VESTS SPEECH ON DEATH.

Twenty years ago in eulogy over
the grave Of a departed frisnd at
Sedalia, Senator Vest delivered these
sentiments on death:
Every death is tragedy. We
stand by the open grave, and mutter a
few prayers and rush back to the
struggle and meanness of life. A
few loyal and loving hearts may throb
with agony, but time dulls the pain
obcsures the memory, until the cold
pulseless marble at last alone keeps
watch over the dead
Every death is tragedy because
it ends life's story, full of aspira
tions, love, hate, temptation aud suf-
fering. Poor judges are we of each
other And the truth will never be
known or Justice be done, until the
Great Chancellor shall judge the Sc
cret intent of each heart. Then the
Pharisees of this world, who thank
God they are not like yonder publican,
and who have been followed to their
last resting place with allNthe psgent-
~ Of woe will be thrust aside. spotted
like toads with pretense Of hyproorisy,
whilst many despised and condemned
by men will be found to have been
martyrs and heroes until their bruised
and broken hearts ceased to beat.

BROKE THE CONTRACT.

We regret very much to announce
that Prof. B. E. Jarrett who had
been employed as principal of the
school at this place has refused to ad-
here to his contract and therefore will
not teach the school. This leaves us
in rather an indefinite situation just
at present but we are hopeful that
even better man can be secured and
feel confident that such will be the
case. Mr.. Jarrett has not given a
satisfactory reason for breaking his
contract, and really we believe it for
t2nate, even at this late hour so close
to the time set for the beginning of
school, that we have been delivered
from man who is not good for his
contract. The Sentinel would not
knowingly do him an injustice or
criticise him unjustly, but the fact is,
he made a contract, fair, square
deal, and then broke it. He sought
the school and then ian away from
his owu proposition. The Sentinel
is Informed that negotiations are now
pending between the board and some
prominent educators and it is very
likely that we will be able to an
ncunce something definite next week.
One thing sure is that we expect to
have a school. The school Interest
here cannot be suppressed by any one
man Ripley Sentinel.

THE REMEDY FOR LYNCHINGs.

The sure and perfect remedy FOL
lynching is to remove the cause.
The statistics show that in many
states more men are put to death il.
legally by lynching than are exeout.
ed by law. Only one-third or less
are lynched tor rape. In country
where the law should be the legally
expressed will of the people, and nc
law is stronger than the public opin
ion that is behind it, it is easty to
see that lynchings are caused by the
delays, the technicalities, the dispar
ity in the number of challenges
which deprive the state of any
chance to convict in any we'll -defen-
ded capital oase-with few, if any,
exceptions. Despairing OF the
prompt and certain infliction of pun
ishment by reason of the indictments
caused by criminal lawyers, whose in
fiuence for long years has been i'm
pressed on legislation and decisions,
the people too often unwisely take
the administration of justice in their
own hands. Among the many ad.
dresses recommending a change of the
laws so as to make it possible for the
state to convict guilty man, though
ably defended, one of the strongest is
that of Judge McAlister to the State
Bar association of Colorado. Among
many citations, he quoted the follow
ing from Chief Justice CLARK, of this
state, in the Rhyme case.
''Lyncb law, evil as it is, is pro.
test of society against the utter in
sufiicienoy of the courts to
protect the public against murder.
1t is an evidence that society under
that first of laws, the right of self
preservation, is endeavoring to protect
itself when the costly machinery of
courts has failed of the object of it's
creation, so far as homicide is con-
cerned.
''The widespread of lynching is
caused from the apprehension in the
public mind that our expensive system
of government has failed to protect
society against crime. The only rem
edy is to import more common sense
and fidelity to duty into the admins.
tration of criminal law. If the pun
ishment of crime were made reason
ably prompt and certain and the
public had confidence it would he
so, there would never be another
case of lynching. "-Raieigh, N. @ !,

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE.

Headquarters Democratic Executive
Committee, Rankin County, Brandon.
Miss, Sept 10, 1904. At q meeting
of the executive committe, Of said
county, held In Brandon, on the above
date the following was ordered, to-
wit:
That for the purpose Of raising
funds to aid the national committee in
defraying the expenses Of electing the
democratic candidates for president,
and vice president, the members Of
this committee be and are hereby earn
estly requested to proceed at once to
organize in each precinct of this coun.
ty, democratic clubs, or if that be i'm

may bs best for the collection of the
very much needed funds, and may ap-
point suitable assistants. Said funds,

chairman of this committee to be by
him forwarded to the national commit
tee.
The south is vitality interested in
this election. Four more years of
Rooseveltism is menace to our con-
stitutional rights, to say nothing of
the jeopardy to our local government
and environments. 1t is our duty to
help all we can; even a small con-
tribution from each citizen will tend
greatly to relieve the situation. Our
northern brethren are making a grand
fight; can't we at least help supply
the necessary funds to aid them in
this fight, which really Is our own !?
All good democrats are urgently re-
quested to assist the committee in this
matter. the impo1 tance of which will
appeal to them on moments reflect
ion. Organize and let old Rankin

laggard when the necessity for action
is brought home to her. Speakers
will come to your assistance on request
By order of the committee.

Those who found it thought it
possessed considerable value, and
quietly secured samples, which

was returned today, and it shows
that the ore has $3.50 i'll gold and

Whereas, that in the death Of
our beloved comrade, we feel a deep
sense Of the loss III the companion

shall miss him from Our gatherings
the sunlight Of whose presence has
euabled Us TO bear more easily the
trials Of life's campaigns;
Resolved, that we shall keenly
feel his absence iii the trying hours
of pain and affliction, which his
wisdom and skill might have con-
tributed to lessen, but we know
that this order came from one who
doeth all things we'll and our loss
will be his eternal gain
Resolved, further that 50 long al
the little remnant Of life holds out,
we shall feel the influence for good
upon our hearts, that grew out oi
tle association with onr departed
commander.
We, the members Of the Joe
Shelby Camp Of United Confederate
Veterans, bow in humble subfnis-
sion to the great architect, and, il
loving sympathy We pray God .
blessing TO heal the wounds oi
every American mourner, who suf-
fers, the loss of this noble man
And when we shall have passed
from the snares and temptations ol
this earthly tabernacle, may we all
join hands with our departed com
rades who have gone before US
around the great white throne
where sorrow and pain can never
come.
Resolved, futher, that III these
sore Affections, with the tenderest
sympathy, we drop a parting tear
for the brreaved wife and loving
children Of our dear comrade, ano
pray that the All Seeing Eye may
keep watch over them, and may tbs
mantle Of hope and charity be evel
thrown about them.
