SiSSippi.

Your special attention is called to
Section 20, book of Information, Rules
etc, in regard to cutting off water

be strictly adhered To and rigidly en-
forced. If you have not copy of the

the Water and Light Committee to
keep the books and collect all the
bills due the Water and Light Plant.
He is further employed as City En-
gineer to assist in grading the streets
and doing other City engineering.
The neglect of consumers to prompt
" settle their Water and Light bills,
consumes so much of his time that
the Water and Light Committee have
deemed At necessary in all eases To
strictly enforce the rules in regard to
prompt payment of all bills. due the
Water and Electric Light Plant.
Remember that if you neglect To
settle your bill by the 10th of the
month, you are not to be surprised if
you find that you are short of water
or light. In case the City has to turn
the water and light off, you will have
to pay all bills due and in addition
the fee of S1.00 for turning water on
again in the case of water and in the
same in the case of lights.
Yonr bill is due at the Office of Mr..
V. Nj. Murphy, before the 10th of the
month. He has his office at present at
j. l.. Shell 4 Co.'S drug store.
Respectfully.

Road Building.

DIR. II. +. Broyles has received a
40 horse power traction engine and is
operating il successfully in road
building in the second district.
This machine has the power of
more than 30 mules and draws two
road machines with ease. The work
done with il, 80 far, forecasts that a
new era in road building is about to
be inaugurated and that the good
roads so long desired, promise To he
realized. DIR. Broyles purchased the
engine for an experimental test, they
never having been used in road build
ing before. He announces 6hat the
machine has surpassed his expecta-
tons, and that he believes it will rev.
olutionize road making everywhere.
He purposes having the machine
on exhibition at the iron bridge across
the Bigbee river, on the Aberdeen
and Columbus road, next Wednesday,
where all who desire may see it.

1t will be just as well for all
candidates for Governor To be honest
with the people, and tell them frank
ly that if they are elected they are
going to appoint their friends to the
offices at their disposal. This will
be fair and no more than will be
expected. There is no use in saying
no promises have been made, and
that iii the event of success. appoint
ments will be made regardless OF
whether applicants were supporters
of the successful candidate or not.
No one with sense enough to cast
an intelligent ballot will believe any
such rot. Nothing will be lost 10y
dealing fair and square with the
voters. A man who would not re-
ward his friends in preference of his
enemies-where fitness of the appli-
cants is equals not fit to be Gov
ernor. '---Iazoo Herald.

The sundry civil appropriation bill
which has just been completed and
reported TO the House by the appro-
priations committee, is the largest
ever submitted, carrying more than
$94 900, 900. S25, 600, 900 of this is for
work on the Panama canal. The
United States Congress is taking les
sons from the Mississippi Legislature
in the matter of spending money, the
chief difference being that Uncle
Sam has the money to spend, and
Mississippi is in the market for loans
aggregating $4,000
The time was when Mississippi was
cursed with just such gatherings As is
now assembled at Nashville; when
her State officers were nominated by
the trickery and chicanery of conven-
ton methods and the choice of the
mass of the people was set at naught.
Reference is had to the Tennessee
State convention, now in session at
Nashville, in which il is sought To
nominate governor and other State
officials on the Democratic ticket.
This convention has been in session
since Tuesday, and the pandemonium
that has reigned resembles more the
wild orgies of untutored savages than
the deliberations of a civilized people.
But such have always been the pro-
ceedings of conventions where fac
81. A.
politicians have sought to advance
their own interests. The scenes that
have been enacted in the convention
are enough to surfeit the people of
Tennessee and cause them to repu-
date such ways of choosing their Of
ficers, and resort to the primary cleo
ton method as Mississippi has done.

The people of almost every county
of the State are aroused To the inn
portance of improving the public
roads. A number of counties have
adopted the contract system, and
where this method has been in vogue
long enough, the public highways
have undergone marked Improvement.
Results are not noticeable to any
great extent during the first year or
two, but where the roads have been
worked in this way, the third year
has put them in reasonably good con-
dition. One of the principal draw
backs to working the roads by this
system has been lack of funds. How
ever, this obstacle will be overcome
AS the economy, worth and impor-
lance of good thoroughfares takes
hold of all classes of population. The
value to agriculture, commercial, So
cial, educational and all other inter
ests of the country becomes more APP
parent as the roads become better,
and, exactly in the proportion as all
these interests are affected, the money
will be provided To build them.

One of the strong utterance in
Hon. Earle Brewers platform for
governor is as follows:
Grafters and thieves should not
be tolerated in the service of the
state, except as convicts in the pen
itentiary. Legislative investigation
and the firing of paper wads will
accomplish little reform in this line,
but terms in the penitentiary for
thieves in high places will accom-
plish much -

They are slowly but surely passing

He cannot come to you, bnt you can,
