Noxubee's Orphans

Mrs. Nee olIum, living in the John
Hauenstien old home has charge of
ten orphan children, the sex being
equally divided, ranging in age from
fifteen months to twelve years. Five
of them are the children of a Mr..
Beard living near Allgood's mill, who
is i'll and unable to ARE for them, and
they have for some time been in a
most destitute and pitiable condition.
When they were brought to Macon
what clothing they had was very thin
and ragged. They are very bright
children, and have evidently been
raised to obey. The other five are
children of MIR. W. T. Watt, an old
Confederate veteran who died recently
at Cooksvllle. Their mother was un-
able to care for them and they we're
brought to Macon to be sent to an
orphan asylum.
Mrs. McCollum is agent for two
orphan asylums in the state, but she
haze been notified that neither is able
at this time to accept another orphan.
Under the law passed at the late legis-
lature the county can bind them out to
proper persons, and a bond will not be
requiree as under the old law. Appli-
cations will be received at the October
meeting of the board. Supervisor
Pagan has expressed himself as being
very anxious to find hCmes for the I'M
fortunate children.

The complaint of Germany that
its soldiers in Russian prisons are
being barbarously treated, is a
reminder that, during the Civil
war in this country, out of 270,-
600 Federal prisoners in Con-
federate hands, only 22,576 died.
whereas out of 220, 900 Confed-
crates in Union prisons, 26, 436
died. Libby and Andersonville
were offset by Camp Douglas,
Rock Island and Johnson's
Island. The figures are histori-
cal and are given in Stanton's
report. On their face they tes-
tify in a percentage Of 8 to II in
favor of Confederate humane.

is especially gratified at the Inn

given to him in his own county
where out of about 1900 ballots
marked. more than 1000 bore crosses
opposite his name"
II am highly pleased over the re-
suits of the primary election" said
Mr.. Davis. II consider the result an
Endorsement Of the policies l a1vo-
cate rather than a personal victory.
II made my campaign on the prop
osition to apply methods in Use by
successful business institutions to the
management of the state affairs, and
to this fact contribute the good vote
received in all parts of the state.

faithful and efficient work done in
my behalf by many friends through
out the state, and realize the i'm
portant part they had in shaping re-
suits.
81 feel under obligations to the
many country newspapers for the
uniform consideration shown me; not
only did they manifest a desire to
inform their readers of the issues of
the campaign, but showed fine re-
spect for the spirit of the primary
law, with rare exceptions showing
they were actuated by high motives
and did not expect to reap har-
vest from candidates for office. Any
suspicion that they are not guided by
honest convictions does them a
great injustice.
II am much pleased over the large
of congratulatory kilograms
and letters received since the result
Of the primary became known. These
have come from almost every county
Of the state, and from men and wo-
men in all the walks of life. 1t in
dicates a united party and a united
desire to restore the Republican par
ty to power
II shall make the best campaign
it is possible for me to make, and
expect to visit every county in the
state. With a good Organization and
an earnest effort on the part of Re-
publicans l feel that we shall elect
the entire ticket from top to bot
