Education ii Fair RiYer.


The schools Of beat 3 held their
annual contest in defamation,
elocution and music at Fair River
High School on Saturday, April
18th.
DR., Graves, Of Pearlhaven,
made the opening address IN
which he very ably discussed the
development along educational
lines. Following DIR. Graves,
Prof, w. B. Hogg, Of Auburn,
made an address il which lie APP
pealed to the young men in such
manner as to convince them that
they must educate, and be chal-
lenged any ana all possible ex-
cuses that they might offer for
not getting an education.
The contest in the above named
subjects was held In the following
order:
Defamation Almon johnson,
representing Fair River school;
Collie Carlisle, representing White
Line school; Lackey Girault, rep
resenting Centreville school;
Russell ElIzey, representing Ell
~ Line school.

school; Jennie Bell Furr, repre-
senting Centreville school; Annie

tion, to Myrtice Rollins the rep
resentative of Fair River school;
the first place in music to Eta
Moore, the representative of Fair

Only five schools in beat 2 were

fact that beat 2 has some fine tall
ent in it.
In the afternoon a program con-
sisting of music and readings was
carried out by the pupils Of Fair
River school.
Miss Pearl Walden, Of Ellzey.
Line school; Miss Matte FUR, Of
Clear Branch school; Miss Addie

Shoot StraIeht.


We have SO often had occasion
to condemn the leactionary and
delnagogic utterances of Cover
nor Vardaman when he discusses
anything remotely touching the
race question that we have partic-
ular pleasure in commencing his
straightforward courage and COM
mon sense in dealing with The
question of law and order. Gov
ernor Vardaman has steadily used
his power to stop lynching and
maintain the supremacy of the
courts, but never has he said any
thing more worthy of the atten-
ton Of public officials who are
called upon to face the mob spirit
than this:
When one man or a dozen men
undertake to override the law and
interfere with an officer in the
performance of his duty, the
proper thing for him to do is to
shoot straight instead Of over
their heads. IL Mr.. Poag had
done that, the cowardly scoundrel
who took his life would have been
put in the grave instead Of Poag.
If it is known that the officer is
going to do his duty and shoot
when necessary, there is no dan
ger of mob trying to take his
prisoner from him. =
That is good doctrine every
where in dealing with mobs,
whether they are assembled to
wreck a jail or a railroad. Shoot
straight and to kill. 1t is harsh
medicine, but it cures the disease.
One administration of the dose is
always sufficient, while the failure
to administer the remedy in one
case almost surely invites the
spread of the trouble. Lynching
is danger to the community sim
ply because it has enjoyed immu-
nifty. Mobs hang and burn. We
do not believe a jail has been
broken open in ten years where
the custodian could not, with de-
termination and courage, have
preserved his prisoner, or at least
made such an example of himself
and the mob as to have aroused
his State effectually to put down
for the future. Posi-
bly, sheriff or two or mob lead
er or two might have been sacri-
feed, but a few stands for the law
in deadly earnest would put an
end to the easy going celebration
of lawlessness.
Most iailors and sheriffs who
have to defend prisoners, especial
ly negroes, are not really in earn
est to protect them. They flour
ish revolyers, beg the people to
let the law take its course, 60
through all the motions Of being
overpowered, and allow the pris-
oner to be taken with the least
damage possible. We hope that
Governor Vardaman will succeed
in Installing a new sense of re-
sponsibility into the Mississippi
sheriffs. The fact in the latest
case Of shooting in the air, in
stead Of saving trouble, made it,
gives practical emphasis to the
officials that in the way Of his adj
vice safely lies. New York Trib
une.

The Board of Trustees Of the

a meeting on Monday to present a
petition to the Mayor and Board
Of Aldermen requesting them to
make an appropriation to paint
the school building. The propo-
sition is a most reasonable one
and we hope the City Council will
consider it fayorabIy. Though
we have not hitherto said SO, The
Leader has considered it some-
what to the discredit Of the city
government that the faculty Of
the Graded Public School has felt
called upon to raise BY public en-
tertainments and popular sub
scTiption, money for this much
needed public work, but we be-
lieVe the attention Of the city

the subject seriously for them to
take favorable action. For the

Horse DEALINGS.

A great deal of money is constantly
being made in Tonopah through
horse dealings. Shrewd buyers and
traders find out the days when the
Indians come to town from the neigh
boring camps and then the buyers
make them a small offer for their
horses, which is usually accepted.
One man recently bought a horse
from an Indian for $50 and was soon
offered $75 for him. The Indians
seem to have little knowledge of the
value of horses and when they are
short of money, one can buy them very
cheaply.

ACQUITTED.
Jury in the Mckenna Case erinos in
Verdict Of Not Guilty.

Verdict Of Not Guilty.
The case of Mrs. McKenna ON tria,
at the y. s. Court on charge of SELL
ing whisky to Indians, was finished
yesterday and the case gwen to the
jury. After celebrating several hours
the jury brought in a verdict of not
guilty and they we're discharged By
Judge Hawley.
The case has attracted considerable
attention from the fact that the de-
PENDANT is woman and is practically
put out Of business by the action taken
against her. She conducted a. small
store in Moapa, southern Nevada, and
when arrested she was compelled TO
mortgage and finally sell her property
in order to defend herself against
the Federal authorities.
Attorney Poujade was appointed to
make the defense, and he certainly
handled the case admirably. Witnes.
ses were sent for which took several
days to bring to this city, and he had
the case in hand from the opening it
is stated the woman will be tried OF
two other counts. K
