there was no need of muzzling them
and so have prevented the enact

Dumb Animals.
The above is published by re-
quest. tits not in absolute accord,
however, with the Reveille's views
on the subject. Where dogs are
confined in the yards of their mas
ters we can see no objection to leav-
ing the muzzles off, bat for general
safety dogs should be muzzled when
allowed freedom of streets and
other public places.

After Hardy.

Graduates of the Agricultural
and Mechanical College who are in
Jackson state that movement has
been inaugurated that will take
President Hardy away from the
management of the college sooner or
later. The alumni of the big insti-
tuition are now after his scalp, and
it is stated here that there will be
no let-up until his connection with
the college is severed.
It seems to have been the misfor,
tune of the president of the college
to have incurred the displeasure, If
not the bitter enmity, of the alum
mat least some of them and
they are joining forces to oust him.
Prof, Welborn has declared that
the fight has just begun, and his
brother, Capt. Welborn, is equally
determined that President Hardy
shall go. They are prepared to fight
it out on the lines they have map
ped out If it takes all summer or
several summers. He has simply
stirred up hornets nest, and is in
for the fight of his life.-Clarion-

"A decision in Oklahoma has haC
the effect of preventing the Gull
CompressCompany from further op
erations, upon the ground that il
had acquired so many of the inde-
pendent presses that it was adjudg-
ed monopoly" said Mr.. Fletcher.
"In Mississippi the company con-
trolls fifteen congresses, but does
not own all of that number, some
of them being under lease, but ]
should not be surprised If, like in
Oklahoma, Mississippi could not
take action against the company,
charging it with operating mono
poly, and this is a point which I
will fully look into, too," said the
attorney general. Attorney Gener.
al Fletcher said that a very signi-
fcant thing. which he will consider
fully in Connection with the case, is
the fact that this company, operat-
ing so many presses in the state,
makes it more or less a matter of
importance to the cotton interests
of the state to get some decision
reached prior to the fall cotton
season.
He says that every effort will be
made to SO arrange the proceedings
as soon as possible, with view of
not handicapping the cotton men,
and all of those who are directly or
indirectly interested in the hand
ling of cotton on account of this liti-
CATION.
The attorney general would not
give out any further comment than
the above, but intimated very
strongly that something is to be
done very soon, in order to so ad-

ments of cotton, which are now

WRECK ON VALLEY ROAD
Near Burnside. Several Injured,
But None Killed.

Burnside, La, July I8.-As the
result of the work of some fend, SC
the officials believe, the fast train
over the Yazoo and Mississi ppi Val
ley Road was wrecked this after
noon at 4:4o o'clock between Con-
vent and Burnside.
Miraculously no one was killed,
but several were injured. These
are: c. McManus, of Donaldson
vile, injured in his.,ribs and perhaps
internally; ]. H. Bollinger, of Baton
Rouge, bruised in hip, cut on arm
and head; c. w. Chase, baggage
man of New Orleans, side bruised;
cut in head; Ollie Weber, of Lutch-
cher, colored, cut in head; Lee, OF
Burnside, colored, cut on arm; K.
Letcher, of Lutcher, colored, cut
in head.
The wreck was a frightful one,
and the fact that there were not
many fatalities was due to the en-
CINE staying on the rails. The rail-
road men and conductor of the train
are confident that the wreck was the
deliberate work of some train
wrecker.
The wreck was due to the open
ing of what is known as St. Rose
switch. The engine and the first
truck of the baggage car passed
safely over the switch, then the
switch opened and threw the other
coaches off the track. The switch
showed that the pin that holds in
place the rod that governs and work
the switch had been removed and
was lying under the lever. A very
remarkable fact, however, was that
the pin when picked up was bent.
N. Walsh, section foreman of the
Valley Road, was working with his
gang only a short distance from
where the wreck occurred, and will
inspect the switch.

The MuzzIing of Dogs.

