trayal of his sister. to pardon Miller should
the trial result in his conviction.
When the governor addressed the audi
enCe he ignored the Miller matter. Allen
repeated the charge in his rejoinder and in
reply, stating that he stood ready to prove
his assertion at any moment
When Allen finished his rejoinder the
governor jumped quickly to his feet and
said:
The man who originated that story IS a
liar and slanderer, and l can prove il when
ever necessary
Allen Immediately arose and said:
And l demand those proofs at this Ino-
ment. | dare you to exhibit them"

l challenge you to produce the evidence on
which you base your Infamous charge.
Then l will produce my documents to show
that it is false. l have them In my pocket

Allen arose and made the statement that
his authority for the charge was the law
firm of Coleman & McClurg of Greenwood,
and that he would have their statement in
the case reduced To writing at the earliest
possible moment. OF course, the facts
came to the attention OF the law firm. and
Judge 5. r. Coleman has prepared a writ

The statement credits Judge Coleman with
making the positive charge that the gov

Philippine Proverbs

FROM the Science Monthly.
In his proverbs the Malay shows q match
less use of metaphor and imagery his
words having the softness of the Jungle
breeze, and at the same time the grimness
OF the jungle shades. Nowhere does the
nature of his race or the peculiar genius of
terse, pithy sayings which the Malay uses
TO sWeeten his speech or lend effectiveness
to 1t. The real Malay is creature of the
forest or the sea, whence he draws his
livelihood, and it is but natural that he
should envelop his daily and perhaps dan
gerous life with homeiy philosophy. He
loves the freedom which he enjoys: take
MIN away from 1t and he eats his heart out
IN Inconsistencies. Though you feed jungle
fowl from a golden plate, it will return to
the jungle again" In his humble life he
has discovered that blood, be it good or
bad, counts for something. and he thinks
of the forest lairs; "a kitten and sma i,
but tigers cub" He is beset with dam
gers by sea and land often he is between
the devil and the deep. 'One may escape
the tiger and fall into the jaws of the
crocodile He recognizes the inevitable
and draws what conclusion he can. when
the Prov is wrecked the shark gets his fill
"a Stoical recognition of i'll winds ''or
rear of the ghost he hugs the corpses," is
often the solution of his dilemma. Some
times he INDUCES in drollery but is never
unphiloSophical. ITO love ones children
one must weep for them now and then: to
love ones wife one must leave her now
and them The language is full of such
expressions: they are the natural products
OF the speech Of poetical and nature-lov-
ing folk.

John Allen and Ex-GOy
McLaurin in Hot Debate.

A dispatch from Jackson, Miss, says:
Private" John Aliens bitter denunciations
of Governor McLaurin in the campaign
which the two are making for the Missis-
sppf senatorship have almost resulted in
personal conflict between the TIVE men, and
the situation even now is decidedly threat
ening. An explanation is apparently due
from one side the other, as the lie has
been all but passed.
Throughout the campaign the joint de-
bates between Governor McLaurin and Rep
resentative Allen have been filed with per-
scnaIities and acrid utterances, ofttimes
bordering on personal insult. The climax
was reached on Saturday. Allen and Nc
Laurin met in joint debate Saturday night
at little town over in eastern Mississippi
called Suqualena-. The place is out of reach
OF telegraph or telephone wires.
