Bilbo-Dulaney bribery case until eley-

morning session being devoted to
routine business.
The probing thus far has been
featureless. A majority of witnesses
brought before the body being citi-
zens of Poplarville, Senator Bilbo's
home town, who gave testimony COM
mending his moral character and rep
utation in that community.
Outside of the senate chamber the
contending factions were exceedingly
busy. Mr.. Dulaney and his attorney,
Ben Fl. Wells, were on hand early
and held conferences with Senators
Leftwich and Anderson, counsel for
the Senate, relative to evidence to be
presented when Bilbo has finished
with the introduction of the corrobo-
rative witnesses.
Sergeant-at-Arms Mcdonnell was
furnished with another large batch of
witness subpoenas, among the parties
being half dozen mem
bers of the lower house. A large
of subpoenas were issued in
Mr.. Dulaney's behalf today which in
dicates that extensive evidence will
be forthcoming next week.

Strange BedfeIlows.

While the present situation is one
to be deplored the reason for it is
obvious to every observant mind. 1t
has all grown out of the political op-
position and personal hate felt and
manifeted toward one man. That man
is James X. Vardaman Those who
make UP the rank and file of the op-
position to this man are giving to the
world one of the strangest political
combinations known to history. 1t is
made up of some of the best men I
have ever known. Men whose pat
riotism and whose piety cannot be
doubted. Along with these is a class
OF pothouse politicians and whiskey
guzzlers who know that the election
OF Vardaman to any office means that
all the weight of the office and the
man will be used for the destruction
OF their trade" Strange bedfellows.
