S PRING TIME
Dedicated to ANNA MARION NoCAwLrY.

The bright spring time has come again
With its blossoms fair and gay;
The merry birds the wing
Singing their roundelay.
All nature joins in the refrain:
Spring time, spring time has come sgain;
Spring time, spring time has come again.
The bright spring time has come again
With its soft refreshing showers
And sparkling dew drops like glad tears
Scattered upon the flowers;
So once more sing the gadsome strain:
Spring time, spring time has come again;
Spring time, spring time has come again -
The bright spring time has come again
With its voice from heaven to cheer ..4
The weary hearts that have grown sad
And dropped for many year.
Then let no thought of care remain
Spring time, spring time has come again;
Spring time, spring time has come again.

NEWS FROM
WASHINGTON

For several days there were mo.
mentous proceedings in the loweo
House of Congress in Washington
To explain the political situation and
the parliamentary processes with all
that led up to them and with the re-
suits they have foreshadowed would
require more than the space of this
letter. Suffice it to say that the com
bination Of Democrats and insurgeut
Republicans that have long been an
t4gonistic to the rule Of Speaker Can
and the regulars, as his Republican
supporters are called, have success
fully combined TO form majority in
the House of Representatives. This
majority demanded thru Congress
man Norris of Nebraska new com.
mittee of rules consisting of fifteen
members, with "Hamlet" left out.
In other words, Speaker Cannon,
the autocrat, the czar, the "whole
thing" the Hamlet in the play of
Congressional procedure, was over
thrown The insurgents and Demo
Gratis had a majority and were deter
mined to reap all there is in this adj
vantage. 1t is difficult to foretell
the important political bearings of
this crisis in the House. The Pres
ident, it is said, is more than ever an
xious with reference to his policies,
or the Roosevelt policies, as they are
still called. Early in his administra-
ton he aligned himself with the reg
uIars and instead of opposing Speak
er Cannon as did his predecessor, he
announced, and has since emphasized
his preference for what is still called
the regular" organization. In other
words, he has stood by Cannon,
Payne, Dalzell, Tawny and others in
the House, and by Aldrlch, Hale,
Lodge and the eastern clique of Sen
ators. His attitude has more or less
estranged the Cummins, Dolliver, La
Toilette Beveridge and other not less
distinguished and militant group of
Senators from the west and north
west. The President has not the u
Universal and widespread popularity
of his predecessor. There are mil
lions of Republicans in the United
States who would rally to the "Big
Stick" of Roosevelt, but upon whom
the smile of Taft can have no influ-
euce

linger Pinchot inquiry. In fact, it
has been held up for lack of quo
rum. The House members were all
required on the floor by the respec.
tive factions. and therefore the Bal-
linger, Pinchot investigation has been
temporarily adjourned.
1t seems from an announcement in
the Presidents speech at Rochester,
n. Y. that complete agreement has
betn reached with France on all tar
iff differences, and he is expected to
sign a proclamation today at Albany
giving to France the 269S reduction
of rates provided in the tariff law
of the extra session. 1t is stated al.
so that Notwithstanding the fact
that the situation appears to be
hopeless, there is still some pros
pect Of an undertaking with the Ca
madam authorities by which tariff
war may be ayerted.
Much anxiety is felt in cabinet and
political circles in Washington, also
in financial quarters, especially in
the eastern and northern part Of
the country, with reference to the ca
madam tariff situation. Unless the
President shall be able to say by
March 81 that there is no discrimiu
alton against American goods thru
Canadian tariffs. there must be, un

When Pat Harrison first announc-
ed IN the Tribune. in referring TO his
announcement we state d b Il t
Wayne is a Harrison county, and
how well we know the temper,of the
people of that county is told in the re
markable majority rolled up for him
in the primary of last Monday.
The result is but the natural re
ward that is due those who ha, e
proved true in trusts of responsiuIl-
ity confded to them and shows that
gratitude is not dead in the land.
All praise for those who stood for
the right through the battle, and all
honor TO Pat, whose past brilliant
and faithful stewardship furnished
the inspiration that caused them to
do so.

