viii Not Repudiate Them.
Special to the Daily Progress.

Jackson, Feb. Although the
campaign is now on in the early
statgc Of its development, it is gen
orally believed that Bishop Gallo
ways strong declaration in opposi-
tion to the statutory prohibition
movement in Mississippi seems the
death knell of the issue, and in many
quarters it is taken as assurance that
the effort to make all candidates for
Office, and particularly the aspirants
for seats in the legislature, to declare
themselves on the question will fall
fiat
Bishop Galloway has always been
recognized as Mississippi leading in
huence, and since the early SOS he
has been potential factor in the
anti saloon crusade in the state, being
the leader in every local option fight,
and it is stated that many Of the dram
shops laws now on the statute books
were drafted with his pen before
being introduced. His opposition,
therefore, in the present campaign
will have q telling effect, particularly
among members Of the Methodist
church, who are even now greatly
divided on the subject, as was shown
by the close vote by which the statu-
tory prohibition movement was
adopted at the Natchez conference
session The most influential mem
bers of the Methodist clergy hold
views coinciding with Bishop Gallo
way on the subject, and the prohibi
tion cause will gain but little support
from this source.
AT present the fight is headed large
ly by the Baptist, bat the other
church denominations are not taking
all active hand III the campaign, be-
Heving with Bishop Galloway that it
will have tendency to bring prohi-
bition into politics, and cause I'M
desirable friction and pickering
throughout the summer.
The opponents OF statutory prohl-
hition counted strong on a declara-
tion from Bishop Galloway, and they
have not been disappointed, for his
utterance is straightforward, and |
already its widespread effect is so ap
parent that the indications for large |
attednance in the mass convention at |
Jackson on the 18th are not SO rosy as
they have been in the past.
About twenty counties have thus
far selected delegates to the jackson
convention, and quite a number have |
postponed action for several days the |

THE HUMOROUS SIDE OF 1T.
Candidates Warned Not to Throw
Down Fences and Ride
Over Growing Crops.


| Special to the Daily Progress.
Jackson, Feb. S-A rather humor-
ous feature of the political campaign
comes from Yazoo county where the
warning has been sent out to candi-
dates for that Office that they must
not throw down fences and ride over
growing crops in their anxiety to
reach the voters and solicit their
support.
The warning has thus assumed only
the form of a gentle hint, but it may
become more strenuous later on in
the year, particularly when the crop
Of candidates becomes full-grown and
the campaign reaches the medium
Of its heat and spirit. Yazoo county
already has more than score of
aspirants for county offices III the
field, to say nothing Of the numerous
persons who want to be justices of
the peace or constables, and the
problem is really a serious one to the
farmers. 1t is related that during
the last camapign one candidate in
that county actually tore down a ten
rail fence and drove buggy over a
field of young corn, completely de-
stroying no less than half an acre of
the crop, and all III order TO reach the
ear of voter before his rival, who
was working the same neighborhoOd.
The thought is suggested that the
man who has no more sense than to
ride over a growing crop does not
possess sense enough to hold Office.
