the candle out and retires. Last

To the People of Bolivar County:
For the first time i II many years,
l am informed a regular nominee
of the Democratic party is to have
opposition in the November elec-
ton. l regret exceedingly that
this contest has been precipated
upon the people of this county. I
have been nominated as the candi-
date of the Democratic party in
Bolivar county at legal primary
held for the purpose of declaring
tho party will, and as the choice of
that party. I am entitled to and
will receive, I am confident,
the votes of all loyal Democrats, and
l call upon each and every one Of
them to support me as Loyalty as
they expect to support the other
nominees Of the party. In doing
this, l venture to suggest that in
no county in the South should the
bolting Of party nominee be
condemned more than in Bol-
ivar, where the negro popula-
ton is SO dense that at any time 1t
will be easy for them to WELD the
balance Of power in a general elec-
ton. Thus in this contest, there
are considerable number of me-
groes entitled to vote and / am not
called upon to contest with MY op-
ponent before the Democratic vo-
tiers of the county alone, but to
enter a contest, in which the me-
gro vote, If the race is at all close,
may be the determining factor. can
not therefore believe that any large
proportion of the Democrats Of
this county will bolt a part OF
the ticket any more than they
would bolt the entire ticket and
confidently rely upon their sense
of justice and of right to support
the party nominee. Personally,
shall vote for all the nominees Of
the party, no matter however we
may differ upon individual ques-
tions.
l am led to believe that the
fight against me is made, and an
independent is to be run, because
it is alleged that I am in favor Of a
q division of the county. l was as
much in favor of it before the election
as am now, and I did not hesitate
to so express myself. l am not
now, and was not then, in favor of
it, unless a majority of those en-
titled, under our constitution aud
laws, to determine the fact are in
favor of it. If the majority is in
favor of the division into two coun-
ties, then am in favor of it.
The Democratic principle of To-
cal self government and the right
of secession for which the South so
long fought has been engrafted in

AN ADDRESS TO DEMOCRATS.
Nv. H Fitzgerald the Regular Democratic Nominee for Rep.
resentatve, Issues Statement to Voters

to our organic law and the consti.
stution provides that the qualities
voters of the proposed new county
shall alone have a voice in the
matter. 1t is upon the principle
of right and justice that my course
as legislator shall be based.
There are many people in West
Bolivar who favor the division oi
the county and I suggest to the
fairminded citizen of the county
some of the reasons urged III favor
of the division.
LIST. There is in many respects
lack Of community Of interests
between East and West Bolivar,
as evidenced by the fact that West
Bolivar is heartily in faver Of no
fence law and East Bolivar is op-
posed to such law.
End. The members of the Board
of Supervisors, however capable,
as the county is now constituted,
can not afford to devote the time
necessary to famaliarize themselves
with the requirements of the en-
tire districts and therefore are not
in position to pass properly and
understandingly upon the many
! and various questions presenting
to them for their consideration.
3rd.--I believe the reduction in
the emoluinent of the county off,
GERS caused by the division will dc
much to allay the bitterness of fu.
ture political campaings in the ter.
fitory affected.
4th.- We practically have two
counties now except in the election
and spending Of the tax money and
l believe the interest of both sides
will be best served by electing its
own officers and spending its own
money to suit itself and I believe
the cost will not be increased to
either side. and further believe
that this is not only the best in
terest of each side but is eminent
ly just and proper and appeals to
the fairness of all men.
5th--If, as urged in some quar-.
ters, it is selfish in the West Side
to wish to spend its own taxes in
its own way, is it not more selfish
in the East Side to use its majority
of votes to spend not only the tax
es Of the East Side but also large
proportion of the tax Of the West
Side as has been admittedly done
for years pasts For many years
the West Side has had its affairs
managed by Board of Supervisors
from the East Side and it is urged
that this is unfair and unjust. ev-
Ell though the supervisors 50
elected have uniformly been just
and fair men. They simply were
not. and IN the nature of things

THE GREAT VAN AMBURG
SHOWS.

