the 18th of March issue our annual
Easter number.
Every progressive newspaper man

Nebraska is about the only state
in the Union that owns as chronic
a candidate as Mississippi. Out on
the Nebraska plains is the home
of the eVer-ready-to-run William
Jennings Bryan, but even he at the
zenith of his career as a candidate
cannot eclipse the efforts Of Var.
damania to g~alvanize the political
corpse of Ex-Governor JAS. K. Var
daman, of Mississippi. Both OF
these men are chronic candidates,
and no amount of applications OF
injections can cure their itch fol
Office.
In the many rhetorical jamborees
made by the Ex-Governor, not a one
fails to make his grandiloquent as.
sertion, that "it is the sole and only
ambition of my life to serve my PEG
ple," with his regular enclitic, God
Bless You tagged onto it. Sober.
minded people take everything he
says, on political matters, cum
grano sails.
But we think that the rights OF
the voters should be taken into con.
sideration before they can seriously
consider his future political aspira.
lions. He should disprove the tes-
timony offered to show that he would
be an unsafe agent for Mississippi
in the United States Senate. Since
the action of the recent caucus, sew
eral charges have been preferred
against him, and figures and facts
have been presented from official
records. If proper explanation car
be given they will be cheerfully re-
ceived. But until then we fail te
see how he "can wrap the draperies
of his couch about him and lie dow1
to pleasant Dreams" or hopes of any
serious consideration at the hands
of Mississippi voters.
But, nevertheless, with his char.
acteristic brazen egotism, foolishly
harboring the presumption hat h
is the peoples choice, he will be
candidate as long as elections ar
held. The only thing for which W,
can hope during the present impo
sition of his future political aspira
tons is that in the next election
the scientists of conservatism viii
inject such a heavy dose of Percy
verance that the Vardamania will b.
recognized by even the most rad
ical as a political nuisance tina
must be abated.

EX-SENATOR JAMES GORDON.

Ex-senator James Gordon, OF
Mississippi has returned to his
home to take up the peaceful du-
ties of citizenship again. His brief
service to his State has been bril-,
liantly concluded. A world of un.
conscious good has been accom-
plished through this diplomatic ap-
pointment by Governor Noel.
During his brief sojourn in Wash
ington Col. Gordon has enjoyed
more c%ourtesies than any other Sen.
ator. The press of the country has
been solicitous about this unique
figure in public life. Col. Gordon
lives by a creed which not only
makes his personality interesting,
but makes friends and few enemies
The greatest value to the South
is the impression he created among
the people who have not been
friendly to this section. He indi
Gated IN his own conduct that the
old barriers, which so long stood
between the South and greater
prosperity, have been banished. h

conservative state, maintaining Mis-.

Mississippi has never 9 a de-
feat taken to heart, with such poor
grace, with such loud ~mutterings by
partisans as that administer to Var
daman by Percy. Many Vardaman-

saying wild, irrational and absurd
things that are not borne out by
facts.

Says the Baltimore News. "A
gentleman by the name of Percy has

from Mississippi. While Percy is
an entirely unknown quantity in

knowledge Of Vardaman permits US

 If you are going to lose money ss- feet as good place to loose it. This is the advice of Frank Clark, con stable, and John Igo, city marshal of Douglas. Both of them have had ex- periencs in this line in the past two days and both can speak feelingly.
 Yesterday was a bad day for Con- stable Frank Clark and yet he got on better than was to be expected. He laid down a new and fine re- volver and left it On his return it was gone. Later he dropped a s20 bill, but it so happened that this oe- cured in the court room, was found by Judge Rice and returned to Clark this morning, much to his relief. But the gun is still missing
 This morning John Igo was josh ing and joking Clark, insisted he needed keeper, but his fun was short lived for he had an ex- perience of his own that made him admit there are others" Igo went into the Copper Queen store to pay a bill shortly before noon today and af. ter making payment thought" he had showed his 'roll' back in his pocket.
