He left here on the Gergia last Sunday with the os- tensible purpose Of visiting Juneau, but if all reports are true he did not tarry very long at that place. It is under stood that the fpapcial condition of MT. Ford is in very bad shape and his books are so muddled it is impossible to tell how he stands. He is supposed to have gone to Kansas City to join his wife, who has been visiting in that city for some time. The Musher is very much surprised at the turn of events, as we always thought MT. Ford was square business man, and hope that he will re- turn and straighten things out.

Mississipp's New Superintendent Of
Education.

Prof, J. N. Powers of West Point,
Miss, who was appointed on yesterday
by the governor state superintendent of
education was born in Hale county,
Ala, his parents having moved to that
state from DeKalh, Kemper county,
Mis- Prof. Powers is the son of one
the pioneer preachers of Mississippi
and Alabama, Rev. w. l, Powers, who
was actively engaged in the ministry
for more than fifty years. His father
being a minister, he had in his youth
the opportunities only Of the average
preachers son, but by the exercise of
self-denial and resolution he completed
successfully a college course of study.
Prof, Powers was educated at the South
ern University, Greensboro, and the I'M
iversity Of Mississippi, and University
Of Chicago. He taught for several
years in the rural districts forty miles
east of Meridian, Miss,
In early manhood he came to Mis-
sissippi where he was for several years
principal of the high school at Waynes-
boro. From there he went to Grenada
as superintendent of public schools and
at the time of his appointment was SUI
perintendent of the city schools of West
Point. Prof, Powers is one of the fore
most orators of the state, and his cam
paign work in the rural districts under
the administration of Supt. Whitfield has
accomplished great deal for the ad-
vance of education in Mississippi. The
appointment Of Prof. Powers is a wise
one, as he possesses to an eminent de-
gree those qualities of scholarship and
leadership so necessary in that Office
Prof. Powers announces that he will
be candidate for the regular term and
that he will enter actively at once upon
a canvass of the state. Meridian Star.

The Crops.

From the reports of farmers coming
into town during the week, it is gath
cred that crops in the county are from
two to three weeks behind the average
stage of development at this season Of
the year, but for the most part clear
and growing very favorably. In some
sections rain is needed though not i'm
peratively, while in others plenty Of
rain has been received All that is
needed to give our people a fairly gooc
crop-and one too likely to bring fine
price-is continuance Of good cottol
weather, such as has been had for some
weeks with no threat of disastrous
change.

SENATOR MORGAN.

In the death Of Senator Morgan the
South loses one of its finest type Of
men and statesmen, and the nation a
splendid representative of a race OF
public men who lived and acted in sterr
and trying times. Mr.. Morgan was a
man of the firmest convictions, and il
he ever made one concession to eXpedi-
ency or public Slamor, or the exigen.
les of occasions we have never heard
of it. He was as fixed as a rock anC
Just so firm was he placed in the high
regard and estimation of his state and
his nation.
1t is a high tribute to his honesty and
courage that so little has been said Of
these two characteristics of his, in the
mass of comment that has followed his
death. They were so well known anc
universally admired as to need no com
ment-no recalling to the public mind,
And whenever and wherever the 18TH
milan canal may be built, no history that
is honest and true can deprive Mr.
Morgan of the honor of being its BRAY
est, ablest and most earnest and active
champion Every ship that passes
through that waterway when com
pleted should salute some marble sta.
tute of him, who more than any Other
man is responsible for its being.

Reunion Postponed.

The reunion Of Confederate Veterans
Of NoXubce county which at a former
meeting was set for July the fourth has
been postponed to a day to be decided
upon later. The facts that the Will
liams-Vardaman debate would take
place in Meridian on the day named,
and the crop conditions in the county
were requiring the presence in their
fields of all farmers, seemed to make
it advisable that the proposed meeting
be postponed This action was taken
by the officers of the Noxubee County
Camp after consultation with such
members as could be reached conven.
iently. 1t is to be understood that the
annual reunion this year is by nc
means to be pretelmitted, but only
put off to more convenient season
when all the veterans can attend.

W. S. M Allister Shot.

Canton, Miss, June %. A very de
pIorable shooting occurred here this
morning, resulting in the supposed ia
tai wounding Of w. S. McAlEster, a
former member of the State Legislature,
by DR.. S. S. Walker.
The shooting was done with double
barreled shotgun loaded with buckshot,
and occurred about one mile from north
of Canton on the public road.
From the best information that can
be obtained the two men hada difficulty
in the magistrates office yesterday
over lawsuit, when McAllister at
tackled Walker and several blows were
struck before they were separated.
Afterward McAllister with his broth.
err, F. c. McAllister, went again to the
magistrate, when w. S. McAllister
threw an inkstand at DR.. Walker, strik-
ing him on the head and causing a pain
full wound.
About O'Clock this morning w. S.
McAllister, coming into town in a
buggy, passed blacksmith shop.
Walker stepped from the shop and fired
both barrels Of his gun, striking Nc
Allister in the arm, neck, shoulder and
side.
Walker make his escape and has not
yet been captured.
1t is possible that the wounds may
not prove fatal, but McAllister will
likely lose his right arm.

Williams Vardaman Debate.

The state Of dubiety in which the
matter Of the Governors meeting his
opponent in Meridian on July the fourth
has at last been put an end to and it is
now positively announced that his Elk.
cellency will meet Mr., Williams fairly
and squarely in joint debate at the
place and time named.
The Governor is lucky in the day
named for the meeting as his oratory
is VIGOROUSLY Of the Fourth Of july
style. And something of the holiday
spirit seems to pevade the ranks "a
his friends now that their champion
has undoubtedly pickedup the enemy
gauntlet and will appear on che feIl
battle; this citation is something Far
different from their difHdeut attitude
of week ago, and very different too.
possibly, from the way they will feel a
week hence.
For our own part we think it not i'm.
probable that Governor Vardaman will
surprise some Of his enemies and some
of his friends toby the effort he will
make. The occasion is one of supreme
almost vital, importance to him and he
knows it. He will give the best that is
in him, and he has had long preparation
and able advisers. Those who are
present will hear two great speeches,
for Mr.. Williams is par excellence a
debater, and one of the ablest this ma
ton has ever produced.
