DEMOCRATIC NOMINEES*
FOR PRESIDENT •
Grover Cleveland,
OF NEW YOltK.
FOR VICE-PRESIDENT: •
A. E. SleVenson,
OF ILLINOIS.
FOR CONGRESS.
Thos. R. Stockdale,
OF TIKK COUNTY.
EDITORIAL,
Let’s elect Cleve, Steve a&d Stock.
The Gulf & Snip Island road may
be considered as a “thing of the
past.”
As long as the mild weather pre
vails the Gulf coast needs not expect
the Northern winter visitors.
Our friends at Pearlington are not
forgotten. The Echo has completed
arrangements for a correspondent at
that thriving town.
The columns of The Echo arc
always to all communications on pub
lic matters of interest to the county,
city and Sea coast.
Messrs. Chas. M. Rhodes and Jno.
T. McDonald, the present incum
bent, are announced candidates for
the mayorship of Pass Christian.
The Echo, always on the right
side of everything, predicts that the
country will be carried by the Dem
ocrats next Tuesday. Mark the pre
diction.
Preparations are being completed
for the next Supreme Council of the
Farmer’s Alliance and Industrial
Union to be held in Memphis, the
15th, inst.
We advise everybody who has the
sufficient land along the Gulf coast
to plant pecans. The pecan is pay
ing handsomely and the market will
always command a good price.
A bountiful supply of water and
a better equipped fire department in
Bay St. Louis would soon lessen the
rate of insurance paid, adtrthere cer
tainly would be less loss of property.
Where has Waveland’s big hotel
project gone to is what our people
want to know. The Echo is confi
dent that Waveland will yet get the
big hotel. The Waveland hotel pro
ject is not dead but simply asleep.
Don’t forget to vote next Tuesday
and be sure to vote right. Be care
ful in marking yonr ticket and be
sure you make the cross opposite the
proper names. The least error may
cause the loss of your vote ~t 6 the
Democratic party.
The Pass Christian Beacon says
“the Olympic TmtSSs band will soon
order magnificent uniforms. All
their earnings have been laid aside
for that purpose, and last week a
prominent and public-spirited citizen
donated SIOO for the purpose.
One of life first numbers of the
Headlight, of Terry, Miss., has
reached our desk. It is of the same
size of Tuf. Echo and its advertising
patronage reflects great credit upon
the business men of Terry. We wish
it the success it deserves.
We give thanks to our friends and
the State press for the many kind
amUcomplimentary words giving us
in behalf of our efforts in publishing
a local paper worthy of everybody’s
patronage in the city and county.
Whether meant or not it is neverthe
less encouraging.
i ~ ' ■—
The less local advertisements a
newspaper carries, the poorer the lo
cality from where it is issued. Poor
advertising patronage of a newspa
per indicates ignorance, poor busi
ness judgment and a lack of public
spirit and enterprise on the part of
the busines men.
As noted in our last issue, Gaines
ville is to have a box factory. The
benefit for that fortunate town to be
derived from such enterprise cannot
be over-estimated. It will give em
ployment to the people of its locality
and the immediate vicinity, and will
lend a tendency towards attracting
capitalists and manufacturers.
HOW TO MAKE OUR SECTION
PROSPEROUS.
It is really a pity that the innum
erable advantages and charms of Bay
St. Loiiis are not known to the outside
world. Our attractions should be
known, and to succeed towards this
direction the place should be exten
sively advertised. The Echo has it
from good and first authority that a
gentleman of the Bay, well versed on
the subject, intends to write the nat
ural resources, wealth and the hun
dreds of inducements Bay St. Louis
and the Sea coast counties offer to
people and manufacturers, in pamph
let form and have several thousand
copies printed and distributed
throughout the North, grrtis. To
pay for his trouble and expenses he
will have several advertising pages in
the valuable work. To carry out the
above it will require considerable
time and an outlay of money, but the
author of the proposed work feels con.
fldent that the results to accrue from
the undertaking would be worth the
task. A good way to advertise this
section would be for the L. &N. R.
