OUR ROADS.

Our board of supervisors will fix
the tax levy very soon, and 1t would
be well for that body to remember
the bad condition of our roads when
doing so. They are going from
bad to worse, and nothing will stop
this deterioration but a special tax
levy and an improved system. A
one-mill tax would not be felt, yet
that small tax would give the coun-
ty several thousands of dollars to
spend upon the roads each year.
To show what other counties are
doing In the way of improving their
thoroughfares, we reproduce the
following from the proceedings of
the board of supervisors of Copiah
county:
"The board of supervisors of this
county, at special meeting, passed
an order to pave with gravel the
Natchez and Port Gibson roads in
the Bayou Pierre swamp, leading to
this place. The paving of these
roads will enable farmers to haul
heavier loads and reach this market
during the winter months. Here
tofore it has been impossible to
travel over these roads at that sea-
son."

Big Day rIonday.

There will probably be a large
number of planters, farmers, truck
growers and stock-raisers in Port
Gibson next Monday on account oi
the organization of a farmers inst
itute and the organization of a
canning factory. The board of su-
pervisors will also meet on that day
and begin the equalization of as
sessments. A person coming in fol
any one of these purposes can easily
attend them all.

FASHIONABLE GAMBLING.

In acceding to the demand of the
citizens league to close up all gam
bling dens, Mayor Williams of
Memphis also signifed his intention
of bringing the social clubs, whether
composed Of men or women, to a
strict account. He stated that II
had been the observation of the
mayor and police force that all
of the defalcations and similar
crimes had their conception, not
In the low dives, but in the fash
ionable" clubs and. homes where
prizes were played for.
Here Is food for reflection. The
so-called fashionable" society,
even In our small towns, counte-
nances and INDUCES in "progres-
sive" games-games where prizes
are given to the most successful
players. This. according to the
mayor of one of our large cities, is
the most dangerous and degrading
forms of gambling.
In Mississippi, these social gam
bling tables are very popular, not
withstandine the state laws plainly
ly forbid all games of chance. Our
grand juries are dereIict in their
duty In not indicting such gamblers.
