your views on questions of national

sufficient answer to persons wishing to
know your views on the Philippine
question, in order to be consistent,
why don't you refer the people to the
platform to learn your views on other
subjects which you have been discuss

fact that the Philippine question is
one that you did not wish injected
into this canvass?
You .insinuate that am against
you because you did not appoint me

their success in applying for Office
that defeated aspirants are against
you and successful ones your ardent
supporters Will you kindly answer
yes or no, did not Judge j. Fl. Price
of the southern supreme court district
resign some time ago and have you
not appointed his successor? And if
so why have you not given out the
appointment Is it political asset
to keep other applicants in line?
Have or have not other lawyers in
this district been approached with
reference to succeeding to this soon to
be supposed vacancy? 1t is generally
claimed, whether true or not, l do
not know, that Roosevelt's appointees
are supporting yon in your present
canvass. Did or did not Roosevelt
offer you the refereeship for Missis-

That Hattiesburg has few more
progressive men than A. K. McInnis,
the prominent merchant on Main

terprise displayed by him in investing
largely in real estate and then pro-
ceeding to place houses upon it for
tenants. Over in the northern part
of the city, just beyond Yellow Pine
Park, he has under construction some
twenty buildings, several of them
already completed and occupied or

of his fellow travellers,
Speeding across Idaho, in the small

the brakeman below "Nampa" and
straightway fell asleep. Some time
afterwards he awoke and, looking out
of the window, saw tho lights of a
town.
"Where are we now," he queried.

All was silent for an instant, and
then falsetto masculine voice drawl-

"All of us" drily remarked the
first speaker, while many of the pas
sengers went into Mysteries, for the
tone and emphasis of the "me" were
all to the effect that the speaker was
the only person ON the train.
When the train passed the American
falls of Snake river, one of the men
on the train was immensely interested
