The County Convention.

The Democratic party of Lezing-
ton county assembled in convention
in the court house, in this place, last
Monday. Twenty-seven OF the ~
clubs in the county were represented,
the unrepresented clubs being those
of Mates school house and Pellon.
It was a most representative body OF
men and was remarkable in that there
was not speech, not single debate
nor resolution, nor paper Of any
kind submitted to the convention.
Perhaps nothing like it was ever
witnessed in this county and prob
s5ly in this State before. From the
beginning to the end the convention
transacted the business for which 1t
was called in a harmonious and or
derly manner. The credit for this,
in q measure, was undoubtedly due
to the able and businesslike methods
of the Chairman, Hon. @. NJ. Eird:
who handled the convention the best
that we have ever seen 9 body OF
men controlled.
Promptly at II o'clock County
Chairman Spann called the conven-
ton to order and Hon. G. NJ. Efrd
was nominated and unanimously
elected temporary chairman and Jas.
B. Addy and Samuel B George tenn
porary secretaries.
On taking the chair Mr.. Efrd
thanked the convention for the honor
it had conferred upon him in calling
him to the chair. Heretofore he had
been a candidate seeking political
preferment; endeavoring to climb up
step by step and asking the support
of the people to assist him in doing
20. Now he was no longer caDdl-
date and asking nothing at their
hands except the continued conf
dence of his fellow citizens and the
honor was, therefore doubly appre-
cisted.
The delegates were then enrolled,

1t is pull Dick, pull devil between
Okolona and West Point for the
proposed Mobile and Ohio branch
road to be run from the main line to
Houston. 1t was proposed first to
run it from West Point, but of late
Okolona has awakened to her inter-
est and at a largely attended meeting
of the citizens the first of the week a
committee was appointed to wait
upon the managers of the road at
Mobile and induce them if possible
to run the road from that little city.
They are offering good inducements
and West Point will have to look to
her laurels or her sister neighbor will
get the road.

A report comes from Arkansas that
a negro was quietly lynched in that
state the other day. Now Arkansas
should not spoil everything by doing
such work on the quiet. 1t should
remember that at Corinth In this
state last Sunday evening a
negro was burned and there was
nothing quiet about it. It was a
public burning, which made ita kind
of burning shame, and all the people
in the surrounding country were in
vited and ladies who desired to see it
were provided for with comfortable
seats. The press dispatches sent out
word early IN the morning that there
was going to be fun in the old town
that day and everybody who could
to attend, even the governor of the
state, would be welcome; and would
witness a sight they did not witness

The Christian people over at Beau
mont are putting on considerable
airs here of late. They want to keep
up with others who inhabit that city
and who never stop to count the
cost when it comes to spending
money. The good brethren there are
building some church houses and
the like. The Baptists will soon
begin the erection of a $1,000 church
building and the Catholic people will
follow suit by building a cathedral to
cost the same while the Young
Mems Christian Association Will also
erect $4,000 building. Beaumont
must be good place for money, fine
buildings and some religion.

There is movement on foot among
some of the papers of the state to run
Gen. T. G. CatchIngs for governor.
We have not heard from Mr.. Catch
ings, but we have a second-h hand
Panama hat to bet that he would not
have the place if it were handed him
on platter. Mr.. Catchings has
served the people of the state well
and faithfully, but because he was a
sound money man and would not
accept the Kansas City platform he
was bounded after until he refused
to serve any longer in congress, pre-
fering TO live a private life ard prac-
tice his profession. With-the eXcep-
ton of a very few men who repre-
sented this state in the halls of con-
gress Gen. Catchings did more good
for the state than is likely to be
accomplished i'll many years by those
who sit I'm congress from this state
now. The state, though, would
be perfectly safe in his hand, but the
Progress will repeat that it does not
believe that he would accept it unless
it was made unanimous and without
the least scramble on his part.

Strikes, like the seven year itch,
seems to be catching. The striking
miners of Pennsylvania demanded s
dollar from each miner in Alabanla
to keep them up during the strike
and when the paymaster began to
take out the dollar on payday they
got mad and struck. 1t does not
seem to be very hard matter now
for a strike to break out in any part
of the country, and sometimes it Is
a wonder the Migrants of Hatties-
burg do not go out on astrike. They
would, but they are too lazy to do
the going-out act.

A correspondent of the Picayune
makes a novel suggestion which is
that the street car company of New
Orleans turn over it's property to the
city and the city run it as it's own
until the strike is ended and then
return the property to the company.
According to this suggestion every
time there was strike it would be
necessary for the street car line to be
turned over to the city. Why not
the city buy it outright and run it
as its own property and be done with
it? If it can settle the strike by tenn
pOrarily taking charge of it it cOul {

After all the birthday of Jefferson
Davis is to be honored by the laying
of the corner stone of the state house
on June 8, 1903. At meeting of the

very appropriate day and the people
of the state will rejoice that the time
has been set.

