PRIMARY IN WEST FELICIANA.

The parish election, the official re-
turns of which appear in another
column, brought a few surprises,
but most results had been remarkabl
forecasted by the politically astute.
The parish had been put down as IN

vailed. Tuesday, this glorious rec

there were so much to confuse the
issue, even in the minds of some
of our best citizens.

the mayor, who, fearing to face them
himself covered in his office and is
sued the order by which two men were
shot to death and 13 others injured.
Justice is never accomplished by
mob violence; two wrongs do not make
right. The action of the mob is no
less indefensible than the action of
the mayor, but the point is this The
American people will not brook inter
ference with free press, and will, if
they think it necessary fight for it.
The other story, appears on the
front page of today's Star-Mirror in
the letter from the Garfield Land
company which tells of 10 new set
tiers arriving in the Palouse country
on one day as the result of one copy
of the Daily Star-Mirror sent by mail
TO a Missouri man, for only few
months.
That shows the constructive, the
building up power of daily news
paper.
The Star Mirror hasn't tried to reg
ulate politics or morals. 1t hasn't tried
to settle national questions, or arbi-
trate in international difficulties. 1t
has applied itself to building up La
tab county and the Palouse country,
and it is a most gratifying fact that
it's work has been the sort that counts.
The press has power: that cannot be
gainsaid. Properly applied that power
is uplifting, constructive, uplifting;
used it results in anarchy
and abuse. The Mirror feels
that it has chosen the better part.

HOTEL FIGHT MAY
CAUSE ALPINE WAR

ROME, Mar. $3.50 bitter is the
rivalry between the Swiss and Italian
hotel keepers that the Italians are en-
deavoring to stir up a war between the
two countries. Several days ago the
Italian hotel keepers in convention
went on record as favoring a war. A
few days later came the announcement
that the Swiss were to establish a
chain Of Notifications on the frontier.
Then the Italian sbonifaces'' threw
out their chests and exclaimed with
pride:
We have frightened Switzerland
They are afraid we will go to war with
them" But regardless of the heated
denunciations which emanate from the
business rivals, the rest of the pop
ulation of the two countries refuses to
become excited and looks upon the
chickering's with no little amusement.
Outside of the manufacture of milk
chocolate, Switzerland's chief source
of revenue is from tourists Travel
ers also keep the wolf from the door
for thousands of Italians and it is over
the patronage of the globe-trotters that
the hotel men have fallen out The
Italians can say the Swiss are engag-
ed in worldwide campaign to
frighten tourists away from this coun-
try. In the recent cholera epidemic in

ENOCH ARDEN
WANTS HIS WIFE

DENVER, Mar. 28.-The romance of
Frances E. Boone's marriage to Chas.
NJ Hardee on November IA, 1910, has
been shattered by the return Of her
first husband, who disappeared sixteen
years ago and was supposed to be
dead. Suit has been filed in the coun-
ty court by Hardee for the annulment
of their marriage.
Louis Boone disappeared sixteen
years ago and Mrs. Boone was in
formed that he was dead. Hardee, a
conductor on the Burlington rail- DAD,
laid siege to the widows heart. The
long absence of her husband and the
report that he was dead caused her to
believe that she was free, and her mar
rage to Hardee followed.
Boone, who is said to be a de-
scendant of Daniel Boone, read an an
nouncement of his wife's marriage.
He at once came to Denver and made
it. known that he still was among the
living. The wife, who had technically
become a bigamist, left her second
husband. Boone declined to give any
account of his whereabouts during the
sixteen years absence and has since
remained in Denver. Mrs. Boone
Hardee is having the papers prepared
in a suit for divorce against her first
husband. She declares that she and
Hardee will not remarry after the
granting of divorce from her first
husband.

THE BETTER PART.

The power of the press cannot be
denied, and it is one of the privileges
and rewards of newspaper work-al-
belt, it pays no bills-that the editor
can, and does, influence the commun-
ity in which he lives. Accompanying
this privilege, however, there is a SER
icus duty. The editor has a civic and
moral obligation to apply that power
in channels for the common good.
The press can, and must be free, but
to continue So it must be, in its own
humble sphere a soldier of the COM
mon good. The country paper, cannot
WELD an extensive influence in a ma
tional struggle, but it can, and should,
apply itself to the solution of local
problems. In so far as it does SO il
is successful.
No better illustration of the power
of a country newspaper have come to
our notice in a long time than two
items in the days news. The most
exciting and sensational is the rioting
at Rock Island, Ill.
In Rock Island, it seems the mayor
and a newspaper were at logger-heads
in regard to a question of administra
ton 1t is probable they both honest
ly differed. The editor wrote
scathing arraignment of the mayor,
because, as the dispatches carry the
news, the mayor had inaugurated GER
tain reforms in the moral conditions OF
the city. The mayor called on the
editor and gave him a beating.
1t was the newspapers right, of ne
costly, to differ with the executive on
a policy of administration, if it saw
fit On the other hand it was the
mayors sworn duty to do as he saw
lit in the regulation of vice, and the
Star-Mirror would not be construed as
defending the editor and his editorial.
However, the mayor did exceed his
authority and was acting entirely i'm
properly when he chose to settle the
matter with fists. That however, can
be excused.
This was followed, however, by an
attempt by the mayor to suppress the
entire edition of the newspaper con-
tanning the article. And that action,
was indefensible.
The people of Rock Island objected.
When the police refused to permit
the delivery of papers to subscribers,
the subscribers, maddened mob,
went to the office, stormed it, and
over 5000 copies of the paper we're
distributed before the police finally
dispersed the crowd, which was not
accomplished until several arrests
were made.
The Infatuated people stormed about
the streets, attempted to storm the
jail and were finally fired upon by the |
police, by the express command of |
