Assistant Secretary of State Leo
Meyer, who has well fitted himself by
his subordinate service for secretary
of state is a candidate for that place
and the general belief here is that he
will win, although Ben Harrison Of

legislatures and a lieutenant of Bill
Murray's is contesting in the primaries
with him.
State Inspector and Examiner c. A.

Senator Landrum. of Tahlequah is un-
derstood here to still be in the races
but little is heard of his candidacy.
Insurance Commissioner Milas Las
ater is thought to have offended the
Oklahoma City crowd by working
against the removal of the capital be-
fore 1918, but the fact that he was a
member of the constitutional conven-
tion that accepted the enabling act and
feels himself bound thereby will pre-
vent this prejudice spreading far.
There are half dozen candidates
against him, which is considerably in
his favor. Another thing in his favor
lis the high ability which he and his
predecessor T. J. McComb have ad.
ministered the affairs of the insur-
ance department. having made it a
300 per cent greater revenue producer
than any other state department The
office is now making the state $780,

jorities ever given any candidate.
Charles Daugherty, state labor com

OVATION TO GEN. SCOTT.
Mississippian Arouses enthusiasm in
Confederate Parade.

Dispatch in Commercial Appeal.
Dated from Mobile, Ala, April 20
The following from the Mobile
Register will be of peculiar interest
to Mississippians:
1.-THE camp from Richmond, Va,
turned out as many men in the Con-
federate parade as the local camps,
and their appearance was the subject
of favorable comment. The Virgin
ians were loudly cheered at all
points. Sixty mounted members
of Forests cavalry followed the Vir-
ginians, and they made fine appear
ance. AS veteran horsemen they
handled their mounts so as to show
off the squadron to tn, best advan-
tage. Gen. Charles Scott of Rose
dale, Miss, who was with the body
of cavalry and one of the most popu-
lar men in the state, was given a tre-
mendous ovation along the line oil
March, Mississippians in the crowd
being especially demonstrative.

The pulpit of the Baptist chuach
in Leakesville was filled Sunday and
Sunday night by two preachers of
that persuasion from Bay Springs,
namely: Moore and Chapman. Moore
had the morning service and used
the subject of Specification. 1t was
easy to discern that he belongs to
what's called the Gradual Grow
thists," with reference TO that Bible
doctrine. While differing with him we
appreciate his plainness for we have
seen some ministers who seem to be
opionless on this theological subject
if the absence of public expression
is to be taken as a criterion for their
views.
