is one which puzzles the most expert
railroad man, and it is not reasonable
to suppose that railroad companies
/, would accept the opinion of a layman
against the judgement of one who is
supposed to be thoroughly familiar
with the line of work assigned to him.
hence the courts are appealed to for
an adjustment of the differences, cost
ing the railroads annually thousands
of dollars which might be spent for
the improvement of their lines and
better facilities for handling traffic.
So far as the News has been able to
ascertain, there has been no insistent
demand for any radical change in the
cotton rate schedule, and admitting
that there has, the Injustice of the
measure should appeal to the commits
sion and prevent it's adoption. Furth-
ermore, the News does not believe
that the commercial interest of the
towns which would be the chief bene-
flciaries under the new schedule
would insist upon the change if they
were properly informed as to the hard
ship it would work upon interior points

A RED LETTER DAY.

Yesterday was a RED Letter Dav'
In the history of Hattiesburg. IT was
the exemplification of the "Hatties
burg Idea" that the most important
work the business interests have be.
fore them is the development of the
country around us. The commercial
and industrial interests are not to be
neglected, but we are going to make
the most of our possibilities and Just
now it is agricultural DEVELOPMENT.
Yesterday was a long step in the right
direction. 1t impressed our business
men with what is already being done
and what good may result from inten-
sified work along this line. Every
business man who went out there yes
terday is now qualified to tell strang-
ers what our agriultural possibilities
are. They will be able to do mission
airy work wherever they are. They
can honestly say that we have a coun-
try capable Of the highest development
land they have been inonulated with the
virus of enthusiasm that will spread
the contagion and there will be moth
ing that can stop it.
The picnic idea is catching. Bright

from Lux who extended an invitation
to have the next picnic in that neigh
borhood f1e was told that the bust

dress a letter to the citizens of the |
EatonviIle and Lux neighborhood and
let them select the place. This shows
the importance of the original move
ment. Another one is planned for In
dian Springs and when our business
men get through visiting they will
know something about where the corn
and cotton is produced and the peo-
pie who produce it.
Now while we are planning our Wis

Circulation Double That of Any
Other South Mississippi Paper
THE PROPOSED
COTTON SCHEDULE.

At another place in this paper will
be found a statement from Mr.. John
G. Jones, general agent of the Illinois
Central and Yazoo and Mississippi
Valley Railroad companies with refer
ence to tn proposed new schedule on
cotton rates as proposed by Chairman
Lee of the Mississippi Railroad Com
mission.
While it is a fact that Mr.. Jones in
terest is centered in the welfare of
the companies which he represents, it
is nevertheless true that his ideas on
the subject are broad-minded and lib
eral, and in thorough accord with the
arguments advanced by representa-
tives of the various commercial organ
izations of the state who went before
the commission recently to protest
against any radical reduction in the
rates now prevailing, emphasizing
their arguments by showing that the
proposed change would work a hard
ship upon and be an injustice to the
business interests of the interior
towns. the river points being the only
beneficiaries under the new schedule.
Chairman Lee and Mr. Scott, the
commissioners who will undoubtedly
resist any effort on the part of the
defeat or modify the measure, are
doubtless conscientious and acting in
good faith, but it is evident that they
are not informed as to the serious
ness of the cause which they espouse,
and this matter emphasizes the ne
cessity and imperative need of an ex-
pert rate maker to assist the commits
sion in it's work of revising railway |
tariffs While it is apparent and TN
denied that some communities have |
been unjustly Disseminated against by |
the railroads in the matter of equit-
able rates, this does not furnish suf-
ficient warrant to the commission in
to force a drastic reduc-
tion in rates on commodity in favor

Italian Relief Fund Scandal.

1t is to be hoped that there is much
exaggeration in the charges made by
the staid and conservative London
Times Of gross neglect and misman-
agement in the distribution of the
funds contributed by all the civilized
nations of the world for the relief of
the victims of the earthquake disaster
in Messina. 1t Is asserted that fully
nine-tenths of the money contributed
Is being held by the general commit
tee for the future aid of he survivors
and their dependents and that press
ing needs as a direct result of the dis
aster are being ignored.
People all ove the world gave lib
orally when the news of the Italian
disaster came and millions of dollars
in money and goods were hurried to
the relief of the sufferers. There was
no question among the donors and no
distinction drawn as to the manner
In which the help was to be afforded.
Thousands we're in want and the
world wanted to assist them. The
Times now charges that many ruins
supposed to contain survivors we're
left untouched for weeks and that
some of the villages remote from the
center of the quake district were
ignored and not even visited for two
months. 1t is claimed that the bodies
of so, 900 victims are yet to be recov-
cred from the ruins.
Under such conditions 1t would APP
peal to be a case of gross incompe-
tence and downright cruelty to with
hold nine-tenths of the relief funds
for the aid of survivors who will be
hard pressed until their crops are
planted and the harvest assured. The
charge is supported in a measure by
the refusal to permit the CORE
spondent of the London Times to send
to his paper many of the facts, even
those that were contained in the OFF,
cial reports Of the Italian government.
The thousands of warm-hearted
people throughout the world who gave
literally to the relief of stricken Italy
are entitled to- a nor satisfactory
accounting than this. II the Italian
government can explain the charges

His Chance.

As a general rule, we already have too
many laws encumbering our statute
books-many are good, some imperfect,
a few bad. The good should be let alone,
the imperfections cured, the bad repealed.
What is needed, in my judgment, is an
honest and fearless enforcement of the
laws that we now have rather than a
constant cure for new laws and new laws
as an excuse for inaction and delay
Governor Shallenberger in Inaugural Mes
sage.
Governor Shallenberger now has his
chance to put precept into practice.
The legislature is about to adjourn,
leaving him piled mountain high with
bills on nearly every subject under the
sun on which he is privileged to exer-
else an unconditional veto.
1t is a safe assertion that the people
of Nebraska would be better off if one
half of these bills never became law.
Governor Sh~allenberger could make a
unique record by taking advantage of
his opportunity to refuse executive APP
prevail to every bill for which there is
not a real, positive demand, or some
valid substantial reason.
If a bill presented to him does not
fit the form he has himself prescribed
if it does not repeal a bad law or cure
existing imperfections, or give relief
to some actual injustice, no harm
would be done and much good would
be accomplished by a fearless assertion
on the part of the governor of his CO.
ordinate authority in legislation. AS
intimated by the governor at the put
set, We are far more likely to suffer
from too many laws than from too few
laws.
