Greene County herald. (Leakesville, Miss.) 1898-current, 1905-01-27

The exhibit of Pearl River county,
gotten together by the Poplarville Bus
mess League, while not so extensive as
some others, was very creditable in
deed and brought out in a forcible
manner many of the good points of
that locality. It was prepared in a
catchy manner and displayed to at
tract attention. For only few years
has this county been considered an ag-
ricultural or horticultural possibility,
but all such doubts are being fast dis
PEELED and it is fast coming to the
front as one of the best in the state.
The Business League at Poplarville is
hard at work to bring its advantages
before the public and great success is
attending their efforts. The display of
cane and cane syrup was by far the
best at the Carnival and the grand
prize was awarded on this feature.
An elaborate case was filed with nice
y labeled bottles of syrup that could
De excelled nowhere. The flavor of
This syrup was delicious and tempting.
1t clearly demonstrates the adaptibili-
~ OF the soil in that county to the
successful raising Of cane syrup, and
She canning provides for keeping it
through the hot summer months when
cane syrup ordinarily ferments and is
ruined. This exhibit proves that we
,an and will have cane syrup to eat
The year round. Stalks Of cane of
great height were shown, and the
statement made that as high as $50
gallons was to be made to the acre.
Another distinctive feature of this ex-
hibit was a number of cans of sweet
potatoes. Everybody knows of the
delicious pies and other table COM
forts that can be constructed from
The south s great tuber, the sweet po-
.ato. There has always been a blank
season in the year when it was impos-
ible to have these potatoes but it
Ieems that the Poplarville people have
overcome this and we can preserve
hem for use the year round. This
,pens up a great field for the farmer
n that section and there is every
.eason to believe that in a short time
he sweet potato crop of Mississippi
will be one of the principal money
producers. Canned tomatoes and
peaches were also shown in this ex-
iibit and were as fine as those from
my section Of the United States. Ad-
7ertising matter containing pertinent
Information concerning the land, eli
nate, schools, churches, society, wa
er and other matters of vital interest,
vas distributed. The venture was
made along sensible lines and should
prove profitable to the Poplarville
Business League and Pearl River coun-
y. They will no doubt make a much
better display next time, the last one
,eing gotten up in only a few days.

manner in which Lewis adopted

than dozen or a score or two
of people know anything
about it, and only very small
per cent. of these care baubee.
There is simply nothing to it,
not even a good joke.
Certainly Lewis refused good
thing when he refused the Com
stitution, for the Constitution is
a powerful good paper, and its
editor good citizen, although
he is making a mighty po'r cam
didate for governor at this time.
But Lewis refusal to accept the
paper is not near 80 mysterious
as is "A Travelling Salesman's"
information that it was "a sample
copy which had been sent him
through the postofice," which it
was not, for they tell us at the
postofice that it was the regular

notified them that it was refused
by Mr.. Lewis.
This may serve to bring "A
Travelling Salesman" out from
behind his cognomen and thus
give us an opportunity 10 apply

TWO SCANDALS,
Jerome Will Let Light Into Ship Trus,
and Equitable simultaneously.

NEW YORK, July 13.-Aided by the
revelations now being made in the
financial affairs of the Equitable Life
Assurance society and it's former off,
GERS, District Attorney Jerome will re-
new his investigation into the scandal
GUS floating of the United States Ship
building company, commonly known
as the shipbuilding trust, with a view
to inaugurating criminal proceedings.
The statement was made today on
authority that the next installment of
the report of Francis Hendricks. state
superintendent of insurance, dealing
with his Equitable investigation, will
assert that officials of the society have
dealt in stock margin transactions with
funds of the society. This statement
was emphatically denied by a repre-
sentative Of Mr.. Hyde. If it proves
true it is in direct violation of the in
surance laws
The shipbuilding matter has direct
connection with the Equitable through
the Mercantile Trust company, of
which the society owns a majority of
the stock. Numerous officers and
former directors of the Equitable were
involved in the shipyards fasco. Enor-
nous sums have been repaid in resti-
futon and many suits are still pending
against the promoters.

ASSAULTED THE "sPoTTER"
TRAINMEN ARE ACCUSED OF
BEATING A BRAKEMAN AT
LA GRANDE.
Alleged That He Was Responsible for
Discharge of Number of Con-
ductors and Brakemen.

A report comes from La Grande that
M. H. Mitchell was badly beaten up
last night at La Grande by a number
of O. r. & N. brakemen. Several days
ago a number of conductors and brake
men were called in by the general
superintendent and given their dis
charge for alleged acceptance of
money for carrying passengers and
failing to account for it to the COM
pany.
This made the trainmen very wratny
as they knew some one had been
"spotting' and they set about to catch
MIN. This they did at La Grande last
night, it is reported, and such a beat
ing as they gave the man is something
that he will remember for years to
come. His name was M. H. Mitchell
for a couple of weeks or more. After
Mitchell had been treated to a first
class licking he was informed that the
district was not a healthy summer re-
sort for such spoilers" and that ne
had better move on, which he did
without questioning the why's or
wherefores thereof.
It is understood that altogether
about 20 employees have been laid off
on account of this spoilers workings.
