Hon. E. D. Cavett.
Improvement.

Last week in an open letter to the
people the above named distinguished
son of Noxubee announced his candida
cy for reelection 30 the legislature.
In this issue of the Beacon there ap-
pears another letter from his largely
political in it's nature. The Beacon's
opinion of Mr.. Cavett and its position
in the present political situation in
Mississippi are both we'll known and
scarcely need reiteration. 1t thinks
powerfully we'll of MI. Cavett and
mighty little of his position in some
particulars. However, as the voters
themselves are to decide the matters
in which Mr.. Cavett and this paper
differ, the Beacon can frankly, as it is
doing, endorse Mr.. Cavett' S candidacy.
He has represented Noxubee county
with distinction and credit and made a
most useful legislator. He is known
all over the state as a man of the high
est honor and integrity, with the full
courage of his convictions, and with
plenty of good sound judgment and
sense. His public and private services
to his county entitIe him to a continual
ton of the honors it has heretofore
given him.

does for the green pastures" is
row referred to by him as a
"A brave old Federal soldier,
whose heart beat in sympathy for
the boys in gray?"
And besides, if Judge Neville
committed a sin so great as to
cause his summary dismissal from
a position which he had held so
long and so we'll, solely because
he took the DISPOSITIONS of the
two conductors who handled the
pass to and from ,Gulfport, one
of whom, by the way, stated that
Coy. Vardaman signed the pass
in his presence; then what mnst
be said Of the man who, while
governor of the state used the
pass in violation of law and then
proceeded to forget all about it?

CIVIC
LEAGUE.

A preliminary meeting looking
toward a permanent organization
of the Macon Civic Improvement
League was held this week. Much
interest has been manifested, es-
pecially by the ladies, and there is
little doubt but that a strong and
vigorous local society will be form
ed in Macon. 1t will belong to
the federation Of similar organiza-
tions that exist in every city OF
Macon's size and larger.
The object of the league will be
to work for the better execution
and observance of the sanitary
laws of the state and city, and for
the cleanliness and Identification
of Macon The streets should be
kept free of garbage and waste,
unsightly objects be removed or
remodeIed, vacant lots cleaned up
and the spirit Of civic improve
ment generally be inculcated and
put in active operation.
1t is a most excellent movement
deserving the active and really en-
thusiastic support of every loyal
citizen. The city authorities will
heartily cooperate, and what the
good ladies haze done for the Gem
etery will be p%aralleled in Macon
TO the city's great advantage and
Improvement.

The Big Rain.
given him

One of the heaviest precipitation Of
rain ever happening here occurred
Tuesday morning. Between 8 and IL
o'clock in the forenoon AGO inches of
rain fell according to the guage of Lo-
cal Weather Carleton. The streets were
flooded, the river rose to 10 or Is feet
in a few hours and all water courses
were far out of their banks. In some
portions of the area visited by the
downfall much damage was done prin-
cipally in the way of washing the soil
away. The low grounds lately plowed
up were in many localities washed
down to the hard ground below the
plowed depth.
Messrs. Jim Sparkman and Walton
Martin had a narrow escape from
drowning. TheD safely crossed Plum
creek on the lower Cooksville road, but
in crossing the slough on the far side
of the creek, both in their buggies,
were swept off the road. Both cut their
horses partially loose from the buggies,
and Mr.. Sportsman horse broke loose
and swan to safety, but Mr.. Martins
horse was down. The gentlemen climb
ed trees and were later rescued in a
boat.
Bridges all over this section are
washed away. The area Of the heavy
rainfall was 4 Or 5 miles wide. east and
west of Macon, and north aud south ex =
tended from here to Columbus.

Milk and Mail Cars
will Continue to Run

John A. Fraser, business agent OF
the local street railway mems union
told The Times, Wednesday morning
that over 1000 conductors and motor.
men voted on the strike proposition
In the secret meeting. and that all but
one Endorsed the plan. There are up
wards OF LOO men In the union, but
all didn't vote. There are about 2,40C
motormen and conductors in the ser
vice. but upwards OF TOO are men who
have not been long enough on the
lines to become connected with the
union. All the men, however, are
standing by the union.
I'VE have the lines completely tied
up" said Mr.. Fraser mot a car is
running for the conveyance OF pas.
,sengers. We are not going to inter,
fere with the milk cars, however; we
have told the crews operating then,
to continue at their posts. We don't
want to stop the transportation OF
anything which Is for the sustenance
OF the public. We shall also allow
the mail cars to run.
AS a matter OF fact, we don't in.
tend to bother the ID. u. r. cars al
all. We're a peaceful organization
and we don't want trouble of any
kind. We have the cars at stand
still and we feel sure they will stay
that way until we get what we're
after. Thus far, the d. u. r. has
made us no offer since the strike was
declared. We are standing pat and
intend to maintain that attitude"
M Eraaor waa told that Mr
Brooks, general-manager of the ID. u
r.. represented that the men had nc
right to strike until w. ID. Mahon
president Of the international union
returned to the city and gave them
permission to 60 out
When Mr.. Mahon left the city, he
placed the matter Of strike In oul
hands. telling US to simply follow ouI
constitution, said Mr.. Fraser. "Ws
think that we've done that"

Listen TO Proctor
Knett Settle Strike

Proctor Knott Owens, hero OF null
titudinous political battles, regrets
sincerely that he wasn't electedmayor
OF Detroit last fall. According to the
Proctor KBnott viewpoint. the street
railway strike would be settled al
ready, IL he were in the mayors chair.
There was a regretful note In Mr..
Owens voice, Wednesday morning,
when he discussed the matter and
spoke of what might have been.
"Pll tell you what I'd do" sad
Owens. IF were mayor Of Detroit
I'd settle this thing In Ave minutes.
I'd go to the ID. u. R and order them
to nut their cars out on the street
Then I'd go to the men and tell them
to get on the cars and run tnem-
'Td tell them to collect fares AND
I'd have them turn the money into
the cit ytreasury. I'd pay the men
what they are asking. The city
wouldn't owe the d. u. R. one cent
What profits there were after the
men had been paid OF, would be kept
as indemnity against the company
for using our streets.
'T want to say this: that IL the "
II. r. cannot manage to run It's cars
on the streets of the city, why, the
CITY ought to be able to run them.
