THE DELTA FOR VARDAMAN.

Hon. Leroy W. Percy, of Washing
ton county, one Of the leading and
most influential men Of the Delta, has
come out for Major Vardamau. In
spec king of the candidacy Of the dis
tinguished son Of Lefore, a few days
ago, Mr.. Percy said:
II feel, if elected, that Major Var
daman will give us a clean and fearless
Observation-Disclosures governed by pa
triotic impulses and high ideals; and
in his appointments he will be infiu.
enced by the good Of the state alone,
seeking men best qualified to serve,
not designing to create henchmen to
forward his own political fortunes. He
will give US an administration ur.
smirched by scandal and unstained by
political jobbery."
Mr.. Percy's expressions in this mat
ter is but a reflex Of that Of the people
of the delta. The people of that SEC
ton of the state are going to give Var
daman a big majority over the other
two candidates, who are hardly known
in the race.

IS THE WHILE7

The Springfield Massachusetts, mill
lionaire, who is working as 8 laborer,
is doing 1t in order to make some
thing to live on, so that some n else
can enjoy his millions after he is
dead. There are many people in the
world with plenty Of money, who
work and starve, and stint themselves
so that others may have q good time
blowing in their wealth after they are
gone. We knew an old bachelor once,
very wealthy, who spent 3 life OF hard
work and self denial, saving all the
money be could make, except barely
enough to exist on. He denied him
self of all that makes life worth hv-
ing, and when he lay IN bis death
bed, amid the squalor of his cherries
surroundings, and some kind neigh
bors visited him, they advised him to
have q physician called, and send for
some other things, Of which he was
sorely in need, but he refused-as It
would cost something. He left q viii

WHERE the R IS OVER.

The New York Sun, Of recent date,
has an able aud timely article on,
"Where the War is Over" from which
we make the following extract:
A union veteran pleaded guilty in an
Augusta court the other day TO break
ing into q store. He was old and in
want, and said that dire necessity had
driven him to the act. The jury, com
posed Of Confederate veterans, asked
the presiding judge to deal leniently
with him. His honor, m ex-Confed-
crate major, fined the prisoner one dol
lar, and the sheriff, an ex-C Confederate
captain, paid tue fine. Before the I'M
ion soldier left the court room the dol
lar was IN his pocket. The spectators
rose and remained standing In sympa-
thetic silence until he passed out. Lat
er IN ths day a purse was made up Dy

soldier was sent to his home In Ken
