Gordon Denies Interview.

Jackson, Miss, Aug. 19. Sen
ator James Gordon says the in
terview" charged to him by some
of the papers of the State, nota-
bly, the Vicksburg Post, in which
he was made to endorse the ac-
ton of Governor Patterson of
Tennessee, in pardoning Col.
Cooper for the killing of ex-Sen-
ator Carmack, was altogether
mythical so far as he was con-
.cerned. That he authorized no
such statement, and gave out no
such interview. 1t was altogeth-
er the creation of the brain of
someone who probably had moth
ing more to write about and had
been made much of by those who
were disposed to criticise the
Governor for appointing him to a
trusteeship on one of the college
boards.
Senator Gordon finds enough
to do at home without meddling
in the politics of another State
and is not giving out interviews
Just for the sake of talking.
The Governor in making the ap-
pointment proba bly, never
thought of the interview that had
been credited to Senator Gordon
and now that it has been denied
by the Senator he cannot be
charged with endorsing the Pat
terson administration by appoint
ing the man who had endorsed
pardon of Cooper.

TION OF ORDER NOTIFY BILLS OF

ern Railway Company in an in

"The management of the

ognizes the great commercial inn
portance OF this subject, and will
do all that it properly can to pro-
mote confidence In the markets
of the world in its bills of lading.
It is believed that the effective
enforcement of certain business
precautions will go far to satisfy
any doubt which now exists as a
result of certain alleged manipu-
lation by shippers of order notify
bills of lading for export cotton
last season. for which the rail
ways were in no way response
BILE.
'The system of issuing such
bills of lading was the subject of
a special conference between the
carriers and bankers. AS a re-
suit of this conference, which
was held at White Sulphur
Springs, w. Va, on the 10Th
ultimo, the Southern Railway
will arrange, beginning on Sept.
1, 1910, to make effective the
safeguards surrounding the is
sue of order notify bills of lading
which were then agreed upon. |
Among other things agreed upon
tending to improve the system of
issuing order notify bills of lading
for export cotton, these regula |
tions provide for a bill Of lading /
certificate which will /
be signed and attached, on be-
half of the railway company by /
a validation officer, to each order
notify bill of lading for export
cotton issued by agents of the
company authorized to issue such
bills of lading. Each validation
certificate will set forth that the
agent who signed the bill of lad
ing is the regularly appointed
agent of the company, and, as
such, is authorized to sign bills of
aiding in accordance with the
of the company. and
hat the signature on the attach
ed order notify bill of lading is
1is signature. The certificate
will be irremovably attached to
he bill of lading covered by it, i
md, as an additional safeguard,
he bill of lading, in addition to
is own number, will bear the
of the certificate issued
n connection with it. Agents
will be instructed not to sign
bills of lading until the cotton is
n the possession of the railway

vARDAMAN FAILED
To KEEP DATE
ALARGE CROWD
PERCY. ALEXANDER AND BREWER SPOKE
AT GOURTYFAIR IN RESHOBA COUNTY
THURSDAY

Philadelphia. Mrs. Aug. 49,
About 5000 people gathered at
the Neshoba County Fair today
to hear the address of Hon. Earle
Brewer. candidate for governor,
and Hons. Leroy Percy and c.
Ii. Alexander, opposing candi-
dates for the United States SEN
ate. 1t was expected that Maj.
Vardaman would be there to dis
cuss the issues of the coming
campaign in joint debate with
the other candidates, he having
accepted the invitation extended
him by the committee. How
ever. he failed to materialize as
the hour for the speaking drew
nigh, greatly to the disappoint-
ment of the people assembled
with the expectation of hearing
a joint debate between all of the
candidates.
About 10 O'Clock Earl Brewer
was introduced and in his mas
terful and eloquent way deliver
ed an address on patriotic citi-
zenship.
Hon. G. H. Alexander was the
next speaker. He discussed the |
several planks in the Democratic
platform and stated that it SEEM
ed as if the vital questions in the
Democratic party had reduced
themselves to a corporation ques-
ton. His address was we'll re-
ceived.
The last candidate to address
this large audience was the dis
junior senator from
Mississippi, Hon. Leroy Percy.
More interest seemed to be CEN
Lererd in his speech than in that
Of any candidate present. Percy
defined his position clearly on all
the important issues of the day
and demonstrated that his views
we're strictly in keeping with the
IDEAS set out in the Democratic
platform. He laid his claims be-
fore the people in the most clear
and concise way, and showed
herein that the slanderous ac-
made against him by
he followers of the big white
thief were more of a bluff. in
ended to deceive and to appeal
o the fancy of the people.
The thing that brought rounds
If thunderous applause from the
audience was his explanation of
he famous so-called secret eau
us. His words were a revelation
o many of those present, who
we're laboring under a misappre-
tension as to what the secret
aucus was and how it was con-
Iucted at Jackson. In other
words, he threw a ray of sun
hine and brought to the light of
ay a few facts concerning this
aucus, which was very pleasing
0 his hearers, who often inter-
upted him with applause. Mr..
'ercy made many new friends :
ere today. and brought to light
acts that have hitherto been
idden in darkness. Commercial
