MISSISSIPPI NOMINATES FIVE
 OF EIGHT CONGRESSMEN

the incumbent, who went into office as Nardamanite, is being opposed by G. NJ. Beavers of Hickory, Guy Rencher of Dekalb and w. A. Ellis of Carthage. It is not believed here that there will be any nomination on the first primary, August 27, and that the race will prob ably have been run over by MT. With erspoon and MT. Ellis. Mir. Ellis is rec ognized as an anti-Vardaman man, and will no doubt receive the almost solid backing of that faction in the Fifth dis trict But that was what Judge Adam Byrd. got two years ago, and was de- feated.
 In the Eighth district the race is be- tween J. w. Collier of Vicksburg, the present incumbent, and K. H.. Henry of Jackson, and both sides are very certain Of victory. Both claim they are going to carry every county in the district bu. one-that is, four out of the five-and both are perhaps mistaken. Another fea- ture in the race in the Eighth is thal both candidates are keeping just as far away from the Vardaman and anti-Var- daman coal of fire as possible.
 Primaries will be held in all three of these districts Tuesday, August 27.

PANAMA CANAL
 BILL IS SCORED

London, August 26.-The Panama canal bill today is characterized as practically dishonest repudiation of direct bar gain by newspapers representing the views of all the British political parties. Meanwhile no definite procedure by the British government in regard to the bill can be framed, for nearly all the cab met ministers are scattered over the E.uropean continent at various watering places or else are shooting grouse on the Scottish moors and most Of the promi- nent politicians outside of the cabinet are engaged in similar ways. It is certain that the government will propose the reference of the question to The Hague court of arbitration. No details of sub hitting if have yet been settled

SOLDIERS ARRIVE
 ON LONG "H|KE'
First Battalion of Seven
  teenth Infantry Camps Near Ensley

The First battalion of the Seven teenth infantry regiment, U. S. A.. ur- der command of Maj w. R. Martin. ar rived in the district yesterday and arc encamped at Huey Springs. near Ems ley. The command numbers about 250 and Is composed of the four companies of the battalion. They are en route to Anniston at which point they will con- plete the 210-mile hike" ordered by the war department
 At this time they are travelling by easy stages, as they have covered the route designated by the department ahead of time and will spend the next two days in the vicinity of Birming- ham. This morning they will break camp and march to North Birmin ghan. where they will bivouac for the night and the next day will march to Wood lawn and establish camp at that point.

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 Your cable messages from London pub lshed In this mornings paper say that most of the London morning newspapers L rint editorials in which regret Is ex- pressed that President Taft signed the Panama canal bill and they unite in de- claring that the British government will fail in it's duty if it omits to insist that the matter be referred to The Hague The cable also proceeds to mention the names Of the newspapers which print tferefrom
 It is a noticeable and significant fact tbat all the adverse editorial comment comes from the iingoistic and tory papers. It is also noticeable and significant fnct that all the American newspapers especially those printed in New York, which have denounced the canal bill use practically the same language as their London contemporaries. Patriotic Amer ioan citizens might well inquire why is this.
 One of the London newspapers, the Daily Express. a rabid tory organ, writ ing under the title "Dlshonored' dares to charge this country with dishonor and dishonesty, and of the United States dragging it's flag mud-bespattered before the world" Mud-bespattered! Oh. mol Rather say. flying it's flag blood-bespat- tered; bespattered by the blood of men who shed that blood in the defense oi this country and it's liberties against tho tyranny and oppression of those who now dare to assail it's honor.
 None of this criticism or eensure comes from the democracy of Great Britain or its mouthpieces in the press. II all comes from the same source which inspires the writers and literally pays for the writ irgs that besmirch the character of the American people. Were a foreigner to write and speak of the American nation as some of these New York Anglomaniacs write and speak, he would deserve im- mediate deportation but what are we to say of or do with the native born Amer ican who traduces the honor of his own country and countrymen? 1 am only an American by adoption and naturalization, hut T would rather be dog and bay the noon than such an American as these Anglomaniacs are
 And here 1t may be well to tell these Anglomaniacs a little >ecret. An Eng lishmans patriotism is conclsely and fully expressed in the words, England, witt all thy faults I love thee still and
