We think the usually sedate and dig
nified Vicksburg Post is presuming
upon the liberty of the press and tax
ing license when it couples the name
of Hon. w. J. Bryan, as President, of
whatsoever party ticket, with that of
Emma Goldman, the Anarchist, who is
out on $4,000 bond, The very name
of the woman should hardly be men
toned, much less should it be associa-
ted with that of a conscientious and
highly honored citizen of our com
monwealth. The unreasoning politi-
cal venom of the Post toward Mr..
Bryan has long since carried it beyond
decent bounds and made it fit asso-
ciate for the justly execrated Senator
Wellington, of Maryland.

How Our Governor Appears At
n Distance.

From the Cleveland Ohio, Plain
dealer. for which Hon. y. Lewenthal,
formerly of this city, has the editors
thanks, we take the following:
Gov. \. H. Longino, of Mississippi,
the first chief executive of a Southern
State to take a bold aud determined
stand on the question of lynching, was
in Cleveland yesterday.
Gov. Longino, with small party of
friends, is on his way to Buffalo and the
East. As he himself put it, Il have run
away from business for fifteen days
rest"
The Governor stopped in Cleveland
to visit A. Lewenthal, who was former
ly prominent citizen of Mississippi,
a close friend of Longino's and mem
Der of the State Senate.
During the afternoon B. Mailer
placed private car at the disposal of
the party and personally escorted them
over the city. Last evening the Gov
ernor and his party were entertained
at the Excelsior Club by Mailer, Lew
enthal and other prominent Cleve-
landers. At the close of the dinner
Governor Longino consented to be in
terviewed.
Gov. Longino became famous within
the past year by his determined stand
1rn in q a
startled the country by his sternly ex
pressed determination to hold to strict
accountability all officers who allowed
prisoners 20 be taken from them with
out doing the utmost, even to the loss
of their own lives, in an effort to de
fend them. He coupled preaching and
practice when he hurried to Carrollton
as fast as special trains could take him
to face in person a bloodthirsty mob
with demand and appeal for law en-
forcement He disliked to discuss the
subject, however.
"The question of these outbreaks is
too large matter to handle in an in
telNleW, He Sdlu. L mere Is HOIHlHB
new could say about it.
Lynch law is not confined to the
South. 1t is not a local question.
Such outbreaks are apt to occur any
where.
"Of course the presence of the negro
in the South complicates the problem.
But know this to be fact; There is
strong and widespread feeling down
there that the law must be enforced.
There is a growing and ever stronger
public sentiment against such out
RACES. This influence will solve the
problem"
When asked his opinion i'll regard to
the action taken by the meeting of
Wednesday night that Congress pass
general laws suppressing Anarchy and
lynching, the Governor said:
81 can only repeat that better pub
lie sentiment, stronger demand for
law enforcement is already doing the
work. The South, if left to herself,
will solve the problem. She is doing
it now.
an no section of the country is there
a stronger feeling against violence, law
breaking and Anarchy among the bet
ter classes. The question is to control
the rough elements. We are doing
that now"

A recent Clarion Ledger special
from Holly Springs says: Judge Low
rey in his charge to the grand jury,
was very specific and very stringent.
A great deal of the new law which had
never before been charged here was
included. He directed the grand jury
to find indictments against vendors of
certain medicines; he called their at
tention to the fact that an express
agent was indictable for delivering
liquor in COD. packages. He mention
ed that it was an indictable offense to
deface, disfigure or mar any public
building, school house or church; also
that it was indictable to misbehave at
public worship. His charge was com
prehensive and thorough. He partic-
ularly emphasized his remarks con
corning gaming and drinking"

Ben Smith, aged ii, died from the
effects of a rattlesnake bite at San
Angelo, Texas. He was ten miles
away from home and when he finally
reached it, he was in such condition
that nothing could be done to save
him. His symptoms were similar to
those of hydrophobia.

This is day of biography or Of The
Life and Letters Plague" as Andrew
Lang has it. 1t is literary fashion.
But how far biographers fail in giving
the real life of their subjects will never
be known. Will autobiography ever be
as willingly pursued or written? Will
real lives ever appear, to be read of all
men? The surface events of existence
are monotonously similar; but who
can or would draw the veil aside that
hides the human heart? And here is
the very fountain of life. With all the
lives of men that ever were written, We
still see as through glass darkly, and
each life that still lives has it's own
problems to solve, its own difficulties
to overcome, its own sorrows to bear,
entirely independent Of any other that
ever has been or ever will be. And yet
we are interested enough, or curious
enough, to want to know as much as
possible Of fellow-travelers along the
same highway. and so the biog rapby
proceeds.

When the average novel writer

which he has no appropriate name,
he usually refers to them MS being
"mingled," and this, perhaps, better
than anything else. reflects the condl-
ton Of a man when be first becomes o
father.
Coupled with the feeling Of intense
pride that comes to you as one of the
interested parties in such a momen-
tous event, is the kindred feeling of
utter insignificance you also have.
which acts as an antidote.
After being ordered out of the room
by the doctor and the trained nurse
you wander almlessly down a side
street, although you cannot for the life
OF you tell what there is to be ashamed
nt-and us you approach your office
you grow more and more uneasy.
And yet, while there is guilt written
all over your fnce. there wells up in
your heart n veritable fountain Of In
tense egotism, which is Immediately on
tap to the first moment OF confidence.
But all things have an end. At the
end of month, while you are Mt your

in. slaps you on the back and shouts
well, old man, how is the baby" And
