TROUBLE BREWING over
A PRELIMINARY CASE

Louisville, Miss, Oct. 1S.-Since
the termination of the Permenter
murder trial here there has been
general moving of people from the
Rural Hill community, especially
those who were directly concerned in
the case as witnesses. c. w. Sharpe,
the father of the murdered girl, has
sold out all of his property and moved
TO McCool with his family. Many in
timidating letters have been received
of a threatening nature by several
which necessitated their removal.
The conditions at present in that
community are strained and trouble
is liable to break out at any moment.

Will ENFORCE
TICK QUARANTINE
Governor Noel Much Interested in
This Matter and Issues Positive
Orders.

Jackson, Miss, Oct. 1S.-Governor
Noel is determined to have the quar-
antine regulations against cattle tick
enforced, and, with this in view. has
written letter to the county attor-
neys of Marshall and Benton, instruct
ing them what to do in the matter.
A few persons are violating the laws
with impunity, and the justices of the
peace and grand juries refuse to pun
lsh the offenders. This matter was
called to the attention of the governor
some time ago, and he wants to en-
force the law through the state courts,
if possible, but, failing in this, he
will direct that the matter be taken
before the federal court.
Governor Noel has advised the coun-
ty attorneys to call attention of the
court to the fact that grand juries
have failed to return indictments for
this offense, and the governor
Will use every means in his
power to secure an enforce
ment of the law before turning the
matter over to the federal authorities,
which he has a right to do, under the
provision of the act creating the live
stock sanitary board and authorizing
1t to cooperate with the federal agents
in eradicating the cattle tick in Missis-
sippi.

Section II of the law relating
to the primary e ection says:
mo person shall be qualified
to vote at any primary unless
he will be a qualified elector OF
the county and state at the next
general election and at the time
of the primary be duly regis
tered in the precinct where he
offers to vote"
1t is therefore necessary that
all persons take the earliest OPP
portunity to register for the
forthcoming election. In this
election 1t is the people who
nominate the candidates and
should they fail to qualify and
perform the duties imposed up
on them by the legislature,
their inaction would serve to
stultify the law framed for their
benefit.

INVESTMENT OF FUNDS,

The Caldwell News has in
several ISSUES discussed a plan
which it claims to be Alexand.
er's, for investing the trust
funds of the state. 1t advo-
Gates the idea OF investing those
funds IN State and county war
rants and thus at one stroke
keep this class of securities at
par and at the same time Sc
cure a large ate off interest
From the articles in that paper
one would naturally draw the
conclusion that this idea was
original with Alexander and at
the same time a master stroke
OF statecrafr But we are
forced to call the attention of
the News to the fact that the
city of Caldwell is now and has
been for several years invest,
ing its sinking funds in city
and county warrantS-the idea
and suggestion of the present
city clerk c. J. Shorb, and who
is now seeking the nomination
for county cler i'll the coming
Republican primaries. How
ever, we do not think that Mr..
Shorb will prosecute Moses
Alexander for any infringe
ments on his idea.
