FARMER AGAIN HEARD FROM
Farmer Gives Opinion On
Governors Race.
BREWER AND THE MASSES TOGETHER
Says Brewer is Looking to the Far
mer and WorkiugMen for His
Main SuppOrt-COrpOratiO
are Against Him.
Greek, Miss, June "a, 1907.

Editor Sentinel: Since a former
communication of mine appeared in
your valuable paper | have been
watching anxiouSly the race for Cover.
nor. / have been watching the ''line
up" and / find all the old broken
down politicians who live about the
town sand the state capital are doing
everything possible to defeat Brewer.
In fact the broke down aristocracy''
and old convention bosses constitute
the backbone of the element making
war on Hon. Earl Brewer,
The people are with you, in the
great fight you are making for the
nomination of man for governor,
who will stand by the rights of the
people, against the greed Of railroads,
corporations, money power and the
trusts | thank God that Mr.. Brewer,
has the courage to turn the lights on
to some of the doingS of the railroads
and the allied interests: he has opened
the eyes Of the people; they are
aroused as never before, and no pro
railroad imam will be nominated for
governor.
We all rejoice and feel glad over
the good news that comes to us from
all corners Of our good old state
that Hon, Earl Brewer is leading in
the race for governOr-he makes
votes wherever he speaks, the peo-
pie gladly listed to him and rally to
his cause.
The opinion seems to be general,
among all well Informed people, that
Brewer will go into the second pri-
mary the leading candidate, and in
the run off he is a sure winner
There is good reason, for the popu-
larity of Mr. Brewers canvass. His
speeches touch the hearts of the peo-
pie. The issues he presents are popu-
lar and are the leading questions of
the day. "The man, the opportunity,
the hour" is answered in Hon. Earl
Brewer. The question is often asked,
Have the railroads a candidate for
governor. do not know, but there
is one thing | do know, they are not
lOI MI. DIcWcI, anu UIllS one ldCU Is
enough to rally all patriotic citizens
to Mr. Brewer. The railroads and
corporate interests generally being
against him, should make him strong
er with the people.
No man can successfully cOntrovert
the principles in Brewers platform,
they are Democratic, they are live
iSsues-they are of the people, and
for the people. Call him anarchist,
if you will, call him torpedo boat. ,"
and mudSlinger" if you wish, but
the principles he advocates are
eternal, and will not down. Insinuat-
ing insults, are not argument, and
you can't lead the people off with such
stuff.
The people believe in a square deal
for every man, and Mr.. Brewer is the
peoples candidate. The railroads,
tie trusts, the politicians, the rings
and town cfiqueS are all against him,
he looks to the farmers, the mechanic,
the wage Garner, and all who earn
their bread by the sweat of their face

ment and happiness as q people de.
pends largely upon the amount and
character Of education we receive.
If it is true that state or nation
progresses in proportion to the
amount of education it receives, then
it behooves us to exert every effort to
give to Mississippi a school system
the equal of any in the land.
l believe that the state superin-
tendent should visit every county in
the state at least once a year and con-
fer with people relative to the needs
of their schools. II / should be so
fortunate as to be elected bv the peo-
pie to this high office l now pledge
that l shall exercise such supervision,
and that l shall,fOllow in the path
way of Prof. Henry L. Whitfield,
who has worked so earnestly and
wrought so we'll for the educational
interests of the state.
1t is particularly gratifying to me
at the very beginning of my CAM
paign to have the support, voluntari-
ly rendered, of hundreds OF teachers
and other citizens throughout the
state. That Gov. Vardaman has
appointed me over my distinguished
opponents to the vacancy in the Of
flee create by the resignation OF
Supt. II. L. Whitfield, is an endorse
ment of my qualifications which |
highly appreciate and which should
be source of encouragement to my
friends.
The time before the election is SO
limited that it will be impossible for
me to attempt to make a visit to every
country; therefore; 1 take advantage
of this opportunity to solicit the sup
port and influence eff every citizen.
The platform upon which l stand and
respectfully ask the suffrage of the
people is a better chance in life for
every boy and girl.
Respectfully,

Homes of the SaVages In the Days Of

While in buffalo days some of the
wild Indians Of the plains occupied per
manent dwellings during a part of the
wear, there were others who lived Who'll

These were made of buffalo skins
tanned white and scwcd together. They
were of different sizes, the poor occu

man. he who owned many horses. very
likely had large family and required
larger lodge The size of a mans
lodge was to some extent an indication
of his wealth Two horses were need
ed to drag the poles of large lodge
and one to carry the lodge itself, three
horses for the transportation of the
dwelling alone, TO say nothing Of the
other property and the different mem
beers of the family
A lodge of moderate size required
eleven skins, and eighteen poles were
needed to set it up, \ sixteen skin
lodge required twenty two poles. The
larger the lodge the greater waS til,

fact that they used an unusual number
of poles In setting up their lodges 1t re-
