Now and again one runs across

Now and again one runs across
a person who seems to have alb
sorbed all the essential wisdom
of life, says the editor of Har-
per's Bazar. Such a one not only
lives easy with his kind, avoid
ing all unnecessary friction, but
he lives h~elpfully. One such
person said: There are two
things one has to do in life:
First, make up ones mind firm
ly. once and for all, that one
does not matter much, that ev-
erybody else in the world does
matter. And, second, one has
to learn that the important thing
is not what you can do with life,
but what you can do with your
self. There is immortal wis
dom in these two counsels of
perfection. The person who can
once convince himself that his
own fate is vastly unimportant,
compared with other peoples,
has come at the very kernel of
Christianity. And the person
who has learned that the events
that drop from fate are lnevita-
BILE and persistent, whereas the
spirit in which one greets events
is infinitely plastic and modi6ca-
BILE, has added the stole philos-
ophy to his Christianity.
It was the stole Emperor who
insisted that life is not given in
to our hands either to mold or to
hold back, 'but it is in the pow
er of the soul to maintain it's
own serenity and tranquility.
and not to think that pain is an
evil. For every Judgment and
movement and desire and aver
sion is within and no evil ascends
so high" In our own limited
sphere, then, we are creators,
making all events that touch us
take the shape of our own spir-
it's.

Second Primary.

There was quite a little excitement
owe the meeting of the Executive
Committee Friday to anvass the re-
turns of the second primary between j.
A. Lee and w. E. Stennis for Marshal.
II was charged that votes had been il
legally cast, there being three of those
challenged votes, and further intimated
that other ballots had been illegally
counted. Mr.. Iva Dorroh represented
Mr. Stennis while Messrs. Allgood and
Bush appeared for Mr.. Lee. The bal
lot was opened and the returns can
vassed showing a return by the mana
gers and clerks of{the election that 1O4
votes had been cast for Mr.. Lee and
1O2 for Mr.. Stennis.
After a lengthy argument by coun-
sci or both sides, the question finally
came before the committee on a motion
by Mr., Boyd that the ballots be re-
counted. This motion was lot, Messrs
Boyd and Carleton voting in the affr
nation and Messrs. Scales, Williams.
and Minor, chairman, in the mega
ClNC' II H1OCIO1 was CAC AloOC Wy
Mr.. Scales that the returns of the
managers and clerks of elections be
received and accepted and Mr.. J.. A.
Lee having IN the face of the returns
received a majority vote. he declared
the nominee. This motion was carried,
the vote being as before. The chair
man in casting the deciding vote stat
ed that in his opinion the law of Miss
issippi concerning primary elections
was Incomplete; that it gave to the
managers Of the elections the right tc
swear persons and making testimony
given before them perjury of false,
while no such power was given the ex'
ecutive committee, and the election
officers, not the committee, cad the
power to pass upon the legality OF
votes, reading from Code Sec. S417'
Further, it was a general law that
~canvassing board had no right to &c
behind the returns, and there being ne
state law changing that principle. he
was forced to hold that the committee
had no right to go behind the returns il
this case.

Clarion Ledger.
The favorite argument if such
it may be designated, of the Var
. damanians, is abuse of the. use
cret caucus when in fact there
was no secret caucus, only a Sc
cret Australian ballot, such as has
been the custom in this State at
all senatorial elections.
There was a caucus and secret
ballot when George unsolicited by
the Legislature in 1880, when he,
Basksdale, Singleton, and Wal
thall were candidates. There was
no caucus Of any kind when he
was reelected as he had no OPP
position before the Legislature.
There was a caucus and secret
ballot when McLaurin was nOmi-
mated in 1894 for Walthall's short
term. There was no caucus when
he was elected to a full term as
the nomination had been made in
primary, and he had no opposition
when last a candidate.
There was a caucus and secret
ballot when Money was nominated
in 1896, and a long and warm con-
: test it proved. He was reelected
without opposition, and in his
last contest the question was set
tied by a primary election, and
he won at the polls.
So it will be seen that secret
ballots have been the rule; and all
this talk and abuse of the "secret
caucus> is the merest clap-trap,
unworthy of the serious c~onsidcra-
ton of any just and fair-mined
man. That it will from the prin-
cipal plank in the Vardaman plat
form this or next year, whenever
the primary is held, there is no
doubt, for already it is being sung
and hearlded broadcast over the
State.
The following is a sample of the
dismal vail now going up, the ex-
tract being from the Bay st. Lou
is Echo.
''Were BilbO guilty a thousand
times of 9every dishonorable act
that the, defenders of Dulaney &C
cuse him, the stain that has been
placed upon the fair %escutcheon OF
Mississippi's democracy by the
late damnable secret caucus would
not be removed, and regardless OF
the results from either the grand
jury's Indictment or the Senate's
secret Investigations in the prem.
lses, there will always remain in
the minds of the people a suspi.
cion'over the manner in which the
late Senatorial caucus nomination
was effected. -.

INSURGENTS
DEFEATED

Managua, Nicaragua, Feb. 24.-The
government victory in Tuesdays
battle near Tipatana appears to have
been complete. The insurgents three
tines charged the bridge over the
Tipataha river, pouring their infan-
try against General Aguilar's battery
Of three Maxim guns with the fury
Of despair, bat were unable to force
a passage of the river and retired in
disorder. abandoning six hundred
rifles and baggage and leaving their
wounded on the field.
Captain Godfrey Fowler, the Amer
lean commanding General Cnamorro's
artillery. is reported wounded. Fow-
Ter was formerly a member of the 33rd
United States infantry.
The report of the governments vic
tory was received with great rejoic-
ing here and the celebration over the
news continues.
Fowler q Texan.
Dallas, Texas, Feb. 24.-Captain
Godfrey Fowler, wounded near Tipa-
taha, is a resident of Palestine, Tex
as, ana a grandson of the late John
H. Regan, postmaster general of the
Confederacy. Captain Fowler served

able rates will be adopted by the
court which would compel carriers to
do the very thing forbidden by law.
Any just rule therefore of rate regU-
lation must preserve to the carrier
both the right and the ability to rem
der all service at remunerative rates. ="
IF the regulation conpels a car
rier to render a portion of its service
ut less than cost" said the counsel
in closing, inevitably this loss mast
be distributed over the balance of its
business unless tle carrier can refuse
to render the service. The latter al
tentative is impossible. All service
rendered at a loss results in burden
ing the balance of the carriers ser
vice and considering the balance of
the carriers service: and considering
that railways are subject to regula-
tion of many states, as well as to that
of Congress. the necessary result of
one state requiring service to be rem
dered at less than cost is to impose
the loss on citizens of other states
and on the business of tae country at
large"

ness: no evidence as to the gross ex-
pense properly chargable to such bus
mess; and no proof of the value OF
the property which may be fairly said
to be engaged in the carrying on of
such business. 1t therefore stands
admitted upon this record that des-
pite the rate in question, these defen-
dants can earn at least a fair profit
upon their purely intra-state busi-
ness"
On the other hand the counsel for
the Northern Pacific contended that
IN order to be constitutional, the rate
must permit a fair amount of profit
tor the railroad.
No one can contend il to be nec-
essary for the protection of the pub
any rate be fixed by legislative au-
thority below the cost of furnishing
the service. Such a contention would
be contrary to the fundamental pur-
poses of the public power. And view
ing the situation from the standpoint
II the public it can have no interest
which ought to compel a carrier to
furnish certain classes of service at
