OUR FATHERS. n :.

Brother Wilson Of the Pink Paper
says that his father who is eighty.fve,
voted democratic at the last election
and also mas voted the same way ever
since he became OF age. This. somewhat
in retort to our statement that Father
Wardwell had voted the straight repud-
lican ticket. He adds. ''what about il
Bro. Wardwell7" Nothing about it Bro.
Wilson, as far as the old gentlemen are
concerned they have exercised their
rights as citizens of this country each in
their own way. undoubtedly with the
best OF motives and according as their
consciences have dictated. In the lighE
of history. however, it would look as if
Father Wardwell had voted right more
often than has Father Wilson. At least
we would prefer to remember, if We had
been voter at the time. that we had
voted for Fremont and Lincoln and what
rtheyistood for, rather than for Buchanan
and Breckenridge and what they stood
for. Though by this we mean. no dis
b. rs
paragement to Father Wilson, for
thousands OF true patriots at that time
thought that the success of the repubii-
can party meant the disruption of the
Union, and voted pro-slavery. not be.
cause they liked the institution but be-
cause there seemed no other way to pre-
serve the country, We hope that Father
Wilson may be spared to vote for sew
eral presidential nominees yet, even
though he continues to vote the demo-
cratic ticket.
Bro. Wilson and this writer have reas-
on to be proud of our respective faith.
ers-though possibly the old gentlemen
may not have SO much reason to be as
proud of the two boys" I
Thi may seem little Of the personal
to our readers but is perhaps excusable
as the case is somewhat unique for two
neighbor editors to each have an old
father voting opposite tickets since 1910.

A GENTLE REMINDER

We have recently sent state
ments to a number of subscri-
bers who are in arrears for
subscription. A great many
OF them have responded to our
request for what is justly due
us, but there are some who
seem inclined to give no atten-
ton to Our bills. All these lat
ter accounts which are unpaid
by a certain date will be placed
with collection agency. Par
ties indebted to us who have
received statements can save
themselves annoyance by send
ing in what they owe.
Times-promoter. (Hernando, DeSoto County, Miss.) 1898-1970, 1904-01-29

the new board to the defects in
the specifications and contracts
made by the old board.
The editor makes the same
statement as the rest OF the old
board, except the old president,
and it is that the roads are in fine
shape aud better than they ever
were at this season of the year.
But that is not the question. Was
the specifications and contracts
carried out by the contractors {?
can give the editor a good
reason why the roads are in q
good condition. The weather con-
dition is the cause and not the
an cunt of work that contractors
have put on them. | was on one
OF the frst-cIass roads recently,
and it was a rainy day, land the
water was running all over the
bed of the road and looked more
like a creek than a $40, 90 per mile
road. Have the people got value
received for the money paid the
contractors? | say they have not
on a single road in the county.
AS to asphalt turnpikes, that is
not in the specifications and calls
for no reply. AS to greatly i'm
proved roads in this county | have
pot beon able to see any improve
ments over the old roads. No one
the contractors to per-
form a miracle, for the day of
miracles has passed. But the new
board ought to see that contract
or's work the roads more than
one time next year. And the dear
people ought to see that the board
pays not a dollar if the contract is
not carried out.

OLD HUGHEY.
A Reply to an Editorial.

The reason that / kick is that
no one in the county seems to
have the backbone to make kick
and | expect to kick, and to kick
with both feet as long as the board
accepts and pays out money on
such work as has been done by
the contractors of DeSoto coun-
ty. Why do | say that it is my
right as citizen and tax payer,
and ought to be the business of
every citizen and tax payer of the
county.
The board has spent for the
year 1908 $4,000, and the roads
in the county are in no better
shape than under the old law.
did not say that the roads in
the county were not passable, but
that contractors had not worked
a single mile to specifications, and
still say that the board was too
linent with the contractors. The
roads have been worked but one
time, and by what law could the
Eiu aF ~ Il
board pay full price for such
Times-promoter. (Hernando, DeSoto County, Miss.) 1898-1970, 1904-01-29

work? In regard 10 the reports
of the members of the board-all
the members did not make a re-
port.
The member from the first dis
trict made no report, and the
president of the old board said in
his report that not a single road
in his district had been worked
to the specification, and the other
members stated in their report
that the roads were in good con-
dition for this time of year, and
not word said about specifica-
tions or contracts being complied
with. In fact, it seemed to be a
white-wash of the whole business
by the other members reports.
In regard to statements made
by citizens of the county about
the conditions of roads, I think
that if the editor would listen a
little he would hear a long and
steady kick with both head and
feet about the roads, and if be
would take ride over the roads
and see the condition he would be
q chronic kicker himself. In re.
ply to the statement about re.
ductions of accounts made by the
board, out Of a total Of 5000 paid
for the last six months of 1908 to
the contractors. only $376,75'was
reduced by the board for notcom-
plying with contract.
As to my object for publish
ing the article on the roads, as
the contractors have worked
them, and the way the board paid
out the peoples money, was only
to call the tax payers and the
non resident land owners to the
way that the law was being exc
cuted and not for any personal
spite at the old board, but to call

GENERAL APATHY IN COMMAND

The shrek of the speIIbinder is now
h card in the land, but no wave of
exciment is created. The placid state
of the public mind seems 10 indicate
that the people of the country are not
frightened this year as they were in
the last two presidential campaigns,
but this does not necessarily mean
that they are not taking any IN crest
in the November election, or that they
are Indifferent to the result of 1T. We
are inclined to believe tina. the current
OF popular thought Is running deep
IL spite of the placid appearance of
things, and that there will be more
Independent voting his year than in
any previous election for President,
The people are not excited, nor are
they shouting themselves hoarse over
the speeches CT the spell binder sent
@ by the campaign cOrQmit,ees, but
q the contrary, they are pursuing
Elietly their own way aud doing their
Own thinking undisturbed by any clam
or of opposing leaders This means,
we tn nix, that the election is likely
to be one of surprises, especially
to the campaign managers of the TWO
parties.
