Harrison an Easy Winner is Elected
District Attorney by Large Ma
jnrity.

He carries three out of five coun-
ties. His Marjority is over 800. w,
d. Billiard gets good vote in Jackson
county and Coast Towns.
Last Tuesdays special election for
District Attorney was a quiet affair
throughout the district little interest
being manifested in the election and
a light vote being polled.
The successful aspirant turned out
to be Hon. B. P. Harrison, of Leakes-
vile, who not only carried his home
county, Greene, and adjoining county,
Wayne, almost solidly, but made q
remarka Ole run on the Coast where
his opponents were supposed to have
everything their way He carried
Hancock county and polled a big vote
in Harrison.
jackson county stood by the home
man, Hon. w. D. Billiard, and gave
him splendid vote. Ocean Springs
gave him 76 votes out of the. IS cast.
He carried every important precinct
in the county except Daisy, which
went to Hon. H. II Parker, of Wig
gins.
Mr.. Billiard had clean majority
on the coast but the Harrison vote
in Greene and Wayne overcame his
lead and Harrison proved an easy
winner.
1t is impossible to get the complete
vote OF the District at this time, but
enough is known to place Harrison
on top with a margin of at least 600
votes. Mr. Bullas d is a strong sec
ond and Mr. Parker and Mr. Mize
close together for third and fourth
place.

trepid candidate from our neighbor-
ing and neighborly county, Greene,

mendabe race and who so cminently

There are many, we have been as
sured, who voted for Mr.. Harrison
simply because the News Beacon PIN
ned his name to its masthead early
in the action as its choice, and stood
for him all through, and to these we
are especially grateful, for it conveys
TO us in terms more convincing than
any words that could be uttered,
that the people have confidence in
their home PAPER and are not afraid
to follow where it leads.

him as their trusted sentinel upou

But now that the battle is over
and the victory won let us admon-
ish these friends, who have stood so
true, to be modest in victory by
guarding against giving utterance to
words too harshly spoken, for all
three of the defeated candidates are
politically Of our faith. blood of our
blood and practically our neighbors
and it should be sren to that no re-
mark calculated to wound is made of
them, (they having conducted gentle
manly campaigns), for the sting that
comes of defeat, and the thought of
the time and monev spent furnish
penalty sfficient.
As for the Beacon, it enter
tains nothing but the highest regard
for ali the candidates, along with its
rejoicing over the election of the one

We don believe a word of the al
legation emanating from Jno. T. Sen
ter, of Columbus, that Gov Varda-
man voted Chancellor Fulton S reno
val from the State University for
political reasons. Vardaman should
as well as any other man be credenced
with honest motives when imputed,
and we see easily wherein he was jus
titled in his actions by the very dis
satisfaction he states existed in the
University for the last five years un
der Fultons direction A change
was Indicated and the University got
it. Let Fulton shoulder his just por-
ton of the public censure, This
thing of trying to saddle the blame
for everything that turns up on our
State executive shows a spirit
amongst a class of our politicians
that is extremely disgusting to this
sy,,ita We had nothing to do with
chair, but while there we believe he
should be treated with respectful
fairness.

FATHER OF OUR COUNTRY.

On the End OF February the birth
day of George Washington was cele-
DRAFTED from ocean to ocean. At the
age of sixteen we find him as a sur
veyor on the far side of the Blue
Ridge. In the heart of the savage
Indians country he lived on rude and
scanty fare and slept on a bed Of
branches or pillowed upon his faith
ful horse. He had no opportunity
that is not given to every boy who
reads this department. But we do
not find George Washington smoking
cigaretts or loafng on the street cor
ners. He spent his evenings at home.
His mother was no better than your
mother or mine. Every boy has the
best mother on earth. It is up to
you, young man, whether you will
make George Washington OF your
self or tramp and vagabond.
However his military fame may ex.
cite the wonder of mankind it is
chiefly by his civil magistracy that
Washington S example will instrucs
us all. Great generals have arisen
in all ages of the world, and perhaps
most in those of despotism and dark
ness. In times of violence and con-
vulsion they rise by the force Of the
whirlwind, high enough to ride in it
and direct the storm Like meteors
they glare on the black clouds with
splendor that, while it dazzles aud
terrifies, makes nothing visible but
the darkness. The fame of heroes is.
indeed growing vulgar; they multi
ply in every long war; they stand in
history, and thicker in their ranks
almost as undistingaished as their
own soldiers.
But such 8 chief magistrate as
appears like the pole
star in a clear sky, to direct the
skillfnl statesman His presidency
will ever form an epoch and will be-
known as the age Of Washington.
Like the milky way, it whitens along
it's allotted portion Of the hemisphere.
