CITY PRIMARY ORDERED.
First One Feb. S, Second Feb. 7-Short
Contest.

By reference to the proceed
ings of the Democratic Executive
Committee Of the city published else
where In this issue of Tue Sentinel, 1t
will be seen that the date of the first
primary Is nominate city officers has
been set for Wednesday, February 5,
and the second primary two day s
later, February 7. This action OF the
committee brings the contest to an
early finish and no doubt meets the
approval of all the candidates as well
as the citizens at large.
The new city election commission
erS. y. l.. KimbrOugh, John Owens
and /. M. Stevens will review the city
registration books after February i
and let all who expect to vote remem-
Der that registration in the county is
required, as we'll as in the city, to
qualifv as a city electOr.
The names of all the present city
council will appear on the ticket to-
gether with names of some gentlemen
selected by the Executive Committee
to run. However, The Sentinel has
had positive instructions from several
of the parties whose names were Or
dered placed on the the tickets for
Aldermen, not to connect them with
the election, stating specifically that
they would not serve if elected.
The Sentinel hopes that the best
men will be elected and that the best
interests of the town will be promoted
by the election.

The Governors Message.

Governor Vardaman's message to
the legislature was most interesting
document, all right. He has a firm
enough grip on the Kings English
to make what he says readable from
start to finish, but The Herald con-
fesses disappointment ia the dCcu-
ment, nevertheless.
Like all of his predecessors he
touched solely on political issues.
The economical welfare of the state
rs left still without rudder Where
one hundred Thousand farm bands are
needed, we are asked to swallow
statutory prohibition. Where taxes
are increasing, land values decreas-
ing, and thousands Of acres going to
waste fer want of labor, he recomendS
bond issue to prevent deficiencies in
the fund to meet increased salaries OF
state officials.
Thissis doubtless a good quality of
Statesnianship but it is of the brand
with which this paper is cut of gear.

ROANE & CO.. LOSE BY FIRE.
Fire Last Sunday. Damage $4,000.

A little after IL o'clock last Sunday,
the interior of the store Of ROane &
Co., was found to be on fire. 1t had
evidently been burning for an hour
perhaps, aud had not the fire been
observed just when it was, 1t would
have been past control in a little
while longer and the entire stock as
well as the building would have gone
up in the flames.
Good and timely work by the fire
companies soon extinguiSned the
flames and saved the town no doubt a
very disastrous fire. The young
ladies in the telephone Office, which
is in the second story OF the Roane
building. were literarly smoked out
and they, it was, turned in the fire
alarm.
Roane & Co, had no insurance on
their stock Of goods. The building
was insured. The damage goods have
been removed to the store one door
east of Semmes' drug store where
they will be sold.

A DEPLORABLE ACCIDENT
Little Blanton Duncan Shot and
Killed While Out Hunting.
Just How Accident Occurred VIII
Perhaps Never Be Known-0ren-
ada rlourns With the Dis
tresseed Ones.

Late last Monday evening Grenada
was thrown into fever OF excitement
by the announcement that little
Blanton Duncan son, of Mr.. and Mrs.
B. G. Duncan, had been shot a4d
killed.
After the public school had dis
missed for the day, little Blanton and
two of his friends and playmates,
Wilmur Thomas and William BarkS-
dale, went out west CT town hunting.
They had been gone bat short while
when Mr.. Duncan received a message
from Henry Harvey, colored man,
that 4 little boy had been shot. Mr..
Duncan at once set out to the scene
and had not reached the western
limits of the city when he saw the
faithful darkey coming with a child
in hls arms. La q few minutes more
the lifeless body of the dear little
fellow was in the arms of him who
would have freely died for him. Ia a
very short while the news spread and
almost half the town gathered at the
Duncan home to mingle their tears
WlUIl ulc MO
Duncan being in Memphis and not at
that time aware of the terrible sorrow
that had come to her home.
That the little fellow should be cut
down in the vlgor Of health and
when life stretched out before him as
a beautiful rose garden-when there
were no shadows but nothing except
the music of childhood and the en-
chanting voice Of hope to animate his
young heart-made it an incident
that could but touch every Sympa-
thetic soul. The golden bowl was
broken and the silver chord was looSed
on this earth to be revived in mat
celestial city where angels are the
houSekcepers and where the redeemed
spirits baSk in the presence OF their
Maker.
The death of the little fellow, com
ing as it did, threw gloom over ohe'
whole town. It was sad, II WaS
pathetic and his demise is out another

[. B. James Asks Reelection.

Mr.. L. B. James submits his name
for reelection as city Recorder and
bases his claim for reelection upon the
correctness and faithful execution of
the duties he has been called upon to
perform. The recorders Office is a
very important one and had Mr..
James not measured we'll up TO his
duties, the critical and business
council which has reviewed his work
would no doubt have registered a
public complaint.
Mr.. James is a worthy citizen. He
is full Of energy and has a host OF
friends. The Sentinel takes pleasure
in presenting his name for reelection.

CIaud Hall in the Race.

With this issue of The Sentinel
Mr.. Claud Hall makes formal an
nouncement of his candidacy for city
marshall of Grenada. His father,
Captain r.. n. Hall, served the county
several successive terms as sheriff and
the county never had better public
official nor one that was more univer-
sally popular.
Claud is character very like his
lamented father and is peculiarly
qualified to satisfactorily discharge
the duties of the office which he
seeks. Upon the vigilance aud alert
ness Of the marshall largely depends
the peace and good order Of the town.
Since Mr.. Hall has been on the
police force, the fines imposed on the
lawbreaEers, apprehended by him,
have doubled the salary allowed hi m
by the city.
He is a quiet, transformations in
dividual and his word is his bond.
He is true to his friends, industrious
and obliging, and should the people
see fit to chose him as their next city
marshal. The Sentinel feels war
ranted in saying that he VIII meet
every demand Of the office to the en-
tire satisfaction OF the public.
