BILE. as to promise we'll for the other
branches Of industry. The important
rate decision bring to an end a per-
iod Of uncertainty that had prevailed
since the spring Of 1910. Their final
outcome should be an expans on OF
industrial and mercantile activity
beneficial to carriers and shippers

vet there is an increase in transac-

Accompanying the decline in raw cot

smpetus to curtail production has
been increased
The 4D<twear market continues

Whiskey at the Capitol.

ION the authority of seven repu-
able and well-known men, some or
whom are Legislators, charge that
the rooms adjoining the Hall of
itatives, and which were
under the control of State officer,
who was one of Major Vardaman's
most active managers, were hibit-
l.ually usad as a gathering place
during the caucus for Major Var
daman's supporters, and that with
his knowledge intoxicating liquors
were freely dispensed in these
rooms, and sometimes by himself,
and that at one time the porter of
the capitol was found removing
twenty-nine or thirty empty wine
and whiskey bottles from these
rooms. On the authority of repu-
table and sworn witnesses before
that committee, | charge that those
in control Of Major Vardaman's
headquarters and rooms adjoining
habitualiy kept whiskey and other
intoxicants to be dispensed among
members of the legislature and that
well-known citizen of Jackson
stayed in and about these rooms
/ and freely dispensed the liqors.
Now, I have no fear that Major Var
daman will deny my assertion as
to the absence of liquors in my
headquarters if as to his own head
quarters and management he denies
my charges I will give the names
of the witnesses, most of whom were
then and are now his own warm
supporters. The voters are entitled
to know the truth. To follow the
words of Major Vardaman, which
with him are a mere phrase and not
rule of action, I say let the 'bles-
sed sunlight of publicity shine in "
