Senator BriStOw Gets a Jolt.

A Progressive, and therefore a pure
patriot. the pursuit which Senator Bris-
tow has made of Secretary Bryan on
that salary matter has shone with a
virtue all its own.-or, rather, the pur-
suit did shine until letter was pro-
duced which the Senator had sent to
Senator Long in 1906, asking for a job
on the Panama Canal Commission.
Mr.. Bristow does not deny that the
letter is genuine. As an example of
eagerness for highsalaried place, it
shows that even those who are ready
to point out the frailties of others may
themselves have an appetite for the
soft sinecures which so many federal
jobs offer. Evidently Mr.. Bristow
deemed the Job sinecure and if it was
not one, the letter makes plain blk
pose to make it such, for asry CNe'

months. could hold it and live in
Kansas, being there at least half my
time, and when the fight got hot

The unhorsing of Senator Bristow is
rather funny. 1t shows, at least, that
Mr.. Bryan is not a sinner above all
men, ard that some of his holier- than
thou enemies had better be careful or
they will ride to a fall along with the
Kansas man. N. o. States.

The Cotton CrOD.

THERE'S but one verdict about the
cotton crop of this section and that is,
it has deteriorated very greatly within
the past month. This has been caused
by the continued drouth. There has not
been good rain in this section since
about May l. The old statement that
"the month of August makes or un-
makes cotton CROP" seems to have
been fully realized this year. The out
look was most gratifying about Aug. /,
and it was not until towards the mid
die of the month that the deteriora-
ton began to be fully realized. OF
course it is difficult even now to place
an estimate on the crop, as compared
with a normal crop, in this section.
What is true of this immediate Sec
ton appears to be true of almost the
entire cotton belt. The Commercial
Appeals report published last Monday
from its correspondents all over the
cotton section warrants the conclusion
that the crop will not be $4,000, ,0O(
bales.
Old corn, also, in this vicinity is 60
ing to be exceedingly short, owing tt
the drouth.

Had the unfortunate young man risen
after first going down, John Huntingdon

The telephone soon brought large
crowd to the lake from town and the
hodv was recovered about forty min

signs of life.
The deceased was a son of A. S.

from the Grenada public schools with
distinction in 1912 and spent the last
session at some preparatory school,
Onlv few minutes before going to
the lake on the fatal afternoon he had
received from the State University a
scholarship and the future was bright
and buoyant to him. He was boy OF
exemplary habits and the community
looked upon him as one of its young
men who would acquit himself well ir

and the picture is doubly sad when the
old father, now alone, his head gray

". R. Graniham for City Treasurer

The Sentinel is authorized to place
the name of w. R. Grantham before
the voters of the city of Grenada for
the office of city treasurer. He is the
first to officially launch a campaign for
an office to be decided at the next eec-
ton. Mr.. Grantham is an honest, hard
working man and his candidacy de-
serves the impartial consideration Of
the voters of the town. That he would
make an upright official and render an
honest accounting of whatever funds
were committed to him, goes without
saying. Mr.. Grantham will no doubt
make personal appeal to the electo-
rate.
