Mr.. E. J. Smith, Deputy State
Auditor, and candidate for Auditor,
was in the city yesterday. Mr. Smith
is native of the good old county of
Chickasaw, but for the past fifteen
years has made Jackson his home.
From 1887 to 1900 he was chief book
keeper under Hon. W. w. Stone and
Col. w. D. Holder, auditors; from
1901 to 1904, he was cashier of the
treasury department under Hons.
Geo. w. Carlisle and Thad B. Lamp
ton as treasurers; and from 1904 to
the present time he has been deputy
auditor. He has made a good and
faithful servant of the people and has
proved faithful to every trust. He
only asks promotion, and should the
people of Mississippi see fit to elevate
him to the position to which he as
pires he will serve them as we'll in the
future as in the past The state has
not within her borders man better
fitted for and more deserving of the
nor.-Evening News (Yazoo City,
Greene County herald. (Leakesville, Miss.) 1898-current, 1907-07-12
J. J. MCINNIS.

The one whose name we have over
written here is the third son of the
late John ]. McInnis, who was the
first citizen of Leakesyille, excepting
that period of time that his father
before him was accorded the same
claim.
Our subjects father served for sew
eral terms in the county's board of
lawmakers. If there is anything in
heredity surely John is fitted for the
Office on that score for his father
made good supervisor. John bears
the paternal name in full and was the
favorite son.
Born and reared almost under the
drip of the caves of the county S
temple of justice, keen observer of
the methods of its governmental ad
ministration, living to almost maturi-
ty in this atmosphere John is almost
bound to have become saturated with
some knowledge Of county affairs.
He is both a school and counting
room trained accountant, has dealt
in business matters of diverse natures
enough to have developed judgement
along these lines. .
Identified as he is with the inter
ests of this beat by property hold
ings, we naturally conclude that he
will 'abor assiduously to promote the
community of betterment so indi
Gated. The voters of Beat will set
tie on August l, which OF the trio
Offering, they desire to set as their
representative in the county solons,
SO we have finished our contract by
putting this name, with its connected
associations before their attention.
Suffragists, study the men and make
your choice. We will do no grumb-
ling when you have spoken.

Since eSpOuSing Mr.. SCOTS cause
we have never been that sanguine of
the situation in Greene county as to
claim that he would carry it, neither
have we heard any claim being made
by partisans of the other aspirants
for this honor. It looks to us very
much like that the vote in Greene, on
the gOvernorship is going to be badly
split between four men, Scott, Truly,
Noel and Sisson, with possibly a
small plurality for one of them. The
man that leads out of this county will
do it by such small figure that it
will be no reason for special elation.
AS the last hours of the campaign
approach we become more pleased
with the developments. This week
we learn, and that from one who has
traversed its bounds, that Beat 3. as
well as the other beats of the county,
will show on election day, division
tWixt the four above named. This
has not leaked out till now as most
of the leaders over that way are
centered on Noel and SissOn. This
is campaign year, when the masses
are not saying much, but are silently
thinking and are going to march to
the polls in large measure untram-
meled by bossism and vote their
honest convictions. If the Bolivar
county statesman can't win under
such conditions, why then we are
willing to see him go down in defeat,
but viii We? Nay, Pauline, Nay!
Nay!l

The HERALD is rounding out an
other years life. It's next birthday
comes along early in September. We
earnestly trust that those of our
friends who have permitted their
names to show in arrearage on the
subscription books will bestir them
selves before that time and enable us
to show list practically all paid UP
to date. There is not large number
who will have to do this. Surely
they can make the effort. 1t will be
appreciated, and used O so well
during these dull days. Come or
boys and make us glad with the rest
of the folks in this smiling land Of
plenty.

Twill be remembered that the
HERALD in reviewing the situation by
towns and counties, in the District
Attorney race last summer, gave fig
ures or predictions that worked out
admirably when the ballots were
counted We did not, out of a con-
sentative spirit, claim as much then
for Harrison as we really thought he
would get, but are frank to admit that
his landslide outdone even our bright
est, though unexpressed, expecta-
tions. We merely mention this mat
ter to have our readers call to mind
that we probably did them some
service at that juncture by giving the
benefit of our close study OF the sit
uation to them. We dealt candidly
then. We are preparing such sum-
marizing now to show how we expect
Charles Scott to be counted in as
governor. We mean finally. We
shall not claim victory in the first
primary. We will admit a second
run-off. But we shall attempt to
figure out, or attempt to tell you how
we figure out that he will be so ia
vored in the first as to win in the
final handicap. Our representations
will be within the narrowed bounds
of conservatism. When we make
statement like the one embodied in
the preceding sentence, we mean it
and think our past policy on this
score entities us to be believed.

Hottentot.

The origin of this name for the ma
tives of South Africa is peculiar. 1t is
said that the early Dutch soldiers at
the Cape of Good Hope particularly
noticed the click that forms so dis
tinct feature of the Kaffir language,
which sounded to them like a continu-
Gus repetition of the syllables hot"
and tot" They therefore called the
natives Hottentots, the zen" meaning
and ir the Dutch language.

Notice.

