The Bolivar County Democrat. (Rosedale, Miss.) 1887-1969, 1907-03-30
THE PEOPLES CANDIDATE.
Mr.. Scott Gaining Votes
With Every Speech.

Hon. Charles Scott made a pro-
found impression at Oxford i'll two
addresses, one delivered before the
Farmers Union and the other III
advocacv of his candidacy for gov
ernor.-The meteor.
Hon. Chas. Scott is back in the
game" and is headed for South
Mississippi. He will come to Pop
ularville and address the people III
the near future, perhaps during
court week, and he will have some
thing to say for himself in regard
to the attacks made upon him by
the other candidates. Mr.. Scott's
increasing popularity has got the
other fellows scared up. He will
have to be defeated to give any Of
the others show, and they realize
it.-Popularville Herald Record.
State politics have been dull
during the winter. But now the
peoiod of Information seems about
to end, and Charles Scott is i'll the
lead. Brains. character and intel
ligence being III demand now, it is
perfectly natural that Mr.. Scott
should out distance all competitors.
/ hey are all good men and able
men, and being true, it is the more
credit to Mr.. Scott to be chosen
over them. He made great inl-
PRESTON on the occasion of his first
visit to Columbus. The CONNER
cial, Columbus.
In our Judgment Charles Scott
of Bolivar represents i'll his person
and his achievements the man who
should be Miss!ssippi's next COVER
nor. A man whose own success
lines indicates more forcibly than
language can that he is the man for
the place. Under his adrninistra-
ton mississippi will begin career
of prosperity, the end of which no
man can foresee, and for which
this generation will receive the
laudations of all posterity. Let
Noxubee in one solid phalanx, go
to the polls in August and by their
vote secure his nomination. macon

The Herald favors the candidacy
of Hon. Chas. Scott for governor
because lie is making an absolute
ly clean race, appealing to the
rather than the preju-
dices of the people and because he
does things, acts rather than talks.
Mr.. Scott is moving along quietly
paving, little attention to the efforts
of his opponents to commit him to
he policy of importing a low and
vicious class of Italian laborers, but
at the proper time Mr. Scott will
doubtless devote some attention to
the more exaggerated statements in
this connection. The citizens OF
Alcorn are two intelligent to give
any serious attention to such efforts
and ii is safe guess that when the
vote in this county shall have
been counted, Charles Scott will
easily head the list.-Corinth
Hearld.
The opponents of Hon. Chas.
Scott, candidate for governor, have
no doubt been trying to make po-
litical gain out of this gentleman
absence from the political arena,
during which he has been at home
looking after his farming interests,
which have suffered OIL account Of
the recent high water, but he is
again in the field and as he says,
he will prosecute vigorus CAM
paign of the state, and those who
have though me dead will find
that have not even been sleep
ing" Mr.. Scott is conceded to be
the leading candidate for governor,
and that he will retain this lead,
until landed in the guberuatorial
chair, we do not doubt. The ma
iority of the voters of the state will
support him because they know
him to be safe man to entrust
with the reins of Office. Wood
vile Republican.
There are two particular prom
inent and CONSPICUOUS features
of the canvass of Hon. Charles
