According to a citizen Of Gulf
port, the city council Of that place
has just completed a municipal CEN
sus which shows that Gulfport has
an actual population Of 4,112. In
cluding the suburbs, which are in
reality part Of the city, the popu-
lation is about $500, and with the
extension Of the corporate limits
Gulfport hopes to secure free mail
delivery. Mississippi's principal ex-
port point has enjoyed marvellous
growth during the past few years.

four years ago Gulfport was cred-
tied with population of only 1000.
The town has grown to four times
her population of four years ago, or
at the rate Of 100 per cent each
year.

next month, is to be asked to modify
It's rule against dancing. At present
dancing is strictly prohibited, as
leading to sin. The proposed modifi-
cation is to the effect that the church
shall "advise" against dancing but
not prohibit 1t. At a meeting of Meth

days ago several clergymen declared
they couldn't see any wrong in little

MAYOR MYERS ON HEARST.

Mayor Myers, of Savannah, has re-
turned home from trip to the North.
where he sought to learn something
definite concerning the Democratic
presidential situation The mayor de-
clares in an interview published in the
Savannah papers that the Democrats
of New York aud Washington are just
as much in the dark as to who the pal
ty should nominate for the presidency
as we are right here in Georgia. The
mayor says one hears Judge Parker's
name mentioned oftener in business
circles than that of any OF the other
probable candidates.
The most striking feature of the
mayors interview is his opinion that
if Mr.. Hearst is not strong enough to
win the nomination for president, he
will be given the second place on the
ticket. The following are the exact
words of the mayor regarding Mr.
Hearst: "Hearst Is by far the mos
popular candidate among the laborlng
classes, but the business and financial
world Is not inclined to look upon his
candidacy with seriousness 1 am in,
clined to believe that Hearst will go Il
the convention with big following
and if man outside of the State O
New York is nominated for the frs
place on the ticket the newspaper mag
nate will receive the second place
His friends are enthusiastic, and ar,
Rot leaving single stone unturnet
to bring about his nomination for tn,
first place."

events, an astute politician, and usual
ly sees the trend of affairs as quick a
any one
