TUPELO, MISS, AUG II, 1911
Mr.. PERCY WILL RESIGN.

In a statement issued follow
ing the announcement of the re-
suit of the primary of August l,
Senator Leroy Percy announced
his intention of resigning his
seat in the United States Senate
on the converting of the Legisla-
ture in January next. This an
nouncement came as no surprise
to those who knew Mr.. Percy
and understood his feelings
about the matter. 1t will be re-
called that last fall when Nh.
Percy challenged Major Varda-
man to submit the question of
the senatorship to the people
through a primary, Mr.. Percy
then stated that he would re-
sign his seat in the senate if the
people of the state expressed a
preference for Mr.. Vardaman
in the primary. We believe that
this has been Mr.. Percy's inten-
ton all along. though he has
never stated publicly his inten-
ton of resigning.
We feel that under existing
conditions that MI. Percy has
done the right thing. He feels
that the people prefer another
and he is too great man to hold
position under such circumstan-
ces. While he knows that there
is no faint upon his commission,
yet, he understands that the tri-
umph of the opposition places
him at a disadvantage as the
peoples representative e. This is
no time for men of the conser-
vative type that Mr.. Percy rep
resents. The type to which La
mar, George and Walthall be-
longed. The pendulum has
swung far away from this ele-
ment but when the reaction fol-
lows, as it is sure to do.
then the ability, craftsmanship
and valuable public services of
Leroy Percy will be recognized
and remembered. He is asyoung
man comparatively, and we
hope to see his life spared many
years to shed honor upon his ma
tive state.

PULLMAN THREATENS
 TO PUNISH BANKS
Charges That Banks Called Him a "Oirly Jew" and invited Him Into the Lobby--Banks Alleges That UI|man Took LiIIey Money and Threw Him Down

Hartford, March 29---Today's Hart ford CoM'ant says:
 Tke bitter feelings over the New Haven judgeship contest led to a wordy scrap at the Capitol yesterday morning between Judge Fillmore s. Banks, the Republican House leader, and Colonel Isaac M Ullrnan, the Re- publican leader of New Haven. The Colonel demanded Judge Banks SUD- port of Judge Mathewson and threat ened to punish him If he worked and voted for Judge Webb.
 An afternoon paper said that Col onel Ullrnan had heard that Judge Banks had said that ''Ullman had taken George L. I.illey money and had betrayed him., and that Colonel Ull- man had, taken Senator Brinsmade along as a witness and asked Judge Banks if he made the accusation. The story printed went on to say that Judge Banks told the Colonel to Ego to help and that the Colonel tarrded and repeated his question. Judge Banks, it was alleged, then called Colonel Ull- man a t'dirty Jew, and the Colonel then asked Judge Banks to come out into the lobby.
 Judge Banks said last night that, as a matter of fact, Colonel Ullman came to his seat in the House about

BRIDGEPORT DEMANDS THE
 REFERENDUM
Rep. Bent, Rep. Meltzer, Sen tors Paddock M'Neil and Donovan Declare Right of People to Veto Measures Passed by Their Servants--At- titude of Senator Bartlett Im- pOrtant
Especial to The Farmer.)


 Hartford, March 29.-There was no port delegation with respect to the referendum amendment to the chart CT of the city, the bill offered by Rep resentative W. w. Bent yesterday aft ernoon, when the bill was heard by the committee on cities and boroughs.
 Senators McNeil and Paddock and Representatives Bent and Meltzer made strong appeals for the bill. as did also Senator Donovan of Norwalk and Lynn w. Wilson.
 A committee of the Taxpayers League, consisting of s. E. Vincent. Hon. John J. Phelan, Jerome Orcutt and A.: w. Burritt appeared against the bill, urging that the people of Bridgeport ought not to be given the right to override charter amendments which would be forthcoming and which they declared had received the approval of the Taxpayers League, the Board of Trade and the Business Mems Association of Bridgeport Representative Bent and Represen- tative Meltzer brought out the fact that these organizations have favored bills which would create a debt of d million dollars against the property Of the people of Bridgeport, and argued that the league represented but a small portion of the property
 Mir. Bent made an able and ex- tended argument showing the history of the referendum, and maintained that the bill was in the direction of home rule for Bridgeport He denied the moral right of the legislature to inflict debt upon Bridgeport without consulting the wishes of the people of Bridgeport
 He quoted from statistics especially those from Oregon to show that a very large percentage of the total vote is cast upon questions and measures when they are submitted to the peo- pie.
 Senator Donovan said that Hart ford is the best governed city in the state. He said that Hartford enters upon no matter requiring an import ant change in civic policy, O. the ex- penditure of unusual sums of money without referring the matters to a vote of the people. MT. Phelan. speaking for the Tax dunn, but said if there is to be a ref erendum it should require a third of the entire registered vote to defeat a measure.
 Representative Meltzer virtually closed the hearing with a discussion of the proposed bond issue and a clear statement of the right of the voters to have the debt before them for approvai.
 The bill provides that hereafter no | amendment to the charter of Bridge port and no special act creating a debt shall become a law except with in 60 days after the final adjournment of the General Assembly by which it was passed. If within this period 15 per cent. of the voters petition for | the submission of any such special act or amendment it must be submit ted at the next succeeding election and will not then be effective unless approved by a majority of those vot- ing. Senator Bartlett is chairman of | the committee. His attitude upon this measure will have a potent effect upon it's future

