force and efficiency to satisfactorily
handle plant of such extent. Mr.Ing-
ham has given special attention to sys-
tematizing work and establishing a cost
system, and the results he has accom-
plished have been highly gratifying.
A new power plant, costing $4,000, is
in process of construction and is expect
ed, when completed, tomeet all require
mente for some years to come. Ground
has been purchased on which will be
constructed new pressroom, one story
in height, with roof of the saw-tooth
pattern to give abundant overhead light.
These additions will be up to date and
will be up to date in every respect.
Other branches of industry, as most
people are aware, are also carried on by
the Roycrofters, and include the making
of special furniture, ornamental iron
and leather work, rugs, and other arti-
cles. A large and attractively fur
nished hotel, known as the Roycroft
Inn, is operated by them, a part OF
which is arranged with outside sleeping
rooms. They also have bank.
a large farm supplies the vegetables,
cream, butter, etc.
Besides being a workshop, the Roy
croft is also a school, and many distinct
lines of study are followed out. Every
uyorLar iS enrolled as a member of on e
or more classes.
And so this fraternity that started in
a small and modest way, a comparatively
few years ago, has grown into a large
institution employing from three hun
dred people, according to the season
and amount of work in hand, and is
known throughout our land also in many
foreign countries.

ADAM BYRD'S DEFEAT MEANS VARDA-
MANS SUCCESS.

The result of the election in the Fifth
Congressional District has been an eye
opener to the anti Vardaman crowd.
Some time prior to the election they
had been claiming Byrd's election over
Witherspoon by from one to three
thousand majority, but as advices began
to come in from the rural sections, they
were willing to concede that the election
would be close, though claiming it for
Byrd by a safe majority. The vote
showed that Witherspoon was success
full by about 400 majority in the district
This was a clean-cut test of Varda-
mans strength in the district. Byrd
had made one of the best Congressman
the State ever had. He had a strong
personal and political following all over
the district, and the campaign was made
cn his record as a member of the Secret
Caucus, and one of the Common
Cause" bunch that conspired to defeat
Vardaman and the will Of the people
Byrd undertook to defend his course in
that conspiracy, and was antagonized
by Witherspoon, who showed the peo-
pie the inner workings of the Secret
Caucus. The result is admitted every
where as a victory for Vardaman and
the people.
The same is true of every Congressio-
nal fight so far in the State, where this
question was raised.
The handwriting is on the wall, and
no human power can stem the tide that
has set in for Vardaman in 1911. He is
Just as sure to be elected by an over
whelming majority in the first primary
as election day is to roll around.-Yazoo

CONTROVERSY BET
WEEN POLITICIAN
AND PREACHER.

A Ted-hOt political and, perhaps,
"semi-religious" controversy is under
headway between the editor of the
Yicksburg Herald and Hon. Leroy
Percy, parties of the first part, and
Rev. Frank Hallam, party Of the second
part.
DR.. Hallam has contributed several
Well-written articles to ex-Gov. Varda-
| mans paper, "The ISSUE" criticising
the methods by which Mr.. Percy was
elected to the U. S. Senate in the secret
ballot caucus, and arguing that he
should be defeated by ths people. Mr..
Percy, in a recent speech, and the edi-
tor of TIC Herald, in editorials, have
charged that DR.. Hallam is Gan un-
frocked minister of the Episcopal
church. To these severe charges DR..
Hallam, in the last number of "Ihe
issue, makes the following very effec-
tive and convincing reply:
81 am as much entitled to the title Of
a clergyman as l ever was, or as anybody
ever was. 1t was only a short while
ago that I officiated in ST. Andrews
Church, this city; and again at another
place here; and it was but few weeks
ago that l was formally called to the
rectorship of a parish in another do
cese, which visited, and where held
full services and preached, morning and

