~ n. BLAKESLEE jackson n..

The writer is in receipt Of the fol-
lowing thoroughly sensible letter from
H. j. Chatham of Neshoba county.
The advice contained in this communi-
cation is worthy Of space and consid-
Grafton, and it is to be hoped that
others will follow the example of Bro.
Chatham and not keep their light un-
der bushel as it were. Tell OF the
good work of the Union and thereby
encourage those who may be getting
lukewarm in the work.
AS [ have been reading your ar
ticles in the Neshoba Democrat on
Greater Mississippi" for a number
of years and being much interested
therein, take the liberty Of saying
something concerning the work of the
Union In this county. | am chairman
of the executive committee In Nesho-
ba county for the Union. | want the
brethren over the state to know that
the Union is on the move in this sec
ton. We have just closed a very in
teresting and important meeting of
our county Union, held on the 10th
and 18th inst, with Ocabla Local.
Twenty-Five locals with a membership
of $50 were represented by delegates.
We have a good warehouse at Melon
aid on the NJ j. & X. C. Railroad and
expect to have one at Philadelphia by
the time cotton begins to move next
fall.
AS chairman of the committee on
I" For Good of the Order" as well as
Resolutions" | submitted the fol-
lowing recommendations which were
adopted by the, County Union: "That
We abandon the credit system as soon
as practicable by making our farms
self sustaining, reducing the acreage
In cotton diversifying our crops by
planting more corn, cow peas, pota-
toes, hay and forage crops. We also
recommend that in buying our sup
plies we make the payments, espec-
tally for fertilizers, one-third in No
vember, one-third in January and one
third in March. This was done to
prevent forcing too much cotton on
the November Market
'"The county Union elected officers
for the ensuing year and lecturer
to organize every hillside in Neshoba
county. We are considering the fer
tilizer question and trying to make
arrangements to buy direct from the
manufacturer. [ am doing all that |
can to push our cause and any infor-
nation or help that you can render
will be thankfully received
If ten men in each county had the
enthusiasm evidenced in the above let
ter, President Hightower would have
to make no more calls to bring the
membership up to 100000 by the first
of next January. What we need is
good, active men who will take an in
terest in the work outlined and keep
it up until that object has been ac-
complished.

Of Acting Public Printer Rossiter, the

Departs Secretly.

Though the Cunard officials were
quite confident taht Morse had not
sailed in the Campania, as his attor-
ney believe, it was pointed out by
friends that the effect upon the
health of Morse of seeing his once
great fortune melt away was such as
TO make it probable that he had Sc
cured passage through other in order
to avoid the interruptions to his need
I'd rest, certain to sollow should his
presence on shipboard be generally
known.
That Morse absolutely required the
seclusion and Probabilities for recu-
peration physically afforded by AN
OCEAN voyage, was generally admitted
among those who have known Of the
tremendous undertaking he has ear
ried through and the mental stress in
cident to his financial losses.
Disclosures of the trouble of Morse
followed each other in rapid success
sion. One Of these was to the effect
that the creditors banks might unite
in making him an involuntary bank
rupt, thereby absorbing the remnants
of his fortuna.
Deputy sheriffs were kept busy
serving copies of the attachment In
the suit brought by Charles A. Hanna,
receiver for the National Bank oe
North America, in New York, against
Morse to recover $243,321. Copies
Of the attachment have been served
on officers Of the fourteen banks in
which Morse waa supposed to have ac-
counts. A deputy sheriff has seized
6403 shares of stock of the Furnace
Valley Copper Company, said to be
owned by Morse. Another levied on
stock in the Kingstand Copper Com
pany, said to have been owned by
Morse. A deputy sheriff also has
served copy Of the attachment OH

TRAVELLING.
WILL RETURN In TEN DAYS
United States District Attorney Slim
SON of New York Pleased to Hear
That Eminent Financial Juggler
Will Voluntarily Come Back.

