The Congressional Campaign.

OU lar dS GUILTY Ie
concerned the campaign for con-
gress has been rather quiet. Mr..
Gambler has sent out a circular
letter to every voter in Noxubee
(the same sent to every voter in
the district and Mr.. Brooks has
made two speeches here. one at
Lynn Creek and one at Nashua
vile. Mr.. Gambler is very popu-
lar in this county and heretofore
has always been a prime favorite
here. but this time he has rum
ming against him not onlya strong
and popular man, but a Noxubee
county man. So the question
here is rather whether Brooks
will beat Gambler two to one, or
four to one in Noxubee rather
than who will carry the county.
It is a foregone conclusion that
Noxubee will stand by Noxubee
the question is how thoroughly.
From other parts of the dis
trict reports most fattering to
Brooks are received. 1t is in thu
northern end of the district, Mr..
Candler's home region, that the
contest is hottest, and it is there
that Mr.. Brooks is mostly wag-
ing his fight. Men prominent ir
politics there predict that Brooks
will carry Ittawamba and Prem.
tiss, both counties with large
white populations and large votes,
with Alcorn. Candler's home
county. in doubt, Monroe, Lown
des and Oktibbeha are regarded
as doubtful territory, both sides
claiming them and both hopeful
of them, and both fearful of
them. They are in truth doubt
full counties, but Brooks has the
advantage in this way-in each of
them he is sure of a large vote.
If all 60 against him, it will be
by a small vote, and all may go
for him by a small vote, possibly
by a large vote. Tishimingo will
probably go for Gambler, with a
good vote for Brooks, Lee is the
most doubtful county in the dis
trict. 1t is a big county, a live
county and a county that, politi-
cally, is a wise guy" fully alive
to Lee county's interest. Up
there they know the value of pol
itics. of which fact the fish hatch
cry and other things are the visi-
bic evidence. Lee county has a
big vote and knows it, and Lee
county wants to name the con-
gresham and will do it, if posi-
BILE. Mr.. Gambler is fully aware
of the situation and Lee county
is the citadel he seeks to capture.
Matters in other counties are sub
jugated to this.
In the meantime Brooks'friends
all over the district are active and
the man from Noxubee will be
the next congressman.

The york / have taken upon my
shoulders TO give the proper publicity
to Doctor Martin Bird, president of the
Bird Optical College and American In
stitute Of Drugless Healing has been
after realization Of what I call a brainy
man.
There's No Question
In my mind that a man as clever as
DR.. Bird should be given the greatest
amount of publicity. TO bring him be-
fore the notice of all students, and also
those who suffer from eye troubles and
ills which he has made 1t q deep study
to cure.
In the Fret Place
To my way Of thinking. any man
who a teach others and has lectured
at clinics regarding the care of the
eyes, j a proper man for n to have
your case; such a mar Is an expert and
| can't sing his praises too highly.
Don't You Think I'm Right?
l do and I'm sure everybody feels the
same. When we are Ill. when we are
in want of treatment we want the best.
we want the brainy man. the top notch
with experience to steer US on the right
road. To me such a man is DR.. Bird.
I Have Arranged
To have him meet all those who will
be interested in his college courses to
come and talk with him at the New
Macon Hotel any time during his stay,
which will be up to Monday night.
Come, meet him; it costs you nothing.
It's always worth while to meet a man
Of his standing.

swiftly-who was constantly proving himself but
a mere man, after all; a man susceptible to
woman's charms just as the greatest and strong
est men of history had proven themselves sus-
ceptible.
With the thought, Lucille seemed to change;
to shrink away from herself as though she were
defled slightly by the mere thought. But her
head was high, her cheeks sparkling as she en-
tered the first fashionable shop she came to; her
manner such that the crowding, j%ostling women
made way for her as for a queen in regal attire
instead of a young girl with habiliments torn
and dishevelled by such privations and adven-
lures as those about her never dreamed of.
And always, alongside the doors of all the
establishments she entered waiting-patiently
waiting-furtively waiting, a rather servile APP
pearing man stood, respectful, quiet, contained.

