Laurel Ledger.
The convictions in the criminal
courts of this and adjoining states
recently would indicate a growing
sentiment against crime, especially
murder In recent years it has
seemed next to impossible to convict
a mat for murder if he had money
or influence. The unwritten law
idea is waging out and the insanity
plea follows as d last resort, to be
used when the deed is so foul as to
admit no plaus BILE argument. These
tricks have lost their cunning and
the public is waking up to the alarm
ing growth of crime during this lax
in punishment as prescribed by law.
The people who commit the crime of
the country cannot be appealed to,
and can only be restrained by pun
ishmert. Society demands protec-
ton. In the meantime every effort
will be made for a higher public
sentiment.

Hattiesburg Daily News.
There is much car0leSsness about
sending out storm news and but
little thought of the real significance
OF storms. AS a matter of fact
storms are reported as cyclones, that
have no such character. The real
truth about the matter is that people
are killed because they live in houses
that are not constructed to stand an
average severe storm. These houses
are only thrown together to start on
and after few storms they are so
racked that they are veritable death
traps. This is the reason why there
are so many storm fatalities among
the colored population. If more at
tention were given to building
houses with a view to making them
withstand the storms, there would
be less cyclones reported.
