sPIkINo THE sPITTERs.

Some of the business men in Hat
tiesburg have become so disguised witt
the habit OF men sitting in front oil
their display windows, and splitting
great pools of tobacco juice on the
sidewalke, that some of them have
fixed their window stills with sharp
heavy spikes to prevent them sitting
down at least, and now if The News
could invent something that would
spike a man everytime he befouis the
sidewalk with tobacco JUICE it feels
sure that an immortal crown would
be coming from the ladies of Hatties-
burg, who are compelled to walk over
such disgusting filth.
There are some men perhaps in Hat
tiesbIrg who do not know any better
but some of those guilty of expecto-
rating on the sidewalks are men who
know better; men who are supposed
to be of character worthy of emula-
ton, yet they will spit right in the
middle of the sidewalk when it would
have been but little trouble to have

before unloading.
None of these men would think of |
splitting on the floor of their home or

Editor News:-I note in your issue
of Wednesday that Alderman Lassiter
blithely informs us that there must
be an increase in the tax levy. VIII
the gentleman please explain why with
all his promises before election, he
has not put himself on record for
some reforms which would have kept
down the expenses of the city and
kept out of debt? Did ne put himself
on record as opposing the raising of
Chief Potters wages three hundred
dollars year when he knew that the
city could not possibly meet it's pay
roll for the whole year, without bor-
rowing money? Is he not aware that
Hattiesburg has about twice as many
policemen as is needed and that he
could effect great saving in this di-
rection? 1t is not a fact that the ex-
penses of the police department has
been increased since Mr.. Lassiter and
his associates on the city council,
were elected with the understanding
that there was to be retrenchment and
reform? Has he not yet become wise
to the fact that the fire department
has doubled in expense in the last two
years and that insurance rates have
not been decreased. Has he yer put
his probe into the fire department to
see how much might be saved there
without loss in necessary effective
ness?
Enough money is collected by the
city in the way of taxes to provide
plenty Of funds to run the city gov
eminent and run it effectively and
the tax payers are not going to stand
for any raise.
Respectfully yours,
T. M. A.

visiting neighbor and bespatting the
front gallery but they will cover the
sidewalk with filth, where their own
and other mems wives must encounter
it.
Not only is this habit dirty and
filthy, but it is dangerous from a
health standpoint, and it would be a
very easy matter for men who are
addicted to the habit, to always step
to the edge of the sidewalk and spit
into the street instead Of being so in
formally careless with their disgusting
expectorations.

BUFFALO WHEAT
RATES ARE CUT

BUFFALO, N. Y, April 26.-For the
last two seasons of lake navigation an
increased proportion of grain for ex-
port has been carried by the lake
routes operating from western lake
ports via the Welland canal to Mon
treal at exceedingly low rates, which
has seriously depleted the shipments
by lake via Buffalo and other Lake
Erie ports to New York and other At
lantic ports.
With view Of retaining a fair
share in this business in the Buffalo
all-rail routes to New York the rail-
roads leading east from Buffalo have
found it necessary to reduce their
rates, and will announce a reduction
today on wheat only for export from
5H2 to cents per bushel, Buffalo to
New York, with corresponding chang
es to other Atlantic ports. The ar
rangement is temporary one.
The rates on other grains will not
be changed, and it is not understood
that the change made from Buffalo on
wheat will be followed by changes in
the all-rail rates from Western points
These reduced rates are made solely
for the purpose of meeting the COM
petition of the Canadian water routes.

The most striking feature in the ap-

not only have to stand an examination,
but his application may be rejected
by the inspectors on the ground that
he has bad habits. It is customary to
refuse to receive the application of a
man whose license has been. revoked
until the time OF the revoked license
expires. Haughey's license had about
three years to run.
The charges against Haughey grew
out of row between his assistants

had left this port. After the row