The man drew a Jewelers. glass from his
drawer and stopped to examine each stone, his
lips pursuing to vent a little whistle of awe and
admiration every few moments. After what
seemed an interminable length of time he turned
abruptly upon her, his mouth very stern.
"Where did you get this necklace, Miss? 1
presume you realize something of its value?"
NO, sir" she was frightened at his stern
manne~. "I-I found it.
The man sneered incredulously.

her of a safety she had almost for
gotten how 10 hope for. The two
boots of the pseudo owl. the instinct of terror
which had led her to Loubeques quarters barely
in time to rescue the precious papers and rubies
from the pair, the waiting automobile the butler
had arranged for himself and which she occupied
alone-all these seemed now things that mad
happened in the long ago.
Suddenly she leaned forward, beating her lit
tie fists together, urging the Mexican chauHeur
to accelerate his speed. The man smiled down at
her, shaking his head to signify he did not I'M
derstand the words, even as he stepped on the
clutch and shot the car forward like a huge
arrow newly released from the bow.
Like a living thing, all a-tremble with his
precious cargo. t~hrobbing with the sacredness OF
his race, the car leaped through the night, eating
up the zigZag stretch of road like some giant
monster, then spewing it forth again and con-
tinuing his orgy. And behind omewher upon
the same road. here was another machine with
a determined man in it, a man who had never
yet allowed machine or man or even the ele-
ments to thwart him.
Then came the dull crunching sound from
before her. The car swerved viciously, swung in
such an abrupt circle she chung to the side of
her seat TO avoid being hurled out. The driver
righted his machine swiftly, dexterously and she
started to heave a huge sigh of relief.
But only started to. For the front wheels
suddenly slipped, seemed smoothly to be giidlng
upon a surface of nothingness, clawing for a
foot-hold. The chauffeur reversed heavily, fought
with his wheel, but vainly.
Then the heavy car lost balance, tilted heav-
iv and rolled down-down-down-
Lucille felt no fear. 1t was all too deadly
for that. She was only conscious, even as her
tiny hands clutched the edge of her seat. of a
droning sound from behind that was growing
into the rvthmic hum of a motor car. And even
as she recognized the sound, her hands loosened
their grip and pressed the precious papers more
fervently TO her breast.
Came a long period of delicious languor. of
sinking. much as though she foated upon ether.
A harsh. crunching jolt and blackness-merciful
Inconsistencies that closed black shutters across
the mental vision of her and brought a sweet
smile to the lips that had been frightened so long.

MORAN HOPES TO
LAND HEAVYWEIGHT
TITLE IN PARIS

New York, June 24.-One thing
that appears to be as certain and in
evitable as taxes and death is that
the Jack Johnson-Owen Moran scrap
in Paris will be real fight. There
was talk of q frame-up-certainly
There most always is just before n
fight OF this caliber. But the only
frame-up. II any, will be double
crossing that each fighter will try
to put over on the other one.
Just put it down that Jack John
son cares about as much for that
championship title as he does for
both his eyes and his two legs. His
pride in the title is exactly like the
pride of the average down South
darkey in his glaring lodge rega1ia
on parade.
Jack Johnson. with superabund-
ance of confidence and conceit. will
tote into that fight on June 81 ev-
erything he has in the way of de-
fense and punch. Johnson knows
the jeers and howls of delight that
would arise from some $4,000. 900
American throats should Moran slip
over sleep-producer.
johnson also knows and realizes
that If he goes in and fights like the
big black that humbled Jeffries at
Reno. and wins. he will have it said
of him. in spite of his disgusting
morality. or rather lack Of it. that
he Is grand fighter. For that much
Of his makeup fight-lovers will hold
admiration. Once more take the tip
that Jack Johnson will fight with all
that's in him.
Just how much is left in Johnson
after a year Of Paris debauches re-
mains for Owen Moran to discover.
Moran Is far above the average
fighter in intelligence and intellect.
Better, he is pretty good two-fisted
fighting man. But Moran's intelli-
gence and superior intellect have
made him map out course and car
ry 1t through to the best of his abil-
ity.
Moran has no idea that he will
have it easy for minute. He be-
lieves, on the other hand. and many
others hold the same theory. that
Jack Johnson will furnish Moran
with a lot Of trouble in the first
half of the battle.
Moran wants only to last that
long. After that. he says, he expects
Johnson's condition to begin to show
and to furnish the chance for him to
bring the title back to America on
white mans head.

Appeals had little effect.
Police and sheriff's officers were
inactive during the riot and dyna-
hitting Some effort was made to
prevent damage to property other
| than that of the miners union, but
the officials took the position that 1t
would cause far greater damage to
life and property to attempt to pre-
vent the men from destroying what
they asserted belonged to them.
Sheriff Driscoll denied today that
his men entered the hall or they
fired any shots during the rioting.
The first shots came from the hall
where the meeting was in progress.
The killing Of Ernest J. Noy had
the effect of infuriatinS the crowd
and soon hundreds of men were fir
ing pistols. aiming mainly at the
windows of the union hall or firing
into the air.
Whether under existing conditions
the mines will be continued in opera

day by the managers of the operating
companies.
