The Bolivar County Democrat. (Rosedale, Miss.) 1887-1969, 1906-04-28

Fully realizing this momentous
fact, I shall earnestly favor for the
dominant race adequate, indeed,
liberal, appropriations for educa
tional purposes, so as to afford a
coed common school education,
free of cost, to every child within
the confines of the state. Missis-
sippi is already justly commended
for her liberality in such matters,
but / should like to see more money
devoted to the neighborhood
schools, for the benefit of those Of
our people who, for want of means,
can not afford to give their children
a collegiate education. With the
continued rapid development of our
resources and the large increase in
taxable property which will be
secured as one result of wise and
economical state administration,
this can be done without adding
one cent to Our tax rate, and with
out deducting one cent from the
higher educational institutions for
both sexes, which are deserving of
every care and consideration at the
hands of the state.
All highly civilized nations have
long ago approved the Importance
of general education, and the Ger
mans are especially active along
this line. We are informed by a
recent writer of note, that they
provide education up a to certain
point, which would be a high one
if taken upon any standard applied
in the United States, compulsory
to the youth of both sexes, and be-
yond that point they offer, at
very small cost, the highest posi-
bic education for those who seek
it. +"
I do not believe in compulsory
education in this country nor is it
necessary here, but l submit that
the proud state of Mississippi, the
state of Davis and Lamar and
George and Walthall and many
| other eminent statemen and publ
cists, should see to it that proper
educational facilities are afforded
all the, children, ranging from the
kindergarten and common school
instruction up to the highest clas-
sical and scientific education attain
able under modern methods, not
neg1ecting by any means, the in
dustrial, chronological, and agri-
cultural branches, which be Of the
greatest practical benefit, in proper
ly developing the varied resources
of the state.
The foregoing are my views with
reference to the white population
of the state. AS for the education OF
the negro population, l am strong
lv impressed with the idea that II
should be. for the most part, along
industrial lines SO as to aid i'll prac-
ticallv equipping them, as far as
possible, for the useful duties which
they are~to perform.
l favor, in the main, the primary
election laws, including this meth
od of voting for our representatives
in the United States Senate.

LENrz RELEASED ON BOND.

Greenville, Miss. April 25.-J. Z.
Lentz, chief electrician for the Delta
Electric Light, Power and Manutactur-
ing Co.. who few days ago shot and
dangerously wounded Charles Deter has
been released on bond of ono thoused
dollars, by agreement Of lawyers for both
the defense and prosecution. MIR. letter
is slowly improving and it isnow believ-
ed that he will recover. Late develop
ments tend 10 sustain the plea of Mr..
Lentz that he had shot Jeter i'll self de-
tense.
The Bolivar County Democrat. (Rosedale, Miss.) 1887-1969, 1906-04-28

The democratic voters of the
state should and will vote for every
candidate, / am sure, according to
their respective views of his hon
esty, ability, and fidelity, all of
which are necessary qualifications
for the proper and satisfactory dis
charge of his official duties. This
is one of the greatest benefits secur
ed to us by the primary election
laws, and no trades, combinations,
or promises of official appointment
should be countenanced or tolerat-
ed or approved.
If elected governor, as expect
to be, l shall give the state all in
telligent business administration
along practical lines, such as may
seem requisite and necessary for
the conservation and betterment
of the material interests of the
whole people.
Being a firm believer in the prin-
ciples of the democratic party,
which gives equal rights and op-
portunitiss to all, and special priv
ileges to none, and fully realizing
with all true Mississippians that
we are indebted to this party of
Jefferson and Jackson for the pre-
servation and maintenance of civ
ilization and white supremacy in
the south, l shall continue i'll the
future, as in the past, to be guided
in matters political by the party
mandate and the party policy.
shall not play pea nut poll
tics" however, nor shall l pro-
claim any doctrine of false democ-
racy, to the detrinent of the true
interests of our people, all of whom
are alike concerned in upholdlng
the majesty of the law and i'll the
welfare of the community.
In my efforts in this direction, l
shall confidently rely OH the coop
Grafton Of the whole citizenship of
Mississippi. Distinguished at all
times, by their probity, industry
and earnest patriotism, they will
take pleasure in helping to develop
and utilize the marvellous resources
and potentialities of Our beloved
state, many of which, now dormant,
only await the vitalizing touch OF
capital and opportunity to spring
into life, thus adding enormously
to the wealth of the state, by in
creasng the value of our cotton and
other products, through the estab-
I lishment of cotton factories and
woodwork factories of various sorts
and other plants throughout Our
borders.
1t is admitted by all patriots and
publicists that the prosperity of the
people, the morality of society, and
the safety, and perpetuity of our
political institutions are dependent,
primarily, on the education and in
telligence of the people. We car
not marvel, then, that the free
school system of American has al
ways been, and is now, recorded a:
the foundation stone upon which
rests our whole social and polltlaal
fabric.

that my long and varied experience
as a lawyer of extensive practice

tive ability, may assist somewhat,
in the intelligent and conscientious
discharge of the varied and COM
plex duties devolving upon the
chief executive of a great state, to
which duties I shall earnestly and
assiduously devote my whole Of
fetal life, having already taken the
preliminary steps necessary by SO
arranging my private affairs that
they will require no part of my time
nor attention after the present year.
TO begin with, want it distinct

am running solely on my own mer'
it's, whatever they may be, and not
on the demerits, real or i'm mlginary
of any of my numerous and honor
able competitors.
will state further, at the out
set, that I have not made, nor do
intend to make, any trade or COM
bination with any other candidate
or candidates for any Office, state,
county, municipal or national.

any office or appointment or emol-
ument which has been, or which

acting alone in his official capacity
or as a member of any committee
or other official board. Not only
so, but I distinctly state that nc
one is now or shall hereafter be
authorized to make any promise
whatever in my name. No rea
friend of mine will seek to misrep
resent me in this, or any other mat
ter; and if any pretended friend
or other person, should pretend tt

promise, directly or indirectly, by