"Soon after the time you refer to, I
was called to the rectorship Of parish

remained officially in charge for over
five years, when falling health made it
necessary for me to give up all work.
And within a few months Of the time
referred to by you, when [ removed
from Mississippi, was regularly trans
ferred by the Bishop of Mississippi,
who was perfectly familiar with every
thing connected with my career here as
rector Of ST. Andrews Church-trans-
ferred in full and regular canonical
form, with the following words recited
in connection with my name, and signed
by the bishop, under his official seal,

that for three years last past, so far as l
know and believe, he has not been justly
liable to evil report for error of doctrine
or viciousness of life
"When l had sufficiently recovered in

to work in the diocese of Mississippi,
such as is now being performed by the
archdeacon Of the diocese, with my
headquarters at Jackson.

church; l have not been deposed from
the ministry; have not been suspended
therefrom; l have never been tried for
any offense; have never had any, even
the slightest, ecclesiastical proceedings

member of the same church, and, if |
am not mistaken, an officer therein, and
who could have known these facts upon

me, and, correlatively, to blackguard

CHEAP RATES ON ELECTRIC LINE PROVING
Popular. CulfpOrt and Mississippi Traction
Company Innovation Quite Success.

Some time since The Echo noted the
announced intention of the GulfpOrt
Mississippi Traction Company to reduce
its regular fare schedule after supper
hours. that the masses may enjoy at
popular prices the pleasure Of trolley
ride to and fro along the gulf coast,
where the breezes blow.
A report during the week from Biloxi
saws that latter snpper rates on the
Gulfport and Mississippi Coast Trac-
ton line are proving very popular.
The traffic has so increased since it went
into effect that it is necessary for them
to put on extra service on Sunday in
snite Of the fact that cars are running
half-hourly all the time. And this has
not been brought about through the
Woodmen Encampment or any other
outside influence--it is the fulflllment
of a long desire on the part Of the peo-
ple who live along the line. They want
to get out on the cars and whiZZ through
the air, but the price for people with
moderate means and a large family was
lust little too high. However, that IS
changed now, and that the people ap-
nreciate it is shown by the eager way
in which they responded to the "atter
supper rates.. =,
The extra cars will begin running
earlv Sunday on regular schedule with
the other cars; that is, they will not
run singly, they will follow one another
in and out. With the number OF
switches that they now have 1t would
not be possible to increase the schedule.
The extra cars will lessen the number OF
Messengers to each car, thereby giving
more comfort, but will not make it pos
sible to leave for Biloxi or Gulfport
every fifteen minutes, as many might
suppose.

The bureau Of statistics cf the United

potato growers and dealers in the
principal potato growing sections OF
the United States with regard TO the

result OF these investigations indicate
that about 4i2 per cent OF the crop
raised for market in 1909 remained in
the hands of growers. and 90 per
cent in the hands of interior deal
ers. A similar investigation last year
showed that 32.5 per cent of the crop
raised for market in 1908 was in the
hands of growers and ll.3 per cent
in the hands Of interior dealers on

Potato Outlook for Spring of 1910.

growers in the South received very re-
muneratiye prices for their product,
When the southern crop came upon
the market last season. old potatoes
were selling in Boston fer over $l.00
per bushel in carload lots. The quo
tatons for them In New York In
February Of last year ranged from
$i.75 to $500 per Dbl AT present
$i.75 os the highes market quotation.
From the present Indications, It would
seem very hkcN that the southern
crop will be In much lighter demand
the coming season. than u was last
year. The southern growers. Their"
fore can hardly antipicipate that when
their crop reaches the market this
year and comes in competitor with a
plentiful supply Of old potatoes. the
returns will be as large as they were
last season. Although there is al
WAYS a considerable demand for new
potatoes, still the abundance or
scarcity of old stock viii control TO
= large extent the market pr.ce of the
new. It would hardly seem wise for
southern growers to conclude that be
cause early pOtotoes brought such
high prices last year that similar re-
turns will be received for them this
season. Supply and demand contror

tatoes the same as they do other pro
duce. and the acreage throughout the
South should be determined from year
to year by the quantity of old pota-
toes likely to be available for market
purposes when their crop will be
ready for shipment The indications
are that there will still be a consid
cradle stock of last years potatoes in
the market when the southern crop
is ready to dig, and growers in the
South would do wei 10 consider this
when planting their potato acreage

$4,000 IN 10 MINUTES, TOWARD DEBT

Then came 10 subscriptions of $500

tributed. the total. of $4,000 was pledg
ed before the close of the service so
that next Sunday the pastor expects to

CHRIST'S TRIUMPH
OVER THE GRAVE
Rev. C. L. Overstreet Says
There Is No Day to Com
pare With Easter.

