LABOR VERSUS IDLENESS.

There is no blight like the blight
of idleness. 1t is in the unworked
garden that weeds grow. 1t is in the
stagnant water that disease germs
waken to horrid life. 1t is in the
calm that mariners lose heart, and
from the spent battlefield pestilence,
more dreaded foe than the red car
mage of war. Ennui pals upon a
Draye heart as FRUSTRATED peace falls
upon true soldier. Ennui Is like a
long winded amiable, but watery-
ideaed friend who dropped in to see
us and dribbles platitudes until every
nerve stands out like porcupine
quilts and we long for the advent
of an enemy. Ennui is like being
forced to eat meat without salt, or
to drink tepid water. Labor, on the
contrary, if it be remunerated is like
a friend with grit and endurance
in his makeup. 1t comes to us as a
wind visits the forest, and sets all
our faculties stirring, as the wind
ruffles the treetops. 1t saltens up
our meat and spices our drink.

MAY Be NOMINATED IN 1ST. PRIMARY.

Jones County News.
From every part of the Sixth
Congressional District comes the
glad tIdings that Pat Harrison is
gaining ground, and it would not
surprise this newspaper to see him
nominated in the first primary,
which is to be held on August p.
That he is the ablest man in the
race there is no question. He is
young and ambitious. His office
record, like his private life, is above
reproach.
For these reasons, and not be-
cause of the shortcomings of his op-
ponents, he is entitled to the support
of every citizen of the district who
believes in according honor to
whom honor is due, and who wants
faithful and conscientious repre-
sentative at Washington.
Go to the polls on August 22 and
vote for Harrison. See that your
friends and your neighbors do Ike
wise. Many victory has been lost
by carelessness on the. part of indi-
vidual voters, who are, after all, the
source of ali power.

Biloxi Advertiser.
About the only thing we have
heard urged against Mr.. Harrison in
lis race for congress is, that he is a
lawyer. The people know however
that Congress is law making body
and that one of the main qualitica
tions of lawmaker, should be that
he knows the law. Mr.. Harrison
was farmer before he became a
lawyer, he knows the farmers needs
and his fine qualifications as a law
yer, only the better enables him to
serve them. The people living in
country districts are in this day
and age too well informed to be mis-
lead by such attempts to prejudice
them against any man aspiring for
Office. When a fellow starts out
running for Office as farmer" and
the farmer candidate" the people
are very apt to remember that there
are two classes of farmers who
works the farm and the other who
works the farmer,

GETS OVATION AT PASS CHRISTIAN.

Dispatch from Pass Christian in New
Orleans Picayune, August 10th.
Hons. B. P. Harrison and F. HI.
Lewis, candidates for Congress in
the Sixth Mississippi District, spoke
to large audience at the City Hall
last night, ard were both given
strict attention. Mr.. Harrison is
the Harrison County candidate and
halls from Gulfpo-t, while Mr.. Lewis
comes from Pascagoula, the two rival
ports on the Mississippi coast. Har-
rison is a lawyer and is at present
the district attorney of the Second
Judicial District. He is a pleasing
speaker, with a flow of soft eloquence
that draws his audience to him, He
severely criticised Mr., Lewis posi-
ton on several of the issues, and e.
specially his alledged relations with
the railroad officials and millmen. He
also amused the audience with a
good-natured ridIcule of Mr.. Lewis
farming proclivities, as the latter
poses as farmer. On the much dis
cussed "Dantzler Letter." Mr.. Har-
rison, anticipating the presentation
of it by his opponent, gave a plain
statement of the whole matter, which
explanation was received by the
audience with so much applause Mr..
Lewis did not question the subject
at all when he followed. Harrison S
position on the immigration question
wherein he protests against the for
elgners acquiring the right of suf-
frage after only stay in this country
of five years, while the native born
boy must wait twenty-one for the
same privilege, was Endorsed by most
vociferous applause. In closing he
paid the ladies present a beautiful
tribute, and as he took his seat he
was given an ovation.

Belief in Luck.

We are firm believer in luck; that
if a young man be dihgent and looks
we'll to all his ways, be will have
what the world terms luck. If he
aspires to eminence in some calling
or profession, and with fixed resolves
determinedly pursues the rout thith
er, luck will land him route thither,
luck will land him there at last. II
he courts favor, position in life are
or great honors, and strive earnest
ly, patiently persistently and brave
ly, luck will satiate every longing
desire. If it is his purpose TO win in
any walk in life that his ambition
may suggest, if he wisely and judi
ciously makes use of the powers in
his possession and the opportunities
of life, luck will grant them. Luck,
like faith, to make it available must
be accompanied by works, and the
more earnest the work the better
will be the luck or greater the faith.
Luck follows labor aud effort and ii
will help you over difficulties if you
strive the same as it will help you
over a ditch if you jump. Luck will
put u bit of bacon into your pot if
you look we'll after your garden end
keep a pig. Luck generally comes
to those who look after 1t; and our
notion is it taps, once in a life time,
at every man S door, but II industry
does not open 1T, away it goes.

