Greenville. Miss, June l5.-Dem0.
Gratis OF Washington county met in

house. The courthouse would not
hold the crowd and the convention
was held In the court yard.
Leroy Percy, ESQ, offered the fol-
lowing, which was adopted:
Resolved, That, having full conf
dence in the character and ability Of
the Senator and Representatives this
day nominated by this convention to
properly represent the Democracy Of

they in common with the Democracy
Of this county feel that the admins
tration Of A. J. McLaurin as governor
Of Mississippi has brought ridicuIe
upon the State abroad and humilia-
tion on the citizens OF the State at
home, and that it is not such an ad.
ministration as is deserving Of en-.
dorsement at the hands Of the people
of the State by elccting A. J. Nc

United States Senate; therefore we
send them to represent our county

HOME.PRINT VS.. "PATENT."

National Printer Journalist.
1t is the desire OF the National
Printer-JOurnalist to fairly discuss all
sides of the newspaper business in its
columns, without fear or favor. The
"patent inside' and "all-lome- print"
question Is an important one and the
cause Of much discussion. Short ar
ticles on this subject will be printed
giving both sides OF the questiOn-if
mailed to this department. The Che
Ian Wash Weekly Leader prints the
following:
Some Of the superior" sheets who
have one side of their papers printed
away from home delight in sneering
at the all-home- printed paper. But
let's see. os
The 'patent" costs the user over
three times as much as the bare white
paper does. -
A favorite fling at the home.print is
because of its "forelgn" or patent
medicine ads. But the "patenl' sheet
contains these same foreign ads, and
the "patent" publisher collects the
income therefrom; the reader has to
put up with them just the same, and
the editor who uses the "patent" not
only loses the income aforesaid and
the control of the advertising space
so occupied, but also pays the auxllia-
ry.sheet furnishcr for the blessed priv.
ilege of losing it! Whereas the all.
home-print editor controls his own
space, sells 1t at more or less remun
erative rates to advertisers, pockets
the income, and edits his paper him
self.
But the chief advantage claimed
for the "patent" Is that it furnishes
so much more "news" than the home
print can afford to. Does II?
In the first place, with very few ex-
ceptions, the subject matter OF the
"patent" is stale enough TO be nause-
Gus before 1t reaches the readers,
whereas the home-editcd matter Is
fresh and newsy.
In the second place what the home.
print lacks in quantity it nearly al.
ways makes up in its club offers Of
outside newspapers, newer, fresher,
and fuller than any "patent" could
possibly be.
The home-print paper commcnds
itself to advertisers as y nswspa pei
that will be read. and carries with Il
an air Of enterprise and life that i
altogether lacking in the padded ''pat
ent" insides or outsides.
There " no good argument Ia fav0
OF using q "patent," except It be il
favor OF the "patent" furnisher.
| There is every reason why, othe
things being equal, the business ma
and enterprislng town and discriin
mating reader should prefer the al
!. hOme.prlnt newspaper.

No matter where they 80, the build
inc OF the several roads through
sou tbeast Mississippi will open up one
of the finest long leaf pine regions in
the world. That part Of the STATE 20
long inaccessible, because Of no rail-

richest sections Of the whole South.
Its forests are almost inexhaustible.
The railroads will also extend this

Judging from the following medical
"experts" would do well to steer clear
of the Sardis Reporters premises:

even reported that there is yellow
fever 10 Mississippi, we want to advise
and warn everybody 10 be calm. II
you have pain, much or little, 10 your
head or toe, or anywhere, betwixt and
between grin and bear it in silence,
for II you groan one Of the allwise
experts will diagnose your case and
pronounce it yellow fever and then
goodbye to everything except blue
devils We don't carry, concealed
weapons but we have double barrel
gun in our room loaded for experts" /"

An applicant for license to act as

Rats annoyed the family of Johann
Welreck, at Indian Valley, Idaho. He
laid poison in places near their haunts,
and In a few days his wife and three
children became dangerously i'll. The

in it.
Some one informed Robert J. F.
Copeland, of this city, that holding q
small quantity of carbolic acid in the
mouth was remedy for the toothache.
He tried it, and the acid so panied him
that, while gasping for breath, he swal-

dead.
Mice are fond of music. This fact
suggested to an ingenious mechanic the

wander into the trap, and are easily
caught.

An Important Convention of the Wool
Growers-Matters of Importance
Discussed-The Allotment
Plan Adopted
The closing session of the Wool
growers meeting was held, as an
nounced, in the Umatilla House par
lor at o'clock Monday evening.
Capt. Ormsby arrived on the Spo-
kane flyer and was present at the meet
ing. He informed the wool growers
that the department OF the interior had
decided on the allotment plan, and
that each sheepraiser would have the
privilege of leasing certain amount
of summer range land. AS yet it has
not been decided as to what the rental
price would be, but he was of the opinion
that it would not exceed one cent per
head. A vote was taken on this matter
in order to ascertain as to whether or
not this rate was satisfactory to the
sheepmen, and was favored by the ma
jority of those present.
The question of the length of time
for which these lands would be leased
was discussed. Many held that five
years was sufficient time, while some
voted still longer period. Two years
was favored by the majority. however,
and this time may be extended.
Fred W. Wilson then moved that
the men who have at present allot-
ments of lands be allowed to haye the
preference of leasing the same, aud
the motion carried unanimously.
Captain Ormsby stated that he could
promise nothing definitely as these
suggestions may be over-ruled by the
department..
A vote of thanks was rendered by
the association to the Dalles CONNER
cial club for the use of the club rooms,
to Messrs. SinDott & Fish for their
kindness in allowing them the use of
their parlor in which to hold last even
ipg's session, and to Capt. Ormsby for
his attendance and the interest he took
in their meeting.
The sheepmen, many of whom left
for their homes this morning, are ap
parently we'll pleased with the result
of the meeting.

PROUD OF HIS RECORD.


He Fought Down the Symptoms OF
Genius.
Isuppose there is great deal OF un-
recognized genius in the world" re-
marked the literary young woman.
"Yes, indeed" replied her father, as
he looked up from the trade paper;
"lots and lots of it. People are great
deal more sensible these days than they
used to be-"
"You mean they are more sensible
because they have SO much unrecog-
nized genius?" she queried in surprise.
''That's it, precisely" Taking off his
glasses and balancing them on his fore
finger, he went on: Il remember when
1 was a boy had a great talent for
music. cou,d remember almost any
tune 1 eyer heard, and play it on
mouth-harp. And draw pictures?
Many is the picture / have drawn. So
hard is it to curb genius THAT lots of
times l would find myself drawing pic
lures on my slate instead of doing my
arithmetic"
"How unfortunate that you couldn't
have cultivated your talentsf"
"Not a bit of it; not a bit of it. was
peculiarly fortunate. The trouble
with too many geniuses is. THAT they
don't have common sense. Now, was
different. I profted by my oppor-
tunities. You can't get a common
school education without finding out
what is likely to happen to a. man as
soon as the world picks him out as
genius. Go right along through the
list of them. They are always selling
pictures or poems or musical compost
tions for less than the market value.
People somehow expect it of them. And
it's mighty seldom that one gets rich.
As soon as l discovered that had any
symptoms of genius, I fought them
down. battled with myself and went
into the livery stable business. By be-
ing cautious and attending to business
arrived at a position of comparative

around me and feel that it
