must admit to a sneaking fondness
for the Australian papers. l have never
been in Australia and devoutly hope
that I never will be there but the Aus
tralian papers are great. The paru-
cular portion I like is the manner IN
which the divorce suits are reported
The last mail brought columns of the
Daley versus Daley case which must
have been important, if space signiH
Importance.
His Honor, Justice Walker, in adj
dressing the jury commented on the
fact that a witness, a cousin of the
petitioner and given evidence that the
correspondent, who happened to be
brother of the petitioner, had remark
ed to him What is so ripping about
Baby is that her breath is so sweet in
the morning"
Baby" it must be explained, was the
family nickname for the lady in the
case.
The learned judge held that the re-
mark was no proof of anything in the
way of improperly and l think he was
right l feel sure that my endorse
ment will please him.
My own impression is that Baby was
in the habit of eating a Sen-Sen tablet
in the morning and then blowing
through the key-hole Of her room so
that the Core could smell it,
8 s = :
I heard of something the other day
which shows that human nature has
not all gone wrong. A man was about
to be sent over to the settlement at Ka'
laupapa, and of course everybody in
Hawaii knows what that means. The
woman who had divorced him some
years before heard of 1t, and went to
him and offered him her bank account,
an account that she had created her
self out Of the savings from her earn
ings since the divorce-to supply him
with comforts and luxuries there that
he would not otherwise be able to get
He wouldn't accept her offer in the
recklessly generous way she made It,
But she did get for him a number OF
things,-a rocking chair for one-that
will add greatly TO his comfort over
there. shouldn't wonder II in her
account on the other side, where ac-
counts are kept on a different basis
from what they are here, that there
will be written some such entry as this
"She hath done what she could?"

Petition for Pardon
Tupelo. Niss., Oct. 18Th, 1906

Tupelo. Niss., Oct. 10Th, 1906
Hon. James K. Vardaman,
Governor OF Mississippi,
jackson, Miss,
Dear Sir: The Petition Of Ed Edwards,
Colored, for pardon woul aaow unto
your Excenacy as folloWs:-
He was convicted of grand ,aieeey
at the February tenn, 1906, of the Cir
cult Court oil Lee comfy stealing cot
ton, and has been IN the penitentaiy
since that time, serving two years
sentence. A few days ago his wife
died, leaving his little children without
anybody to care for them. He bad
never been charged nor convicted OF
any offense before. The circumstances
attending this offense, showed great
temptation for him TO commit it. He
has always been industrious and con-
sidered by both white and black, IS
honest and upright; and especially hes
he had the good will of the white peo-
plel whom he has always treated with
the greatest respect and obedience.
We believe the punishment already
inflicted, amply sufficient to deter him
from further offenses, we respectfully
ask his pardon,
Yours truly,
ED EDWARDS

Who Is a Brother?
He who understands youl

He who understands your 81.
lence. .
He who will be a balance in
the season of life.
He who considers your needs
before your deservings.
He who to himself is true, and
therefore must be so to you.
He who, when he reaches the
top of the ladder, does not for
get you if you are at the bottom.
He is the same today when
prosperity smiles upon you, and
tomorrow when adversely and
sorrow come.
He who cheerfully comes in
when all the world goes out, who
keeps with you when the laugh
ing world is away.
He who guards your interests,
as his own, neither flatters nor
deceives, gives just praise to
your good deeds, and equally
condemns your bad acts.
He who is the same to you in
the society of the wealthy and
proud as in the solitude Of pow
erty, whose cheerful smile sheds
sunshine in every company.
He who rejoices at your good
fortune, condemns your faults,
sympathizes with your sorrows,
IS at hand to help in misfortune
and a safe fortress in trouble. =

That the Japanese are making

That the japanese are making
the necessary preparations to
grab the Philippines at the first
opportunity is now apparent and
this country can accept the prop
osition as an established fact.
Officers of the Japanese army
have already made maps for mil
itary use and are perfectly fam
liar with the topography of the
country. Many japanese are
pouring into the island and in a
conflict with this country would
be in a position to greatly aid
Japan. The United States would
find q profitable business to fix
= nrice on the island and sell it
to the highest bidder before we
are forced into a conflict that
will cost many millions OF doll
ars and many lives. The Phil
lippines was always a bad bar
gain for this country and it
would not pay US to fight to keep
it. Sell them to Japan or China
and make the conditions such
that this country shall enjoy a
great liberty of trade with the
far east.