Just rs. it was ascertained for GER
tam that the governor would not call
an extra session of the legislature to
repeal the valued policy clause of the
insurance law.about one hundred ir--
responsible insurance companies
came to the front and proposed to
take out policies on all the cotton in
the state. They could afford it, for
they could not and did not expect to
pay cent of losses that might occur.
But the names of these companies
have been obtained and are to be

1t is said that every dog has his
day. Many of the southern cities are
making preparations to burn wood
this winter instead of coal as fuel for
fire and already some of them are
laying in a large supply. Thus it
will be seen that it has come the
wood dealers time to stick his hands
down into his Jeans pants pockets
and stretch forth smile as long as a
mans arm. All things come to him

The Meridian Press says all towns
must fight for what they want or
they won't get 1T. That is the reason
the Progress was SO persistent in
advocating old ''Bil Hardy" for con-
gress. We knew he would fight for
the best interests of Hattiesburg and
this section of the country. Doubt
less Mr.. Bowers VIII do great deal
of hard labor. but he may not putthe
same amount of vim in it for this city
that Capt. Hardy would have done.

Some. time ago the city council of
Jackson passed an order that each
policeman should Hithin thirty days
break up every blind tiger on his
beat or be discharged. AS we have
seen no accounts of policemen being
discharged it may be inferred that
all the blind tigers of the capital city
have been broken up.

The merger case of the Mobile and

the Southern was glad that it had
the opportunity of taking advantage
of it.

The Pennington Route.

As was stated in the Gazette months
ago the steamboat line between Aiexan-
dria and Pennington, Md, has been
discontinued and the Harry Lodor, the
last boat to run on the line, now lies
sunk in King street dock preparatory to
being broken up by J. Dreifus & Co.
The route was begun by the Gypsy and
continued by the Fairy and later by the
Harry Lodor. Communication with
Pennington is now made by the sloop
Daisy, Captain George Coombs. Ne
gotiations for the purchase Of another
small steamer for the line have been
going on for some time. 1t is said there
is plenty of business between this city
and Pennington to justify the running
of boat. The GYPSY, the first steamer
put on the route, was brought here in
1860. The late James Warpin was the
engineer. At the beginning of the civil
war she broke away from her wharf one
night during a fierce storm and was
blown ashore on this side of the river
nearly opposite the present shlpyard.
She was raised later, anchored in the
Ever and used as guard boat by the
federal authorities.

The Closing of Summer.

The summer of 1902 will soon be
among the things of the past. Already
the nights have become cool AS has also
the early morning temperature. The
sun in the daytime, however, still makes
himself felt, and yesterday at times was
oppressive. Toward evening clouds
gathered and distant thunder and light
ming made it probable that storm would
soon break over the city, but the clouds
passed to the north of Alexandria and
there was but bare suspicion OF RAIN
here. In Baltimore and other points
northeast of this city there were hail,
rain and considerable thunder and
lightning. The electrical display in
Baltimore was almost incessant and at
times terrifying. A barn near Jockeys
Vile. Md, was destroyed together with
a granary. Two men near Cockeysville
were stunned. One woman was struck
bv lightning in south Baltimore, a house
damaged. Il COW and calf were killed,
and many minor shocks and other dam
age are reported. The lightning was
very vivid and could be seen in this
city. A cloud passed over this city
this afternoon and there was sprink-
ling of rain with considerable thunder
and lightning south of Hunting creek
where the rain seemed to be heavy.

The Trial of John G. Nelson.

As stated in the Gazette the County
Court adjourned yesterday evening dur
ing the trial of John G. Nelson for arson
by reason of the illness OF the a,cu ed.
A sister came in court yesterday with
his wife and two nieces. When the
frst-named approached and kissed him
it was noticed that lis emotions were be-
ing wrought upon, and later Mr.. Moore,
Nelson's attorney, called attention to the
fact that he was indisposed, after which
Nelson arose and correlated the fact.
The prosecution offered no objection and
he was led from the court room. The
defence opened its case yesterday morn
ing, eleven witnesses being put on the
stand in behalf of the prisoner. The
main efforts of the defense were directed
toward establishing an abb. Several
witnesses were also introduced for the
purpose of impeaching the testimony of
several important witnesses OF the prose-
cution. Six swore that they had seen
Nelson in Alman's saloon, Fourteenth
and C Streets southwest Washington,
about 1890 O'Clock the night of the fire.
Three Others testified that he passed them
a few minuets later going south on the
Long Bridge toward Jackson City and
that the fire was then burning. These
three witnesses said that the accused was
in carriage with another man, and two
of them testified that he wore white
hat. The fire is supposed to have broken
out about 1925 Monday night, and one
of the witnesses for the prosecution gave
the time 1923 o'clock as the period
when he had first seen the blaze in the
policy shop. Five or six more witnesses
will be called by the defense.
Court met shortly after 9 o'clock this
morning when the taking of evidence
for the defence was resumed and COM
pleted before the Adjournment. The te, =
timony was favorable to Nelson. Court
adjourned early this evening till tomQr-
row when the prosecution will examine
witnesses in rebuttal. This, it is said,
will not take more than an hour or two
and then arguments will be heard and 1t
is expected that the case will be given TO
the jury before the adjournment OF court
for the day
The impression about the courthouse
is that there will be hung jury.
