ABOUT THE CLARK AMENDMENT

We hope the Clark amendment to the tariff bill placing a tax of
zoe per bale on future" deals in cotton where the actual cotton is
not delivered, will not be lost in the conference between the Senate
and the House. Congress has made a pretense SO many times IN
the past of doing real good things and then at last let some slip be
made whereby all was lost, that we shall not be surprised at what
ever happens.
Those opposed to stopping future" deals are organized and are
fighting hard because it pays them to do SO" 1t is singularly
strange that every future buyer in the country is so solicitous
about what a great injury the stopping of future dealing will in
hct upon the farmer. OF course all these cotton men are in the
cotton business for the purpose of seeing that the farmer gets the
proper value for his cotton! What they make out of buying the
farmers cotton of course is only a secondary matter! What
a sacrifice all these future dealers have been making all these days
while the farmer has eked out a mere living and they have been pill
ing up the dough! The big cotton buyer, who is also a big future"
dealer, is making big money. Count them up over the country and
see if this is not true. They can hardly be blamed. They are hui
man. They are looking after their own nest. Custom and law has
permitted what they are doing and hence those who have allowed it
are more censurable than they. But it is time to stop.
The world mus, have the farmers cotton. Like every other &C.
topus the Government has disturbed in its plundering, everything
that is possible will be done for a while to make the farmer forget
tina. the futures dealer has been forced to abandon his haunts, but
in due time business will adjust itself to the new conditions and in
the end the farmer will be the beneficiary.
The extraction of the aching tooth brings pain and there is a
dread of submitting to the dentist, but when the tooth has been
treated or is gone. so has the pain and there is gladness in the heart
of the patient. There is always to be expected disarrangement in
changing from an old custom, but progress demands a transition
The public mind has been Anticipated quite long enough on this
matter and we are glad that the light is breaking in.

Stay On Your Feet.
Taking Calomel Means Staying Home
For the Day-Take Dodson's Liver
Tone and Save a Days Work.

If an attack of constipation or bill
iousness hits you, there's no need to
take a dose of calomeI and spend at
least a day getting over the effects of
it. The Corner Drug Store sells the
liver tonic, Dodson's Liver Tone, that
takes the place of calomel and starts a
lazy liver without any bad after-effect.
Dodson's Liver Tone does all the good
that calomel ever did, yet it is abso-
lutely harmless to young people and
old. 1t is a pleasant tasting vegetable
liquid that will relieve constipation,
sour stomach or other troubles that go
along with n lazy liver, without re-
striction or diet. Yon don't leave off
any of the things you regularly do
when you take Dodson's Liver Tone.
The Corner Drug Store formerly
Hughes') sells Dodson's Liver Tone
and gives it a strong personal guaran-
tee. They say, "A large bottle of
Dodson's Liver Tone sells for Soc, and
we will hand any person back his Soc If
he tries a bottle and doesn't say that it
does all that calomel ever does and
does it pleasantly. Get the genuine
Dodson's Liver Tone and if you are not
pleased with it we will give you your
money back with a SMILE"

The good roads movement is getting a powerful impetus all
over the country, We are especially pleased to note that there is al
demand almost from one end of the state to the other tor a Mem
phis- New Orleans highway. This movement had its initiation in the
brain of Grenadas good citizen, W. B. Hoffa, a man who lays him
self out for the promotion of every public enterprise and who is ever
alert to encourage and foster every movement intended for the bet
terment of the general public. There is nothing that comes SO close
to the needs and the prosperity of the individual citizen of Missis-
sippi as the question of good roads. They increase land values;
thew add to the charm of country life and are money savers from
every viewpoint. The Memphis-New Orleans highway must touch
Grenada-to run it elsewhere would not follow the route indicated
by nature. By way of Grenada is the shortest route and the best
from every point of view.

hoped the ladies of the fair district will be as generous and that they
will take S much interest in making cakes, jenies. cordials, as well
as needlework, for this department., as heretofore, and that their
number will be greatly increased. The premium list is attractive
and covers almost everything that could be considered as a part of
this department.

hog Buryins Question !
Was a Live Topic

Atlanta, Aug. H. How deep
a dead Ihog ought to be buried,
and whether it should be buried
face downward, were two serious
subjects of consideration in the
house when the hog cholera bill
came up for passage.
There was strenuous debate as
to how deep public welfare re-
quired cholera-infected hog to
be buried. Two of the amend
ments which were not passed
provided a metal coffin and a slab
of marble to mark the porker's
last resting place.