The announcement that Col.
e. L. Russell would assume man.
agement of the Greenville branch
of the Southern Railroad came
from Washington last week
where the headquarters of the
Southern are situated. The
Greenville branch is all that part
of the Southern road lying west
of Birmingham, Ala, and Includes
several hundred miles of road, a
majority of which is in Mississippi
This end of the road has received
but little attention from the
management and the equipment
and general condition has been
such as to cause the public gen.
orally to criticise and complain
of the management. The selec-
ton of Col. I. L. Russell as vice.
president and general manager
of the line is one of the wisest
and most popular strokes of pol
icy with which the management
has ever been credited. Aside
from his eminent fitness for the
place, COL. Russell has a hold up
on the people of both Alabama
and Mississippi second to no man
and implicit faith is placed in
him his integrity and ability both
as a private citizen and railroad
man. The management have
taken a step in the right direction
to make the line popular with
the business public and if Col.
Russell is furnished with the ne
cessary means the line will be
put in first class condition.

The speech of Secretary Root
at Utica in New York last week
in opposing the election of Hearst
as governor Of the state was one
of the bitterest attacks ever made
and fails to do honor to Mr.. Root
or to President Roosevelt who
has inspired it. The history of
politics of the country will not
furnish another such speech and
it's delivery by man occupying
the place Mr.. Root occupies makes
one feel that republican politics
is dirty from top to bottom, with
no exceptions. Such utterances
coming from a man representing
a party as Root does the repub-
lican party stamps the entire out
fit as dirty.

Election Tuesday.

The election Tuesday resulted
in a victory for the republican
ticket in New York, Hughes de-
feating Hearst by 10000 votes,
and also a majority for the re-
publicans in the national house
of representatives. From pres
ent indications the republican
majority will be reduced, but
sufficient majority is retained to
make the house solid from a re-
publican standpoint. Tennessee
went democratic by $4,000 ma
!ority, H. Clay Evans being again
showed under. In Memphis the
regular democratic ticket for the
legislature was elected over the
independents. The election in
the city was more of a riot than
a legal affair.

The printers of the new code
are still hung up on the job and
it is a matter Of no certainty that
the new code will be delivered
this year. There seems to be
an evil fate following the code
and when it is distributed the
lawyers will begin their work of
picking it to pieces. The legis-
lature repudiated much OF the
work done by the commissioners
and declined to allow the COM
missioners to appear and explain;
there were a number of chapters
reported missing when delivered
t, the printers, but this over
sight was corrected; the legisla-
ture, however, failed to make
sufficient appropriation by ST.
5000 TO cover all expenses and
the printers are dependent upon
the next legislature to cover the
deficit.

Pert Paragraphs.

Some people couldn't keep
from taking trouble even if they
were vaccinated for it.
In order to become a great po-
ct the first necessity is to hypno-
tie a great editor.
A fool and his lies are soon
run down.
Every song of success has its
chorus of knockers.
The people who talk about love
being a beautiful dream often
turn marriage into an ugly
nightmare.
An unloaded gun is as effec-
tive as the other kind until the
bluff is called.
The law is no respecter Of per-
sons; neither should it be Of
dollars.

One of the most interesting

the occasion was the Confederate
Veterans parade on horseback

devide their thoughts as silently

sound Of drum-beat or bugle call

ded by loyal and chivalric sons

that gray heads were barred, aad
a few tears trickled down when
the words of Dixie floated out
upon the breeze-but a remauent
of the band of 46 years ago, but
but loyal still. All honor them.
