"Mr. Vardaman stated that he
had absolutely no apology to
make for any measure that he
upheld or opposed during his
term in the United States Sen
ate. He stated that he had no
confidence whatever in the
President of the United States;
that President Wilson was much
more interested in the capitalists
Of the North than in the cotton
grower of tie South. "
The above is taken from the
Commercial Appeal of Sunday,
and is contained in a report of a
speech delivered at Eupora by
by Mr.. Vardaman last Friday,
when he and Lee Russell spoke
there.
We give it as our opinion that
Mr.. Vardaman has fully as much
confidence in the President as
the people should have in the
ex-senator, since the President
has never filed an injunction
against anybody who wishes to
learn how public moneys was
handled. And the voters of
Mississippi remember full well
that to this day there stands
against every man who attempts
to see how certain funds were
handled by Mr.. Vardaman while
governor of the state, an injunc-
ton which forbids a review of
the entries. Until that stain is
raised from the record, Mr..
Vardaman has no right to be
running around over the state
talking about confidence.
Relative to his record in the
Senate, the voters have already
said what they think of it. He
may not regret the stand he has
taken in Congress, but we pre-
dict that it will be a mighty long
time before he gets the voters
to the point where they will not
regret allowing him to make
such a record.
And further, we would advise
the Hon. Lee Russell that it is
bad politics to be running around
with Jas. X. as long as that
gentleman persists in casting
stones at the national admins.

Some Of the so-called wise
ones seem to be at a loss to know
why Longino is specially strong
with the union labor voters OF
the state, since he has never
made any effort to secure votes
from this quarter other than his
appeal to the whole people.
The answer is dead easy when
you call back to the LONGING

the fairness with which he adj

COIIins,JOhnstOn Speaking

Both Lieut.. Johnston and Atty.
Gen. Collins, candidates for
governor, were billed to speak
here Friday-Johnston at II in
the forenoon and Collins at $50
in the evening. Mr.. Johnston
failed to make connection at
Meridian and did not reach here
until l O'Clock in the afternoon
and did not stop but went on to
an appointment in Lee county.
But arrangements were made
for both in the evening, Mr..
Collins very kindly consenting
to divide time with his opponent
whom he says he considers out
of the running.
This being Gen. Collins ap-
pointment, he spoke first, and
was some forty minutes late be-
cause of trouble with his car. A
fairly good sized crowd had
assembled. and most of those
present stayed through the
whole affair, Notwithstanding it
was near midnight when the
last word was said.
This was Gen. Collins first
appearance here since the cam
paign opened, and many of our
citizens were anxious to hear
him in his sarcastic way go
after his opponents, which he
proceeded to do in good style, as
we'll as give an account of his
own doings since he has been in
office. Of course he recommend
ed himself rather highly as a
trust buster and told his hearers
of the vast sums he had turned
into the state treasury. 1t was
easy to see that he either thought
that Mr.. Russell is the man he
has to beat in the end or else
that he had to get by him in
order to be in the home stretch.
His speech was we'll received
and literally applauded.
This was Lieut.. Johnston s
second appearance here and that,
too, in joint debate. He seemed
to realize that his following here
was not nearly rs large as he
wouid Ike for il to be ard rhat
another had captured many
votes he had hoped to gain, for
he seemed to have lost that con-
fident air that characterized him
on his first appearance. Then,
too, the mere fact that he paid
the town a return visit is evil
dence that he thought he had
left something unsaid when
first here that might make him
votes. That something was con-
corning Mr.. Longino. In the
debate with Mr.. Russell, he
seemed scarcely to know that
| Mr.. Longino was a candidate.
This time he had seen a light
and went after Longino in good
style, going so far as to say that
if the people wanted four more
years of republican rule under
Edgar S. Wilson that they should
vote for Longino. His thrusts
seemed to please his supporters
present immensely, but we very
seriously doubt if he gathered
any strength here, and we are
certain that his speech lost him
votes should it so happen that
the old lineup candidates are
successful in getting into the
second primary.

COTTON TRADING
DULL AND NARROW
Values, However, Hold Well in
Face Of Developments OF
Bearish Nature.

Movements were yesterday extremely
narrow in a dull cotton market For
the most part trading dragged along
under the force Of professional give and
take. prices holding we'll in the face Of
many bearish developments. In the
later part of the session they went
above tho previous Anal level. the close
being steady at a gain OF to 1C points.
Among the most prominent bearish fac
tors were the serious strike disorders In

Their slight unsettlement In foreign ex-

yesterday clearer conditions over the
belt, with precipitation at no point
exceeding an inch, the highest being
registered at Little Rock, where SO
was recorded. Cloudiness, however
was present in many west Gulf States.
Liverpool cables were not up to due
and in late dealings the English market
broke rather sharply, closing approx
mately 25 penny points of on the active
list. Spots there were again slow. sales
being only 5000. Brokers operating
for British interests. usually fairly
active around the local ring, did but
very little yesterday. In fact, to round
out the situation in a few words, there
was nothing OF Importance from any
still looking on.
The tone was steady at the opening

October to 32.02 for May options. II the
start was quiet, the trading that ensued
was even more So The entire morning
range between the highs and lows did
not exceed 25 points In any OF the de-
liveries. At times there was slight
amount of domestic trade support and
some short covering, but pressure, while
heavier than support. was not sufficient
to cause market weakness.
After holding around the low levels
OF the day. some 20 to 80 points of,
the late afternoon saw an increase in
new buying with local commission
houses sending in a few orders. The
list was bid up to new highs for the
day, up some 20 to 20 from Mondays
ending, and prices held well around
those points during the final hour. At
the closing OF the day the market tone
was steady. The days feeling In
brokerage and floor circles continued
bearish.
