SCOTT'S PROSPECTS Oko"o
BRIGHTER.

Nearly all the candidates for Cover
nor disappeared from view after their
announcements except the Hon. Chas.
Scott, whose political star grows more
resplendent every day. His entire time
is taken up in responding to invitations
to address colleges. schools and other
nublic gatherings, and he cannot accept
half the invitations received. Every
where he is being received by enthusias-
tic and loval audiences, and substantial
men from all over the State are volun-
teering their support to him for Cover
nor.
Aside from his magnetic personality
and splendid character, there are othet
reasons for the great popularity OF Mr.
Scott. Chief among these is that the
people know him. He bas been tired Ill
the severest tsts to which mortal man
corld he subjected. and has emerged
every time triumphant and splendid
The people know this, and III view OF the
great grating schemes unearthed all
over the country, they do not propose
to take chances. While many OF Nlr'
Scott's opponents are men OF splend'o
character, they are young. Ihey nave
,,o+ been tried in the crucibles that forge
strong men. AS consequence inte''',
gent men everywhere are rally'ng aro""o
the standard Of Mr.. Scott, and every
dav his prospects become more 'hV'''c'-

WHY HUMPHREYES WILL BE
REELECTED.

Looking at II IIOn d puiSly SCI
fish stondpoint can the people of
this Congressional District afford
to withhold from Congressman
Humphreys their endorsement in
the coming primary.
To defeat him now would in eft
feet be saying to his successor:
We notify yon to advance that IT
you pursue the same course Ben
Humphreys has pursued, we are
going to turn you out at the flrst
opportunity"
Before we say that let us see
few things Ben has done.
The first thing he did was to
overturn all precedent, and in the
face of tremendous opposition, get
a place on the Rivers and Harbors
committee in his first term.
As a result of this committee as
signment he has been able to do
very much for the state and partlc-
ularly for this district, for instance:
Since then Congress has appro-
priated seven million dollars tor
levees and improvement of the Mis-
sissippi River.
The appropriation for the Yazoo
and it's tributaries has been increas-
ed from ffty-fve thousand dollars
annually to one hundred and tive
thousand dollars.
He has secured a survey OF the
Sunhower River and favorable re-
port has been made by the eng1-
neers, which will give good navl-
CATION in that river from its mouth
to Hushpuckena.
He has secured an appropriation
for the Coldwater, which will give
steamboat navigation as high as
Marks.
He got an inspector from the
Postoffice Department and went
with him last summer all over
Holmes county and put in a Rural
Free Delivery Route on every pub
lie road in that county.
He secured a survey of the Black
Bayou District by the Federal au-
thorities, and at Uncle Sans eX
pense, which will reclaim more
than hundred thousand
acres of land in this county; and
last, but not least, he secured an
appropriation of sixty thousand dol
lars for public building in Green
vile.
In addition to these things he
secured, after very hard hght'
the passage of the Humphreys
bill, which will do more than all
other laws to put the Blind Tigers
out of business, and-but why say
more? If you don't like this you
wouldn't like the rest OF it,

CHAS. SCOTT The FAVORITE.
OUR CHOICE FOR GOVERNOR.

OUR CHOICE FOR GOVERNOR.
The Sentinel is for Hon. Charles Scott
for Governor.
This position has been taken after
careful consideration of the claims aud
qualifications of all the aspirants, and
whatever influence and the Sentinel may
have will be given in behalf OF Mr. Scott,
All of the candidates have announced
the platforms upon which they will
make the race, and after careful exam
nation of these, and Of the character
and record of each, we believe Mr.. Scott,
viewed from every standpoint, will best
serve the interests of the State as its
chief executive.
AS a lawyer. he has reached COM
mauding position in a State noted for
its able and brilliant bar; as planter
and man of affairs he has achieved Sue
cess which few men attain at his time
OF life, with nothing but his own energy,
ability and indomitable will to back
him. Starting i'll life as all orphan at
the age of fifteen, he has made his way
in the world, educated himself, and at
the same time was the support OF his
mother. And during busy life, he has
found time to astist many struggling
young men to their feet and put them i'll
a way to carve out successful careers for
themselves.
That he is emine1ltly fitted by nature,
education and training for the position
he seeks, no one who knows him will for
a moment gansay. A Agentlman Of lofty
character, he has no axe to grind" i'll
seeking the office OF Governor, as he will
undoubtedly have to make personal
sacrifices of his business interests to ac-
cept the place. And he announces Ill
his platform that he has no Senatorial
aspirations to gratity at the expiration
of his term as Governor, but only laud-
able ambition to occupy the position OF
chief executive OF his native State.
From tine to time, as the campaign
progresses, the Sentinel will discuss
the issues as they arise, and while we
shall give hearty support to the gentle
man of our choice, we will indulge III no
vituperation or personal attacks Oh
other worthy aspirants for the Cover
norship. Among the several candidates
for this exalted position are some of the
States ablest and purest men, and
each is entitled to a hearing, with
out prejudice. The Sentinel will not
undertake to build upon the dement's OF
his worthy opponents, but will rather
endeavor to convince it's readers that
Mr.. Scott has all those. requisites lleces-
sary to make an ideal Governor. re-
pardless of the claims OF any other
man.-Yazoo Sentinel.