An Easter audience that filled both
the auditorium and Sabbath school room
assembled at the First Presbyterian
church Sunday morning. The sermon.
music and decorations were all in har-
mony with the sacred day. Mrs. Paryin
WHITE sang THE Resurrection" and the
choir sang "Sanctus-" Easter lilies,
southern smilax. and palms added TO the
Joy of the occasion
The pastor. Rev. c. L. Overstreet
preached from the text in Acts az. 1S:
And he preached Jesus and the resur-
rection.'' He said in part:
There is no day in all the year TO
compare with the glad Easter day. No
day that gives to the minister such
inspiration and to the people such an
uplift as they listen to the fact and doc
trine of the resurrection. This was
PauPs constant theme and inspiration.
Everywhere ne went he preached the
resurrection. for he believed that with
out this fact our hope. is vain. He could
have discussed literature and art, elo-
quence and philosophy better than any
man in his day but when the old phi
losophers Of the first century asked
What will this babbler say he preach

Rev. Mr.. Overstreet said that to
preach the Resurrection of Christ is to
preach subject that occupies the larg-
est and most important place in all the
New Testament scriptures. and that all
the gospel writers give accounts each.

IT IS A DISTINCTIVE ACE IN WHICH
WE LIVE. SAYSDR. WRIGHT To TEMPT LARS
IN THE CHURCHES.

But the age itself is marked enough;
it is unlike all others:
''First-It is an age of great power
over material conditions. In former
general tons men were either terrified
by nature, Indifferent to nature, or
friendly to nature.
"Second-In no way has the result
of this triumph shown itself moSe
clearly than in what we regard as the
second striking feature which the age
presents, viz, the highly developed
intercommunication between all parts
of the world
..Third-It is a natural step from this
condition of our time to the next, which
we here note, viz, a widely spread
individualism.
"Fourth-From all this it follows.
rily, that the spirit of our time
will be materialistic, alike in its in
tellectual inquiries and in its conduct
and action.
The age being such it requires an
inspiration of a moral kind which may
direct its energies and control it's evil
tendencies.

ages must walk; his the teaching by
which they are schooled; his the pres

Christ must be apprehended by the
age in his historical, reality, especially
in the all important and miraculous
aspect of his life and character, viz:
Last night of the savior in the sepul

VICTORY FOLLOWS
THE SURRENDER
CrucifiXion and Resurrec-
ton Symbols of Chris
tan Experience.

The service at the First Christian
church Sunday morning was one OF I'M
usual interest The attendance at both
Sunday school and church services was
large and the music was an interesting
and attractive feature
The pastor, P. J. Rice, delivered a
sermon from the text Rom. 6:5. For
if we have become united with Him in
the likeness of His death, we
shall be also = in likeness Of His
resurrection" Rev. Mr. Rice said:
Easter is the souls high day
Faith. hope and expectation find new
assets for themselves with each recur-
ring Eastertide. The text links in a
particular way the two extremes OF
Christ's experience. the crucifixion and
the resurrection. and declares them to
be the symbols of every truly Christian
experience
There was a necessary sequence in
the events of Christ's life. Each step
calls for the next succeeding one and
determines its character. His baptism
preceded his temptation and raised the
issues which were settled in the
wilderness. The temptation determined
the character of his messiaship and this
in turn determined his death. His
death was the price he paid for being
true TO GOQ purposes ana lQediS anu
determined the nature of his triumph.
Crucifixion preceded the resurrection
and was necessary to it.
There must similar sequence in
the experiences of our lives. Easter can
have no Significance to one who has
not been to Calvary. Accepting Christ
means. adopting his program Some

decide whether we shall live for bread.

But as surely as Friday was before
Easter so surely does Easter follow Fri

of us are only the surrender of the

1t is the only way TO peace and bless

the evening and several persons were
