Tinkor's Dam, Not a swonr Word.

Tinker's Dam, Not swenr Word.
There is no profanity in saying
that any certain thing is not worth
tinker's dam, although il is 40 con.
defed by many. The expression
originated many years sgr, when
tinkering, or mending leaky tin YES
sells, was much cruder than it is
now.
In former limos the use OF resin to
check The fl wv OF solder when placed
on ito was not generally understood
at least by the rowing tinkers.
When one Of these gentlemen OF the
road found j>b, such as mending q
wash boiler or other tin household
utensil, he would get from the houpe
vile or DOMESTIC a piece Of soft
dough. y, g" .. ~" =.
With this he would build . dam
srounp the place whore he intended
t.. put his>rolder. Inside OF the
circle thus formed he poured the
melted lead. SlWhen the metal bad
cooled he would brush away the
dam OF dough that had confined il
to the desired limits. The heat had
hardened tn. heavy paste and baked
it thoroughly, so it was absolutely
OF no use for aOythings else, II be-
came'one OF the most useless thing
in the world, and there was not
enough OF it, eyon to be worth while

ment that the trusts are the product Of
protective tariff. He called up the
! existence of the trusts in free England,
alluded to the fact that the two greatest
so-cal1ed trusts in existence in the
/ United States, the anthracite coal trust
and the Standard oil trust, are not in
any way affected by the tariff as they
deal with materials that are on the
free list.
Mr.. Cooper was inclined to treat the
paramount issue''-imperia1ism a
rather humorous light. He said that it
is bugaboo used by the party of Mr..
Bryan for the purpose of diverting
attention from the financial plank IN
their platform and that it is without
ground either in reason or apprehen-
sion. He traced the history of the
events which gave rise to the cry of
imperialism, and showed the 1udi-
crousness of both imperialism" and
"mi1itarism.'
He spoke of Lincoln, Grant and other
heroes of our history; recalled their
great services to their country and re-
minded his auditors that the same
charge of ''imperiaism' and "militar-
ISM was urged against them all that
is now charged against Mckinley. He
said that it had uniformly been the
custom of the Democratic party to
charge the Republican Presidents with
the desire of becoming kings and the
Republican party with the purpose of
esta b1isl1ing mi1itarism. The argu-
ment is old and in the past has proved
false and unavailing.
Mr.. Cooper did not make an unusual
1y long speech, but he went over the
whole ground of the campaign and
went TO the pith of the matter, treating
all the questions with common sense
and still subjecting them to a keen
analysis that set them off in their true
light. He was interrupted with fire.
quent applause and at times the dem
onstrations of approval arose almost to
a tunn1t.
There was one gentleman in the au
dience who was disposed to question
the speaker, but the repartee of the
Congressman rather discouraged his
attempts.
Mr.. ]. Keck Wheeler and the Ladies'
Prosperity Quartette furnished the
music and were highly appreciated by
the audience.

WHERE'S THE BUCKETsHOP.
1t Is Reported That ''Bucketshop" Ha:
Been Operating in Kenosha. g.


Where is the bucketshop'' in Keno
sha. There is or has been one working
in the city for some time but the most
di1igent search has failed to reveal it's
location. There is evidence to believe
that the sharks have given up the
business as a bad investment, but no
record has been found of the number
of dues that the company found in
Kenosha, or the amount Of money that
was lost by the wou1d-be spectators.
The company operated under the
firm name of c. G. Thompson & Co.,
but there is no one in town who seems
to be able to give the location of the
offices Of the alleged bucketshop. The
first story in connection with the affair
comes from man named Charles
| DeChard, who was either dupe of the
company or an emp1oye of the shop
| He took with him when he left Keno
| sha a commutati ton ticket, which he
later presented to the Northwestern
company for redemption. alleging tina
he had received the ticket from the
firm of C. G. Thompson, who kept (
bucketshop in Kenosha, as a part pay
ment for a debt that was due to hin
from the company. He made thu
announcement that the company wa:

stated that the company had not beer

be compelled to close if the business
did not look up. The quotations are
supposed to have been sent to Kenoshs
from Racine by way of the telephone
lines. The matter has been referred
to the police and an effort will be made
to locate the men who are operating
the Thompson company.

CLAIMS SHE WAS ROBBED.
Madame Calwel1 Leaves Kenosha After
Losing Sixty Dollars to Robbers.

Madame Calwel1 Leaves Ken0sha After
Losing Sixty Dollars to Robbers.
Madame Ca1well, the fortuneteller,
left the city for Waukegan this morn
ing, but if the reports are true she left
the larger part of her earnings here.
Mrs. Ca1wel1 had rooms at the resi-
dence of Jerome White on Park street,
and yesterday while she was making
some purchases down town she alleges
that she was robbed. When she re-
turned home she found that she was
$50 shy and a later investigation
brought the amount up $40 more. The
money might have been lost, but the
woman considers this impossible and
claims that it was taken from her by
one of the light fingered gentry.
While down town Madame Ca1we11 was
in a number of stores and made several
purchases but she did not miss the
money until she returned to her rooms.
The case has been reported to the
police and they are investigating. So
MANY different stories have been told
in regard to the alleged robbery that
it is difficult to get at the facts in the
case

Railroad.

We have tried to arouse the PEG.
pie of Canton and Madison county
to a realization of how much i'm
portance a railroad from the
coal fields of Alabama to the
Mississippi river at Vicksburg
would conduce to their material
prosperity, but they seem to be
in a perfect state of lethargy so
far as their financial future is
concerned. A town or a country
is just what the people make it.
Kosciusko is erecting a 1925 900
factory, a $50, 1000 oil mill, has
electric light and water works
and two lumber mills. Yazoo
City is erecting a factory and
has also the other adjuucts mem
toned. Canton and this county
lags behind and must suffer in
trade and material prosperity.
This county aud Vicksburg could
at least build a railroad from
Canton to that city which would
be of incalculable benefit to
both. 1t ought to be plain to
every farmer land owner and
purchaser of supplies in this
county why this should be so.
If you have any interest in these
things, come to Canton on the
10th.

Old State House

The question is being asked
what to do with the old State
house. Tear it down. sell all the
material possible and sell the
land and put all the money 10
the State Treasury as a special
fund to adorn and beautify the
grounds of the new Capitol with
statues of Mississippi's great
men, fountains, trees, walks,
seats, pools for fish, avlries to
attract, delight and elevate the
people. 1t has been reiterated
time and again from every nook
and corner that the old house
was cracked, out of plum aud
leaked to the ground floor. SO
it would be folly to repair it for
sanitarium, library or any
other purpose. 1t would be a
hole into which the State would
have to be continually pouring
money and we have too many OF
them already. SELL 1T.
