originated the idea Of collecting a
carload of roses to be sent to
northern city for distribution among
the hospitals. Kansas City was Sc
lected as the city to be the recipient
of this graceful courtesy because OF
tn fact that 1t is the northern ter
minus OF the Kansas City Southern
railroad.
In Beaumont are many thousand
beautiful and fragrant roses bloom
ing daily. while in Kansas City roses
are out of season. and few are avail
able for the sick at the hospitals
Recognizing this situation, tlt
Beaumont chamber of commerce pro
posed that the people of Beaumont
gather from their wealth OF roses
a supply to BIZ sent to Kansas City
The chamber of commerce had the
cooperation of the Uni charities,
every church guild in hont and
many other organizatio Fl esterda'
the rooms of the chamber OF com
merce at Beaumont were turned in
to a big warehouse for receiving
roses. The roses came from the
rose gardens Of Beaumont, and up
on each contribution was a tag Civ
ing the name Of the sender and the
inscriptions: Grown In the open
air and plucked January II. 1907
in Beaumont, Tex.
The roses, betwei 900 and
$4,000 worth, wer h in q

for Kansas City last night. The
purpose Of the Texans was to send
enough roses to supply all the pub
lie hospitals in Kansas City and t.

angels used ladder, since they all

by the report that whitecaps were at
work in the community. Two negro
churches had been burned. One was
destroyed in the early part of the
week and when the second was
burned on Saturday night deter
mined effort was made to capture the
mauraders. Bloodhounds were Sc
cured from Oxford and the trail led
them to the house of Calvin Jenkins,

rested charged with qhe offense.
The prisoners were carried to Sena-

pay the cost of his detention; he
should make restitution in all cases

To the Voters Of DeSoto County:

/ hereby announce myself candi-
date for the lower house of the legis-
lature, subject to the action of the
democratic primaries. Having a def
mite plan in mind for building up the
material and moral interests of the
state, think it proper to give a brie-
outline of the principles and measures
I shall advocate before the people at
the proper time.
1st, I am committed to the cause of
good roads, and in order to promote
the cause wish to exempt broad-tir-
ed wagons from taxation.
End, want the railroads and all
other franchise corporation to bear
their full share of their burden Of tax
alton, but / am mindful of the fact
that general and indiscriminating tax
alton of all values owned by these
corporations will always result either
in increased charges or inferior SER
vice, very often in both, therefore l
advocate the concentration of taxes
upon the franchise value of these cor
porations. The shortage of cars has
cost us many thousands of dollars in
storage and insurance of cotton, to
say nothing of other things. These
railroad gentlemen should be encour-
aged to put on the best equipment
they can possibyly use.
3rd, favor liberal support of edu-
cation, but the building of school
houses and the employment Of teach
ers is not the whole of the school
question. There are poor white pee
pie who are unable to maintain their
children as they feel they ought; there
are thousands of farmer lads all over
the state who are gathering crops
when school begins and preparing for
the next years crop before the ses-
sion ends. This is one Of the social
effects Of allowing powerful interests
to escape their just share of taxation.
The reader can easily infer the rem
edy.

WILLING TO TRY AGAIN
Negroes Released From Matrimony Take
on Yoke Again.

Circuit Clerk Logan has been doing
a pretty good business in the marriage
license line this week. This unusual
activity was caused by the large num-
Der of divorce DEGREES granted by the
chancellor. All of the contracting
parties were negroes. One couple re-
quested Rev. w. E. Lee to tie the
nupital knot, but his request was re-
fused. He will not marry a couple
either of whom has been divorced.
