safe. A nation of towards. however
prosperous, cannot be great nation.
Men and women who dare fling them
selves against great odds for the sake
of their convictions; who do not

evil that may menace the purity Of
the government; who will, If need be,
sever all political. social and financial

heroes to which a nation resorts In

LUTHER MANSHIP FOR LIEU
TENANT GOVERNOR.

81 @ECOND only per-
NMM ~. haps to the position
O Of the Chief Execu-
LfklSx tive, is that not often
ernor.
This city was honored last week by
a visit from the leader for this impor-
tant position in the FIRST primary, Hon.
Luther MansF;p, who enters for the
run-of with several thousand votes in
excess Of his competitor.
Mr.. Manship is a gentleman in
every way qualified for the position,
not alone because Of his literary at
tainment; and legislative experiences
but also because he is practical man,
his younger days having been given to
active work in the machine shops Of
the Illinois Central Railroad, where he
served an apprenticeship OF the Illinois
Central for six years and afterward
worked for years in the creative de-
partment. He says it is the proudest
reflections Of his life that he has many
pieces Of finished machinery in the
service of the country which are chill
dren Of his handiwork.
Mr.. Manship had of late years been
a popular platform lecturer, and in
every state in the Union has admirers
who will rejoice to see him honored
by election to the second highest office
in the state of Mississippi, the state of
his nativity.
In North Mississippi this popular
gentleman vii develop especial strength
in the primary next week, as the prac-
tically unanimous Endorsement given
him in his home and neighboring
counties in the first primary carry with
it stamp of personal worth and pop
ularity worthy of limitation.

PRoNoUNCING "ILLINoIs. f"

In certain sections of the country
remote from this commonwealth
there Is some agitation concerning
the proper pronunciation of "Illi-
nois." Various newspapers have dis
cussed the matter gravely in their
columns, and the impression seems
to have gone abroad that in Illinois
itself the topic is of vital and perman-
ent interest. The people of Illinois
have been represented as sitting up
late at night arguing the question of
I"lllinoy," '1llinoise," or "Illinwah, "
and threatening to submit the mat
ter TO Springfield for legislative ac-
ton. All of which would be interest
ling If true.
The sober facts in the case are that
by common consent of people living
in this commonwealth the general
principle laid down by Sam Weller
has been adopted, and everything de.
ponds on 'the taste and fancy of the
speller." There are those who say
lllinoy and those who say Ilinoise,
and the Century dictionary absolves
them all. Undoubtedly the pronoun-
citation Illinoy is most frequently in
evidence. However, should a citizen
say Illinoise he would not be debarred
from voting. put out of church, rid
den out of town. or told to move over
into Missouri, where fresh trouble
would await him. so far as our in
formation goes there have been no
town meetings TO discuss the matter
and no notable crimes have resulted
from mad passions excited by the
warmth of debate for and against
There is not the slightest intention
of bringing the question before the
Legislature. for. whatever the legis-
lature might decree in the case, the
idea of individual right would appeal
to the masses, and every man would
go right along pronouncing as he ac-
'quired the habit long before he began
to pay taxes.
Much time has been spent by wise
men and others of the east in debat-
ing whether Illinois should be pro-
nounced with the 10Y" sound and Chi
cago with the broad "a" Perhaps
these discussions add to the spread
of general intelligence, and possibly
they take place where they are the
most needed. Here they have not
been permitted TO disturb the most
beautiful tranquility. When a
stranger arrives he is not asked
whether he comes from Moo Yawk or
New York.; If he has the making OF
