GREAT man
TAKES REST
THIS IS FIRST TINE IN SIXTEEN
YEARS Nat JOHN SHARPE
W1LLIA1tS HAS NOT BEEN A
CANDIDATE FOR REELECTION

Washington, Nov. 9.-John Sharp
Williams will be succeeded in the
house by an unknown quantity. The
prestige Of the Eighth Mississippi
district, which has for some time
held it's head high because Of the
Democratic leadership Of the house,
will rest upon the shoulders Of J.
w. Collier, of Vicksburg. Collier
Is without national reputation and
must content himself with a seat
at the rear of the political field. His
domination by the Democrats is a
striking illustration of the fact that
the confederate veteran no longer
holds in the South a mortgage on
political Office. $500.
/ The succession aroused a spirited
contest in John Sharp's old district.
Nomination being equivalent to ell
ection, Collier and two others fought
through hard primary campaign.
When the smoke Of battle arose from
after the primary election, none had
the necessary majority. Collier and
| Patrick Henry. who had the most
votes in the first primary, fought 1t
all over again, and Henry lest.
Patrick Henry had the qua!ifica-
tions which would have insured sue
cess not many years ago. He proud
" traces his descent from the fam
Gus Patrick Henry, and served all
through the war. surrendering as
major of Mississippi regiment.
/ The confederates no longer have
the right of way in Southern poll
, tics" said a prominent Southern
Democrat. The reason is partially
! that the issues of the war are deac
and have little appeal for the pres
cnt generation. But more import
ant than that is the fast that the
veterans are becoming old timers.
They are no longer able to take the
! laboring ore in politics or legislai
ton. The people of the South pre-
fer to place their interests in the
hands of younger, active men, who
are interested in the issues of tn!
day"
Sixteen Years in Congress.
/ This is the first time in sixteen
years that John Sharp Williams ha:
not been candidate for congress he
is now serving his eighth term. Hi
failure to appear in the race this
year is due to his election to th'
United States senate, where he VIII
take his seat in 1911. The custom
Of Mississippi of electing its seha
tors far in advance would give Mr.
Williams ample time to serve an
other term in the house but he ha
announced his intention to take
two years vacation from politica
life. Much of the time he proposes
to spend in Europe. About his ex
penses on this trip Williams does
not need to worry. AS wealth goe
