daman wave" the editor of this news
paper doesn't know it, and we have
been pretty close to Mississippi affairs
for the past dozen years. James X.
Vardaman is a big-brained MISSISSIPPI
plan. 1t is generally agreed that he
made the state one of the best gov
errors that it has ever had, and his
popularity was attested by the fact
that he came within an ace of defeat
ing the peerless John Sharp Williams,
one of the brightest men in the repub-
lie, for United States senator in Dem
ocratic primary.
If the esteemed Register regards this
as a wave" it is much mistaken. Po-
Htical brainstorms are not native to
Mississippi, as sane and sensible stat.
utes enacted through long chain of
years VIII amply attest.
Mississippi led all of the state of
the south in its constitutional enact
ments, temporarily eliminating the ne
gro from politics-and Mississippi is
likely to lead the other common.
wealths in permanently RELOCATING him
to his proper sphere in the affairs of
men.
Vardaman's remedy is the repeal of
the Fifteenth Amendment to the con.
stitution of the United States and he
is not alone in his contentious. The
south is with him now, and few more
race riots in Illinois and other states
beyond the border will bring the sensi-
BILE people of the North to the same
way of thinking, despite the attitude of
milk-andwater editors of the Mobile
Register type.

Hollis Politics.

No, Gwendoline, it is not true that
Dave Holt, of the Biloxi Herald, is 60
ing to vote for Chain, the Prohibit
zionist candidate for president-Jack-
son News. ...
And there's where you're wrong.
That is exactly what Dave is going to
do. He confided the fact to us the
other day over glass of lemonade in
corner drug store-and the animus of
his resolution is the fact that Biloxi is
going dry and he's trying to get used
to it. Dave is kinder selfish. you
know. If Biloxi couldn't have oysters,
he'd swear by all of the dead mer-
maids in the Gulf of Mexico that the
tribe were extinct.
We desire to break the news gently.
but the world must know the truth
Dave Holt is now a full-fedged prohi-
biticnist.

Governor Hughes, of New York, may
be a shrewd politician, but there are

very sensitive-in their pocketbooks.

That Oxford Mob.

Time forbids extended comment on
the work of the Lafayette County
mob at Oxford last night. That the
black brute deserved his ignominious
fate, none will deny. All of the excru-
ciating agonies of the eternally
damned will doubtless be his inner
itance-and justly so.
Mob law is wrong. But crimes so
revolving as this can hardly be meas
ured by the standard of the law.
An outraged people-in cases of this
kinds scarcely capable of enter
tanning a judicial thought. And the
spirit of revenge knows no legal
bounds.
1t was only natural that the trained
and tempered mind of Judge Roane
should counsel peace-that he should
plead for the respect for law which his
oath of office consecrates.
In sheer contradistinction was the
lncendiary speech of former United
States Senator w. V. Sullivan, who
urged the mob to do its worst" Such
lRtemperaAee Is regretted for the harm
it may do the state. Out of respect for
the high office which he has held, if
for no other reason, Senator Sullivan
should have remained silent:

Is Vardaman Discraaited?

The Mobile Register of yesterday
copies an extract from a recent issue
of the New York Times and proceeds
to endorse the position of that paper
by trying to make it appear that ex-
Governor Vardaman has been discred-
tied by his own people and that the Ne

ter says;
2 1.-THE Vardaman wave In Mississippi
passed some time ago. The people of
that state are far too sensible to be
led long in the wrong direction. The
trouble about Vardaman is that he is
strong in seeing trouble and weak in
providing a remedy; and the people
have come to recognize that his rem.

THOMAS A. EDISON

TyHE critical illness of Thomas "A.
Edison will arouse sympathy and
IL create comment all over the world.
This wonderful telegrapher who de-
voted himself to the study and appli-
cation of electricity, has not only made
his name a household word in all quar-
ters of the globe, but has made the
world an easier place to live in. Mr..
Edison says the use of electricity is
IN its infancy, and that we know little
or nothing about this or any other nat
ural force. The manner in which he
once summed up his life to the writer
was almost exactly in the following
words: 1.-THE more I know, the more
I know that l don't know. The more
1 find out, the more 1 discover how lit
tie 1 have found out. Some people
think that my record is one to be proud
Of If they knew what 1 know, or
rather, If they were conscious of my
consciousness of what l do not know,
they would realize that l have accom-
plished very little. However, little is
better than nothing at ALL.
Los Angeles herald., 1908-02-29

It's purposes, may be inferred from the.
nne sendoff that Mr.. Hearst gives him
SELF IN his remarks about his own
speech at Chicago. We quote:
for' twenty minutes or more the
New Yorker continued to lombard the
SITUATION with epigram, quotation and
nlstorlcai precedent. analyzing exist
ing conditions, thrusting with unerring
accuracy at the weak spots in machine
arlnor and holding up the high ideals
of the citizenship that have made the
league great national factor in less
than two years"
Among these epigrams. with which
Mr.. Hearst says he bombarded the
startled gathering of his friends and
employees, we find the following:
81 define a party as a collection of
individuals devoted to certain prin-
ciples and active in politics to promote
these principles. and / declare that
according to that definition there is no
national party in the United States
today
If we add to "devoted to certain
principles" the modifying clause "ac-
tuated by the same payroll the de-
scription might fit the closer. But
what are these principles? The other
day Mr. Hearst printed a page of big
type in which he fatty repudiated most
of the principles" that the Hearst
newspapers have been advocating for
years. In this perplexity as to prin-
ciples the only safety lies in fidelity
to the payroll.
