George Mcdowell, the Spar.

post card to young woman, was
convicted yesterday in the Unit.

described as "too indecent to be

AS you we'll know, we made
some business changes the first

lessness In the United States is
not confined to any one section;
iynching is not confined to any

no body OF American citizens
who have deserved SO we'll OF
the entire American people as
the public men, the pnblicists,

thousands OF high minded private
citizens who have done such
heroic work in the South in
arousing public opinion against
lawlessness i'll all its forms, anu

You are in honor bound TO Join

especially against all crime by

You must teach the people of

no matter whether it is hard to
keep or not. Ifyou save money,
secure homes, become taxpayers

have blotted out over so per cent

done In the past is an indication

education is what is most needed,
in order that this progress may

LOT OF AN EDITOR.

Editing newspaper is nice thing.
If we publish jokes, people say we are
rattle Drained. If we don't, we are
fossils. If we publish original matter,
they say we DON'T give them enough Sc
lections. If we give them selections,
they say we are too lazy to write. If we
don't go to church,we are heathens. If
we do, we are hypocrites. II we remain
at the office, we ought to be looking out
for news items. If we go out, then we
are not attending to business. If we
wear old clothes, they laugh at us. If
we wear good clothes, they say we are

it was the most wonderful pain reliev-
