A Lack of Foresight

"A striking example OF the many

shown in our treatment of our forest

of course, will contend that we shorld
have left uncut the vast and magnifi-
cent forests which once covered so
much of the county. East of the prai
ries almost every acre of farm land

Much of this region is still woodland.
In so far as the primeval forest gave
way 10 better use of the land, and
in so far as the standing timber every.
where was converted into capital val
ne of other kinds, it unnecessary anC
unwiSe to waste any regrets on what
took place. But we did not stop will

Suppress the AnarchIstic Sheets.


Meridian Star.
Tomorrow the order of the Post
master General excluding from
the mails all publications of anar-
chistic character or tendency goes
into effect, and it is a wise and
timely move. Such publications
are social poison that the govern
ment has NJ right to aid in the dis
semmination of; they are not toll
Grated anywhere else on earth and
the result is that this country has
become the literary center of the
anarchist propaganda.
These people, driven out of Eu-
rope as dangerous public enemies
come over here to take advantage
of American freedom of speech and
press, and straightway, transl ate
freedom into license. We may not
be able to prevent the printing OF
this poisonous stuff, as they do in
Europe, but the government car
refuse to distribute it, and that
helps some.

A FaIIacious and Foolish Dream.

Southern ripley Sentinel.
Our esteemed friend Edgar G.
Harris, editor of the Hattiesburg
News, rises to remark that it is his
opinion that the state wide prohi-
bition law in Mississippi will be re-
pealed within few years. Friend
Harris is dreaming a dream that's
all dream. Mississippi takes no
backward step and she will never
again grant license to the Devil
to establish a post from which he
can deal out soul, mind and body
poison to her young manhood. Say
brother Harris train your mind to
think on the nobler and better
things of life and join in the faith
that Mississippi is growing better
and that she is welded to her i
deals,

AN ABLE AND HOPEFUL ARTICLE FOR
DEMOCRATIC VICTORY.

The attention of our readers is
directed to very stirring and en-
couraging piece appearing in this
week in another column by Hon. B.
P. Harrison, anent the National
Political Situation with Democrat
ic Success as a sequential outcome
of present condition of issues as rep
resented by the two great parties
platforms and the personalities and
records of the nominees. Harrison
was recently at the Denver Demo-
cratic National Convention at the
the behest of the Democracy of this
district of Mississippi as her dele
gate. There were gathered, as he
so well writes it down, people from
out of every state and corner al
most of the Union. Denver was
veritable political Mecca. Harri-
son is man of keen discernment,
of inciisve aggressiveness in feel
ing the pulse. He acted the part
nv OAiiJ dO NOtC-SdONC1 dklQ ODOhCo-
man for his constituency in the par
tvs National council; but was busy
with all the brilliant powers of his
intellect finding out the real senti-
ment ever the country as a whole
by listening and sounding the en-
tout ensemble from the four winds
of the country. Acting as eyes"
for his people, and this is the ex-
pressed conclusions or deductions
from what he saw. We commend
it to the careful reading of all un-
der whose range of vision Of this
humble sheet passes. It's worthy
Of wide reading, and we trust the
of the quill in this dis
.rict at least will feel at liberty to
extract freely from or pass along
along entire to their clientelles.

Cursing Under the Ban.
The Farmers Bulletin.

The Farmers Bulletin.
The newspapers of Mississippi
and their editors who can always
be found on the right side of
great moral questions, are saying
considerable these days about the
use of profanity and the ugliness
and uselessness of the habit. There
is wide divergence of opinion as
to whether the world is growing
better or worse, but there can be
little argument as to prevalence of
profane words by old and young.
1t is habit that could be easily
corrected, and should be by all
means. Nothing can be more Of
fensive to the ear of man or re-
fined woman than coarse or profane
language. This is a crusade that
deserves the earnest support of all
good people.

