WOULD STRENGTHEN PROHIBI-
TON LAW.

Two important measures were intro
duced in the lower house Friday, having
for their purpose material strengthen
ing of the present prohibition statutes
one by making more stringent the penalty
for violations in case of second or sub
sequent offense, and the other to en-
force the education of school children
as to the effects of alcohol on the human
system. Both are introduced by Judge t.
r Langston, of WalthalI, representing
Webster county, and both are said to have
the approval of many members of both
houses to begin with.
The first mentioned measure simp-
ly amends Section I746 of the laws of
1908, in regard to penalties for selling
liquors, so that on conviction for a second
or subsequent offense of selling liquor
or keeping liquor for sale, the penalty
will be fine or Imprisonment as under
existing laws. At present the minimum

one weeks Jail sentence; for the second
offense the minimum is $1oo or 60 days
imprisonment. Judge Langston believes
that by making a Jail sentence an impera-
tive part, of the penalty for second offense:
there will be fewer second offenses and
still fewer third cases.
The other bill introduced by Judge
Langston while not exactly a companion
bill to the one just mentioned, still has
for its object the same ultimate end-s

TO CHRISTIANIZE THE WORLD.

Thousands of earness supporters of the
Yaymen's Missionary Movemen, which
aims at Outstanding the whole world
during the present generation. have arriv-
ed in New York to attend the conference
in support of the movement which is ex-
pected to eliminate in a monster rally
in Chicago in May next The idea
behind the movement is that the his
tory of the world is moving in such
a way as to open the door to missions,
and that if the opportunity is not seized
at once no such favorable opening may
again be offered. A campaign of educa-
ton on national scale is conducted by
the Laymens Missionary Movement, with
the endorsement of the Foreign Missionary
Boards Of America. The movement
is not connected with any church, and
is entirely on the hands of aymen. One
of the objects of the campaign is to raise
a fund of $3o,ooo,ooo for the purpose of
Outstanding the world The conference,
which opened Friday with dinner for
5000 at the Hotel Aston continued through
Saturday and closed on Sunday with a

THE BRANDON NEWS, THURSDAY JANUARY 20. 1910
THE SOUTH NEEDS NO DEFENDERS

Since the death of the late Senator
McLaurin, of Mississippi, the newspapers
have had much to say of him. He was a
gentleman generally honored and respec-
ted. He was loved at home. He was
revered in states foreign to the south for
his views and actions in the senate of the
United States.
In many instances he has been styled
the defender of the south
The New York Evening Sun has taken
the suggestion very much to heart and
has the following comment to make of
it:
1--WE note, however, that many papers
say of him that he was especially con-
spicuous as defender of the SOUTH"
The south needed defenders" forty,
even thirty years ago, when the clouds
of reconstruction brooded over the section
and it was hard to distinguish between
truth and falsehood, between fact and cal
culated Misrepresentation. Since 1882 the
south has not been the object of either
horror or pity, and it has suffered nothing
through lack of champions and apologists
For more than a quarter of century
it has been opened to inspection and ex-
ploitation. Thousands of men and mil
lions of dollars have gone there from the
north and east. Railroads, iron mines
and mills, timber tracts, cotton factories
wild lands and a hundred other fields
of investment and industry have been
opened proftably.
In the yellow jasmine districts OF
southern Mississippi there may be still
lingering survivors of the pleasant old
conviction that the Hon. Eugene Hale
is thinly disguised demon of destruc-
ton, that the Hon. Joe Cannon is a
Minotaur of especially relentless passion:
and that the Hon. Henry Cabot Lodge
is monster with, flaming eyes and gnarled
and hairy limbs, raging for the blood OF
southerners and the ruin of their cherished
institutions. But the roll of the 'defen-
der" is extinct Nobody is accusing the
south, any more than the north or the
east or the west The great brotherhood
of progress and expansion includes them
ALL"
To this friendly article the CONNER
cial Appeal aptly adds:
"To great extent the Sun is right
The south needs no defenders. The day
when some one had to stand sponsor is
over. The south is now supreme. Other
sections may need defenders, but, looking
the rest of the world in the eyes, the
south can say without fear that it is
independent in commerce, in manufacture
ing interests, in agriculture and in all OF
the trades and avocations necessary to man
There was a time when the south was
shattered 1t was the old south. There
is today new south, bigger south, ar
independent and assertive south that will
hold its own forever, and which will fight
its way to still more significant achieve
ments and which needs no defenders
This is true. All that the south
needs is to see that her best and ables
men are selected to represent it in the
halls of the Congress. 1t wants mer

the ability to present them. 1t no Longer
