Machine Candidates.

1t is fortunate for their candidacy
that the impression has gone out from
Jackson that two of the gentlemen
who desire to become Mississippi's
next governor will represent other
than themselves and their own pol
itics-it being stated that Judge Truly
will represent McLaurinism and Hon
Charles Scott Vardamanism in the
coming contest. The people ought,
and in our opinion will, demand that
the man who will be lected Governor
shall stand for himself and the policy
he deems best and wisest for the
State. Mere politics and the selfish
interest of men and clans will be rel
egated to the rear.-Grenada Sentinel
The above extract represents the
state of feeling entertained by ma
jority, large majority, of the voters
of this State. and was voiced by more
than one paper last week. The effort
originated and promulgated from
Jackson, to have two factional cam
didates and rray behind each a po-
litical faction, will fail. Mere dis
claimer by the candidates themselves
will avail nothing, if part of their
recognized following proceeds to or
ganize for them the faction each rep
resents. Those things amounted to
something in convention days, when
Jackson politics controlled the poll
tics of the State, but under our pri-
mary election law, machine made sup
port will be more than Offset by pop
ular opposition to such methods. The
candidates will not be permitted, nor
their following, to ride two horses on
this proposition The whole matter
will be thoroughly sifted and fully
explained between now and the pri

There is not a bank doing business
but what should have their officers
bonded. 1t does not in any way re-
feet upon the official or the bank, but
increases the security. The value of
this was shown this week in the clos
ing of the Delta Bank of Leland,
where the depositors and stockhold-
ers have $4,000 more assets than they
otherwise would have had by the
bonding of the cashier in bond
company.

If pure food commissioner A.
F. Hit could drop down into our
midst now the furry he would
cause among some of our good
housewives who have been sell
ing butter without having print
ed wrappers on it, would be a.
musing to say the least. Some
seem to think that because they
sell only a little butter they need
not go to the expense of getting
wrappers but the law does not
look at it that way and holds a
person just as liable for selling
one pound unlawfully as a humid
red pounds. Until this law is
either repealed or found to be
unconstitutional every one who
violates it is liable to arrest and
conviction and one who buys I'M
stamped butter is just as apt to
be prosecuted as the one who
sells it. Also the law requires
that on the wrappers the kind of
butter, name and address of
maker and the weight be printed
and wrappers having only the
name of the maker written
or stamped on them are not cor
rect. Rather than go to the ex-
pense of procuring wrappers fol
their butter at a fraction of q
cent each some people prefer tc
go without them and only the
cost of a prosecution will show
them the error of their way.

ing beautifully and whole fields
are covered with it. The farm
ers ofAthat country should labor
hard to kill out the weed and if
necessary summer-fallow their
land every other year to clear it
of the foul growth or in a few
short years it will have taken
the country. Prompt steps
should be taken to check its
spread as it is one of the worst
weeds known to the farmer.
Care should also be exercised to
keep down the thistle crop and
whenever encountered they
should be cut down or pulled out.
The large spiney plant with the
purple bloom is the worst kind
here and several large patches
are to be found along the road
near Denver. These should be
plowed up by the road supervisor
wherever found and the farmers
should be careful to keep them
out of the fields. 1t will not
take much work now to kill them
out but if they once get a good
start they will be a hard thing to
get rid of.

In travelling over the prairie
one can not help but notice the
growth of several plants de-
trimental to the success of any
farming country and principal
among them are the wild must
ard and thistle. This immediate
vicinity is pretty free from both
these plants and we hope to see
it remain so but out in the Red
Rock country and out toward
Lowe the wild mustard is flour
