For Lease.

Some experienced electric line
man now has the opportunity to
lease Yazoo City's new line and
operate it for a term of ten years.
This was decided at the meeting of
the city council Monday night when
a resolution was adopted to that
effect. The city clerk was instruc-
ted to advertise for proposals<to op-
crate the line for a term of ten
years, and the lease will be given
to the best bidder. The lessee
must assume all liability for acci-
dents or damages that may arise in
the operation of the line and pay
all expenses of operation, including
the power to operate the cars, and
will be required to give bond for
the faithful performance of the con-
tract. Yazoo Sentinel.

Let Us See How This Works.

1t is urged that convicts must not
be kept idle, that they must earn
their living, that the people should
not be taxed to feed and clothe an
army of criminals, and so forth, and
SO forth.
Let us see how this works. The
state arrests a young man, who,
let US say, in a drunken quarrel,
has stabbed companion. He is
hurried away to prison. He is
brought into court, tried and con-
victed. He is sent to prison for
five or ten years, or for life. All
the while young wife and half
dozen little children are left without
their natural protector and support.
They huddle in the court room.
They hear the lawyers yaWp.
They listen to the verdict. The
case is closed. The young father
lis bundled off in one direction ia
chains. The young family is
turned off another in tears. The
state takes the time, the earnings
of the one to itself, leaving the
other to starve, the mother dies of
despair. The boys grow up
thieves. The girls grow up IN
trained. The law is vindicated.
The taxpayer is protected. The
criminal classes are repleniShed. Is
Fit not damnable2 Does not the
society which tolerates such mons
|trosities deserve all the evils. it en-
tails cpon ITSELF The state has no
right to take that mans labor from
his wife and children and give them
no equivalent. II Should punish
tie guilty not the innocent. Every
dollar that is diverted Iii this way
from the natural needs Of the help
less to the uses Of the public, is
base blood money that should and
does carry with it the curse of

Life Term VIII Not Suffice.

Someone is reported to have said
in jackson last week that if the
court would promise a life term in
stead of halter for the murder of
Chas. Fitzgerald that he would be
delivered in twenty-four hours to
the proper authorities. Of course
the court will make no such foolish
compromise with a foul and unpro-
voked murder Of man. If any
such statement was ever made the
man making it should be taken into
custody and forced to deliver Sorsby
Internationally. It's likely however
that the statement was made if
made at all, for the purpose of elud-
ing and misleading the officers who
are making the search. What the
south needs is a few legal hangings.
Life terms will not suffice. - South

A Missing Link In The Prosperity
Chain.

Now that Taft is elected and the
country safe, will the Louisville &
Nashville railroad place water in its
coaches for the accommodation of
passengers? Thus asks a resident
of Biloxi who just returned from a
trip up the line of the L. & N. and
who was obliged with all his fellow
passengers to forego the pleasure of
washing face and hands because
the railroad provided no water for
that purpose. He is not the only
person who has ridden the l.. & N.
and been Inconvenience because
the L. & N. is too negligent or too
unaccommodating to place water in
its lavatories. Biloxi Herald.

A Cotton Stalk Cutter.

Several of our wide-aWake far
mers who are making arrangements
to fight the boil weevil, have pur-
chased cotton stalk cutters. Mr..
j. @. Tilton bought one of these
machines several weeks ago and
has found it very satisfactory. He
IS now engagedin cutting and burn
ing his cotton stalks, which he finds
very easy with the assistance of
the cutter. The machine cuts two
rows at a time and throws the stalks
to the center after being cut, then
they are very easy to G ather and
burn. DR.. G. E. Cathings and
Messrs. j. NJ. and j. K. Sessions
have also purchased one each of
these machines and we understand
that other farmers will follow suit.

MEMORIAL DAY.

Each recurring May is a reminder of
the dark days of the sixties. The living
today, who We're on the stage of action
forty-five years ago, can we'll recall those
stirring momentous times that thrilled the
American people. both the north and the
south. The music Of fife and drum rever-
berated from every GALLEY and hillside in
our land. 1t was then our homes were
tested to the utmost, sending forth hus-
bands, fathers and sons, and leaving
wives and daughters to care for farm and
shop while they should be Drawing the
storms of battle. Those heart-rending
times when grief ran so deep no utterance
could be given, 9ndearing embraces with
out word, partings with signal onlv
of farewell. Truly those were stirring
times that seemed then that memory must
ever dwell on the sad and hallowed scenes.
But with the fast fleeing wears how we
have outgrow them all, and It's well. for
lie would be united forthe duties that
eyer await it. With most, TODAY the
Civh war IS hardly memory. A few
whose WOUNDS were keenest NAV vet have
lne lndslIble impression, and often recall
tne trying days Of the 90 S, but the larger
remnant so seldom revert to them they are
quite forgotten. But may we never SO far
forget that as each bright Nav Of coming

: All Things WIFI Pass Away.

When the lust for money takes
control of a people, it is very apt to
create an Indifference for the other
things of life. 1t is undoubtedly
true that church. going has fallen
off noticeably. The closed cam
paign was comparatively a very
mild affair. The divorce court
records show that the family in
stitution has become in an alarm
ing number of cases, a thing inci-
dental.
On the other hand, there does
seem to have risen a wave of in
terest all over the country in a
movement to make people live
healthier and longer-rather is if
it were better to make the most of
a sure thing. The movement Is a
laudable one, but it can go too far.
The other day we heard a man
expressing his opinions. He had
just dined well for one thing, and
he was enjoying a good ten-cent
cigar. He had youth, and his chin
was full with health. 1t was his
opinion that the earth was very
fair place after all that men in it
got what they deserved and that
most sickness was imaginary.
This narrow view of man who
had just dined well, is pervading
more or less class of people with
whom the world has been kind,
But
| Tomorrow our SNUG friend may
be mutilated by a train. His APP
parently stable income may
dwindle, and he might drop In on

you suppose his philosophy would
have changed.
Good health let US have, fine
spirits may we nourish: but we
have but to look around US to
know that the Creator never in
tended the things of this lire to be
sufficient unto themselves. 1t is

but it is of a poor sort for the Grip
|ple, the widow, and that large
portion Of humanity who were
either given a bad deal to begin
with, or else through no fault Of
their own, played their cards poor
lIv.
Let US not boast too much Of
