The greatest shake-up which has ever
occurred in the customs service of the
country has been going on in New York
City since VIM. Loeb Jr., assumed the
Office of collector in March last. Soon
after entering upon his duties Collector
Loeb became convinced that gigantic
frauds in the way of NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
duties were being carried on Iby means
of under valuations, frauds in weigh
ing, etc and he determined to put a
stop to the further swindling of the gov
eminent. To bring about results it be-
came necessary for him to promise i'm
munity to three employees if they con-
fessed all they knew regarding the ir-
regularities, for which Mr.. Loeb has
been severely criticised but the devel-
opments of the past few days surely JUS
tify his actions. As q result of this work
1914 employees have been discharged and
1873 others have been reduced in rank
This, however, is but small part as
many prosecutions, especially of men
high up in the sugar trust-the largest
beneficiary of the frauds practiced-are
to be prosecuted. Collector Loeb has
done the country great service and

Aldrich's Effective Campaign.

The fact that Senator Aldrich has
just addressed large audience in
Senator Cummins home without men
tioning Cummins name except in a
courteous way may surprise some per-
sons. 1t will not surprise anybody who
knows Mr.. Aldrich, however. Senator
Cummins made an attack upon him
recently, as sort of sequel to many
previous attacks, and all on account of
certain provisions in the tariff act to
which he, Cummins, objected.
But Mr.. Aldrich is not discussing the
tariff on his trip through the West.
Like the majority of the people he sees
that the tariff question is settled, and
he is giving his attention to live issues.
The particular issue which has brought
him here is the necessity of devising
some measure of monetary reform. He
is not imposing his own views on that
subject upon the people. As he stated
on the eve of his trip in our direction

rather than teacher. While he has
his own preferences as to some OF the
features which ought to be in the money
measure which will be introduced in
Congress year hence, or thereabouts,
he is not telling anybody else to accept
these views Nor is he at all certain
that his views will be sanctioned by
the National Monetary Commission of
which he is the chairman.
1t may be stated right here however,
with the utmost confidence, that during
the few days in which Mr.. Aldrich has
been in the West he has won many
friends. In the art of stating propo.
sitions clearly, and Invested of all en-.
tangling alliances with extraneous
issues, the Rhode Island statesman is a
past master. He is here to talk about

Jackson, Nov. 29.-The right OF the
Governor to issue pardon conditional
upon the good behaviour of it's re-
cipient will be subjected to legal
test in event the Pike county author
tiles succeed in capturing Bud Wall,
the celebrated ex-convict who defed
the entire police force of McComb
City few nights since, keeping a
squad of bluecoats at bay who were
attempting to raid his barber shop
and search it for contraband liquor.
Bud Wall was pardoned by Governor
Noel only few weeks ago, and the
extension of clemency was due to an
executive error, as the Governor was
under the impression that the pardon
was being issued to a Madison county
convict who had been recommended
for release on the ground of "meritor-
ious public service in capturing a pris-
oner who was attempting to escape
from custody" The pardon contained
the condition that Wall must faith
fully observe all of the laws of the
state, and neither engage in the sale
of or drink intoxicating liquors. Ac-
cording to reports from Pike county,
the celebrated ex-convict had hardly
reached his old stamping ground
when he opened up barber shop with
a blind tiger attachment, and was
doing fiourishing business up to

DEPOSITARY FOR
DELTA LEVEE BOARD
Special to The News.


JACKSON, Miss, November 20
The question of establishing a deposi-
tory for the funds of the Yazoo-
Mississippi Delta Levee Board, which
provoked fight of much celebrity at
the last session of the lawmakers,
will again come before the body at
the January session.
The levee board is using a rather
makeshift depository system, it's sur
plus funds being distributed among
various banking institutions, but
there is no law authorizing the collec-
ton of interest thereon. A bill to
remedy this defect has been drafted
and will be recommended by the gov
ernor, at the request of that body
Briefly outlined, the act seeks to
authorize the levee board to charge
and collect not less than two per cent
interest on all deposits made in &C.
cordance with the law enacted at the
1908 session, and is amendatory of
Section 2, Chapter 81, session acts of
1908, and to authorize the levee board
to raise deposits with banks offering
the highest rates of interest.
1t is expected that the two levee
boards will have several other meas
ures to propose at the January ses-
sion. The delta counties will also
furnish very lively legislative fight
when the proposition to exempt GER
tain counties from the territory in.
cluded within the Tallasatchie Drain
