Coming toa close review of the Sit
nation, we would say that accounts
seem to clearly predicate the carry
ing of Greene, Wayne and Hancock
counties by Harrison. This last
named county is like Wayne, without
candidate in the field and its lead
ing politicians have from the outset
bccn most friendly to our Favorite,
while its masses have in numbers
pledged their electorate. Then Har-
rison will sweep the upper end of
Jackson County, get q good scatter
ing vote out of it extending down
into Moss Point, where he will run
Billiard close. Over in Harrison
county, the home Of Mize and Par
ker, Harrison will receive very COM
plimentary showering OF votes at
Gulfport, which polls heavy ballot,
he will carry Ocean Springs, run
well at McHenrv, and get u sprink-
ling of ballots over the whole of that
county.
The question we now would treat
is will he go in? In our opinion this
depends in q large measure upon
how the voters of Wayne and Greene
county turn out. These counties
have but few large towns, hence
their populace will have to travel
some distance to the voting places.
Ii they turn out in sufficient num-
bers to give Harrison the start of he
should have, then what he secures in
Hancock county, and picks up in
Jackson and Harrison will secure his
election, but we consider the run is
going to be C lose on account of the
inequality in population between the
two up country counties and the
Coast counties.
Allow us to emphasize upon every
qualified elector in Greene and Wayne
County, ana in the other counties
that really desire to see Harrison be-
come our next District Attorney,
the Importance of turning out each
and every one of you next Tuesday
and cast vote with the familiar X
mark opposite the name of B. p.
Harrison. Your doing SO will we
believe insure his election; we await
the result, relying aud believing in
the loyalty of his friends to win for
him Victory

LET us study the value of the leau-
tiful. The influence of the beautiful
is largely of a subconscious nature,
it is silent, pcrmcating and powerful.
The ministry of the beautiful has a
refining effect. A tlste for music,
poetry. pictures, etc., tends to de-
stroy the attraction of the vulgar
A home of beauty, OF taste and re-
fincment always tends to elevate and
ennoble the mind, and cultivate the
spirit of contentment Beauty fills
the world, as well as heaven, If we
have eyes to see it. 1t is open to all.
The rose is as fragrant, the lily as
white aud the hyacinth, as delicately
blue, when cultivated by the poor, as
by the jeweled fingers of the wealthy
-
HALF the JOY of life comes from
getting good out of things as we go
along. Some Of us are always put
ting off our enjoymcnts. After a
while we expect to take a rest, see ?
friend, read a book. But after a
while never comes. The good time
we are looking forward to lies as far
away as ever. All our life is spent
in meaning to overtake it and enjoy
it, Meanwhile we toll, drudge, and
grow old, passing by with unseeing
eye the happiness we might get out
OF every day.

fulness if one is unselfish. Ordinary
every day life affords SO many oppor
tunities for doing some good service.
A gentle word spoken to one who is

an earnest word of warning to any
one who be in danger of folly, all
these little things are very helpful.
