in 1889 IN a contest for the seat
of Gen. Thomas O. Catchings,
member of Congress from the
'shoestring" district, but failed
to obtain the seat. His next pub
lie Office was as register Of the
land Office in Jackson, which he
held during the first term of Pres
ident. He was an applicant for
re-appointment, but President
Roosevelt instituted q policy of
radical change in awarding fedtr-
al Offices and Hill was excluded
from the patronage list.
Hill was first made chairman Of
the Republican executive com.
mittee'in 1884 and held the Office
almost continuously until his
death. Up to three years ago he
dictated the award of almost the
entire federal patronage of the
State, occasionally being defeat
ed in his plans, however, by john
r. Lynch, and other leaders of
the party.
In his relations with the white
people Hill was always courteous
and deferential, and thus gained
for him the respect he always
maintained, He was never mar
ried, and for many years lived
with his aged mother in q neat
little cottage on West Capitol
street. He was a deputy grand
master of the negro Masonic fra
ternity, a member Of the African
Methodist church, and his funeral
which was held Sunday last, was
attended by many of the leading
colored men Of the State.

The People Will Think

When true men with no axe to
grind, no political debt to pay and
no political favors to ask 70 TO
the polls to cast their votes for q
candidate for Governor Of the
State in which they live for the
Chief Executive Officer Of the
Oommonwealth-they should and
will think carefully of the merits
of the aspirants before casting
their ballots. There may be a
good friend PERSONAL y in the race
he may be plausible speaker and
a pleasant gentleman, but is he
the man for Governors Is he a
man of executive FORGET Is he q
man under whose administration
the State would likely advance
morally, educationally, industrial
~ and commercially? such ques-
tions came to the mind Of the free
and untrameled voter. And these
questions when answered thought
fully will defeat Major James K.
Vardaman in his candidacy for
Governor. He has never proved q
conservative force in q business
life, mis- course as newspaper
writer is radical, his platform
as gubernatorial candidate is
radical, decidedly so. His cleo.
ton to the Office of Governor
would be an endorsement Of his
a1ical platform whether s0inten,
ded or not, and the mere endorse
ment of sucn views would have
a tendency to retard the material
progress of tho State. Personally
we wcnld have no objection to
Major Varlaman as Governor; but
the risk is t0great; we be We him
unsafe for the position and so be
isving we would be direlict in our
duty as q citizen and Democrat

on Thursday driving a pair of
horses 80 a single seat buggy and
accompanied by man, but left

the gold and silver buried during

There was treasure of 800. 600
in gold buried on Uncle Ben S
place, sbe said, and went on to
relate thar there were two white
men in the neighborhood who
were after her to get the money
.or them; but as the money was
on his place and she was North
ern woman and did not like the
way the Southern people imposed
ON the coJored race, she preferred
that Uncle Ben should have it.
The price for securing the treas.

Mississippi's fomous Negro Politician and
Republican Leader Dies at J. .ckson.

Republican Leader Dies at J-ckson.
James Hill, colored, leader of
the Republican party, chairman of
the Republican State executive
committee, national committee
man of his party for this State for
many years, and who for the past
quarter of century has been
prominent in political sffairs, died
at his home in Jackson suddenly
of heart failure on Thursday of
last week.
The death of James Hill will
not only cause profound regret
among the members of his own
race, but will also be deeply re-
gretted by white citizens, whose
RI tspect and confidence he always
retained. He belonged to the
class of negro leaders who always
avoid racial friction and sought
advice and assistance from the
whites. As the leader of his party
in this State he was supreme, at
tanning his present position and
holding it by natural strength and
ability. Often he was engaged in
spirited contests within the party
ranks, especially in the days Of
the Hill faction and the Lynch
faction, but since Lynch retired
from politics about three years
ago Hill has been supreme in
command, dictated all plans and
policies until President Roose.
velt assumed Office and changed
the status of political affairs in
the State, which placed Hill in
temporary retirement, although
he still retained a firm grasp on
the party machinery and main
tanned his position as chairman of
che State committee and national
committeeman.
Biographical.
James Hill was born in Mar
shall scounty about 81 years
ago. He was q man of striking
appearance, a type that one would
instantly single out as q leader
among his race.
During the early days of his
slavery Hill was apprenticed as q
,, machinist in the railroad shops at
Holly Springs, and quickly be.
came first class mechanic. His
first political position was as
member Of the Legislature from
Marshall county shortly after the
var, serving a full term IN that
body and voting for the negro
leader, Hiram kevels, who was
elected to The United States Sen
ate, being the first Mississippi ne.
gro to hold that position.
Hill was elected Secretary of
State of Mississippi when Gov.
Adelbert Ames went into Office
after the celebrated election of
1874. He held this Office until
1878, being allowed to remain
when the people ousted the car
petbaggcr government, and serv>
ing the remainder of the term un-
der Gov. John M. Stone.
Hill was next appointed intern
al revenue collector for the Mis-
sissippi district with head quarters
at Vicksburg, Mississippi and
Louisiana then being separate rev.
enue districts. He held this place
twelve. yeass, and on retiring was
appointed postmaster at vicks-
burg, enjoying the distinction Of
being the only postmaster in this
State who ever served a full term
of four years without being con.

THE MELVILLE
SMITH INDICTMENTS.


The Herald is not going TO question
the sincerity and honesty of the grand
jury in reporting indictments against
l. b. Melville and Silas w. Smith as
that body only had one side TO go by
and was guided solely on what was
submitted.
The matter is in the hands of the
court and extended comment is out
OF place, but we do contend that the
defendants are entitled to speedy
trial; that they be given an opportun-
ity OF being heard at the present term
of court when we are confident they
will be found guiltless.
We understand the charge is they
failed to account in their atIidayits
for certain election campaign monies
received and expended. Both gentle
men desire an immediate hearing and
we trust the court will be able to
grant the demand as we are confident
what the result will be when their
side of the case is presented. The
matter being in the hands of the court
10 settle at once 1t Is not proper. as
stated, to go over the facts in the
case at this time.