Queens town.-Cahrles w. Morse
was interviewed by an Associated
Press representative here. Without a
moment IS hesitation Mr.. Morse
granted an interview to teh CORES
pendent. He was shown extracts from
London papers referring to him as
having fled from his creditors, etc.,
Mr.. Morse said there was absolutely
nothing in the reports, saying they
were "New York sensationals. He
added that he had sent cable dispatch
es to New York concerning his posi-
ton, and that he would rectify mat
ters when he returned there. He was
travelling partly on business and part
ly for pleasure for week or ten days.
Asked where he purposed going af-
ter he landed at Liverpool, Mr.. Mores
begged to be excused from replying.
You can,' he said, "say with GER
tainty that my stay will not exceed
ten days on this side and that l will
then return to New York"
Mr.. Morse proceeded from Queens
town to Liverpool on board the Cam
pania. He is travelling under an as
sumed name, probably C. H. Moore.
Many People Want Him.
Asked why U. S. District Attorney
Stimson had requested him to ask
Morse to return, Attorney Board
man said:
81 do not know, but 1 suppose it
is because a good many people here
want him. ~
Concerning the summoning before
the Federal grand jury of Boardman
and former Justice Morgan J. o.
Brien, the latter also member OF
the law firm of O'Brien, Boardman
and Platt, the Federal officers said:
81 have nothing whatever to say,
and the public is at liberty to draw
any conclusion it may see fit concern
ing the appearance of Lawyers Board
man and O'Brien before the Federal
grand jury. | can not discuss the mat
ter, neither will admit or deny any
Of the rumors current."
The rumors referred to by Stimson
were to the effect that the present
Federal grand jury was likely to re-
turn indictments in the banking case
soon.
Several weeks ago Stimson adj
mitted taht the Federal grand jury
since early in December had been in
vestigating Che banking situation, but
as to the likelihood of indictments he
declined to talk.

Tariff Commission.


report to the senate had raised an is
sue of fact as to whether national
banks IN New York used the $75, 000,-
900 or public money deposited with
them for speculative purposes, or
whether this money was used to meet
the demands of outside banks for re
serve purposes.
Mr.. Culberson complained that the
committee on finance had failed to
take any action on his resolution di-
recting that it inquire into the cause
Of the recent financial stringency. lie
declared that the report of the secre
tary of the treasury had shown that
that official had violated the law in
Issuing the Panama bonds, because
money for the canal was not needed;
and that he had violated the law in
awarding these bonds to national
banks, instead of the individuals and
in using the proceeds of the sale for
the purposes set forth in the report
and not for the construction of the
canal.
In issuing teh three per cent. GER
tificates, the secretary also violated
the law, Mr.. Culberson said, because
they were not used for the purpose
provided by the statutes as there was
ample funds for such purposes. More
over, he said, the secretary had vio-
lated the law in issuing the three per
cents. as the law limits the basis of
such notes to registered bonds Of the
United States and the Panama bonds.
He had also failed to distribute this
money as provided under the act of
March 4, 1907. His distribution was
inequitable, said Mr.. Culberson, as
the money was used by New York
banks for speculative purposes.
Figures Tell the Truth.
"The public money deposited in the
national banks Of the United States"
said Mr.. Culberson, ION March %,
1907, was $140,000,O00. On December
3, the amount reached the enormous
sum Of $225,000,000 In New York
City alone, on March %, the amount
ON deposit there was $14,000,000; on
August %, $29,OOO,O0O and on Deem
Der 3, $75,OO0,OO0.
"New York City with about one
sixth of the capital and surplus Of all
the banks, secured and surplus of all
the public money on deposit. The east
ern states including New York, hav-
ing only about three times the cap
ital and surplus of the southern
states were given four times as much
of the public money.
"The increase of government depos-
It's IN the eastern states, from August
to December, 1907, was $54,000,000
and the increase in deposits in south
ern states was $7,000,000
"The increase of government de-
posts in New York City alone from
August to December was 100000
or three fifths of the entire increase
Of $79,OOO,OO0.
"'The state of Texas with 100000
of people and banking capital and
surplus of $40,000,000, compared with
Washington, D. c., with a population
of 100000 and a bank capital and

Representative Frazier of Benton
county has prepared and introduced
measure that if it is made a law will
be worth great deal to the people Of
Mississippi, especially those living adj
jacent to the railroads. There are
few indeed who have not experienced
trouble and worry in collecting claims
for stock killed or injured by the
trains. Too often the claims drag
along for months and years without
settlement until the man whose stock
has been injured gives up the effort
and lets it 60 Mr.. Frazier has pre-
pared measure that provides for an
arbitration committee composed Of
three members, one to be selected by
the company, one by the owner of
the stock and the third by the two al
ready chosen, who are to say what
the animal was worta. IF the first two
fail to agree upon the third, the local
magistrate selects the man. After
appraising the value the company
must settle in a short time, sixty days
at the outside from the date on which
notice was first served upon the COM
pany or its agents. Should they fail
to do so heavy penalty is placed up
on them. Let as hope that this will
become law and be strictly enforced.
The prospect for a number Of new
county fairs to hold their initial
meetings this fall are good. Several
communities have taken up the pro-
ject and promise to push it to sue
cesful termination. As has been often
said in this department., no better in
vestment can be made by community
than in well conducted county fair.
They give a stimulus to agriculture
and stock raising that is worth many
times the small amount of money
needed to. place one on foot. 1t is
to be sincerely hoped that in few
years the county without fair will
be an exception instead of a rule.
