Council Meeting.

The City Council met last night
to consider two important mat
tiers, the sidewalk matter and to
receive bids for the installation
of an electric light system at the
water works.
The Council had the contract
with Kelley & Pope for the con-
struction of the cement walks in
this city prepared and expected
to sign the same and had MesSrs.
Kelly and Pope before them for
that purpose.
The Council will also install an
incandescent electric light plant
at the water works and several
bids were received last night for
the work. The electric light bill
at the plant is a heavy one and as
the city already has the power
there a small plant will be es-
tablished which will save the city
quite a sum each month.

viii Go Alone.

A great deal Of interest IS being
taken in the proposition which
has come up in Washington coun-
BY through the candidates by
which they propose to settle their
claims in a special primary cleo
ton to be held in July. Accord
ing to the agreement of the can
didates the executive com mittee
of the county is asked to order a
special primary for July "A, at
which all the candidates for
county offices will run and the
successful ones are then to be
placed upon the ticket in the reg
ular August primary in order to
make the nominations legal.
There are two features con-
nected with this proposition that
make it of great interest. The
chief of these is the fact that it
will nullify the primary election
law if the committee should agree
to order the special election.
Another and very interesting
feature is the fact that it will
eliminate entirely the county
fights from the State campaign
and thereby prevent any posi-
BILE trading in the State primary.
Under the primary law all the
the candidates, state and county,
are to be voted in August and
majority primaries are provided
for except where the candidates
for county offices agree specially
to a plurality nomination. There
has been some criticism of the
Washington county plan, but as
all of the candidates have agreed
to the proposition it is strictly a
family matter aud the executive
com mittee will doubtless let them
have their way. If any one OF
the candidates should object tC
the plan he could insist on the
regular primary la wv Jackson

Death of Capt. Thomas Franks.

Many friends throughout this
section learned with infinite sor-
row on Monday of the death of
Capt. Tom Franks at his home
in West Point the night before.
He had been in poor health for
long time and an attack of heart
disease terminated in sudden
death.
Capt. Franks was well known
to our people He was an officer
Of the Fifth Immunes modified
here. But it was not of this
command that he is best known.
1t was as mem Der of that i'm
mortal band which carried on the
struggle of the COnfederacy that
he made fame. For personal
bravery and intrepid daring
Capt Franks was one the most
fearless men who ever went on
any battle field and his name was
read out for deeds of beroism,
perhaps, more than any man i'll
the Southern army. Such a
record is d rich legacy to leave
his relatives and friends who
will always revere and honor his
memory.

General lake Sharp.

Judge L. NJ. Garrett, of the
Carthagenian, pays the following
beautiful tribute to Gen. Sharp
in a recent issue of his paper:
It is with no small degree Of
pleasure that we reprint in this
issue the card of our old Briga-
der General Jacob II. Sharp, of
Lowndes county. Army title is
more than apt to develop all the
pecuIarities Of man s charac-
ter, it's weakness and its follies
as we'll as it's better traits and
qualities; and having had the
honor Of serving the Confedera-
cy alongside this distinguished
Mississippian for several years.
being much of the time under
his command, we speak from
personal knowledge when we
com mend him to the kindly con-
sideration of our people as one
who is in every way worthy of
any trust that may be cOnfided
to her keeping. To the mOdesty
of maiden he adds the courage
and chivalry of a Bayard. In
battle he was the very persOni-
fcatiOn of a war god, but the
strife ended and found him ten
derby anxious for the welfare of
the wounded. No need to recall
these things to the minds of the
veterans of Sharp's and Brant-
ley's Brigades, for they are too
deeply craven upon their memo
ries ever to be forgotten. But
to the descendants Of those Mis-
siSsippianS who nObly upheld
the fair reputation of their State
in that awful era of blood and
strife we appeal to remem Der
this gallant man who led their
fathers to battle, and when the
proper time comes to prove at
the ballot box that they are not
inappreciative of his past ser
vice and his unstained record for
probity and integrity through
his life. In hOaoring Jake Sharp
Mississippians will be hOnOring
their State and themselves. "

Border Springs Items.

Since our last letter this com
munity has been saddened by
the death of one of its most popu-
lar young men, Mr.. Thomas Nor
ris. Mr.. Morris had been in de-
clining health for some time but
a recent change for worse re
suited in his death on the 10th.
He was a member of the Border
Springs Baptist church and a
regular mem Der of the Sunday
school until his health prohibited
him from attending, and he mani
tested a great interest in every
thing pertaining to church work
The health of our community
is very good at present.
On the first of last week this
community was visited by some
fine rains which put new life in
the oat crop and started the corn
to growing, but we have failed to
get d good stand of cotton.
The writer, with many others
from this community, enjoyed
the day last Sunday at Flint
Hill. In the forenoon Rev. Poe
preached a good sermon. In the
afternoon there was a fine song
service conducted by Prof. @. A.
Pullen, which was greatly enjoy
ed by all who attended.
The Sunday school at this
place on last Sunday elected Mr..
Judson Smith assistant superin-
tendent. Mr.. Smith was made
Sunday school teacher and we
think he will very ably fill the
position to which he has been
chosen.
Brother Plummer Cain, our
pastor, will preach at this place
next Saturday and Sunday, it
being his regular appointment.
It is rumored that the Fifth
Sunday or Union meeting will
take place at New Salem next

Brown cooIIy Watched Prices Soar.

New York. May 19.-(Specia)
During the wild trading in cot
ton today W. p. Brown, who was
res ponsible for the rise. stood in
the center of the cotton pit and
cody watched the prices soar.
Through his brokers. Atwood,
Vilott & Co. he kept pounding
the prices and when he drove to
the record mark, he said:
I am confident that cotton is
going higher. | can not tell you
how much higher. but that it will
go higher is as certain as that
the sun will rise tomorrow 1t
would seem that this prediction
is based upon statistical condi-
tions which make it certain that
the demand for cotton is greater
than the supply
All reports about cotton show
that the bull movement will con-
tinue for some time. Will there
ever be an end O, yes, some
time, but when is another ques-
ton. Others can predict the top
price if they want to guess, but
all [ will say is the highest prices
have not yet been reached.
AS for myself, [ am at the
head of w. 2. Brown & Co., of
New Orleans. No, [ will not
make New York my permanent
home. [ can not say when [ will
return home When a man has
finished d letter and has nothing
more to say he signs his name
and quits. It will be that way
with me. Anyhow. [ will stay
here indefinitely, dealing in cot
ton, until [ go back to New Or

sented by myself are engaged
in handling cotton in the South

Wall street is startled By
Browns daring, and memories
of Sully's bold speculations were
forgotten soon after Brown go
down to work to-day.

The great Confederate reunion
began yesterday in New Orleans
with, it is believed, the largest
crowd which has ever attended
any reunion. Every railroad en-
tering the Crescent City for the
past two days has unloaded
thousands of visitors and New
Orleans is in gala attire in honor
of the event.
The Columbus delegation to
the reunion numbered about 70
people about equally divided be-
tween both roads, a number OF
veterans. members of Isham
Harrison Camp and E. G. Leech
Camp being included in the mum
Der. The Veterans left via the
Southern and were provided with
through coaches which put them
in New Orleans yesterday morn
ing.
All hope that they will enjoy
their trip and reach home safely
