EDITORIAL

This paper notes approvingly the
entrance into the congressional race
in the End district Of Mississippi OF
A. G. Anderson, editor OF the South
ern Sentinel, published at Ripley,
in Tippah County. Albert Ander
son is not only one of the best edi-
tors in the state, but one of our
ablest public men and now in the
full prime of his powers. He is n
natural born orator; one with that
subtle and mysterious gift OF voice
and flow of language that strums
readily and forcibly upon the heart
strings of his hearers; he is by train
ing well qualified to serve as a ma
tional law maker, having served with
distinction in both houses of the
Mississippi legislature. Its the priv
ilege of the people OF his district to
say who shall serve them, but we
want to let them know in advance
that there are people outside OF that
district in the state who believe that
they will do themselves honor to Sc
lect Anderson as their next con-
gresham and that he will shed Ius-
tre upon Mississippi S already proud
name in the halls Of congress.
