BASE BALL
Games With Big Duluths Sunday
and Monday Will Draw
Big Crowds.

The two games of base ball
which will be played on the local
field between the Big Duluths
and Bemidji will without doubt
be the fastest exhibitions of ball
playing ever seen by the people
of the city during tile present
season. The Bemidji aggrega-
ton will be strengthened for the
games by the addition Of one or
two outside players, and Louis
Roy, who was injured some time
ago, will also take part in the
games. The management ex-
poets a good turnout from the
people of Bemidji, as it is under
very heavy expense in securing
the Big Duluth team.

The pills that. are potent in
their action and pleasant in effect
are Dewitt S Little Early Risers.
W. S. Philpot, Of Albany, Ga.
says: During bilious attack
[ took one. Small as it was it
did me more good than calomel,
blue mass or any other pill [
ever took and at the same time
the effect was pleasant. Little
Early Risers are certainly an
ideal pill" Sold by B. A. Barker.

POLITICS

Concerning the canvass for the
nomination for superintendent of
schools the Blackjack Times
says: Chief among the impor-
tant offices to be considered by
the voters at the coming primar
les IS that of superintendent of
schools. An enormous amount
of money is being paid each year
by the tax payers for their sup
port and it is only right and just
that they should demand of the
officer entrusted with their care
some return for this generous
outlay Of money. The people are
fortunate IN having an opportun-
ity this year to vote for man
who ranks high among the edu-
Gators Of our state. A conscien-
tlous and untiring worker who
understands every detail of the
school work and possesses all the
qualities necessary for an ideal
superintendent. We refer to j.
}, Regain who is one of the pio-
neers Of our county and we hope
that every person interested in
education will place an x after
his name at the primaries.

Attorney John F.Gibbons' can
vass for the republican nominal
ton for county attorney is meet
ing with increasing favor through
out the county. Wherever he is
known Mr.. Gibbons has hosts of
friends and they are all busy
placing his qualifications before
those who do not know him. But
Mr.. Gibbons is not going upon
the theory that his friends are
going to do it all. He is spa1ing
no time or pains to give every
voter an opportunity to judge fol
himself whether he ought to be
elected county attorney. Mr..
Gibbons is urging no one to vote
for him or to work for him but
he is doing his best to let every
one know what qualifications he
has leaving the matter of the final
choice to each individual voter to
settle for himself.
A desperate effort is being
made by Mr.. Hays, who publishes
a politicalpaper, to make it ap-
pear that the Scandinavians of
the county are being maligned,
insulted and kicked about gener-
ally, wherefore argues Mr.. Hays
the Scandinavians should stand
together to a man and vote for
the men whom Mr.. Hays has
picked out. The Scandinavians,
like the Germans, the French
men and all other orleans,
will vote pretty much as they
please, however, being fond of
nominating and electing the men
they think best and not the men

soldiers and statesmen! Whose blood is
not stirred at the remembrance of
those moment ous days of February and
March, 1898, when the Nations blood
was burning with indignation at the
blowing up of the MaineY Who has
forgotten those awful days of anxiety
when the nation was holding it's very
breath whilc waiting for the Court of
Inquiry's report? And when the ad-
ministration was hesitating, and Mark
Hanna and Wall Street were shouting
with all their might, peace at
any pr,ce! who was it that rushed
to the fr-nt, demanding revenge for
the brave sailors who persisted in
Havana harbor, and saved the ma
tion's honorY Was it Mr.. Dooley? No.
Even that great statesman and patriot
shirked the issue. Who was it, then?
It.was theta How the nations blood
did Jingle when the news came from

Strong Opposition 10 State Game
Law.

Shelbyvile, Tenn. Jan. 13.-It is
evident here that In this county "
strong fight will be made In Opposition
TO the present game law of the state.
Opponents OF the law hold that fhe law
Is no protection to quail, and that 1t
is still less protection TO the farmer.
1t is argued rhat the only person bene-
fitted by the law are the city sportsmen,
who are always ready to pay the
license fee, while the country boy
wishing to hunt and kill quail is de
barred from doing so because Of his iu-
ability TO pay the license TAX.
1t IL he'd, too, ny enemies of the
law that quail are legitimate article
of commerce., ana that every person
should have the legal right to buy and
ship quail. These are some Of the
OBJECTIONS urged against the present
law. and candidates for TIE Legislature
will 90 closely INTERCEPTED as to no

STIVERSVILLE
TO The FRONT
Gel. J. p. Hickman and Other
Prominent Citizens Offer
$11O, 900 for the New Court
House.

Col. Jim Hickman, of Lynnville, was
In the city Monday, and while here
sprung another scheme by which to de-
prive Columbia of the county site OF
Maury county. Col. Hickman wants
10 move the court house to Stiversville.
He has farm of about 240 acres loca-
Ted at that place, and he proposes that
If the county site will be moved there,
the citizens of that enterprising village
will not only build the county 100000
the county $4,000 cash.
Col. Hickman claims that Stivers-
vile has several claims that must be
given consideration. In the first place,
ne says that place is almost as isolated
as Mt Pleasant, and it has the addition
al advant .ge of being great deal more
quiet. The court would have no trouble
hearing the testimony of the witnesses,
which was one of the arguments used
for building the new court house. He
says the noise OF the Phosphate City
must necessarily handicap that towns
ambition for the structure. Col Hick-
man says the citizens of Stiversville are
enthusiastic over the proposition, and
they are determined that the matter
shall come to a vote. He says that
committee of representative citizens
from the Board of Trade and the Com
mercial Club, headed by the Mayor and
City Council of the city of St,versville
win appear before the next Quarterly
Court and make strenuous effort to
have the question submitted to "a vote
Df the people. Col. Hickman says that
his proposition is meeting with general
Fayor" and that "a general movement
seems to be headed towards Stivers
vile.
