Jackson, Miss, January 25.-(Special.)- )- As time gallops along, speculations as to the next gubernatorial candidates in Mis- sissippi become more numerous and more positive, and even thus far in advance considerable interest is being manifested in the lists It is settled that Hon. Charles Scott and Hon. Earl Brewer are the only men who were candidates in the last race who will make another trial before the people two years hence. It is not known that there will be any other candidates for gubernatorial honors, but the chances are that there will be. It is being whispered around Jackson that Con- gressman Candler of the First district and whose home is at Corinth, has a few bees buzzing around in his bonnet, and that he may determine to make the race.
 Another suspect" is President George R. Hightower of the Farmers union, but it is not believed here that he has any idea of getting his great farmers organ ization mixed up in politics. knowing full well that would sound it's deathknell, just as it did for the alliance a few years ago, and the grange still further back.
 E1DulGellOT A. A. hluCdnUOn Ol lil6 State university has frequently been mentioned in connection with the gover- nors office, and he has. host of friends who would be delighted at the opportunity to give him a vote for anything in a way of an office he might happen to want.
 It is a fact that Is not generally known that the comparatively small state of Mis- sissippi has seven natives in the United States Senate, and that three of them were recently elected, or reelected, on the same day in as many states.
 The election of Governor Chamberlain as senator from Oregon at the hands of a republican legislature, calls this matter very forcibly to mind. Senator Chamber lain, as is the case with Senator New lands of Nevada, is a native of the city of Natchez, Miss. and both have been marked distinctions in their adopted states prior to their election to the Senate.
 Senator Clarke of Arkansas is a native of Yazoo City and like Senator-elect John Sharp Williams of Mississippi, is a grad uate of the University of Virginia.
 Senator Gore of Oklahoma is a native of Webster county Mississippi. and blind since childhood, when he was a page in the Mississippi legislature.
 Senator J. w. Bailey of Texas was born and raised in Copiah county, and edu- cated at the University of Mississippi.
 The five above mentioned, all represent ing different states, added to Senators Money and McLaurin, the latter a native of Holmes county, and the latter of Ran kin, make seven men who first saw the light of day on Mississippi soil. represen- tatives of their people in the Senate of the United States.
 It is now learned on the very best of authority that the New Orleans Great Northern railroad may not run it's first scheduled passenger train into the city of Jackson before the first of next July. The same authority states that there has been no physical connec- tion between the Great Northern and the Illinois Central roads at Seiger's switch three moiles south of Jackson, and as the Great Northern Is going to enfer Jackson oyar fha Illinois Central
