American sewing machines are
being sold in the heart of Africa
at a lower figure than the poor
white seamstress in America can
hope to buy one for.-Ex.
Yes, and the revenue agent of
Mississippi should see to it that
these companies pay their just pro-
portion Of the taxes. And he Will
do it il the courts sustain him in
his effort. No article Of trade is
sold at a longer profit than sewing
machines that are sold by agents
on time. When a note is taken for
one of them taxes should be paid
on that note just the same as one
of our home people have to pay on
a note held for the purchase mo-
ney of land or anything else. The
nonresident CORPORATION selling to
our people at long prices shnuld
pay taxes.

Nuisance That Must Be Abated.

For some time there has been
considerable complaint that the
two railroads which pass through
the corporate limits disregard the
law which requires of them not to
keep the crossings of the streets
blocked longer than five minutes
at a time. This law has been vio-
lated and disregarded by the en-
ployees of both roads so long that
it has become a public nuisance.
The convenience of the public,
and in fact the safety of the public,
demands that something be done,
and done right away, to relieve the
public Of the nuisance. With the
increase of business along the lines
of road the number of trains pas
sing is greatly increased and at
times it is almost impossible for
pedestrians and vehicles to g t
across the tracks for hours. The
local business requires a vast
amount of switching and with a
local on each road each way there
is hardly a time in the day when a
train on one road Or the other is
not in the yard and switching to
and fro. While we know it is nee
essary for this work to be done,
we also know that the public have
some rights that should be regard
ed. In a number of cases some very
narrow escapas have been made on
account of the recklessness of the
employees running the trains. A
human life is too precious to be
ground out by the gross and will
full negligence of a lot of people
who have no regard for il. If the
rights of the public are not respec-
ted there is only one remedy and
that is to seek the aid Of the law
in the matter. A petition presen-
ted to the mayor and board of al
dermen will force the roads to put
fagmen at each crossing if tn
board are convinced of the necessi.
ty. AT this ii I'M we will
have to to resort to the flag
men as we cannot delay the matter
until the roads could be forced to
build bridges over their tracks
This will have to be ultimately
done. The officers OF he cit
should see to it that every m a L
running a train is punished wher
he stops a crossing longer tn a L

The Presidents Iafamy.

The infamy of the President in
the methods employed to secure
funds with which to purchase his
election to another term to t h g
presidency is one of the shames OF
the dav. Never before has such
rottenness been INDUCED in The
methods employed have been thor
oughly exposed exposed by news
paper sleuths who have been close
upon the heels of the infa m o u S
gang from the President down.
The New York World has been
one Of the most vigilant and per-
severing and has given the public
much that would disgust honest
people. That the President him
self is the head Of the dishonest
gang is established beyond y
reasonable doubt IN the following
from the World:
Here are the links of the logical
chain that connects the w h it
House directly with the treasures
Of the trusts:
l. President Roosevelt secures
judicial judgement against indorse-
ment of the Anti Trust law.
2. President Roosevelt secures
the passage of the Department OF
Commerce law, throwing open the
books Of the trusts to the scrutiny
Of the Secretary of Commerce.
3. President Roosevelt makes
his private secretary, Cortelyou,
Secretary of Commerce.
4. President Roosevelt makes
Cortelyou, loaded with trust Sc
crets, Chairman of the Republican
National Committee and sends him
to collect money from the corpol-
atoms he has been investigating.
The Tupelo journal., 1904-10-21

A man is poor when he has lost
the confidence of his friends, when
people VINO are nearest to him do
not believe in him ; when his char
acter is honeycombed by deceit,
punctured by dishonesty. He is
poor when he makes money at the
expense of his character, when
principle does not stand clear cut,
supreme in his idea. When this is
clouded, he is in danger of tn e
worst kind of poverty. To be in
the poorhouse is not necessarily to
be poor. If you have maintained
your integrity, if your character
stands four square to the world, IT
you have never bent the knee of
principle to %ayarice, you r not
poor, though You may be compel
ed to beg bread.-Orison SWEET

Business Is Good.

