With hopes flushed with success and

they will engage in, the Varsity squad
will meet the aggregation from Logan
this afternoon on Cummings field In
no game will the difference of weight
of the two teams enter as such an I'M
portant factor as in the one which
occurs today. The rain and snow which
fell yesterday morning have trans
formed the gridiron into one big mud
puddle, and though the day be pleasant
for the spectator it will not be the
most enjoyable one for the player. Ow-
ing TO tho condition of the field, very
few of the many trick and openheld
plays, which Maddox always uses on
n solid field, viii be possible. The
contest will resolve itself into n battle
of weight more than of science. AS
the Logan team outweighs the Univer
sity over twenty pounds to the man,
the advantage which IT will possess and
hold throughout the entire game will
be great,
have the members of the Varsity squad
been in such excellent physical condi-
ton as they are today, Practically
none are suffering from injuries sus-
tanned in the forepart of the season.
The line men have worked hard and
unItedly throughout the past two weeks.
With Palm in position at right guard,
the line will be uniformly strong, but
lacking in weight. VarIey at center
will with his light weight be up against
the heaviest part of Logan S line. Eva
Barton Mt left guard is the heaviest
man on the local team, He alone will
compare favorably in weight with his

stop the heavy plays which will come

and Sutherland will both be used at

excellent condition. At pnting and
place kicking he still shows his excel
lent form.
This game will be the last in which
Bennion, Pitt, Varley, McKenna and
Brown will play. They intend TO finish
in a blaze of glory.
The outcome of today's contest ap-
pears more and more uncertain as the
time for the contest draws near. Coach

ternoon with n squad of twenty-five

Section 10 Of the constitution OF

she fact of fighting q duel disquali-
fies.
Sections II and Is, article four of
the constitution of 1869, said that mo

convicted etc., should be- eligible to

same article said mo person liable
for public moneys unaccounted for
shall be eligible to seat in either
house of the legislature, or to any Of

have accounted for and paid all sums
for which he may have been liable. !"
This section, like section 10 Of the
present constitution, said nothing
about conviction-did not require con-
viction to disqualify. In the case of
Brady vs. Howe, so Miss, pages 624

this state, in answer to the contention
that the fact Of liability for public
moneys must be judicially asoertained,
said it was nos so, but that this Sec

Maudlin Sentiment.

Not long ago Andrew D. White,

instrumental in turning loose a good

marks he said:
Ia the next year 5000 people will
be murdered. AS stand here today
I tell you that 5000 are doomed to
death with all the cruelty of the
criminal heart, and with no regard
for home and families, and two-thirds

In 1896 and 1900. J. s. McNeily, Of
the Vicksburg Herald, refused to sup
port the democratic ticket after Bryan
was nominated; as that paper said it
"repudiated'' the ticket. But that
paper and its editor has more influence
with this administration than any
man who loyalty supported the demo-
cratic ticket; and they do say that the
effort to have state historian, at

in order to pension J. s. McNeily.

What a shame! After Governor
Vardaman refused to consider the ap.
plication of Judge Enochs, who is the
choice of the people and has more
endorsements than any other appli-
cant, he was troubled because there
were two lawyers in the district
whom he wanted to reward with
judgeships in return for their votes
in the election, so he goes to work to
gerrymander the district, and put two
lawyers in different districts. To do
this he wants to put Rankin in dis

The present representation, ana the
figures to which he proposes 70 reduce
them, are thus given:
Alabama, to 5.
Arkansas, to 5.
Florida, 3 to 2,
Georgia, II to 8.
Louisiana, TO 8

North Carolina, 10 to 6
South Carolina, Z to 8.
Tennessee, 10 to g..
Texas, 6to 10.

Mr.. Keifer's contention IL that
under the Fourteenth Amendment to
the Federal Constitution, whenever
any reduction through disfranchise-
ment is made in thes voting power Of
state. q corresponding reduction
shall be made in the representation Of
such state in the house of representa-.
tives IN congress.
The answer to Mr. Kelfer has long
ago been made IN the fact that the en-
forcement of the aforesaid require
ment was found to be so complicated
as to it's determination and in the
ascertainment of the amount Of re-
duction required that it was super
seeded by the adoption Of the Fiji
teenth amendment, which forbids
any Acknowledgement Of the negroes
on account of race, color or previous
condition of servitu 1e, and requires
Congress t. prevent such disfranchise.
ment.
The remedy is, therefore, not under
the Fourteenth, but under the Fiji
teenth Amendment, and the first step
would be to find out if any law had
been PASSED by a state discriminating
against negroes AS to their right OF
suffrage in the particulars specially
forbidden. The cause would be tried
in the supreme court Of the United
States, and if any such law were
found contrary to the provisions of
the constitution, it would be held by
the court to be null and void, and the
question would be settled.
Thus 1t is that Mr. Kcifer, who 10
extremely corpulent, is everlasting
himself unnecessarily by worring over
an obsolete issue. He is evidently
receiving no aid and comfort from
