Hon. Charlton III. Alexander
has announced himself a candi-
date for the United States Senate
in the primary of 1911. His let
ter constituting his declaration of
principles is a strong paper, well
WOrded and convincing and states
man7like.
NJ. Alexander has achieved a
state large reputation as a lawyer
of commanding ability and a man
of the highest private character.
He has never held or striven,
before, for public Office, but has
taken a prominent part on several
political questions and his name
and reputation is well known
throughout the state. In the
senatorial fight he is a factor to
be reckOned with.

Senator Percy will speak at
the Lauderdale meeting despite
the fact that Bilbo, too, is to
speak. 1t was an awkward di-
lemma he was placed in by the
committee, and however dis
tasteful it may be to him to be
placed, as it were, on an equality
with BiIbo, he very correctly
acquisced in the plans of his
hosts, as a guest should do. The
committee, however, is much
censured and justly SO, for caus-
ing SO embarrassing a situation.
Even so out spoken a Vardaman
supporter as Hon. E. D. Cavett
is quoted as condemning the
committee for practically forcing
a man like Senator Percy to eth
er meet Bilbo on the same plat
form or be discourteous to a
large number of citizens, and
this opinion is general.
There is no doubt that Bilbo is
an attraction" just as a nang-
ing or the exhibition of a human
tarantular is an "attraction'',
and many will attend meetings
where he is4to appear. from the
curiosity that such attractions
arouse. But the exploitation
and exhibition of Bilbo is at the
expense of the honor and digni-
ty of the State of Mississippi.
it is like one making profit from
his own shame. The sooner that
Bilbo and his doings and sayings
are buried in obScurity the bet
ter, and more decent will the
political situation become.

Prince has long been CONSPICUOUS
in his life in Noxubee County, and
few men have stood SO high in the

the people of the county. His
distinguished career in the army
and his high and valuable services
as a citizen and public servant as
we'll as the honor and kindness
that marked his daily life at all
times, all combined to lift him to a
high place in the hearts and minds
of all. The sympathetic sketch
of his life was written by a brother

COTTON DECLINES
 16 ID 29 PO|NT IS Bear Pressure Is Exerted With
 Telling Effect CLOSE AT LOWEST POINT There Appears to Be Rapid Distribu- tion of Cotton Held In the Large
 Cities But This Fails to
 Keep Prices Up.
CLOSE AT LOWEST POINT

New York, January 2s.--Southern selling orders encouraged renewal of local bear pressure :n the cotton market during today's late trading and prices had sharp break from the clos ing figures of last night with the close easy at net decline of 16 to29 points.
 The opening was easy at a decline Of points on January and of 10 to
 IT points on the general list in re-
 sponse to disapp pointing cables. Local
 professionals considered that the bull ish week end figures had been dis counted by the advance of Friday, but
 there was some trade support and a little covering based on the statistical
 position and larger spots sales in the
 Liverpool market, which served to
 absorb offerings at about the initial
 figures during the first few minutes.
 There was. however, no sign of ag-
 gressiive bull support and later in the
 morning selling orders from southern
 sources evidently created an appre-
 hensfon that the interior spot sitpation
 might be weakening, or that the south
 was going short on prospects of big
 new crop acreage this spring. At any
 rate the southern selling was followed by greater confluence in the sh ort side among local professionals, offerings be- came more general, stop loss orders were uncovered and the market broke sharply with March contracts selling off to 14.21 and May to 1433.
 The close was at the lowest level of the day and about s1 to ss points be-
 low the high point reached yesterday. Private cables attributed the larger spot sales in the Liverpool market to
 end of the month fixing" and geenrally speaking there seems to be rather d rapid distribution going forward of | cotton held in the visible supply at the various large centers or accumulafion. Another thousand bales were exported from the local stock today and 1t ap- ] pears that a good deal of the hedged cotton purchased by mills during the recent sensational decline Is now be- ing shipped out.
 Southern spot markets officially re- ported early were unchanged to Iso higher, but 1t was expected that the larger markets later in the day would
 make less satisfactory showing. Receipts at the ports today, S5,000, against s95s last week, and 5l,9S7 last year. For the week, 100000 bales, against 113,o02 last week, and 263,527 last year. Today's receipts at New Or leans, 216e bales. against 13,413 last year. and at Houston, s257, against b94S last year.

