Jackson, Miss, Feb. "a gentle
man who was late in paying his taxes,
has applied to Governor Noel to issue
an order that he can vote. But just
how the governor can give him relief
in the matter is a question that is an
swered by the law. There is no re-
lief for this man, as he failed to pay
his taxes till March A, and was, conse-
quently, a delinquent to the extent that
he is disqualified as a voter.
There are thousands of delinquents
in Mississippi. The lines have never
been drawn tightly on them before,
but they will be this year, and it is
said several thousand names will be
scratched off the registration lists
as a result of failure to pay taxes later
than Feb. l.

Fertile CITY IS
A FERTILE fraud
WRITES TEXAN
Says That Travelling Agent Puts Too
Much Color in His
Descriptions.

Believing that he owes duty to the
public to puncture the roseate picture
of the wonderful Texas townsite Fer
tile City as painted by the travelling
agents who are visiting various sec
tions of the South, Wiley H. Elliott
writes from Grand Sabine, Tex, an in
teresting description of the alleged
town site as seen at first hand.
Facts Not Fancy.
Mr.. Elliott, after calling attention
to the visit of an agent to Hattiesburg
on Dec. l, and the giving away here
of 35 lots-the only charge being 1915
and S6,75 for recording fees, goes on
to say:
The Short Line railroad does not
run two passenger trains a day-it
may some day when all these lots
have ten-story brick buildings on them.
And it might run limited" ones, too.
The only limit now is in the makeup
of the train now perated-usually one
coach for passengers and a eombina-
tion car for baggage and passengers.
There are two engines in use-when
not in the shops,
The hub factory operated here two
years ago-not recently. One family
lives in the place.
"And the country is well watered,
assure you. 1t is very open prairie
too open, in fact. The railroad has
a trestle 12 feet high and a mile Ions
to enable the trains to find Fertile
City when it rains,
THE land. in my judgment, might
be worth $1,000 for the 400 acres il
the tract. There may be all opening
on Sept, s, but it seems hardly posi-
BILE.
"The people here say the public
shoGld know the facts. One lady came
here to improve her town lots. She
went home on the next train-the mad
dest woman you ever saw.
From all that has been said and
from the facts, it is rather a fertile
fraud"

SENATOR HEBRON
Opens Fight FOR
]. X. VARDAMAN
SPEAKS TO LARGE AUDIENCE AT
COURT HOUSE WEDNESDAY
NIGHT ON THE ISSUES.
VARDAMAN WILL CARRY STATE
Making Tour At His Own Expense As
Protest Against Work of
Caucus.
VARDAMAN WILL CARRY STATE

Hon. John L. Hebron, of Greenville,
Miss, addressed large and repre-
sentative audience at the court house
Wednesday night, advocating the elec-
tion of Ex-Governor Vardaman to the
United States senate. In the audi
ence were number of ladies, and all
gave the closest attention to a speech
Of over two hours.
Mr.. Hebron was introduced by
J. R. Tally, who stated that it
was a time-honored custom for
people to assemble and be ad-
dressed on issues of the day in which
they are deeply interested. The po-
litical life of the speaker was reviewed
and the declaration made that he was
man of the people, reared on a farm
and still farmer, as we'll as a lawyer
of note, successful merchant, and a
man who was active while in the state
legislature in making many laws of
great benefit to the people.
ADDRESS OF Mr.. Hebron.
! Mr.. Hebron expressed his apprecia-
tion of the kind things said about him
in the introduction, and said he was
delighted to meet such large and
cultured audience, in South Mississip-
pts leading city. He was glad to look
into the faces of the good people of
Forrest county because, he said he
had been told that the county will
give Mr.. Vardaman a large majority.
Predicted Vardaman Victory.
Mr.. Hebron stated that Vardamans S
election is certain and that he will
carry at least seventy counties in the
state, and that the Junior Senator
will carry but two counties-Washing-
ton and Leflore-and that if Alexan-
der, the other Caucus Twin" carries
a single county he does not know
where it is on the map. He declared
that Mr.. Alexander's home county will
go against him, and that Mr. Varda-
man will get 1900 out of 1900 votes in
Jackson, after having lived there only
seven years. when MIR. Alexander has
resided IN the city for twenty years.
In his opinion Mr.. Vardaman has
more loyal supporters in the state
| than any man who has been before the
r. people during the last ten years. He
