HANG A FEW.

AS sequel to the failure of the
circuit court of this county to mete
out just and adequate punishment
to Charley Williams for the murder of
his wife at the tie plant in this county
about year and half ago, two Other
negro women have been similarly
murdered in our midst since then.
1t will be recalled that Charley Will
Jams beat his wife to death with a
lantern. When arraigned for trial,
to the surprise of every one, Will
Jams was allowed to plead guilty and
take a life sentence. He was sent to
the penitentiary and in six months
made his escape. Had he been hanged.
we dare say that the murder of the
Hemphill woman and Matte Bradley
would not have occurred. Where the
proof is positive and absolute thta a
wanton and unprovoked crime has
been committed, even though all the
participants be negroes, we think on
courts err egreglously in not inflict-
ing the full measure of punishment
provided by law. 1t will not do to

SHOULD BE REMEMBERED.

There is one defect in the school
system which ought to be looked af-
ter and remedied: The disposition
to change textbooks when there is
no necessity for a change. 1t looks
sometimes like the child Is being
used as patron of the book publish
er. rather than the books being used
for the benefit of the child. Within a
year, another textbook publisher
commission is to be appointed and
Will be called upon to adopt a uni
form system of books for the entire
state. 1t is to be hoped that the ex-
executive will select men who will be
true to the people, and not the friends
of the book publishers. -Vardaman's

The metropolitan papers tell us that
two European princes of the blood
royal have opened formal negotiations
with her father for the hand in mar.
riage of Miss Marjorie Gould, daugh-
ter of George Gould. That is not the
way to put it. 1t is time the papers
were telling the story straight. This
vulgar way rich girls have of selling
themselves to broken down routes of
Europe, ought not to have thrown
around it any glamour of love or mar
riage or responsibility. 1t is plain
barter and sale. 1t is the lady's
dowry not her hands the princes of
royal blood" is after. If she was
pigeon-toed, knock-kneed, cross eyed
and club-fisted, the princes of the
blood royal would not quail before
her deformities if the dowry was suf-
attractive.

Roosevelt is said to be getting

in 1912 by planning to destroy Can

sale slaughter of game in the iungles
of Africa probably put the notion in
his head and makes it impossible for
him to refrain from the extermina-

civilization. For example, he imag-

William Travers Jerome has decid-

district attorney for New York. He
is the greatest prosecuting attorney
in the world today. He can take q
big case and handle it more thorough
ly. He can take a tangled case and
unravel it better And neither greed
