LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Old Soldiers, Attention!

MT. Editor: Kindly allow me just a. iIttle corner of your valuable paper to sound note of warning to old soldiers. their relatives and friends It is of great importance that every soldier cast his vote for the straight republi- can ticket in this state Make a cross In the circle at the head of the ticket heath the word republican and you will surely be right. Were it not for the danger of free trade and other democratic heresies, the fact that Wood row Wilson owes his nomination to southern voters who were told by him that Champ Clark, their favorite can didate, was a friend of pensions. Not only that, but Oscar Underwood. the leader of the democratic house, is an arch enemy of all soldiers bills, and worse still, Simeon Eben Baldwin, gov ernor of Connecticut, not only vetoed the $50 per year pension bill, but in his peculiar vindictive manner follow ed the law up until it was declared un- constitutional. Soldiers have nothing to expect from Wilson, Baldwin or Bryan F. Mahan.
 call your attention to a few news paper clippings from democratic pa- pers just after the passage of the Sher- wood bill. Read them carefully and consider when you do so that both Wilson and Baldwin are special friends of the democratic pension haters: Louisville Courier Journal, Dec. IA 1911.)
 We'll done, Oscar Underwood They told him he would destroy his chances for the presidency if he voted agains l the Sherwood pension grab, but ht was brave enough, nevertheless, tt vote against that iniquity. The dem. ocratic party would be in a mucl | stronger position today if so many of MT.

none more embarrassing than the pension graft.
 (Macon, Ga, News, Dec. IT. 19111 |
 An Oscar Underwood Cor any other democrat in the presidential chair would veto the Sherwood pension bill, There is heap in that.
 (Norfolk Virginian- Pilot. Dec. 13.1S11)
 The republicans have worked the old soldier cry until the pensioners, including deSerters, skulkers and their widows, are costing the taxpay- CTS exceeding the annual payment of the army while the war was going on. General Sherwood is playing politics. (Chattanooga, Tenn, News, Dec IA,
 1911.)
 That a majority of the democrats in the house of representatives have not lost all traces of assininity was shown when they passed the Sulloway bill, which would add $75, 900 ts our pension appropriations. It is credftable to the Tennessee delegation that they are generally found defend ing and preserving democratic ideals. (Memphis Commercial-Appeal, Dec.
 16. 1911.)
 In the country districts of some parts of the United States pension paying day is the great day. The fed eral pension is the ready money which enables man, if his wife works hard in the garden and does the cooking, to spend his time in likeness and be able to meet all the trains that pass by the railroad station. Sometimes a pension enables whole family to eke out an existence without the male members working.
 Disgusting, DisreputabIe Bounty
 Jumpers"
 The Richmond, Va, Times Dispatch, speaking of the democratic leadership of MT. Underwood, says that he twas unable to prevent the house from squandering $75.000,000 on a lot of dis gusting and disreputable bounty jump CTS, who entered the army for plunder and who have been realizing their widest dreams ever since the value of the old soldier vote began to be un- derstood
 Now, my soldier friends, is there not sufficient reason to halt ponder and look well at the prospects ahead, be- fore voting for any man for president or any other high office who thinks as the editors of the above quoted democratic papers think? Is 1t not, time also to consider the fact that vote for Chain and Debs in Conneeti- cut is a vote wasted. A vote for Roose- welt in Connecticut, no matter ihow much you honor, admire and respect him, no matter how strong your desire Is to see him president. no matter what you think of the Chicago convention, that vote for Roosevelt is one vote talk en away from. William Howard Taft, the man who signed the Sherwood. bill inside of an hour after its passage, in order that the surviving veterans, who are passing away by thousands month ly, should have the required relief in their old age. Vote for the party and men who have always been the sol diers' friends.

negotiated with foreign powers. And for the benefit of the suffragists might say that the franchise has been granted the women exclusively in republican states by majority re- publican vote. The disasters which followed in the wake of the last dem ocratic administration were many. Banks suspended, factories and mills closed, industries declined, and millions of men were thrown out of employ ment.
 The election of democratic presi- dent may mean return of the same conditions. A vote for Roosevelt Is a vote for Wilson.

WHAT FUNDS FROM SALE
OF RED CROSS CHRISTMAS
SEALS MAKE POSSIBLE

That every county shall provide a
hospital for the advanced cases, this
being most important not only from a
humane standpoint but from the selfish
standpoint of protection to ourselves
and others from this disease.
That every city in the state shall
provide for the following:
1st A free tuberculosis Dispen-
sary, where those unable to pay a
physician can be examined by an ex-
pert without charges.
2nd A visiting nurse, attached to
the Dispensary, to visit and help the
needy in their homes.
3rd. Proper and sufficient relief, l..
e., food, clothing, fuel, rent, etc, for
poor consumptives and their families.
4th. An out of doors camp for treat
ment of consumptives.
Because these things are not at pres
ent provided more than three thousand
die each year in Mississippi. But, ac-
cording to reports from headquarters
in Jackson, regarding the intense in
terest that is already being evinced by
towns throughout the state in the sale
of the Christmas Seals, it looks as
though Mississippians are waking up
to the necessity Of such provision.

MRS. MINNIE MADDERN FIsKE
MAKES CONTRACT TO POSE
FOR MOTION PICTURES.

(By Julia Murdoch, in Washington
Times.)
The announcement that Mrs. Min
ME Madden Fiske has entered into a
contract to pose for moving pictures
is of especial interest to theatergoers,
in view of the fact that there is, per-
haps, no other person on the Amer
lean stage who possesses in such
large measure the elements both of
actress and stage manager.
Mary Garden once watched her in
the wonderful scene in Salvation
Nell where, as the scrubwoman,
she sat holding her drunken lovers
head in her lap for fully ten minutes
without a word; almost without
motion Gradually one could watch
nothing else; one became absorbed in
the silent pathos of that dumb, silent,
sitting figure. After Miss Garden
had watched the actress almost
breathlessly she exclaimed: ooh, to
be able to do nothing like that"
The contract whereby Mrs. Fiske is
to pose for moving pictures was sign
ed on Saturday, when Daniel Froh-
man, manager of the Lyceum the
alter, New York, and managing direc-
tor of the prominent Motion Picture
Company, returned from Chicago,
bringing with him, after having COM
