DEATH OF CAPT. c. C. FERRILL.
News reaches this office of the death
of Capt. G. C. Ferrill Of Quitman.
Clarke county, in thi; state.
Perhaps There is no man in the
state who knew Capt. Ferrill more in
timately than the editor of The Daily
Progress, his acquaintance with him
dating back to 1868, when Captain
Ferrill was member of Shubuta's,
then the greatest and strongest firm,
Hayes & Ferrill, who will be remem-
bered by old settlers all over this Sec
tion of Mississippi, as that place, then,
was their trading point.
Later, in 1876, we believe. Captain
Ferrill, was elected sheriff of Clarke
county in which position he served
two years and in the election follow
ing, which was in 1878, entered the
race for chancery clerk. which office
he held, no opponent ever being abb
to defeat him, up to the time of his
death.
But it is of Captain FerrilPs ex-
emplarv private life and charitable
disposition that we wish moe eSpe-
cially to speak.
There is one instance which we viii

SENSIBLE NEGRO EDITOR.

a negro editor in one of the Texas

Of wholesome advice TO his race
through a recent issue of his paper,
and it should be read and profited by,
by the negroes of Mississippi a. we'll

''The stopping of the negro excur-
sion that had been arranged for today
TO Ell Paso, because of the protest OF
the municipal authorities OF that city,
is significant. For years | have tried
to discourage these negro excursions.
The truth is, the negro excursion is
nuisance and should be abated. What
the negro needs is six days work a
week and in fifty-two weeks every
wear. and to stick to it, Fiddling
and drinking and riding are not
! things to make great people. Let
the negro excursion come to stand
still. If this is done there will be
less of the hip-pocket industry ant
fewer razor plays. The Ell Paso city
authorities are right in discouragin9
the train riding idlers. Other cities
should do the same thing. In dis

THE GOVERNORSHIP.

The election is now over, the sus-
pense is ended. the returns ali III, and
Mai. James K. Vardaman is governor
elect of the commonwealth Of Missis-
sippi. being victorious over his OPP
ponent by a majority of about ten
thousand votes.
Almost without a parallel in the
history of this state stands the tight

xaged for the past six months, and
nerhaps without a precedent in the
era of the present generation Is the
int re It and partisanship that has
been displayed by almost every indl-

women and children, suffragist, non
suffragist and alien, and all fighting
as though for the govaruoIshlp lndl-
