Jackson County's Exhibit

A telegram 10 the Biloxi Herald from
Jackson, Miss, says u the Jackson
county exhibit at the state fair:
Chief among the displays in tho big
agricultural building are those made by
individual farmers or by counties, and
AT the very head ana front Of the list
stands Jackson county, with Frank
Lewis, his brother, A. u. Lewis, and r.
M. DICK In charge. These gentlemen
have been here every year, and they
know how. Their gulf coast exhibit
has grown and improved year by year
until II now occupies one fourth OF the
agricultural building, and Mr.. Lewis
declares he will double his space next
year. lie Ia proving TO the world wha,
the coast counties can do, especially
Jackson county, In the way OF tropical
fruit, and hts great piles OF Satsums
oranges, grape fruit, lemons, grapes
persimmons bigger than ones fist
wines, jellies, preserves, cane, corn
cotton, oats, peanuts, vegetables and
hundreds Of other products OF the farm
cannot be excelled anywhere, and great
crowds line his section at all hours OF
the day and far into the night.

Sanitary Sewer Needed.

One Of the fundamental necessities
In building great community Is the
safeguarding OF the health OF its
people, Pascagoula is destined to be
great city, There can be no ques-
tlon on this point Even the grouchy
pessimist admits this although he
either begins or ends with an If"
The safeguarding Of the health OF
the present people and the thousands
OF people yet To come should be the
care aud thought OF the builders OF
this prospective great city, and the
first requisite is sanitary sewer,
Nothing worth while In this world
has ever been accomplished without
hardships and sacrifices Of some kind,
The present situation calls for some
slight inconveniences, OF course, but
q bond issue does not place the burden
on any particular generation, those
coming in the future who share In
the thoughtful foresight OF the
originators being called upon to pay
just share In the work undertaken
and completed for their benefit, and
they, In turn, carry on the evolution
OF advancement aud development by
similar bond issues that run into, TO
them, even, the future generations.

Worlds Base Ball Champions.

The Philadelphia American League
base ball team, under the superb
management OF Connie Mack, made a
walk away race OF the worlds series
In disappointed circles where the
Chicago Cubs were looked upon as
invincible attempts are being made
to belittle the wonderful work Of the
Athletics and the result is predicated
entirely on "the break OF luck in the
great sport, The truth OF the matter Is
that Connie Mack has builded a greater
and better base bail machine than
any other manager OF any time and
because he never paid $4,000 for a
base ball beauty the shock to the
form players" has been too great for
them TO completely recover. 1t was
generally admitted before the series
that the games were TO be battles OF
braius rather than Drawn, and "the
brains OF base ballh have been found
tn rest exclusively In the perfectly
poised head OF the modest and re-
firing manager OF the Athletics. Re
gcnerousl Give Connie Mack full
measure Of the great credit due him
aud his long headed methods.

Influence of a Courageous and
Truthful Editor.

The following brief essay 10 the
last number OF the National Printer.
Journalist, applies with special force
in the opinion Of The Post, to the late
B. II. Hobbs, editor OF the Brookhaven
Leader:
Everybody who Is worth while In
this aye aud nation, loves an editor
who loves the truth, who is not only
fearless but aggressively courageous
In the championship OF the right, with
broadness Of view and clearness of
vision, free from egotism, seldshness,
prejudice, cant or Discrimination, clean
and conscious, with the highest pur-
est, most intelligent, patriotic, phil.
anthroplc idealism. The strength,
within the sphere of his Influence, of
such an editor, is above and mightier
than any earthly 'principality and
power and might and dominion. ~

Mr.. Percy's Pledge to the Leg.
Iature,

In his sophistical speech at Green.
vile, in which he referred to the
rumor that he would probably with.
draw from the senatorial race, Mr..
Percy said:
with those responsible for it, the
wish is probably father to the thought.
They either do not know me or they
have forgotten that pledged the leg.
stature of Mississippi, II God gave
me the health aud strength l would
preach the gospel Of safe and sane
democracy in every nook and corner
OF Mississippi"
Mr.. Percy Is correct in his assertion
that they do not know me-" and so,
no doubt, he is correct 10 his state.
ment that they have forgotten the
pledge he made to the legislature OF
Mississippi"
The people Of Mississippi, except a
small proportion, do not know Mr.
Percy, and the people care nothing
for his "pledge to the legislature. ;
Why was he making pledges to the
legislature anyhow? The Office OF
United States senator belongs to the
people OF the state, aud the recent
session Of the legislature infringed on
the right of the people when the small
and partly corrupt majority AFRO
gated to itself the power to elect a
senator 10 secret ballot caucus.
No doubt Mr.. Percy is very fond Of
the legislature, and also of Gov.
Noel.

State Fair A Success.

Advices from Jackson are to the
effect that the state fair, which
threw its doors wide open on Tues
day morning, presents the finest ex.
hibits ever gathered at similar show
before, The exhibits are larger, better
and more numerous than at any time
In the past, and the attendance dur
ing the early days was beyond the
expectations OF the management. The
attendance on the opening day was
the largest In the history OF the state
fairs. Jackson county exhibit, under
the direction OF Mr. Il. II. Lewis and
his able assistants, Is attracting an
encouragiugly large share OF attention.

toast:

TO save him from bankruptcy adver-
Use 10 his paper literally. To save
him from despair send him every item
OF news Of which you can yet hold.
10 save him from profanity write

early as possible. To save him from
