DISCUSSES The
UNWRITTEN.LAW
Daily News Special.

Daily News Special.
Jackson. Miss, August 22.-When
asked his opinion of the circumstances
under which the "unwritten law Is a
justification for shooting a man, ap-
propos Of the case of Capt. Hains, who
killed william e. Annis. the betrayer
of his wife. and then induced Mrs.
Hams to accuse her husband Of being
degenerate. Governor e. F. Noel
said:
self preservation is the first law
Of nature, and includes self, home and
its purity. The preservation Of the
sanctity of home is more important
than that Of life. What circumstances,
| If any, would justify man in Staying
the despoiler Of his home, is moral
question which everyone must settle
for himself. Life should not be taken
without giving opportunity Of explain
alton.
If clearly believed man was
convicted OF killing one who had gio
lated the sanctity Of his home, ] would
pardon him. though | believe It would
be as much the duty of the jury to con
vict as 1t would be OF the Governor
to pardon.
"He who invokes the unwritten law
should abide its consequences and moi
seek shelter behind plea Of insanity

COTTON gins
Will START

Jackson. Miss, August 22.-Within
the next few days cotton gins in all the
towns in the state will be in operation,
and the oil mills will start up few
days later. Almost every weekly pa
per in the state published in the cot
ton counties reports this week the re-
ceipt of the first bale. although few
towns had their first bales last week
While not enough cotton has been
marketed in any part Of the state to
have any visible effect upon trade con.
ditions. it is now a matter Of only a
few days until this effect win be Wis
ible, although 1t is not expected that
any great amount Of cotton money
will be in general circulation for per
haps month.
Most of the farmers are in debt
to the merchants. and sell their cotton
to these same merchants, who general
ly insist upon applying the proceeds
or generous proportion of it, to these
debts. The result is that most of the
| first cotton money goes to the cred
| itors of the merchant. generally in the
northern cities, and the trade benefits
are accordingly delayed in the home
community.

JASPER COUNTY
PAPER OPPOSES
THE INSTITUTES
Daily News Special.


jackson, Miss, August 22.-One
newspaper in the state has been found
to openly oppose the establishing of
an agricultural high school and the
levying Of a special tax therefor.
The JASPER County Review, pub
lished at Montrose, argues that the
plan means the taxing of the many
for the benefit of the few, and that
only those who live near by will send
their children to such school.
The argument is made that every
farmer who is able to pay the board
Of his children would be also able to
pay the small tuition, so that there is
no need for such a free institution. 1t
does not, apparently take into consid-
Grafton the obvious fact that if no
school is established he. would not
have the opportunity to pay either. no
matter how able he might be.
The press of the state. as well as
every leading educator, have quite gen.
orally embraced this agricultural high
school idea as being just the thing
needed, not only for those boys living
in each county who are unable to at
tend the Starkville Agricultural and
Mechanical College. but also for the
beginner, who can thereby get a good
start in his studies before going to
starkville-a sort of stepping stone
to the college In other words.
Notwithstanding the opposition OF
the Review, it is understood the school
board and county board of supervis
ors have practically determined to es
tablish the school. although there is
some talk of submitting the question
| to the people to be voted upon.
