HOW TO CHOOSE Il JUDGE

In the coming campaign the News may or may not favor one
or another as a candidate for judge. That depends upon wheth-
Ell or not there is some marked difference in the moral worth or le-
gal attainment or judicial temperament of the aspirants. But tor
the present we have just this word of warning and friendly advice to
give the people into whose hands this great trust has been commit
ted, and this is, Keep the judiciary out of politics." Do not raise
the question. do not inquire what political faction he has trained
with in the past. or what his personal choice may be for senator or
governor; that has nothing to do with the case. Is he worthy; is he
honest; is he capable; is he fair and square; will he hold the scales
he seeks; keep prejudice and politics out-Hattiesburg News.
This is exactly the attitude the Sentinel has adopted for the
forthcoming canvass for judges and chancenors, and it would sug-
gest that all other papers in the state adopt the same sane and i'm
partial policy. The only way that all this partisan pickering in the
state can be eliminated is for the papers to take a decided stand
against it being brought to the front in the coming campaign and
then it will stop in double quick time.-Summit Sentinel
We gladly give our Endorsement to the above from two of Mis-
sissppis leading newspapers.

r. C. KXMBROUGH OF VEST POINT

The Sentinel but voices the sentiment of a vast majority OF the
people of this section when it states that it hopes T. c. Kimbrough
of West Point will be successful in his ambition to be elected circuit
judge of that district. Tommy Kimbrough," as he is Familiarity
called in these parts, was reared near Jefferson, in Carroll county,
and is first remembered in Grenada S a boy driving an OK team. In
his community he was noted for his industry on the farm and for
his application to his studies in the winter and summer months. His
success as a lawyer is a matter of no surprise to his old friends and
has been noted with genuine pleasure by them. While yet a young
man, he has attained far more than ordinary prominence in his pro-
fesion and we feel assured that the people of his district could NOT
select a more worthy man to place upon the circuit bench or one
that would be more just and that would more nearly meet the high
est requirements of the judiciary. Aside from his peculiar fitness as
a lawyer to occupy a place on the bench, he is a christian gentle
and has always been noted for his moral integrity.
Grenada and Carroll counties thoroly commend T. L. Kim
brough to the people of his district as their next circuit Judge.

The Governor has approved the new liquor law. 1t is a rather
lengthy statute. 1t requires that all orders for intoxicants shall be
registered with the circuit clerk and that one man shall not order
more than one gallon of whiskey a month 1t absolutely prohib-
its the keeping of Intoxicating drinks in lockers and club rooms, and
contains many other features that limit John Barleycorn. While in
some respects we think the law a little too drastic-so drastic that
it will perhaps thwart the purpose of its promoters, yet it is
headed in the right direction. Governor Brewer expressed some
doubt about its constitutionalty. The supreme court of Ten
nessee just a few days ago declared the one-gallon law of that state
unconstitutional, and it remains to be seen whether or not this law
will be put up to our supreme court for its opinion on the same.
Only one case of beer can be ordered a month and affidavit must be
made that it is for personal use.

Country life has its drawbacks, but it has its great advantages
which overcome them. True, those who live in the country are
sometimes referred to as "Rubes," Farmers" and "Hayseeds," by
cigaret smokers and soft heads in town, but the boast of the bust
ness men in the world today is that they were born on the farm.
Take away the surrounding evils that beset the young men or wo-
men on the Threshold of lifes journey in the city.
The Grenada sentinel. [volume] (Grenada, Miss.) 1868-1955, 1914-03-13

The tongue is a little thing, but it is a mighty power. 1t can
make or mar the Happiness. of a life or of a home. 1t should be
closely guarded. The saying of one unkind or selfish thing makes
the next easier, and so on until a habit is formed that can never be
entirely overcome.

manufacturers. They have bought espe-

higher prices and still greater scarcity of
goods on account of the European wars
The style show was great success and
the living model demonstrations excited
favorable comment from all the mer-
chants.
The local wholesalers and manufac-
turers are well pleased with the week S
