Among the prominent visitors
TO Rosedale the past week was MIR.
q. q. Eckford, Of Aberdeen, the
genial and clever special agent of
the Mississippi Fire Association.
Mr.. Eckfor is one of the best
known men of the State and has
long been prominent in the coun-
ellis of the Democratic party. For
several years he served as United
States consul at Kingston, jam
aica. Mr.. Eckford has been prom
inently mentioned as probable
candidate for Secretary of State,
but we are not advised as to his
intentions in the matter. But,
should he yield to the solicitations
of his friends and become a can
didate, we venture to predict that
the man who defeats him will cap
tpre the office. While here Mr.
Eckford enjoyed trip to the
Ozark Hunting Club grounds and
was charmed with our magnificent
river scenery. He left Saturday
for jackson, Miss. Bolivar County
Democrat.

Christmas Cheer.

The opportunity to obtain high
er quality pure Old Lincoln County
Whiskey for the holiday season is
offered by the American Supply
Co., distillers, Memphis, Tenn, at
the very low price of S3.45 for five
full bottles. express prepaid. Their
offer elsewhere in this issue also
states proportionally lower prices
for the same grade goods in larger
quantities. This old established
distillery is headquarters for pure
sideboard goods for the home, and
deals direct with the people, thus
saving them the intermediate
profits that arise between distiller
and consumer in the usual chan
nels of retail trade.

The election in Monroe county
Tuesday was a tame affair end
passed without disturbance of any
kind. not even spirit enough being
evinced to form the basis Of cam
paign argument. At ell the pre-
cincts the figures show that only
those in the immediate vicinity Of
the polling booths took the trouble
to cast their ballots Only about
one-third OF the registered vote
was polled, and it would scarcely
have reached that proportion but
for the opposition that had crys-
talized against the proposition TO
authorize the board of supervisors
TO proceed with the building of a
new Jail. That measure was de-
feated by decisive majority, con-
sidering the small vote: cast, and
some other method must be adopt
ed if the county is to have new
prison house. Mr.. Gambler. the
most popular proposition on the
ballot and without opposition,
seems to have run behind the
ticket, but that is accounted for
by the fact that many voters i'm
agine that when single name ap-
pears for an office his election il
conceded and the name will be
counted whether marked or not
hence do not trouble to indicate
that he is being voted for. This
result under the Australian ballot
system will always be noted in
cases where no opposition candi-
date appears. Below is a tabulat-
ed report giving the vote at each
precinct and the reader can ascer.
tain the sentiment of each neigh.
borhood and probably assign reas
ons for the faith that was in it.

Dispatches from jackson state
that the board of control at its
next meeting will probably elect
DIR. Sol. Mcdowell as warden OF
the penitentiary to succeed Capt. j.
NJ. Parchman. DIR. Mcdowell has
had the management of the large
Richardson estate the last twenty
years and is said to be most com
petent man for the place. Ii is
also stated that Mr.. Parchman's
only desire for some time past to
continue in the position was for
complete vindication from the
charges that were being preferred
against him and his management
of the States affairs. He said as
much to this writer three months
ago. and is probably of the same
frame of mind now.

