"when Johnny Comes Home

American to the backbone, positive
ly reeking with patriotism. yet with
not a vestige OF sectional or party
feeling anywhere throughout its two
brilliant acts, with neither an Irish
private or a German surgeon nor a
British war correspondent, such is
the new comic opera When Johnny
Comes Marching Home" which will
be presented at the Frazer on Janu-
airy Is, and yet it is the work of two
Englishmen, Stanislaus STANCE and
Julian Edwards.
The music Is said to be the best that
Mr.. Edwards has ever written. and Is
of that popular kind which is quickly
taken up and whistled everywhere.
Every patriotic air and every sweet
southern melody has been utilized by
Mr.. Edwards. he having interviewer
them most conspicuously throughout
his score in such masterful manner
that they are part and parcel of this
first successful American comic
opera.

BUILDING TRADES COUNCIL.
Trades Unions of California Have
Grown Rapidly.

San Jose, Cal, Jan. S.-The State
Building Trades Council OF California
opened its fifth annual convention in
Eagles hall this morning, with about
200 delegates. representing the vari-
Gus organizations in ever part of the
state. in attendance. The convention
was opened by General President P.
H. Mccarthy of San Francisco. The
mayor of San Jose delivered and ad-
dress OF welcome and the president
responded. Then the president read
his annual address and was followed
by the other officers of the organiza-
tion. who submitted their annual re-
ports.
The State Building Trade Council
has gained largely in me embership dur
ing the past year. Several new coun-
ellis have become affiliated, among
them the Building Trades council of
Fresno county the Building Trades
council Of Marion county and the
Building Trades council Of San Diego
county. The gain in membership has
been over 25 per cent.

usual importance owing to the fact
that a great many vital questions will
come up for consideration and discus
sion. Questions Of jurisdiction will
undoubtedly, take up considerable
time Of the convention. Recommend
atoms will be made and legislation
enacted whereby it is hoped that the
frequent and aggravating trade dis
putes between organizations may in
the future be largely eliminated.
The plan, so successfully pursued
by the building trades council in ad-
justing frictions Of this kind between
the unions will in all probability be
adopted by all the councils on recon-
mendation Of the state body. The
question Of perfecting and extending
the organization will also receive the
careful attention of the convention,
and II it is possible to excel the re-
markable record made by the council
during the year 1905, plans will be
laid and efforts made to do so during
the coming year.

CHICAGO SHEEP MARKET.
Choice lambs Selling Sold Saturday
for $3.50.

for $3.50.
The Chicago Livestock World gives
the following entertaining review of
the Chicago sheep market for the past
week:
The run fell down: that was all
there was TO II. Values were steady
to 10 cents higher. but the market
was so uneven that there were places
where prices looked lower. especially
on ewes. the spread between decent
and prime she stuff being about rs
cents. lambs, especially IL choice.
were wanted, choice selling up to
$3.50 in both native and western di-
visions.
Three doubles of fed Montana
lambs as good as have been here this
season made $3.50. The same price
was made by choice natives and there
was goodly showing at $7.S0@T75.
Yearlings were quotable at a range
of S6fo6.75. Good 94-fb stuff moved
at 1925 and where weight was in
evidence. they were not quotable
above $3.50. no matter Of what quail
ty Choice handyweights were worth
up to $6.75.
Choice wethers sold up to S6 and
that kind was in demand. Good to
choice fed wethers were worth 1915
G6, and fair stuff s5.5Od5.75. The
range on ewes was very wide, choice
being quotabe at $5.75, while decent
moved at IS and the bulk sold at S5.25
a $50. Pulp-fed ewes from Colorado
made $3.50. A band of 107-ib ewes
at $3.50 was 10 cents lower.
Native ewes of choice quality We're
quotable at S5.75, but the bulk moved
at s5.25 a 5.65. 1t required superb
quality and light weight to get top
prices.
Compared with the finish last week
prices do not show much change. The
range is about the same, although
there have been 10d lucent depres-
sions on in-between grades. Prices
have been maintained largely by a
moderate supply. Had the run been
heavy, concession would have been
needed to effect a clearance. In this
respect feeders have shown good
judgment.