R., so public spirited and liberal, o
follow the plan devised and executed
by the Illinois Central road. The
I. C road, after many months labor
by one of its agents, who visited every
towmon its line, some few days ago
had published a pamphlet in which
is given a brmf but accurate descrip
tion of its different towns and the ad
vantages offered to manufacturers.
The only way to make a locality suc
cessful is advertise it.
DEMOCRATS , BE READY.
The great importance of the elec
tions to be held next Tuesday cannot
be over-estimated; the issues in
volved are vital. At no time since
the election of Abraham Lincoln in
1860 to the Presidency, which preci
pitated a war unparalled in modern
times, has an election been held, the
results of which were of so vital im
portance to the people as the elec
tion to be held on next Tuesday will
prove to he. The earthly salvation
of the South and of the whole coun
try hangs in the balance. If Demo
cracy wins, the people win and are
free, and the Nation lives; if Harri
son and radicalism win, the pluto
crats win, and we people the slaves
of monopoly, and the foundation
stone of the American Republic se
riously shattered. The duty of every
true white Southerner is plain and ex
acting. Let every good Democrat
go to the polls next Tuesday. Re
member the day, Democrats, a&d be
ready.
A WARNING TO VOTERS.
Democrats throughout the State
are being warned not to vote for Jas.
McCaskill, of Lowndes, who is a
prohibition Presidential elector, but
to vote for Jas. L. McCaskill, of
Rankin, who is the Democratic Pres
idential elector. One vote for Jas.
McCaskill, of Lowndes, will he a vote
lost for the Democratic party.
Mr. P. J. Magin, one of the Chica
go purchasers ot the Mexican Gulf
hotel, at Pass Christian, is now in pos
session of the building, having made
satisfactory arrangements to this end
with Mr. Blake. Mr, Magin will at
once have the hotel extensively im
proved and when completed will rank
with the finest hotels in the country.
How fortunate Pass Christian is.
A Georgia editor thus tells of one
of his adversities: “During our ab
sence last week a scared delinquent
slipped a dollar under our door. It
was found by ! our foreman, who im
mediately skipped to Canada. We
leave in pursuit of him at daylight
to-morrow.” * ,

This State would make a poor de
fense if invaded, the total strength of
her National Guard not exceeding
175 men. The State is credited at
the War Department with the sum of
$13,000 for arm, equipments, uni
forms, etc., but it cannot be drawn
until the Guard numbers 900 men.
A national organization, formed
for the improvement of country
roads throughout the United States
as its object, was partially organized
in Chicago the other day. The vice
presidents of the league are to be the
Governors of the States, and leagues
are to formed in each school district
of every Stale.
The church being in bad repair, a
congregational meeting was called
and subscriptions were asked for. A
close-fisted fellow gave SSO, and just
as be announced bis gift, a piece of
plastering fell and struck him on the
bead, whereupon he called out:
“Make that $100.” Then an old
deacon, astonished at his liberality,
shouted, “Oh, Lord, hit him again.”
Third Party Prcyer.
The following is the prayer of the
Third partyitss, and goes to show
that the followers of Weaver want
the earth; it is clipped from one of
our State exchanges:
Our father who art in Washington,
Benjamin Harrison be thy name, we
humbly submit to your calling, we
beseech thee to send each and every
one of us a mule and fifty dollars in
money.
Thou knowest our needs, so please
look down with tender mercy on us
poor creatures and bless us with
mulei that won’t kick, nor jump
nor eat but once a week.
Atad we beseech thee, merciful
father, to remember our bard
thoughts against thee, and for each
and every one of them send us a bless
ing in the way of a railroad, money
mints and smelting machinery, and
father send us a power of attorney to
take possession of all the land from
the Brazos river to the Bio Grande
that is unoccupied by actual settlers.
And next, kind father, we want a
few car loads of lumber in order to
build granneries to store away our
Surplus grain.
Ob, father, be with us through
this cotton season and send
electricity to destroy all boll worms
and may you advance us 20 cents on
each pound of cotton as we stow it
away. These favors we ask in the
name of J. B. Weaver. Amen.
All the Presidential candidates
have accepted the different nomina
tions, but Cleveland fand Stevenson
will now accept their election.
