wORH FOR VARDAMAN.

Let Governor Vardaman, or Mis-
sissippi. call out the militia and
march at once upon ii rebel Gener-
al George II. Helm, commanding the
second Mississ p1' div sion, United
Confederate Veterans. and a wealthy
planter and lifelong Democrat to
boot. Right under the august
Vardaman nose, so to speak. IS Gen
eral Helm fomenting treason and re-
bellion and unless he is quickly sup
messed. he may seize the sovereign
state Of Mississippi by the scruff of
the neck and the slack of TIE breeches
and yank it right out of the solid
South into the camp of the enemy.
General Helm has issued an open
letter in which he strongly advocates
the election of Pres dent Roosevelt
for a third term. The dispatch Civ
ing this Mississippi sensation to the
public says:
General Helm valves the ques-
ton of republication aside as too
triv al for discussion. and urges that
party lines be dropped in order that
TIE business interests OF tie South
may be benefited By the retention Of
Mr.. Roosevelt N, Office, the chief rea-
son. he urges. being the construction
of the deep water eSanneI from the
.akes to the gulf. Inta lengthy dis
cussion of the subject, General Helm
makes a dramatic appeal TO the voters
Of the South to send this message TO
the voters of the North,
I'VE assure YOU from tee bottom
Of our hearts OF our great Confidence
IN the ability, honesty andsintegr t.
of Theodore Roosevelt. and &iu help
you elect him in 1908. His first oc-
cupancy of the presidential chair was
by accident, depiored by none more
than himself. and he pledged him
self for the balance OF the term i
carry out the Mckinley policies. and
he did. Who can say that the man who
has acquired worldwide fame in the
paths of peace cannot be trasted
longer in his own household. and that
&c should not be given two terms
within which to work out his own
poIicies?'
General Helm declares that the
of Roosevelt have made |
Democratic success impossible, and
that as matter of eXpediency the
Democratic party should unite In
him president, rather than
trust the cOuntry's interest in the
lands of a man of unknown quail |
ties

for forty years Let's cut It out at least a. Gar as Ms
sissippi is concerned.
Let the reader understand that there is not the eas
feeling OF antagonsm. prejudice personal Eavorsm
terained BY the writer Of this article for or against either
OF the applicants for the senatorshp in Mississippi On
the contrary. one gentleman is held in as high esteem
personally as the other The question is What is the
best for Mississippi?
Can Mississippi afford lay aside all other interests u
the state for the glory Of sending to Washington
reenfcrce Ben Tman and Jee Davis in the spectacular
amusement OF stirring the animals II So though it
may be costly that is privilege Mississippi has right
to indulge
| lake Tor instance, the speeches made BY Governor
Vardaman: What does he promise the people Of the
state in for the votes he asks to elect him to this
important saon2 True. he mentions the railroads. grows
eloquent in his euoGy Of Mississippi manhood and pro-
nounces the ladies' Of this state the (ares earth Any
honest must do this True, he is an eocutonst Of
rare attainments, reces poetry like Byron, and
acts Tor he would have been second Booth the stage
in Hamlet But what questions OF national Importance,
and issue does he elucidate What does he offer as
an inducement for Mississippi to honor him with the
atorshp?
Every fair minded man who has heard Governor Varda-
in this campaign admit that far as enlgh
ment along the lines in which the public always expects
new thought ideas, suggestions his speeches
have been and source Of much disappointment to his
most ardent supporters The natural conclusion must be
to everyone who patiently listens to him, that Governor
Vardaman in asking for this senatorial toga has launched
fra craft in turbulent waters where only the staunchest
vessel could hope to stem the storm.
Them take the speeches. the congressional record the
culture, the learned mind in governmental affairs, on
economical questions, his ripe knowledge in everything
expects in and demands Of statesman and how do
find John Sharp Williams the other gentleman stand
ing candidate for this high Office?

During his sixteen years as the foremost representative
Of the South in the national congress- Mr. Williams has
stood as pillar of strength as beacon light upon the
tower of national and international intelligence and wisdom
He has been the pride and honor Of the South Perhaps
not always in accord with all the SouI partisan ques-

No dscouesy offensive attitude is offered him.
Would such gentleman United States senator be able

Returning to the question as affecting the business
