The Grenada sentinel. [volume] (Grenada, Miss.) 1868-1955, 1913-09-19
DOES GREA.4 IDA WANT
CO.M.NISSION GOTERN.NENT2

Are the people who pay the taxes in Grenada and who support
the city satisfied with the administration OF the affairs of the city?
for the dollars it expends IS a similar institution would under
private control?
If majority of the people ire prepared to answer these ques-
ton negatively, then the proposition confronts them: How can we
get better results? The Sentinel is not prepared to say that better
business results can be gotten under another form of administering
the ctys affairs, but it stands to reason that where there are fewer
people charged with meeting a duty that it is easisr to fix RESPONSE
bnity and that more can be obtained for the expenditure OF IA dollar.
The point is to have some particular person responsible for a specif-
ic duty. Can this be done under any form of municipal govern
ment2 The answer is that the nearest approach to this is a commits
sion form Of government, and the legislative acts of 1912, as shown
in Chapter 100 of The Laws of 1912" was designed to place thu.
direction of municipal governments on a business basis. The act
referred to provides for a mayor and two commissioners. Ten per
cent Of the qualified electors of the town can present a petition to
the city council and the council is required to order an election
within 80 or 90 days to ascertain whether or not the people want a
commission form Of government. If the electorate of the town
CURED to be holden not less than ten days or more than thirty days
before the time fixed for the election to choose a mayor and two
commissioners, which is the first Tuesday in December. The off
GERS elected assume their duties the first Monday in January, fol-
lowing, which would thereby vacate the terms of all the present
officers.
We have discussed the proposition with quite a large number of
our citizens, many OF them being our largest taxpayers, and they
have expressed themselves a S being in favor OF d commission form
of government. They take this position because it puts the con-
duct OF the business of the town more in a concrete form and be
cause OF the further fact that wherever 1t has been tried the people
are pleased.
Running any government should be a business proposition and
the people are entitled to the most they can get for their money
To say that the municipal government OF Grenada is being conduct
ed without due regard to business rules is no reflection on the pres
ent or any other administration-they are doing about as well as the
average number of men similarly situated.
Certainly we would be no worse off with a commission form o
government and, after it is tried, If we desired to go back to the
present form of government the pathway is open just as it is t
change from the present form.

ABOUT WHAT T.ARDAM.AN WILL DO.

The Grenada Sentinel, one of the Governors organs, is still very
much exercised about what position Senator Vardaman will take
in the next gubernatorial race. The evident purpose is to destroy

to its friends as result of disccrd.-Poplarvile Free Press.
The Free Press really knows better than to say the Sentinel is

and it should not try to deceive its readers. We think we know
Vardaman's attitude. The editor of the Free Press seems to be
"grannying" just now for the Issue, published at Jackson, and the
Issue appears to be somewhat in the condition of the stll-born child.

ETHICS CLAIMED FOR CROOKS.

The editor of the Kinds County Gazette says mo man opposes
Brewer turning up crooks, but it is his outrageously unfair, partial
methods of doing it that we 10 strenuously oppose. It's unny
what lame excuses people sometimes make. Its funny, too, how
many friends crooks have. We have known officers to work weeks
and months trying to get the evidence on blind-tiger COOKS; and
when they had gotten it we have heard men say, nobody IS IN FAVOR
of bootlegsing or blind-igers: but am strenuousy opposed to the
unfair methods the police employ" These very sensitive citizens
no doubt expect all public officials who are guilty OF misfeasance IN
office to become conscience stricken and hunt the Governor and turn
themselves up. Or, at worst, for the Governor to go to the ofhcials
and say, "Mister, have my suspicious about you; now be a NICE
crook and tell ME all about it." That would be a nice way. The
objection TO playing the game that way is that the crooks won
play it tar. There is no doubt that a mans family and birth and
saves many a mar from being a crook; but it does not
to make much difference among crooks; family. birth, environ
high social standing. if a mans a crook he's a crook tor all
that. and its foolish to talk about unfair methods in rounding up a
crook. If he is not a crook, then of course the jury is to blame tor
saving that he is. The Governor, the encouragement, the Judge
merely presented the case.-iatiesburg Daily News.

The democrats in Congress should see that there is no adjourn

McAdoo, has shown the New York bankers that there are others be-
sides them The New York bunch did their best to pull Oft a panic,
but McAdoos action in sending money to Southern bankers caused
a miscarriage of their plans. We have long thought that it was a

farmers have had excellent success in
growing practically anything of the
ordinary crop nature, but in New Mex
leo and west Texas dry farming has
been mostly confined to forage crops.
There have been some farmers, how
ever, who have made excellent sue
cesses Of growing a variety of articles.
some Of them claSsed as the tenderer
garden and farm plants. Several ex-
periments in New Mexico, with a very
light rainfall, have been successful in
growing fruits without irrigation.
The most profitable method of dry
farming has been growing forage for
cattle feed-cOmbining cattle raising
and dry farming, and making the two
successful where either alone would
have been a failure. It is this that has
been developed so extensively and so
rapidly in west Texas.
Irrigation Possibilities
The irrigation possibilities of the re-
gion around Ell PasO are unlimited. The
Catalogues, for example, that are
shipped from the AIesilla valley, bring
the highest prices in the eastern mar
1et and are famed for their fine flavor.
The same applies to the apples of the
Roswell region and the grapes of the
FL Paso valley, and to various other
products that grow exceptionally well
under the peculiarly favorable soil and
climatic conditions OF this section.

Big Reduction Allowed.
A reduction of as much as so per cent
in some instances was obtained on ma
chinery, iron and steel into the BiSbee-
Douglas, Globe, Miami and Clifton
Morenci districts last year. Recently a
reduction was secured on sashes, doors
and other forest products into the Salt
river valley, equal to the California
rates and making it possible for FL
PaSO manufacturers and 1ObDerS to en-
ter this field on an equal footing with
CalifOrnians. A reduction on these
products into the GlObe-Miami district
was also granted
The rate on canned salmon from Pu-
get sound points into FL Paso has been
reduced from Is cents up. The rate
ing points was reduced cents per 100
pounds. There have also been reduc-
lions in class rates on the Santa Fe
railroad and on the Prescott and PhOe-
nix railway in Arizona.
Freight Schedules Improved.

Freight Rates Extremely Favorable

n. as few cities in the country are
- fortunate enough to have afford
ed them. The Ell Paso jobber is in a
position to compete in the matter Of
rates with any Of the large jobbing cen
ters Of the country and in a great many
instances is favored largely by the
present rates, thus enabling them to Sc
cure and hold territory that is abso-
lutely non-competitive. This has been
brought about during the past few
months through hard and persistent
work on the part Of the traffic bureau
OF the Ell Paso Chamber of commerce.
Every jobbing point as well as every
manufacturing center must look to its
freight rates for protection in its bust
