An Evil Abated,
County Record

Editor County Record
For some time past certain mer
chants at Harpers have been re-
failing various beverages con-
tanning a greater or less per cent
OF alcohol disguised under the in
nocent names of cider, cherry
bounce. etc. The sale of these
stimulants and the effect pro-
duced upon the buyer have been
exceedingly annoying to the good
people of Harpers, so on last
Monday a numerousiy sigued pc
tition was presented to the town
council requesting that an ordi-
nance be passed putting a stop to
the sale OF cider and cherry
bounce. The council took favor
able action upon the petition,
forbidding the sale of the bevera-
ges complained Of after December
Is. This as it should be and our
town council is to be commended
for its action IN this matter.

ssful Entertainment in Behalf
of a Worthy Cause.

e teStlval gwen III me Coul
house on Thanksgiving evening
for the benefit Of the Episcopal
church was a very pleasant and
successful affair. Something over
$50 was taken in and the net
proceeds amounted to about
$G3. /, is Very gratifying I" nole

several denominations In town
and ir this instance as usual they
all worked together TO make the
entertainment success.
There was a good crowd IN at
tendance and the handsome sum
realized shows that they were very
liberal in spending their money.
The entertainment was maze
up of several features worthy OF
mention, all of which We're well
pa,ronized.
The guessing contest, in charge
Of Misses Bertha Reardon and
Maude z Logan, excited much
interest. A glass jar filled with
beans was displayed and the par
Elephants exercised their skill in
estimating the number it con-
tanned, the prize offered being a
beautiful cake contributed by the
Misses Hirsch. Mr. Eddie Lewis
guessed the lucky number and
won the prize. In this way the
cake was sold for $14
The country store, conducted
BY Mrs r J Kirk, Mrs j 2 Nelson
and Misses Beulah Nelson and Liz

Another drawing attraction was
the fish pond, where under the
direction of Mrs Amelia Scott.
the lucky fisherman baited his
hook with a dime and caught all
sorts of pretty souvenirs. The
proceeds OF the fish pond
amounted to $3.50
The o> ster room was well mana
ged by the ladies In charge and
$25 was realized from this source.
An excellent supper was served
at % cents. a, which price no
one could afford to 60 hungry
About $25 was turned in by the
committee in charge.
The ever popular cake walk
furnished great sport both to par
iicpants and spectators. In This
competition MIR II X Wallace and

and awarded the prize.
The result of the entertainment
WAS highly satisfactory 10 all con-
cerned, and those who took par,
are to be congratulated upon the
success that crowned their efforts,
in behalf OF a worthy cause.

AS Thick as Pleas,


We learn that il is quite likely that
Judge W. X. Stevens, OF CarrGslt0n,
will announce for governor at an eer-
~ date. Judge Stevens is ONE OF Che
ablest young statesman In Aississip-
| pi; he is extensively acquainted, uni
versaiiy popular, an aggressive and
eloquent stump speaker, and should
he decide to make the race, it's
dollars to doughtnuts he viii be
elected Governor. Greenwood En-
terprise,
That the Enterprise Is welded to
its idol, goes without saying; but
placing dollars to douglmuts" is
putting it rather strong Mr.. Ste
vens is not the only Richmond in the
field. There are others-gentlemen
whose native ability is just as great,
whose purity is as unquestionabie,
and whose attainments will the En-
terprise permit usP) as varied. So
we beg leave to inquire: upon what
meat doth this Our Caesar feed that
he hath grown SO great"
Mr.. Stevens is Il young man, which,
per Sc, is no crime, neither of itself a
Recommendation or necessary qualif-
cation for tho office Of chief executive
of the state of Mississippi. Upon
what does the Enterprise base its as
scrtion when it tells us that Judge
Stevens is one of the ablest young
statesmen in Mississippi? Unless
our memory fails rs, he has never
vet held an executive or legisla-
tive Office, but his service to tho state
has been solely in a judicial capacity,
so how has our contemporary gone
about discovering SO much sta.asr
manship in one as yet untricd. How
was this asoertained in one the du-
ties of whose Office should have kept
unspotted from partisan politics,
from spaech milking and the display
of his forensic ability? But we would
not be MISUNDERSTANDING are not
committing ourselves to policy OF
opposition to Judge Stevens, neither
have we the least prejudice against
him. lie was born and reared in this
neck of the woods and we enter
tain only the kindest feelings for him
personally. Years ago we knew him
and he gaze promise of becoming .
good lawyer then, and We suppose
the promise has been fulfilled; but il
never occurred to rs then to regard
him as future statesman.
Should ne, however, enter the race
for the gubernatofiai sweepstakes,
ana, after seeing him and hearing
him make an aggressive and elo-
quent speech. we find him all the
enterprise says, 1.-THE nohiest Roman
of them all, the chief among ten
thousand, and altogether to be de
sired, we shall then embrace him as
the supreme object OF our heart s
affection, and proclaim him Captain
of the Host, and the political Moses
to lead us out of the wilderness. But
until then we shall wait.
In the meanwhile we merely wish
to remind the Enterprise tha} there
~ hers- SIMPLY that, and noth'
ing more.
