William Jennings Bryan at the Old World
Centers Where History is
Being Made.

The great COmmOner, II Of the
two Americans most in the universal
eye, is making a tour which will be
memorable in interest and importance.
He has already visited Hawaii, Japan,
Corea and China, and is now in the
Philippines. His ~itenerary will then
include India, Palestine, Egypt and
the various countries of Europe. Az
ter crossing the Atlantic and spending
q brief time at home, he will make a
special trip 70 Australia and New Ze-
land.
Mr.. Bryan'S reputation insureS him
opportunities for observation given to
few men. He knows what the Amer
lean people want to know, and he
knows, too, how to look and how to
describe what he sees. Therefore his
letters will have a human interest, a
literary and a new value above SINH
lar messages from almost any other
writer, statesman or traveller.
The Philippine question, the future
of Japan, the fate of China, the
mighty changes stirring in India, the
renewed attention to Palestine, be-
cause of ZiOnism, the criciS confront
ing the Russian Empire, the modern
izing Of Egypt, are topics all intelli-
gent readers are eager to have light
upon. All readers may not agree
with Mr.. Bryan, but all will appre-
ciate the chance to hear what he has
to say. They will have the full series
in the Sunday P~icayune, already the
greatest Sunday paper in the South.
Illustrations will accompany the ar
ticleS, and like them will be up-to-the-
minute.
Mr.. Bryan'S first letter will appear
Sunday, January IA.

Our State Senator, from this dis.
trict, Capt. James Moore, who resides
at Oakland, recently introduced a bill
in the state senate proposing to an.
mex the western portion of Yalobu-
sha county to Tallahatchie. The
Capt, of course, thought that this
would be pleasing to the Tallahatch-
lie citizenship, but he soon found him
self the target of the eastern part of
the people of his W county as well
as those in Tallahatchie. 1t was a
rather strange condition of things and
is the first occasion that we can re-
call that any county refused to have
territory annexed. Charleston kind
7er viewed the proposition as a wood
en- horse and thought that the ulti-
mate would be an attempt to remove
the court house, hence she was I'D
and preparing for the suspected. AS
neither side seems to be pleased at
the proposition, we presume that Sem
stor Moore will not press the matter
any further.

A REALLY GREAT MAN.

He who would be greater among
men must render the greatest service.
This service is not necessarily the one
| who does the most with his hand, O
is he necessarily the one who accom-
pliSheS the most with his head. A
great artisan is a great blessing to
mankind in the products OF his hand.
The greatest promoter and organizer
is a blessing to mankind in giving
such direction to handicraft as will
yield the greatest return for any given
amount of effort. The skilled artisan,
however, would soon find himself idle.
but for the inventive genius and organ
izing power of the pro notcr. On the
other hand, the ideas of the inventive
genius, the planning person, would be
Still-born, but for the skilled hand of
the trained artisan to fashion his FAN
cies. The artisan, therefore, great
though he may be, is incomplete in
and of himself, and just as true is it
that the most ingenius seer, and
prophet, would often in and of him
self be merely an idle dreamer.
What then determines the truly |
great artisan? The artisan that rec
OgniSed that he is the complement
of the planning genius, and recogniz-
ing this, does his work the more eff
fectively us he does it the more gladly.
What determines the truly great
organizer: The promoter, or organ
izer, who recognizes the man who does
the work as his complement and re-
spects him as a part of himself. Thel
awaits only the universal
recognition OF the truth Incorporated
this article. All human interests
form a composite whole, but we do
not believe it. We suffer because of
our unbelief.

In a recent issue of this paper we
urged that the salaries of the Mayor,
and the members of the city council
be raised, and gave, what we
considered, good reasons for same.
Many of our citizens, in discussing
the matter with US personally, en-
dorSed the proposition and we have
yet to hear of any one opposing it we
think it would be money we'll invested
aud would return to the city an hun
dred fold. We understand that, the
city Democratic Executive Committee
at its meeting on the 10th discussed
memoralizing the city council to in
crease the salaries of certain city Of
Gals along the lines we have indi-
Gated. We know full well that there
is not a member of the present board
of Alderman that feels that they
have received adequate compensation
for the time and labor they have
given to the city, so why not act the
part of wisdom and open up every
avenue for the incoming administra-
tionto give the city it's very best SER
vice? The tax payers will endorse
it and it will, in the end, be a mon
ey saving proposition.

co SLOW.

