The Illinois Central is making
fine progress in building its line
from a point on the Mobile and
Ohio road near Corinth to Biz
mingham, Ala, the new line to
pass through the southeastern
portion of Alcorn, and Tishomin-
20 counties, and the northeastern
portion of Itawamba county,
then into Alabama. The projec-
ted Helena, Tupelo and Decatur
road would tap this new line al
some point in the northern portion
of Itawamba county and if this
line is ever constructed which we
believe will be done, Tupelo would
have direct connection with an
other great artery of trade and
bring to us untold o%pportunit es.

The attorney general seems
to be 10th to give the legislature
his opinion on the legality of the
merger Of the Mobile and Ohio
with the Southern and as yet
has failed to assign a reason for
his failure to bring proceedings
to annual the consolidation. The
road is reported to be anxious
to have the question settled and
the business public is not averse
to having a final hearing from
the proper authorities. Let it
come.

The Most Impressive Scene Ever
Enacted in a Stage Drama

The scene of all scenes in the great
religious drama "Ben Hur' is the mir
acle on Mount Olivet, with which the
performance terminates. This final
scene in the drama shows the reunion
of "Ben Hur'', his mother and his
sister, after the passing of Christ to
Jerusalem. The mother and sister OF
Hur, who was stricken with leprosy,
have been cleansed by the Nazarene
and they are surrounded by a wondering
multitude who sing praise to Jesus Of
Nazareth.

10 Advertise LEGAL Sales

The press Of the state has tax
en- up the fight to have a measure
passed requiring all legal sales
of real property advertised three
weeks in newspaper giving notice
of date and place Of sale Of said
property. The press is usually
too busy looking after the polite
al end of their representatives
interests at home, giving space
to promulgate their views and
keeping out all unfavorable crit
icism Of their votes and opinions,
to ever get time to urge a strictly
business measure such as the
above is. And when few mus
ter up courage to advise and ask
for the passage Of such a bill,
they are charged with lobbying
for solely personal interests.
Now, if there had been such a
law in the past the skinfint who
slipped around buying things at
forced sales that had been adver-
tised by posting on the doors of
shops, postofices and horseposts
would be poorer in this worlds
goods and the unfortunates would
have received more for what they
were forced to sacrifice by stress
of circumstances. The advertis-
ing of anything is the only way
to bring in desirable customers
and that the columns of the news
papers is the place to do it there
can be no doubt.
In this county the attorneys
and commissioners, have without
exception of late had all land
sales advertised in the papers,
realizing that the parties at in
terest would be the beneficiaries.
These advertised sales have at
tracted buyers, not only from all
over the country, but from the
adjoining counties, and the man
who had his plans laid to get a
bargain for the lack of bidders,
has had to go down deep in his
pocket and pay much higher pri-
ces than he had calculated to
pay.
Every decree signed by a
chancellor, or sale on a judgement
from any court, should be duly
advertised in the local paper,
and we feel assured in making
the statement that the price thus
obtained will many times double
the printers fees. The widow
and orphan, the poor and the
unfortunate are the beneficiaries
under such a state. Printers
are not wholly selfish, but they
are modist to a fault in demand
ing things.
