SCOTT ADDS STRENGTH.


Iuka, Miss, July 9.-Hon. Charles
Scott was among the people of Tish-
mingo county at Iuka today and added
by his presence a host of supporters to
his already numerous following. He
made an inpromptu address to the
people at the courthouse on the new po-
litical question; deeming it too early to
begin the campaign. His address was
most cordially received and his tribute
to the memory of his old friend, the late
Gov. Stone, a man who was with the
people, touched the hearts Of his au-
dience to tears.
Charles Scott convinced his hearers OF
of his ability to fill any office within
their gift, and it is predicted by mcn cap
able OF seeing coming events that Boli-
vur comfy will furnish Governor Varda-
mans successor-Vicksburg Herald.

SCOTT TO THE FARMERS.

MIR. Clas. Scott made an address be-
fore an assembly OF farmers at Grange
Hall, Warren county, i'll which he dis
cussed public matters and spoke partic-
ularv of the benefits of the Southern
Cotton Association, which has saved
millions OF dollars TO the people OF the
South.
He spoke of some of the evils prevalent
in the South today which need correc-
ton. For instance, Each year eight TO
ten million of dollars arc sent to the
West Tor grain, $2,O00,000 Tor hay and
$40, 1000, 900 must be keptin Mississippi.
Speaking of his farming operations,
Mr.. Scott said that he planted cotton
for the shere love OF planting. In beauti-
full language he described the Subtle
beauty OF Il cotton field with it's count
less stalks of green caps, with spotless
white, of the crude but seductive melody
of the negroes song; of night time when
the moon flooded the field with mellow
radiance and all was still save the

refrain aud rejoice with her. till the whole
country vibrates and reverberates with
the glad song that had its birth

Mr. Scott is he advocate of measures

SCOTTS PROSPECT GROWS
BRIGHTER.

Nearly all the candidates for
Governor disappeared from view
after the announcements except
the Hon. Chas. Scott, whose polit-
ical star grows more resplendent
every day. His entire time is ia
ken up in responding to invitations
to address colleges, schools and 9th
er public gatherings, and he can
not accept half the invitations re-
ceived. Everywhere he is being
received by enthr iastic and loyal
audiences, and substantial men
from all over the State are volun
teering their support 10 him for
Governor.
Aside from his magnetic person
ality and splendid character, there
are other reasons for the great pop
ularity of Mr.. Scott. Chief among
these is that tbe people know him.
He has been tried in the severest
tests to which mortal man could be
subjected, and has emerged every
time triumphant and splendid. The
people know this, and in view of
the great grating schemes unearth-
ed all over the country, they do not
propose to take chances. While
many of Mr.. Scott's opponents are
men of splendid character, they
are young. They have not been
tried in the crucibles that forge
strong men. AS consequence,
intelligent men everywhere are
rallying around the standard of
Mr.. Scott, and every day his pros
poets become more invincible-

HON. CHAS. SCOTT.

Hon. Chas. Scott stopped off
here Monday enroute to Starkville,
and by invitation, addressed a
large audience of people at the
court house. This being the first
day of court the town was crowded
and the court house was packed
with people anxious to hear this
popular candidate for Governor.
His speech was directed to agri-
culture, cotton raising and market
ing being the main feature. OF
course the subject was handled i'll
an able and interesting manner, as
Mr.. Scott is large cotton raiser
and has devoted much time to the
study of same. His speech was
listened to very attentively, and
the favorable impression made on
the audience was easily noted dur
ing and after his speech
He is one of our States's most re-
sourceful citizens and most fitted
for the position he seeks--The

THE FIELD AGAINST SCOTT.


We clip the following correspondence
from the Vicksburg Herald:
For weeks past it has been conceded
that Scott has the lead and this is fur
ther pro ven by the fact that every one
oi the candidates has turned his guns OH
him. Nor tile moment the field has unit
ed against him, bound together by the
common interest or tie-that Scott must
be beaten before any Of them will have
a chance to get in the running. Mr..
Scott's friends are confidently retaining
his election on the first primary, and the.
natural result OF his extraordinary lead
makes him the target Of all the other
candidates. Naturally also, it is wise
Tor them to do and say everything in
their power to endeavor to minimize his
strength. 1t will be Il common thing
therefore, to hear the friends OF other can
didates proclaimirg that one or the 9th
er of them is gaining ground and a
common thing to hear lie friends OF all
OF them proclaiming that Scott is los
ing" All admit ''if Scott can hold what
he has he will be elected" But all quail
ify this by asserting that he wil not he
able ito hold" Why they do not know.
The campaign is entering upon most
interesting stage just now, since each OF
the other candidates has just awakened
to the fact that Scott has been already
picked for the winner and this too before
, the campaign has fairly begun, and be-
fore the most of the people have had
aHopportunity OF meeting him and

The Bolivar County Democrat. (Rosedale, Miss.) 1887-1969, 1906-07-28

bar, as a farmer and a business
man, and verging OH toward ripe
age, Mr.. Scott gives way to laud-
able ambition, and is willing and
desires to devote to his state for a
term the sound judgment, good
sense and grasp of affairs and 9th
er qualities that have made his own
private career so conspicuous a Sue
cess. There is nothing in his whole
life that is more becoming than
this ambition to serve his state,
nor is it fair and just to damn him
with censures on his wealth. In
the first place it is nothing conf
pared to what are called large for
tunes i'll the north; it is not large
compared with many fortunes in
this very state.
And every dollar of it came hon
estly from honest endeavor and
honest ability.
Surely one who was so inti.n7te
ly acquainted with poverty i'll his
early days and whose spirit made
its pangs especially bitter to him is
not likelily to be lacking III synpa-
thy with the poor. There IS aot n
poor boy in the state whose feeling
Mr.. Scott does not not know and
with whose ambition he does not
sympatrize. He has trod the same
paths, endured the same trials, and
being as every one knows, gem
erous kindly man, he is one OF the
last men deserving such structures
as the Sentinel puts up on him.
With those who write themselves
down as failures, with those who
have no faith in work and economy
to rise above stark poverty, Mr..
Scott may not possibly be prime
favolite. If the policy of the state
is to be drawn along such lines as
suit these and such are to dictate
her officers, Mr-Scott may fail to
measure up, or down, to the stand
ard. But all who believe in growth
and progress and betterment and
who like men who have conquered
adverse circumstances and honora-
bly achieved success will find in
Mr.. Scott a gentleman we'll worthy
to be Mississippi's governor and a
fine representative of the better ell
ements in our state life.-Macon
