Our NetU Governor.

Our esteemed namesake and blood
relation, the Hattiesburg Daily News,
hands the following to Luther Man.
ship:
"Big-hearted Luther Manship is to
be governor for three or four weeks
while Governor Noel is out of the
state. He'll have hard time re-
straining his inclination to pardon a
few hundred convicts, perhaps, but
the Daily News will wager years
subscription that he does his whole
duty as he sees it. Mississippians are
mighty fond of Mr.. Manship, and
there are some of us who would like
to see him governor all of the time"
| When our Luther takes the reins
you can bet your last simoleon that
he will be governor twenty-four hours
in the day and sixty minutes every
hour. Incidentally, there are some of
his friends, the Daily News among
the number, who believe that he made
political mistake by not running for
governor last summer, instead of as
piring to second place on the ticket

The organization of $4,000 real
estate company in Hattiesburg yes
terday is one of the most notable
achievements of the past several
months, for the reason that real
estate is the basis of wealth in this
country, and this step on the part of
local business men of unquestioned
Judgment and admitted financial in
tegrity betokens rising confidence in
the future of this splendid city and
the rich and resourceful territory tri-
butary to the place.
And this confidence is further en-
phasized by the fact that one real
estate agency alone made actual cash
sales aggregating more than $4,000
for the week.
Other agencies report sales almost
as large, and the transfers for the
week, published from day to day in
the columns of the Daily News have
shown healthy upward tendency,
highly gratifying to every loyal citi-
zen of the city.
A feature of the real estate bust
ness worthy of note is the fact that
the real estate dealers have them
selves been heavy buyers.
And this emphasizes what the Daily
News has said before: that now is
the time to buy Hattiesburg property.
The financial depression has Great
ed heavy demand for ready money,
and many owners of desirable real
estate who have the utmost faith in
the future of the city have been forced
to sell in order to raise cash to meet
maturing obligations. The purchasers
of property of this sort will reap a
handsome profit when the depression
is finally over and Hattiesburg has
started again on its ascension toward
the ultimate greatness which destiny
has fixed as it's sphere among the pro
gressive cities of the South.
The consensus of opinion seems tC
be that the backbone of the panic has
already been broken in this section
and that Hattiesburg real estate will
never be cheaper than now.

An adjourned meeting of the Hat

GORDON CREEK
CHANNEL SHOULD
BE CLEANED OUT

Now that Gordon creek has been
spanned by three substantial steel
bridges, it has been suggested. that
the channel of the creek ought to be
cleaned out.
1t would not cost much to do this
and the benefit would be great in
many respects. 1t would permit the
easy flow of water and would pre-
vent and do away with the standing
pools that some times form in the
creek. Above all it would prevent
the creek from filling up, which 1t will
eventually do If 1t is not cleaned out
and 1t might also be conducive to
the health of the city to have it
cleaned.
In many places sandbars have form
ed, and old logs. timbers. tin cans
and the like can be seen, In the chan.
mel. In fact it seems to have been
made a dumping place for a whole LOT
of things that should not be allowed
in the channel
Besides, II the channel is kept
clear. there win be no danger Of the
water reaching the new bridges, and
while the Bridges would not likely be
damaged. even If the water did reach
them. It might in such times, cause
