The encampment nj Biloxi Is
said to be the largest assem- blage OF
the state troops in the history oil
the National Guard, and the people
of the town are eXerting them
selves to make everything pleasant

We predict that the demonstration
made by the soldier boys at this
encampment will have the effect of
securing a respectable appropria-

Candidates and the Press.

From the tone of the press of
Mississippi it is to be inferred that
in the campaign for nominations
next year, the exploiting of candi-
dates is going TO be very restricted
and largely confined to the busi-
ness department of the newspaper.
This Is as it should be. " here,no
principle or measure of public
policy is involved, and nothing is
at stake save the individual for
tunes of aspirants for a certain of
fee. all of the same political party
a newspaper is no more justified
in giving its space to advance the
interests of any one of them than
in doing the same thing to promote
the business of any commercial
firm The candidate profits by the
publicity that the newspaper gives
so does the merchant; and both,
equally, should apply to the bust
ness office and not the editorial
rooms for space and pay for it AT
the same rate.
But above all things, the edito-
rial columns must be exempted
from this rule. That. space must
