eli a subscription list with thie
object of raising a Bryan cam

We w;sh to impress upon our

money to conduct a national cam

AIr. Bryan victorious unless the
campaign committee is provided
with sufficient means to make a
strong and vigorous campalgn.
We therefore hope that all of our
readers will contribute at least
one dollar to this fniid. Antyone

THE NATCHEZ ELECTION,
Chief of Police Ramsey has been
paid a compliment by a majbrity of
the electors who patteltpated in yes
terday's primary which any man
should appreciate and, frobmi his re
marks last evening, he is senible to
all that the majorty vote implied and
is truly grateful therefor. Both can
didates received a higher vote than
was given them in the first event, and
and there was a higher vote polled,
an increase of M, with Chief lt#mE6y
making a gain that ltaked btit one
of the nuatmbf teoefed by Doughty
Who wds li te first taeA. In that
primary Doughty received 110 votes.
Ramsey's gein was 109, as he received
366 votes In the first primary.
Ityan's vote in the first primary was
407. Yesterday It wris 483, showing
an increase of 66.
The absence of the soldier *bte is
believed to have been fatal to the
cause of Ryan, at any rates the ma
jority vote has been given to Chief
Ramsey. It is an endorsement of his
official conduct and it is given by a
majority of the white electors of Nat
chez, every one of whom has ex
pressed his satisfaction with the work
performed by the Chief.--Natchez

T. H. HARRIS TO SUCCEED ?
ASWELL. 9
A special to the Times-Democrat ii
from Baton Rouge, under date of 3rd [i
inst.; says: 2
"Information received here to-day s
from authoritative sources in New Or- s
leans is to the effect that the Erst act 7
of Gov. Sanders on his return to the s
Capital to-morrow will be to appoint 9
Thos. H. Harris of Claiborne parish 10
as the successor of Jas. B. Aswell, i
State Superintendent of Education, li
who tendered his resignation to the 12
Governsf to asreept the presidency of
the State Normal School. The ap- 2
pointment of Mr. Harris is regard- 2
ed here as a most graceful act on the a
part of the Governor, as the appoint
ment is said to be strictly non-pbliti
cal, and based entirely upon the fit
ness of the appointee for the position,
the Executive pursuing the policy of
not allowling political affllatlons to en
ter into the school systeti of the State. ki

This pariah, as have also other parts
of the State, has gotten entirely too pr
much fain for the good of crops of ail co
kinds. Rain has fallen every day since pe
Sunday a week ago, making to-date TI
eleven days of rain fall. Such a spell th
for the latter part of July or the first ly
of Angut is father unrprecedented in
deed. Another thing that is regarded pe
as being stetehat peculiar and out
of th6 ordinaru), is that fn the suthmer of
very little raif usually falls in the pc
morning and ~t nightaut comes in the
evening between three and six o'clock, W
accor.panied by more or less thunder pE
and lightning. The recent rains have e0
been heaviest in the morning and at
night, with practically no thunder and in
lightning st alt. We are having s.re
"cool days in August," and taking the he
situation all in all, it is a spelt qufte ni
