Colonel Lynde drove into the hamlet OF
Avoca and, jumping from the blackboard,
hastened into the hotel The bar room was
redolent of smoke and full of border men and
in the midst of the largest group stood Davis.
Every man was accounted a man of expert

Lynde. for reasons best known to himself,
had never carried a gun, but he had one
thing-nerve--and plenty OF it. He walked
over to Toothpick Davis and pushed him
aside. remarking in loud voice that he
would kill him on sight II he crossed his
path again. He then proceeded upstairs and
to bed; this was not pleasant, and the gang
proceeded to liquor up, making things
lively, and a man was shot in room be-
meath Colonel Lynde. Early next morning
Lynde went into the othce, which was a
long, narrow room, with a railing at one
end Suddenly there was commotion in
the street. Davis burst in the door, reeled
in with revolver in each hand, and, with
an oath, asked for Colonel Lynde. The latter
leaped over the railing, and drawing his
huge old fashioned pocketbook from his hip
pocket, started for Davis, shouting, I've got

Hon, John r. DinSmore.

Hon, John R. Dinsmore, of Macon,
who has served in the House of the state
legislature with such distinguished abil
ity since 1899, will, we learn, probably
ask his people to send him to the Senate
this year. Mr. Dinsmore has been spo-
ken of as a probable candidate for Gu,
bernatorial honors, his splendid execu
tive ability being recognized, He was
also suggested rs the proper man for At
torney General, being known rs a pros
found lawyer. But Mr.. Dinsmore is
yet a young man and is doing well at
home and has decided not to ask for any
Of the several state offices, any Of which
he could capably fill ana has decided to
submit his name for State Senator from
NoXubee county, Noxubec has had very
able delegations in tho state legislature
for years. In 1899 Dinsm1re, O'Neill
and Madison were in the House and a
stronger delegation could not be found
from any county, Madison is dead: o.
NELL removed to Columbus, where he
has already become 4 prominent figure
in politics while Dinsmore has remained
ia Legislative harness, growing in wis
dom with continued lauor, until he is
recognized by those wha have watched
his course as oae Of the most practical
statesmen and most capable legislators
of the state, While it is not our fight
and we know that Noxubee county is
the home of many capable and worthy
men, we can but express the opinion,
formed after years Of close observation,
that John R. Dinsmere is the man the
people Of Noxubee county should send
to the Senate if he desires the place.

A concurrent resolution amending
section 206 of the constition drawn
up by Senator Hardy of Meridian.
is printed in the last issue of the
HattiesburgProgress. The statement
Is made that it will probably be in
troduced in the next session of tbc
legislature The amendment pro.
vldes that there shall bel Il common
school fund not exceeding 800, 000
which shall be distributed on the
basis of thesnumber of educable chill
dren in the county. 1t provides fur
Their that there shall be a county
common school fund composed of
the poll taxes collected in the county
and an additional sum from the n
raj fund of the treasury, which add
ell to the state distribution, will be
sufficient to maintain the county
schools for at least four months. At
present. the whole common school
appropriation Of $955, 900 is distri-
buted on a ssbasis Of the number Of
educable children in the county. The
resolution given substantially above
is for the purpose of correcting Ger
tam alleged inequalities that exist
among the counties by giving the
counties the exclusive benefit of
their poll taxes in addition to the
State distribution, and also the adj
vantage of any special county fund
that may be raised. The State tax.
which now goes into the general
fund for prorata distribution, would
OF course, be proportionately di-
minished with the decrease iu the
State appropriation, thus rendering
the raising OF special county funds
an easy task.

Opening of the State Campaign,

WINoyA, Mss, March 16.-Thisyhas
been a memorable day in Mississippi
politics, All the candidates for state
offices and the majority of the politician,
from all over the state are here.
John Allen did not reach here until I
O'Clock, he having been left in Mem
phis.
The Governor reached here yesterday
afternoon and has been the recipient of
much attention by his friends and sup.
porters from all sections of the state.
There are fully six thousand people here
representing all classes and sections g.
Owing to the absence of Mr.. Allen the
programme was changed, the morning
being occupied with speeches by the
candidates for governor, all of whom
made good impressions and were most
cordially received,
Every one is looking forward with ca.
gerness to the discussion between the
candidates for senator, Governor Nc
Laurin and John Allen, The Governor
is feeble but will let Mr.. Allen and his
opponents know that he has been to the
Winona meeting before night. The
general opinion among the politicians is
that no mar or combination of men can
~
defeat Governor McLaurin for the sen
ate.
Your correspondent has reliable in
formation that John Sharp Williams will
not be a candidate, and will so announce
this afternoon.
The opposition to the governor in this
section seems to be in the towns, while
the country people are for him almost
solidly. If there should be a primary
election the race is all over shut the
counting.
