facts. The counsel is wholesome,
but the times are out of Joint.
Gossip and slander have grown apace
since the creeds of the old south
were swept away by war, and were
choked by the gross materialism of
the age. Virtue on wagglng tongues
is held lightly and character is of
small esteem. Good names are
banded in idle gossip and fair repute
in man or woman is injured in the
careless whisper Of the street. Ru-
NOR robs like highwayman and
slander stabs like bandit with
never code. save the doubtful pro-
cess of law, to make them afraid.
The age of personal responsibility
was the age of courtesy. 1t had its
and it can be justified in
the law Of God or man.
But this much at least is true:
That in time of its best expression it
must be set down as one at least of
the essential glories Of the old south
that no man spoke lightly Of the
honor of woman or the good name of
his fellow man.

JUDGE STEVENS RECORD.
A Mississippi Judge With Backbone
Wanted in Kentucky in Case
of Accident.

The following appears in the edi'
torial column of the Memphis Com
mercial appeal and seems to have been
taken from private letter written
by citizen of Kentucky:
To the state of Mississippi, greet
ing: We are doing very we'll and we
have confidence in Judge Redwine in
the Breathitt county cases. He is a
fearless Judge, who is willing to die
in the line of duty. He has the
militia and moral sentiment Of the
state behind him and while the
wicked ones hate him they fear him,
also.
We are doing very we'll so far and
while trials under the forms of law
are slow we feel confident that the
guilty will be ultimately punished.
But in case of an accident, in case some
sharp shooter should pick Judge Red
wine off or in case some Of the desper-
ate assassins should slip up behind
him and stab him in the back we
want you to hold yourself in readiness
to lend us your Judge Stephens to
finish the work. We will feel safer
with Judge who has been tried and
who has proved himself.

on the Retirement of Hon.
7. M. Fuller.

Resolved-That this board keenly
feels the loss of the services of T. M.
Fuller, one of its members, who has
resigned ON account of the fact that
he has not the time to devote to the
public service. His wise counsels,
his conscientious devotion to duty,
his careful and intelligent attention
to the problems constantly arising in
a growing municipality, all combined
to render him valuable public Off
cial. In recognition of his merits
and value in the Office which he has
relinguished this resolution is di-
rected to be spread on the minutes
and a copy thereof transmitted to
him. Given pnder my hand this

THE BREATH OF ISLANDER.
(Atlanta News.


: The Carson case in Macon is re-
markable not only in its nature, but
in it's swift conclusion, AID IN the
moral that it points.
A woman's chastity is refiec ted
upon by male teacher of rival
school. They meet for conference
over a suit for slander in lawyers
office, lock the door between them
and the lawyer, and, when the door
is opened. the man is dead.
with four pistol shots In his body
and the woman promptly avows her
self his slayer because, as she al
leges, he refused to retract his re-
ports and offered her further in
suit in the refusal.
The jury acquitted the woman
promptly, and the spectators ap-
plauded the verdict.
1t is made clear again by this
swift verdict that woman in de-
fense of her honor-or her reputation
will never be punished for violence
in the south.
There remains another lesson
which the Macon Telegraph points
most aptly as the essential moral Of
the case. The telegraph says:
DO not speak evil of female.
''If she is Innocent you do her ire
parable wrong. (And that was the
houghtin the minds of the Carson
Jury which no amount of eloquence
or persuasion, or cold logic, coulC
rub out.) You condemn her to {
living death.
'tIf she is guilty her sin will fine
her out without any wInks. or hints
or shrugs of the shoulders.
1T is reported TO have been sait
during the trial of this case that j
every man who spoke evil of
woman was shot down few me-
would escape. We hope that this
not true-we do not believe that it
true-but If it is true, perhaps it
time some of the women were start
Ing out with guns to make afral
those who slandered them.
I'VE repeat that the moral in tn
case is: DO no speak evil of females.
Words like these would seem |
make wholesome drift of sent
ment back to the old south.
But the words are marred by I'll

evening was spent as pleasantly as
could have been possible, and the
Kings Daughters realized neat sum.

SnAoial to The journal.

Hpeoial to The journal.
Havre, Mont, April 22..-Oil has been
discovered within twenty-five miles of
Havre under conditions which point very
strongly to tho existence Of large GUAM
titles Of an excellent quality, similar to
that found in the Swift Current and kint-
Ia Lake oil fields in the western part Of
the state.
Jack c.. Griffin, the pioneer Of the Bear
Paws, found several weeks ago several oil
seepages on his land in the mountains.
The first discovery was made In an irrl-
cation ditch built in a gumbo fat. Ihe
water in the channel was covered with q
thick scum Of oil after the ditch had filled
up. This oil was SKINNED off by Mr..
Griffin and proved to be OF an excellent
quality, known as paraf1ne base OIL, from
which many by-products are made.
Mr.. Griffin found not far from where the
oil was secured, large body of sha1e, or
oil-producing rock. The rock burns read
lily and the fumes have strong parahne
odor.
During the summer he intends to secure
the services OF an expert to determine the
extent and quality Of the oil found on his
land The presence Of the shale rock
gives color to the belief that oil In large
quantities may exist In the Bear Paw
mountains Wherever this rock appears,
oil has Invariably been found.
