friends, "The New Minister" was again
given in Red Mems Hall, Thursday eve-

vARDAMAN OPENS
HIS CAMPAIGN
ADDRESSES LARGE CROWD IN
JACKSON.
Governor Opens His Campaign
For The United States Senate
Speech Along His Usual Lines.

Jas. X. Vardaman opened his cam
paign for a seat in the senate Of
the United States by delivering a
strong political address before a
large audience in Jackson last Fri
day night. The speaking was pre-
ceeded by a torchlight procession
up Capitol Street to the fair
grounds.
Conservative estimate place the
number of people who heard Var
daman at 1000. Many of these
were from towns near Jackson but
possibly the larger portion of the
crowd were residents of The capitol
city.
The distinguished speaker de-
livered strong address and his
hearers cheered his efforts to the
echo. His speech was along the
usual lines and made strong i'm
preston on his hearers.

So far none of the candidates for

majority of lnem are farmers and
they are busy getting their crops
started. The others say it is too
early in the campaign. A number
of the aspirants for office with
whom we have talked say they do
not intend to make house-to-

necessary. Many say they do not
feel like taking up a busy farmers
time soliciting his vote while he
is engaged in farming operations.

meet the voters. And of course
