Far Reaching Importance Of A Vote.
Winona Times.

w ii1OIld LlulCos
People do not know what sover,
eing right they have in the privilege
of casting their ballot until that
seif-same ballot is taken from them.
How any man can refuse to cast his
ballot, or take so little interest in
his. vote that he will forget to go to
the polls and cast his ballot. or dis
franchise himself by refusing to pay
his pool tax is more than we can un-
derstand If those who so thought
.lessly place so little value upon their
citizenship, which is an attribute of
sovereignty, could see how those
that have lost their rights plead for
their restoration, they would value
this privilege more highly. In our
estimation the greatest punishment
and humiliation that cam be- inflicted
upon man is to disfranchise him.
Your vote, or my vote might be the
result, of entirely changing the result
of the election. Oliver Crom well, it
is said, was elected to the British
Parliament. by asingle vote. Who
eyer cast that vote did not dream for
one moment that the echo OF his
little ballot would some day be heard
in the rattle of musketry, and the
thunder of the capnOns OF the Crom-

Don't believe any eleventh hour
yarns gotten out to defeat Vardaman
or belittle his cause. Be not discour-
aged at anything you hear but go
forth confident that legions are
marching to the battle the state over,
engaged in doing their part in one of
the greatest bloodless revolutions in
Mississippi to recapture its offices
for the ordinary and most numerous
class of it's citizenship away from the
organized wealth forces with their
allies of those who have BETRAYED
your trust. They will leave no stones
unturned to weaken your ardor and
to thoroughly discourage, but worry
not. Vafdaman S campaign is IN as.
fine shape as he could wish for the
state over as whole, and the people
who are thoroughly aroused, can be
depended upon to deliver the goods.

Editors Good Legislative Timber.

Yazoo Sentinel.
If the editors of Mississippi who
are now candidates for the iegisla-
tnre are successful, as we believe
they will be, that body will have
more newspaper men In it than any
OF its predecessors. Among those
announced are the following: San
ders and Noah, of Kosciusko; Owen,
of New Albany; Anderson, of Ripley;
Norwood, of Magnolia; Hall Sanders,
of Charleston; Everett, of hickory;
Robinson. OF Wesson, and perhaps
others. Several of these have had
legislative experience, and four of
them, Messers. Wiley Sanders and
Noah, Owen and Anderson, took
front rank in last legislature. Ed
tors as rule, makes splendid legis-
lators, and the Sentinel believes that
most of those announced will be cleo
ted, and they will make good. "

Broad Mindedness Required in Editor

MonticelloQll.) Republican.
The editor should be broad minded
and liberal in his views. The editor
who thinks everybody ought to agree
with everything he writes and who
does not give liberal consideration
to the thoughts and feelings of others
ought to be following some other vo-
cation. This is especially true in pub
fishing the often so called news OF the
community. 1t oftentimes requires
better judgment in knowing what to
leave out of the news column than it
does to know what to publish. There
are times, situation and relationships
which demand the suppression of q
news item. A boy may be arrested
for his first offense committed on the
impulse of the moment or through
some mistake. Publicity might result
in starting him on a criminal career,
while suppression might seve him to
good citizenship an d better things.

Indicative of Desperate Cause.

Sea Coast Echo.
No reasonable and sane thinking
man will vote for the candidate who
attempts town upon trumped up and
alleged shortcomings and dement's of
his opponent. This is indicative of
weakness and desperation. A man
who has no virtues to com mend him
self is woefully lacking in the essen
tlal qualifications for the office he
would have. This applies to many
but particularly to the enemies and
opponents of Ex-Governor James K.
Vardaman. Messrs. Alexander and
Percy, it appears, cannot make an
address in behalf of their respective
candidates. unless they stoop in the
attempt to besmirch the character
and record of their distinguished op-
pOneDt.

Gov. Vardaman starts out with a
great lead; he has been in the public
eye long enough that every citizen in

in his life, both private and political,
that he is worthy and able, and the
fact that he gave to the state one of
the most able administrations in our
