BERLIN, MAY THE Lekaianzeig-

ably seni-ofiicial, in reference to the
excitement in France over Germany's
reported intention to exclude French
citizens from Alsaee- Lorraine. The
statement is to the effect that such
action Is not contemplated at pres
ent, but il may materialize il French
agitators persist in fomenting agita-
ton as they are doing now. The
paper adds that if expulsion were de-
termined upon there would certainly
be an excellent reason therefor.

STATE NOT INTERESTED
IN GENERAL POLITICS
JACKSON THINKS NOT HALF
Qualified VOTE WILL BE
POLLED AUGUST 18.

Jackson, July 14.-Never before in
Mississippi's political history has there
been such a general apathy as that
manifested in the congressional and
judicial campaigns. The Democratic
primary at which eight congressman,
seventeen circuit judges and ten chan
cellors are to be chosen will be held
a little more than thirty days hence,
the date fixed by statute being August
18th. In no part of the state has any
interest or enthusiasm been manifest
ed in behalf of any candidate, and un-
less there is a very decided stirring
up of interest within the next four
weeks, much less than fifty per cent
of the qualified vote will be polled.
Thus far none of the members of the
present delegation in congress have re-
turned home to look after their politi-
cal fences, having decided to stick to
their jobs until congress adjourns,
even If that date keeps them in Wash
ington right up to the date of the pri-
mary.
| Only two members of the delegation,
Messrs, Benz. Humphreys and ]. w.
Collier, have no opposition, and the six
other members, Messrs. Gambler,
Stephens, Sisson, Witherspoon, Harri-
son and Quin. apparently do not be-
lieve that their opposition is of such
strength as to justify uneasiness.
Apathy shown in the congressional
campaign is even more marked in the
judicial contests. Thus far none OF the
aspirants for election under the new
elective Judiciary system have sue
ceeded in stirring up the least bit oi
interest among voters, although they
are industriously touring the country
picnics and barbecues, and making
speeches at every opportunity.

STATE BALLOT WILL
Be SIX FEET LONG
VOTERS HAVE DAYS
WORK CUT OUT FOR THEM
IN NOVEMBER.

Jackson, Miss, July 14.-Among 9th.
er proposed constitutional amend
ments to be submitted to the qualified
electors of Mississippi on November
election day, to add to the over-long
string of these measures to accompany
it, Is the Mott resolution, which was
adopted, proposing to adopt the sys-
tenn of initiative and referendum in
the political and legislative economy
of the state. The amendment proposed
would change section 33 of the consti-
tuition of 1890, so that the people shall
formally propose legislative measures
Of all kinds and 1t proposes that 1900
qualified electors shall be sufficient to
suggest or propose such legislation as
may be necessary and expedient for
the people.
The entire amendment, as printed in
minion type, runs to more than a col
umn of newspaper space, and it is pre-
sumed that each voter, on going to
his polling booth, before affixing his
affirmative or negative mark at the
foot of the measure, will read 1t so as
to inform himself thoroughly as to how
he should vote.
In addition to this there are to be
printed on the same ballot either other
proposed amendments, six Of them
dealing with the supreme court; one
proposing to change the method of de-
termining jury trials in civil suits, and
one proposing a scheme Of state sena-
torial redistricting so as to increase
the South Mississippi representation
in the upper branch of the Legislature.

SUPERVISORS PLAN
IMPROVED HIGHWAY
At AUGUST MEETING MAY
AUTHORIZE GOOD ROAD
THROUGH PETAL.

j. P. Poole and John Davis, mem
bers Of the Board of Supervisors from
beats two and three respectively, are
working on plans for the construction
of an improved highway through Petal,
beginning at the New Orleans & North.
eastern railroad tracks and extending
past the new road which connects Petal
with Harvey.
They expect to have these plans
completed by the August meeting Of
the board and at this meeting it Is
probable that definite action will be
taken to build the new road.
This is one Of the most important
thoroughfares in the county and has
been in bad condition for many years
1t would have been improved long age
but for the fact that the line dividing
beats two and three runs down the
middle of the road and under the 500,
900 bond issue by beats one and three
none of the money could be spent il
beat two. The road commissioners, o
course, did not want to build half
road, SO the Petal road has continued
TO remain in bad condition.
The supervisors, however, have
fund out of which this road can b
built and the matter will be presse
at the next meeting of the board.
Seven Bridges in Seven Months.
Encouraged by the increased sent
ment in favor of good road constru'
ton, the supervisors have been devo

money available to improving Forres

FINE STOCK TO ATTEND
MERIDIAN CATTLE SHOW
LEADING BANKERS TO DISCUSS
"CATTLE AS BASIS OF BANK
ING CREDIT"

The Southern Cattlemen's Associa- |
tion at Meridian, Miss, August IL to |
13, will resemble the Great Information |
al Live Stock Exposition as there will
be assembled pure bred breeding cat
tie from the best herds in America.
The three great beef breeding asso-
Citations, namely: The American Short
horn Association, The American Aber-
deen-Angus Association, and The
American Hereford Association will
hold separate sales of cattle during the
two days.
The question of the best breed of
cattle has been argued since there has
been more than one breed. The Short
,, horn breeder has confidence in his
type and sees the weakness Of the
other breeds. The Hereford breeder
swears by the white faces. The proud
possessor of the Aberdeen-Angus
thinks he has the other two outclassed.
The question probably will never be
settled to a unanimous conclusion.
Prof. r. S. Curtis Will Judge.
! There Is room for all the breeds in
the South and they are all welcome,
providing, they bring us the best. The
Meridian meeting is bound to bring out
the blue ribbon cattle for the associa-
tions are in keen competition to make
the best impression.

in entertaining the cattlemen. Proi
R. S. Curtis, of the Iowa Agriculture
College, one of the leading authoritie
of the country in the cattle industr
has accepted the invitation to addres
the convention.
Another important subject on tn
program is Cattle as a Basis of Bank
ing Credit" This will be discusse
by the leading bankers of the Sout
and should arouse great interest.
