POLITICS.

Despite the fact that the pri-
maries and election are two wears
distant the political pot in Missis-
sippi is near the boiling point.
Especially is this true as to the
governorship. Bilbo has been a
candidate ever since the primary
in which he was nominated in
1911. John R. Tally of Hatties-
burg is flirting with the PROPOSE
ton of running against him, and
Speaker Quinn is seriously con-
sidering becoming a candidate.
or. to be more accurate, serious
ly considering announcing his
candidacy. Corn Club Smith is
being boosted for the gubernato-
rial chair by his friends, but so
far has not developed much pollti-
cal speed.
Representative s. Joe Owen
has announced for Secretary of
State and Joe Power will be CIV
en- a hard race. Senators Joe
Norwood and A. C. Anderson will
both probably run for Lieutenant
Governor and Representative
John L. Smith of West Point is
being urged to run.
The congressional primaries
come up next summer. In this
district Gambler will have opposi-
ton. Senator Broyles, who ran
against Gambler last year, has al.
ready announced his candidacy
There is an insistent demand from
his friends all over the district
that Hon. Harden Brooks maxi
the race, and assurances of yer,
strong supp ort have been givel
him. Mr.. Brooks has not ye
given any indication of what h
will do. His administration, o
the office of district attorney ha
won him high distinction, AM
gives him great strength in tn,
southern part of the district, and
he is very favorably known il
the upper half. If he runs, the
race will be between him and Mr..
Gambler, and the contest will be
a close one.

Ed Blackburn, colored, of Mobile, was
sent to the county road for thirty days
and fined $25, on a charge of carrying
concealed weapons, in Judge Cockrell's
court last Wednesday. B~lackburn's
trouble was caused by a disturbance
with his wife, who came to this county
a week or so ago, binging her 10-months-
old baby and going to the home of her
parents, who live on the Yates place
seven miles northeast of Macon. Black
burn followed aud started back to Mo-
bile Tuesday night with the baby. His
wife followed him to town, made her
complaint to Night Police Maury, to
whom she told that Blackburn was
armed with a pistol. Officer Maury
went to to the depot and made the ar
rest and found the pistol on Blackburn.
The defense vas made that the negro
was travelling ~going from one state Ia
another-but JUSTICE cockrell thought

People Win at Last.

The long struggle is over. Five
months of work and the Democratic
party stands in the open, with its
pledge of tariff reform redeemed.
Forty four votes for and thirty.
seven votes against was the score
in yesterdays senate ccntest-a
seven to the good. La Toilette,
Republican, and Poindexter, Pro.
gressive, voted with the Demo.
Gratis, who were an unit for the
bill, save that the two Louisiana
senators, Democrats nominally,
voted with the Republicans.
The bill that passed is substan,
TALLY the house bill, the Under.
wood bill, and may be spoken of
as an undisputed triumph for Mr..
Underwood, of Alabama, the Dem
ocratic leader of the house. All
tariff retormers owe him a debt of
gratitude for the wisdom and ener.
gy displayed throughout a long
and arduous battle for the fulfil.
ment of the promise Woodrow
Wilson and the Democratic party
gave to the people. The fight in
the senate also has been ably
fought, and every effort of the as,
tute Republicans to confuse the is,
sue or to defeat reform by bring
ing in alien matter was attacked
and defeated.
The passing of the tariff bill is a
victory for President Wilson, es.
pecially, for he was kept in close
touch with the house and senate
leaders and has had great part in
planning and carrying out the re-
form. Mr.. Wilson's success in
keeping the party members in line
and producing effects under diff.
culties presented by the narrow
margin between the contending
forces, is something he may we'll
be proud of. 1t is something that
all of us may rejoice over. The
passing of the Democratic tariff
bill is the signal bell sounding a
message to the country that at
last the people have their way
the people rule; and that selfish
corporations no longer dictate leg.

BRUNDIDGE FOR GOVERNOR.

