TEXAS RAILROADS

Austin, July 2S.-Texas railroads have decided to oppose in the courts the state railroad commission or ders requiring them to purchase new equipment to the value of s14,000,00o.

Plantation for Rent

We desire to make a five year con tract on a place as desirable from every standpoint as the best farm in the Little Rock district cotton lands.
 There are 1900 acres in the tract, 900 of which are in a high state of cultivation. The place is thoroughly dtched and is clean all over It is above the highest overflow, without levee. Soil is mostly rich, sandy loam varied occasionally by a mix ture of sandy and stiff soil.
 Gin, press and engine comparative ly new There is an attractive cot tage for lessee. The tenants houses are probably the best in the district. ;
 There is railroad station on the place, and it is also reached by about 10 miles of pike out of Little Rock.
 The place is well stocked with live stock and implements, which must be purchased by the lessee. Likewise the lease must be made by a financial ly responsible person, or must carry a strong endorsement.
 Any one with money, Who does not own his own place, will, we believe, find this a great opportunity.

Much talk, emi1ating in our
opinion largely from those who have a
political ak to grind, is being INDUCED
in ia legislative circles about a con-
stitutional convention in order that
south Mississippi may come into pos
session of her full rights in the ad-
ministrative affairs of the state S
government. South Mississippi
should have what she is justly entitled
to. She should be put on an equal
footing with the balance of the state.
all of which, we feel quite sure, car
be done without a constitutional con.
vention. It would be a pity indeed
that the future progress and develop
ment of the state should be handicap
ped by an imaginary north Missis'
sippin and south Mississippi. This
would, in the end, serve nobody but
the politicians. Let the matter bt
handled in a spirit of fairness to al
Sections of the state and that measure
| will be evolved which will be just ant
fair to the entire citizenship of the
state.

A~SpLENDED SHOWING.
Forty thousand Barrels Sold.
Mr.. A. T. McElwrath,

Mr.. A. T. McElwrath,
Grenada, Miss.
Dear Sir: We are pleased to
advise you that during the year 1907
the Grenada Mere. Co., Grenada,
Miss, sold over 1900 barrels of
Dainty flour, more than any other
one dealer in north Mississippi.
We have shipped into north Missis-
sippi during the year 1907 over 49,
900 bbls. Of Dainty flour, and we can
say without exception that we have
not received any kind of complaint
and every barrel has given perfect
satisfaction.
Considering the fact that Dainty
flour has been used in most Of the
best hotels colleges and in many pri-
vate homes under tie guarantee to
give perfect satisfaction would indi-
cate that the flour is Of the highest
quality, and we aSSure you that we
are very much gratltied at the results.
We beg to advise you further that
we haved shipped into Grenada
county alone during 1907, 4247 bar
rels of Dainty flour, showing that as
the years roll round Dainty flour is
rapidly gaining ground in your home
county. Yours very truly,
Waller s. Spies Milling Co.

had a dozen tailor suits, n OF which
cost So, 900, six dozen pairs of gloves,
8 dozen suits of under clothes, two
dozen parasols and silk stockings and
slippers by the score-the whole out
fit costs ten Thousand times what il
takes to marry off a Mississippi girl,
a girl that we dare say is as many
tines Miss Vanderbilt's superior in al
that goes to make a good wife.

IL Should Pass.

The following bill relative to public
printing. introduced by Senator Nc
of Warren county, IN the state
senate, should pass:
Section L. Be it enacted by the
legislature Of the state of Mississippi,
that all printing, blank books, re-
cords, reminding of record books,
stationary and Office supplies of the
various counties shall be bought and
made in the state of Mississippi by
the respective counties.
Sec. 2. The letting of contracts,
making of bonds, terms of contracts,
ETC., shall be the same as required by
act in relation to the state printing
Sec. 3. Bids for county printing
and supplies must be accompanied by
positive and satisfactory evidence
that the bidder is a citizen of the
state of Mississippi and has had
printing plant in active operation ir
the state Of Mississippi for at leas,
twelve months prior to the date O
making a bid, and shall have pait
taxes un said plant for the fiscal yea
next preceding.
Sec. d. 1t shall be unlawful foI
any successful bidder to sub-let an,
portion of his contract outside TIN
borders of the state of Mississippi, O
to any printing or binding establish
ment that has not been in activ
operation within the state of MiSSis
sippi for at least n year prior t
the date of making such subcontract
and shall have paid taxes on same fo
the fiscal year next preceding.
Ser, 5 That this act shall take ei
feet and be in force frCm and after it
passage.
The enactment Of such a la
would keep thousands, perhaps MOI
than a million, dollars in the stat
that annually goes out of il and W
feel sure that just as good Wor
could be procured and perhaps
lower prices.

The editor of Il local paper is often
unjustly censured for his mistakes.
The wonder is that he does not make
more Of them. On the average paper
he must deal with all kinds of sub
jects, give the names, dates, etc. One
hour he may be engaged in reporting
a religious meeting and the next
drawing the picture of a fight. He
must condense and fill with his items
several columns, whether events are
transporting to throw up material for
his use or not. Count the local items
in a paper and imagine how many
steps they have required, how much
mental anxiety, worry and work they
have cost and some idea of the editors
work can be gathered. The smallest
may have cost him a long walk and
much effort to reach the facts. There
is no end to his work. When one
paper goes to press he turns his at
tent!on to the next one. He makes
the rounds in search Of news and may
not get a line. From some he must
get news without their knowing 1t,
drawing them into conversation and
obtaining what he wants in sections.
He may labor for hours in chasing
down a rumor only to find that there
is nothing in it. His local columns
stare him in the face and demand to
be filed, not with skim milk but with
cream of the news events and matters
of interest. His bounds are limited
and yet he must find in each day and
all through the week, month and year
something of interest to the public.
No more perfect treadmill could be
devised. With such a constant
strain, producing WEAKNESS OF the
body and mind and an almost endless
variety of subjects to be touched
up On, is it surprising that he should
occasionally make a mistake? Other
people do. why shouldn't an editor?

opposite view. Undoubtedly the public

Appearances would indicate the
certain passage of a child labor law
by the present legislature. Several
bills have been introduced with that
end in view. At the present there are
1900 children under IA years Of age
employed in the various factories of
state. The law will probably prevent
the working Of children under Il
years of age and will limit the hours
of work that may be required of them
each day. Certainly some such Law
should be enacted.