Lick-Log For the Blind Tigerist.
Richton Review

RichtOn Review.
Stump hole groceries on first
Street, Blind Tiger on front
street," Well such reports are
gaining currency and the way we
see it it is up to the executive to
ferret out these things and if it
should be found true the guilty
party should be brought to the
''lick-log" without respect of per-
sons and with no fear of favors. He
who runs blind tiger is just as
much a violator of law as the man
who stabs his knife into the heart
of his fellowman. The difference
in the two is in the intensity of
the crime and not in the mere
fact of breaking the law for both
are law breakers as to that mat
ter and stand on equal footing in
that regard.

A PRAISE FOR THAT THOUGHT.

1t has been just little disap-
that so far none of the
many good thinkers of Greene Counr
ty have seen fit to take advantage |
ofthe HERALD'S' Peoples Forum
department, to express their
views upon some of the numerous
important subjects engrossing the
public mind. Possibly a sugges-
ton of some themes might incite
some to take up the pen. How
would one of the following do: Is
Capital punishment morally right
or merely legally expedient for So
ciety in its present but partially
civilized state; Is Woman Suffrage
desirable entity for the American
electorate; Ought the Courts to
convene frequenter and longer to
thoroughly purge society of Grim
inality or is less of law-adminis-
tration more indicated; Should the
American Negro have discreet
praise for the progress he has
made, both slavery and freedom
conditions considered, since he
landed on these shores, or should
he be criticized as a race for not
having shown more rapid strides;
Has the pardoning power been used
too freely of late years in Mississ-
ippi to the detriment of the majes-
ty of the law and consequent re-
strictions to curtail it needed
Should a candidate for Office make
his appeal to the popular will upon
his own fitness for the position
sought or on the untitness of his OPP
ponents; Should the present court
house seating capacity be enlarged
to provide ample room to accom-
modate the average attendance on
the court and to separate the races
in the room by a gallery for the
Negroes.
This is a repertoire including
problems social, academic, gov
ernmental, racial, and local. Who
will be the first to choose one OF
these propositions for a nice sensi-
BILE and charitable article. Surely
some of the sages of Old Greene
are opinionated on some if not
all of these questions, which opin'
ions if committed to paper we know
would make lively and instructive
reading and doubtless provoke dis
cussion that will lead to better un-
derstanding of the phases of them
Write what you think regardless OF
what opinion you believe this edi-
tor intertains. We are persuaded
that much profit can come from {
series of treatises of this kind IRON

THE PREROGATIVE EDITORIAL.

This particular portion of the pa
per, and its a small proportion
compared with the total columnage
of the sheet, is reserved for the
thinklets of the publisher. Those
who do not care to come in contact
with his notions and opinions, can
take warning from the sign "Edi-
torial" which appears at its top,
and get out of danger by skipping
about two columns over into the
page thus escaping mental cruci6x-
ion; confine their reading to that
large percentage of the journal that
is given up to the detailing of hap
penings etc, as circumstances direct.
The desire doesn't burn in the
breast of this newspaperman to
torture any unwilling victim with
his ideas, yet in order to accommo-
date a major number who by ex-
preston given do wish to examine
our opinions, we in this reserva-
tion spread off the Feelings of our
brain-pan. So without any just
grounds for censure, our personal
ly car. here have play mentally.
Never yet though, has the writer
reached the point of Jim Varda-
man, the great stellar star, and
Forrest Thigpen the lessar light; of
discarding the editorial 1--WE" and
adopting the precise personal pro-
noun "P', written with a big Cap

without it. Then there is more
than one of US anyhow. There is
our ordinary self, and the exem-
plar developing self. The first ev-
eryone catches our meaning, of the
second the one we are and ought
to be striving to and approaching,
in unison with our preachments.
The commonplace editor and the
unfolding, idealic editor, both
wrapt up in one mentality. Who
is it that can pour out the
very highest soaring thoughts of
his soul in all sincerity, in print;
without feeling from the moment
the birth-pangs of the brain-child
a-borning first come on, until its
delivery, and long if not ever af-
forwards, chickering's of an ear
nest endeavor to retain and make
his life show it; the elevating
qualities impaired to the off
spring. The same principle keeps
many man from praying in pub
lie: he is unwilling to make his
life conform to the only prayer
he feels like in good conscience he
could offer up to his God in the
hearing of his fellow-pew-men
