Business and Party Questions.

"The questions which confront our
representatives and senators are in
the main business questions. There
are, it is true, the great party ques-
tons; tariff for revenue only, a rev.
enue collected in part by an income
tax if the states will so authorize
the general government; honesty,
economy and retrenchment in the ad-
ministration of the affairs of the gov
eminent. These are the party ques-
lions upon hich all Democrats stand
together and fight the battle of the
people for good government as they
understand it. But in addition to the
party questions which may arise, your
senator is confronted by number of
practical questions, for this general
government of ours comes a great
deal closer to us in our daily lives
than we sometimes realize"

Told of the Caucus.

my fellow citizens, am going to
talk to you bit about the caucus
that was held in Jackson. am going
to talk about 1t, first, because mis-
representation in regard to 1t has
been statewide, and second, because
l hold my commission from that
caucus, and if it was secured by any
unfair or dishonest methods instead
of being here pleading with you for
reelection | should be driven from
public life and to prison cell. For
l hold that while punishment should
follow crime whether the criminal be
high or low, rich or poor, yet where
the wrong-doer holds high place that
punishment should follow swifter and
more certain.
Again, it is clear that | should
not be reelected if dishonest eau
Gus was held, it is equally clear that
if any candidate falsely charges that
caucus to have been dishonest, he is
unworthy of holding office at the
hands of the people of Mississippi.
'The suggestion for a caucus came
from the legislature. Every candi.
date for United States Senate favored
it.

Cotton Futures.

In detail the speaker handled the
much discussed subject of gambling
in cotton futures. He told of the bull
clique of lest spring and the action
of the government helping the bear
combine. He concluded by calling
attention to his denunciation of gam
bling in futures on the floor Of the
senate. Senator Percy gave in detail
the methods USED by the bear cliques
which had worked such havoc for
southern cotton planters.

other Important Matters.

"Then there is the River and Har-
for the cleaning out of your rivers and
the deepening of your harbors, fur
nishing natural competition with the
great transportation lines of the
country, calling each session for
thought and attention at the hands of
your senators.
These will serve to illustrate the
practical nature of the questions
which confront your senators. They
are questions not requiring much ora
tory, skill in defamation is of little
service and knowledge of poetry none
in the solution of them.
But they do require business train
ing, industry and tact, the qualities
that are necessary to the successful
solution of the other problems of life,
and | believe that my own ownership
Of land and business training in a
measure have fitted me to efficiently
represent the people of Mississippi in
regard to such questions, and that
at the end of my three year service
in the Senate, with the influence in
the Senate acquired by personal ac-
quaintance, with favorable assign
ments on senatorial committees, with
the greater familiarity with govern
ment matters, would be better fitted
to represent the interest of the peo-
pie of Mississippi than I am today,
and better fitted than any new man
would be then"

he had accumulated wealth through
retainer fees from the whiskey trust.

Philosophy OF Scandal, and Thoughts
on Love He denounced 1t as in
decent literature. He cited this as
Vardaman's idea as to how the United
States Senate should be handled.
Reading from the paper he quoted
an extract referring to himself. Then
followed merciless flow of ridicule,
so mercilessly directed against Major
Vardaman as to arouse hearty ap-
plause at times. The imaginary
scene of Major Vardaman in the Sen
ate, as portrayed by the speaker, was
a clever piece Of satire and irony.

"A NERVOUS Wreck"

my daughter is rapidly becoming a
nervous wreck" said an anxious faith
err to friend who happened to be a
druggist-"she has no appetite, is run
down, weak, takes no interest in any
thing, and we cannot find anything
that helps her."
why don't you give her Who'll?
said the druggist-'it is not a secret
nostrum, just simple and delicious
cod liver and iron tonic-and the best
strength creator and general all round
tonic we have ever sold in our store.
Take bottle home and try it. Well
return your money If 1t does not help
her."
Within ten days the father came
back for another bottle of Vinol, say
ing that he had never seen such a
change in a girl in his life, and he
felt sure one more bottle of Vinol
would restore her to her normal con.
dition.''
Such cases as the above are con
stantly coming to our attention, and
we ask every rundown, nervous, de
bilitated, aged or weak person in this
vicinity, and every person suffering
from chronic cough, cold. or bronchi
al trouble to try bottle of vinol on
the same terms as above. Hays

BOOSTING CONNECTICUT.

0OOo ING VONNeObbVOIs
In New York and Connecticut a def.
mite movement is already afoot looking
to q systematic advertising Of the mer
its Of farm lands in the two states, fol.
lowing several years of exploitation Of
the lands in the far south and west.
The new move would seem to have
much to commend 1t. for not only can
much of the land In these two and 9TH
er New England states be handled
more advantageOusly than at present,
but much which has deteriorated may
be restored by proper agricultural
methods. Besides this, the territory re-
ferred to is traversed with q network
Of trolley lines, which means ease of
transportation and accessibility to mar
kets which are always good. In Con-
necticut the campaign Of exploitation
has been undertaken by the State Po-
biological society, and in the literature
sent out are cited the facts that there
are only three states In the Union with
Q denser population than Connecticut,
that there are twenty-one miles of rail-
roads to every 100 square miles Of ter.
ritory and that the average farm is but
two miles and . half from q railroad
station. that the Nutmeg State pro
duces more corn per acre than any 9th
er state in the Union, stands fifth in
number Of dairy cows per area and
that the Baldwin apple and Old Biddy
form q combination that are bound to
win in the Connecticut hills. This is
certainly q wise policy. and in view OF
the tremendous migration to the far
south, west and north it would seem
high time that other states which have
substantial advantages in q home and
agricultural way were making the fact
known In an emphatic and definite
manner.
