SPEAKER STREET DEFENDS
VARDEMAN.

Under the leadership Of the Jack.

other defenders of secret ballot for
members of the Legislature, and Gibbs
Infamous resolution, have been attack.
ing Ex-Governor Vardaman for his
disposition of the contingent fund,
alleging that itemized reports had moi
been made, etc.
The Ex-Governor asserts that all Of
the contingent fund handled by him
was honestly and faithfully expended,
and his real friends Composing a
large majority Of the people of MIS-
sissippi) have full confidence in his
integrity, no matter what the Percy
organs say.
We believe some portion OF the con-
tingent fund was expended by Gov
ernor Vardaman at the time an un-
known negro committed rape on a
young white lady at jackson, and
when the Governor, by his admirable
courage and respect for law, prevent
ed a lvnching, Perhaps no item
lied statement of this expenditure was
sent in, nevertheless the money was
expended.
1t also appears that Ex-Governor
Vardaman failed to temize an expen-
diture of $4,000 for the relief of the
sufferers from the terrible cyclone at
Meridian in March, 1906. Speaker
Street (who is no doubt Supremacy
disguised with the methods employed
to defeat Vardaman in the secret bal.
lot caucus. and the attacks now being
made upon the ex-Governor) puts a
quietus upon the criticism Of failure
to report the Meridian expenditure.

signed statement yesterday:

promptly. Unless you pay all, or part,
your name will be erased from our
