Railroad men all over the country
are congratulating Hattiesburg, through
the Commercial Club, in the stand
that this city took in opposition to
anti-railroad legislation at the present
term of the state legislature. They
know that Hattiesburg led of in the
movement opposing two-cent passen-
ger rate and they feel that the move
ment that started in this city had a
great deal to do with the defeat of
the anti-railroad measures that were
introduced in the legislature.

law-some power to punish such
criminal dereliction. Will the siren

duty when he comes to act upon this
matter? Will he forget his obligations

cotton as long as he wishes. 1t is his
business.
If he has had these to buy on credit
as is usually the case, his cotton Is
not his. What thou owest is not thine
own, but another's." The safest and
best course under such circumstances
is to sell his cotton and pay his debts
and "pick the flint and try again."
An old darby who was in straights
on the meat-an-bread question was re-
turning from town with good-sized
piece of bacon on his shoulder. His
shirt was very ragged. his back was
bare. A neighbor met him and said
Uncle Jim, what made you buy such
a big piece of meat? Why didn't you
divide your money and buy you a
shirt?" Old Uncle Jim reached his
hand back to his naked shoulder and
said, BOSS, dis old fellow will credit
me- then moving his hand to his
stomach and placing 1t there, he said,
but dis here fellow wants de cash."
There it is. The man who has to
buy what he eats cannot control the
prices of what he sells, much less the
prices of what he must buy, or starve.
Some years ago, it is said that an old
farmer who bought his supplies on a
credit, was on his way home with a.
few groceries which he had bought at
credit prices. 1t was in the spring of
the year. AS he drove home he sat in
the wagon and sang, Saviour, visit
thy plantation grant us, Lord, gra-
cious rain" At the close of the year,
after he had sold his last bale of cot
ton, with no corn in the crib, no
meat in the smoke-house, and still in
debt, he sang:
"Show pity, Lord, oh Lord forgive,
Let repenting rebel live"
In my next will give remedy for
the above condition. Sensible men
have tried it and it has never failed.

THIS AND THAT

Umpire Egan has nobody but himself to
blame for making a farce out of the
game. When here previously the young
man gave evidence of being a good UNI
pire. but yesterdays slovenly work nulli-
fed all his other efforts. He has a habit
of calling off a play before it is COM
pleted and on five different occasions yes
terday he waved the player out before
the ball had reached the hands of the
man who was making the out This habit
made him lose the play on Pickering in
the seventh inning when Schaeffer dropped
the ball. Egan called Pickering out as he
was sliding into the bag and at the same
instant he turned away his head. thereby
losing sight of the ball, which went
through Schaeffer's hands and rolled a
couple Of yards away. Dutch was foxy
enough to remain on the ground long
enough to allow O'Leary to run over and
pick up the ball and throw it to Coughlin.
Had Egan waited until the player and
ball had arrived at the second corner he
would have seen the misplay and the
right decision might have changed the
complexion of the game.
On the decision at the plate in the third
inning on which Charley Street was ban
ished to the clubhouse there is hardly an
excuse to offer for Egan. as Cobb's Of
tense was so fragrant. Egan must have
been in line with Ganley's catch and seen
tldC CODD ndQ taken Iully TWO steps De-
fore the ball struck the left fielder's
hands. Street was so sure that Egan had
witnessed Cobbs offense that he didn't
try to touch the runner. but threw to the
sack and then claimed the out. When
Egan declared Cobb safe Street lost his
head and said few things and as re-
suit was banished to the clubhouse.
When Coughlin fumbled Pickering s
hard drive in the second and then threw
to Rossman Pick" beat the throw by
fully a yard or more but Egan waved
the runner away before the ball was in
the first baseman's hands.
Mr.. Egan has evidently been reading
the papers, and from the color Of his work
decided to get back at some one. Presi-
dent johnson is travelling around the cir
cult watching the different games in the
east. and Mr.. Egan can thank his lucky
stars that the big smoke was not in the
grandstand. or his life as an umpire would
have been extingushed after yesterday