An important publication comes
to our table from England, on the
cruelty of muzzling dogs, in which
we find the following:
"Dogs in muzzles cannot lick
their skins, nibble at fleas, eat grass,
which is an absolute necessity, drink
or pant as they should. They suf-
er greatly. No muzzles can be In
vented that will not be intensely
painful to dog. They inJure the
eyes, and are torture both pure and
simple. " Some things not mention
ed in the article occur to us: First
a muzzled dog cannot be of any SER
vice in saving people from drown
ing. Second, a muzzled dog can
be of no service in protecting from
thieves, burglars and tramps, all of
whom would vote to have every dog
in the country muzzled. In past
years we have gathered much eyi-
dence on this subject, and many
times have gone to our State House
to oppose the muzzling of dogs, and
have never failed in single in

The Ten Commandments of AgricuI-
ture.

At an early period it was found
necessary to envolve from the mass
of ethical teaching, a few general
rules for living called 1.-The Ten
Commandments" by which a man
could be moral without going
through course in theology. Just
so, III order to instruct the average
farmer how to successfully conduct
his farm operations so as to secure
greater net gain from the farm, it is
necessary to first reduce from the
mass of agricultural teachings few
general rules of procedure. They
are called 1.-THE Ten Command
ments of Agriculture, by the prac-
tice of which man may be good
farmer in any state without being a
graduate from a college of Agricul-
ture.
I. Prepare a deep and throughly
pulverized seed bed, we'll drained,
break in the fall to the depth of 8, 10
or IL inches, according to the soil,
with implements that will not bring
the subsoil to the surface; (the fore
going depths should be reached
gradually.)
?. We use seed of the best varie-
ty, intelligently selected and care
fully stored.
3. In cultivated crops, give the
rows and the plants in the rows
space suited to the plant, the soil
and the climate.
I. Use intensive tillage during the
growing period of the crops.
S. Secure a high content of humus
in the soil by the use of legumes,
barnyard manure, farm refuse and
commercial fertilizers.
g.. Garry out a systematic crop
rotation with a winter cover crop on
farms.
7. Accomplish more work in
day by using more horse power and
better implements.
s. Increase the farm stock to the
extent of utilizing all the vast pro-
ducts and idle lands of the farm.
9. Produce all the food required |
for the men and animals on the
farm.
10. Keep an account of each farm
product, in order to know from |
which the gain or loss arises

THE GULF ConPREss co.
Efforts Still Being Made to Force
II Out of the State.

Attorney General Fletcher spent
Yesterday in Vicksburg interesting
himself in the case of the State OF
Mississippi VS.. The Gulf Compress
company, which was, last SePtem-
Der 20, given one year within which
to close up its business and vacate
the state.
This action it will be, recalled,
was taken before Chancellor
]. S. Hicks, upon the application OF
District Attorney James D. Thames
who was associated with Gen. I. c.
Catchings as chief counsel, repre-
senting the cotton interests, and the
Gulf Compress Company was ousted
upon the ground alleged, that it
controlled business in Mississippi to
such anextent that it was consid-
cred to be operating in violation of
the states antitrust laws.
Attorney General Fletcher said
before returning to Jackson that
he had held a conference with Gen.
Catchings and together they had
formulated general plan of action,
which will be instituted against the
Gulf Company TO resist all efforts
on its part to continue business in
this state through c. c. Hanson,
the president of the company, who
was not long ago appointed as re-
ceiver for the company.
Attorney General Fletcher said
that in his opinion, the Gulf Com
pressCompany will endeavor to con-
tinue operations in Mississippi, be-
lieving that possibly with receiver
at its head it can do so, but he in
tends to try the legal effect OF
Chancellor Hicks ruling last
year, which he firmly believes
stands good to rule the Gulf Com
press Company out of business, op-
Grated as it was formerly, or now
under the dierction of the receiver.
As Receiver Hanson was named
in the United States court, Attorney
ey General Fletcher was unable to
say whether his next action would
be through the federal or other
court.
He said that other than to make
the general statement, as above,
that General Catchings and himself
have fully gone over the plan of act
ion to take, he preferred not to
make any further remarks concern
ing this phase of the case. Mr..
Fletcher had hoped to see District
Attorney Thames also in connection
with the case, but he was absent

enterprise would give employment

HARDY EXONERATED.
However it is Understood That
He Will Resign.

cultural and Mechanical College has
exonerated President ]. c. Hardy
of all the charges preferred against
him by vote of 10 to a. Notwith-
standing witness after witness testi-
fed that President Hardy is unfit to
be at the head of the institution,
his course has been sustained. Gov.
Noel's conduct in the matter is un-
usually reprehensible. His bias for
Mr.. Hardy knew no bounds, appar-
emily, and everything within his
power was done to bring about a
complete white-washing. Whether
Mr.. Hardy resigns or not, it is only
a matter of time when he will be
put out.

