Vicksburg Daily Post.

Vicksburg Daily Post.
Thousands and thousands OF the
free and unterrified people OF Ponto-
toe county greeted ex Governor Var
daman in the town OF Pontotoc yes
terday The people gave grand de-
demonstrations in his honor, and listen
ed to his eloquent words with close
attention and great enthusiasm.
Pontotoc will make good its claim to
be the banner Vardanan county in
the State. Down with the secret
caucus is their battle cry, and it
means an overwhelming victory for
the champion of the rights of the
people.
Never did two Senatorial candi-
dates have such heavy handicap as
Leroy Percy and G. H. Alexander.
They have to carry the dead weight
of corrupt and law-evading secret
caucus, and also the odium OF being
supported by Governor Noel.
The outpouring OF the people at
Vicksburg, at Columbus, at Olive
Branch, at Pontotoc, and at every
place where Vardaman has delivered
speech is immensely encouraging
to him aud to his supporters, and
presages the most remarkable victory
in the States history.

The Roller Towel A Disease Conveyor.

Columbus Despatch.
The drummers have declared war
on the roller towel, and the days of
the musty, malodorous domicile of
germs and breeder are numbered.
President A. G. Benners of the Mis-
sissippi Travellers Association and
his fellow officers have launched a
crusade VS. roller towels, and they in :
tend to keep it going until the OBJ
ject in view has bean accomplished
That bacteria has been communi-
Gated through roller rowels used III
discriminatory by guests of hotels
and boarding houses is the testimony
of every physician who Is posted on
the subject, and the travelling men of
Mississippi believe that the majority
OF the hotels will Immediately COM
ply with their request.
In the event, however, that the
proprietors of hotels and boarding
houses should fail or refuse to Danish
roller towels from their wash rooms,
substituting therefor greater sup
ply of individual! towels, so that each
guest after haylng performed h S
additions may have fresh one, the
Mississippi Travellers Association
will petition the legislature to enact
law compelling them to do SO.

forehe was accused of having mis-ap-
propriated the contingent fund??? If
Vardaman stole that money why not
appeal to jury of his peers instead
of to the swill barrel? It's all just a
piece OF political trickerv. They are
trying to muddy the waters and es-
cape themselves during the confu-

Editor Has Long Memory for UngratefuI
CuSS.

McEwen (Tenn.) Herald.
A newspaper has innumerable op-
portunities to boost and extend cour-
tesies of various kinds to people, and
is generally wiling to do 50. In do
ing these things it does not often
expect direct pay. But there are
people who will accept boosts and ia
vors from a paper and then when an
opportunity comes oreciprocate they
forget all about them and give it the
cod shoulder. For this kind of peo-
pie the newspaper has good mem
Dry. The friendship OF newspaper
is worth something, for the newspa-
per always returns more boosting
than it receives. No man lives who
does not at some time in his life, and
perhaps oftener. ask for and receive
favors from newspaper. Then is
when the editors memory comes TO
his aid.
