About a year since the delta town
Of Hollandale was almost wiped from
the map by fire. A great transfor-
nation has taken place since and it
has been rebuilt in a much more sub
stantial manner. A person who has
not been there since would hardly
know it. The principal street is built
almost entirely of brick, most of the
buildings being two stories high, and
for material and design are far ahead
Of most buildings found in towns OF
that size. It boasts of one of the best
banks in the country, has system OF
wa,erworks and electric lights that
would do.credit to a much larger place
and many, other improvements of q

FIR the steenth number of times
the writer insists that trucking does
pay In Mississippi. Here is another
signed experience by one of the best
known truckers in the state and a gen.
tleman who has been in the business
continually for a long time. These
experiences ought to be convincing,
and will with people who are looking
Tor facts and figures. While the re-
suits here shown are for small patch
OF raddishes, Mr.. Dammeron has
equally good results with other crops
as well.
Mr.. H. E. Blakeslee:-
| herewith enclose statement of the
radish crop that l grew last year:
Six pounds of radish seed at 40
cents, $2.40; Breaking and preparing
half an acre Of ground, $2.75; Four
women hours planting seed, $160 /;
Six women s hours thinning plants,
S2.4O; Gathering, punching and pack
ing for market $50 crates of radishes,
$500; One hundred and eighty
crates at IL cents, $3.50. Total
cost of production, $42.45. One hun
dred and eighty crates brought on
platform at Madison, $166.65. Less
cost of production, $42.45. Net pro-
fit on one half acre in radishes, 1924

planted the land in whippoorwill

MET DEATH OVER
WAILUA FALLS
SON OF ROBERT FOUNTAIN OF
SHOCKING DEATH.

A shocking accident occurred on
Kauai Sunday morning resulting in the
death of the young son of Robert Foun-
tain of Nawiliwili. News of the oc-
currence was brought this morning by
the steamer Mikahala which arrived
from her regular run to Kauai ports.
Last Sunday young Robert Fountain
and his two sisters went to place
near the edge of Wailua Falls, near
Nawliwil to gather guavas. The boy
was more adventuresome than his sis
te.rs and is understood to have gone
quite near the edge of the falls which
are "a feet i'm height. The guavas would
be shaken from the trees and some OF
them would fan near the edge of the
cliff. The by jumped about from one
rock to another. to reach the fruit a
rock turned with him and he fell over
the fails. His body had not been re-
covered up to the time the Mikahala
left Nawiliwili yesterday afternoon.
Another account of the affair is that
the boy went in swimming and got too
near the edge of the falls aud tumbIed
over the edge.

THE INNOCENT BYsTANDER.

Des Moines Cap1tal-There Is al
ways something doing when members
of the eastern aristocracy start out for
a hunt. The fowls of the air and the
beasts of the field and forest at once
seem to know what is coming. Instead
of quaking with fear they proceed to
have the time Of their lives. The Adj
rondack deer knows that there Is not
one chance in ten million that he will
be shot. The jackrabbit bounds across
the meadow in the highest glee, and
the wild duck looks down in Hottest
disdain upon the elegantly caparisoned
Nimrod who struts below.
But while the various divisions Of
the animal kingdom may be perfectly
secure there is always more or less
shooting And something or somebody
invariably gets shot. Sometimes 1t is
the noble hound whose enthusiasm for
the chase is suddenly quenced because
of having received a charge Of shot In
mis- rear quarters from his masters
"trusty" gun. Sometimes 1t Is the
innocent bystander in the adjacent
field or someone who has accompanied
the sporty huntsmen for the purpose
Of helping bag the game which make

celebrating day. The late dispatches

consideration designated as that Of

merely Athe constitution"
Although the Courier honestly op-.
posed the amendment when it was up
for adoption or rejection by the people
of the state, that question is not now
an issue. A majority of the voters de-
clared in favor of the adoption of the
measure this year and in 1900 and it
is no more than just to them that it
should be placed upon the states con-
stitut1on. Wapello county voted
against the amendment, the majority
of her voters believing honestly that it
was not desirable. Ii it is declared
illegal again the decision will no doubt
meet with the approval of the greater
portion of the electors in this portion
of the state.

BUTLER QUITS THE GAME.

Missouri went republican too late to
have much effect upon the great athe-
1st, Robert G.. Ingersoll. who declared
many years ago that when the state
broke away from the democratic ranks
ne would become Christian, but it
has nevertheless had many good eff
fects. Not the least OF these, and one
which seems almost as strange as the
conversion of Ingersoll would have
been, is the decision of Ed Butler,
whose name has been regarded as
synonymous with all that is dishonest
in politics, to quit the game and be-
come an honest citizen instead of a
party boss of the worst class. Accord
ing to a story which was given prom
1nent position in papers throughout the
country on Sunday, Mr.. Butler has adj
mitted to reporter that he has been
stealing the elections from the republi-
cans in ST. Louis for thirty years, but
declared that he is going to quit for
good and all.
Ed. Butler quit the game Of politics.
To those who have followed his career
from the time he began to take hand
in politics, this statement would be
the same as saying, ED. Butler is
dead" Yet they have it from his own
lips that it is true He gave the re-
porter no reason for his decision ex-
cept that he has become conscience
stricken and has decided to let the
elections take care of themselves. He
has not ceased to be a democrat. de-
clares that he will die one But he
has simply tired of dishonest practices
for the purpose of winning elections
and he has determined to turn over
new leaf
Buffers machine, which included
many other democratic politicians in
Missouri, is blamed for hundreds of
crooked schemes and political plots.
Butler, who came to ST. Louis thirty
five years ago, poor, unknown black
smith, came from-no one knows
where-has developed into rich
man. He has developed as we'll into
a leader of men, for without that char
acteristic he could never have carried
out the plans by which he gained such
great success.
Butler says he knew before the cleo
ton. that the democratic machine
would be turned down this year, "be-
cause the boys were not out working"
he said "The average voter, not poll
tician, has no idea how valuable the
boys are on election day, and when
the democrats haven't got the boys
with them in ST. Louis they can't win.
That's all there is to it,"

THE VACANT CHAIR.

AT the meeting of the National Civic
Federation to be held in New York,
december Is. successor to the late
senator Marcus Hanna will be chosen
to assume the duties of president of
the federation. More than once since
the death Of this noble American oc-
Cured have the people who were so
wont to depend upon him in some of
his many different phases found that
MS absence causes a vacancy that is
hard to fill. This is the case with
the National Civic Federation. The
name of Hanna in that organization
gave it strength that was not obtained
from any of the other strong men in
Its membership. 1t will be hard to
ind man who can take his place and
command the confidence among all
classes of people that is necessary for
the success of the project.
Mr.. Hanna was broad man. a man
OF many attainments. He knew men
because he was broad. His experience
In business life took him among the
highest and the lowest classes. Among
the dock men he was known as
"Uncle Mark" the same respect and
admiration was felt for him by the
street car men who worked on the
systems he controlled. In politics his
word was regarded as an infallible
rule. his judgment was considered the
best because he knew men and condi-
lions as almost none of his associates
did. His loss is loss to the entire
nation.
