| Natchez Democrat Aug. sth,l
Congressman f. a. McLain, of
lGloster, and his opponent, w. b.
Nixon. Of McComb City, are ID
Natchez today, having come down
yesterday from Fayette, Jeifer-
son county, where they addressed
tthe electors Monday night. They
leave this afternoon for Port Glib
son, where they meet in joint de-
bate to night. They will return
here In the next three weeks and
address mass meeting.
Congressman McLain is conf
dent of securing the nomination
at the primary which is to be
held throughout the district on
August %. Adams county is a
MeLain stronghold.
Congressman McLain looks as
fine as silk, and he Is the same,
genial, approaohable gentleman

|lltical campaigns. Since his last
visit here be has had his moustache
shaved off and his frank, honest
face looks ten years younger.
lie was given a most cordial
welcome on all sides and quite a
number of his old friends looked
him up.
One Of the first remarks he
heard was in the way of congrat-
Hulations for the handsome post
office he secured for Natchez, but
he was quick to reply that Match
ez sent a committee up to Wash
ington to help him out on that.
He visited the postoffice during
the morning and expressed his
pleasure at its attractive appear
Iance and was gratified to hear the
expressions of pleasure from
Natchezians on the appearance of
the building
He will make, an attempt to
secure a local station of the
Omitted States Weather Bureau for
Natchez and his constituents in
Adams county feel satisfied that
# any man can get it, Congress
man McLain is the man.
Speaking Of the last session of
Congress, which adjourned June
30th, Congressman McLain said
that it was the most important of
any Congress for many years.
While some Of the bills were not
satisfactory to the Democrats, the
Republicans had stolen consider
able Democratic thunder, but the
democrats had succeeded in show
ing the larceny every time.
As for his work in Congress
during the last session and pre-
lceedlng Congress, he said that he
| felt proud of his record and felt
| that be could stand upon it before
his constituents with every assur-
ance that it will be endorsed by
them.

and most assuredly every dollar
that belonged to the people should

A COMPROMISE
Is Expected With Mill
Operatives at Fall River.
Mills Say Cannot Afford to
Restore the 1903 Rates.

2i.70 Cents Is Asked.

Fail River Mass, Nov. 1G-The eX-
eCutiVe committee of the Fan RIVER
Manufacturers Association held Il
meeting today to discuss the demand Of
the Textile Council for an advance in
Inc wages of the cotton mil operatives.
None of the treasurerS who attended
the meeting would make Il statement
concerning the conclusions reached, but
IL Is thought that Il compromise ar
rangement Will be suggested To TN"
Textile Council in Il letter which Will
probably reach the union representa-
t!VeS tomorrow. The council named
Nov. - as the latest date for the re-
ce'pt Of 4 reply.
The operatives feel that in view of
the prosperous state of the industry
they should receive higher wages. The
Textile Council asks that the price
paid for weaving be advanced from
l9So cents Per cut. the present price,
10 2l.1S cents. the rate paid prior to the
reduction Of 1902
The manufacturers do not feel that
they can profitably pay Pts cents I'M
less the wage schedules in other mill
ttnt@rS shall be adjusted to meet a 10

compromise will be attempted.
