FOR GREATER MISSISSIPPI
Of of the

y H. 3 BLAKEsLEI, Jackson Miss.

The writer is in receipt of the fol-
lowing thoroughly sensible letter from
III. 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 l have been reading your ar
ticles in the Neshoba. Democrat on
Greater Mississippi for 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 11th inst, with Ocabla Local.
Twenty-Five locals with membership
of $50 were represented by delegates.
We have a good warehouse at Melon
aid on the M. 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
81 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, espee-

vember, one-t 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. l 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
ito make no more calls to bring the
membership up to 10000 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 &C
complished.

Cheering news comes from every
part of the state with reference to the
fifteen cent holding movement. The
farmers are standing by their agree
ment admirably as one brother says,
"we are ont of biscuits just now, but
will eat bacon and corn bread until
We get the price that we feel we are
entitled to- Another thing that
looks good is the fact that there is q
general determination among those
who have heretofore bought largely
on credit TO cut it out for the pres.
ent year. The great movement in
auguraed three years ago is bearing
fruit of substantial nature. Even
if cotton does not go TO fifteen cents
this year. il has been lowering around
the twelve cent mark for some time
with the the prospect of going higher.
1t is safe TO sap that the Union and
Cotton Association are responsible. for

has already been accomplished and
prospects for the future are bright

Representative Frazier of Benton
county has prepared and introduced a
measure that if it is made law will
be worth great deal to the people of
Mississippi, especially those living ad-
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 rhe effort
and lets it 90. Mr.. Frazier has pre-
pared mesaure 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 worth. 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 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 us hope that this will
become law and be strictly enforced.
-
The prospect for 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 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 a few
years the county without fair will
be an exception instead of rule.

railroad capitalization. Ii is idle to
say that this measure is limited in
its scope; that it has reference simply
to limited issue OF railway bonds, as
security He is blind indeed who does
not see the ultimate effect OF pro-
position which directly or indirectly
raises standard for the payment OF a
fixed dividend upon railway capitali-
zation without regard to the valuation
OF the property The certain effect
OF this action by congress is to stimu-
late every-railroad company within
the purview OF this statute to main
tain the position Of its bonds within
the favored class and every other
railway company to qualify at the
earliest possible moment for admis-
sion to the favor class. 1t is plain,
sir, as the noon-day sun that the di-
rect effect Of this proposition is to
advance railroad rates, and it will
indemnity the government with a
maintenance Of rates in all cases
where it has accepted railway bonds
for current circulation"
He insisted that the Interstate
Commerce Commission is not EN-
powered to ascertain the value Of the
physical property of the railway COM
panies Of the country and strongly
favored such a valuation as the only
means Of fixing railroad rates.

faith of the country will be pledged
to defeat any legislation that suggests
disturbance of the four per cent
dividend upon the stocks. The Sena-
tor from Rhode Island will be heard
in solemn warning.
"He will be told that the bonds
were bought by the banks not to
make money, but to be held in readi
ness to protect the credit and COM
merce of the country; that bond mar
kets are easily disturbed; that such
security is delicate and sensitive; that
legislation menacing dividends even
upon grossly watered stock would
alarm the holders Of these bonds and
force them upon falling market at
great sacrifice, possibly producing
panic and leaving the banks but par
tally prepared to take out emergency
currency.
"Could any plan be devised which
would be effective in blocking the
way of legislation for valuation Of
the physical properties of railroads
and defeating the final reduction Of
rates to justifable basis"

find out what splendid lungs her husband

Grades of Roads.

The grade is the most important fac
tor to be considered in the location OF
roads. The smoother the road surface
the less the grade should be. Whether
the road be constructed Of earth, stone
or gravel, steep grades should always
be avoided If possible. They become
covered at times with coatings of ice
or slippery soil, making them very diff
cult to ascend with loaded vehicles, al
well as dangerous to desc7nd. They
allow water to rush down at such q
rate as to wash great gaps alongside
or to carry the ~surfacing material
away. As the grade increases in steep
ness either the load has to be dimin'
ished In proportion or more horses %
