JACKSON RAIDS THE
FAMOUS TURNPIKE

Quiet, sedate Jackson has au last
arisen in her wrath and wreaked swift
vengeance on the one remaining vest
age of the heinous turnpike tiger.
On last Friday morning a party of
prominent citizens and officials Of that
city procured hacks and hied them
selves to the unholy spot. A spirit
of determination to destroy forever
the den was manifest and as soon az
the party arrived at the dive, some
splinters were raked together, oil
poured on and torch applied, and in
few moments the building was q
mass of smoking ruins.
The burned building has been oper
ated semi-openly as blind tiger and
gaming place for several years, and
has had as many or more owners.
A number of boys and young men have
been led into paths of viciousness and
dishonor through it's influences, and
it was in the immediate vicinity OF
the joint where Jesse Puckett was
killed. Some of the members Of the
destroying party were bent on going
a step further and destroying the
houseboats on the river but conserva-
tism prevailed, knowing that in that
case they had no legal right. The

CAUSE FOR ALARM.

We are told that 95 per cent at least
of those who buy pistols and other fire
arms here, and in fact in the state,
are negroes. At times, we understand,
that it is almost impossible for deal
ers to supply the demand and many
pistols are sent in by express to fill
the orders. Is it right to sell negroes
pistols? It is a question that carries
strong negative. There is more
shooting among the negroes nowadays
than at any time former. 1t has be-
come ''style' with them to. carry q
gun. Many of them carry good ones.
The sale Of pistols to the negroes
only make them more daring and de-
velops criminals. Is it right to sell
these weapons promiscuously to them !?
We think not. We cannot expect the
negro to grow moral when this strong
inducement is held out to them to be-
come criminals. The sale Of pistols

doubt, will continne-Senatobia Dem

and he views with much satisfaction
the very evident alarm that is being
manifested by the republican cam
paign managers, whom he regards as
thoroughly frightened over the splen-
did headway that is being made by
the Parker and Davis ticket.
The desperate straits of the repub-
lican managers, Senator McLaurin
points out, is illustrated by the fact
that they are now hiring every maga-
zine writer who will accept bribe to
write stuff for these publications
boosting the republican ticket. The
recent article by Will Allen White
giving Roosevelt credit for unearth-
ing the postal frauds, and the effusion
by Alfred Henry Lewis in the last is
sue of the Saturday Evening Post are
notable examples.

PARENTS INFLUENCE IN SUN.
DAY SCHOOL,

Following is a paper read before
the beat Sunday School convention at
Pisgah:
The subject of parental influence is
one of vital Importance, but yet it is
little understood. The home and the
Sunday school are 30 closely united
that the training child receives at
Sunday school is practically no benefit
unless the influence of it's earliest rec
elections and associations have been
with christian mother and father.
The home should be a more
blessed and sacred place than any
church or Sunday school, for it is
here that the child receives his first
impulse for gool or evil. Father and
mother must stand very near to feach
other to make the home what it
should be, hand in hand, sharing the
joys and sorrows together as they
move down the river of life. Their
example of sscongeniality will influence
the child to manifest kindness one to
the other. and thoughtful attention
and love to all. Natures law of
individuality may be perfectly ex-
pressed in the home life, as we'll as
