main in the office as deputy, which
is gratifying to his friends. He has
discharged the duties of postmas.

MR.. L E STATEMENT.

President j. L. Haley has a
statement to the people of Leflore
county in this paper, which should
be carefully perused by one and
all. Mr.. Haley does not dodge a
single charge against his official
conduct. He takes the charges
up separately and refutes them
clearly and satisfactorily. He
shows conclusively that the loans
made to members of his family
are absolutely secured, and that
the county is not in the least dan
ger of losing a cent on either OF
them. His. explanation of the
other charges against him are
equally as clear and explicit, and
evidence the fact that he has
acted in good faith with the PEG.
pie in his official conduct.

over, thro' village or city or town, and
folks in garnet or Glover are passing

they poison the story, and ndd many

Mr.. Cavett sprung a little joke in
the house yesterday morning.
He arose from his chair and read
from the columns of a morning news,
paper published in Jackson a personal
that told the world that ''W. s. Berry,
of Greenwood. was in the city yester,
day on a business and pleasure trip"
Mr.. Cavett held Q copy of the paper
aloft, and said he had noticed that Mr.
Barry had been mentioned several
times Of late as being in the city go
business and pleasure, - and he wanted
TO move that the privilege of the
floor be extended to the distinguished
citizens Of Lefore County.
There was a ripple of applause when
Representative Barry arose from his
seat and, proceeding to a point in front
Of the speakers stand, began to make
a speech expressing his appreciation
at the action Of the house. He spoke
Of various and sundry things in the
short and happy speeeherette, saying
words failing to adequately express his
gratitude that he had been accorded
the privilege Of the floor, with which
by the way he held ever since the
extra session last summer, when he
was sworn in as the duly authorized
legislator Of Lefore eounty.--Jackson

yARDAMAN WINS IN FIGHT
OVER NEGRO.

1T is reported that President
Wilson, owing to the public state
ment of Senator Vardaman that
he will oppose confirmation OF the
nomination OF any negro to an
appointive office over which the
senate has jurisdiction, will not
nominate for reappointment Judge
Robert f. Terrell, a negro who
has served one term, as justice
here of the municipal court. It IS
said that because of Senator Var
daman's avowed objection, which
was personally stated by Senator
Vardaman to Mr.. Wilson at the
White House, that the President
will refrain from renomlnating
Terrell, and bring the dispute to
an end with Mr.. Vardaman." -
Washington Special.
When a Washington correspon-
dent of a New Orleans paper sent
forth this story, of how the Mis-
sissippi Chandelier had cut the
Presidents comb, White Chief
stock doomed high, and White
Chief tribesmen Wanted loud.
Rut there seems to have been an
error in the report-in spite OF
the personally stated" and por-
tentous announcement of opposl-
ton by Senator Vardaman, the
President has had the hardihood
to persist. On the same day he
sent in the name of Vardaman's
brother for confirmation as mar
shall of the Northern Mississippi
District, Robert E. Terrell, a ne
gro, was renominated as a justice
of Washington municipal court.
And the capital roof did not fall
inl Both the said nominees are
now before the senate for confir-
nation, and that there will be a
Vardaman clarion call for the sem
ate to fall in on the color line, is
matter of course. -- Vicksburg
