domestic exhibitors. Mr.. Hartman in
discussing the railway question. said:
"The combination of different rail
ways should be regulated by law So
far as may be necessary the public in
terest should be protected by law. but
in so far as the law obstructs such
combinations without public benefit, it
is unwise and prejudicial to the pub
lie interest. [ do not deny that such
unfriendly and obstructive legislation
may have been in part caused by UNI
wise and arbitrary acts of railway
managers, but the evolution of eX-
perience has largely removed the con-
ditions which produced a conflict be-
tween State and railway interests and
the time has certainly come when the
State should no longer unnecessarily
burden or obstruct these interests, but
should cooperate in improving the
condition of transportation
After Michael Grave, commission
er general for France, spoke for the
foreign exhibitors, Secretary of War
w. H. Taft, acting as the representa-
tive of the President of the United
States, delivered the last address of

Immediately upon the conclusion
of the address of Secretary Taft, Di-
rector of Works Taylor, who stood at

waved a white ribbon to the men at
the various industrial buildings as a
signal, the mechanism used to unfurl
the banners was put in operation and
instantly thousands of flags fiuttered
from the poles on the many buildings
of the exposition.
To the thousands of visitors who
could not be at the scene where the
exercises were being conducted it was
the first sign that the fair was form
ally opened to the public. AS the nun
dreds of emblems floated in the
breezes, the crowds of sight-seers with
shouts of admiration in many por
tons of the grounds started for the
various view places, the banners, lonG-
ing an aair of activity to the impress

the grounds rendered inspiring music

AN OUTSIDERS OPINION

From the Hazlehurst Courier.
There is negro postmaster at Bay ST,
Louis, the home of Congressman Bow
ers, who is a candidate for recollection.
The Laurel Chronicle is supporting
Judge Deavours and asks this question
and uses as one Of the reasons why Mr..
Bowers should'be defeated; "Why has
Mr.. Bowers permitted this negro to re-
main there as postmaster That is the
question" The Courier is notinterested
IN the Congressional fight over in the
Sixth district only to the extent that it
wants to see the most capable man NOM
mated, but the question the Chronicle
puts to Mr.. Bowers is not fair one, and
in fact, is no question at all. A con-
gressman hasno means to remove post
master, no matter If he is negro and
presides over the post office OF the Con-
gressman's home. There have been
many negro postmasters in the South
since the war, but tho only one ever re-
moved without the sanction OF the gov
ernment postal authority was Minnie
Cox Of Indianola fame. In its efforts to
defeat Mr.. Bowers the Chronicle ought
to be fair. II Mr., Bowers opponents are
80 hard pressed for legitimate criticism,
he undoubtedly has q. good record and
such false issues will cut very little fig
ure with intelligent voters.

NOT EVEN WELL DEFINED mr..
MORS."


Tne editorial in recent issue of The
Echo In which by parallel columns the
press OF the Coast was shown to be AL
most in unit fayoring the candidacv
OF Congressman Bowers, while only the
BILOXI Review appeared on tho opposino
sioe, did not please our Biloxi contem-
porary, as all along this congressional
aignit has displayed pronounc- :
cd aversion for the truth. The Review
IN its attempt to "reply" made Ii appear
that every candidate supported by the
Coast papers lost in the respective towns
in which the publications are domiciled !.
that only the candidates it supported
were successful, and this was cited 40
make it appear that the papers referred
to were without strength and influence.
that II they were anything they were
Jonahs to the candidates whose cause
they espoused, and an effort was made IN
snow that history would repeat itself
with the newspapers supporting Mr.,
Bowers. But, as already stated, in'tbis
matter, the .keview has no regard for
facts and its article purporting to be a
reply to the Echo, well sustains this re :
putation, for throughout its length are
endless mis-statements.
The following clippings speak for Har-
rison and Jackson counties, The Echo
last week spoke for Hancock:
From the Pass Christian Beacon.
"ln referring to the position OF the
Coast papers in last years primary the
Biloxi Review says: "The Pass Christian
Beacon supported Money and vardaman
and the town went for Longino and
Critz. This Is another illustration of the
carelessness with which the Review is
handling the truth in the present Con-
gressional campaign. We would sue-
gest 10 Bro. McKie that he inform him
self Of facts before making such breaks
as the above"
From the Ocean Springs Progress.
Our friend across the bay, who edits
the Biloxi Review must be a little
wrought over the coming congressional
election when he makes the assertion
that The Progress supported Longino
and !Critz during the.last State campaign.
We will say to the gentleman of the
Review that at the Uime OF the State
election { last year the present editor
the Progress was only an employe. but
supported Money and vardaman to the
full extent of his ability and can back
his words by scores of citizens.
We will further state to our esteemed
contemporary. that The Progress was an
ardent supporter Of Senator Money and
did not take any hand in the gubernato-
rial fight.
We eare very sorry for our friend the
Review, but we must confess the truth,
that it will be badly, very badly, defeat
ed in the coming election, as Mr.. Bow
ers will carry the district by an over
whelming majority. He is the proper
man running for the proper place and
his return to Congress is as certain as we
have stars in the heavens.
