Wanted To Talk.

A clustering, self-important
gentleman walked into a barber
shop at Peck and wanted his
hair cut. He didn't want any
talk just a plain hair cut, and
he wanted it right away.
The modest and unpretentious
old gentleman in the attempted
to explain, but was roughly told
to go ahead without a word.
After toe job was finished the
man who knew everything look
ed in the glass and was Mortified
at his appearance. He fairly
stormed around, and Indignantly
asked the old gentleman if he
called that a hair cut.
Il don't know. You must ask
the barber. He'll be in presently.
| am the editor of the village pa
per, and was waiting for hair
cut myself, but you woulden' t
give me a chance to explain. "

At A MODERATE PRICE.

Among the deacons of a Pres
byterian Church in an Ohio town
was a good old gentleman ia.
miliarly known as Uncle Thorn
as" Although too deaf to hear,
he was in his accustomed seat at
the church, and bis zeal in re-
ligious work was nntiring, says
Success. Owing to a shortage
of song books in the Sabbath
school, some additional ones were
ordered by Uncle Thomas, -
who apprised the pastor Of their
arrival, and the latter agreed to
announce the fact from the pull
pit on Sunday morning.
The pastor made the promised
announcement among others, con-
GLIDING with this one:
Parents wishing their child.
rem baptized will please present
them at the close of the service. >
The good deacon jumped to his
feet, and in the loud voice pc
culiar to the deaf, bawled out
Those who haven't any can get
them at my house for so cents
apiece"
AS Uncle Thomas" and his
wife had always been childless,
this startling information almost
broke up the meeting, and a wave
of merriment swept the congre-
cation that threatened to shake

The state of Nebraska holds
$597, 900 in Mississippi bonds, a
matter that was not known in
the state until interest coupons
were presented at the state
treasury for payment. The
bonds held by Nebraska repre-
sent about one third of the bon
ded Indebtedness of the state.
Since one state has available
funds with which to purchase
the funds Of another the ques-
ton very naturally arises, Why
cannot every state have suffi.
cient funds with which to meet
current expenses?.
The bonded indebtedness of
Mississippi has been incurred
within a very few years and
should not be increased. A tax
levy sufficient to meet the expen-
SEES Of the state, run on an
economical basis, should be made
by every legislature and no de-
ficit left over for subsequent
legislature o provide for. No
state should have a surplus with
which to buy bonds, but every
state should be run so as to keep
it out of debt.

The work being done through
the corn clubs of the various
counties in educating the boys
how to raise corn, will prove to
be seed sown on good ground.
The lack of information along
this line is widespread, and a
crusade for the purpose of en-
tightening the people how to
raise better and larger crops of
corn will be the means of hasten
ing the day of greater property
for the state. The full corn crib
means independence, and with
the soil found in Mississippi the
crop should not fall in average
below that Of any state. More
than 5000 boys are this year ex-
pertinent through the corn clubs
and the result of their work will
be announced at the meeting of
the state fair in November at
Jackson. What the result will
be will be watched with much in
terest by the friends of the boys
who commend them for their la :
bors in this direction.

A merchant, on being approach
ed recently by a representative
of a job printing establishment
made the printing house drum
mer feel ashamed of himself by
saying: Il believe in having my
printing done at home. We
have a good Office here, the work
is perfectly satisfactory and l
find the prices very reasonable.
The more money spend with my
home printer the more he will
with me. Besides this it enables
him to employ mere help in his
office, and the money paid to
these employees will it's way in
to the home channels of trade.
If l give you an order for prin-
ting, it means just that much
money taken out of town. Even
if you do it a little cheaper than
the home printer | am compelled
to pay express charges on the
work, which about evens up mat
tiers. The home printer lives
among US and helps to keep our
institution; he is my neighbor,
friend and patron, therefore l
propose to give him my printing
as long as | am in business.

Mr. BRYAN NOMINATED.

The nomination of Mr.. Bryan
at Denver was the result of as
nearly a unanimous sentiment on
the part of the entire democracy
as was ever found in the nom
nation of any candidate. 1t was
the will of the democrats recored
by their representatives in the
party council. It was the ex-
preston of the minds and hearts
of the people, who have learned
as the years roll by to admire and
appreciate the many noble quail
tiles of this most typical and
greatest living American. In Mr..
Bryan, the plain people, those
who believe in honest elections
and good government, find ar
ideal; and if every voter were
left to register his individual
choice, uninfuenced, we have
no doubt that Mr.. Bryan would
be the choice of a majority OF
the people for the exalted posi-.
ton to which he aspires. If the
democrats can elect the presi.
dent all, they can elect Mr.. Bry-
an; if they cannot elect a pres.
ident, the individual democrat
who is true to his party has the
conscientiousness of having voted
for the best man the nation afford
ed for the place.

The republican party has
fought down every effort to
make public all subscriptions to
the national campaign fund and
succeeded in killing all measures
before congress advocated by
the democrats. In New York,
however, is a law that prevents
the use of money for campaign
purposes except for legitimate
purposes and publicity must be
made of all amounts used.
The democrats are placed at
greater advantage than ever be-
fore through this law and New
York will prove to be the great
fighting ground of both parties
during the campaign.
