If there is anything in signs the
republicans are badly frightened.
To them the attitude of labor is
evidently far from reassuring.
Then the great silent, independent
vote, which may turn the scales
one way or the other, is difficult
to place this year. Ohio, Indiana
and even New York are considered
debatable ground. With a united
democracy. a great and good man
as its leader, standing on a most
excellent platform, if the party
does not win this time, it may be
said indeed that the American peo-
pie have been bound hand and foot
and sold to the money devil.

/. In addition TO all these objections
on the liqour score Mr.. Taft as a
Unitarian denies the divinity of
our Lord Jesus Christ, thus adding
infidelity to sin by rejecting the
claims of Christ and His followers
to the Christ's place in the God
head. Unless we are ready to burn
our Bibles, to cruelty Jesus afresh
and put Him to an open shame we
should not line up with brewers
and saloon-keepers in putting this

and other sins.

How soon the children leave us.
1t seems but a step between child
hood and manhood How soon they
take this step and how often the
eternal step from life to death.
We little realize what the future
of our little ones may be. Heaven
kindly hides the book of fate. One
word today idly spoken, may, on
the morrow, stand like clonds of
fire, staring us in the face. One
kind act which might have glad
dened the little he ,rt. is left un-
done. Tomorrow it may come back
to our memory and causes many
heartaches. If we knew that the
little ones who are today annoy
ing Us in their childish fashion,
would tomorrow lay still in death,
how different would be our actions
toward them. Let US be more pa
tient, we know not what tomor-
row has in store for US.
My young lady reader, if you
are looking for your prince, just
test his home conduct before you
accept him. Don't be guided in
your choice by what a young man
is in your parlor; find out what
he is in his mothers sitting-room.
Don't Judge him by how he can
dance, or turn compliment, or tip
his hat, or carry your small bundle
find out how agile he is to do a
service for his old maid aunt, or
how he speaks to the women-folks
when his collars are not Numbered
to suit him. If he stands the test
catch him quick, for he is a rara-
avis. Together you may establish
kingdom second to none but the
kingdom of Heaven-a happy home
For the home where mutual con-
sideration rules, is bound to be a
happy one, although it be the top
fiat in a tenement, or an adobe
hut on the praries.
The question which seems to con-
Germ the country particularly is how
to obtain the most luxuries with
the least work. Some of the five
hours-a-day fellows have fifteen
hours-a-day wives, which help out
good deal in family; and some
times a ten-hour-a-day man finds
himself in possession of no-hour
-a-day wife, which assures dough
cakes" for the family. Time was
if a man and his wife and chlirden
all pegged away at some useful in
dustry, according to the early set
tiers, they would rise in Importance
as surely as cream rises on the top
of pan of milk. Nor is the good
old plan of industry and economy
yet entirely untrustworthy, though
growing more so as the years roll
by. Large house, fine furniture,
elegant dress and equlpage with no
business or visible means to back it
all up are every day sights. One is
often tempted to think there is not
much difference between those who
work and those who play, but that
the balance is in favor of those who
play. This is natural conclusion
from p superficial standpoint.

The first element of common sense
and simple politeness is to learn to
differ with our friend on matters
of public concern without denoun-
cling him as a vicious scoundrel.
Men differ in their opinions, and
differ honestly, and its good thing
that all don't see alike. If every
man in the country could see and
think just exactly alike every man
would beawanting to buy the same
horse, go the same way, marry the
same woman, live on the same hill
side and chew the same rag. If
this sort of condition prevailed life
would be the conflict a teller ever
got into. Give us light and liberty
and let us think and act and be

The belief prevails that the senti-
ment in favor of a reformatory for
juvenile criminals in Mississippi
is growing so fast that by the
time the next session of the
Legislature opens there will be a
chance for the movement to culmi-
nate in successful legislation in
that behalf.
Here in Hattiebsurg there has
never been any doubt of the desi-
rability of such an institution, but
elsewhere in the State, especially
in the rural districts, where ju-
veniles do not have the same tenn
ptations and opportunities for the
display of their depravity, there
has been need for some striking
illustrations in order to jolt the
representatives with a sense of
the requirements of the case. Such
striking illustrations have been
given in recent times.

Boosting Troy.

