the bar-room licenses exceed one for
each one thousand of the population
of the city. This project, it is pointed
out, would decrease the number of
bars from slightly more than five hun
dred to fewer than three hundred and
fifty; while the revenues to the munic-
ipality would actually increase, and the
lessened array of drinking places
would render their supervision more
feasible, besides making license too
valuable as property to be lightly for
feited by misconduct
According to the Bulletin:
This would seem to be, in its essen
tial principles, rational method of
handling the problem.
The attention of the Bulletin is re-
spectfully called to the fact that this
scheme, Sin its essential principles" diff
fers very little from the plan in force in
the city of Philadelphia where the prob
lem isn't "handled' at all but where the
saloon Handles" almost everything.

New York Commercial, after devoting

The question of Prohibition is al

1t has been given a moral or a relig

If the liquor interests expect to fight
Prohibition and expect to have decent
citizens help them in their fight
they will have to prove that they are
opposed to the low saloon and the dirty

pions, apologists, and hackers; they will
have to reform their present arrogant
methods and keep the liquor whip out
of our city and county elections and off

LOCAL OPTION TO
SAVE TRAFFIC

Those friends who persist in looking
upon local option as a stepping stone
to Prohibition" and who are sometimes
inclined to lose patience with the mid
f-the-road Prohibitionists who fail
to see in the local option theory all the
good that its friends believe to exist
there, may read with great profit the
views expressed by the Seattle Times
in recent EDITORIAL The Times, it
must be understood, opposes Prohibi-
ton and is in the midst of rather
peculiar situation in the state of Wash
ington. The Republicans, at the re-
cent state convention, declared for local
option. The Democrats declared for
state Prohibition. The Anti Saloon
League, true to its instincts, stands with
the Republicans on the local option
platform. The Times, which is credited
as an Independent Democratic" paper
practically bids for the support of the
liquor interests for the Republican
party and gives an exposition of the
character Of local option. The editorial
begins with the statement that the
editor of the Times has always been
supporter of high-license and that he
took part in the agitation in Minnesota
which placed that state under a high
license, local option law. 1t continues
The only fanatics left as powerful
integers in the movement, as it ex-
lists today, are the liquor interests,
and these men-supposed to be alive
to every trick of their trade-are
making the mistake of their lives in
opposing local option, because local

present movement for local option,

This, the Tooth anniversary of the
birth OF Jefferson Davis, is being gen.
orally observed throughout the state
and the South.
The only President of the Confeder-
acy was not Mississippian, having
been morn in Kentucky. He came to
Mississippi, however, when only a
wear old. 1t was here that he grew
to manhood and developed into stall
wart champion of the South's cause
and Mississippians were ever proud to
claim, him as an exemplary fellowciti-
zen, deserving of any honor within the
gift of man.
Many u the older residents of Hat
tiezburg knew him well, and those
who knew him best loved him most.
The WARMTH it's differences and
dissensions, its bitterness and strife;
its tears and blood-is long since
over. Good men on both sides of the
controversy have tried to forget its
horrors and forgive it's wrongs. But
they like to remember the-bravery, the
devotion and self-sacrifice of those who
rose to heights not before attained in
the history of the world
In this connection, the News is glad
that the country at large, regardless OF
mast prejudices and pernicious teach
ines. has come to look upon Jefferson
Davis as one of the worlds Creates
men. and that the press and people o.
the North will today pay to his mem
orv the same kindly tokens that W.
would accord to Lincoln or Grant.
Hattiesburg is a new city, havini
gathered IT'S splendid citizenship from
almost every section of the Unitet
states. Many of them wore the blu
in days that tried mems souls, an
they believe as much as we believ
that their cause was just.
We are glad that some of them ar
with us today to pay tribute to tn
memory of one of the country's grea
est men-to observe with us the 10Ot
anniversary of the birth of Jefferso

the party stood good chance to win.
He said that it was a settled fact,
about which there could be no doubt,
that VIM. J. Bryan would be the DEM

would be the Republican nominee, but
said that if Taft failed to secure the
nomination on the first ballot there
was possibility of stampede to

Mr.. Bowers stated that he would
make political speech during the
campaign in Hattiesburg and that he
would arrange his dates in about a

st. Louis organization known as the
National Prosperity Association
recently started a faith cure
movement for the return of normal
business conditions, and the motto
of the organization was similar to
Greeley's admonition, that THE way
to resume is to resume"
Some people laughed at the idea,
but those who argue that mind has no
control over matter, and that the
faith cure" has no place in business,
must revise their calculations.
That the way to resume is to re-
sumo" is amply evidenced by the fact
that at least ten thousand idle men
were put to work this week in the city
of st. Louis alone-and by the men
who started the National Prosperity
Association. The day was set apart
as the day of resumption of prosperity
throughout the country, and its effects
were not confined to the city of St.
Louis alone, but thousands of the
unemployed were made happy in
other cities of the country.
The doubters may continue to doubt,
but these men who owe their employ
ment to the faith cure have been
Shown
The good book does not err when it
says that faith can move mountains.
The country has been sick. When a
man is sick, he can hasten his recov-
cry by being cheerful and hopeful. So
can the country.
No matter what caused the recent
financial depression, suffice it to say
that it came. Every section of. the
country felt its baneful influence, and
the territory adjacent to Hattiesburg
was sorely afflicted for time. But
for the calm judgment, the business
accumen and the sublime faith of a
few of our citizens the result might
have been disastrous.
The faith cure saved Hattiesburg
just as it saved the country. And the
s'faithcure" must go a long ways to-
ward the rehabilitation of the business
structure.
Some of our industries have already

The general revival is near-and the

He expressed his thanks to one and |
all. He said that such occasions as
this were rare in army life; that they |
had to lay aside all ideas of social
pleasure and find pleasure in the
work that was to be done. He said
that none of them took any stock
in politics except to watch the doings
in governmental affairs. He thought
the congress was a representative
body of American citizens and was in
terested in the welfare of the people
of all sections. He complimented Hat
tiesburg in the strongest possible
terms. He said he had found that he
could make purchases of supplies
cheaper here than he could in New
Orleans. He thought the business men
so afraid that they would be thought
to be charging too much that they
actually sold below cost. He ex-
pressed his deep gratitude for the kind
remembrance and he was visibly al
fected by the true friendship shown.
He said he and his fellow officers
were only representatives of the gov
ernment--had dispensed the govern
ment's aid as best they could and he
feared in this that the individual could
not be disassociated from the govern
ment He thought, in other words,
that credit was due the government
rather than those who had been car

grateful for the kind remembrance,