To the Teachers and Patrons of Greene
County.
The Normal will open here on Aug.
5, and last four weeks. Mr.. Whit
field assures me that the teachers for
the Normal are as good as can be had
in the state. We are going to give
the teachers of Greene and adjoining
counties a Normal that will be as
good as the best. We expect to have
a large attendance of teachers. We
are going to have some prominent
educators to address the teachers and
people during the Normal. No reg
istration fee will be charged. Open

OF the lineup for State Auditor,
the HERALD passes It's favors toward
E. ]. Smith. We are not particularly
struck with some of these minor state
Office candidates, but naturally will
settle upon one for each birth to
place our * mark by on the ticket.
Eight years ago we endorsed Smith s
candidacy for the same Office. and
while he was beaten in the state by a
then more popular man, it is crafty
iEg to us to remember that Greene
county returned him handsome ma
jority. Smith is not one of those
pesky kind of fellows drinking from
the public tank, who have got it into
their heads, that the newspapers are
to be ridden by their majesties. He
asks us to reprint couple of clip
pings for him in this issue and puts
up the proper lineage collateral for
the service. We would not permit any
one to buy our suffrage or endorse
ment, but it is refreshing to run
across, in these piping times of polit
lcal selfishness, a gentleman of the
old school once again. One who is
willing to pay his own freight. If
we were running his name at our
masthead, he could not pay for these
reproductions, that would invoke our
rules of ethics to preclude. Coming
to us asking the favor of this kind,
we treat a candidate like any adver-
tiser; pay for the use of our columns.
When we espouse choice, then we
elect ourselves what to print about
him and accept no compensation,
working then for the Qualification of
the body polite; periodically and in
party loyalty.

NAME ARRANGEMENT ON
TICKET.

Now that ticket printing time is
just about on hand, much interest
prevails in candidate circles over the
state as to the order that the names
will be arranged upon the ticket.
Nearly every Office seeker believes
that, while the advantage is small, it
is worth something to have his name
appear above his fellow competitors
under the particular Office heading
they are contestants for The idea
seems to be that when some electors
glance down the ticket they might in
some instance be moved in a spirit
of Indifference to mark the first name
under some of the several lists, es-
pecially with the voter who is not
much interested in every Office.
Several plans for putting the
names on have been hit upon. In
instances where the Democratic exec
utive committees fail to pass any res
olutions instructing as to how this
should be done, the editor printer
into whose hands the ticket printing
falls, plays nice game of coquetry
with the boys who are itching to be
first. He sometimes applies the rule
of arrangement in the order in which
the announcements reached his paper,
thereby putting premium on early
announcements in succeeding cam
paigns, then again he passes the ia
vors to the first who ask it, taking
care to give his favorite under each
head such a chance.
Some of the county committees
have passed resolution to this eff
feet: THE person who prepares the
ticket shall place the names of candi-
dates ON the ticket in the order in
which they shall pay the Secretary
the amount for their assessment for
getting name on ticket for their re-
spective Office. - This is not so good
a plan, because if understood before
hand that it would be adopted, every
candidate would be on hand in person
or by lieutenant at the committee
meeting and the instant the assess
ment was made and member desig-
mated to receive the money, there
would be mad scramble to hand in
the assessment, like thirsty boys at a
free lemonade barrel on a picnic day
in the hot summertime. Some more
orderly and fairer plan than that
should be evolved. In looking over
the different resolutions passed by
the county committees we find none
that commends Itself to us so we'll as
the following, if it has fault, we
trust that whichever one of our
thinking readers that notices it will
call our attention to same: 1.-THE
committee appointed to prepare bal
lots were instructed 20 write on slips
of paper names of all candidates for
each Office and place the same in hat
or box to be drawn out by some mem
Der and given places on the ticket in
the order in which they are drawn. y
This places each candidate on a fair
and equal basis to our understanding,
and we trust that our county com.
mittee will adopt this method of hand
ling this delicate point in future pri-
maries. 1t will remove the arrange
ment entirely from politics, giving
no chance for favoritism. We are
sure the printer, ticket commissioner
and candidates will all welcome it's
adoption as it gets each of them out
of a position they, if they are fair
minded, should not like to be in.

In the progress of the hearing Of
the Merrill depot removal case in
Chancery Court last Thursday, the
condition of S. D. McNair, while he
was acting in an official capacity at
Merrill over year ago, taking the
wishes of the people in this matter
came up. His indisposition during
that eventful day in that town, was
cautiously and facetiously referred to
as sickness" with a large character,
theoretically appended, made like this
90. 1t is a matter of common knowl-
edge, long since thoroughly aired,
that the president of our railroad
commission was on that day disgrace
fully drunk. Poor Mack. It's hard
for a public official to get away from
such conduct as this. This slip,
coupled with others, and his present
continued failure to reform, will be
remembered by the sovereigns of
Greene county when they repair to
the ballot box in August. McNair
will get some votes IN this county, an
inconsequental few, however. This
will serve him right. He should be
turned out of public Office, as he is
provedly hopeless swiller, enounced
reforms to the contrary, notwith-
standing. Maybe in private life he
can seek that retrenchment in appe-
tite that seems to be unattainable to
him as a servant of the public.

fact in a recent speech that Judge
