do for Mississippi that which no
other organization could do to-

toward forming these different
bodies into AN organization for the
purpose indicated. The honor is
due to Meridian that Mississippi
was represented at the Huntsville

honor of combining the bodies
named INTO an organization for the
betterment of our state would be
of much greater renown, and at

The cost of the Dewey demon.

at about S20,OOO,OOO. This quite
a large sum, it seems to US, to ex-
pend to do honor to man who
having a splendid navy and the
brayest fighters in the world to
back HIM, succeeded IN sinking a
dilapidated second class navy.
We believe in paying Just tri-
butte to merit, but we are not a
hero worshiper, and it does look
like such a demonstration was un-
called for. There are countless
men IN "Dixie Land who could
have done the job as well, and
better, and had the discretion, af-
ter having destroyed the Spanish
fleet, to turned the prov of his
