A remarkable incident occurred
in New Orleans relative to three
brothers, two of whom belonged
to the 22nd Mississippi. Their
name is Underwood. One of
them was a lieutenant in Company
E, and was considered the best
skirmish fighter in our regiment,
and in obedience to his command
we have frequently sent leaden
bullets whizzing at the blue jack
cts. Soon after the war, those
three brothers separated, each
seeking his fortune in different
States. Two of them accident
ally met in New Orleans and fail
ing to recognize each other, the
following conversation ensued
''What command did you belong
to-" said one. "22nd Mississip.
pi," he replied. Yes" said
the other; What company?'
Company Z" he replied. "Well,
was in that company. What is
your name - Underwood. y
They looked into each others
faces for moment, when one.
with tears streaming from his
eyes, fell upon the neck of his
long-lost brother and exclaimed;
my God, John, is this you?':
The third brother was sought ou|
and found and there was great Joy
in the camp.

GOV. LONGING.

The Gulf Coast Progress, of
Bay st. Louis, one of the most
conservative newspapers in Mis-
sissippi, announced for. Longino
for United States Senator in its
last issue. 1t had a column edito-
rial on the subject, from which
we reproduce the following con-
corning Gov. Longino's career:
ut is said that Gov. Lon gino's
native county (Lawrence) never
had a more efficient chancery
clerk than he was, and it is GER
tain that the State never had a
safer legislator than he, and the
records of the senate will fully
attest this during his term Of ser
vice as State senator from that
county. AS United States district
attorney he reflected great credit
on the administration which APP
pointed him; and it was under his
wise, honest and intelligent admin
istration of that Office that the
great depredations on government
lands in this State we're stopped
and those who had become rich
by despoil1ng the public domain
we're forced to make PREPARATION
for the wrongs committed by
them. The reports of the su-
preme court will attest that the
State never had a more able, hon
est, or faithful chancellor than
he, when he served in that capac-
ity, and as Governor of this proud
commonwealth he has taken high
rank and today Mississippi's
chief executive is honored at home
and abroad. He has stood for an
honest, firm administration of
the law, and the glory and honor
of the State seems to have been
his chief concern. He has used
the appointive power as it should
be used, taking at all times the
honor and welfare of the State
first into consideration, and no ap-
pointment made by him has been
the result of political intrigue to
pay political debt.
This, in part, is the record
of the man who, without advan-
tages save those possessed by the
average young man, has fought
his way from the.ranks, step by
step, to the highest place within
the gift of the people. Gov. Lon
gino is yet a young man, in the
full possession of all his faculties,
with a long life before him, and
if be uses half the energy and
capacity in the Senate that he has
displayed in the various positions
filled by him, he will be able to
accomplish great things fol his
native State. Scranton Chronicle.

Gov. Longino made a good,
logical, practical and convincing
speech. He was greeted through
out by applause and approval. .
The above are the closing lines
of the report to the Picayune
sent from MendenhalI, county
seat of Simpson, Monday, where
the Governor spoke in the in
terest of his candidacy. This is
similar to many reports that come
from North Mississippi where
Senator Money is said to be
strongest, but it begins to look
like there were no real Money
strongholds,'' except in a few
isolated spots. There is no deny
ing the fact that the Governor has
the Senator 'a-going'' and be-
fore the election he will have
him clean gone. 2 Mark the

But this know, my all in ALL

Some day when fades the golden sun,
Beneath the roSy-tinted west,

A pointer to all good citizens OF
Lincoln county: If you want the
laws enorced and peace and pros
perity to prevail in this good

listen not to the wooings and the
Establishments of the candidate
who is popular with breakers
and would-be w-breakels; no
matter how clever he may be per-
sonally. The right kind of man,
with even a little horse sense,

The Clarion-Ledger says an i'm
preston is somewhat prevalent
that the appointment of Judge
Mayes by the Governor was mere
ly' to fill out the term of the late
Chancellor Conn, which would
not have expired until the 18th of
August, 1904. This is not fact.
By provision of the State consti-
tuition circuit judges and chancel-
lors are appointed for a full term
of. four years regardless of wheth-
er they succeed retiring officials
who have completed thei1 terms,
or are appointed to fill vacancies.
This provision of the organic law
is not generally known. 1t does
not apply to supreme judges,
however, who serve a nine year
term, one retiring each three
years, and when vacancies occur
the appointee serves only for the
unexpired period unless reap
pointed. Therefore, Judge Mayes
will have until 1907, or almost to
the close of the term of the next
Governor.
