Heinze Reform Gang Aids Crime in Butte.
Shameful Brutality.

voice of protest drifted down from a

The Heinze reform" forces have
no intention of stopping crime, in

The only question is, how long can
the working class be fooled into up

Woman's Mistakes.

One Of the mistakes of women, says
an exchange, is not knowing how to
eat. If a man is not to be fed, she
thinks cup of tea and anything
handy is good enough. If she needs
to save money she does it at the
butchers cost. If she is busy, she
will not waste time in eating. II she
is unhappy, she goes without food. A
man eats if the sheriff is at the door;
il his work drives; if the undertaken
interrupts; and he is right, A woman
will chose ice cream instead Of beef
steak and a man will not. Another
of her mistakes is in not knowing
when to rest. If she is tired she may
sit down, but she will darn stockings,
crochet shawls, embroider doilies.
Does she not know such work tires?
If she is exhausted, she will write
letters or figure her accounts. She
would laugh at you if you limited that
reading or writing could fail to rest
her. All oyer the country woman's
hospitals flourish because women
don't know how to rest. Another
mistake on the list is their constant
worrying. Worry and hurry are their
enemies, and yet they hug them to
their bosoms. Women cross bridges
before they come to them, and even
build bridges to cross. They imagine
misfortune and run out to meet it,.
Women are not jolly enough. They
make too serious business of life, and
laugh at its humors too seldom. Men
can stop in the midst of perplexities
and have a hearty laugh, and it keeps
them young. Women cannot, and
that is one reason why they fade so
early-there are other reasons, but we
will pass them now. Worry not only
wrinkles the face; but it wrinkles and
withers the mind. Have a hearty
laugh once in while; it is good anti
septic and will purify the mental at
mosphere, drive away evil imaginings,
bad temper and other ills.

WITH this issue the MINER begins
another year on its laps. We are
eleven years old and start the
twelfth with the good wishes of a
large number of friends. There are
also some who care not whether
the paper lives longer or not and
to these we will say that the feel
ings are reciprocrated insofar as
they are concerned. We wish
heartily to thank our patrons for
their support in the past trusting
to be remembered in the future.
The MINER digs" for Ely and it's
people all the time. News detri-
mental to the city and scandal
find no place in these columns and
the success of the paper is largely
due to these omissions. Every
body has a "cadaver" or two in
their closets and therefore it is
better to let such things alone.

the reputation of any town is not
enhanced by spreading such stuff
broadcast. We are still doing bust

COTTON ACREAGE l. A

The position Ct Mississippi's farm
erS at the convention of the South
ern Cotton Association at New Or
leans is explained by DR.. Will II.
Woods, secretary of the Mississippi
Cotton Association, who states that
the proposed reduction Of rs per
cent. in acreage does not necessarily
mean a limitation Of farming opera
lions in the state during the coming
crop year.
ut is in keeping with the resolu-
tions passed at the recent state con
ventions in Jackson explains Sec
rotary Woods, these conventions adj
vocating that only one-half of the
tillable lands of the state be planted
in cotton, and that the remaining
one-half be planted in corn, hay,
cereals, potatoes, and other crops.
Mississippi proposes, in other words,
to reduce her acreage by the d.
versifcation of crops. President
Clark at the convention in New
Orleans warned our people that the
banks we're groaning under the load
they were carrying, and advised
that the farmers protect the mer-
chants and bankers as the merchants

him to hold his cotton to await bet
ter prices, and only sell as much
cotton to await better prices, and
only sell as much cotton at prevail
ing prices as will relieve the present
situation and meet existing needs.
Georgia and Texas have sold their
crops, and Mississippi is one of the
holding states at the present time.
Our state is in better position, as
we see and understand it, to de-
mand fifteen cents for her crop.
The farmers of Mississippi are
thoroughly imbued with the neces-
sity at this time, when no expansion

p has decided the famous Sandy
Bayou case, and decided it against
the Governor, who sought to re.
strain a majority Of the Board OF
Control and the warden from max,
ing a contract with II. J. McLaurin
for the lease Of his plantation.
Judge Calhoon delivered the
opinion Of the court, which vas alsC
sustained and reinforced by a spec.
lal opinion by Judge Truly, to The
effect that the Governor had no right
to bring the suit, which right be,
i0nged exclusively to the Attorney
General, he being the law officer OF
the State.
Chief Justice Whitfield delivered
a dissenting opinion, holding that
the Governor did have the right to
bring the suit and that the Board Of
Control had violated the law in
making the contract with McLaurin.
The opinion Of the court is one Of
the most important ever delivered
in this State, and will be read with
extraordinary interest, as it settles a
great principle, and clearly defines
the rights, powers and privileges of
both the Governor and the Attorney
General.
