| Two hundred and fifty thousand
dollars and a site, besides other in
ducements which cannot be equalied
by any other city is any section of
Mississippi, is what Hattiesburg is
Offering as an inducement for the 10.
cation of the Mississippi Normal Col
lege, the bid, signed by Mr.. H. A.
Camp, the city's authorized represen-
tative, having been formally present
! ed to the board of trustees of the in
stitution at a meeting held in Jack
I, son yesterday.
This proposal was backed by oral
| argument, and was the elimination
of one of the most intensely interest
ing campaigns ever experienced in
the history of this city, and which will
forever stand as 0onument to the
industry, energy and patriotism of its
citizens.
When the legislature at it's last ses-
sion passed a bill creating a state
normal college for teachers, to be To-
Gated in the city which would offer
the best inducements, Mayor ]. D..
Donald, realizing that this was an in
stitution greatly to be desired and emf
nently worthy of consideration, went
before the legislature and succeeded
in securing the passage of a bill
which would permit Hattiesburg to
issue bonds for the purpose of secur-
ing the school. Later, other cities in
the state, following Hattiesburg's ex-
ample, got busy with the legislature
and had general law enacted which
would permit not only all cities in
the state, but all counties also, to
float bonds for this purpose.
City And County Act.
At the first session of the city coun-
Gil, held after the law had been en-
acted, a resolution for the issuance of
$57,500 in bonds was unanimously
adopted. Later, the board of super
visors of Forrest county adopted
similar resolution, making a total of
$115,000 which the city and county
proposed to donate to the school.
This action by the two. bodies was
made public.
Later, at an executive session of the
city council, it was decided to increase
the city bond issue to $150,000, and
the board of supervisors took similar
action, raising the amount which the
county proposed to donate to $100, 900,
making total of $25O,O00. For pru-
Dental reasons, that their competitors
might not know what they were ''up
against" these latter actions were not |
to the world, but were ia.

Was No Opposition.
During this canvass it was learned
that the people of the city and county !
wanted the college, felt that they
were entitled to it and were able to
pay for 1t, and not the slightest SEM
blance of opposition to the bond issue
was discovered. In adopting orders
the bond issues, the city
council and the board of supervisors
Knew that they were complying with

would be supported by them in their

The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1910-09-03

South Mississippi, each conducting its
campaign in its own way.
How well Hattiesburg succeeded in
its preliminary work was evidenced
by the formal proposition submitted
to the trustees yesterday, which pro-
posal, it is generally conceded, was as
conservative as possible, and yet be
la winner.
Other Considerations.
In addition to the financial consid-
Grafton, which when fully Investigated
and closely considered will be found
to be considerably better than
that of either of the other con-
testants, the numerous advantages of
this city, as explained to the trustees,
were items which could not be over
looked by any body of men who are
interested in the welfare of the staff
and its institutions.
In submitting their proposition yes
terday, the local committee rendered
to the trustees, besides the guarantee
of $250,O00, their choice of four sites
for the school. The first being the
South Mississippi College property,
and so acres of land, rendered by Mr..
w. s. F. Tatum, and another offer by
Mr.. Tatum of tract of land embrac-
ing $50 acres, the proceeds of the sale
of which, above a certain specified
amount to go to the college, Mr.. T. J.
Nixon offered a site of sixty acres,
while Mr.. H. A. Camp, A. A. Montague
and others rendered 80 acres of land
on Hardy street. These were four
separate and distinct tenders of sites,
and it was left with the trustees to
decide which would be the most de-
sirable.
Laurel's Proposition.
Laurers proposition was to donate
$230,000, site and a school to be used
for practice work by the normal, the
value Of the latter being placed at
$4,000. This last item was embodied
in Laurels formal bid, which was re-
sponsible for the report that Hatties-
burg was $4,000 behind her sister
city. This impression, however, was
erroneous, because of the fact that
also rendered to the trus- |
tees a choice of two schools for this |
the value of either of which |
will exceed S25,O00. This tender, ver-
bal as 1t was, having been made and !
repeated, and used by Prof. Woodley |
n his argument, before the written
bids were opened.
The training school proposition
amounts to this: Hattiesburg offers
o turn over to the trustees OF the nor
nal one Of it's schools to be used for
practice work by the normal instruc-
ors. In other words. the state is to
upply the teachers for one of the
1attiesburg schools without expense
o the city and conduct the school un-
Ter the direction and supervision of
he superintendent Of the city schools,
which would mean considerable saw
ng to the city In teachers salaries.

HISTORICAL AND AUTHENTIC.

American history is shown in ami
mated pictures with Buffalo Bills
Wild West and Pawnee Bills Far
East and the student or reader will
find an abundance of interesting ma
terial unfolded before them in the
guise of entertainment. The historic
battle scenes, based upon fact; the
scenes of western lawlessness; the
Indian attacks, and other incidents
depicting life on the plains will af-
ford interesting topics of study. 1t
must be remembered, too, that in
several particulars the Wild West is
presenting factors which will in a
few years be impossible to repro
duce; the American Indian, the last
of their race; the buffalo, erstwhile
monarch Of the plains, now almost
extinct; western range horses, and
the American cowboy. The fencing
of the cattle ranges is fast dispens-
ing with the necessity for cowboys
and horses in the vast numbers which
were required when the plains were
boundless." In this decade we are
seeing the last distinct attributes of
a declining era; the old west is now
no more; its "reminiscences are al
ready few, and shortly will have pass
ed entirely from view, as does the
old scout, Buffalo Bill, on this his
final visit to our city.

WHERE IS MY BOY TONIGHT?

The worst habit that boys can fall

their lot in slippery places when at

are there counteracted and nullified.
They learn nothing that is good-but
everything that is bad. The boys who
spend their evenings in the sacred
precincts of home, with good books
for their companions are the future
hope of this republic; they will fill
our legislative and congressional
halls, and sit in judgment upon men
and measures, while the boys who
run the streets will fill our peniten.

DARING HoRsEMANsHIP.

Bucking bronchos will cavort and
disport themselves with Buffalo Bills
Wild West and Pawnee Bills Far
East, ridden by fearless cowboys, who
know just how to handle them. Wes-
tern horses in a state of subjugation
will also be a feature of Col. Cody's
exhibition. Ray Thompson's trained
mustangs and bronchos will perform
feats of high school" experiences
with the ease and grace of the thor
ouhbred. Daring Craftsmanship of
many styles will be seen with the
Wild West, ranging from the primi-
tive experiences Of the Indian to the
reckless daring of the Russian Co.'S
sack, military riders of all nations
and the renowned studs of Rhoda
Royals and Ray Thompson's trained
equines, never before seen in one
arena.

CROP YIELDS BETTER.

Reports of crop conditions through

ally agreed that those fields that are
being cut are yielding heavier grain
than expected and of splendid quality
Reports from Oliver and Mercer coun
ty say that the crop will be fairly
good. In the western part Of the
state the crops are normal, and some
fine yields are expected. Along the
Missouri slope the fields are turn

things considered the conditions in
the state are better than it was
thought possible few weeks ago.
The price for all farm produce will
be high and this will help.