A LETTER TO VOTERS.
A FrIdnd Writes Nice Things About Mr..
Aaron +. GOza.


announcement of A. +. Goza for
the Office of Chancery Clerk at our
next election. As one who has
had the pleasure of lifetime ac-
quaintance with this gentleman l
thought words about his life and
character to the voters of Bolivar
county, who do not know the man
might not be miss,
Aaron Goza was born in this
county about 43 years ago. At
the tender age of four he lost within
one month both mother and father
and was left homeless and penny
less. A ministering angel came in
the sweet parsonage of my old
friend Mrs. J. E. Brander, who
adopted and reared him to honor
able manhood
His life has been spent OH the
farm with the exception of two
years as Postmaster at Gunnison,
and two years as Deputy Sheriff at
Rosedale. Possessing only limited
means he was denied a college ed
ucation, through public schools and
few months at business college
he has attained fairly good edu-
cation aud would perform the du-
ties of Chancery clerk with credit.
At an early age he associated
himself with the Methodist church
of which he is at present an ardent
member and supporter, always
standing for the moral side OF every
question involving good citizen
ship. He is Mason, a K. P. and
P. of H.
Where Aaron Goza is known his
name is a synonym of honor, his
every act being one of duty, homes
ty and integrity. He is of sunny
genial disposition, kind, impulsive
and generous to a fault, as brave
as lion, yet as gentle and as ten
der as a woman. A devoted low,
ing husband and an affectlonate
father, true and loyal to his friends
and equally as frank fair to an
enemy. As citizen, he repres ents
every virtue in life that is pure
good and noble and if honored by
an election to the Chancery Clerk
office, he will prove as trustwort ny
and courteous as public servant
as he has made a private citizen.
Politically, he has always beer
found in the ranks of Democracy
fighting the battles of his party
and friends, though never before
has he offered for public office. -
He is not blessed with an over abun
dance of worldly goods, but is ricl
only in the possession of a lovely
wife and four bright little boys
No man can make a mistake II
voting for Aaron Goza for Chancery

BASE BALL OF THE WEEK

Rosedale dropped the double
header at Cleveland Wednesday,
From the report received i'll this
CITY, there were numerous reasons
for the downfall of Our team. Since
Charley Allen has been out of the
game with game finger our boys
have not had a regular Gather be-
hind the bat and have been conf
PEELED to play men in that import
ant position who were not used to
the big nit. This is big handi-
cap, in itself. Then, too, it SEEM
ed as if the boys had an off day,
making more errors in the two
CIeveland games than they had i'll
all previous games played this sea-
son. Also some of our best play
ers were out of the game and sub
stitutes were forced to take their
places.
The first game was won by Cleve-
land 10 to 3, Sillers pitching for
Rosedale against Burks, the crac k
Ruleville pitcher, and the second
stood 6 to 3 in favor of Cleveland,
Foutain pitching for Rosedale
against Fred Clark for Cleveland.
Our team has made good record
this season, when all the men were
able to play their position, and
when Charley Allen gets able to
don the big.lnit again we hope to
meet both the Friars Point
and Cleveland boys again.
The Roseda1e second nine played
a double header with boy nine
from Greenville Thursday, taking
both games by one sided score
In the first game Richard Shelby
pitched one hit. no run game fol
Rosedale; and in the second game
Leslie Joest and Emmett Gibson
pitched for Rosedale, one run be
ing made off of Gibson.
The second nine-the full team
has not been defeated this season
and is upholding RosedaLe's bas'
ball honor in great style. Every
player on the team played gooe
ball. Hurrah for the second nine
Benoit beat the Greenvllle(sinall
BOYS Friday, by score OF 19 to /
I'D to the seventh inning the game
was a close race, being 2 to /, ol
something like that. After thai
the Benoit boys hit the ball at vii
and won by a large score.
Benoit also took a game from
Beulah the same day, the score be
ing ~ 2toS. In each of these game
some of the Rosedale boys were in
terested; but Beulah and Greenvills
get the defeats marked aga1ns
them.
