MARIANA. ARK, April 7, 1903.
Sheriff j. G. Crosby. Aberdeen:
lam trying to locate the heirs of
a white man named Tandy Erwin
or Irwin, who died in this county
in 1888. He was about % years
old, and / think was single. My
information is that he was from
your vicinity. He had been in
this State three or four years be-
fore he died. If / could locate his
heirs | think | could bring about
some financial benefit to them.
You will kindly make inquiries of
some of the older residents of your
county, and ascertain if possible.
if his heirs can be located.
Very truly yours,

To Be Considered.

In a good many of the counties
of the State the candidates, in con-
sideration of the conditions exist
ing among the farmers, have
agreed among themselves that
they will make no regular canvass.
but will forego the hunt for the
voters and take their several
chances WITHOUT the customary
electioneering. Here in Leake
some such action should be taken
among the candidates. For three
successive years the crops have
been short. and the corn crops in
many portions of the county have
been almost total failures. Nearly
every farmer in Leake is buying
corn. and the caravan of candi-
dates and their horses must bring
more or less hardship to each
community wherein they make u
raid. The hospitality of our citi-
zens is we'll known, and while we
think it would show no diminution
even under the present disadvan-
tageous circumstances, yet the fact
remains that the visits of the num-
erous candidates would be more or
less an imposition and hardship,
and some means should be agreed
upon whereby the hospitality and
good nature of our people may be
mitigated, if it cannot be wholly
averted. -Carthaginian.

Double Primary Probable.

Jackson, Miss, April Ii. =
Especial to Memphis Commercial
Appeal. I'm the case of State
Offices the law provides that if a
candidate who gets the plurality of
the popular vote also receives a
majority of the electoral vote he
shall then be declared the nominee
of the party.
The electoral vote of a county is
double its number of representa-
tives in the lower house of the leg
islature, and this electoral vote is
given to the candidate who shall
receive the highest popular vote in
the county. For example, in the
primary election next August each
candidate will be credited with the
entire electoral vote of every coun-
ty in which he secures = plurality
of the popular vote, and should he
receive a majority of the entire
electoral vote of the State in this
way and then have plurality of
entire popular vote he is the nomi-
nee.
1t will, therefore, be seen that it
is possible for q candidate to be
nominated, although he should re-
ceive very small plurality of tn.
entire popular vote. and it is also
very possible for one candidate to
have the plurality of the popular
vote while another candidate gets
a majority of the electoral vote.

The people of Mississippi are
taking no interest in the issues
that have been jumped up in the
present State campaign. The State
is in . most prosperous condition
and all classes of citizens are salts
fed and pursuing the even tenor
of their way without conflict or
interference. The agricultural,
industrial, educational, social and
political interests of the common
wealth are in q healthier condition
than ever before, and the future
holds out an suspicious prospect
for increased prosperity. Blessed
with these conditions the people
are Indifferent to the howl for q
change of policy that is being
urged by few aspirants for office
and will vote for men who will con.
tinue the State government under
the wise constitution of 1880. This
intention is evident from the atti.
tude of the numerous candidates
for the Legislature who are paying
no attention to the questions thai
are being discussed by the candi-
dates for Governor. but are freely
expressing themselves on matters
of local concern.

A portrait of Judge Francis NJ.
Rogers was received today at the
department of archives and history
for hanging in the new capitol, the
Gift of Mrs. India Rogers Sykes,
of Aberdeen. Judge Rogers was
a prominent lawyer and jurist in
Aberdeen. Miss. He was circuit
Judge in the 4Os and was elected
in 1915 as a whig in district that
WAS largely democratic. and was
the whig candidate against John
j. McRae. The canvass which they
made has become historic. During
the first year Of the war he raised
and equipped company of troops
for the Confederate army. He was
killed at Fort Donelson.
General Reuben Davis. in his
"RecollectiOns Of Mississippi"
writing of Judge Rogers says, Il
can paint no picture which can do
him Justice. He was a large heart
ed fellow, and | loved him more
like brother than a friend. The
world has been poorer, to me. since
a northern bullet cut the outward
link which bound that genial spirit
to his friends here below.-Jack-
son Clarion Ledger.

The utterances of Grover Cleve-
land on the negro problem, at a
meeting held in the interest of the
Tuskegee industrial institute in
New York recently, are statesman
like and disclose a thorough CON-
prehension of the attitude of the
white people of the South towards
the negro. Mr.. Cleveland believes
that the solution of the question
lies in industrial education and
that the negro is dependent upon
himself and the responsible white
people of the South for whatever
of progress and development he
may be capable. He expressed
faith in the honor and sincerity of
the Southern people in their rela-
tions with the negro for his we'll
being and improvement, and adj
vised that the subject be left TO
Dixie for solution.

In his speech at Columbus last
week Governor Longino said that
Congress ought to pass bill pro-
viding for the improvement of the
Tombigbee river" aud declared
that ''if the river were in the north
instead of the south, it would be-
made navigable all the year round"
The Tombigbee was once on the
list for annual appropriations for
it's improvement as far up the
stream as Fulton in Itawamb a
county, and was worked by gov
eminent engineer and crew Of la
borers, cleaning out snags and 9th
erwise improving the channel, but
the railroads managed to exert
their influence in Congress, the
Tombigbee at this end of the line
was dropped from the list, and now
it is the most difficult thing in the
world to have it reinstated. In adj
vocating this improvement the
Governor will strike responsive
echo among respectable contin-
gent, in the administration of his
new Office of candidate.
