A Clear Exclamation

A Southern congressman recently went into a barber shop in small Tennessee town to get haircut. The barber, after the usual flow of conver- sation, completed the job and, turning to his customer. asked:
 Tennessee or Georgian"
 Somewhat mystified by the sigular question, but determined not to show his ignorance, the congressman replied:
 Georgia
 The barber then proceeded to brush his hair "dry."-F'rOm the Bohemian for December

If the regularly constituted an- thorities of Tennessee were as prompt and determined in the matter of punishing crime as that Reelfoot Lake mob the other day the surviv- ing friends of the late Senator Car mack would be satisfied.

Not a White Mans Party.

John A. McAyeal, a proml-

lifelong Republican, has become
a Democrat for reasons he gives,

Henry N. Pharr A Democrat.

1t is refreshing as well as
gratifying to note that as Taft
is PROSECUTING the South for
Democratic votes that Henry N.
Pharr has repudiated the
Grand Old Party and has given
his allegiance to the Democracy
In the Republican party IN
Louisiana there is no man who
commanded greater respect and
consideration than Mr.. Pharr.
He had been led to believe that
he could accomplish the impossi-
BILE. He had entertained the
fancy that young men could De

but this fallacy dawned force
fully on him when he realized
that there could be no Republl-
can party without the negro

Ohio. Indiana, Illinois and other
States of the North would be IN

mo his canvass of the State, IN
the cubernatorial campaign, Mr.
Pharr won the admiration OF tht
people by his manly course, il
the advocacy of a white Republl
can party, and when finally hi
was constrained to face the issu'
he revolted against the recognl

PatrOnize the Steamboats,,

The way to help the steam.
boats keep in business is to give
them all the business you can.
No better nor more comfortable |
style of travelling could be con-
ceiyed than is to be found on the
Mississippi steamers. True,
the old palatial steamers are not
in operation, but the boats of
this day are differed by the
same kind of whole hearted, gen
erous and courteous men as
those of before the war, and the
table is supplied with all the deli
cacies of the season just as they |
were in the days of long ago and
comfort, good, solid comfort, is
the rule on every boat. Some
of the finest scenery in the
world is to be seen along the
Mississippi river and no happier
trip could be devised than is to
be found on these boats. For
few days outing a round trip on
either the Betsy Ann or the
Senator Cordill is recommended
with the knowledge that the
traveller will find that it is just
as represented and a round trip
means an outing that will satisfy
any man, woman or child.
Steamboats, should also re
ceive a full share of patronage.
If sufficient freight is offered
through boats will be operated
and in this way rates would be
equalized. So far as delivery
is concerned numerous mer-
chants have complained of delay
in shipments by rail and there
are hundreds of instances
wherein it has taken more time
to receive goods shipped from
St. Louis to NatcheZ via rail
than was the case in the days
: of the old Anchor Line. The
+ support given to the movemen'
for a deep waterway from the
t Lakes to-the Gulf and to the Ma
7 tional Rivers and Harbors Con
r gress is all that could be desired
2 but the patronage given to tn
; steamboats, in operation is not a
t all compatible with the interes
d in the movements to obtain ap
preparations for the other pre-
l. iects named in this sentence

The UnWritten Law Again.

People who appeal to the 'un-
written law must have care
lest this defense come into dis
repute with the public. There
are comparatively few instan-
ces where the "unwritten law
is invoked with just the proper
degree of moral right. 1t is a
dangerous doctrine, easily
abused and not altogether calcu-
lated to promote that respect for
the written law which is the
foundation of organized society.
