Democrats Demand Consistency.

The Democratic nominee for
governor declared himself
most emphatically in favor of
removing the penal institutions
of this State from politics and
against the Third House" prior
to his nomination. and when
Senator James B. McCreary
made this promise to the people
there was every reason to be-
lieve he was absolutely sincere
and that the promise would be
faithfully carried out. The
Republican party later incorpor
ated the same declaration in its
platform and on August Is, the
Democrats of Kentucky will
assemble in Louisville to adopt
their State platform. There are
a number Of questions so thor
oughly agreed upon that there
will be no objection to their
adoption and amongst them
should be a vigorous condemnat-
ion of the Third House," COM
posed of lobbyists and FOUNDERS
of all political compilations, and
a strong declaration in favor of
removing the penal institutions
from politics. Upon this quest

Prison Commissioners and their
associates of the Third House"

heavily upon them and their

get right down to bedrock and
work out a system or habit in
study that will make those pu-
pills powers in the land.
1t isn't quantity of subjects
that makes education. it is quail
ty of the facts studied, and the
thoroughness with which they
are mastered.
There is a wide spread demand
for the teaching OF agriculture in
the rural schools and colleges.
That is as it should be, but hold
on a bit. Where are the teachers
coming from who can safely
handle these new subjects?
Never yet has the country school
been so well supplied with CON-
petent teachers who can handle
these studies. How then expect
much real teaching on subjects
of which these town high
school girls have no knowledge?
1t is going to take some time to
prepare teachers for this work.
1t is not enough that they be
given agricultural textbooks.
They should be fitted for the
work in special schools. or from
actual experience. or a short
course in agriculture perhaps,
but with this new demand upon
their preparation will there sufii-
cent salaries TO attract competent
teachers to the rural schools?
School consolidation is the one
thing that will help solve the
problem of better rural schools.
but the real solution of the sit
uation as it exists today is in TAX
ing enough personal interest
in the school TO seethat il it is
made attractive, comfortable,
sanitary as TO heat ventilation
and then insist on having a good
teacher and then above all a
good school. and pay well for
that kind. Ii is just the same

there are other places that make
IL worth while for preacher and

look for cheapest preacher and
expect much pulpit eloquence or
pastoral ability.
IL is a high tax the citizens of
a district pay when they spend
school funds for the cheapest
school teacher they can get. bet

have something for the money.
TIE future of your boys and
girls depends upon the start they
get in the public schools. II full

THE LESSON FROM 1T

DUT for the carrying of pistols the tragedy of last Friday night,
- which resulted in sending one man to a premature grave and the
placing OF four others in the county Jail, would not have been enacted.
1t is more than singular in the face of such horrifying examples
as this which are taking place throughout the land almost every
day, that the public will shut its eyes to the necessity of compelling
the absolute abandonment of the deadly concealed pistol. Behind
it turks murder, manslaughter, jals and penitentiar,es, the making of
widows, fatherless children, ruined lives, wrecked futures and posi-
bilties. The CONCEALED PISTOL is NOT A NECESSITY. 1t is a menace
to the one who carries it. 1t is the remains of the savage instincts
of man that prompts the carrying of one. 1t increases the bravado
OF the bully and prompts insults where none otherwise would be Of
fered. Iii not carried to keep the peace. The good citizen pre-
fers to walk around-to avoid a difficulty, rather than to seek one.
Seriously, we are getting on more dangerous grounds. The law
abiding man has little chance for his life when insulted and attacked
by a pistol toter. "He reached for his hip pocket is the defense
offered, although there was no pistol there, when a pistol toter
shoots and kills a law:abiding man.
The people of Mississippi do not want the law rigdly enforced.
They have not reached the point where they want pistol toting stop
ped; if they had, it would be stopped. But we believe they are near
ing that point where surea and drastic remedies will be applied. One
of the shortest routes to enforcing the ant,pstol law would be to
give the experimenting officer one-half of the fine imposed by the
court. 70
What we have said is not intended to prejudice the cause of Ell
Their side in the Misterton tragedy. We do not know whether any
of the participants in that sorrowful affair were habitual pistol toters,
but regardless of that, we are advised that both the dead and the
living were armed, which was one time too much, and we dare say
that if all parties could undo what has been done, the records would
show no killing at Will Spruilrs. But that is the terrible part of it.
What these pistols do no human power can undo.
The christian religion, the hope of prosperous business and the
future of our commonwealth, say the pistol must GO. How long
will the people fold their hands and sit and wait for the going, or
will they as good soldiers, true and tried men, get up and see
that it goes at once?

