The NavisabiIity Of. Bogue
Phalia Should be Preserved.

The Democrat is pleased to observe
that the Board of Supervisors have at
last recognized the propriety OF giving
the Bogue people some facilities in the
way of bridges. They will prove val
uable factor in the development of that
part of the county. 1t is, however, very
important to preserve unimpaired the
navigability of the Bogue, and all bridges
there should be 30 constructed as to sue
cessfully guard this point of vital moment
to every one interested in that fertile
section, which is rapidly developing now
since the completion of the railroad from
Rosedale to the Sunfowcr river. We
are informed that the bridge built by the
board OH the lower Rogue is 4 clumsy
affair, with the draw 80 badly afid in
artistically constructed as to seriously
obstruct navigation. 1t is throwing
away money to build bridge of this
kind. and the error should not be re-
peated. Let the bridges be built by all
means, for the good of the county de-
mands it, but let them be built of the
proper kind, and in the proper way,

A Levee Convention in Order.

1t is desired to strengthen the demand
OF the Mississippi river commission (for
more money for levees) by expressions Of
opinion from the representative men oi
the country, and conventions suggest
cd for that purpose. MIR. Charles Scott.
president of the Mississippi River Inn
provenent and Lcvee Association, has,
it is announced, the calling OF such a con-
vention i'll view, the only questions about
it unsettled being, as to the time and
place Of meeting. III this connection we
would suggest that early in October
would be the best date, just before the
meeting of congress, so that the resolu-
tions adopted will have some influence
on congress and can be laid before that
body by committee to be appointed
for that purpose.
As for the place of meeting, it ought
naturally to be in the aIluvial district.
and any Of the cities Of that section
Memphis, Vicksburg, or New Orleans.
would be suitable. 1t is simply ques-
ton of which city will assure the largest
convention and the most satisfactory
results. New Orleans naturally sugeests
itself as city easily reached and most
intimately connected with the levee sys-
tenn of the lower Mississippi. A good
levee convention that would be truly
would greatly strengthen
the hands of the Mississippi river com
mission in its demands, and with the
strong assistance and encouragement
now certain from the north, would
assure our getting far more liberal ap-
preparation tor our levees than we have
yet received. - Times Democrat.

Vardaman Still Gaining
Ground.

Vardnman Club was organized il

Post, with signed membership of 20;
bona fide voters Of the city of Jackson
The lists were left open for signatures
and now contains the names of NOR,
than three hundred, though no canvas,
has been made for signatures. A tempo
rary organization was perfected with
| Mr.. R. V. Rachford as president and E
E. Frantz as secretary An executive
committee of fifteen prominent citizens
was selected and they will elect perma.
nent officers, when the club will get
down to business.
Hon. Leroy Percy, who was for Mr..
Fox, but since his withdrawal has not
expressed an opinion until now, said: :.
II hardly expect to be 80 ocircumstanced
an to be able to vote in the primary, and
Iconfess to having been much puzzled
over the gubernatorial situation. not
only do not endorse Vardaman's plan
for the separation of the school fund, but
regard it both as wrong in principle
and peculiarly inopportune in the time
fits adyocacy-wrong in principle be-
cause every man, white or black. should
have that degree Of education which will
enable him to know when All account is
presented to him whether it is correct or
not; this much our people should con-
cede to the negro race for its protection,
and this much they should insist upon
for the protection of the white race to
guard against the moral deterioration
inevitably resulting from dealing on
terms of business equality with trust
ing and ignorant people-distressingly
inopportune in the time of its advocacy
because, above sll things, the South de-
sires to be permitted to solve this ques-
ton free from outside interference, and
the decided drift of conservative Northern
sentiment is towards conccding this, but
the civilization of the age would never
permit this If the South should take the
position that the negro, in order to be rem
dered helpless, shall be kept in ignorance;
