FRIEND SHIP.
D. Ulrich in Times-Democrat,

], D. U1rich in Times Democrat,
Friendship is one Of Life's
most precious treasures, alike to
us all, a rare jewel found among
the rocks, while journeying over
Life's toughest roadWays.
A wild rose budding or bloom
ing amid thorns and entangling
vines, growing along Life's hill
ly pathways.
A running brook of clear, cool
water, winding it's way down the
mountain-side to moisten and
freshen dry and desert places in
Life's dreary plain, or cheering
and comforting the weary way
farer, while taking rest and re-
freshment in some of Lies Sc
cluded and shaded byways.
A cozy cottage, nestled and
sheltered in a quite nook, u some
where to retreat from the
storms and struggles of life.
A soft pillow, and some peace
full place to fall asleep. and drift
for a while from work and wor-
ry into Dreamland's dazzling
realm of Fancy, where fairies
fan our feverish brows with
silken robes as they dance about
US in the balmy night,
A forest-bordered harbor to
anchor in, away from the surg
ing pillows and tempest toosed
waves of Adversely.
Friendship is born Of human
experience, nurtured by human
nature, given new life constantly
and continually by a everything
and bubbling fountain of human
activity.
Guarded by all that is good
and grand, kindled with kind
ness, strengthened by sympa-
thy, rendered enduring by 10y
atty, truth and virtue.
Rewarded by a Divine Provi-
dence, and prompted by a mil
lion agencies, which are develop
oped by the heart, the head and
the hand in noble deeds done
under the direction Of a clear
conscience, and kept aglow by
pure and lofty sentiment.

Hon. A. T. Dent the Next Dis
trict Attorney.

The people Of NoXubee County
were very much surprised to hear
that Gov. Noel declined to ap
point Honorable a. T. Dent Cir
cult Judge of the Sixteenth Judi
cial District. 1t was generally
co Iceded, up until the Governor
made the selection of t. B. Car
roll Of Oktibbeha county, that
Mr.. Dent had the best chance to
secure the appointment, but for
some reason the governor declin-
ed, at the last moment, to appoint
Mr.. Dent as Circuit Judge, and
thereupOn rendered him the ap-
pOintment of district attorney.
The appointment of District At
torney came as a right sharp sur
prise both to MIR. Dent and his
friends, and the impression pre-
vailed, at first, that Mr.. Dent
WOulu uCCIllIC w dCOCpO ClIlo 1hC
ter position, but such impression
was without foundation; Mr.
Dent accepted the commission of
the District AttOrneyship, and
qualified on Wednesday morning
before Chancery Clerk j. A. Ty-
son, and has assumed the duties
incident to this position, and will
continue to fill this position under
this appointment up until Janua-
ry 1st. 1912.
While it is not generally known,
still it is announced as a fact by
the friends of Mr.. Dent, that he
will be candidate to succeed
himself in the general primaries
of 1911, for the four years coming.
While NOXubee county expect
ed to land the Judgeship of this
district, and we are very much
disappointed that we did not Sc
cure the same, still the appoint
ment of Mr.. Dent to the district
attOrneyship is q matter of great
satisfaction to the people of NOX-
ubee county. Mr.. Dent has spent
the best part of his life in this
county, and he is a splendid law
yer, and magnificent advo
cate, and is made out Of just such
material that great prosecuting
attorneys are made of. We fee
safe in making the prophecy, that
with Mr.. Dent as our district at
torney, he will prove a terror tC
law breakers and evil dOerS.
