications.
Prompt in the discharge of the obliga.
tions resting upon him, clever in his
grasp of the full meaning of his cleri-
cal duties, and vigilantin protecting
the interests contided to him, his re-
tention in the Office would give assur-
ance OF a continued service, empha-
sized BY tested ability aud dlgnified by
high personal character. He is ever
clever and accommodating to his cong
stituents and friends, and it is bat just
that such deserving and capable gen.
tleman should be endorsed by the good
old county OF Pamela, whose people
ale as appreciative as that of any in the
State. We have known Mr.. O'Bryant
for years-hence we know whereof We
speak.