The capacity of the big tents is
always tested during the Van AM
burg Shows engagement, and if
Uncle Henry and Aunt Betsy de-
sire much comfort and more peace
of mind it would best to allow the
children to bring them to the af-
ternoon exhibitions, where the
new menageri can be seen to much
better advantage and more time
given to absorb the descriptive
knowledge so pleasantly unfolded
by the gentemanly lecturers.
The white city is a beautiful
picture on the geen, and thous-
ands of sight-seers will take advan-
tage to inspect this monster mov-
ing carvau. The horse stables
alone are worth visiting to all lov-
ers of the gentle equine. for the
Van Amburg s'horse show" is the
talk of all America; then the pom
les, they should be seen, also the
culinary department where over
six hundred people are served three
times a day. The blacksmith
shops. the electric light plant and
hundred places will be found Of
interest.
Only work Of all absolutely nee
essary character is done on Sun
days. If the weather is fine and
the water is not too cold. the ele-
plants will be given a bath in
large pond near the grounds.
Every one will see the vast inn
provement and enlargement of this,
the best of all the large tented ag-
gregations.
Each department is SO complete
ly filled with foreign and Ameri-
can features as is capable of being
transported and handled in satis-
factory manner.
The new menagerie is a vast
collection OF the earth most inter-
esting and marvellous wonders.
New cages, rolling stock equip
ment, all bright in gold and silver,
will be seen for the first time after
a full winters establishment by
scores OF expert artisans.
Many new and novel acts will at
tract attent OH in the big tent,
where hundreds of skilled perfor-
mers will vie in friendly contests
for supremacy.
The children will be delighted

The entire institution is SO COM
plete in its immensity that only a
generalization can be mentioned
herewith.
Nor has the circus department

and amusing antics lby over two

THE FOREST REUNION.


Probably the most striking fea-
ture of the reunion was the parade
of the veterans in the morning,
which started at 1890 o o'clock and
ended an hour or so later at Forrest
Park. The various commands
lined UP along Court, Madison and
Adams avenues, just off Second
street, falling in line as the head
OF the column made its way north
along Second street to l'oplar ave-
nue.. Cheer after cheer arose from
the crowded sidewalks as the sew
eral hundred veterans and the
magni6ce ntly decorated floats bear
ing the various ladies' memorial
organizations passed by.
Gen. H. A. Tyler, comman der
in-chief of the veterans, was at the
head of the lime, and he was fol-
lowed by an escort of forty gray
haired cavalrymen, who rode with
drawn sabres. Following came the
various divisions, each headed by
its commander, with his personal
staff.
Not all who rode were in uni-
form. The equipment of the ma
jorlty was incomplete. An old
gray tunic here stopped by civil
ian hat: there. a combination Of
military trousers and a swallow
tail coat. But it all added to the
strength of the picture.
Some of the old vets. had an
occasional difficulty with an un-
known mount. Some of them,
nigh on SO eighty years of age, had
a bit of trouble in maintaing an
easy seat. But they all stayed OH.
they all looked proud and many
were the happy greetings and play
full remarks which they passed with
friends sighted upon the sidewalks.
When the patriotic cavalcade
came in sight of the monument in
Forrest Park, the gray.haired
fighters, pulled off their hats. wa
we'd them wildly and broke into q
tremendous cheering. Here was
the most effecting scene of the day
and there were not few wet eyes
among those looking on when the
boys who followed Forrest caught
sight of the EQUESTRIAN statue SC
characterize of their old leader and
involuntarily broke into wild yells.
The ceremony at the monument
was brief. DR.. G. B. Malone was
master here as we'll as over the GER
emonies throughout the rest of the
day. The invocation was given by
the Rev. DR.. A. B. Curry, and he
was followed by the Rev. N. M,
Long, who delivered magnificent
eulogy Upon the life, service and
character of the dead hero. in hon.
or of whom all were assembled.
The benediction was pronounced
by the Rev. G. B. Baskerville and
afterward the veterans dispersed
and made their way to East End
Park, where the barbecue was serv-
ed later in the day and the remain
der of the programme concluded.
A feature of the parade was the
reception accorded Hon. Charles
Scott and his band of brave Mis-
sippians. A genuine ovation all
along the line attested the esteem
in which Mr.. Scott is held by the
neorle If Mem nhis

TYREEL'S TRIBUTE TO
THE SAGE BRUSH STATE.

The following poem was composed
by Mr.. Frank G. Tyrrel, the silver
tongued Los Angeles orator, for the
occasion Of the leave taking of Gold
field by the southern metropolis dele
cation:
In Nevada.
Golden the sunrise that wakens the
world;
Glorious the sunset, it's banners un-
furled;
Rich, the red blood through pulsing
veins hurled,
As if, from on high thrilling raptures
were whirled,
In Nevada.
Stalwart the people whose homes dot
the plains
Won from the desert by ~unfagging
palms.
They've tapped the old mountains
They take all the tenderfoot's wealth
that remains
In Nevada.
We love the gray cores that that cash
the brown earth
With glittering gold that measures
their worth;
The tumultuous joys that find a quick
birth,
The spirit that quenches all sorrow
and mirth,
In Nevada.