NOT EVEN COMMON SENSE.

Candidate Taft said in Connecticut
the other day that 1.-The only way Bry-
an ever Influenced the return of pros
perity was by being defeated
AS the present lack of prosperity is
the result of twelve years of republi-
can rule, wherein lies the logic of
Taft's assertion. Certainly Taft's cleo
ton will not restore a business depres-
sion brought on by republican miscon-
duct.
The greatest panic this country ever
saw occurred last year when every
department of the national govern
ment was absolutely controlled by the
republican party, with more than 250-
600 Office holders added.
Under such circumstances if Mr.
Bryan had said that 1.-THE only hope OF
return of prosperity to the people OF
the United Staes, is to be found in the
election of Bryan" it would have beer
not only a reasonable conclusion. blu,
one based on the soundest principle OF
logic.
Taft had said that the only hope OF
those who like the jingle of euphonie
sentences-but there wasn't the slight
est common sense contained therein.

TAFT WAS FOR PUBLICITY.

In a leading editorial published on
July - 1908. The Post-Intelligencer
of this city proclaimed that Judge Taft
was for making public all political
contributions-and that The Post-In-
telligencer heartily endorsed that at
titude.
AS there has been no opportunity for
any new evidence to be taken in the
case that would either change the
mind of Judge. Taft or the "P.-I" the
bout face" of both is matter of in
terest
We therefore reproduce that editor
ial published as aforesaid and ask our
patrons to read it with care and then
to satisfy themselves whether this
change of heart has honestly occurred
1t will be remembered that men
who believe with Mr. Bryan that all
persons contributing to political
campaign. and especially of a national
character, should be made known
were and are in favor of a national law
making such publicity absolutely ne
ceSsary.
1t seems. however that the friends
of such a measure We're not strong
enough to cause the enactment of such
a iaw-but The "P.-L" endorsed the
effort quite as heartily as it en-
dorsed Judge Taft's opinions touching
the question of publishing politica
contributions.
But now both Judge Taft upon the
stump and The "P.-I." in print are op-
posed to such NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. th5
leader quoted below becomes all the
more interesting The "P. l." said:
A novelty in political campaigns is
to be afforded in the present one by
TIE carrying out of the announced de-
termination Of Mr.. Taft and the re-
publican national committee to give
the widest publicity to every financial
detail. The laws of the state of New
York, in which the campaign commit
tee will have headquarters. require the
publication of campaign contribution.

made the panic of 1898 the burden of
their speeches, and yet Mr.. Taft, Gov
ernor Hughes and other republicans
On the stump are predicting that the
country will go to the bad in the event
of Mr. Bryans election. There were
no starving school children in '93, and
as Mr.. Bryan APPLY said in his speech
to the Bryan and Kern Business Mems
association in Chicago official statis-
tics show that the losses by reason of
business failures for nine months in
the present fiscal year are in excess of
those for the same period during the
panic Of 1898.
1t does not lie in the mouth of
Judge Taft to prophesy hard times in
the light of the record of the present
administration, of which he is the
shining member.

but naturally the state laws cannot
apply to other states.
This does not make any difference
with Mr.. Taft and those having
charge of his campaign. There will be
no secrecy of any kind. The name OF
each and every contributor to the ma
tional campaign fund will be published
with the amount of his contribution
There will be no room left for surmise
for nasty insinuations, or for question
ing the motives of those who elect to
help the republican party meet its
proper and inevitable expenses during
the campaign. The facts will be known
in full to every voter before the cam
paign closes. There will be no fat
frying; no bargains for future favors
no secrecy either as to receipts or ex-
renditures.
This is prominently the proper
thing to do. It is a position which