 glad to see it coming. But let us hold the boys in our academic schools as long as we can. Some boys will have earn a living. They want to go to
 work; have got to get job. What kind of a job is there for a boy of 14 who will be better educated at 1s for life's work; for the work of a man? They have the stature and am- qualified for promotion. There should be some provision to enable these boys to learn, otherwise they will be- industrial tramps I think this Board of Trade will be a strong fea- ture in education. Let it systemfze, for instance, a plan for the streets of Stratford, which is bound to grow largely in population. Follow the ex- ample of Washington and Detroit and other western cities, and have plan for a town beautiful. Do as much as you can for this on Arbor Day. My
 motto for all is: Do not make the worst conspicuous-rnake the best pop- uIar"
 Rev. Dr. Packard in the absence of Stiles Judson, was asked to say a few words. He told how pleased he had been to live in Stratford for the past six years; he felt perfectly at home, and feared he might stay too long, unless asked to go away. He wished to be a member of the community, and do his part in strengthening and beautifying the town. The minister is an optimist, and he believed this is the feeling of the new Board of Trade. He urged the preservation of the pub- lie parks of Stratford, and said there ought to be good ground where the boys can play ball. He would like to have signs at the street corners. The main thing is to keep up live in- terest At a late hour the company dispersed.

Judge Banks said that several persons gath cred in the vicinity, hearing the con versatfon but he did not see Senator Br1nsmade among them. Judge Banks said that he would not say that he did not call Colonel UlIrnan "dfrty Jew but the latter certainly did not ask him to come into the lobby. He said that Colonel Ullr1an threatened to punish him if he did not vote for Judge Mathewson. He also said that he deeply resented any one not a member Of the House coming to him and trying by threats to influence his vote.
 Earlier in the morning, Judge Banks said he was talking with Fred L.

WATERBURY FIRE CHIEF ENDORSES
 HEAD OF B. F. D.
Says Chief Mooney is Right in Declaring Responsibility Too
 Much Divided

Waterbury. March 2S-Fdre Chief Snagg of this city, give his hearty accord to the views expressed by Fire Chief Mooney of Bridgeport, to the effect that there is too much division of responsibility in the regulation of fire risks, with a view to preventing such folocauets as the recent disaster in New York.
 Fire Chief Snagg declares that the Bridgeport chief hit the nail on the head in declaring that the laws of Connecticut ought to be changed so as to place all the powers for the regula- tion of fire risks upon one person, and hold him responsible if he fails to en- force the law. The division of au- thority between the State police. the local police, the fire marshal and the building inspectors makes evasion of the law. an easy matter.

ANNUAL SMOKER OF THE

The South End A. c. tore off their third annual smoker last evening at their rooms, 426 Main street. In the star bout, Austin Rice of New Lon don pummelled Billy Roach of Bos- ton all over the arena in six rounds; Young Dorando of the North End managed to stay four rounds with Dick Miller of the Mohican A. G.; while Young Hynes of this city thank ed Referee Jim Raleigh for keeping Young Mccarthy of the South End away from him. Raleigh stopped this latter bout after the first round as Hynes was badly outclossed
 Rice, an old timer, had an easy time with Roach, and could have put across the hay maker if hefso cared. Roach is a speedy youth with plenty of pluck and stamina but lacks gen. eralship. Rice led the way in every round. In the Miller-Dorando go, the former had the advantage from the start