SUPPORTING THE HOME MAN.
Gulf Coast Advertiser.

Gulf Coast Advertiser.
In the person of Mr.. B. z. Harri-
son, our county presents to the
voters of the sixth district as a can
didate for Congress, a young man
whose record is one that any man
might we'll be proud of. AS Dem
ocrat he has always been faithful,
and in every campaign has stood
firmly by the Democratic nominees
and platforms state and national,
doing all in his power, by speaking
in his county and at other places
whenever called upon by the party
leaders.
He has lived among us long enough
for the people of Harrison County to
know that his personal character is
above reproach. His standing as a
member of the bar of the State is
that of an able lawyer and high
toned, courteous gentlemen, qualified
in every respect to faithfully dis
charge the duties of the high posi-
ton to which he aspires.
AS district attorney, he has vigor-
ously discharged the duties of his
Office, aiming at all times to be fair
to rich and poor, according justice
alike to all. His friends believe that
he should have the solid vote of the
peOple of his home county, and are
making vigorous campaign in his
behalf
The Advertiser has no fight to
make on Mr.. Harrison's opponents,
but this paper is supporting him for
the reason that he is a home man,
aud for the further reason that he
is splendidly QUILTED for the posi-
ton to make an ideal representa-
tive of the people in the national
house and will be untiring in his
efforts in their hohalf

LAWYERS NOT NECESSARILY
PARASITES.

In seasons of political upheaval it
dispassionately discussed, great pin
ciples can be more wildly impressed
that in times OF quiet, as the person
al equasion burns into the memory.
With such an introduction, we wish
to drop briefly a few observations
touching that class called, the law
yers. In our humble opinion arrived
at after several years hard study, ex-
perience and close contact, we con-
slider LAWYERS a necessary inte-
tegral in the organization OF society,
and we remember that history recites
that some of the early colonies plant
ed IN America soon got their affairs
in such middle from tie lack of
having brought along any barristers
in their companies, that they had to
send back to the mother country and
bring out attol neys to strengthen
out the tangleS. Later when a break
with the old order of things became
paramount, lawyers occupied con-
spicuous places in the Continental
Congress, Constitutional Convention
and filled the presidency and were
found and needed in the federal con-
gress from the jump, and are yet as
advisers as to the conStitutionallty
end correct form in the draughting
of legislation, though we ADMIT that
like many other classes in the makeup
of this and every nation, they have
abused some of their privileges but
are censurable only to that extent.
To attempt to trace the present
high cost of living and corporate
dominancy in Legislative chambers to
lawyers alone, as our good friend Dan
Mcleod does in his article in the
Moss Point Advertiser, is argueing
from an incorrect standpoint, and
can but tend to engender class
hatred, We are all Necessary and
interdependent one on the other, so
lets recognize our mutual usefulness.

Mr.. MONEY LAUDs HARRISON.

(This Speech delivered at the Grand
Harrison Rally Ill Gulfport as q re-
suit of which 525 names were enrol
led on Harrison County Harrison
Club.)
Gulfport Daily Record, July 26.
Mr.. Moneys speech was mainly in
defenes of the Lawyers. 1t will be
remembered that while none of Mr..
Harrison IS opponents are saying
any thing hurtful to the lawyers, one
of his strongest is running mainly
on the fact that he is a farmer and
that the people, he thinks, should
put farmers in office in preference to
lawyers.
Mr.. Moneys speech was strong
and we'll listened to. He spoke of
the higher positions which were
held by the lawyers. 1.-The constitu-
tions of the world wei e" written by
lawyers. The parents of this coun-
try are, if they have boy whom
they think is little smarter and
little brighter than the general
run of boys, saving that boy up to
take as lis profession in life that OF
a lawyer; and, Mr.. Money argued.
that therefore the best men for poll
tical otficeholders would naturally
come from among the lawyers, who
had, through their profession, receiv-
ed LIES training for the especial
kind of work required of them as
such office holders.
Mr.. Money next spoke Of Harrison,
the home boy, - Who he pictured in
glowing terms the big hearted big
Drained man that he is; a man of
courage, and the man who, if sent
to Congress, will have the courage
necessary to stand up to his cOnvic-
lions ana TO get for his people What
they should have and what they
want. To Summarize, Mr.. Money
said that Harrison was man who
had the physical, mental and moral
courage TO meet any one on ques-
tiOns concerning the interests of his
constituents; man who would
stand by the people of this congress-
ional district, and whose convictions
the people of this district would find
were closely resembling theirs; a
man who has great ambitions and an
honest heart, and that may had to
be made for him, for he was sure to
get there some day.
Mr.. Money then urged all to get
together and push Harrison, espe-
cially asking the support of the
ladies in the interest of his candidate.
