It is to be hoped that every man,
woman and child in Columbus will
evince enthusiastic and abiding in
terest in the Civic League recently
organized here. This is a iaudable
undertaking on the part of the ladies,
and in order to meet with success
must have the cooperation and sup
port of the people at large Colum-
bians have always been proud of the
beauty of their city and OF it's clean
illness, both from moral and sanitary
standpoints, but there is ever retro
gression or advancement in all things,
and it is the purpose of the ladies
to bring about such an Improvement
in existing conditions that Columbus
can be pointed to with pride as the
model city of the land
The ladies have started out in a
determined manner, and all that is
needed TO insure the success of the
movement is earnest and intelligent
cooperation on the part of the peo-
pie. If the housewife in every home
throughout the city will only make
conscientious and determined effort
to keep her own premises neat and
clean and will require the inmates of
the household to do the same thing,
the battle will be more than half won.
This is a movement in which the
little boys and girls can render as
much aid as their fathers and moth
ers, for most of the trash that lit
ters sidewalks and door yards is scat
tered there by the children, and the
first step toward a model city is to
have not only the places that meet
the public gaze but the back yard and
alleys scrupulously neat and clean.
There are one or two badly needed
improvements that are apparent, and
The Dispatch takes the liberty of
mentioning these and suggesting to
the ladies that they make an effort
TO have them installed. Two badly
needed improvements are lights at
the entrances to the city hall and
courthouse. The entrances to both
these buildings are each night shroud-
ed in darkness, and people going up
or down the steps leading inside are
liable to fall Both the county and
city are amply able to maintain lights
at these entrances, and the Civic
League should insist that they be in
stalled.

DRY IN SPITE OF VETO.

Neither the veto by Governor Pat
terson of the bill providing for State
wide prohibition in Tennessee, nor
the passage of the measure by both
branches of the legislature over the
veto of the chief executive, was
surprise to the public. Every one
familiar with Patterson's sentiments
toward prohibition felt certain that
he would veto the bill, and those
familiar with the strength of the
State-widers in both house and SEN
ate knew that it would be passed over
his veto. Patterson is a Memphis
man, and the strongest fight against
prohibition has been made by the
people of that city. Memphis not
only has large local trade, but ships
large quantities of liquor to dry towns
in Tennessee. Mississippi and Arkan-
sas, and it is universally agreed that
prohibition will work more injury to
the business interests of the city than
to those of any other city in the State.
The senate passed the bill over the
governor > NClO ny the VI - hAcA eO1Cs
which was twenty to thirteen. In
She house there was a slight discre-
pancy in the vote, the original vote
having been sixty-two to thirty-seyen,
while that on the veto was sixty-one
to thirty-six, the majority in both in
stances having been the same.
Under the provisions of the bill
prohibition goes into effect through
out the State on July 1st, next, but
the saloonists and their friends will
make an effort to secure the adoption
OF an amendment extending the time
TO January 1st, 1910. A movement
with this end in view has already
been inaugurated in Memphis, the
City Club there having appointed a
committee to take up the matter and
make every possible effort to have the
much desired amendment adopted.

Miss Alice Patton, a pretty white
girl living in Meridian, and Lum
Jack, a Chinaman who conducts a
laundry in the same city, were mar
ried at Livingston, Ala, last Tuesday.
The couple recently made an effort
to have the matrimonial knot tied in
Meridian. but the laws of Mississippi
prohibit intermarriages between rep
resentatives of the Caucasian and
Mongolian races, and the ill-mated
pair went over into Alabama, where
the laws on the subject are less

Should you find later on. after be-
ing reimbursed for the original cost
of the outfit and operating expenses
and a reasonable per cent to cover
wear and tear, that the individual
charges as fixed are excessive, the
same should be reduced, as you only
wish to make this department self
sustaining and not a source OF rev
enue. simply the cost of maintenance
That you may form some idea as
to the revenue you might expect. and
the probable cost to the property
holder, provided the charges named
are adopted, we will take, for exam
pie, Main street from Third street
to Twelfth (Southern depot There
are on both sides Of said street fifty
five stores or places of business. at
one dollar each; from Seventh to
Twelfth street, or depot, fourteen
blocks or squares, counting both
sides. The cost would be approx
mately two dollars per block. The
cost, then, of sprinkling this street
as named, in the aggregate would be
eighty-three dollars per month. Cor
ner property at crossings, when cross
streets are sprinkled, of course would
have to pay for each street.
Should you think unfavorably Of
this recommendation l would suggest
that you refer the matter to the prop
er committee for investigation, and
that action be taken as early as possi-
BILE, as We only have two or three
necessary arrangements before the

positions of trust has again been
demonstrated in the case of P. A.
Wardlaw, cashier of the American
Trust and Savings Bank, negro fl
nancial institution at Jackson, who
is short in his accounts about $4,000.
Wardlaw was formerly principal of
ter Valley, and was charged with
stealing and selling examination pa

tendent of education. He was ac-
quilted on the charge, and went to
Jackson, where he obtained posi-
