THE CONTEST IS APPRECIATED.

The Commercials big diamond contest has met
with flatering reception at the hands of the peo-
pie of LOwndes County. The list OF candidates pub
lished today shows that the most popular of the
many young ladies have been nominated to represent
the different communities The names of the young
men include the most ambitious and deserving and
that they will acqut themselves with credit goes
without saying.
The prizes, which are costly and attractive, are
now exhibition at the jewelry stores of ROmbach
Bros. and Buder Bros These prizes will be given
away by the Commercial, without the assistance of
merchants or others. The Commercial pays the en-
tire cost and the prizes will be awarded for work
performed by the ladies and gentlemen themselves.
The Commercial has considered and rejected
several contest propositions involving arrange
ments with some local merchants The idea of
asking the several houses to assist the paper in its
undertaking did not present itself as desirable or
practical from any point of view Experience has
demonstrated that such plans develop hard feelings
between merchants VINO participate in them and
those-who do not, and strife of that kind Is not
calculated to foster a community spirit such as
Columbus needs and must have in order to measure
up to her possibilities.

Between $50 and 7:3O o'clock Halley's comet
can be seen in the West with the of ordi-
nary field glass. To find it, watch the sun disap-
pear and look directly over it. In a few days
more it will be visible to the eye and may be
watched without the use of glass.
Several photographs have been made in Cam
bridge. Mass, telescope lens being used for the
purpose.
By the middle of April the stranger will be in
plain view. The HALEY comet is not wanderer.
1t is not an astral vagrant like the little comet of
few weeks ago 1t travels in a chartered orbit and
can be followed in its regular journey about the
sun.
This will be the most important visitor in the
heavens this year. Astronomers all ever the
country, have been awaiting its arrival Much
speculation is being INDUCED in to the effect it
will have on climatic conditions. The earth will,
according to scientists, pass through the nebulous
tail of the traveller. Therefore the world awaits
in speculative interest. When it makes its ira
verse of the sun it will have attained its maximum
brilliancy. That will be on May 18. It will be
visible, however all through April and May, and
should, if these chronicers of the skies to be
relied upon, be brilliant spectacle. 1t is also in
teresting to know that when the comet is nearest
the earth we will be exactly Ia. 900 900 miles from
the body of it.-Commercial Appeal.

CHARGES MADE BY vARDAmAn.

The following from the Jackson News will be
interesting to some of our readers:
''Ex-Gov. ]. K Vardaman knew, when he
made his sensational insinuations and innuendoes
at the Century theatre on the night of February
"a that he had been fairly and honestly defeated,
and that no corrupt methods of any kind were
used to secure the election of Hon. Leroy Percy.
James K. Vardaman knew this because he
knows that Leroy Percy is a man of high honor.
lofty principles, and unim peachable integrity and
that he would not stOop to such methods to secure
any Office.
The insinuation made in the Century theatre
speech was simply bit of political four-fushing,
fiimsy effort to bolster up dying cause, to de-
lude ignorant and simple-minded people into the
belief that he had been unfairly treated and thus
awaken their sympathy.
1T is but natural that these 1imsy utterance s
should arouse keen resentment throughout the
state, and bring forth an instant demand that ex-
Gov. Vardaman and his followers make good their
assertions tender apology.
''Thus far neither an explanation or an apollo
gy has been offered, and the Daily News predicts
that neither will be offered.
''Vardaman hopes to bluff his way out of it, as
he has bluffed his way out of past predicaments,
but he is going to find that in the future every
time he makes political bluff he will be promptly
called. ana that the people of Mississippi expect of
him the same character of personal responsibility
that is exacted from every other citizen
The campaign of 1911 will be fought on hard
facts not f1imsy fancies or wild imagings, and it
must be admitted by every fair-minded man that
the Vardanan faction has made very poor begin
ming. The Century theatre speech has already
proven boomerang that has cost Vardaman thous-
ands of votes and alienated from his support many
men who previously believed that he at least had
the mental stability to stick to his assertions and
make an effort to prove them.'