What are you going to do to boost
Troy during the coming year2 This
question ought to be Of interest to
every citizen OF our town and
to every resident of the country
tributary to Troy. The one thing
most needed is better roads lead
ing into town. And having the roads
the town then wants increased popula-
tion to travel these roads. We want
more people to come to Troy to trade.
The good roads will help. But it takes
more. People trade where they can
do best. This means not only in the
purchase of what they buy, but what
they sell, as well. 1t is then up to
our merchants to make prices inviting.
This policy in the past has brought
thousands of dollars to Troy. The
towns reputation as a good trading
point has been earned by our mer-
chants making close prices and then
backing them up with the best quality
Of merchandise. 1t has won. This
policy must be continued. And, from
what we have been told, our merchants
propose to do better in the future.
Having done all this, the next thing
is to let the public know about it.
And here is where the local paper
comes in. Here is where there must
be unity of action. The News has
never overlooked an opportunity to do
its part during the three years the pres
ent editor has run it, and the only
thing that will keep US from continuing
this policy will be the fact that we
can't. We will boost just as long a;
we are given sufficient patronage to en-
able US to keep going. This is up tc
the business interests of Troy. 1t is Z
question for each business man to think
over and settle as he thinks best serve:
his pocket-book. 1t is a question o
dollars and cents. If, however, you de
eide that good, live paper, one tina
boosts as hard as the News has boosted
and can boost, is good thing for Tro,
and the surrounding country, thel
make it your business to see that
gets enough support to enable it to d.
business.

Cash vs.. Credit.

Olson & Johnson, hardware and fur
niture dealers in Troy, have inaugur-
ated a new system, and will hereafter
not sell, even to their personal friends,
without the cash is paid at time of sale.
There will be no exception. Cash is
the rule they will not break, and if you
don't want to be refused don't ask
credit. The reasons for this change,
as given by Mr.. Johnson, are:
First-Credit means more or less
bad accounts and this loss the mer-
chant must and does make up by
raising prices. He has to. 1t is the
inevitable result Of the credit system.
Second-The credit system has
compelled Olson & Johnson to carry
at all times from $4,000 to $40, 900 of
accounts. They have had this much
merchandise trusted out, and the
prices charged have had to be high
enough to pay interest on this amount.
And the cash customer has to pay for
all this, because the man who buys on
time and pays occasionally will get
very much offended if he is charged
more than the customer who pays spot
cash. So the merchant, as we'll as
the public suffers under a system that
keeps prices up, and drives some cash
customers to the Chicago catalogue
houses.
'Third-On a strictly cash basis
prices can be reduced from ten to 25
per cent. We have adopted the new
system and made the cut. AS an illus
tration take nails: We have reduced
this staple 20 per cent. and retail
them at cents per pound, or 1915
per keg. Furniture and carpets are
reduced IS per cent. and wall paper
20 per cent. Some lines cut even 25
per cent. Stoves, standard makes, are
reduced IS per cent. For example:
A Monarch steel rahge, No. 424, that
retail in Spokane at 800. We have
been selling these at SIS. The new
piice is $46.75.
These are but samples of the re-
duction in every line, but enough tc
illustrate what we mean when we say
that we have reduced prices from 1C
to 25 per cent. But remember thai
the reduction in price is based on &
strictly cash basis. We will keep nc
books, giving the customer the benefi
of this expense, and every night wher
we close our doors we will have eithe
the cash in the till or the goods on ou
shelves. But it will mean saving o
thousands OF dollars annually to the
people of this section"

Troy Is Best Town.

Uuj snsiDess in Troy than in any other

wv .U"D True because Troy is the only
.o~r uuu, that does not depend entirely on
.Orr srcuItural products for its support.
w., ,he town has tributary the richest
'oiI Ill and the best improved farms in the
~, so-tbwest. Not only is the soil rich
but i,u the climate is milder by many de-
w. O-ses than in any other section OF the
1DIsnd Empire. Evidence OF this is
found in the character of the products
rsi,ed. In addition to agricultural pro-
ducts , Of the Pacific Coast, such as
Grains and fruits, the country tributary
to Troy, because Of a milder and more
eoitable climate, with little or no frost,
has for fifteen years produced success
hUv large crops Of corn and beans
Also tomatoes, tobacco and other tend
er crops not suitable to other sections
where frosts interfere.
Besides the farms Troy has ar
abundance Of timber on the north, ano
each year there is marketed from tni'
4 pont thousands Of ties, cord-wood ane
lumber. Our woods give steady EN-
plOyment to hundreds of men, anc
