officers have tried to suppress the

Therefore, the worst whisky imag
Unable has been struggled into the
South, and then the saloon agents
have pointed so the traffic as prov
ing prohibition d failure" After
ten years Congress has passed a bill
to break up this traffic. This is q
great triumph for law and order. a
great triumph for home rule. Here
after outsiders may not enrich them
selves by smuggling whisky into
prohibition territory. 1t makes for
the peace Of every community and
the protection OF every home. 1t
has been a long fight, but after the
opponents OF the measure had ex-
exhausted every parliamentary trick.
and the bill was allowed to come TO
vote, it was carried by an over
whelming vote. while the Senate did
not dare to face a roll call. We send
to the friends Of temperance through

When a newspaper is weighed
down with too much name, the relics
of victories in consultations, and
such hyphenated names no longer
means anything in the way of keep
ing out foolish competition, about
the best thing to do is to stuff off
some of the aliases or hyphens. It's
like speaking of folks who have long
ames,-the public will manage some
way to take short cuts and the way
might as we'll be provided by the
name wearer as invented by some
nickname maniac.

EDITORIAL

It's not in good keeping with the
ethics of journalism for one news
paper to clip stuff from another and
run it under the vague credit OF Elk
or Exchange, unless the origi-
mating journal is unknown or too far
away in distance or date for the con
nection to be made. Brethren OF

each other credit for what we sever

One of our exchanges, namely
The Magnolia Gazette, speaks Of
some Landmark Mud Holes" in
the county in which that paper is
published. This suggests the query
to the Herald: Have we any land
mark mud holes in Greene County?"
Well yes we suppose some are left
whose. history runs back beyond the
memory of the present generation,
bnt we are proud to be able to state
that the Good Roads campaign on in
our county is responsible for the
disappearance of several such land
marks and we trust that with the
application of sand, brush etc. it will
not be long before all such will have
disappeared from the map and will
fade from the recollection of Good
Old Greene. Such historic stretches
of road are no credit to US and the
Herald has not just now begun to
raise its voice for their adjustment

Plcayune Item.
The field of the newspaper in poll
tics is a very important one. 1t
should be honest and preach honesty
in politics. AS self-governme
calls for political activity upon the
part of the people, the newspaper as
an exponent of public thought ought
to seek to promote moral and intel

President Wilson Shows Backbone.

Crystal Springs Meteor.
That President Wilson, is man OF
infiexible backbone is evidenced by
the ultimatum he delivered to the
Louisiana sugar cormorants who
have thriven by a bold hold-up of the
American people for years and have
been told that they must accept a
duty of a cent a pound for three
years, after which sugar will be adj
mitted free. The claims of these in
satiable tariff gluttons are prepos-
terous demanding the levy of a
tribute upon The entire American
people that the industry of nine
Louisiana parishes might flourish.

Too much can not be said in com
mendation of President Wilson and
Secretary of State Bryan in their
banishing liquors from the tables of
the White house and the secretarial
home. This is said to be the first
time since the administration of
Rutherford B. Hays that the intoxi-
eating liquors have been barred from
White House dining functions. Nav
it so continue from this forth. It
takes nerve to decline liquors at ta-
bic in these big places as this writer
knows from personal experience in a
smaller way at some of the functions
that we have attended along with
press associations, but the present.
time critic secretly admires the
person who brings his protested
attitude for prohibition into keeping
with actual practice. Bryan has
turned down his glass at the table of
royalty so it was no hard matter for
him to but continue with him, an es-
tablished and righteous practice.
May such sentiment become gradu-
ally fastened upon the public life of
this great nation Of ours, and may
there develop more and more exem-
plars like our courageous president
and The peerless commoner.

John RameY these twenty years and
we cas- say without fear of contradic-

Ramey the appointment, there will
be no more painstaking, careful or
competent official in Mr.. Wilson S
official family than the man from
Wayne County. Mr.. Ramey is not