why not take a stroll over to the

You'll have more fun than a lit

Weddings in the While House

1t has been hoped by many of
Miss Wilson's friends that she
might have selected an earlier
date for her marriage than No.
vember, and that the ceremony
might be performed in the pic
turesque and historic south
grounds of the white house. This
would have been an ideal setting
for a wedding, as was demonstra-
ted when the former President
and Mrs. Taft celebrated their
silver wedding a anniversary by a
garden fete at night. The grounds
were festooned in electric lights
and arc lights placed at various
intervals sufficient to insure
illumination. There were be-
tween 5000 and 5000 guests
who roamed through the
grounds after greeting Mr.. and
Mrs. Taft, and then through the
mansion to view some of the
wonderful gifts which were sent
from all parts of the world

New Plan Put to Phoenix
and Duncan on Main Line

yon, between Winkleman and San
Carols, and will complete it's new
transcontinental line with road
from Queen Creek station to
Silver City, N. NJ, is a well
founded rumor now afioat in
Phoenix.
Several circumstances tend to
show that the rumor has a basis
fact. For one thing, a surveying
party is now working between
Queen Creek and Superior. This
party has been in the field for
some time and it has been gener-
ally understood that lines were
being run for branch that would
reach only to Superior.
But that according to the latest
information, is not the intention.
Superior is not to be the terminus
of the line, bntImerely one station.
The road is to be built on east of
Globe, up thru the ella valley and
thence to Silver City. There it
will connect with the branch
which leaves the S. P. main line
at Deming.
No unusual difficulties are in
the way of building a road from
Queen Creek to Superior, which
is only twenty miles distant. It is
understood that Southern Pacific
surveyors have found that a line
can be built on easy grades all
the way to Silver City. Certainly
railroads have been built thru
much more difficult country.
Thatcher, Solomonville and
Duncan will be on the new road.
Morenci and Clifton will be only
a few miles north.
Fors'years the Southern Pacific
and ArizonaEastean people have
had under consideration the
building of a branch from
Florence to Superior. Such a
branch would afford transporta-
tion facilities to one of the rich
est mining sections in the world.
The old Silver King, Magma,
Ajax, La Coronado and Reymert
are only few of the properties
in that section. The Calumet &
Arizona company is developing a
group at Superior. The Magma
produces the richest copper ore
in the world, which is now freight
ed to Florence at great expense.
An extension of the road on
thru the Gila Valley would open
a farming district as important
in it's way as is the Superior
country.
Queen Creek is between Mesa
and Florence. When the propos-
ed line is completed between
Queen Creek and Silver City, the
Southern Pacific main line trains
will run over that route, pass
thru Phoenix and Buckeye. and
continue on to Yuma over line
surveyed over a year ago be-
tween the Hassayampa and the
Colorado.
Various circumstas, it isnce
stated, have caused the Southern
Pacific to give up the idea of
building road thru the Gila box
canyon, to connect the present
terminus of the P. & E. branch
with the Globe branch at San
Carlos. The land owners in the
Casa Grande valley, who want to
use the canyon for a water stor-
age reservoir, have been making
a determined fight against the
granting of a right of way for a
railroad.
Had the box canyon road been
built, the main line trains would
have left the Southern Pacific at
Bowie and reached Phoenix thru
San Carlos, Winkleman and
Florence.

GIRL HIDES AWAY II DAYS
manded by Her Guardian for Stay
ing Out Late to Film Shows.

Seattle, Wash.-Hidden under q
bundle Of dirty quilts in the dark and
little-used basement Of her home for
seventeen days, while her guardians
and the police searched everywhere
for her, Velma Jones, fourteen years
old, was dragged from her hiding
place, a shadow Of her former self, a
gaunt and pitiful sight. The girl had
dropped from 152 pounds to 126
pounds. Despite her experience, she
is not penitent and sulks and re-
fuses to be comforted.
Crawling from her hiding place
when the hand of her guardian, w. G.
WILDER, of 1888 Brooklyn avenue,
raised the quilt, the girl was SO weak
that she scarcely could walk. She
had hidden away when reprimanded
for staying out late to a moving pic
ture show.

ONE TRICK OF THE TRADE
Old Meat Dealers Method Of Getting
Reputation for Giving Very
Good Weight.

The very latest trick of the trade
was taught to the young butcher by
the marketman who gave him his first
employment. The old dealer pointed
to trays of beef lamb and pork trim
mings beneath the counter.
when customers ask to have all
the waste that has been cut from their
own meat wrapped up with their or
der be sure to put in a few of these
trimmings besides," he said. "Most al
ways they want the scraps sent home
SO they can weigh the whole business
and find out whether they are getting
full weight or not Eno6gh extra
pieces to tip the scales half an ounce
beyond the supposed weight won't
hurt anybody and will give us good
name
Shortly after that the new clerk
heard one frugal housewife say to an
other: ooh, why don't you trade at
Blanks? He gives such good measure;
often almost an ounce more than you
pay for"
The clerk smiled.