Hon. s. Brundidge, of White county, formerly prosecuting attorney of this, the First, judicial district, afterwards a member Of congress, positions which he filled with distinction for a num- Der of years who was defeated by less than 10000 majority by the late Sen ator Jeff Davis for the United States senatorship, and who is now making canvass of the state in the interest of his candidacy for governor, a posi- tion which he seeks only after the most urgent and very numerous de- mands were made upon him to do so by democrats from every section of the state, is making clean, high toned and able campaign. Large crowds meet and listen to him wher- ever he goes. He has but one oppo- nent-Jud George W. Hays, of Cam den-who was practically unknown outside of hls own and adjoining counties until he entered this race.
 MT Brundidge is well and favorably known to almost every voter in this county, especially to all old-timers, and we believe they are going to SUD- port him in this campaign. He is the logical candidate, and received over 60,000 votes ill his race for the United States senate against a man who is said to have been the ablest politician and campaigner of his day-Senator Jeff Davis.
 Hon. s. Brundidge is an able and clean man. He promises to put the state upon high plane politically, and goodness knows, it needs to be renovated in that respect. He will make no promises or trades for votes. He is a candidate and asks your sup port solely upon his own merits, and, if elected, will go into the governors office untrammelled, and free agent to govern as he deems best for the whole people.

MARIANA AND THE PRESS,

The Gem of the St. Francis Val ley" read the banner hanging on the outer walls of Marianna, on the oc.a- sion of the meeting of the Arkansas Press Association in that city Tues day and Wednesday of this week. And the little gem of a city surely sparkled with the brilliancy of diamond in hospitality, courtesy and sociabily. Every house was decorated with bunt- ing, and myriadS of colored electric lights arched the streets. and the re ceptlOn committee, in fact all the citizens, kept the delegates moving sightseeing and accepting hospitali. ties.
 Our space is too limited to give the proceedings of the Press meeting. and our object is simply to speak of live town.
 The writer knew Marianna when it was only wide place" on the river bank, and has made but one or two wis it's since it put on the garb of town. And on this visit surprise indeed met his eyes. A city planner said, ITO make people love a city you must make your city lovely" and Marian. na has followed his advice, as is evi- denced by it's well paved streets, con- crete sidewalks, modern storehouses. magnificent hotel. beautiful streets lined with elegant residences, it's Elks Home, Masonic temple, costly church editices, and it's lovely park, with it's Lee monument in memory of the dead heroes. Everywhere progressiveness is manifest; and mixing with it's citi- zens, we soon found out the secret of the city's prosperity - the people pull together"
 We are indebted to MT. and Mrs. Julius Simmons for charming and de- llghtful hospitalities, and the recol- lection of the dining will ever remain green in our memory, like the oasis in the desert. To those live men. Mes. SITS. W. B. Mann and Jake Shaul. we are also indebted for lots of good things.

Francis Valley.

Francis Valley"
 Our Mir. Vadakin fully intended to spend at least few hours in Marian na with the boys" but business en- agreements so engrossed his time that he\was unable to go. He was there in spirit. however, and knows from former experiences just what a good time and glad welcome he missed Long may she grow.
 The 4 Association adjourned Wednes- day evening sine die, and greatly en- joyed grand reception and ball at the Elks Home that night.
 It was their intention to go to Memphis by way of Wynne and the Iron Mountain, but this plan was changed at the last moment, and the party arrived here on the morning train from Mariana, spending several hours here, and taking the Rock Island at l0:20 for Memphis.
 Forrest City had no knowledge of their coming and stopping here for this length of time, and no previous preparations had been made to enter tain them in any way. But Forrest City is always equal to any occasion, and it was soon known that the edi tors were in town, and hurried ar engagements were made togive them a ride about the city in automobiles. Accordingly, representatives of The Times, aided by Mir. John Grobmyer and others, informed owners of ma chimes, and shortly nearly every auto mobile in town was at the disposal of the editors and their ladies. and every one who wished to do so was given a most enjoyable ride over the city, and some few were taken to Madison by MT. s. P. Mcdaniel and shown the fine steel wagon bridge across the St. Francis river, and the route of the Cross-State Highway explained 10 them in detail, so that they will each become boosters for that project
 The editors and ladies seem to have enjoyed their short stay here, and considering the fact that our citizens had no notice of their coming, Forrest City did itself proud in entertaining them as well as it did.
