GOOD SHOWING IN
FACE OF BIG ODDS
Fourth Congressional District Is
battle-ground of Stirring
Contest.
lFrom a Staff Correspondent

PRINCETON, Nov. 15.-Despite the
fact thai Ira w. Wood was victorious
in the congressional fight in the Fourth
district over Professor William A. Lib
hey, there are many features Of the
campaign noteworthy and ~encourag-
ing.
Both these gentlemen are graduates
of Princeton, class of IT, and there was
the keenest interest shown here in the
outcome of the battle which these two
Princetonians waged. Professor Libbey
was an amateur in the political game,
while Congressman Wood was an ex-
perienced campaigner, who had a ma
chine and a patronage to support him.
Libbey, when nominated, was gener-
ally thought to be the leader Of the
forlorn hope, and the lack of faith
among the rank and file of the party in
the opening weeks of the campaign
was the cause of final defeat at the
polls.
Makes Good showing.
How well Colonel Libbey succeeded is
known all over his State. For some
time election night and the following
morning Libbey was returned as the
victor, but the final reckoning gave
Wood a majority of 252, which was OBJ
tanned through the illiterate negro vote
of Mercer county. Libbey made good
in his effort to educate the voters of
the Fourth district, and his campaign
was one of the brightest spots of the
recent fight in this State. Any candi-
date whose efforts can change 6,457
votes within five weeks must be

Early in the campaign Mr.. Libbey
said that he would make his appeal to
the intelligence of his audiences. He
devoted his energies to the tariff and
showed the f~allacies of the ubiquitous
Payne-Aldrich bill.
On all sides here at Princeton, among
the university circles as we'll as those
in the town, "Bilr' Libbey's great show

Tariff His Theme.
Libbey began on the tariff, continued
on the tariff, and ended on the tariff.
For four weeks he hammered away
along that line. Through newspaper
articles and interviews, through the
circulation Of instructive literature and
through speeches, criticised by some,
as practically null and void, because of
an array of dry figures and statistics,
Libbey battered down that great ma
jority in a s~tand-pat district.
Libbey charged Wood with being a
party to the scandal in tariff-making.
Woods pensions, garden seeds and re-
nunciation of Cannon at the eleventh
hour, were unable to save him from
the results of the bestirring of the in
telligence of the voters. His narrow

Rev. J. Skinner Dead.

This beloved octagenarian Bap-
fist minister, who has for over 90
years preached the gospel of the
Kingdom throughout Tishomingo
and in adjoining counties, passed
to his reward yesterday, at his
home 10 miles north of Iuka. For
months he lay in the grasp of the
overwhelmingly painful and incura-
BILE disease of cancer. He bore his
suffering with Christian fortitude
because he had unwavering faith.
He built for himself a grand struc-
ture of character yet he worked
without earthly reward. He died

grand old soldier of the cross for
our next issue.

Very little as to the Lake-Goodwln contest for the Republican Guberna- torial nomination, is heard Of late There is almost complete silence. IT the rivals are doing aught. their WoriS is of the sub-surface kind Atten- ton is concentrated upon the Bulke- leyIMcLean Senatorial contest. and 1t is fairly evident that the Lake forces support Bulkeley. while the Goodwin men favor Mclean.
 But, the State convention will come before the State Senatorial conventions and the town caucuses- That Is. the candidate for Governor will be named before the nominations for State Sen ators and Representatives are made. The success of Lake would be inter- preted as meaning the reelection or Senator Bulkeley: that of Goodwin would be considered as indicating the choice of Mclean.
 Ordinarily. tllis situation would re- ceive wide consideration, but now it seems to be neglected. which is only intelligible upon the theory that Bull Kelley work serves also for Lake, while Mclean endeavors operate for Good win.
