BRYAN STILL BUTTTVG Nv

We are a great admner of MI. Bryan and think he has wrought
a great work for the nation. but he shows in many ways that he is
not unlike all other men-has some mighty little ways. lie has been
three times nominated for the presidency by his party and has every
time gone down in defeat; therefore it would seem that it is time for
him to take a back seat and let somebody else come to the front.
Vet he seems unwilling 10 do this. His attack on Harmon and on
Underwood, both candidates for the democratic nomination, are
wholly uncalled fer and unwarranted. If they are not the right sort
of men, the convention will find it out and will not put the stamp of
party approval on them. - .~4 ~s 49, -
Governor Harmon, in a speech at Wooster, Ohio, on Monday of
this week, made a splendid defense of his progressive democracy
and his administration as Governor of Ohio, and gave a severe re-
buke to Bryan for butting into the campaign in Ohio in his desire to
defeat Harmon. Harmon says eight years ago Bryan offered to
place him in nomination for the presidency, and that in 1908 he
told friends of Harmon that if he (Bryan) was elected president he
would offer Harmon a place in his cabinet. Harmon can not recon-
cie his attitude then with his fight on him now unless it be that
Bryan wants to be dictator and prevent the nomination of anybody
that does not ask his sanction in advance. 1t looks quite that way.
Harmon states on this point:
Has it come to pass in the democratic party that winning re-
peated victories in its name counts as nothing tor one mar while re-
peated defeats give another the right to dictate its course or limit
its choice to a list of eligibles prepared by HIMSELF"

Il STATE HIGH

Our readers will recall that last week we reproduced an article
from the pen of Mr.. w. b. Hofa of this city which had appeared in
the Commercial Appeal, and to which the editor of that great paper
had given his endorsement. Mr.. Hoffa is an enthusiast on the mat
ter of good roads, or indeed anything else that means for the per-
manent development of our section, and he was but endeavoring to
crystalize that which is being seriously considered by every man
who looks ahead of today. Governor Brewer emphasized most
forcefully the matter of improved public roads and a highway run
ming through the state, in his inaugural address. Other states are
building such roads. The times demand them. 1t is the very sanest
sort of business to construct them. But we feel sure nobody Will at
tempt to controvert this argument. Alw will agree that scarcely any
thing would add more to the material development of our state and
the prosperity and contentment of people, than good roads that can
be travelled at any period and in any conveyance.
But when the matter is seriously urged. there comes the echo
from many hills, wait" I'VE can't do this now" Wait never built
a ship, erected a church. won a battle, healed the sick, opened a
bank, made a crop. started an engine, or did anything else that ben
flied humanity. The waiting has already been done regarding road
building. 1t is time to take the past and make it energize the pres
ent. Only a few days ago we traversed a small piece of road in Ok
tibbeha county that had been graveled and it was perfect. The
rains of the past winter did not disturbed it any more than they did
the sidewalks of our city. That road is there to stay for generations.
1t would be difficult to place an estimate on the value OF a high
way running from the Tennessee line through Mississippi. 1t would
undoubtedly bring more returns in dollars and cents to the state
than the money it would take to build it. Besides the matter OF
dollars, there is the matter of comfort and satisfaction of travel that
would be the greatest dividend producer. ..
We are pleased to note that the counties OF Tate and Pamela
have already acted afhrmativey in the matter of building this high
wav and we hope every county north of Grenada will join hands
with them. We feel sure that Grenada county will fall in line; and
let IS see that the highway sentiment takes the state.

THE MISSISSIPPI OTERFLOW

The Mississippi overflow is receding, but it will perhaps be all
of thirty days before the flooded section will be free from water. 1t
is mere speculation as to the damage, OF loss IN dollars and cents,
+o this state. 1t is difficult to see how the territory now inun-
dated can make a crop. Besides the loss of property many human
lives have been sacrificed. Many, no doubt, have been drowned

LESSON OF H POLITICAL C.AMP.4IGN"'

A political year such as this should prove wholesome as a cor
receive for cocksureness of opinion to any save the most partisan
Where two earnest and reputable candidates. for the same Office de-
liberately and positively contradict each others acts and assail each
others political principles; where two opposing conventions with
unanimous vote condemn each of the party principles, the party pol
ices, and the party Legislation of the other, surely there is sufficient
ground here to give pause to the open-minded man who puts the
search for truth above partisan advantage. Surely too, each of US
NAV find a warning here against dogmatic arrogance of opinion and
the conceit of all righteousness for his own views and party. Rightly
studied and applied, the experiences and reflections of a campaign
wear must work for a greater humility, at least among the wise and
onen- minded. -Southern Christian Advocate.

DISCUSS
CORRUPT PRACTICE ACT.
Charles Murphy Quoted in Indianapolis
Paper About Situation in
Lake County.

Just what effect the corrupt prac-
tices act will have on the campaign in
Lake county this fall is a matter of
speculation among politicians This is
largely due to the fact that few of
them are familiar with the provisions
of the act Both parties are ready to
accuse the other, however.
The republicans do not have much
to fear a result of the passage of
this act" said well-known politician
today. The facts are that the Lake
county democrats have gone to In
dianapolis and told false stories of al
legged republican practices in Lake
county for the purpose of excusing
their failure to get results.
Used Excuse.
1t was the only excuse they had to
offer for the defeats that have been ad-
ministered to them from time to time,
