Civic League

The third meeting of the Civic
League was held at Mineral
Springs Hotel Thursday afternoon
March 9TH. All committees re-
ported favorably. The ladies have
planned great improvements for
the cemetery and town and we
hope to have the cooperation of
every one interested in building
up the town in any way. This
work has been needed in Iuka for
years and we hope to have en-
enlargement and help to make
Iuka place to be proud of in
stead of ashamed to have strang-
ers see our town as it now is. The
League especially needs YOU. help
in the cemetery work and we feel
that everyone will be interested in
that. The next meeting will be
held at the Leatherwood Hotel
March 22nd. A full attendance
is desired and the ladies OF the
town who have not joined are cor
daily invited to attend this meet

Texas has a man in Congress
named Dies who made remark.
able speech in the house a few
days since in which he assailed
Bryan and Roosevelt, CHASING
them with the McNamaras. This
is the first time this man Dies has
been heard from and we hope il
is the last. Evidently if Dies
dies it will be no loss to the Lone

THE cows LAMENT
By A Cows Friend


Old Pide and Mot Cherry, too,
Are going with their heads
hung down,
And sending up a pitiful moo, I"
To vote them freedom of the
town.
They think about the luscious
grass
That in the Park does grow
Their mouths water, but alas
They fear their cake is dough.
Not only grass, but water pure,
They from the springs do quaff
Twill undermine their health, sure
To drink from pool and branch.
Then the sweet fodder and corn,
They from the wagons steal,
They bat their eyes, shake
their horns,
And to their friends appeal.
oh! help us on the 10Th day
To retain Our vested rights,
To roam the streets and Park
by day &
And also in the nights"

The legislature has asked SEN
ator Percy to comply with his pre-
election promises and resign his
seat in the United States Senate.
At the time Mr. Peacy made these
promises he was confident of
being reelected by the people, be-
sides be no dougbt believed that
the making of the promises would
help him in the primary, but now
things are different. He realizes
that he is dead politically and that
he has nothing to gain by redeem
ing the promises and something
to lose-in fact a good deal to lose,
il you count a years salary as
Senator a good deal, which mos,
of us do therefore he will holc
on until March 4th, 1918. Their
he will retire to the oblivion which
awaits him.
