THERE IS NO PLACE LIKE HOME.

That's true," said an old reliable customer of ours to his friend the other day. Say, do you know, no matter where, go visiting I'm very seldom pleased with the tea or cof- fee they serve us at lunch. We al ways get our tea, coffee and butter at PHELAN'S, and it's always so stimulating and appetizing and, what's best of all, the quality is al ways uniform, and every time we sit at the table we're sure the drinks will be the o. K kind" Well, said his friend, T also believe
 THERE IS NO PLACE LIKE MY
 HOME,
 simply because the tea, coffee and butter is N. G. They are purchased at some of those huxter, Cheap John stores where they give trading stamps, and they don't give darn what the quality is so long as they get them catch penny stamps. But I'll put an end to that business. I'll go to PHELAN'S myself and get the good tasting kind" We'll, well, 1T he does come to our store he won't get any trading stamps, but he will get the very best quality of tea and coffee to be had for the price. Of course the "old lady" will be ''stung" and, "by gosh," it will be the price of her. This week we give butter crock with a pound of warranted good Soc tea at

METHINKS, THE LADY DOTH
PROTEST TOO MUCH.

The kind of literature recently
promulgated by Tom Dixon, Ben
Tillman, Jim Vardaman and other
mendacious, jimcrow rabble-rousers,
has had a wide circulation all over
the world and has done much to
create the impression that the poor
white woman of the South was in "a
most deplorable condition, caused by
the lustful and brutal Afro-Americans
who, at every point beset her path
and lay in wait for her in every
thicket. The poor white woman was
represented as being virtually con-
hned to her home, not daring to visit
her nearest neighbor, to go to the
well or to milk the COW. Her path
was everywhere beset by the william
Gus AfroAmerican. These reckless
exaggerations of the actual situation
gained a wide circulation and were
widely believed, because the southern
newspapers thought that they answer
ed a political purpose, and allowed
them to remain uncontradicted. But
those newspapers are beginning to
discover that these lies are. doing
something not originally contemplate
ed, and are defeating the thing at
present most desirable in southern
eyes, the securing of white immigra-

dacy of her favorite son, Gov. James
X. Vardaman, for the United States
senate
"This, his home county, will give
him solid vote, not simply because
of local pride, nor because he has
made one of the fairest and best gov
ernors the state has ever had, but be-
cause he stands for white supremacy
and white mans rule in all of the
United States. I will try he said,
to secure the repeal of the war-born,
Negro-voting fifteenth amendment.
lie will do what he can to place the
government of this country into the
hands of the great mass of tax-pay-
ing, law-abiding liberty-loving white
people wherever they may live.
Whether it be the Chinese or Japan
csc problem on the Pacific slope, or
the Italian, or the Negro problem in
south or the immigration problem in
the East, he will stand for the right
and power of the Anglo-Saxon to
control state and national govern
ment."
In this connection, it is of some in
terest to note the fact that Lehore
county is named from a big Indian
chief who once lived there and OF
whom, it is said, Vardaman is de-
scendant. So the Mississippi cham
plon of white supremacy is himself
not white man, otherwise than by
legal enactment, and the circular is
sued by his friends, while it specifies
what he will do in the case of the
Chinese, the Japanese and even the
Italians, says not a word about how
he will dispose Of the Indians. AS
to the power. of the Anglo-Saxon to
control state and national govern
ment, the talk is not ffrst-class non
sense, for nobody knows what an
Anglo Saxon is. - -.

ton. Therefore those journals are
beginning to. revile the above-men-
toned reckless prevaricators as slam
derers of the south and doing that
section an injury.
The Aberdeen (Miss.) Examiner
handles the Vardaman argument thus:
1--WE have no hesitation in declaring
that this state in all that makes for
morality and good order will compare
favorably with any other in the Union,
or any foreign land. Crime is as rare
here as in any land under the sun, and
life and property and safety of person
and goods as secure in Mississippi as
anywhere else under the sun, and in
this assertion we are supported by the
grand jury reports at every term in
almost every county in the common
wealth.
AS to the crime of crimes that
supplies the governors stereotyped
theme in his senatorial campaign, and
evokes his most telling oratorical out
bursts and dramatic pastures, it is
far rarer in Mississippi than in any
state in the North or West, and we
doubt if all the instances occurring
during his administration would bal
ance or parallel the record of any
large city for single month. These
terrible pictures and forensic haran-
CUES would, if regarded, bar out de-
sirable white immigration and make
this, indeed, black mans country.
"He wildly depicts the dangers that
environ the homes, though every one
in the state knows there is not one
farm house in a dozen in the state
where the doors are locked at
night, and that in numerous cases
during the summer the doors and
windows are left wide open from sun
to SUN, without dream of danger"
The Memphis Commercia1-Appeal
quotes the article and confirms the
oteiINHiShto VI lllc EAdlullltI DIS 1Ol-
lows:
1T is undoubtedly true, too that
farm house doors and windows are
left unlocked in Mississippi, and
property there is not guarded with
anything like the care and system
which seems essential to it's safety in
the North and East.
These facts are true. Life and
property are quite secure in Mississippi
pi. 1t would be 1amentable, indeed,
should any other idea get abroad by
reason of a great Mississippi political
campaign"
The APPEAL is indeed grateful
to both Of these journals for their
evidence that the o-American of
the South is not as black as he is
painted, and hopes that. both of them
Will try to impress upon the minds
Of their readers the fact that vii
famous course almost invariably leads
to results not at all in contemplation
when such course was inaugurated.
AS an illustration it may be mentioned
that the rebellion led not to the
establishment, but to the abolition of
slavery.
