The Greenwood Enterprise Of this
week says:
"The boil worm is playing havoc with
the cotton crop in a good many places
in Lefore county, and during the past
two or three weeks cotton has been
throwing off, or shedding, considerably
Prominent planters have informed The
Enterprise this week that the crop il
fully one-third short of the estimate oi
three weeks ago. We trust the damage
is rot so great as some seem to think
but there is no questioning the fact that
the crop is already short OF the expecta-
tions of many people"
The same condition prevails iii sections
of Washington county that IL reported
above. If the deterioration in the crop
so manifest in this section during the
past ten days prevails throughout the
South the Government bureau estimate
of conditions reported September l, will
be lowered when the October report is
made. de.-Greenyille Democrat.

A Card.

1t is impossible for me to see all the
voters and gentlemen of the county who
gave ME their support during the recent
primary campaign in my race for sheriff
of Bolivar county. I therefore take this
opportunity of extending to each and
all the gentlemen who 90 kindly gave
me their support my sincere thanks and
assure them that l will always appre.
ciate what they have done for me.
l shall try by steady adherence to
my duty, and by doing all in my power
to perform the functions of my office
with absolute fairness to thus prove my
gratitude. III can give to the people OF
Bolivar county a fair administration,
and by that means increase the feeling
of confidence in the public mind, shall
know that have given very substan-
tial evidence of my gratitude and in that
way shall prove to my friends that l
have been worthy of all their confidence
and trust.
ITO those gentlemen who voted against
me Iwish to say that l harbor no i'll will
whatever; Irccognize their right to vote
for the man of their choice, and / have
the same high regard for them today
that / have for the other men who have
openly and candidly exercised their con-
stitutionel privileges.
Il retain only the best feeling for all
and ask both my supporters and oppo-
nents to lend ME their best efforts IN
maintaining and enforcing the law.
Again expressing my sincere thanks
am,
Respectfully Yours,
CLAnn SRAIs.

this afternoon:
ITO the White Democrats OF Miusis-
sippi: In
"While the result Of the primary Of the
27th inst, has not been announced, it is
apparent from the retnrns that I have
been nominated by majority of not less
than Z 1000 votes. take this method of
expressing my gratitude to the friends
who, like the Old Guard, have stood
Loyalty by me in the very vortex OF cal
umny, vituperation and misrepresenta-
ton which has characterized the cam
paign just closed. 1t has been hard
fought battle. Every inch Of ground
has been stubbornly contested, but my
friends have won great victory. To
them all the credit is due. II shall be
able to prove myself worthy Of their es-
TEEN and confidence / shall be satisfied.
God bless them.

Whether Critz OF Vardaman atteins
suzerainty to day the negroes of Missis-
sippi are perfectly safe and assured of
good government and protection. The
person who endeavors to infame their
fears, or ALLEVIATE their confidence in the
white people of this state, 10 a pernicious
traitor to the welfare of both races. The
best friend of the negro is right here, he
can lay his hand on him right now.
When he is hungry or sick he don't have
to 60 far to find him. 1t is only the i'd
lers, the loafers, and a few political mall
contents, who think they know how to
run this government, who are trying to
stir up discomfort and distrust. The law
abiding colored farmer, the most power
full and essential feature of the race here,
is prosperous, is satisfied, is pursuing
the even tenor Of his way to feed and
clothe the nation, undisturbed by the
the clamor of politics, of excitement that
will subside az soon az the officers are
elected and commence to draw their sal

WILL HOLD JET.
Not Considered Advisable to Return
Him to jackson.

Lexington, KY, May 19.-Curtis Jett
charged with the murder of J. B. Marcum
was brought into circuit court today at
Winchester on motion of dismiss the ha-
beas corpus proceedings The county attor-
ney was not present. but Jailer Boone
against whom the relief measure was di-
rected, conducted his own case. The court
decided to hold Jet and made a statement
that to return him to jackson. KY. would
be instantly to turn him loose. He will
await the action of the Breathitt grand
jury. It was said there was some trick in
today's proceedings in the Jet case which
Judge Benton turned down. The habeas
corpus motion had been overruled and the
case set for hearing June 4 to ascertain
the facts as to the killing and satisfy the
court whether he should hold Jet at all.
Jettfs attorney came into court and made a
motion to dismiss his own motion. Judge
Benton believed this a preparatory step
to damage an examining trial as the law
provides In this case he could not get
the Breathitt witnesses and Jet could ask
for dismissal in their absence
