While few newspapers are managing to
shed some briny tears over the retirement of
old Joe Cannon from public life, to majority
his swan song was the sweetest political music
that has been waited along In some years.
Years ago the old man did some good work
Ia Congress, but his usefulness began TO wane
when he became speaker, and his bigoted OBJ
stinacy and unprogressveness contributed ma
terially to the defeat of the Republican party.
For our part we wish him no harm--he
brought about his own undoing. and we trust
that his declining days will be spent In peace.
That he has retired forever from the arena of
public life is cause for congratulation to the
whole country.

INMAN SLATON
shot BY negro
INSTANTLY KILLED BY NEGRO AT
YAZoO CITY-WAs SERVING AS
POLICE OFFICER.

Information was received here last
night from Yazoo City for communica-
ton to Dan Slaton, a resident of Petal,
that his son, Thomas Inman Slaton
was murdered by a negro about nine
O'Clock at night, when Slaton and a
fellow police officer attempted to ar
rest as dangerous and suspicious, two
negro men found at that hour loafing
around the railroad passenger station
in that city.
''Inman" Slaton, as he was called,
was well known in Hattiesburg, where
he had lived for several years, and
was for upwards of two years, a capa-
Bile member of the Hattiesburg Fire
department.
The father and brother of the muir
dered man left this morning for Yazoo
City to attend his funeral.
Young Slaton is said to have been
one of the best men on the Yazoo City
police force, and his tragic death while
in the discharge of his official duty
has aroused great indignation in that
city. The murderer who sent the ball
through Stations heart, causing instant
death, was himself shot down by Po-
lice officer Johnson, who fired three
effective shots at the negro and the
latter is thought to be mortaIly
wounded.
Slaton, who was 81 years of age,
is survived by a widow and three
small children
