Times Dispatch, Richmond, Va.
The wedding celebration of

daughter Of Mr.. J. w. Fergus
son, and Mr.. Louis Leo Judice,
of Louisiana, took place in Tri-
nifty M. E. church yesterday at
6:15 p. m, the pastor, the Rev.
George H. Spooner, being the
celebrant
White tapers in silver and
crystal candelabra, -palms and
ferns, made elaborate church
and altar decorations. The bride
was attended by her maid of
honor. Miss Phyllis Bachelor,
and her bridesmaids, Miss
Blanche Mastin, Miss Annie
Lear, Miss Lucy Minson and
Mrs. Jessie Bailey Brown, of
Pittsburg, Pa. They all wore
white chiffon frocks and had
bouquets of maidenhair fern,
tied with green.
The brides gown was of beau

shower of lilies of the valley.

MAJ. oARp.

To the White Democrats of Mississippi
While the results of the primary cleo
tion have not been officially announced,
it appears from the face of the returns
that l am short from two to four cleo
toral votes Of the nomination. A very
narrow margin, indeed. I have fought
the field, the tntrenchei horde Of Fed
eral office holders, aided by others in
authority in the State. An unlimited
supply of money used to substitute the
press and debauch the voters has been
employed to compass my defeat. Vitu-
peration, SANDER and malignant misrep.
resentation have characterized the fight
against me. But such agencies and
such methods-thank God !-h a Y e
proved of no avail, and will not with
patriotic Mississippians. 1 have made
no deals, entered into no combinations,
made no promises Of official favOrs to
secure votes: and I shall not, let the is
sue be what it may.
Ny campaign from the beginning has
been made upon the high plane Of de-
cent politics, advocating only such
measures as in my judgment we're for
the good Of my beloved State. 1 have
discussed the race question because I
regard it as the paramount problem of
the century. 1t is the one over shad-
owing question, the right settlement of
which involves so much for Mississippi.
1t viii be the paramount issue in the
next national campaign, and I predict
that the Democracy will win enough
votes from the North on it to carry the
election. The thoughtful men of the
nation agree with my judgment of this
matter.
The people of Mississippi are much
more interested in this question than
they are in the political fortune of any
individual, The measure oVershadows
the man. My election will mean and

fuence upon them. My defeat will,
on the other hand, encourage these
same negroes to aspire to the .unattain-
able, and trouble, discord and democrat
izat1on will follow. That is the real
issue.

you be governed. 1t isyour country, and

N4S CO: seS charge, ~s; on s s''
ruptiOn are published against pro
minent men, they readily hnC
redress in the courts. II a news
paper publishes a libel there is ne
question of the efficiency Of the
laws to punish its publisher.
One Of two things is true
Either Judge Critz is in every way
unfit to be recognized by the hon
est people of Mississippi as an
aspirant for Governor, or the pub
fishers of this paper shOnld now be
behind the bars awaiting trial tor
criminal libel. We charge him
with being a boOdler, plain and
simple, one of the most hidious
crimes a man can commit, and yet
we enjoy our freedom. Not even
q bluff is made to counterfeit the
charge. Nor is a criminal prose-
cution the only punishment that
can be melted out to one who NAL
iciously assails the character of a
citizen ~uniustly. The courts Of
Justice also furnish redress.
The publishers of The OKoLoNA
MESSENGER and THE OKoLoNA
SUN have over IS, 900 invested in
in their business, and are therefore
financially as we'll as personally
responsible.
Nc man other than the editors
Of these papers r responsible for,
or knowing to any editorial pub
lished until after the paper is out.
Now listen: We charge that the
campaign waged by the proiessed
Christian gentleman, Judge F. A.
Critz, of West Point, Mississippi,
under the knowledge, consent aud
direction OF Judge Critz, by his
political manager, Col. Levy, is
the most unblushing Doodle cam
paign ever waged within the cor
pOrate limits Of this state. 1t is
equal in atrociOus and malignant
debauchery to any ever waged by
Mark Hanna in Ohio, by VIM.
Tweed, in his day in New York
City, or by the men who have
been sent to the p~enitentiary from
st. Louis within the last year.
And we declare, fully aware of the
consequences, if we are commit
ting libel, that this attempt TO buy
the GOvernOrship, is an insult to
every honest man in the state, a
disgrace to the city in which the
bOOdler lives and maintains his
headquarters, an outrage upon the
good name of Mississippi.
We honestly believe this man
Critz should be repulsed by the
people of the state, as they would
Tepulse or condemn the most pOis-
OnOus reptile.
Because this man has the money,
or can get it, be assumes that the
voters Of the state are for sale,
and proceeds in the most cold
blOOded manner to stihe their
honest convictions and to ride
over their earnest desires to con-
duct an honest election.
For the fuTtheranCe of this pur-
pose Judge Critz brings to his aid
and places in charge of his man
agement a man whose very nature
blinds him with the belief that
money is the only thing on earth
Of value; that for a price anything
human or divine may be purchas-
ed. This man Levy, sehOOled in
the deepest dyed corruption
known to New York City, assumes
to place a price on the yOemanry
Of Mississippi, and demand the
election of his man Critz as Govern
OF because he has the price to pay
for it. This is Levy's idea Of
qualifcation-the price.
And yet the people find it 3
difficult issuetO confront, for there

The Bell Telephone company should
put in an exchange between Parker, Rex
burg and Idaho Falls. AS it is now the
company is losing money and the busi-
nessmen of this place are being discom-
moded and business is being retarded.
The Star route free delsvery service is
not satisfactory to the patrons along the
route between Parker and Plano because
the carrier refuses to receive the empty
sacks or sachels from the postmaster
and take them as the law requires. The
patrons are going to make complaint to
the department and if the carrier is
right, this service is but very little good
to the patrons.
There seems to be lack Of confidence
with some people in the Sugar Beet COM
pany because verything has not turned
out as well as they expected and they
are becoming very technical. This is
all very wrong, farmers, this is an
experimental year for the company and
the farmers, and if the farmers refuse
to contract for the beets we will not get
the railroad and it will be loss of
thousands of dollars year to us.

develop the resources of the country
and build it up.

the Teton Telephone company was the
complaining witness. Thos. r. Hamer
and James H. Hawley We're the attor
neys in the case for the defendants and
County Attorney Soule conducted the
prosecution. The evidence was of such
character that the discharge of Mr.. Lewis
was ordered by the Judge
Geo. L. Young's case came mp the
same day upon a separate complaint
and was also discharged, After these
cases had been disposed of a new com
plant was filed against both parties
charging them with grand larceny
The hear ng was had at once and Mr..
Lewis was discharged Geo. L. Young
was bound over to the district court
and held un der $500 bond which was
furnished.
Mr.. Hawley appeared in behalf of the
defendant, asked that the third charge
of grand larceny against Walt Lewis be
dismissed for the reason that the COM
planning witness Joseph Howard and
other witnesses for the state had failed
to appear. Judge Donaldson granted the
request of Mr.. Hawley and the defen-
dant was discharged from the third com

present and there is not likely to be any
