aside. and that we get down to bus
mess and concern ourselves with
local affairs. For the past month
or two politics has had effect upon
business and we should cut out the
whimperings and accept our vic
tories and defeat like men, and
more seriously engage ourselves in
the business interest at home. Our
crop seem to be in plendid condi-
ton. and a bumper yield is antici-
pated unless esrious deterioration
sets in. and there is promise OF a
fancy price for the fleecy staple.

let's lay politics on the shelf until
the next state contest is pulled off.
Be true democrats, accept the

Vardaman is Elected.

In one of the most interesting
campaigns ever enacted in the state
of Mississippi for the enatorial toga
LET down it's curtain on the evening
of the ist of August. Being OPP
posed by two of Mississippi's most
learned citizens and statesmen, and
having thrown against his bulwarks
every charge possible and every
contention conceivable, Ex-GoVer-
nor James K. Vardaman is the NOM
inee of the Democratic party for
United States senator, with hand
some majority in the first primary.
Emerging from his defeat in the
last session of the legislature he
made his intention of aspiring for
the toga before the people, and at
that time he and his admirers hail
ed him as the peoples choice. A
campaign of much bitterness was
waged the brain Of each contender
and their able campaign bureaus
actively engaged in tightly drawing
the lines putting into play every
possible agency that was sure to
rebound to their interests or to
reduce the strength of an opponent.
Speculation was indeed largely
engaged in, and when the campaign
ended on the evening of the last
day of July, Vardaman's followers
were more confident of victory than
ever before, but Percy,'s and Al
exander's contingent felt sure OF

the news of the election begin to lily

daman was a winner in the first
round, and by the afternoon OF the
following day when returns were
more complete and a concise survey
could be had Of the result, the CAM
paign bureaus of the opposition
conceded Mr.. Vardaman's election.
Though opposing Major Varda-
man on personal grounds. we abide

with the hope that he will reflect
upon himself and his constituency
the honor and credit that his pred
ecessors have achieved. The Com
monwealth declined to take any
stock in the senatorial race, being
more concerned in the election of
our county officers. It's attitude
was neutral as between the oppo-
sition, and its columns were not
used to attack Vardaman at any
instance nor to wage an aggressive
appeal on behalf of the opposition.
It accepts the verdict from the
people, and like all true Democrats
should do, he is our senator, too.

part.

majority.
Commenting on his victory. the
acknowledges, which has always
been against him, and whose editor
said at Utica to a friend, that this
abuse of Vardaman was only poll
tics, says:
He made a great fight, and has
won a grand victory, the greatest
ever won by any man in this state,
all things considered, for he has
been more severely criticized, more
terribly abused. than any man Of
fering for public office in Missis-
sippi.
That paper further says: This
paper has not taken any stock in
the twaddle that yardaman would
make a silly spectacle of himself
in the senate and bring disgrace on
his state"
The Times-Democrat speaks OF
the nomination editorially in this
manner:
1.-The election of Jas. X. Varda-
man to the United States senator
ship, by a clean-cut majority over
two able antagonists in the first
primary, must be accepted by his
political opponents, no less than by
his friends, as a remarkable ana
unmistakable triumph both for the
man and the political policies he
has advocated. There can no long
or he any doubt that Major Var
daman and his policies are support
ed by decisive majority of the
people of his state, or that both
represent and tipify the present
sentiment of Mississippi. One of the
advantages of the primary system,
as it is practiced in Mississippi, is
the beautiful finality OF it's results.
And it was never more beautifully
illustrated than by the contest just
ended"
That Mr. Vardaman will distin-
guish himself in the worlds great
est law-making body, goes without
saving. and in all probability the
time will come when nearly every
Mississippian will esteem and rev.
ere him.
In espousing the cause of Varda-
man, The Record has done so all
along because it believed him the
best man for the place, and that
the principles he advocated were
for the best interest of the people
While the writer holds him in high
esteem personally, it was not on
this ground that it advocated his
election, but with an eye single TO
the interests of the people, and be-
lieving that it was more OF
fight of the people against the
corporate interests, it has favored
his election all along. His admin
Istration as GOVERNOR demonstrated
that he was the peoples friend. and
at the close of bis administration
everybody ADMITTED that he had
made a splsndid governor. The
Record haS consistently supported
him ever since. and has no cause

