The final requiem has been played
for the populist party in Mississippi.
A few of the faithful met in Kemper
county a few days ago to continue the
organization, but the meeting was a
failure, and finally closed with the
declaration that''the ashes from of
life's extinguished tapers have fallen
and the light Of existence has gone
out forever" Sad, how sad, How the
mighty hath fallen. Hon. Frank
Burkitt has lost his interest in the
principles of the party which was not
born to die, and is expected soon to
announce his rejoining of the demo-
cratic party. Other leaders have re-
manned silent. The life Of the populist
party has been an eyentful one, but
its death has been unattended by any.
thing of interest. Peace to its ashes.

WARNING TO BLIND TIGERS.

We believe there has dawned for
Grenada a better era in regard to the
Illegal retailing of liquor. 1t is unde-
niable that the business has been con-
Quoted here in the past almost in the
open. The reputation OF the town
abroad has been anything but good in
this regard. blind tigers" have
Hourished. but the recent session Of
circuit court wrought a change. Sew
eral of the worst offenders were forced
to leave town in order to escape the
penalty which the judge was sure to
infiict. 1t is thought these men will
stay away. 1t is to be hopedlsO, at
least. Others, however, were caught
and must either jump their bonds or
stand trial. 1t is evident that a great
change has been wrought. The peo-
pie rs a whole seem glad Of it, and
their joy is not confined to the ranks
Of the prohibitionists. A number OF
the leading citizens are determined
that the tigers" shall be broken up
and will make afidavits and have war
rants sworn out whenever they appear
above the surface. Whenever these
warrants are issued the officers will
raid the places. The determination
is deep seated and we firmly believe
the men who have so expressed them
selves are sincere in what they say.
Judge Stevens pointed out to q
number of citizens while he was here
a law by which dodgers of the grand
jury may be caught. At any time
one or more citizens may go to the
circuit clerk and have him issue g
summons for a person to appear before
the next grand jury that assemblies
The officers duty will be to serve thi.
at once, so those of our people who
fear the grand jury will have to adopt
different tactics to evade telling what
they know.
This constant overriding Of the Law
in Grenada has become d~isgraceful
and the citizenship has a right to b.
indignant. The illegal retailers hat
better take warning and let wei
enough alone. Judge Stevens ha'
said he will show no mercy, and he il
a man of his word. Enough of thu
people are determed to back him u
in his effort to break up the bushes
to enable him to do SO, and the viola
tors had better be very careful if the,
do not want to experience his judicla
wrath. "A word to the wise Shout,
be sufficient"

AT the Grand Lodge of the Elks, in
session last week in Salt Lake City,
Utah, that order adopted a rule abso-
lutely prohibiting street fairs and
carnivals being held under the auspices
Of Elks lodges. The new rule will
take effect January l, 1908. This
ban on the street fair by this popular
order will tend to make the institution
still unpopular than lit has
already become. The street fair has
degenerated within the past year OF
two until it has become no more than
a collection Of cheap, low grade vau-
deville shows, with a plentiful supply
of fakirs carried along to gull the pub.
lie. Its real object has been lost sight
of and very few cities ever want a
second street fair. The Elks are to
be commended for the stand taken.

Experiments are being made with a
freight car having fall-bearing jour
nails. The car runs so easily that a
single person can nov a loaded car.
If the experiments prove satisfactory
there will be a revolution in the
freight hauling business. Trains
could be made much longer, which
would increase the earnings OF the
railroads by millions of dollars.