DlCkENSlAN INDIGNANT FIMl Over American Scheme To Buy Old
 Curiosity Shop.

London, January 2s.-(special. .)-Ths "Dickensian," journal given up to the cult of Charles Dickens, Is getting in dignant over the American scheme to pur- chase the building at the corner of Lin coln's Inn Fields, which has been known for many years as ''The Old Curiosity Shop" It Is stated that the old shop, although doubtless very interesting as a piece of old London, is not what 1t Is rep resented to be and there are very grave doubts as to whether 1t is Dickens landmark at all. In fact, there are many circumstances which arc dead against inc shop being over remotely connected with the famous "Old Curiosity Shop" The same may be said of the "Old Che- shire Cheese" in Fleet street. which is annually visited by hundreds of Ameri- cans. who fondly believe that 1t was the fayorite tavern of Dr. Johnson, whereas there never has been the slightest evil dence to show that the tavern was even in existence during the famous long distance takers. lifetime

WHEAT Is HIGHER
 0N GOOD DEMAND Bears Try to Drive Values Down But Without Success MARKET CLOSES STRONG Bears Have the Best of the Arqume nj In the Corn Market and Prices DecIine-Oats and Provisions
 Close Lower.
By J. p. PRfTcHARp.

Chicago, January 29.-(Special )-After carefully going over the three spring wheat states one of the most reliable grain houses in the. northwest volun- teers the opinion that not more than 25 per cent of last years crop is still in first hands. This, in part. accounts for the ready absorption of the big receipts at Minneapolis and Duluth, which totaled nearly 5000 cars last week and more than double the run of last year.
 The big millers and elevator people Of the spring wheat country understand that all wheat will be needed before another crop can be marketed
 The wheat market was A 10 A cent ,,p today. The bears attempted to drive values down. There was an early small dip, but this was followed by a quick reaction and rally, when tho best prices of the day were reached.
 Weekend profit takings by longs caused a fractional recession. but the day end ed strong.
 The bears fin corn secured an inning today. Prices closed fractonally lower for the day and the underciIrrent points to further losses the coming week. The news was mainly bearish- There were many reports of the elevators being chock full and the railways unable to move the grain
 Oats ruled within a narrow range. with elevator interests la1ge buyers of May and sellers of July. Commission houses took May also. Cash ruled Lc to Mc lower and shipping demand poor.
 Provisions developed an easy tone and closed lower. One of tho largest local packers was credited witi fairly liberal sales of lard and orders from the out side were mostly to sell.

points on the old crop months and sS points on October. Bears were most az gressive early in the week when they put prices over half cent under last weeks closing. There was nothing sem satational in the trading of the week and the bears had much their own way except at times, when the market appeared over-sold. Bulls were passive and the chief support of the market st all times was the spot demand which was strong and was met by very light offerings On Friday the highest prices of the week were reached, the active months to points over last weeks closing. This advance was due to short covering more than anything else. The buying of covers was induced by the very small amount of cotton being brought Into sight.
 Spots closed at 147sc as compared with 1oo last week, and 91zc this week last year. Sales on the spot amounted to 2651 bales against 9s9 last week and 2s25 last year; sales to arrive amounted to 10o7 bales against 2o50 last week and 2325 last year.

Hubbard Bros. 6 Co.'s Letter.

New York, January 29.-(Speoial.)-A de- cline in New Orleans last evening started a report in Europe that the holders of spots in the south were becoming uneasy at the absence of demand for the un- hedged cotton, and therefore there would be a pressure to sell. The lower market in Liverpool led to further selling by local traders who were long last evening and by Wall street houses, who have become bearish.
 On the decline spot houses were slow buyers as the movement of the crop Is on so small scale as to create anxiety among conservative merchants as to the ability of the mills to continue to run on even the present reduced scale.
 Advices from Bombay state that re- duced crop estimates are becoming cur rent.
 Liverpool should be to points lower with the trade here bearish
