A CHAMPION or THE STATES VITAL
INTERESTS.

A new editor graces the force of
the Union Advocate published at
Jackson in the interests of the Farm
ers Union of this state. T. w. Car
ter is the new inkslinger, and he is
also president of that organization.
He it is too that's to lecture here
Monday next in behalf of his order.
In his salatatory he says: The IN
ion Advocate has no friends to re-
ward, but stands always for those
things that are of vital interest to
all OF the people of Mississippi. We
shall in the future as in the past
speak out in no uncertain terms upon
all questions that are of interest to
the people of Mississippi; in fact, we
hope to mold the sentiment that will
ultimately place labor upon the dig
nified plane that is its natural heri-
tage." In the moulding of that SEN
timent, at which the Advocate has
truly already made rapid strides, we
trust its promulgators. will ever re-
member that there is difference be-
tween educating the people to dig
nify' labor and to Deity" same. It's
going to the latter extreme that has
kicked up so much trouble in late
years, in American society. Howev-
er, our Mississippi Unionists, at
least of agricultural habits, have so
far been seemingly guileless along
this line we believe.

The Aberdeen Examiner tritely
observes that the Legislature has
acted wisely IN its disposition to wipe
out the preparatory departments
from the three great educational in
situations of the state. The Herald
believes with all it's soul that the

repair to a nearby city, for such
training thev have fully mas
tered common school or elemep tary

lege life. It's the most economical,
the most sensible and by far the most
satisfactory course to pursue, and
just to the pupil, the parent and the

Daddy's Bedtime
n. The Living
NTOTV- Stars OF
The Ocean

A vELYN had been telling Jack and daddy of the funny little sea animal
whose empty house the fshman had placed in his window that aay
SIT looks just like q star, only it is brown" Evelyn explained.
"oh, yesi that was a starnsh. What you saw was not Mt STAR
hshs house, but his skeleton.
"Fhshermen don't like stardshes very well These little sea animals are
very fond Of shell FISH and are the oysters worst enemies.
"Ewarms Of them are often found squirming about on the ocean bottom
near oyster beds When the starhsh fnds an oyster that suits 1t the animal
turns its stomach inside out and over the oyster Then it draws the stomach
in again through its mouth, which is placed in the middle Of the underside OF
the body. When the oyster opens its shell the staFfsh sucks IL out throws
the empty shell out of its mouth and probably goes OF to hunt another oyster,
Fishermen say that thousands OF dollars worth Of oysters are eaten BY ta
sarhsh every year LII
"The starhsh has tubeHke feet on the undersde Of its arms or rays. 10
can travel owe the ocean bed very fast when 1t takes q notion, but 1t - e a.
rather lazy animal The fsis little eyes are also at the end Of the arms.
When the starhsh has Eve arms, as the common ones have then the Gsh has
i've eyes. Some sarfshes have ten or even more arms, with an eye at the
end of each.
"The thingt that Evelyn saw in the fshman's window was only the rough
skeleton If the smrnsh, which had been dried in the sun When they are
dead the flesh, which Is of many pretty coors, fades away. and all that is lea
is the brown skin. Dead starhsh are often washed up by the waves and may
be found on the seashore -
zone Of the oldest members of the starfsh family is the brittle star ~
for the brittle star drops apart lasvfng only the pieces Of his body in the net
II these are thrown back into the sea they viii float on La the water, eacn
separate arm to become q separate starhsh
"Ycu see, the sarhsh like other sea animals of their family are able ia
grow one or more arms where one has been torn on Sometimes p animal
simply casts of one of these parts. Very likely the loss o a limb causes the
animal no pain and very little Inconvenience
$50 when a fshermaR catches a starash he Is very foolish TO cut the AMI
NAL to pieces and throw it out Of the boat into the waterf or d different parts
only grow to be so many different starhsh and that many more enemies ION

CONTRASTING DELEGATES.

N0Fth nakotans watched the contests
before the republican national con
vention last week because that feature
OF the work for Roosevelt was under
the personal direction of .Ormsby Nc
Harg, a former North Daketaa, To
the outsider it appears that Mr.. Nc
Harg rather overdid things in this in
stance, as he did in the famous James
town convention several years ago..
There were something over ESQ con
tests, some Of which were decided in
favor Of Colonel Roosevelt in the ma
tional committee. But after the COM
mittee quit there were still 235 that
McHarg wanted seated. When the
Roosevelt supporters finally got down
to business they pared this number
down to seyenty-odd. These were all
they thought were legitimate and
could stand any show.
MeHaTg had somewhere over $50
more than I'VE the Roosevelt adher-
ents didn't regard as worthy. 1t looks
like he took in too much territory.
r1aa ne neeh less gTasplng and falrer
Roosevelt would have stood a better
show.
The Taft supporters may have been
too high handed in their steam roller
methods-but most fair minded people
are confident Taft had a legitimate
majority. The supporters Of Roose-
welt tried to control the convention by
centesting delegations which were ie-
ultimately elected. They were mere
ly beaten at their own game,

MONDAY. JUNE "a, 1912.
A r N SHERMAN.

As was already a foregone conclu-
sion since the preliminary battles at
the Chicago convention President
Taft was renominated by the republic
cans. Vice President Sherman was
given similar honors.
The Roosevelt supporters hopelessly
defeated, sat in the convention, the
greater part of them refusing to vote.
There are few fair-minded men but
are convinced Taft had a legitimate
majority of the convention, BY all
rules Of the game he won the nomina-
tion. Some Of the steam roller meth
DDS may be depIered but they are part
of the game, a at present constituted.
Had the opposition the controlling
power its force would have been as
relentlessly used,
The wisdom Of the nomination of
either Taft or Roosevelt is another
question.
The possibility of electins Taft is
still another.
Much depends or the results Of the
dsrnoeFatie national convention in
Baltimore this wsek-and a great
deal more on hew much force the
Roosevelt third party movement will
gain.
Roosevelt has Ost standing with the
American people during the last four
OF i've months more rapidly than he
originally gained their good will. His
candidacy was regarded by many as
a violation Of the sacred traditions
against a third term. The bitterness
OF his personal campaign against Taft
and the intemperance of his Ian
guage alienated many former sup
porters. His personal management of
his campaign in Chicago and refusal
to abide by the results certainly have
not added to his popularity. People
like a ighter-but they want to see
the game played fstrIy-with no foul
ing.
The methods and actions of the
former president during the campaign
have been typically Reoseveltian and
few people are surprised at his bolt
and attempt to organize a new party.

c DELEGATES.

1t has always been customary to
say mean things about the negro dele
gates from southern states to the Ia
tionaI republican conventions. There
have been instances of the negroes
selling their votes. In the Chicago
convention, however, the negroes
stood hitched. They did less flip -iop-
ping than white delegates. The ne
groes get a lot Of eriticism-and much
of /. is deserved-but It must be con-
coded they were al loyal and square
at the Chicago convention as their
white brothers.
