at their meeting which is to be held
shortly. The paper is already estab-

There are two express companies
that operate in Mississippi, the A
merican and the Southern. In justice
to the Southern it should be stated
that this Company has refused to ac-
cept G. y. ID. shipments OF whlskeys,
While the Americ IN is the one that
has been guilty of this often se against
the peace and morals of the State.
The Liquor dealers have recently
formed Committees to petition the
National Railroad Commission to
force the Southern Express Co., to
receive and deliver such shipments.
So far nothing has come of this move
ment. Its traversity upon the in
herent constitutional rights of com
-munity which has declared for and
by it's own enactment of laws prov;d-
ed against the whiskey traffic with
in its doors, to have foisted upon it
through the late Interpretation of the
Interstate Laws, this nefarious prac
-tice of sending the stuff right into
such towns and the actual sale and
purchase consummated within its
doors by the express agent, whether
willing or unwilling party to such
transaction, and Tom Fay, and
John Day and such other lovers of
the fiery cup as are dubbed together
to make up the purse which takes out
the Jug, and to afterwards parcel it
out among themselves.
As Greene County is within the
zone which the Southern Express Co
operates, Of the situation now stands
We do not have to grapple with this
problem, which has got so many
towns over the State very much a.
reused.
