A CARD.

To my friends VINO so loyalty
stood by me in the contest for the
Sheriffalty at the primary Aug H.:
| wish to return my sincere and
heartfelt thanks, and to assure them
that my Claims for success previous
to the election was based on just
and logical grounds, and | believe
were thwarted by causes arising
from conflicting personal preference
for State candidates; and to say TO
them that my defeat was regretted
by me IS much on their account as
my own. But the sting of defeat
lost much Of its poignancy in the
knowledge that l possessed their un-
faltering confidence and disinterest-
ed friendship. The remembrance
of their efforts in my behalf will
ever be a green spot, an oasis in the
burning sands of the political des-
ert. In the future I shall vote as
my conscience dictates, and l will
ask them to exercise the same God
given privilege.
Sincerely,

The Memphis s. Pensacola Rail-
road.

/ The event for which Aberdeenians
should be proudest, was the practi-
cally unanimous vote cast author
izing the issuance of $500 of
municipal bonds in aid of the Mem
phis and Pensacola railroad. CO.
lumbus, with something nearer una
nimity, on the same day declared
/ for a like issue of $50, 10000, while
the little village of Pickensville,
Alabama, a few miles further down
the Tom bigbee valley, added its
mite in the shape Of 81, 500. These
cordial expressions of the people
within the scope Of territory in
volved, disclose the popularity of
the postponed enterprise and afford
assurance of their jealous support
until the work is completed; while
on the other hand, their action has
secured the permanent location Of
the main line without doubt or fear
of removal to rivals or neigh bors
who yearned for opportunity to
capture it. The aim and object is
to complete the link between Aber-
deem and Pickensville without delay,
and by the time that is effected and
probably before, the work of ex-
tension of both ends may be under
way.
President Reynolds is entitled to
hearty congratulations from the
three interested points, for the sue
cessful manner in which he resur-
rected an enterprise that was wrapt
in a Van Wrinkle sleep, and put life
and vitality into it that promises
early fruition and a blessing to
thousands who have been cut off
from railroad communication with
the outside world.
The Peoples Oil Mill and Ferti-
izer Works will today let contract
for the machinery required for the
ginning plant, and on Monday or
Tuesday contracts will be let for the
necessary buildings. The plant will
be in perfect readiness for business
at the opening of the season.

ager w. c. Nixon, of the Frisco,
ran down a few hours from Memphis
where he had important engage
ments. President H E Reynolds
of the Memphis & Pensacola, and
Hon. B. H Mcfarland gave him a
drive over town and he expressed
great pleasure at the prosperous ap-
pearance of the city, and was de-
lighted with our splendid artesian
water. Mr.. Nixon delivered in
structiOns for a new dressing of
paint for the Frisco depot and i'm
provements on the line between here
and Amory. 1t was due to him as
much as to any other cause that we
enjoy the excellent passenger sched-
ule now in force on the Frisco,
great convenience to the travelling
public, though, as we understand,
as yet an actual expense to the road.
