nor is asked by them to at least
veto the emergency clause, SO
that the law cannot be applied
to the coming city primaries in
Omaha. The feature they OBJ
ject to in the bill is that which
requies the voter, when challeng-
ed, to swear that he has "gener-
ally" voted for the party which
is holding the primaries. Re-
publicans who support their
party ticket fail to see where
such a requirement in the law
would injury anyone except poll
teal shysters.

The movement in the House
to Immediately take up and con-
slider the appropriation bills is
one of much Importance to the
state, as it insures careful con-
sideration of these measures be-
fore the rush of the closing days
comes. 1t is a new and much
needed change in methods in Ne
braska Legislative practice, and
will be watched with much in
terest. Heretofore the practice
has been to take up private bills,
and ''logrolling" schemes first,
showing off the appropriation
bills until the last, to the utter
decentralization Of business during
the last few days. The old plan
was one much taken advantage
Of by those who had doubtful
claims further, or who were look
ing for large grabs from the
treasury for favored localities.
This year with the appropriation
bills ont OF the way in good time
the opportunities for "grabbing"
will be limited.

PRESS COMMENT.

Major Vardaman for governor and
Money for the Senate is what major
ity Of Mississippians are saying.-New-
ton Times.
The Anti-Vardanlan hot-air bellows
will be the fattest thing in the State
when it gets all the wind knocked out of
it in August.-Okolona Messenger.
While the Anti-Vardaman men are still
whistling to keep up their courage they
have lost heart and are prepared for the
terrible blow that is going to engnlf
them.-Okolona Messenger.
The Critz crowd are claiming the
earth, an infallibe sign that their hopes
have flown. That old claim bluff has
moss on it foot long. Vardaman will
be the next governor of Mississippi
Waynesboro Beacon.
Major Vardaman, one of the foremost
leaders against the ring rule in the DEM
ocratic party, made telling speech at
Jackson recently. Jackson and Kinds
county are sure to go for Vardaman in
August.-Pascagoula Democrat-Star.
The continued cry of the Vardaman
opposition that he is losing ground
every day." started about month ago,
and the string of journals against the
next governor keep up the cry, while
Vardaman continues to get new follow
ing every day.-Coahonian.
+ The Jackson correspondent Of the
Memphis Scimitar doubtless docs not
belong to the syndicate, or if he does,
will now very promptly be expelled, for
he actually gave Major Vardaman
nice notice when he spoke in that city a
few nights ago. 1t says that more people
turned ont to hear the brilliant Delta
orator than has been out to hear all the
other candidates all put together, and
that he was literally applauded The
speaking took place in the opera house
and he had fifteen hundred hearers. We
suppose that the Jackson ring heard his
voice, believed and trembled.

The Bolivar County Democrat. (Rosedale, Miss.) 1887-1969, 1903-06-20

all wish to have this master hand at the
helm to assist in steering our ship oi
state to grander and better and nobler
things.
Do we not see grand mercantile COM
paIlies, many banks with imposing cap
ital, large oil Mills congresses, factories,
and many other enterprises springing up
all over our county? Will not these
largely increasing affairs in our county
call for most energetic and intelligent
men to administer the county's business
affairs i'll way that will not interfere
with nor hamper their growth ? Do we
not need that integrity ofpurposs and
intelligent direction that will give to
these enterprises that con6dcnce and
guaranty of protection that will cause
them to grow in power and influence to
such an extent as our resources demand?
The confidence heretofore rcpossd in MIR.
OVERLY is sufficient guarantee that his
efforts in the future will be satisfactory
to all business men and rebound to the
credit OF the county and add new lustre
to his own name as we'll as to reflect
honor OH all our people
Mr.. OVERLY is safe and sound bust
ness man, thoroughly competent to cope
with the affairs of the county in an i'll
telligent and useful manner. Those are
the qualities we need, and those are the
qualities me must have. We want no
no noneatities. The time is past for
passivencss. We want men Of action;
men who will stand up for our rights
and see that we get them. Mr.. OVERLY
is broad and liberal in his views, and if
elected we can be assured that our inter
ests will never suffer, and that there will
be no relaxation i'll our county's onward
and upward progress.
Let the citizens of the second district
see thai Mr.. OVERLY is elected.
OLD CITIZEN.
The Bolivar County Democrat. (Rosedale, Miss.) 1887-1969, 1903-06-20
Hon. T. R. OVERLY.
Shelby, Miss.


The Democrat:
As the time for the Democratic primary
is rapidly approaching, in our opinion it
behooves our people to bestir themselves
to see that competent, worthy aud eff
cient men are selected to represent them
on the board of supervisors for the next
four years. We all know that this is one
of the most important positions in the
whole county, and also that there are no
emoluments attached to the office-hence
the difficulty of securing good men to
accept the position.
Now then, our friend. Hon. II. K.
OVERLY has agreed to serve the people as
member of the board, if elected. Our
people should avail themselves OF this
opportunity to secure the right man and
place him i'll the right place. Mr. OVERLY
is well known throughout the county,
having lived here for the past thirty-odd
years, and has always used his means,
his energy and his skill to push forward
the resources of the county and to ad
vance the prosperity of our people. He
has ever been active in religious work,
liberal in educational advancement has
fought tor a clear, honest aud pure
political administration of the county's
affairs. He has done as much, or more,
towards advancing Our county to the
foremost rank of any county in the state
insofar rs financial standing, social in
fuence, political power and Importance.
educational advantages, mercantile
power and agricultural Importance, as
any man in the county. Having been
activein bringing about this happy state
of affairs, it seems TO rs that we should
