Lamar and other counties where new
railroads have been built in the last
few years, will show good increase,
while certain of the North MISSISSIPPI
pi counties show large increases.
Some of the Delta counties are also
showing good increases.
This is due to the fact that people
are taking more interest in politics,
in some instances, and to growth IN
population in others. In some coun-
ties, owing to the boil weeviI and
other local conditions. a slight de-
crease will be noted, but it is be-
lieved, the state as "a whole, will
show several thousand increase over
any previous registration.
In Jackson, for instance, where
registration is in progress for the mu-
nicipal primary, an increase of about
400, it is estimated, will be shown
over two years ago. The registration
books for the city primary will close
May 8, five days before the primary.
This increase in Jackson does not
include the recently annexed suburbs,
which, if counted, would add about
$50 more votes. The vote in Jackson
two years ago was something over
LOO, but this year it will go over
two thousand.
Few negroes are registering in any
of the counties. There are, all told
several hundred negroes in the state
who register and vote, many of them
voting the Democratic ticket, but
most of those who register stick to
the G. o. P, in the general elections
Interest in the senatorial contest
local fights, where the lines are
tightly drawn and local conditions
generally are the causes that bring
out the voters for registration.
The vote in the Williams Varda
man campaign was the largest ever
polled in Mississippi, but according
to present indications, the contest in
1911 will bring out several thousand
more votes.

Ten Years Test
OF Eczema Cure

After a ten years test, oil of win
tergreen, as compounded in d. D. d..
Prescription, has so thoroughly, so
absolutely proven its merits for skin
diseases, that we have arranged with
the d. d. d. Laboratories of Chicago
for a special offer on a 25-cent trial
bottle.
We ourselves became convinced
years ago. Cure after cure and the
testimony of the worlds leading skin
specialists showed us that the way
to cure the skin is through the skin;
not, however, by means of a salye
which always clogs the outer skin-
but with a penetrating liquid that
gets to the inner skin, killing the
germs while soothing the healthy tia-
sue.-
The Oil of Wintergreen Compound,
d. d. D. Prescription, penetrates while
soothing the skin; and 25-cent bot
tle-a good sized trial bottle-is now
offered, besides the S1.00 bottle, in or
der to convince everybody. For this
trial bottle ought to be enough to
show the way to the cure, and at any
rate the liquid the instant it is ap-
piled will take away that itch-yes,
just as soon as the wash is applied,
the skin is soothed and refreshed.

prospects are for full crop at good
prices. The corn crop. however, is
in many respects a more desirable
crop than wheat, and the outlook is
for a very large acreage of this
grain In cotton the reports of dam
age have been much exaggerated.
Probably not more than a third of the
crop has been planted, and the dam
age was confined to comparatively
small localities. 1t is not too late for
replanting, and there is consequently
ample time for recouping all the loss
es thus far suffered. A large cotton
acreage is practically certain Con-
siderable damage to the fruit crops
has occurred in certain sections of
the West, but here too the injury
was greatly exaggerated, and other
sections of the country are known to
possess very favorable promise. Re-
garding the crop situation as a whole
there is yet no occasion for uneasi-
ness. The crop-killers, however, have
had a good inning, and undoubtedly
made the most of their opportunities.
The above briefly cites all the
known unfavorable features of conse-
quence. 1t is true they are reaction
airy: but the reaction should be re-
garded as natural and desirable
correction of an abnormal position.
The country has been travelling too
fast Our markets were out of gear.
A period of REIMBURSEMENT was abso-
lutely necessary to restore prices and
supplies to the normal This pro-
cess of readjustment is now being
passed through. There is nothing in
the situation to warrant any unusual
uneasiness. On the contrary, the gen
eral situation is sound underneath
and the settling of our affairs upon a
lower and safer basis, and the elimi
nation of weak spots will in the end
be beneficial, furnishing the basis fol
fresh forward and more substantial
movement than would be otherwise
possible. 1t may be that the reaction
will progress; but the further it goes
within reason, the better will be the
chances for a sound recovery later on
There is no cause for taking a dis
couraging view of the future; and, i
the country is favored as still seems
possible with ample crops, the veal
1910 will prove a more satisfactory
period than seems probable from
present immediate outlook. New
York, it must be remembered, is al
ways apt to be more pessimistic thai
any other city in the country, and thu
further one goes from this city, thu
brighter the outlook becomes.
