MISSISSIPPI BOY
CARRIES OFF H0N0RS
Out Of TWeny-sir Colleges Represented This
Boy is al Head Of List al Oxford, England

Of much qualification to the
leading educators of this state is
the cable dispatched from London
announcing that a young Mississ-
ippian, Edwin Ford, of Columbia,
carried off the highest honors in
the final examinations at Oxford.
This exceptional honor was won
by Mr.. Ford in a competition
with students representing the
twenty-six colleges composing
Oxford University. In a word,
he has shown his superior mental
attainments over fully five thou
sands students gathered in the
great British institutions of learn
ing from all parts of the world.
Mr.. Ford is a mere boy, having
won the Rhodes scholarship for
Mississippi at an examination
held in Jackson three years ago.
At that time he was barely SIX
teen years of age, and his re-
markable showing. following so
closely on the heels of the great
triumphs of the American ath
letes in the Olympic games, adds
another feather to Uncle Sans
cap, and furnishes additional
cause for rejoicing
Mr.. Ford is a student at Christ
Church College. He was born
and reared at Columbia, in the
southern part of the state. and is
a son of the late Attorney Gen
eral Ford, who was Mississippi's S
chief law officer during the first
administration o f Governor

ARTESIA CITIZEN
IN TEXAS
Holds His Own And Asks No Quarters
From Ar One.

The Commercial notes with
pleasure the following from the
Dallas Texas News;
w. S. Newman of Artesia.
Miss. a prominent member of
the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers of America, and also
a prominent member of the
Knights of Phythias, is spending
his vacation in Dallas. For many
years Mr.. Newman has operated
an engine on the Mobile and Ohio
Railroad. bs a delegate he at
tended the annual meeting of the
locomotives engineers in Dallas
last May and was so impressed
with the city that he has return
ed to make some investment.
Mr.. Newman takes a leading
part in politics in Mississippi.
Abiding to politics last night. he
said: AS usual we are going to
give Mr.. Bryan a big majority
in Mississippi. The members of
Brotherhood of Locomotive Eng
neers and a large number of men
in other branches f railroad
work throughout the country
will vote against Mr.. Taft They
have never forgotten that during
a railroad strike twenty years
ago, when Mr.. Taft was a Judge
of the United States Circuit
Court of Appeals in the Ohio dis
trict, he sent a bunch of engi-
neers to Jail for refusing to take
their trains out of town Rail
road men believed at the time,
and they still believe. that Judge
Taft had no legal authority even
to order the arrest of the engin-
GERS, much less to send them to
prison, on that occasion, and
that his act was an arbitrary
and unwarranted interference of
the Fereral judiciary on behalf
of capital without giving labor
hearing. From what | can hear,
the members of the brotherhood
will vote solidly against Mr.. Taft
and will throw all their influence
with other labor organizations
against him. The brotherhood
has had to wait a long time to
get back at Judge Taft, but the
time has now come and they will
not fail to avail themselves of it, -

STATUE To LATE
GENERAL S. D. lee
To Be Placed in the Yickshurg National
Military Park

The following correspondence
with reference to the placing of
statute of the late General Ste
phen d. Lee in the Vicksburg
National Military Park, is taken
from the New Orleans States of
yesterday:
"Tallulah, La, Aug. 8, 1908.
Dear Sir-I am in receipt of
letter from General Castleman
and | take the liberty, for the
good of the service. to give it to
the public:
my Dear Major-I noticed in
the New Orleans papers your let
ter of the 5th, ceiling attention
of the public to the fact that
Captain Rigby was trying to
raise money enough to erect a
memorial in the shape of a bronze
statute to General Stephen D..
Lee.
Il want to thank you for your
move in this direction, and wish
other Confederate Veterans
would take the same interest in
perpetuating the memory of our
departed hero.
Il have this day forwarded to
Capt. Rigby my check for $5 as
a modest contribution on my part
for this just and most important
monument. With kind regards
to your little daughter, | am, fra
ternally yours,
IT. w. CAsTLEMAN,
Major General Commanding"
General Lee was an artillery
officer in the A. N. V. and during
the last two years of the war in
the Southern or Tennessee army,
has claims on the camps of each
of these organizations.
81 remember the splendid
handling of his twenty-five guns
at the second Manassas, where
he tore up the assaulting columns
of Fitz John Porter, also his
splendid service in the battles
leading up to the siege of Vicks-
burg and in the trenches there.
| had the pleasure of honoring
him as friend, who dignifed
me in writing on his photo To
One of the Old Louisiana Boys,
the proudest titles he could have
given me.
Il am in earnest regarding
this statute, and have and shall
continue to agitate the matter
until we, Confederates alone,
place this memorial in that park.
Send contributions to my friend,
Capt. w. T. Rigby, Military Park.
