Sir:-As you are we'll aware I have
known you all your life, and I had
hoped that you had reformed, but
since you have rushed into print with
lot of stuff that has not even a
scintilla of truth in it, OH the state
ment of an ex-convict, who had just
finished term for horse stealing
and whose own father recently wrote
him that he could not return home
on account of his depraved character,
have lost all hope for you. 1t seems
you still hold to that element which
prowls like thief III the night,
seeing what meanness they can do,
like you did when you were cutting
peoples harness while they were in
the church worshipping their Goa,
that all men should reverence. You
know this is so, and [ will mention
D. B. Mckee, Of Jackson, and John
J. McGutfee, of Brandon, who are
among the victims Of your depravity,
and who know that what [ say about
you is so. He who wilfully ciroulates
a lie is as base as he who first origi-
mates it, and if you had wanted to do
the fair thing you would have tele-
phoned over to the penitentiary Office
and made some inquiries about the
matter before publishing such base
lie, but instead Of this you rush into
print lot of lies with no founda-
ton to base them on. think know
the reason for this. 1t was that
low down, dopraved spirit in you
which leads you to any length to
g1atify your malace and hatred to me
which has been in you many years.
You sir, have known me all your life
and you we'll know that have never
been guilty Of any such things as
you charge in your paper. You are
trying to damage my character in the

acter is something moressacred TO me

SENATOR MONEY.

United States Senator Money spoke
TO an audience of ladies and gentle
men at the academy last Thursday.
The senator spoke altogether on ma
tional questions and his address was
we'll received.
The few friends of Major VaIdaman
who were present were very much dis
appointed at the senator discussion OF
the race qustion which was very far
from sustaining the claim that Money
and yardaman entertained similar
views on that question.
The Senator discussed the race ques-
ton purely as National question
and believes there should be no social
or political partnership between the
races, but that the whites should have
exclusive political control, and should
treat the negro kindly and fairly.

Fellow Citizens of Holmes county:
As You know that I am candidate
for the position of Railroad Commits
sioner of the first district Of your
state, and that it has been impossible
for me to SEQ you all, | adopt this
method to reach you.
The office which seek Iis an i'm
portant one, and strictly business
one and it demands that business
man, one with experience, and ono
who is qualified should be elected to
ill it.
Now in asking you for your sup
port, offer for your careful consider
alton, and comparison as to my oppo-
Hents, tie following:
First, that there is not single
! failure as to business matter charge
able to my account.
Second, | have been employedtwenty
consecutive years by one firm as a
travelling salesman on the railroad
aud in the interior, thus coming in
contact in business way with the
merchants and general public in town
and country, and had the opportunity
to observe the needs and wants of the
people and the State. I know what
is needed in better passenger and
freight accommodations and State
affairs, and have practically demon
strated my business ability, fidelity
and responsibility.
Third, ] am strongly endorsed by
the business league of my home town
as one who is fully capable in veery
way to fill such an office.
None of my competitors offer either of
the above to you. My first vote was
casts with the red shirt on, as Dem
ocrat, and have voted at every cleo
ton since. taking an active part in
| politics for my party and friends, but
| have never asked for an office, or held
one-unlike most of my worthy ON
come old and hardened sinners in this
respect. Should I be elected to serve
you, [ shall Try to make my official
record like my private record, and so
far as III my power as member of
the board of control of your State
farm and State matters, an accurate
and just account shall be kept, and it
will be so plain any ordinary business
man can at glance understand it. /
shall be conservative. Remember
that the prosperity of our country is
largely interviewer with the develop
ments fostered by RAILROAD companies,
and both are entitled to fair treat
ment, but wise supervision should
adjust the tritie for transportation to
the needs and conditions of the peolpe
so as to neither to cripple the railroad
companies nor impoyreish the pro-
Queer of the staple products Of our
soil. Remember that Fiddler is a