From all over the state come re-
ports that business is good and ev-
cry body has money like the day
before Christmas. Never before
since the war have farmers been
splendid financial condition as now.
The high prices of cotto" during
the last season and the prices now
prevailing make it possible for
more people to have bank accounts
than ever before. The increasing
aggregate Of deposits tell the tale
of good times with the farmers.
Prosperity with him means good
times with other people. Let him
prosper and grow rich and t b e
country is safe.

Gen. N. B. Forrest.

AS the years 60 by and as men
become acquainted with his career,
his fame as a soldier will grow
more aud more until all men will
approve the verdict given by the
greatest commander on the Fed
eral side, General William Tecum-
sch Sherman, who said: latter all,
I think Forrest was the most re-
markable man our Civil War pro-
duced on either side. To my mind
he was the most remarkable in ma
ny ways. In the first place he was
uneducated, while jackson a n d
Sheridan and other brilliant lead
ers we're soldiers by profession.
He had never read a military book
in his life, knew nothing about
tactics, conld not even drill a com
pany; but he had a genius for STRAIT
egy which was original and to me
lncomprehensible. There was no
theory or art of war by which l
could calculate with any degree OF
certainty what Forrest was up to-.
He seemed always to know what l
was doing or intended to do, while
I am free to confess l could never
tell or form any satisfactory idea
of what he was trying to accom-
plish.-The New York Sun.

The great battle that ragged the
past week between the Russians
and japanese near Mukden in Man
churia- brought death and destruc
ton to such an appalling de-
gree that the whole world stand
aghast at the spectacle. The tel.
egrams, though giving meager &C
counts of the number killed, yet,
it is said that a reliable calcula-
ton places the losses on both sides
in the neighborhood of 10000
men. OF this number at least 49,,
600 were Russians. The success of
the Japanese was appalling to
themselves. Viewing the great
disaster they had wrought we are
told that they r ready to sue for
peace rather than continue the
slaughter Of their fellowman.

Another railroad wreck which
occurred in Colorado with the u.s.
ual killing of a number of passen-
gers was reported Saturday last.
The frequency of these wrecks
forces the public to believe that
there is something radically wrong
with the management. Either in
competent men are employed or
competent men are worked to @
long. The last caus. is as unpar-
donable as the first. A road should
provide sufficient force to do the
work without working a ere W

BUGS RAISE LAND VALUES,
English Farmer Realizes an Average of $2,ooo Year from the Sale
 of Rare Insects.

All entomologists know that rare butterflies or moths reeur again and again in due season in one small farm of very few acres, and yet will not be found in any other spot in England for 100 miles round, though vast for tune were offered for 8 single speci- men, says London Tit-Bits To such a favored spot ardent entomologists will flock and will pay fee to be allowed to hunt for the insect itself or for its caterpillar or ehrysalis. Tn one case 8 Lincolnshire farmer has realized 2 small fortune upon a dismal swamp meadow surrounded by dikes and small willow trees, for in this field specimens of the gorgeous Gambler we'll beauty" butterfly have been found when they have been almost nonex- istent elsewhere.
 Only lately some acres of sedge were burnt in the district known as Wick ham Fen, and every entomologist in the land is mourning the fact, for in this locality insect specimens have been found that were thought to have died out in England. There is one small plantation at the edge of a con- siderable forest that, solely through the insects found there, brings in to the owner an average of $2,000 year. The actual value of the land is only a very few pounds.

women's Work in Korea.

As there are no labor-saving ma- chimes in Korea women's work is done by the crudest methods possible, from hauling rice with heavy wood or stone pestle t0 washing clothes by beating them in the streams and ironing them with sticks, says the St. James Gazette. Tn order to iron the clothes must be ripped apart and wrapped around a wooden roller while damp; they are then beaten by either one or two women. It is surprising to see the gloss on the white calico and the sheen upon the linen produced by the method of ironing. 1t surpasses the dressing one sees in this country on newly-bought linen. Since the people dress exclusively in white, the woman's day-and often much of the night, ton-.-is spent in washing. ironing and sewing.
