"a The road laws have always
been unjust because the same

of the man who owns thousands

the man without property to re-

required of the neighbor who

IT'S NOW JUDGE ANDERSON.

The last day Of the session Of the
legislature, Senator Anderson resigned
as a member Of the Senate and was
appointed Associate Justice Of the SUI
preme Court by Governor Noel.
The selection Of Senator Anderson
will be received with approval by the
bar Of the state who recognize in him
a lawyer Of preeminent ability. Mr..
Anderson graduated from the law de-
partment Of the University of Mississip-
pi and was admitted to the bar and To-
Gated in Tupelo 20 years ago. For
several years he was alone in the prac-
tice but afterwards formed a co-part-
nership with Col. ". l. Clayton whose
daughter he married. This firm con
tinued for several years and enjoyed an
extensive practice. Later Mr.. Anderson
became dSSOCldtCQ Will tuC ldtC Oois -
A. Blair and in this co-partnership a
splendid practice was also enjoyed.
After the death of Col. Blair Mr.. Ander-
son and Mr.. c. P. Long became associa-
ted and for the past ten years an ex-
tensive practice has been done by the
firm.
Mr.. Anderson is possessed of a judic-
ial temperament and will distinguish
himself on the bench. He is a deep
thinker, a logical reasoner and possesses
a resourceful mind. His opinions will
be clear cut and the bench that has
been occupied by some of the most dis
tineuished jurists Of the country will
have honor reflected upon it by our
distinguished citizen.

of seafaring. for the reason that there
is an economical objection to letting
go of men who understand the habits
of the liquid freight.
The first thing the ship owners did
was to win the hearts of their crews
by the stomach route, Great care was
manifested in the selection of the
cooks and the cooks were provided
with the best that land flowing with
milk and honey can afford. The meals
served today on the average tanker
are infinitely better than the fare set
before the boarders at the average ho-
tel or the cabin passengers on the
average ocean liner. The wisdom of
this was demonstrated in one of the
big local companies not very long ago.
A new superintendent took charge. He
knew nothing of the early struggles
to hold the crews together. On look
ing over the accounts he was impressed
by the size of the item that represent
ed the cost of feeding the crews. It
was outrageous. He inquired from a
friend who was operating ordinary
freighters and learned that his friends
line fed its men for about half what
the oil company was paying. He issued
orders to the masters of all the ships
under his care that the cost of meals
must be cut in two. His orders We're
obeyed.
Taking a piece of paper he figured

to take his wife. and perhaps hts whole
family, for a voyage with him. This Is
regarded as a rare favor and Is one that
all concerned appreciate more perhaps
because of its infrequency.
A few years ago only those tnti-
mately connected with shipping knew

a similar message was received from a

scale of living had saved the company
the company had been compelled to
spend IS in railroad fares and other
costs in order to fiji the places of men
who had deserted at the first oppor-
tunity
The crews on that company's ships
are living high again.
The next thing the ship owners did
to make life at sea attractive was to
improve the living quarters for officers
and men. The result has been that no
class of sailormen are SO comfortably
housed as the men that man the tank
ers. The quarters on all the ships are
airy and comfortable, but the latest
expression in this direction is to be
found on board the new steamer J. A.

In bulk were still scarce enough TO at

for existence when personal choice was
no longer matter to be considered.

King oil has come into his own since
then. and today his navy hailing from
this port, IL anchored in full force,
would furnish a spectacle more impos-
ing from a commercial point OF view
than was the sight from a military
viewpoint when the Atlantic and Pacific
fleets thronged man Of war row. The
oil navy of today fills one of the largest
divisions in the worlds merchant ma

among fits units nearly 40 ocean going
vessels that carry the products Of the
California oil fields to every corner of
the Pacific, and then some.
The tanker Of today is the best found

and an intimate acquaintance with the

To the ship owner oil is a peculiarly

thing that does not happen in many
cases more than once year.
When the big oil companies first went
into the business of transporting their
products in bulk by water they found
great difficulty in keeping crews on
their ships. The sailorman is an easy
going soul in many respects, but he
does like TO be home once in a while.
In the oil business the stay in port is
frequently merely the fraction of day.
and the longer the voyage the greater
the hurry of the owner TO get the ship

motion that made it hard to keep officers
and men, and to overcome this diff
Guilty the owners Of tankers came to
the conclusion that in order to keep
men on their ships positions on tankers
