WHEN the old soldiers take a
hand, you had as we'll "stand from
UNDER" for something is going to
drop. Their devotion and loyalty
to each other is truly sublime.
Many manned and aged Confeder-
ates, who had not attended conven-
tions before in years, were here
Monday to assist Senator Bate, and
they did assist him. They occu-
pied front seats in the meeting,
seats of honor-seats to which they
were eminently entitled. They
have always been Sin 'front.'" in
war and in peace, and the BULLETIN
is in favor of keeping them in front
so long as they live, and when they
pass owe the river, we hope they
will occupy a front seat in a bright
er and better world.

ST. LOUIS. NO.

St. Louis is a double barreled
whizzer, out for the stuff regardless.
She gets it too. One might as we'll
try to carry water in a sieve as keep
money here. There are many peo-
pie and places that might as well
hang out signs, ''stop here aud be
robbed without PAIN" tho not
without ''paying." You country
boys should not become excited
and leave home for ST. Louis on ac-
count of the higher wages here.
Many things you get there without
money and WITHOUT price are here
rated commodities.
The tribe Of Barabbas is active
here. Although l am touchy and
w%atchfu!, some iend stole a valued
ring off my finger! OF curse you
will say they could not have done
you that way. Well, that is what
I'd have said a week ago. My
friends will be glad to know that 1
still have my ears, tho unless l
graft the loose ends down, | may
not have them long. If they were
gold, I'd be sur to lose them. They
do not cOvet my brass cheek.
Tie Fair-oh, how beautiful d!
How grand, how magnificent, how
sublime 1t is a poets dream, a
musicians ecstasy, the New Jerusa-
lem let down from heaven, with
hell six feet deep flowing through
t. When | was a boy, | thought
the Bolivar courthouse a tremen
dous structure. If it were placed
in some of the buildings at the Fair
II might succeed in finding it, if
he would search as diligently as the
woman for her lost piece of money.
Then he would shudder at the ugly
old thing.
Our Hardeman ministers always
picture hell as an awful looking
place. They + mistaken; it is a
symphony of color and sound. l
know, for L went through it last
night. Never got a hair singed
either. The St. Louis hell is as
gay as Menus and the stencil of it's
morals ascend forever.
Tomorrow, l aim to get as near
heaven as possible, or where it
ought to be; | shall visit a fine
church for the Easter service. l
guess they will be on the grab there
too. Respectfully,
w. L. MACKIE.

CORRESPONDENCE.
c~LovERPoRT, TENN.


The school here, under the super
vision of Prof. O.. Stephens and
Mrs. J. NJ. PIpkin, closed last Fri.
day night. Not before in fifteen
years has the memory of that dear
old Elysium been so thoroughly
awakened, nor the interest so fully
resurrected. 1t was an occasion of
enjoyment to all, but more especial
ly to those who once have stood in
the places of those youthful actors,
but are now playing their part in
the drama of "Real Life" upon the
stage of action. 1t was like throw
ing aside the stern realities, which
they now have to face, and retrac-
ing their footsteps for fifteen years
to be again in that crowded audito-
rum listening to similar sweet and
youthful voices and the melodious
music of Uncle Sim," the same
old fiddler who has served on all
such happy occasions in days gone
by, was indeed a treat never to be
forgotten. The order was remark
able for the immensely of the
crowd. Perhaps, some did not
think the exercises of the night a
success. but considering the short
time of two weeks practice, we
pronounce it a de ,ided C
The influence of those two deserv-
ing teachers will not cease with the
closing exercises of last Friday
night, but we hope the seeds sown
for good may spring up and bring
forth fruit abundantly to the glory
and honor of their names. Prof.
Stephens has been in our midst but
a short time, bat he has won a place
in the hearts of this people that
cannot be %supplanted. He won the
love of his pupils and taught them
by example as well as precept.
Hope we will be fortunate enough
to again procure his services in the
grand cause of education. If for
any reason he and his sweet com,
panion do not see fit to cast their
lot with us, we hope and feel sure
that success will crown their every
effort. MoDENA.

AN old Confederate soldier here
Monday, in conversation with a par
ty of gentlemen, pointing to the
monument in the court yard erected
to the memory of the Confederate
dead of Hardeman County, remark
ed: "Gentlemen, if you are going
to turn down such men as Senator
Bate, you had just as well throw a
chain around that monument and
drag it to the ground" They
didn't turn him down.

Monument to be Erected at Selmer
to the Memory Of Pioneers Of
McNairy County.

McNairy county is one of the
oldest counties formed in West
Tennessee, having been organized
in about the year 1924, and the town
Purdy, the former county site, was
laid off about a year later. Some
of the most distinguished citizens of
Tennessee have had their birth in
McNairy, and many of the leading
citizens Of Jackson were either born
there or are the descendants OF citi-
zens of that county. Other Promi-
nent citizens live in Washington,
Nashville, Corinth, Henderson,
Humboldt and other places or hold
official positions in the West and
East.
A movement recently took form
to erect a monument at Selmer, the
present county site, giving the date
of the organization of the county,
the old county site Purdy, also the
present county site, Selmer, the re-
moval of the county site from Purdy
to Selmer, and the names of the pio-
neer settlers of the county. The for
mel citizens of that county now liv-
ing elsewhere have entered heartily
into the plan with the citizens of the
county, and a handsome metal mon
ument has already been made, and is
now at the town of Selmer.
This monument will be placed in
position during April in a promi-
nent place in Court Square at Sell
mer, and in May it will be formally !
dedicated, a. which time there will
be a big reunion of all the former
citizens who have ever lived in the
county, their descendants and the
people who now reside there. 1t
will probably be the greatest gather
ing of McNairians ever held.
The monument will be erected on
a massive stone base, will stand
about ten feet high, and the in
scription, dates, names, etc., are
carved on the four sides or tablets.
Preparations are being made for a
great reunion, reduced rates will be
given by the railroads, and every
thing is on the qui vive for a good
time generally.-Jackson Dispatch.

"Purifying Politics

When it was reported that the re-
cent election frauds Of Denver were
committed mainly by women, the
opponents Of equal rights SAID this
proved that women ought not to
vote. When it turned out that the
frauds in question were committed
mainly by men, with only a very
small spnnkling Of women, the OPP
ponents shifted their ground and
now say that equal suffrage is a
failure because the women have not
prevented al men from cheating
and completely "purifed politics"
Politics might 0e purified COM

WESTERN SEA.
SON IS ENDED
Big Money Made by George
Bones Team Fight at
the Annual Meeting and
Joe Fox Was in it.

At the annual meeting of the West
ern league blows were struck by Man
ager Henley of Richmond and Man.
ager Fox of Indianapolis. The clash
between Henley and Fox came when
the protests by Marion against Rich
nlond were up for discussion. Indian
apolis, Anderson and Muncie voted
with Richmond, and Eiwood was the
only support to Marion's protest. They
failed to carry. Basis for the protest
was questioned and inasmuch as both
were directed against a club that had
won the championship by large mar
gin, the majority Of the magnates did
not believe it good policy to declare
against Richmond. In the argument
Stlnson OF Marion and Henley got into
a quarrel, and both passed the lie, when
Fox took Stinson's part and hurled
back the lie to Henley. The biggest
men in the league and the sma lest
quickly got together. Henley at first
shook Fox vigorously, but Fox retail
ated with good arm work and brought
blood on HenIeys face. BY this time
five other men were trying to separate
the lighting men. The quarrel kept up
and the meeting adjourned shortly af-
terward Efforts were made to have
apologies exchanged between Henley
and Fox, but they were only half
hearted and they separated feeling bit
ter toward each other.
