We are all Mississjppians; let's

1t is easy to vote bonds; but pay
ing the interest and principle will
set the teeth of the children on

Slate tickets and ring tickets are
good things to smash. No matter

success spells injury to the people.
There was q faction for Caesar

darkness. This paragraph needs

That was q wise rule OF the press
association to demand cash with all
political announcements Some
mighty good men have forgotten to
pay their announcements and other
dues after defeated; and some OF
those who have been successful
seem to lave a lofty 'scorn for the
flight Of time and the brevity of
human events.
The whiligig of time brings in
his revenges in politics as we'll as

Let's Have No Boiling

We note n great majority of the
papers supporting Senator Varda-
man in the recent primary take
their defeat good humoredly and
declare they are ready to support
the Democratic nominee with full
force.
There are few who appear peeved
and one even intimates it will sup
port the Republican nominee for
Senator. A paper taking this 20.
sition is no longer worthy of re-
spect by the white Democrats of
this State. ANY person who would
enter a Democratic primary and
because his candidate was defeated
olt or threaten to bot the party
is unworthy to be classed with de-
cent people. The sooner We get a
line on these fellows and expose
them the better for the party.
We can't all win, and let's lift
our hats to our friends cheeriully
when they "wallop" us, and all
join hands In support of the nomi-
nee. There will be other Demo-
cratic elections in which the losers
now may be the winners then. 80

WHO is to hinder the voting of

law? Ii il stands as II is today a
plantation manager or owner could
easily vote his hundred or SO ne

most impossible to say they were

Weekly.
We don't know who is editing
Vardaman's Weekly during Major
Vardaman's absence in Colorado
but he is densely ignorant regard
ing the election laws of Mississippi.
In the first place an absent vot>
er must have all the qualifications
required of any other voter; he
must be duly registered, have paid
his poll taxes and other taxes aud
his name must appear on the
poll lists as approved bv the
county election commissioners.
Then, too, to acquire the priv
leRe of casting a vote while not
actually appearing at his proper
voting precinct. he must make q
sworn affidavit before q justice of
the peace or other qualified officer
that he will not be in the county
in which he is qualified to vote on
the day of the election in which
his absent vote is cast.
These clauses alone make the ab
sent voter law as safe "a the laws
covering the man who actual, fills
out his vote in the polling booth
and puts it in the ballot box with
his own hands.