ROOSEVELT TO BE IN JACKSON

rXPREsIDENT THEODORE ROOSEVELT is to be the guest
L of the state at Jackson, March II, and we hope that he will be
extended a welcome in keeping with the dignity OF the state anc
one that is due a citizen of this great country, who has been Presi
dent. Roosevelt is not only a national character, but is an interna
'tional figure, and is perhaps the most popular man in the world to-
day. We do not endorse many things in politics for which he
stands, but. taken as a whole, his face is set towards the rising sur
and he has wrought good for the country. We are not honoring our
selves in giving him a Mississippi welcome except in so far as we re-
fleet on ourselves when we re not courteous to visitors and
when we do not display decent manners to the stranger that is
within our gates.
If Roosevelt is not patriotic, then the record and his own word:
belle him. If he has not given repeated evidences of the most
friendly spirit towards the South, then some of our leading Southern
statesmen are guilty of falsehood. We repeat that. measured as
whole, we believe Teddy is all right.
Mississippi is the greatest state in the Union. Our forefather.
have left us a great heritage, and let no reflection be cast upon those
who are responsible for our being and who taught us, by laying our
selves open to the charge OF boorishness and that we are unwilling
to gladly welcome a character that has been honored by the creates
nations of the world, outside of the United States. Yes, we are gat
Roosevelt is coming and while we will perhaps learn something from
him, he will also learn something from us.
We feel that we will be safe in promising Mr.. Roosevelt tn

If This Medicine Does Not Ben
eft You Pay Nothing.

A physician who made a speciality of
stomach troubles, particularly dyspep-
sia, after years of study perfected the
formula from which Rexall's Dyspep-
STA Tablets are made.
Our experience with Rexall Dyspep-
STA Tablets leads US to believe them to
be the greatest remedy known for the
relief of acute Indigestion and chronic
dyspepsia. Their ingredients are sooth-
ing and healing to the inflamed -mem-
branes of the stomach. They are rich
in pepsin, n of the greatest digestive
aids known to medicine. The relief
they afford is almost immediate. Their
use with persistency and regularity for
a short time brings about a cessation
of the pains caused by stomach disor-
ders.
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets will insure
healthy appetite, aid digestion and pro-
mote nutrition. As evidence of our
sincere faith in Rexall Dyspepsia Tab
let's, we ask you to try them at our
risk. If they do not give you entire

CONSUMPTION AND FIRES

F a voice in our midst should cry out, "Fire! Fire!" most of us
l would run to our doors and very probably to where the flames
were in progress, for the purpose of rendering any possible aid. Not
one house in fifty burns and perhaps not one person in several thous-
and is consumed in flames. Yet we are much concerned about fires.
Something far more destructive than fires is abroad in the land.
1t is more tantalizng in its ravages and more certain of its victims
than fires; still we give little thought as to how to avoid its effects
when assaled by it. We speak of consumption. It'll a terrible dis
ease. Statistics show that one-thrd of the people between the ages
of fifteen and sixty die of it and onefourth of the people between
twenty and fifty years of age are carried to their graves because of it.
DR. W. S. feathers is touring the state in the interest of health
and sanitation and is endeavoring to arouse the people to the danger
of consumption and at the same time give explicit and almost GER
tain rules and regulations whereby it can be avoided. A vast ma
ionty of humanity have been exposed to the dreadful disease and
are in imminent danger of its ravages. Expectoration is one of the
chief sources of propagaing consumption. Science emphasizes the
dangers that arise from careless splitting, perhaps more than any
other connected with the transmission of consumption.
Grenada is not by any means FIRE J. from this vicious practice.
