There are not few who are proud to

they were better players than some
of the varsity men of other years.
There are other scrubs who bemoan
the fact that they were not In college

ruthersville and we're convinced that
the fairminded people of that city de-
sired to see fair play and desired that
the people of Pemiscot county be
permitted to vote on the question.
1t does not seem pertinent to the
people of Pemiscot county, at this
time, that the "drys" of Caruthers-
vile should become unduly interested
in the county election, in as much as
Charlottesville has saloons and the
county has none, and if saloons are a
benefit to Charlottesville as city,
they would also be benefit to the
other cities and towns of the county.
Aside from this, up to the present,
the petitioners have relieved the coun-
ty from all expense, having paid the
expense for the adjourned term, and
also the cost of advertising the elec-
tion. In the last instance, the Argus
may pretend to take some otfense, as
it has the contract for the county
printing, and the advertisement was
ordered in the Democrat. But no Of
fense was intended. as the dates of is
sue of the Argus would not permit Of
proper and legal advertisement, and
for this reason the petitioners paid
the advertising bill, $32.76.
With these remarks, it would be our
pleasure to submit the cause to the
people, to be decided by them at the
polls, and perhaps we might be able
to do so, were it not for certain Ca
ruthersville influences that will be
brought to bear to hold the county
dry and Charlottesville wet We hope,
however, that everything will pass off
peaceably and quietly and that no i'll
feeling will be engendered. And, hon
estly, we see no occasion for i'll feel
ing, as each American citizen is en-
titled to and should have his right of
opinion and to vote.
Much has been said about the Hay
ii Herald entering fight, for or
against the saloons, but up to the
present we have not done so, and we
may not take issue. 1t is quite SER
ious proposition for newspaper to
make fight on either side. Up to the
present we have only contended that
the people be permitted to vote on the
question, as they have a right to do,
which we still contend and will contin-
ne to contend, and we are perfectly
willing to abide by TIE decision of the
people, at the polls. But even if we
so desired, the editor of this paper is
not physically able to go into such
contest.

THE LOCAL OPTION ELECTION.

THE LOCAL OPTION ELECTION.
While this article might appear on
the front puge, as a news item, under
flaring headlines, we prefer to contine
it to modest editorial, as there are
certain points more vital than the
mere statement of a fact of news.
Saturday the county court met in
adjourned term to receive and hear
the petitioners and their representa-
tives, asking for the submission of the
local option question to the people, to
be voted upon on June IA.
Many good people attended the
court, and after arguments were heard
pro and con, the court saw no law to
the contrary, and ordered the election,
for the l4th of June, and on that day
the people of Pemiscot county will
| vote on whether or not the saloons
shall return.
SO the question is open, and the
people must decide.
Now, in connection with the action
of the county court in ordering this
election, it has been claimed that the
county court has no legal au-
thority, AT THIS TINE, to order the
election, and some citizens of Caruth-
ersville appeared before the court,
with their attorney, b. A. Mckay,
and offered their protest, but failed to
produce the law bearing out
their contention. And along these
lines, the Pemiscot Argus, in its last
issue, said:
'They had little difficulty in secur-
ing the signatures FOR VARIOUS
REASONS, some signing becaus they
upheld the CAUSE of the saloon, 9TH
ers because they were JEALOUS

not be LEG ALLY acted upon for the
reason that the full four years ha6

No reply whatever is necessary tc
the above statements of the Argus, be
cause we do not consider that any true
statements were made, and that thu

ing their day in court without sub
stantiating same, have no furthel

Attorneys Jetfress and Mayes Ap
peared for the petitioners, and thei
arguments were clear and convincing
Attorney Guffy was also present, a
an advisor of the petitioners, and al
the representative business men O
Hayti and some from other parts o
the county were there to look afte
the interests of the petitioners.
The petitioners met with cordia
reception among their friends at Ca
