two ago by the fact that the train on
which they travelled from Webster
Springs to Holly Junction had aboard
eight Federal prisoners. The prison
ers were friends and partners in
crime of the mountaineers in Central
West Virginia, and to avenge them
selves upon Judge Dayton for giving
severe sentences the mountaineers
threatened to blow up the train on
the Holly River and Addison Rail-
road, which carried the party. The
road management learned Of the plot
and stationed 100 guards along the
way, though the numerous high tres
ties could not be watched closely
enough to prevent an awful catastrophe
had the mountaineers not learned
that their friends were on board the
train. Judge Dayton and Marshal
Tyree knew of the threats, but the
other passengers were not notified.

garding the trip, as regards the cotton

Shreveport to Dallas were white with
the open staple, the trouble there, as
here, being to get sufficient pickers,
although one dollar per hundred was

Magee too much can not be said, a
fireman to the manor born, he is ever
on the lookout for the welfare of his
men, and Improvement of the service.
AS host, he is without a superior, as
the many visiting chiefs will testify.

CITY GETS NEW
LOCAL TRAIN
FIGHT BETWEEN CITY AND
SOUTHERN SETTLED
Mississippi Railroad Commission
Orders Local Train Put on Be-
tween Winona and Greenville
Conditions Relieved

The fight that has been coming on
the Southern Railway for the past
several years was brought to an end
last Tuesday by the Railroad COM
mission ordering local train put
on between Winona and this city.
Our citizens are all familiar with
the claims of Greenville and the pa
thence exercised with the road IN the
hope that this local train would be
put on without the unpleasant duty
OF appearing before the Commissioners
and making a decided demand for
it.
At the meeting Tuesday the city
was represented by a committee of
the Business Mems League, headed
by Mr.. 7. c. Holmes, President of the
League The other members of the
committee were Messrs. VIM. Ray
Toombs, NJ A. Robertshaw and Chas.
Halter
The city of Greenwood, thinking
that the settlement in our favor might
| interfere with her intedests, had Mr..
u. ~. Wade on hand to watch mat
tiers, the railroad people being repre-
sented by Mr.. Foracher.
Our committee contended that
while the schedules were all right,
the trains were run in such a manner
as to make them no account, being
| from two to three hours late every
daythis year but with two or three
exceptions, and instead of being a
benefit were a disadvantage. The
| committee asked that a local train be
put on from Winona, SO that the peo-
come to the city and do their trad
ing and return at some certain time
The railroad people contended that
an extra train would not pay, but
were met with the answer that the
traffic on the trains now running was
so heavy that they could not do the
work, making another absolutely ne
| cessary The lntimat1On had gone
out that the rallrOdd WOulu dllelllp
to have the through train running
from Birmingham to this city stopped
at Winona in the event the extra
train was orderen on, and the peopl'
of Greenwood sent a representative te
combat this proposition.
After listening to both sides Of the
Nquestion and the representatives o
all interests. the Commission ordered
that the extra be put on by the 2Sth
and our committee came home happ:
believing that with the increased
passenger service afforded by the new
local we will not only regain the trad
we have lost, but a big increase oil
top of it.

THE POLITICAL CROP

The county's political pot has begun
to simmer and dame rumor is now
stirring it quite briskly A short crop
or a bad year will, no doubt, cause
many good men to sacrifice personal
interest and business by getting into
the county's political pot for one or
the other offices that only good men
are expected to fill.
Hon. J. L. Hebron will, no doubt,
be placed in the pot for Senator by
the people, as his return othe Senate
is already asked by both press ana
people.
The other senatorship, whose du
ties were ably discharged by Capt.
w. w Stone, will this year go to
Sunf1ower County, but several have
already suggested Capt. Stone taking
the place of Hon. E. n. Thomas as
Representative.
For Representative, Hon. Van B.
Boddie will again make the race and
if successful, will secure the passage
Vi MS bill to put future gambling out
OF business in the State
Mr.. Jim Anderson's name has also
toned for Representative, is d. ]. L.
Atterbury, who once represented the
county in the State Legislature.
We have not heard DR.. Atterbury
express himself on running, but
should he so decide, will prove a
strong man for an opponent to defeat.
Mr. Jno Anderson's name has also
been proposed as probable candidate
and his winning ways and warm hand
shake will draw to him many a vote.
Attorney Mortimer, of Belzoni, has
also been stirred to the top but he, we
understand, will not get in this race
but will make the fight against Messrs.
Sam Montgomery and Joe Jayne for
the office of District Attorney.
For the office of Sheriff there is
the name of only one man heard and
that is Mr.. Harvey Miller, who made
| the race against our present capable
Sheriff. Mr.. Jno. Crouch.
For Treasurer, dame rumor is stir
ring them up from everywhere, and
today the names OF four of the coun-
tvs prominent citizens are mentioned
/ for the place, among them are Mr.
| Toe Robb. former treasurer, whose
record as an officer was the best: Mr.
| Brandon gentleman of honor ano
| ability. who lives in Greenville; Mr.
Ed Klingman. another good man ant
who has a following in every part 0
the county. and Mr.. Coleman, mem
Der of the County Board OF Super
visors
This will, no doubt, be one of th
hotly contested places in the comin'
political fight
1 For the office OF Chancery Cler'
there IS only one man whose name W
have heard spoken OF for the place
and that is w w Miller, the compe
tent and popular deputy OF Mr. HOOD
