MEAT HAS GONE SKY HIGH.

The people of tn is country
can't eat meat much longer. 1t
is entirely too high. There seems
no chance for it to come down.
What is the reason? That is easy.
The ''other fellow has the hogs
and beef for sale while you
havn't got any; that's the reason.
When will this stop? 1t will new
er stop until every farmer and
business man begins to raise cat
tie and hogs. To do that means
that you must live on the farm
and see personally to this sort of
thing. One can't raise hogs and
cattle in town; they can't be
raised when the owner lives in
town-he must be there; these
animals need his attention. Feed
il the item that must be attend
ed to; it can't be done when the
man interested is off in town or
somewhere else. 1t means back
to the farm; it means, quit rails
ing cotton. Let your money
grow raising hogs and cattle;
that takes very little hard work.
1t is not like pi~oughing in new
ground or in the mud. Raise a
few porkers, a few fine beef cat
tie; make life worth living by
being independent.

BILBo DAY, OCTOBER 9TH.

We are having many inquiries
about Bilbo Day. The people
every where are coming. Gov.
Bilbo has many friends in this
county. He received 10 the last
election 1897 votes while his op-
ponents received much less than
half this number all told. Gov.
Bilbo hasn't lost a man: he has
gained a few and those now
against him clay low" Those
running for office who oppose
Bilbo are extremely quiet; they
won't. dare to say aught against
him. The opposition IS boosting
others of course, out they are
few and down deep in their hearts
they know they are doing wrong.
Mississippians believe in fair
play, yet many times they get so
prejudiced they won't repent. II
ever there was a man in this state
that deserved promotion, that de.
served to be given the highest
office in the gift of the people il
Is Bilbo. They have charged
him with everything yet they
With all tn e r resourcefulness,
money and haste have been able
to prove nothing. A guilty
man could not thus escape; a bad
man could not get by this state
wide persecution. After all what
has Bilbo done that he should not
be governor? Nothing at all ex-
cept he has incurred the external
hatred of that class of men VINO
think everything in this state was
made for them personally, who
would scuttle the ship of state &c
carry out their selfish ends. Bill.
DO has shown up that crowd and
they hate him for it. But the
honest, fair minded citizens will
not let them ~assassinate him al
the ballot but as a few hope they
they will be able to do. They
will shoot the sneak, the pretend.
er, the spy, the straddIer. the ''nc
faction" man every time he sticks
has held up; remember that.

REPAIR AND UP-KEEP OF
OUR ROADS.

We have recently had some-
thing 10 say about our new bond-
issue roads. We stated they were
entirely too lat. Mr.. Buford
Bryant, our hustling road COM
missioner. says that he expects
10 GO right after this feature of
the roads. We nope he will have
the proper encouragement and
corporation. Mr.. Bryant is a
good man; he knows how to build
and keep up a good road. We
hope the contractors under him
will do their part and that the
citizens at large will lend him
every support. These roads, il
properly rounded up in the mid
die, some eight inches higher, il
most places. will insure gooC
roads all winter. After this III,
road problem will be solved.

LIEUT.. GOV. ~BILBO-CAPTf-
WAITING THE CROWDS

From all parts of the country
where Lieut.. Gov. Bilbo speaks
the good news comes that thous-
ands hear him. Even the small
papers that oppose him admit
that he gets many times the size
crowd OF the other candidates. In
fact every man in this state
knows that it is the field against
Bilbo. His enemies are selecting
as many as they can to run
against him thinking there may
be some chance in the second
primary. But, as was the case
in 1911 there won't be any second
primary for governor; it will be
very emphatically settled in the
first.
Ore amusing thing about this
race is that every candidate
against Bilbo is now trying 10
say that at some time in the past
he voted for Vardaman - they
have quit the first idea of saying
Il am the candidate Of no fac
ton" and such stuff as that.
Why is it that every snti-Varda-
man man in the state, that has
not turned over to Bilbo. ia al
ways for one of these fellows
that says he belongs to no fac
ton? Simply because that is
their way Of fighting; they won't
come clean; they won't fight in
the open. They make like they
eschew politics when in truth
they r already aligned; they
are hide bound, they are bitter,
they are preparing for the dirti-
est campaign ever known in this
state. They have hunted up a
few additional mud singers here
and there to help their old run
down, worn out repudiated edi-
tors say dirty, mean and william
u things. But the people see
all this; the people are not blind.
As we have often said the lines
will be drawn upon the same is
sues as we had in 1911. 1t is the
people against secret caucus
gangsters now just the same as
1t was then; the same old crowd
to Gust the peoples selec-
tons and they will try to fool
them with any sort of faIsehoods
they a devise-and heretofore
they have been given the chrome
On that line. II
But Bilbo gets the crowds; he
mas made good; ne has been tried
in the fire and came out un-
scratched. He fought the hard
est battle against the greatest
odds OF any man that ever lived
in this state. And he won; he
not only won but ne ENDORSED
the biggest gang OF jugglers and
~assassins that ever infested a
great state.
Justice Will prevail; it may be
belated but it will come. BiIbo
will DE elected by the biggegt
majority ever given any candi-
date in this state and he deserves
20 be.

Judge Teat, thesman who triea
Gov. Bilbo, met overwhelming
defeat at the polls Tuesday down

upon the bench to wreak his
malice upon a private citizen.

OUR SUPERVISORS AND
ROAD

Every day, almost, We hear
some good citizen stating on the
streets that our present road con-
tractors have almost abandoned
their roads. That these eontrac-
tors make crops, so about their
usual business. and once or twice
per year they get a team and
pI0w and run a few burrows on
the tide of the road, take the
scraper and pull this up toward
the middle, and then quit. In
other words they just won't work
the roads. We have always tined
70 aid the board in these and all
matters looking to the public
service and il this be true there
must be a remedy. We suggest
to the board to bring suit or the
bonds of these men,. Some say
the board don't pay many of them
when their quarters are up but,
while that helps. that don't get
roads. VIVA. We want is roads.
Not mere default in working
them. II the present contractors
went put their roads in shape
per contract, then they ought to
be made to do it. That is all
there is TO it. The people will
back up the board in this. Let
us have the contractors do his
work; il he fails make his bonds
men do it. No use to spend the
peoples money in vain; no use to
do without roads when we have
contracts to keep them in repair.
If the contractors had done their
duties these years, our roads
would have been among the best
in this state. Make the contrac-
tors do their duty. II they won't
then let the board contract, as
they have the right to do, with
persons who will keep the roads

Chicken Raising

Now is the time for country
people to make big money rails

had the year round. With meat
beyond the reach of the average

chickens. We can't have these

well TO raise a large number of