| The idea Is being pretty well dis
Siminated at Jackson that certain
salaries should be raised and that GER
tain officials are ~overworked. In fact,
il the lead of certain ones is followed
the legislature will most probably
raise everything and even the tax pay
er out Of his boots. 1t is urged that
the judges of the supreme court are
overworked and that they do not have
the actual time to review the records
ia all the cases upon which they must
pass judgment, and hence there needs
to be an increase in the number Of the
supreme judges. This may be SO
but to our mind the, evidence. is
against the proposition. The supreme
court takes a three months vacation
every summer. The Governor does
not do this neither does any of the
other state officials. We know OF no
lawyer in the state that takes such a
long leave of absence from the duties
of his Office nor any other business
man that finds that much time for
recreation.
From many quarters comes the cry
that the circuit judgesl and chancel-
lors are overworked, and hence arises
the necessity of creating new court
districts. This may be true, but if
SO, some of our public men are becom-
ing physically unable to perform but
a very small amount Of work. The
truth Of the matter is, that the
demand for more judges and more
court districts finds it's SOurce some
where in the brain of somebody who
wants an official plum. It is claimed
that in some circuit court districts
the dOcketS are over-run and that the
courts are unable to catch up with the
work. Frequently this is due to a
lack Of tact and methodical work upon
the part of the presiding judge. In
fact, courts are generally run with
very little regard to the expense &C.
count. For instance, in our own
county the term is limited to twelve
days. Many times the court does not
get down to business until about the
noon hour on Monday, then adjourn
ment is had at moor on Saturday
for the convenience and pleasure of
the court. 1t is reconvened at a late
hour on the following Monday and adj
at an early hour again on
Saturday, and in place OF having a
term of twelve days, really only ten is
had, while the county is paying for
These things are business
and should be measured
by a business standard, rather than

which the state is enjoying force it

HON. EARLE BREWER ANNOUNCES
FOR GOVERNOR.

The formal announcement OF Hon.
Earle Brewer Of Clarksdale, Of his
candidacy for governor will be pleas
log news to his friends Throughout
the state, and especially in North
Mississippi where he is best known.
1t is a well known fact that he has
h ID the matter under consideration
for a long while and he has at last
yielded to the opportunities Of his
, legionS Of friends and admirers to en-
ter the race. Mr.. Brewer is a splendid
representative Of the young demOcra-
cy. He is a magnetic individual, a
man of high ideals, of lofty ambition
Of the highest integrity and Of unim-
peachable character, and should the
people OF the state sec fit to make
him their chief executive he would
= add new honor to the office that has
been filled by some Of the best, ableSt
and grandeSt men of the nation. He
was born and reared in Carroll COun-
ty, Mississippi, and is another n of
those illuStriOuS sons that had to fight
the battles Of poverty and provide for
q widowed mother and her other de-
pendent ones. AS a boy he met con-
ditiOnS wisely, cOurageouSly and brave
~ as he has ever done since. He has
more than fulfilled every expectation
Of his trends and in every public
trust made a record of which any
man might we'll be proud.
Mr.. Brewers candidacy means a
contest pitched upon a high plane and
should he be defeated, it means that
the successful candidate will have
passed through a contest in which
every inch of the ground was hOtly
contested and that no issue before the
public was not ably discussed.
1t is conceded by even those in
clined to the candidacy of some one
else that Mr.. Brewer is the man to
be recOned with and to reach the gu
bernatOrial Office, he is the man that
must be defeated.
We are confident that at the proper
time he will appear upon the hastings
and discuss the issues before the peO-
pie of the state.

ONE YEAR UNDER OUR MANAGE.
MENT.

With the last issue of The Sentinel
twelve months was finished under our
management. We have succeeded be-
yond our expectations and are deeply
grateful for the increased patronage
Of the Office. Our friends and the pub
lie generally have been charitable
with our faults and may WI express the
hope that they have not wearied in so
doing.
We have endeavOred to give our
readers a paper that would appeal to
that which is best in life. We have
stated our views positively but at the
same time it has been u aim to
manifest a proper regard for the views
and opinions Of others, because we
have long since realized that no M
man has a patent on correct concur
SionS, or the dissemination Of uner-
ring Judgment. 1t is our purpose to
he fair and just on all occasions. BY
this rule we shall continue to try to
measure our conduct; if we fail, it is
an error of the head and not OF the
heart.
We shall devote our best energies
to building up Of Grenada and Gren-
ada county, and to this end WI invoke
the aid of all good citizens.
