The Natchez Excursion.

The largest train load of people
that ever pulled into Natchez was
carried over the Mississippi Cen
tral Railroad Tuesday when thir-
teen coaches, carrying between
1900 and 400 excursionists rolled
into Natchez at :45 p. a.
Immediately On the arrival of
the train the immense throng was
greeted With open arms by all
Natchez citizens and invited to
the heavy laden tables of barbe-
cued meats and other viands, on
the historic bluff overlooking the
Mississippi river, where everyone
was made to feel at home, each
and everyone of the exeursionists
in short while feeling as if they
were the one particular guest in
whom the warm hearted Natchez
people were most interested and
anxious to please and have him or
her enjoy themselves to the ut
most.
Mayor Benbrook made a short
and gracious address, welcoming
the M. G. excursionists in behalf
of the citizenship, saying among
other things that they had the red
paint and brushes and it was up to
the guests of the city to use them,
which was greeted with great ap-
pIause. Hon. G. R. Dale, of
Prentiss, feeIingly responded on
behalf of the excursionists.
After the bounteous dinner and
barbecue, announcement was
made that free tickets would be
issued to trolley rides, boat rides,
a baseball game between Natchez
and Meadville and at night to
"The Magic Bird" at the Baker
Grand Opera House, an ameteur
entertainment gotten up especially
for the enjoyment of the M. G.
people, and whi3h was greatly en-
joyed, especially the scenic repro
duction of the M. G. train arriv-
ing in Natchez, which was greeted
with many lusty cheers.
The excursion left on the return
trip soon after the close Of the
opera house performance, al
though a large number remained
over till the regular morning
train.
The day passed off without
single accident or incident to mar
it's pleasure and every one was
loud in their praise of the royal
welcome and treatment accorded
them by the Natchez people,
which was all and more than the
most sanguine had ever expected.
The Mississippi Central officials
had capable and ample help in
charge of the train-one man to
every car and considering the
immense crowd handIed-did the
work like veterans.

A nurse at the polls to take
care Of the babies while the
mothers voted was a novel feature
of recent election at Bellevue,
Idaho. The election was close,
the issue exciting, and every
effort was made to bring out the
voters, both men and women.
All possible facilities were pro
yided for the ladies, not only car
riages to bring them to the voting
place, but nurse to look after
the infants. The vexed question,
Who will take care of the
baby ~ is quickly solved where
women have vote.

About Wives and Blind Tieers.

Governor Noel states that he
has received more petitions for
pardons and clemency towards
men convicted or running blind
tigers than for any other crime,
or perhaps all other crimes, since
he was inducted into Office last
January, and that he has received
several letters of late from various
communities asking for financial
aid in running down such Offend
ers and breaking up the business.
The Governor has no fund that is
set apart especially for this pur-
pose, but where he can will render
such assistance as can be spared
from the executive contingent
fund. This fund amounts to only
S., 900 and must last two years.
Most of it will be expended on re-
wards for escaped criminals or
fugitives, but portion will be
used III running blind tigers to
their lairs.
During the past few days three
different women have been to see
the Governor asking pardons for
their husbands men who have
been convicted Of selling whisky,
and a class of criminals for whom
the Governor has no sympathy
whatever. II is represented by
the poor little women who seek
pardons that their husbands are
not used to the hard work of the
county farm or the chain gangs,
and that If they are kept on the
farms long enough to work out a
$500 fine and the ninety days inn
prisonment, they will die. a
real genteel looking little woman
was here Saturday afternoon from
Hattiesburg on this mission, but
she received no encouragement
and the chances are that her hus-
band will have to complete his
term on the farm. Daily Clarion
Ledger.
Perhaps one reason Gov. Noel
turns deaf ear to the appeals of
THE wives Of blind tigers for par
dons is, that be has greater
thought and consideration for the
wives and children of the men
Eho are tempted TO patronize the
Tigers. Tn some instances, COO,
Ihe knows that The wives Of blind
tigers have aided their husbands
in carrying on the unlawful, de-.
grading traffic.

The Taft enthusiasm seems to
have cooled off with the Teddy
demonstration at the Chicago con-
vention. 1t will be hard for any
big mans Friday to be elected
President of the United States.
Everybody knows that Taft's
nomination was absolutely die
tated by President Roosevelt and
as the creature of the present ad
minlstration he will have an up
hill pull to reach the white house.
The American people have an idea
that they do not care to support a
man for the chief executive Office
of the nation who may appear in
any sense the creature of another.

A tIydra-IIeaded Monster.

Louisville, KY, June 26. AT
the meeting of the executive COM
mittee of the National Model Lii
cense League today resolution
was adopted asking the resigna-
tion of Lee Levy & Co.. of St.
Louis, as members of the organ
ization. Lee Levy & Co. have
been indicted in Tennessee on the
charge of circulating obscene
literature in the form of labels on
bottles of gin sold to negroes. A
prominent officer of the National
Model License League made the
following statement:
The National Model License
League was formed for the sole
purpose of correcting abuses in
the liquor trade through the
means of promulgating law that
will take the liquor question cut
of politics. The league does not
consider itself in any way respon-
sible for the misconduct of any
individual, but at the same time
the officers and members of the
league feel that in justice to
themselves they should not bear
the odium of aftiliating with men
or firms accused of improper con-
duct. The money paid to the
National Model License League
Iby Lee Levy & Co. has been re-
funded by mail"
The entire country seems to be
in the serpentine coil of this
vicious monster of obscene litera-
ture. There was on exhibition
yesterday in Vicksburg, the most
disgusting of all these hideous
publications. 1t is a card printed
in flaming coIors, issued by
Wright & Taylor of Louisville,
KY, advertising their Fine Old
Kentucky Taylor Whiskey." No
other author than wtiskey could
have produced such brutal, re-
puIsive horror. Only degrada-
tion and immortality could have
conceived the vile and suggestive
filth it portrays.
Doubtless this firm is one of
the leading members of the
National Model License League,
AS 1t is known to be one of the
leading" distilleries of Louis
vile; and one of it's members was
last year president of the National
Wholesale Liquor Dealers Asso-
citation. In whiskeydom the firm
is one of the "top-notchers.''
It is not Qnly up to the Nation
al Model License League to stern
ly rebuke this publication, but the
iron hand of the law should be
invoked to administer swift and
drastic punishment. Whiskey
has caused great woe in the land,
but not in all it's Infamous prosti-
tuition of its devotees, could it
curse the world more than by the
publication and distribution of
these vile cards.
Every city in the land should
awake to this insidious evil, and
vigorously prosecute the offenders
who are circulating it. Vicks

ing from an illness which prevented
him from earning his living. Sir Fred

completely cured him Of his trouble.
Some weeks afterward the man called
upon Sir Frederick at his private house,
and, much to his surprise, presented
him with coin At first Sir Frederick
refused to take it, but the man would
not be put off.
