The 0at Crop.

The planting of oats in Mis-
sissippi, according to the besl
estimates that can be had, is thai
there is an increase Of 100 per
cent over that of any previous
year. An active campaign insti-
tuted last fall by all the various
forces and influences aided very
materially in bringing this result.
A large part of this crop was
planted with seed grown in Mis-
sissippi, which has been found
the best for our soil conditions.
Some damage has been done,
due TO cold on the late paintings
in the northern part of the State,
but the crop as a whole is intact.

Lieut.. Gov. Bilbo
Challenges the Field

! notice from the press reports
Of your speeches in the different
parts Of the State in the presen,
race for the governorship, that
each and all Of you have much 10
say in reference to your desire
for joint debate with Bilbo.
am also aware of the fact, as
well as the people of Mississippi,
that you four gentlemen are max
ing combined night upon me, il
being conceded by one and all
that IN the present race for the
governorship, Iii is the field
against Bilbo." This is ~ potent
until am sure that none of you
would have the hardihood to deny
same.
Now in yiew of the fact that It
would be u physical impossibility
for me to meet all OF you gentle-
men at one time in joint debate
and further, that it would be
manifest injustice to three OF you
for me to single out one of your
number for the purpose Of a joint
discussion, | hereby challenge all
of you jointly for a series of
debates to be held in the various
counties Of the State upon the
following conditions;
will agree and do hereby
challenge all of you to n series of
Joint debates, meeting one of your
number on each successive day
in the following order:
Reilly, Stovail, Quin and Tally,
and then repeat in the same order
until the close of the campaign.
That is to say. that will meet
Mr.. Reilly every fourth day, Mr.
Stovsll every fourth day, and so
on. Said challenge is made upon
the one condition that while | am
engaged in a joint discussion with
one of you four gentlemen, that
the other thee remain quiet, or
rather not make any other speech
es at any other point.
lam sure that you and the people
of Mississippi will agree that this
condition is perfectly fair and just
to me, since it would hardly be
fair FOR me to meet each of you in
joint debates and then let the
other three be "hammering" on
me at the same time at some other
point. OF course, there will be
no objection so far as am con-
cerned in having all OF you GENTLE
men present at these joint dis
Permit me to modestly suggest
thatin accepting this proposition,
no injustice will be done to you,
because by meeting one of you
every fourth day, you will then
have a chance TO speak to more
people than you are now having
10y speaking every day by your
self, as all the reports show that
your crowds are very small.
Now if you gentlemen can agree
among yourselves to accept this
challenge, the time, place, order,
and rules OF debate, can be ar
ranged by committee of eight
four to be selected by myself
and the other four 10 be selected
by you.-each Of you selecting
one of the four.
Now, unless you gentlemen
accept this invitation, | think i,
would be becoming in you to say
no more about joint debates with
..Bilbo."
| shall await your joint reply
with pleasure, but OF course, dc
not expect your reply until you
have haG sufficient time to con
suit Governor Brewer and judge
Powell, and others.

Unued health and happiness,

Has Faith In Quick
 Remedy For Catarrh
Lee 6 osseod Guarantees That Hyo- mel Will Relieve the Worst Cases
 of catarrh in Norwich.

When one of the most reputable concerns in Norwich guarantees that
 a medicine will produce benefit or they
 will refund the money, it speaks vol
 umes for the merits of that remedy. It is in this way that Lee & Osgood
 are selling Hyomei. the treatment that has helped so many cases of both acute and chronic catarrh in Norwich and vicinity.
 Hyomei is not pill nor is it a spray or a lotion that must be rubbed in It is an oil, the air of which you just breathe in your nose, throat and lungs by the aid of an inhaler, that comes with every outfit. Benefit will usually be seen from the very first treatment. This air destroys all germ life in the
 air passages and lungs and enriches and purifies the blood with the addt- tional ozone it supplies. It banishes catarrh of the head and throat and respiratory organs. Wherever these
 mucous membranes contain catarrhal
 germs, there Hyomei will do it's work
 ment, the air you breathe will be
 found like that on the mountains high above the sea level. where grows the
 belsamic trees and plants which make the air pure by giving off volatile an- tiseptic fragrance that is healing to
 the respiratory organs.
 The complete Hyomei outfit is mex pensive and includes an inhaler, drop per and sufficient Hyomei for several weeks treatment.
 Remember that if Hyomei does not
 relieve you Lee & Osgood will refund your money. This is a good time to get rid of catarrh by this natural method and prevent catarrhal colds
 that are so common at this season.
