Get Back to Business.

The first primary of Mississippi
1907 election is over. Many candi-
dates have been elected or defeated as
the result of the battle of ballots
which is now past history. Missis-
sippi ranks high among the states Of
the union in intelligence, patriotism
and honor. It's sovereign people have
always chosen wisely and though your
candidate may have been defeated tbs
the kingly voice of fair Mississippi s
sons that thus deoreed, and let each
and all abide by the decision of our
only monarch, the majority OF our
sovereign citizens. Each and every
voter has expressed his own ideas, nm
trampled by corporate greed, financial
power or political influence. And
now let's all get back to business
again, forgetting any unpleasantness
that may have arisen; realizing that
we are all members of great brother
hood of Mississippians, and the ma

Influence of Happy Childhood.

The memory of early happiness is
treasure-house of sweet comforts. Its
pure, simple, earnest joys become wells to
draw from whenever we sit down in thirst
and WEAKNESS by the dusty highway of
life. Of this one good the world can
never defraud us. The sunshine in those
days reaches across our little stretch of
life, and mingles its rays with those that
beam from the heaven of our hope. The
actual present of the adult life, and the
materials which enter into it, are made up,
more than we generally suppose, of remin-
iscence. We ruminate like the kline.
We lay up in the receptacles of memory
abundance of undigested material that we
recall and appropriate to our refreshment
and nourishment; and this process of
Renaissance, Of living over again, grows
upon US as we grow into years, until at
last it becomes our all. Exhausted power
has no resource but to dwell upon its old
play and its old achievements. How sad
ne IS who can never go back to his child
hood without shudder. Who can never
recall period when his life was filled
with sweet and simple satisfaction. When
a kind and loving mother read aloud to
the family the Home Circle department

A Creditable Fight.

The campaign, just closed, in the
county, brings to the front a choice
of officers, so far as determined, as
will be credltable to the CONSTITUENT
cies that chose them. But it should
be borne in mind that the defeated
aspirants are entitled to consideration
for the splendid fight that they made.
Every one of them, in their canvass
and candidature, grew closer to the
people Of the town and county and
afforded predicate for future en-
deavor in the same behalf. A few
have won the election on the first
primary; others must fight it out in
another battle of the ballots; and nc
matter who may be chosen, he will
possess credentials that may not be
questioned by anybody.
1t is gratifying to know that the
county contest has been conducted on
high lines. and that there is no re-
proach attaching to sthe methods by
which those that ares. successful have
won. 1t has been fair battle of the
ballots, and the defeated have moth

Card From T. u. SissOn.

Winona, Miss, Aug 6, 1907. THE

Hon. T. U. Sisson this m orning:
To my twenty. one thousand loyal
friends who stood by me in my race
for governor, extend, through this
medium, my heartfelt and grateful
thanks. They made good fight, and
in my defeat I have no regret so great
as that l am conscious that my friends
must share it with me. 1t was not
their fault that | did not win, but
my own. If had done as we'll as
my friends we would have won this
race. To them I owe a debt of graft
tude that can never pay. Their
support was without money and with.
out price. / made no promise of any
office. purchased no newspapers
l hired no emissary to travel and
work for me. I slandered no oppon.
ent. We made clean fight and de-
livered no blow below the belt.
To those of my fellow citizens who
voted against me have no word OF
censure or criticism. In the exercise
of their sovereign choice they have
acted perhaps wisely. We all trust
SO. Let Us all hope that of the two
distinguished Mississippians left in
the second primary that the choice of
our people between the two may be
wise, and whichever of the two is
elected that it may rebound to the
honor, glory and welfare of our great
and growing state.

by the conflict, and all 'rut our

Increase in Newspaper Expense.

The New Decatur Advertiser has
increased the price of it's subscription
to 81, 80 a year, rs cents for six months
and 30 cents for three months. In ex-
planning the reason for the increase in
the price Of subscription, the Adver-
tiser says that it is because of the
advance In white paper and the in
creased cost of labor. In the last
eighteen months we have raised the
salaries of our employees three times, =
says. the Advertiser, land the type
trust and tire paper trust have each
clipped little coupon off the bonded
profits of the publishing business.
AS the cost of every other commod-
ity has gone up tout of sight," there
is no reason why the weekly papers
should not raise the price of their
subscriptions to keep pace with the
cost of labor, and the white paper
in plain words to keep apace with the
cost of issuing them. The dailies
have not increased the price of SUBJ
scription, but they have very generally
increased the price of advertising
space. This has been a necessity.
The cost of publishing newspapers
has increased 80 per cent within the

History of Legislation Fixing the
State CAPITOL at Jackson.

Editor of The Clarion Ledger
Here is piece of history which is
known to few:
The constitution of 1882 fixed the
seat of government of Mississippi at
Jackson, in Kinds county, until 1850,
with power in the legislature at its
session in that year to fix permanently,
failing in which it was to remain at
Jackson.
AS no change was made by the
legislature, Jackson remained the seat
of government by virtue of the con-
stitution Of 1882.
The constitution of 1869 repealed
and annulled that of 1882 and contain
ed no provision for the seat of govern
ment.. The result was that the state
had no legally designated seat of gov
eminent until section of the code of
1880 declared Jackson the seat Of
government, and it was in the power
of the legislature at any session to
change it.
When the constitution of 1890 had
taken shape and was about to be voted
on. read it and seeing no provision
for a seat of government, / accosted
Hon. r. FL. Thompson on his way to
the convention, then in session, and
explained to HIM the situation as to
the capitol and he at once agreed that
the constitution should fix the seat of
government and not leave it subject
to the disposal of the Legislature, and
entering the hall where the conven-
ton was in session, he asked and OBJ
tanned consent to add section 101 to
the draft of the constitution as it now
appears.
Perhaps I was the only person in
the sstate whose attention had been
directed to legislation on the seat Of
government, resulting from my con-
nection with code making.
