DaUe Hollis Philosophy.

David Holt, former editor Of the BIZ
loxi Herald, is now doing the Bye
the Bye column of the Mobile Herald
and this is one OF his latest creations:
knock, and the world knocks with
you; boost and you boost alone;
when you roast good and loud. you
will find that the crowd has a ham,
mer as big as your own.
Buy and the gang is with you, re-
mig and the game is off; for the lad,
with the thirst will see you curst. if
you don't proceed to cough. Be rich
and the gang will praise you, be poor
and they will pass you the ice; you're
warm young guy when you start to
buy, you're a snob when you haven't
the price. Be flush and your friends
are many, go broke and they say "ta,
ta," when your bank account burns
you will get great returns when it's
out you will get the ha, ha. Be gay
and the mob will cheer you; they will
shout while your wealth endures;
show a fearful lamp and you'll see
them all tramp, and it's back to the
woods for yours. There's always a
bunch to boost you, while at your
money they glance; but you'll find
them all gone at the cold gray dawn,
when the fringe shows up on your
pants"

Lumber Conditions.

Today the News again devotes sew
eral columns of space to reports from
the lumber mills of the Hattiesburg
district, and it is needless to say
that they will be read with interest,
not only by the mill men themselves
but by the merchants and business
men of Hattiesburg and other towns
and cities throughout South Missis-
sippi
In this connection, we want to again
emphasize the fact that these reports
are authentic-that most of them come
direct from the mill men themselves,
and that there is not a line of guess
work in the entire report, represent
ing as it does more than half a hun
bred individual industries.
The News has been generously cor
graduated for its effort to promote the
interests of the district by publishing
in its columns accurate information
concerning the conditions now PR.
vailing. and it is the purpose OF the
paper to continue these reports 50
long as they can be obtained and tho
interest of the public will warrant.
Direct requests for information have
been made to all of the mills OF Soul
Mississippi, and postage for reply has
Invariably been enclosed. Some Of the
mill men have not responded, but il is
hoped that they will do so during the
weeA that a fuller and more complete
compilation may be made for next
Mondays paper.
The News desires to promote in
every possible manner the interests of
Hattiesburg and the territory tribu-
tary to the city, and realizes the fact
that our present and future prosperity
is largely dependant upon the lumber
industry

The Mysterious Letter.

The mystery deepens about that
Cleveland letter. Mr.. Hastings, the
executor Of Mr.. Cleveland, refuses to
say why he called the letter spurious.
He says he has had a talk with Mr..
Jerome and that Mr.. Jerome approves
his silence.
The New York Times seems to be
doubtful as to whether the letter is a
forgery. 1t called on Mr.. Kern for
his evidence when he called it a for
gerry.
That makes the whole matter
doubtful. If it was forgery why not
say so. fatty and let the matter drop?
The reticence, the secrecy and the
mysterious utterance, seem intended
to leave it in doubt until after the cleo
ton in the hope that it may give some
Democratic votes to Mr.. Taft.
At any rate the letter is like Mr..
Clevelands style. The men who
should know about it decline to make
any statement, and the thing stands.