There seems to be a disposition
upon the part of a few irrecon-
cilables, of which Fred Sullens of
the Jackson News appears to be the
leader. to ferment strife by keeping
alive the flame of discOrd between
John Sharp Williams and James X
Vardaman. Messrs. Alexander anil
Percy have accepted their defeat
very gracefully, but Mr.. Sullens re-
fuses to bow to the verdict of the
people. From what superior CLINE
did Mr.. Sullens come, that he should
be so much wiser, and know so
much better what is best for Missis-
sippians than they know what is
best for themselves? Are not the
people of this state, native and to
the manner born, capable of self
government? It brods no good for
Mississippi or for the democratic
party of Mississippi to ferment
strife between the two men who
will coon sit together in the senate
of the United States as representa-
tives from this state. They are men
of like political faith. and if they
are not large enough to subordi-
nate their personal differences to
their public duty. they are not
large enough, either of them, for
the chairs they occupy. The News
takes no stock in the report emf
mating from the Jackson News Of
flee that Messrs. Vardaman and
Williams will not speak when they
meet in Washington, even upon Of
fetal business, and that Mr.. Will
liams will decline to present his
colleague to the senate 1t would
be childish in Mr.. Vardaman to re-
fuse to give to the senior senator
the usual formal notice of his pres
ence and his readiness to be sworn
into office; and when he does that
it would be boorish and churlish in
Mr.. Williams to decline to present
him to the bar of the senate. We
think better of these gentlemen
tnan to believe they will do as Mr.
Sullens ''dopes it OUT for them to
do. Mr.. Sullens' wishes in the pre-
misses, peradventure, give rise to
his prognostications. Certainly if
Messrs. Vardaman and Williams
are so blind to the amenities of the
occasion, their best friends should
take them by their hands and lead
them. And their best friends will
not lead them in the direction Mr..
SulIens would have them go.---Hat-

The Election is Over.

The primary election held last
Tuesday brought victory to some
and defeat and disappointment to
many. But it was battle among
Mississippians and Notwithstanding
the intensity of the contest, it
pleases us to note that the election
passed off with nothing more seri-
Gus than war of words, and
battle of ballots. We Mississippians
utter many warm words and make
many rash statements, yet we are
quick to close ranks, blot out the
past and look to the future.
Those to whom the writer had
made confidential statements, will
bear witness TO tie fact that the re-
suit of the race for United States
Senator brought no surprise to him.
We believed C. H. Alexander bet
ter suited for the place and that
he would have served the state bet
ter. But the people have spoken.
We are never one to complain
about the resultof a political game.
The most bitter partisan can but
admire the zeal and fidelity of Ma
jor Vardaman's friends. We would
be untrue to ourselves if we did
not say that we stagger at accept
ing Bilbo as Lieutenant Governor.
We console ourselves with the
statement sometimes made by the
doctor that an emetic is at times
necessary in order to vomit the pa
tient. We quit the fight with mall
ice towards none. There is not
living soul to whom we would do
ian injury nor to whom we would
not extend helping hand, if dis
tress demanded it.
Let us hope for the best. Let each
of us do our duty and all will be
well. Congratulations to Major Var
daman and his friends.---Grenada

to take such steps as neccassar,
to combat the division of Custer
county by the Legislature which
meets in January"
While they may have occasion
to oppose the Burt county plan,
we fail to see their reason fo1
opposing Ekalaka's proposition
also. It will be remembered
that when the public spirited
men of Terry wanted the new
bridge, the people of southeast
ern Custer county gave them a
good vote and helped them in
every way possible towards Civ
ing them this needed improve
ment. Now that they have re-
ceived their "plum'', they seem
to think that we can go to the
land of Satan. Well, maybe
there is where we will land by
and-by, but in the mean time we
will always remember their met
hod Of doing business.
The people of southeastern
Custer county are entitled to a
county Of their own and are bet
ter situated to take care of them
selves than any of the rest. In
our proposed territory there will
be 1O1 townships, the taxes from
which, would furnish ample
funds for operating a new county
without an increase in the same.
Senator H. N. Sykes left last
week for the state capitol and
has pledged himself to support
the Ekalaka plan if division is
wanted by the majority of the
residents within the new pro-
posed county.
