law in the statutes on the "fraudu-

Considerable excitement prevailed
during argument by counsel and before
the decision of the judge. Senator
elect James X. Vardaman was among
the many friends of the accused man
who crowded into the courtroom, sew
eral of them having come from other
parts of the state.
The case will now be taken to the
supreme court to have a precedent es-
tablished, for 1t is fact that no court
il the land has ever had occasion to
decide case of this kind before.
Whatever the supreme court decides,
however, will have no effect In the

cases of the kind that may come up.
Mississippi, then, will be the first state
to have its supreme court to decid
a legal proposition of this kind.

days issue, double votes will be given
on all subscriptions turned in up ur.
til Saturday night at 10 o'clock.
But don't get the mistaken idea that
you will have another opportunity to
secure double votes after this week.
While the same number of votes are
issued on subscriptions this week as
last, 1t behooves every one who would
win, to get out and secure every sub
scription possible. Just one week re-
mains after Saturday, and all the big
prizes and lesser ones will be won in
that time. In fact, the most import

Saturday night, as that marks the close

again will as many votes be issued on

Therefore, the candidates doing their
very best, and sending in every sub
scription possible will derive the great.