1t can scarcely be said of Mr.. G.
Nj. Schwab. president of the United
States Steel Corporation that
much learning hath made him
mad" He manifestly needs the
constant and serious admonition
of his friends and should not take
amiss the gentle and restraining
advice of those persons who are
able TO influence him-if there be
any such.
Mr.. Schwab seems to belong to
that exceedingly large class of the
community which finds it difficult
to stand prosperity. 1t was once
said by a shrewd observer that
ANY man can stand adversely, by
heavens, because he has to. but the
real test of character is whether a
man can stand prosperity or not. y
And Carlyle has said: "Adversity
is sometimes hard upon a man; but
for one man who can stand pros
perity there are a hundred that
will stand adversely" Mr. Schwab
does not seem to be able to stand
the severe test of prosperity. 1t
has quite undone him.
From the day Mr.. Schwab was
elected president of the steel cor
poration until now he has been
cutting up antics before high heav-
en- which have made the angels
weep, and have filled his friends
with am cement and alarm. His
first outbr. aking performance was
at Monte Carlo. In spite of all de-
mails, it is true that he played reck-
lessly. 1t was not an edifying
spectacle-that Of the president of
the United States Steel Corpora
ton playing at the biggest gam
bling establishment in the world,
where at his own request the "lim-
it" had been removed. As lesson
to the other employees of the steel
corporation and to young men in
general it was not only democrat
izing but dangerous. This WAS
merely the prelude to the startling
and eccentric acts in his subsc
quent career. He has thrown away
his money recklessly, ostentatious-
ly senselessly. One report says
that he is building a house to cost
S2,500,OO0. Another credits him
with purchasing an entire summer
resort. He has given church to
a town which his father honor, {
by living in it. He has bougl.
yachts and automobiles and mad
silly displays OF regal bounty Il
servants, beggars and freaks.
Mr.. Schwab's career abroad, as
it is now almost daily reported, is
not such as commends itself to
American good taste or educated
Judgment. If he is not developing
symptoms of cerebral alteration
he is coming dangerously near to
it. He needs short season in the
cooling room and the application
of congresses to his fevered brow
until he gets well.-Chicago Trib
une.

Warden Parchman Exonerated.

The hearing of charges against
Warden Parchman of the peniten-
tiary, was conducted by the Board
OF Control Monday. which result
ed in his complete exoperation.
The matter is thus reported by the
Memphis Commercial Appeal bu-
reau correspondent:
The board of control this after
noon decided the Parchman case.
1t found that neither of the charges
against the warden was sustained
and no development sust aimed his
discharge. The board found his
explanation of why he cashed the
McInnis draft for $3.50 at Aber-
deem satisfactory and accepted the
proof offered as to the final dispo-
sition of the money in the two
mule trades and the purchase OF
Winchester rifles for the new State
farm. The testimony also wholly
failed to sustain the charge that
the warden attempted to suppress
the books of the Levy place from
the penitentiary investigating com.
mittee. but, on the contrary, show
ed that all books were promptly
produced on demand. The board
stated that it had developed thai

At the general election Tuesday
the Democrats did not accomplish
all the results that had confidently
been expected, having failed to Sc
cure a majority in the House o.
Representatives and to- place New
York again in its proper position
in the column. The Republican
majority, however, has been re-
duced from 4 at present TO about
L. In the fifty-eighth Congress,
Notwithstanding the apportion
ment by the last census increases
the membership from 3o7 to $50.
Very few defeats were suffered
where the Democrats had an estab-
lished claim on a district, while
gains covered wide range of ter
ritory in the Eastern and Western
States, five or more in New York
and several in the South. The
Democrats will also gain four seats
in the United States Senate, re
ducing the present Republican ma
jority from 20 to 10.
The closest contest was in New
York and the returns are conclu-
sive that the Empire State was
ready TO renew its allegiance to
the Democracy but for the strong
personal opposition to David IL.
Hill who assumed leading and
dictatorial position throughout the
campaign. Many able and infiu-
entail Democrats would have been
found la boring in the renks who

Tuesday was question of doubt
up To- our latest reports.
Here in Mississippi only Con
gressmen were to be elected and
there was no opposition to the
Democratic candidates in any oil
the eight districts. The campaign
for our nominees was made at the
primaries last summer, involving
only a question of choice between
popular aud able aspirants. There
was not "A vestige of the old popu-
list and greenback elements in ev-
idence throughout the campaign,
and the Republicans did not care
to- incur the expense of placing Il
ticket in the field for the sake OF
seeing il ignobly defeated.
The three proposed amendments
to the Mississippi constitution
were overwhelmingly defeated by
actual ballots cast against them
They would have been rejected
anyway had the voters passed along
without voting on them at all. for
the constitution requires an af-
firmative majoritysof all the votes
cast in order to carry an amend
ment.
The lesson of Tuesday teaches
unerringly that the country is
ripening for reputation of the
ruinous policies of the Republican
party, and when another expires
sion is heard through the ballot
box it will not only be emphatic
ally rebuked but dethroned from
the power which it has so unblush-
ingly and insolently abused.
