Politics For 1903.

Next year there will be ''great
rattling of dry bones" in the polit-
ical field. Everything is quiet
and serene now, but it is only the
calm which precedes the Storm, for
VIC are going to baye it hot and
heavy next year. All the state of
fees and county Offices are to be
filled from governor to constable.
There will be spirited competition
in the great primary which will be
held under our state primary law
Great interest will undoubtedly be
excited by the great cloud OF can
didates. For the first time in the
history of this grand old common
wealth, every Democratic voter
will have say i'll the selection of
state officials. The vote of the
plowboy will weigh as heavily as
that of the millionaire. 1t Will be
a great day when the Democratic
masses in every county in the state
shall march to the ballot box, for
nearly everyone will be there. If
Crumpacker & Co., think Missis-
sippians take no interest in poIiti-
cal questions they should study the
returns of that colossal primary.
Other questions than individual
preferences will be submitted for
arbitration and are already being
discussed, for instance, state pro-
hibition and apportionment of
school funds, and these questions
will add fuel to the already big
confagration.

EDITORIAL.

Thos. B. Reed of Maine, better
known as the "Czar," on account
of his arbitrary rulings when
speaker of the house,is dead. Mr..
Reeds death is said to have been
the results of his efforts to get rid
of his enormous corpulency. He
took the Turkish bath day after
day until he had reduced his flesh
so pounds. He was very much re-
joiced and proud of his achieve
ment, but it weakened him, physi
cally, until he was unable to stand
the shock of disease. Reed was a
man of strong mental powers, in
clined to be dictat orial, but honest
and patriotic.

Bountiful HarveStS,

A wagon loaded with fine corn
was standing in front OF the post
Office, one day last week. Two
men, one the farmer who brought
the corn to town from Bear cree k
and the other farmer from near
Burnsville were discussing the fine
quality OF corn.
"Yes," said the Burnsville man,
''it is very fine, we'll developed,
sound and plump. | never saw
better corn than that this years
growth. And the yield, too, is
enormous. Why, some of ny
neighbors, who cultivate the ordi-
nary, thin ridge land Of the coun-
try, speak of gathering 40 to so
bushels of good corn to the acre,
yet some are not satisfied and speak
of the crop as tolerably good! l
know one man who has gathered
4 bales of cotton from 5 acres and
has still some scattering cotton to
pick"
"Well," said the Bear creeker;
81 have sold about all the corn Im
going to at 4Octs. l had to sell
enough to pay my debts at that
price, and have still 400 bushels
lett. All | hate about it is that l

land, but | had no idea of the great
farming year we were going to
have. Two years of successive
failures kept me from planting it" +"

A Great riistake.

The following liueS may not be
correctly quoted, but are nearly
so.
"Man dressed in a little brief
authority, cuts such fantastic ca
pers before High Heaven,a as makes
angels weep"
There are many people in this
commonwealth who believe these
lines peculiarly applicable to Mr..
Dunbar Rowland, director of the
department of. archives and histo-
ry created by the last session of
the legislature.
Said bill lecites that this depart
ment is to be devoted to the collec-
ton of historical data of this state
and the encouragement Of research
and diffusion of knowledge with re-
lation to the same. Dunbar Row
land was appointed "archivist," so
to speak He is young man,
whose chief claim to prominence
was the writing of sundry articles
for the daily press on financial
questions, during the last two pres
idential campaigns. Mr.. Rowland
seems disposed to magnify his of
fee. so much so that he has taken
the liberty to write to Robert Lin
coin. son of President Lincoln, ask
ing for the latter's portrait to
adorn the 'Hal of Fame" in the
new capitol building, to which Rob
ert Lincoln has replied granting
the request. Both these letters
have been published and the con-
tents generally known to our read
ers.
Now, no one is disposed to dis
pute the position that Abraham
Lincoln occupies as a great hlstori-
cal figure, but what connection he
can have with relation to Mississip-
pi history, past or prescnt,ls what
puzzles nearly everyone. The
state of Mississippi has a galaxy
of great men. dead and living, more
than sufficient to fill every niche
and corner af the Hall of Fame, SO
there was no need to draw upon
other sections for material. No
wonder, then, that the action of Mr..
Rowland has drawn upon him adj
verse criticism of the motives
prompting his remarkable action.
We like to see energy and enthu-
siasm displayed by the estate Ar
chivist," but we think that they
should be bounded by the limita-
tions of the act creating the Office.
If Mr.. Rowland we're acting for
Kentucky or Illinois his action
would be consistent with his au-
thority, but as Mississipplan it is
plain that be has overstepped the
boundary and made u huge mis-
take. Let the hall be filled with
portraits of eminent Mississip-
mans.

important Real Estate Deal.

An important real estate deal was
consummated last week, by which
Mr.. Victor Bour becomes the owner
OF the brick church at the southeast
corner Of Eighteenth and Main
streets. 1t is his intention to over
haul the building aud convert 1t into
modern fats. This is move that
will add to the appearance Of the
property, and will be appreciated by
those who live 10 the neighborhood.
The building was erected by the
Northern Presbyterians, and used by
them for a couple Of years. 1t was
then purchased by Mr.. S. G.. Went
worth, and the Wentworth Military
Academy was begun, and for several
years conducted 10 the building. The
Academy outgrew the building, and
erected the handsome quarters now
occupied, leaving the old church
vacant. It was then rented to some
coIored people for church purposes,
and was so used for number Of
years, and one or two colored families
lived in the lower rooms. Mr. Bour
win doubtless make II a valuable
piece Of property.

Before the solemnization Of the
marriage Bishop Montgomery gave
some sage advice IN regard to the life
upon which the couple were about to
enter.
After congratulations came the
elaborate wedding breakfast. The
dining room was in white. A canopy
Of long white streamers Of tule was
above the table which was decorated
with lovely clusters of the pure white
dainty sweet peas and asparagus ferns.
Dainty heart-shaped name cards in
water cOlors were at each plate.
After the breakfast came toasts,
the Bride" was by Professor Charles
Noble, Of Berkeley, the response was
by Prof. Chase, who proposed a toast
to the mother, Mrs. Younger
Father McNamee aud Bishop
Montgomery followed with remarks
very appropriate for the occasion.
The marriage is the elimination Of
a very pretty romance, the bride and
groom meeting while studying in
Europe at the University at Cot
tingen, Germany.
The bride is an only daughter and
her place will be a sadly vacant one
at her home as she has been a devoted
daughter. She is young lady of
culture and refinement. She grad
uated from the Santa Cruz high
school in the class Of '93 and with
honors from Stanford University in
the class Of '97, since finishing her
course at college with the exception
Of two years, she has been instructor
in the history department Of the Santa
Cruz high school. The two years we're
spent In travel and study 10 Europe.
Mr.. Chase is a graduate of Oberlin
College, at Rome, and has been a pro-
fessor in the University Of Iowa.
He now holds the professorship of
Latin and Greek in Elmhurst College
at Richmond, Ind.
Mr.. and Mrs. Chase left on the
afternoon train on their wedding trip.
