The Truth About Greenville

There is one thing that can be said
about Greenvillc, and that is, what
ever it does it does right, and what
ever it has to offer is the best th,.
markets of the world afford
Nothing evidences the truthfulness
OF the above statement more than the
handsome delivery outfit of Messrs.
c. NJ. & E. G. Ham. No city i'll the
United States, large or small, has a
more handsome outfit which con-
s;sts of a heavy draft, matched team
Of grays and a large and attractivcly
painted furniture van, which cost the
firm near the thousand dollar mark.
Both members Of the firm are proud
Of it and justly should be, because it
shows an enterprise and progre ssive-
ness seldom found in business firm
in a city of this size.

Vardaman in the Senate; Williams in
the House

The voters in the senatorial race.
should remember that Mr.. Williams
has just begun 4 two years term in
congress, and at that he can easily be
reelected as representative at the
end Of the present term.
Mr.. Vardaman's term as governor
will expire in less than six months
from today.
Vardaman's splendid service to the
state, as governor, entities him to the
good will of the people. He will per-
form even better service in the u S.
senate, and we are certain the people
of Mississippi will send him there.
Vardaman is a man of extraordinary
ability, extraordinary eloquence. and
unexcxe11ed political courage. He will
prove to be an able, influential aud
dignifed senator
Mr. Williams is alright iii the

vited to keep him there V'rk3burg

the receipt by Gov. Vardaman of a

before the time Of the speaking. The
telegram was addressed TO Gov Jas.
X Vardaman, Meridian, Miss, and
read:
"Alcorn county friends send greet
ings We are with you today in spir-
it il not in person, and we will be
with you on election day with our

OUR NEXT
SENATOR

Gov. Vardaman is receiving grand
ovations everywhere he speaks. The
people are all anxious to hear him
upon the repeal OF the fifteenth
amendment, which shows that the ne
gro question is one of the foremost
issues notwithstanding the fact that
the Hon. John Sharp Williams and
a fe wothers argue to the contrary
In proof of this we reproduce the last
paragraph taken from dispatch re-
port of one OF his recent speeches at
Columbus, which said:
AT II O'Clock he entered the court
house amid the shouts of over one
thousand people Who were there u
hear him, and some of them had trat-
eled many miles to avail themselves
of the opportunity. :. When he took
his seat the applause was long and
deafening, and III order to get to the
train the governor left the court
room by a side entrance. The crowd
followed him to the train, and as it
pulled out the governor game out or
the platform, and when the crowd be-
gan to cheer he waved and threw kiss
es back to the ladies'. One thing re
markable about the meeting was the
large number of country people who
came miles to hear him.

THE PRESENT
DAY STRIFE

The life of the present day is a life
| of strife and turmoil, spirit of un-
rest and dissatisfaction This. to q
large extent, it due to the fact that
the great mass OF Our people are con
gregating in the cities where the
fight for livelihood as we'll as fol
wealth, starts from the minute Of en-
tering and continues to the grave
and with the advancing of prices tbs
strife grows more bitter with the
passing of each day.
Look along any street of big city
and you can see a country youth
slowly sauntering along with his eyes
cast upward at the tall skyscrapers,
Or admiring a fashionably dressed
passerby, and is wishing in his heat t
some day to be the passerby and &C
cupying one of the offices in the big
buildings.
That day on which he. turns his
back upon the old farm, where the
bceauties Of life are Gods and not
man't handiwork, where the rising
sun in all its granduer can be seen
each morn in the place of the tall
skyscraper, and where the whistle OF
the Bob White and the song of the
knocking bird is heard in the place Oh
the milk and ice man. banana vendor
or brass band, IN most cases. proves
an illfated day for the misguided ard
1iseruntled youth.
On the farm, with firm grip OF
the'plow handle, turning over the soil
for natures wealth, he is his o.
boss, and by brain and Drawn can de
mand from the world the price for
his products; ard by education and
study he will be sought in times OF
the country's need, for the great men
called from the pillow handles and
farm. have been the ones who have
solved the most perplexing questions
and problems of the nation.

A MISTAKE OF THE
LEVEE BOARD

The Times, as a newspaper OF tn.
district, and one which has the intre-
ests of the people at heart, feels that
our levee board made a mistake las!
Tuesday in voting to sustain their
ruling on the collection of the back
tax on excess cotton.
There is no act that the levee COM
nissioners could have passed, and
especially in the close times We are
now experiencing, that would bring
down more censure upon their head,
by the people of this district who IA
vor levees and who stand ready and
willing to help raise them by voting
bonds or higher taxation, etc, than
this back tax act.
AS we see it, this is not case OF
the people shipping cotton out of the
district to escape the tax On the
other hand everyone has paid the tax
of $Ioo per bale, Qarge or smalD and
this was accepted by all former le~
wee boards in full settlement 1t is
two planters were forced to pay a
higher tax, but it was because they
used Jumbo press which made their
bales weigh from seven hundred to- a
thousand pounds, and did it to escape
taxation, which is not the case of the
planters that resolution is expected
to affect today.
Another wrong that this resolution
does is that it places a stigma upon
every planter sued by publishing to
the world that he is a tax dodger
If the weight of the entire crop OF
cotton of a mans plantation could
be divided by the 522 pounds agreed
upon as bale for a dollar tax, and
he was required to pay only on the
excess, which is fair, we believe that
the tax collected would not justify
the collector or board to bring suit
and that the matter would be
dropped. 1t is true that the law
says that the cotton tax for the cot
ton tax collector of the board to col
lect is one-hfth Of one cent per pound
but it has never been demanded by
the collectors themselves at the time
when they had the weights of tKs
bales before them. or could have had
them Then, and not now, after the
passing of two years when the cor
ton has all changed hands, would
have been the time to have demanded
the payment
To say the least of it, this ex-
cess on every bale raised by our
planters is a hard one and we think
unfair, and if the other sections of
the state of Mississippi would do
their part by this district as the state
OF Louisiana does by its levees, it
would not be required Harmony
our people and 1evee senti-
ment is what our district wants and
we hope our commissioners VIII
think over the matter carefully ami
when they meet again next Monday
resc1nd their action upon it.
