The Greenvsll' Democrat, is not
ing the candidacy Of the four gen
tlemen who have formally announced
themselves for Governor, hands to
each Of the distinguished ontestants,
who possess elements Of strength,
the following neat little nosegays:
MIR. Noel is one of the best known
men, personally, in the State, is a
sple,4did tallSer and genial gentle
man personally. Mr.. Brewer is bril-
liant eampaigner and neither asks
nor gives quarter on the stump. Mr..
Scott is a courtly, magnetic gentle
man, with ability as a lawyer and
business man, also an eloquent speak
er, but little known ia State politics.
Judge Truly is a man of pre-eminent
ability and OF pleasing personality; a
man cf strong convictions and the
courage to maintain them; and thus
we may conclude from the personnel
of the candidates already announced
that a brilliant campaign for Govern
or is certainty for next year.

A certain prosy preacher recently

on the minor prophets. At last he
finished them, and the congregation
gave Sigh of relief. He took d long

This editorial from the Biloxi Her
aid comes SO nearly expressing some
views we have upon the Governor
ship that we reproduce it in full:
The hour is approaching when
Mississippi must select governor.
This is always a matter of great i'm
portance, but never in our eventful
past has it been more need 'ul that
our citizens should exercise greater
care and judgment than in the preg-
nant now.
The entire press of the State
should be arousing the people to an
earnest search for the right man to
properly fill the gubernatorial chair.
Beyond question the times demand
the very best man in our state should
be chosen. He should be no untried
citizen, but one who has already
made himself felt in his local surroun-
dings as possessing the gift of lead
ershiship, one whose integrity has
stood the strain Of past trials and
has shown power of conquest in con
flicts with wrong. We need man Of
strong. convict.olS based upon wise
investigation One who is undaunted
by difficulties and born to do and TO
dare. Mississippi is not poor in such
men nor has she to be ashamed OF
many Of her mighty men who have
fought our battles in the past. We
believe there J. are Lamars yet among
us who will make Mississippl's star
shine the brightest amid the galaxy
that adorns the blue Of our flag.
No mere politician can fill the bill:
no one of moderate ability; no mar
row egotist so filed with his own
little greatness that his brain has
never measured breadth and length
of any but his own small field He
must be manly man who can share
equally the honors Of such peers OF
the realm as a Folk. a Hardy, q Pat
ison and the like, who are now NOV
ing their respective states into just
prominence as active parts of our
great commonwealth Not for an
instant should The hunt for such a

OF the executive council.
The plan Of enrolment, as explained
By Mr.. Pocock, is as follows:
Every district in the world where
there are Britishers contains some men
who have seen service in the wilder
ness or at sea. These we will bring
into contact and ask them to form a
club. We do not care whether this is
/ social, sporting, athletic, rifle, polo,
racing or hunting club; its premises
may be palace, room in a pubic
house, or rain swept tents; it's funds
may be as large or small as it's men,
bers please; but it must elect chair
man, treasurer and secretary and i.
must subscribe to our rules before il
becomes command OF the Legion of
Frontiersmen. The most important
command will be that in London, the
rallying center for our tribe through
out the world.
The main advantage of member
ship in the Legion OF Frontiersmen
will be right of entry in its games;
These games will be competitions in
such matters as shooting, wrestling,
loading a pack horse. rough riding,
rough driving, scouting and raiding,
ali OF direct use as training for war
The district games in each state or
province will be played for sweep
stakes to find the champion teams.

pecially adapted in war;" said Mr.. Po-

Woman's Suffrage in Italy.

The agitation of woman's suffrage
has spread to Italy, and it is quite
on the cards that a lady will come
forward as candidate for Mantua. 1t
is enough to make Virgil turn in his
grave; but the city On the Mincio has
changed a good deal of late. The in
dustrial revival of Lambardy has not
passed it by, and now that it is on
a great railway line it is no more the
sleepy place OF last century. There is,
in fact, hardly a town in the whole
province that has not it's factory; one

new BRITISH LEGION
ORDER IS FORMED TO AID IN
TIME OF WAR.
Unique Organization Composed of Men
Who Have Been Seasoned by
Frontier Life Is World
Wide in Scope.

During Our war with Spain the
novel organization known as the rough
riders was formed and proved superior
il many respects to the trained SOL
diers of the regular army, made up as
it was of men toughened to hardship,
Indifferent TO danger and resourceful
in whatever situation they might be
placed.
In England there has just been form
ed what in some respects is duplicate
OF the rough riders, in that it is made
up of frontiersmen, men who have been
seasoned in the school of hardships
and dangers, and have learned to face
dangers and get out of difficulties. But
the idea of the organization was not
borrowed from America and the rough
riders, for the founder of the new
army, Roger Pocock, gained his first
inspiration for the organization while
serving his country in the Boer war.
Il realized then" he says, that we
frontiersmen were being put to wrong
uses, and my subsequent experience
in the campaign strengthened that
conviction. We had tumbled all over
each other to take a hand in the fight.
Outnumbering the Beers, we frontiers
men of the empire, instead of beating
them at their own game, frittered
away our strength playing at soldiers
and initiating Tommy. 1t is with no
grudge, but with loving admiration
that We own up now how well we
knew his business. But had we come,
not as amateurs, but as guides, as
scouts, as pioneers, as hOrSemen for
flying raids, with our own leaders and
organization, our own methods, tools,
| and weapons we might have done
much to bring the war to a swifter,
| more decisive, more merciful ending"
This new order of frontiersmen has
gained the sanction of the new liberal
| secretary of war, Mr.. Haldan, and it is
planned that its field of operations
shall extend to every part of the Brit
ish empire, and include the rough and
| ready type of men to be found
wherever privations have to be en-
dured, dangers faced and difficulties
| overcome.
The Earl of Lonsdale has been
chosen as leader of the new order. He
is the only explorer who ever crossed
arctic America and one of the few
arctic explorers who never needed a
| rescue expedition. He is also an old
Wyoming hunter, and is accounted the
best horse master tracker in England.

Vegetable G0E,spousfes

The wonderful power of Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound over
the diseases of womankind is not be-
cause it is a stimulant. not because it
is palliative. but simply because it is
the most wonderful tonic and recon-
structor ever discovered to act directly
upon the generative organs. positively
curing disease and restoring health and
vigor.
Marvellous cures are reported from
all parts of the country by women who
have been cured, trained nurses who
have witnessed cures and physicians
who have recognized the virtue of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, and are fair enough to give
credit where it is dine
If physicians dared to be frank and
open, hundreds of them would ael1nowi-
edge that they constantly prescribe
Lydia Z. Piukham's Vegetable Com
pound in severe cases of female ills. as
they know by experience it can be re-
lied upon to effect q cure. The follow
ing letter proves it.
DR.. S. G. Brigham, of 4 Brigham

cit gives me great pleasure to say that I
have found Lydia E. Pinkham's Veeetab,e
scribe it in my practice for female difficulties.
"My oldest daughter found it very benefi.

youngest daughter is now taking it for a fe.

Women who are troubled with pain

for six months, and during this time

not able to work. Some one spoke to
me about Cuticura. The consequences
were l bought a set of the Cuticura
Remedies of one of my friends who
was druggist. and the praise that
gave after the second application is
beyond description; it seemed a mir
acle for the Cuticura Remedies took
