AN ALcHoHoL REVELATION

When the Anti-Canteen League sue
ceeded in forcing its restricted and
narrow views upon congress and so up.
on the army the result was regarded
as a triumph for prohibition Like
many similar abuses Of temporary
| power il has proved precisely the re-
verse, Senator Gallagher and his
league have gone to great extremes,
and, fortunately for the cause of tenn
peranoe, have invited the reaction
from which sane legislation may now
be expected
How general this reaction has be-
come + evidenced by the fact that
movements for redress have appeared
in three distinct quarters,
First-It is apparent that fhe army

fact that these officers are themselves

untrue Army officers have every in.
ducement not TO run counter to the
expires sed policy of congress and they
have every reason 10 urge policy
which will increase their own control
and Influence over their men. II is
ne that in urging this policy
the commanders do not stand alone
They a.e supported by the army sur

ties for such Indulgence 10 the rank

unreasonable. and must necessarily re-
suit in resentment and correction.
Second-At the same time ii ap.

ternal Revenue in Washington has
decided thar patent medicines which
contain alcohol and which are sold as
beverages must pay the usual revenue

between these TWO movements. beyond
tho fact that they argue for a wide
spread interest and agitation upon a
subject which has been clOuded by
prejudice and hypocrisy. 1t is re-
markable thar legitimate liquor inter-
ests permitted themselves to be bur
denei with SO disproportionate a re-
sponsibilty for the baneful conse-
quencer Of the use and abuse of alco-
hol. But if these interests have man

A Negro Fiend.

New Albany, Miss, May 81
About an hour before sunset yes
treday afternoon, an unknown
negro met Miss Pearl Pannell
near the home of l. S. Jacob in
the vicinity of the quiet village of
Blue Springs and assaulted her.
Miss Pannellis layears old and
the daughter of W. j. Pannell, a
highly respected citizen of this
county. She was on her way
home from Blue Springs. While
walking along unsuspectingly,
she was seized by a black, heavy
set negro, and dragged into the
woods nearby and outraged. The
negro then fled. While it was
near the home of Mr.. Cobb, the
dense wood and hills hid the
criminal from view and the young
lady's screams were not heard
till the brute had escaped. The
entire country is aroused and "a
posse Of 200 men are searching
for the negro, who is said to be
dressed in black suit with white
shirt. Sheriff ]. E. Tate is on
the scene and is awaiting the

WHIT CASE GOING TO
JURY TOMORROW.
State Is Through and De-
fense WIN Finish up
This Afternoon.

Senatobia Miss, May 3.-The
prosecution finished it's case
against James Whit this morn
ing and the defense is having it's
inning. From present indica-
tions the case. will go to the jury
by tomorrow noon.
The three additional jurymen
were secured yesterday after
noon. Mrs. Belle Brown, Henry
Wilson and Charley Rochells
were the witnesses examined for
the state. They testified as eye
witnesses, and gave about the
same evidence as on the first
trial.
The defense put on two wit
nesses that assailed the testimo-
ny of Rochelle and Wilson.
These were O. L. Mize and Watt
Luckette is the man whose al
sense was made the plea for a
continuance of the case when it
was up for trial before.
Both Luckett and Mize test
fed to the effect that Rochelle
and Wilson seeing that trouble
was coming between Whit and
Thompson ran and were actually
running when the shooting occur
red
The evidence now to be sub
mitted will deal with the physi-
cal facts Of the shooting. Char
acter witnesses are also to be in
troduced in an effort to show, for
the defense, that Thomason was
a man of some violence.
The Tate county grand jury has
been discharged by Judge Boothe
He conplimented them very
highly, stating that in all his ex-
perience as Judge he had never
seen a grand jury so ably and
fearlessly live up to the require
ments made of it. The grand
jury returned in all twenty-one
indictments; seventeen of which
were for murder. 1t is thought
that the others include indict-
ments against road contra ctors
for alleged failure to work the
roads in accordance with the
specifications of the contract with
the county.

MOBILE & OHIO DEPOT BURNED.
Business Portion Of Town Has Narrow Escape From De-
struction by Flames. Loss Estimated to be in the
Neiehborhood Of $4,000

The fire alarm was sounded
about 9. As o'clock Monday even
ing and within a short time a
large crowd had assembled in the
streets of the business portion of
town to find that the Mobile and
Ohio railroad freight depot was
on.fire. Those who arrived first
attempted to enter the office,
but the smoke was sitting and
it was impossible to stay inside.
A number of freight cars were
on the track nearby, but they
were rolled out Of the reach
of the flames that spread
rapidly. Every effort was made
to remove the freight in the build
ing, but the quickly spreading
flames drove every body out.
Attention was then turned to
the building in the immediate
danger of being burned. A
light wind blew from the east
and saved the Johnson Hotel
from destruction. The wind
turned the flames in the direction
of the Monaghan Hotel and only
by the brave effort of those who
had charge Of the fire hose was
