CHANGES.

Prior to 1898 a man from the
Hill country, East Mississippi,
in the Legislature was looked up
on as not a proper man to be
placed upon committee pertain
ing to waterways and levees by
representatives in the Delta,
though the "Hill Biliies" were
chief owners of that most fertile
section, Gods land, the Nile OF
the Western hemisphere. We
think, if our memory serves US
arlght, that a water Convention
was held in February 1893, at
New Orleans to which Hon. w.
N. Nash was chosen delegate
and the manner in which he treat
ed the subject allayed all appre-
tensions from all quarters and
since that time the most reliable
and loyal supporters are from the
Hill lands for Improvements along
these lines.
General Nash is a native Miss
issippian, borned in Noxubee Co.

Had we more such men in every
State, surely peace and happiness
and prosperity would be the priv
lege of more. Nash will not only
make an ideal Lieutenant Cover
nor. but were he to aspire to
higher positions, though not
more responsible or important
except for the order of classitica-
tion. none more competent or
worthy than Hon. W. n. Nash.
It is most gratifying to him,
no doubt, and we know to his
many friends though out the
State. to observe the favorable
mention of his name for Lieuteant
Governor. We are not surprised,
for no man witein our State is
hotteror more favorably known,
h,,t confess it most pleasant and

JEFF DAVIS.

We nave been scanning over
the speech of Gov. Jeff Davis
delivered at Bentonv1lle, Deem
Der Esd 1905, in joint debate with
Senator James H. Berry.
Jeff Davis is the Arkansas gov
ernor. He has been characteriz-
ed as a demagouge, but we need
such men throughout the nation
and we believe that the good,
honest people of the Common
wealth will satiate his lauadable
ambition by properly placing the
"cap stone,' electiug him United
States Senator. He can only be
Objectionable to the corruption
lists and grafters. We here and
now disclaim reflection upon Sen
ator Berry or any good citizen of
that State who oppose Jeff Davis
and MS TRENDS. we have ALWAYS
been great admirier of Senator
Berry and confess that until with
in the last twelve months we
have been very much prejudiced
against Jeff Davis. His record
against the eXtOrtioners during
the yellow fever epidemic, and
his most successful,fght, most tri-
umphant, against bribe takers
and boOdlers in the State Lngis-
lature, commands the admiration
Of the honest. liberty loving and
patriotic people of the world.
Great is Jeff Davis.

SOME SENSATIONAL DROPS
BEARS RUNNING THINGS IN
WALL STREET.

New York, May Mot since the North
ern Pacific panic of May 9, 1901, has there
been such a spectacular decline in prices
on the stock exchange as there was to-
day. Heavy selling, almost regardless Of
the prices offered, began with the open
ing of the market, and from that time
till near the close the tone generally was
weak There were rallies from time TO
time when the bears bought stocks to
cover the sales they had made at higher
prices when some strong financial inter-
ests sent in buying orders ~ protect
shares in which they were interested, but
each rally, except the last one. just be-
fore O'Clock, was followed by a reSump-
ton of the selling movement. The day 5
trading was extremely heavy. rising to

Less Than 400 Recovered.

Captain Gwinn. from the headquar-
tiers of General Greedy, called at police
headquarters today and asked for po-
lice assistance in the matter of in
vestigating reports relative to the dead
bodies lying in the ruins of the burned
district. The officer called attention to
an interview with Coroner Walsh, in
which that official was quoted as Civ
ing an opinion that the death roll would
reach 800 when those covered by ruins
in the wrecked buildings were uncov-
cred.
Captain Gwinn has been. engaged in
the work of looking I'd the dead for
some days, and he does not believe that
the total will amount to any such num-
Der as the coroner states in his inter-
view. So far the military authorities
have a record of something over $50
dead bodies, and in the opinion of Cap
tain Gwinn 500 will be as many as will
ever be recovered.
