lst Mr. Lubeigt, who will be assisted

The retirement from active business 0.
George Muller in Bay St. Louis is noteG
with dttegn dte9gfns Ef$sf'sett f$fsett By one and ali. Mr.
Muller moved to Bay ST. Louis from
New Orleans in 1889, and from a small
beginning built up a flourishing and
substantial business, and ever since his
advent to this city has been identified
with every interest calculated to rebound
to the welfare Of the city. While Mr..
Muller has parted with his business in
terest, he will continue his real estate
ownership, convinced Of their present
high values and the splendid future in
store for Bay ST. Louis and the entire
Mississippi Gulf Coast. His reason for
selling was owing to ill-health, and for
the coming season he viii refrain from
any business whatever, resting at the
family residence in Front street.
The Echo had the pleasure last week
of announcing the candidacy for third
term OF Congressman E. J. Bowers, Of
Hancock County, which announcement
will be found in its proper place in this
issue. Congressman Bowers record
has been a splendid one-withOut par
allel, and he has frequently been alluded
to as the Congressman who does
Noman has ever accomplished
so much for this district as Mr.. Bowers,
and when he is congratulated and com
plimented upon the splendid work, he
tells you in all earnestnoss and sincerity
that half hasn't been told of yet; that
he has much in view and is determined
to get all that he has asked and intends
asking for. His colleagues have ac-
cused him of wanting too much for his
people, and this, in our mind, consG- |
rutes about the best compliment that |
could be paid. Mr.. Bowers will be re-
turned to Congress and allowed to con-
.inue the series of Federal improve
nents due this fast growing and re
narkable section OF the country.