THE MAN FOR SENATOR,

The concensus of opinion is that
John Sharp Williams is the man Of
the hour in the realm of Democracy
and that he is the ablest leader Of
the Democratic minority that the
South can send to Washington. We
believe this, for it is only too evi.
dent to those who have followed the
career Of Governor Vardaman that
whatever he does must be done
in a spectacular manner, if at all,
while Williams is conservative and
reasonable, as well as aggressive.
1t strikes US that the man who is
sent to Washington from Mississip-
pi should be able to lead the forces
within his own party, and at the
same time so conduct himself, with
out the sacrifice Of truth and princi-
pie, as to compel the kindly consid-

NO PRINTERS THERE.

The Ohio Penitentiary News, for
many years a famous and aourishing
daily paper published by convicts,
has suspended publication for the
very reason that there is not left in
that big penal institution a single
man who can handle type. There
is not a printer in the Ohio Peniten-
tiary.
Bankers are there in plenty. More
than twenty are there, and more are
on the way. Several convict banks
might be operated, with men to
spare. Enough lawyers are there to
take care Of an enormous amount of
legal business.
Doctors, brokers, and other "emi-
nently respectable citizens are not
lacking, Business men, farmers,
mechanics and representatives of al
most every other department Of in
dustrial activity are common here.
But there is not a printer.
The fact throws new light on a
character that has long been COM
monty misjudged. The printer to-
day is a homeowner. He is of fixed
employment and is the head of a
family. He is and always was
far above the average man in infor-
nation and intelligence. All the
notable events of human life that
pass through his hands makes an
impression upon his brain.
The fact that more than twenty
bankers are in the Ohio Penitentiary
and not a printer tells the relative
honesty of the printer today-and
tells more. 1t tells us that the most
common and most dangerous crimes
of today are not being committed
by the worlds workers Chicago

ANOTHER HONEST MAN TURNED UP.

A few years ago, we had a gentle
man who owed us $4,000, and had
been owing it for a long while be-
fore he came into the office one day,
took $4,000 from his pocket and,
handing it to us, reminded US that he
had said that he would pay the debt
If he ever made it. We were sur
prised, but glad to see him. The
money was a most welcome addition
to our small bank account. We
only wish there were more like him,
and as long as life lasts we shall
continue to hope that there are many
more like him.
This week, Mr.. Lavender informs
US he was surprised to receive a let
ter from an old customer Of his. who
had, about % years ago, left here
owing him twenty dollars. Mr..
Lavender says he had forgotten all
about the debt, but, as it was in our
case, he was not averse to receiving
it. The beauty of this case is that
gentleman added interest for all the
intervening years, and RENTED Fiji
ty dollars to pay the Indebtedness.
He is what we call an honest gentle
man.-Sardis Reporter.

THE GUbtRNA GUtSSES.

The Yazoo Saturday Evening
News makes the following comment
on the gubernatorial situation:
"A friend who has been through
the state somewhat was asked what
he thought of the prospects of the
candidates for Governor. He re-
piled that it was badly mixed, In
some communities he would find
Noel in the lead; in others Truly, in
others Scott, and in others Sisson.
And he said that those that thought
Brewer out of the race would find
themselves greatly mistaken"
The truth about the matter is
that no one knows much about the
gubernatorial situation, and in the
very nature of things cannot know
for some months yet. The cam
paign is young and the people have
not taken a deep interest in the
matter as they will when the fight is
on in earnest. All the candidates
no doubt are strong in certain To-
calities, and the man who volunteer
ed the information to the News is no
doubt right in his conclusions. The
field is a very large one, and the
men are all prominent and are good
campaigners. One thing seems to
be pretty certain, and that is that
it will take two primaries to deter
