lust a Difference.

One farmer will raise potatoes
that will yield 100 bushels per acre,
while his neighbor has new variety
that yields $50 bushels per acre.
One stockman raises cattle that sell
at $40 per head, another keeps a
herd that averages $50 per head at
the same age. One husbandman
plants poor seed and raises forty
bushels of corn per acre, another
plants select seed which yields sixty
bushels per acre. 1t is not because
one farmers land is better than his
peighbor's that he has double the
income, but because he is vigilant to
discover the best plants and stock
to raise. The enterprising farmer is
prudent, always trying to improve
his income, while his neighbor Is
satisfied to drift along in the anti
ouated rut of half century ago.
The more enterprise displayed in
the management of the farm the
more contented and prosperous will
be the owner. Enterprise means sue
cess in agriculture as well as In COM
mercial industries. Jour

Big SCRAP IN JAIL
Two Prisoners Mix Things in
Lively Way

Two prisoners in the county Jail
Thursday came together and fought
like wild animals with teeth and
nails until parted by Turnkey d. F.
Camp. They were John Cummins,
held for highway robbery and Louis
Webber, held on a charge of chicken
stealing. Webber has Just been
serving ten days in dark cell on
bread and water for an attempted
jail break. being caught trying to
saw his way out. During his soli-
tary confinement he gave it out that
it was Cummins who was trying to
saw his way out. In some way this
statement came back to Cummins,
and the moment Webber was turned
in with the other prisoners Cummins
jumped onto him, and fierce
struggle ensued.
While Cummins is the heavier
man of the two Webber succeeded in
downing him, but In spite OF this
the under man fought so hard that
Webber was getting considerably the
worst of it when Turnkey Camp
came upon the scene, and after lock-
ing up all the other men there in
individual cells, separated the two
fighting men.
Webber, is so far the only man In
that Cummins has not been able to
whip into submission, all the other
prisoners being absolutely under his
thumb. With all Of this he is
otherwise considered a model pris-
oner. He is awaiting second trial
on charge Of helping hold up sew
eral persons in the vicinity Of La
Sale.

Beautiful Figures.

A few days ago the CONNER
ciai called attention to the grow
ing business Of the Columbus
Marble Works Co., and mentioned
that they had the contracts for
erecting Confederate monuments
at Okolona and Tupelo,
On Saturday Mr.. Jno, A. Stin-
son, the'proprietor of this reliable
institution, called a representa-
tive of the Commercial in to look
at the figure for the monument
at the former place. That it is a
superb piece Of sculpturing does
not take an expert to decide, and
when it is known that it is the
work of the company's sculptor
in Cavara, Italy, who has turned
out some Of the hanhsomest fig
ures ever seen in this country, it
is not to be wondered. The figure
represents a Confederate scout,
holding his left hand shading his
eyes as if watching some one or
some thing in the distance while in
the hands his trusty gun which
he is in the act Of raising. This
monument was designed by Mr..
Stinson himself and he has also
prepared a similar design which
has been accepted by the veter-
ans of Tupelo, but which will be.
on a more extensive scale, the
former weighing $1,000 pounds
and costing $500, while the
latter will weigh 60, 900 pounds
and cost $4,000.
1t is gratifying to our people to
know that these monuments eX-
cept the figures are manufacture
ed from southern maple from
the Kennesaw Mountains near
Atlanta and that the work is done
by Columbus people. Low prices
and honest dealings is the motto
of the Columbus Marble Works,
Columbus Commercial.

Ia this issue we reproduce the
anpeal of Governor Vardaman to
the officers of the law to see to
its enforcement. Crime seems to
be on the increase and it is GER
tainly the dutyof those entrusted
with the enforcement OF the law
to see to it that its infractors are
brought to justice. AS the Gov
ernor truly says it is the idle who
become vicious and are the
perpetrators Of the dastardly
crimes that shock US in their
brutality and fiendishness. The
demand for laborers was never
SO great and the yagrant should
be made to either work for him
self. or land on the county farm
OF some public works. Let the
law be enforced.

The Cheapness Of Human Life.

1t is a fact to be greatly de-
plored that the taking of human
life makes but little impression
upon thepublic generally. Aside
from the families who are bereav-
ed but little interest is nantes
ted when the killing of a human
occurs. A short notice in the
papers announcing the fact, an
Indictment of the offender, the
trial by a jury with a verdict
Of acquittal in most instances,
and the matter is forgotten. The
practice of permitting boys and
young men to handle fire arms
is widely responsible for the fire.
quency Of homicides. All over
the country from the time the
small boyis considered old enough
to amuse himself with a target
gun the youth Of the country are
permitted almost without eXcep-
ton to handle fire arms. With
this practice grows very naturally
a desire to use the weapon and
frequently a life is sacrificed in
the heat of passion from the
simple fact that men go armed.
Within our own county in the
short space of two years fourteen
homicides have taken place.
This seems a large number in 4
county in which the people are
considered civil and law abiding.
This number does not include the
accidental cases, Of which several
could be reported. Out of the
number tried on indictment there
has been but one conviction, and
one plea Of guilty to man slaugh-
ter. Such a state of affairs seems
to exist all over the country.
This should be greatly deplored
and steps taken to abate the evil.
The practice Of the use of fire
arms begins at home in the in
diligence Of children by their
parents and here is where the
evil can be and should be corrected

LAND AND IMMIGRATION

ton Agents of the Frisco Road
with headquarters at Cowgirl, Mo,
were in Tupelo recently and for
tunately fell into the hands of
Capt. John Triplett. The Cap
tain, always alert to the interest
of Tupelo and Lee County,
showed these gentlemen around
and judging from letter to him
after their return home they were
impressed with our section. In
a letter to Capt. Triplett they
write: Eve arrived home yester-
day and can say that we were
better pleased with the country
in the vicinity of Tupelo than
any other stop on our trip. We
think we will be in q position in
the near future to handle some
of the cheap lands in your state
and wish to keepin close commu-
nication with you in order that
you may keep us fully advised
as to the condition of the country.
We do not hesitate in predicting
a great future to the big land
owners of your vicinity and hope
that we can devise some plan (as
per your suggestion at the depot
to form a company and buy a
large amount of this land"
These gentlemen have investl-
gated the lands along the line OF
road and their views as to the
value of our land are to be ap-
preciated. It is true chat no
better class ofland for diversified
farming and productiveness can
be found anywhere. And the
prices now ruling are extremely
low for such land.

The death of Senator Bate has
precipitated a very lively fight
for his seat in the United States
senate from Tennessee. Benton
Mcmillan, whom the old senator
recently defeated has not relin-
pushed his ambition and it has
been known for years that Bob
Taylor was not averse to being
senator. Gov. Frazier has enter
ed the race and seems to have
the call on his opponents on ac-
count Of his influence with the
legislature now in session. To
an out slider the only chance it
seems to defeat him is a combi-
nation of the friends of Mcmillan
and Taylor to prevent an election
while the legislature is in session.
Should this fail a vacancy would
exist until the next session and
n the meantime an appeal
could be made to the people, with
The chances in favor of the silver
5ounged Taylor.