HARRIS0N'S RUN.

Pass Christian Beacon.
The magnificent run made by Pat
Harrison in every section of the
Sixth Congressional District is a
manifestation of the endorsement by
the people of this brilliant young
statesman s candidacy for congress,
and assures lis nomination in the
second primary.
With two worthy, clean and able
opponents he came out of the first
primary with such a lead as to create
the impression in the minds of many
that it would be unwise for his next
highest opponent to undertake run
off.
With no power or influence behind
him save that of his own character,
record and ability he entered the
campaign, carrying his claims forth
in such honest, candid and impress
i've logic as to win confidence and
support wherever he spoke.
AT once he was recognized by MAJ
ny as the man the sixth district need
ed in the next congress, and there IS
no doubt but that he will be selected.
No man ever made in the sixth dis
trict race equal to that won b.
Harrison last Monday, but it is a
deserved compliment to young man
for whom the future holds much in
store

Gulfport Daily Record.
The result of Mondays Demo
cracic primary election continues the
chief subject of conversation on the
streets and in the Offices abo~t the
city. Everywhere genuine satisfac-
ton is expressed among Mr. Har-
rison's friends at the splendid run
made by him in the Iate election.
From all returns in hand the re.
suit as given in Tuesdays issue is
unchanged in the NUN, save to serve
to swell the plurality of GuIfport's
favorite son. The second primary,
which will take place on Monday,
September II, will be between Mes
srs. Harrison and Tally, and, while
there is no likelihood of Il wakover
for the Harrison county man. there
is every reason to believe that he
will be the choice Of the people of
this district by d handsome majority
oyer his remaining opponent.
From every section of the district
the news comes to the Harrison
headquarters in this city t'!at his
friends are actively at work in his
behalf and have gone into the second
primary with a determination to
press their candidate claims to the
last ditch Many expressions from
those who opposed his candidacy in
the first primary are to the effect
that he will receive their unstinted
aid and support in this race.
Mr.. Harrison is in the fight to a
finish, and is not gong TO sit down
and wait for things TO come to him
He is on the go, even at this time,
and may be depended on to keep up
the battle until the very day of cleo.

the ardent friends of the Hon. Frank
Ell. Lewis that Mr.. Harrison will now
come in for a major portion of his
vote, which in itself would mean the
swinging of enough votes to insure.

OUR CHOICE FOR CONGRESS
HON. B. PAT HARRISON.
EDITORIAL

The amount of Harrison matter
this week we confess to be urge. but
the time is short and the race swift
and we have TO make haste if we do
anything at all towards showing the
people just how strong our man ran,
and how he has gained strength
since the result was waited over the
district. So we have crowded on full
sail, and next week we expect to car
ry fully as much as this time and if
need be will rig and hang out a
iury-mast to catch any extra breezes
astir.

OVET'T Is In LINE.

Ovett Observer, Jones Co.
We are exceedingly proud of the
vote here for our Pat. At least
the majority of our citizenship saw
the right way" aud we believe
that by September 18th, (the sec
ord primary eIection) all will be for
HARRISON
the vote in the first primary shows
which one of the three is the most
popular, and which one the majority
of the people think is the best man
for the place, and now we hope that
since our good friend Mr. Lewis has
conceded to Mr.. Tally the right to
run in the second primary that every
good farmer and citizen in this dis
trict will give his support to Mr.
Harrison.
Mr.. Harrison is certainly as well,
if not better, qualified to serve us in
the Congressional Halls as bis or
ponent, and has the advantage over
bis opponent in age.
We think it is but right for us to
encourage our boys and young PEG
pie to grasp every opportunity and
get an education and ut themselves
for any calling in life, and not say
to them: You've got plenty OF
time to make something of yourself;
do like John K. Tally: nick cotton
and split rails until you are q or %
years old. and then start out for ali
education, and then when you get Il
fairly good education you will be just
the right age. If you educate your
self now, while you are young, you III
have to wait % or 30 years before
you can do anything.
You old men cannot live always
and it is your duty to train the
young men up in such way that
they can pilot this country as good,
if not better than the old men have
done.
