Notice.

The impression seems to prevail that
the political editorials lately appearing
in the Beacon were written by Mr..
Henry Minor. This is not a fact. as
Immediately upon his becoming can
didate for the Legislature, Mr.. Minor
announced that he would take no part
in any political contest except his own.
and since that time he has written no
political articles for this paper in favor
of or against any candidate for senator
or other office.
The Beacon does not understand that
Mr.. Minor has undergone any change
in opinion or sentiment, but that he is
simply "hands off," in our opinion
very reasonable and proper position to
take. d. C. FERRIS, Publisher.

ton, know that some man, long
a candidate, almost always en-
tiers the flint with a big individ-
ual lead. If it amounts to a ma
jority, he is elected on the first
ballot. If he lacks that, it is
anybody's fight and results Of
tener than otherwise. as in the
case of the election of Gen.
Geogre in the choice Of a clark
horse" 1t is always in such
cases the field against the lead
ing man, and he who goes into
the contest with a long lead, is
generally defeated, as in recent
instances in New York, Tennes-
see, Montana, Maine and other
states. In fact. it is the rare ex-
ception when the leading candi-
date for senator who is short of
majority on first ballot wins.
This is largely due to the fact
that he has made a strenuous
fights in advance of the caucus,
and won every man who could be
coaxed or argued into his col
umn.
The opposition candidates make
common cause against the man
with most dangerous following.
each hoping to develop such
strength as to assure his own SUI
premacy when the usual motion
prevails to drop the lowest can
didate on each succeeding ballot.
1t was Major Vardaman's fate
or luck to enter the caucus with
the largest following, but he had
no peculiar claims to support.
He had but recently retired from
one Of the greatest offices in the
gift of the people, and his rivals
were all men of prominence and
worth who deserved well of Mis-
sissippi, and had equally as
strong or stronger claims. Col.
Street was a soldier of brilliant
record and a legislator par excel
lence, who had several times
been chosen speaker of the
house. John Kyle had served
faithfully as railroad commits
sioner and had made an able rep
resentative in congress. Adam
Byrd, as congressman, had at
tanned such efficiency as a tariff
expert as to make him a national
character. Anderson was a lead
err in the legislature and gen
tleman so advanced in standing
as a LAWYER. that the senate as
body, Vardamanites, Bryanitas
and even Bilboites petitioned the
governor for his appointment to

demand an Investigation.

Rome, March 6.-Radical members
or Parliament are demanding an in
yesligation Of alleged laxity in the war
office, resulting from the disclosures OF
the unsayory career OF Baron Nincenzo
Palermo, murderer Of Countess Guilia
Trigona, Queen Helena's lady-in-wait-
ing.
Palermo is i cavalry lieutenant in
good standing. despite the fact that he
has been guilty Of public bra~ls, cheat
ing 1t cards, beating women, defraud-
ing creditors and expulsion from clubs.
The minister Of var says that Palermo
vas not dismissed from the service be-
cause his disreputable character was
not known to the war Office.
The radicals say that Paterno's case
proves the charge that rank, fa1oritism
is prevalent in the army.
Palermo continues to improve. The
physicians say that his apparent mad
ness is all feigned.
Before Palermo began shamming
insanity, he told one of the physicians
that other scandals among women
high in the Italian court would come
10 light if he were placed on trial.
At firstit vas thought that his threat
vas without significance. but it vas
learned today that several OF the
women with whom Palermo was on
friendly terms are greatly agitated
over the promised expose. One OF
these women, whose identity is known,
is quoted as saying, when informed
that Palermo would recover:
What 4 blessing it wonld he il he
had died OF his wounds.
Notwithstanding that the trial may
be develop tremendous scandal, the
authorities announced today that
Palermo would he brought into court
as soon Is he RECEIVERS sufficiently.
