Representative Gaines, of Ten

upon the consideration of his bill
providing that members of Con

what can he expect to accomplish
by new law when an act of liks

The missouri Girl.

"The Missouri Girl" is a comedy
drama that produces more genuine,
hearty laughter than anything yet
written. In conn tion with a
strong and interesting plot it con.
tains the most ludicrous situations
ever conceived. The company pre-
senting the play this season is COM
posed of some of the best known
people in the theatrical profession,
who are fully capable of extracting
this fun and dealing it out to the
public in most satisfactory man
ner. Nine OF the old favorites re-
main in the cast. Some of them
have played their respective roles
continuously tor the past eight sea-
sons This guarantees first-class
performance. The new people added
this season were selected for their
peculiar fitness for the roles they
we're TO assume and il is safe to
predict that a "better than ever"
line can safely be added to the ad-
vertising matter.
The vaudeville portion of the show
has been enlarged n strength

famous "clodhopper' dances, the

TIE NEeRo's BEST HOME.

In Kemper County, Miss, the
three white ruffians who murdered
the negro Nicholas, a peaceful and
industrious citizen, who had the
respect of the community, have
been indicted, and Gov. Vardaman
has offered a reward of $500 for
their apprehension. If caught, it
is expected that justice will be
promptly meted out to them. A
year or two ago a white man was
legally hanged In Mississippi for
killing negro.
Noting the efforts of the whites
to capture the murderers of Mich
olas, the Washington Post, whose
editorial writer's are thoroughly
familiar with the South, and es-
pecially the Far South, says: "The
South is the place for all such ne
groes as this Nicholas is reputed
to have been--the cotton South.
There is not day in that section
that white jurors do not return
verdicts for black litigants in law
suits between scamp white men
and honest black m en-, such as
Nicholas was. In no other coun-
try can the sober, Industrious,
harmless negro do so we'll as in
the cotton country. Cotton is his
crop. 1t requires less skill to till
it than any other crop, infinitely
less than does tobacco or corn.
Just scratch the ground, plant,
hoe, cultivate with bull tongue
then pick, and you have the staple
that will fetch the cash in ten
thousand markets. Cotton and the
negro are a happy combination,
and the best satisfied and most
contented people on earth are to
be found in the negro cabins of
the cotton South. But it is a bad
place for your political or your
negro "a bad place
for your vagabond, criminal ne
gro-a very bad place, indeed"
The truth of this will not be
by those familiar with
the facts. The negro gets a fairer
deal in the South than anywhere
else, and has a better chance to
succeed, to earn living, to work
at a trade, to own farm or &C
quire property tn n anywhere
else. And if he shows himself
worthy h. will find plenty of
white friends to stand by him.
Thousands of negroes will testify
to this. Nashville American.

CAUCUS NOMINATIONS.
Tollett in the Senate and Cunning
ham in the House

The name of Hon. J. j. Bean did
not go before the State Democratic
caucus as a candidate for Speaker
this morning, and Hon. e. G. Toll
lett of Cumberland County was
elected as the Democrats nominee
by acclamation.
After nominations had been plac-
ed IN order and the name Of Mr..
Toilet had been placed before the
caucus Mr.. Bean arose and said
that, as he believed that the ma
lority desired Mr.. Toilet for pre-
siding officer, he would second the
nomination of Mr.. Toilet.
Gov. John l. Cox, who will be in
the Senate after he vacates the Of
fee of Governor participated in the
caucus. He moved that Mr.. Toll
lott be elected by acclamation, and
it was so ordered.
For Chief Clerk. Ed Thomas was
reelected on the first ballot. f, H.
Burks was also reelected as As
sistant Clerk
1t required thirteen ballots to
elect an. Engrosslng Clerk, Miss
Barry finally winning over three
competi tors. For Sergeant.at-
Arms there were four candidates,
Sullivan winning on the sixth bal
lot. Mike Madden and Frank Hal
lam were elected pages.
The caucus completed it's work
in less than an hour and a half and
adjourned sine die about thirty
minutes before the time set for the
convening of the full Senate.
HOUSE STRIKES sNAG.
The House caucus did not have
as easy sailing as the Senate. Sew
eral snags were run against after
Mr.. Burkhalter was elected Chair
man and the body got down to bus
mess.
While nominations were being
made for Speaker, Representative
Marr, of Davidson, one of the can
didates charged that deal had
been made whereby three commit
tee chairmanships were to 60 to the
Davidson delegation in exchange
for Cunningham votes. This was
denied by Representative Peay of
Davidson and the little breeze soon
blew over.
The first ballot for Speaker show
ed that Representative Cunning
ham of Montgomery County had
decided lead with Representative
Cummins of Hamilton, rather dis
tant second and Gordon third. Rep
resentative Marr of Davidson failed
to develop any initial strength.
Cunningham gained on the second
ballot, coming within a few votes
of the nomination.
Representative Cunningham was
nominated on the third ballot, his
choice being made unanimous after
the roll call showed victory for
