Railroad Company Appeals To Mis-

of Its Patrons And
Employees.

The killing of live stock, while
trespas sing upon the waylands of
Americl an railroads, has for years
been gradually increasing, and
more Iately to an alarming extent,
resulting in an unnecessary waste
and another contribution to the
high cost of living. In Mississippi,
the situation is especially bad, as
evidenced by the fact that, on the
waylanas of the Illinois Central
aud Yazoo & Mississippi Valley
Railroads alone, more than six
thousau d head of stock, or "a per
cent oi the total for the system,
are auniallY killed, ibis while but
% per cent of our total mileage is
operateh in your State. Claims
paid on this account have increased
to a point where the resulting >ex.
pense bow amounts to tremen-
dous annual drain upon our gross
revenues and, as with the fake
damage suit industry and other
evils from which We have suffered,
it is one of those charges which,
in the last analysis, affects ma
teriaIly the pocket books of the
people themselves.

We have gone to considerable
expense, in the way of fencing,
( constructing cattle guards, etc., in
an endeavor to overcome the
present situation, but despite every
effort it has grown entirely beyond
our direction and control. 1t is
one of those troubles requiring
the attention of our farmer neigh
bors to correct, and in the interest
of our patrons and employees,
whose safety is menaced by this
grave danger, we appeal for your
cooperation and support.
1t is a we'll known fact that trains
are frequently derailed by strikir G
an otherwise harmless, COW, and
conditions are now so bad that
trainmen in Mississippi-Your owu
home people Iargely-must per-
form their duties under great
strain.
We appeal to you, therefore, to
discontinue permitting your cattle
to- roam at large and to see to it
that private gates, opening on our
waylands, are kept closed. There
already is a law forbidding this
practice, but we are loath to IN
woke it, preferring to acquaint the
good people of Mississippi with
the extreme urgency of the matter,
feeling that your usual fairness and
regard for the rights and the wei
fare of others viii prompt the i'm
mediate adoption of necessary cor
rective measures.
In common with other railroads
we have for some time been wag-
ing an active campaign in the in.
terest of "Safety First" and good
results have so far attended our
efforts. The matter of stock tres
pass, however, is almost entirely
within your control
Won't you please, therefore,
unite in assisting us to better
very bad condition

The Reveille is in hearty accord
with the foregoing. The railroad
has gone to an enormous expense
in fencing its tracks and putting
IN cattle guards in order to protect
stock, and our people should be
willing to contribute toward help
ng the company all they can. AS
1 matter of fact, large part of the
"a per cent which Mr.. Foley credits
% the state of Mississippi is made
Up of false claims.
The railroads have long been
victims of unscrupulous people
Who use every method at their
command to fleece a corporation
With ready cash. For the sake of
ustlce and for the sake of the
state which, after all, 'pays the
every honest man should
lse his influence toward reducing
his unreasonable per cent.-ED.

COUNTY INsTIT1ITE.
AnInteresting and Instructive Weeks
Work For Teachers.


The institute for 1914 for th.
Claiborne county teache,rs wa
held in Port Gibson at the Por
Gibson High school dnring III,
week beginning Aug. I7th.
The committee on resolutions
directed that the secretary make &
short report of the meeting.
The conductor of thei institute
was Mr.. ]. T. Griffin. pr Encipal o.
the Woodville Agricultural High
School. Miss Linda Wilson was
elected secretary.
The motif OF the institute, al
though instructive, was primarily
educative, according to the strict
etymology of the two words. The
thought of the hearer was drawn
out. The brain of the listener was
not considered empty or partly
filled to have information poured
into it. One illustration may suf-
fee: What constitutes a good
school? was one of the first ques
tions brought forward for consid-
Grafton. The definition was not
given by the conductor, but the
teachers were asked to express
Judgment in the case. The fol-
lowing answers came one by one
from different teachers, with
thought and deliberation, ,-ques.
ton and replies being written on
the blackboard:
What constitutes good school7
A good teacher.
A good building.
A good locality.
Good equipment (library, black.
boards, maps, globes, proper
desks, etc.
Loyal, interested patronage.
A good course of study.
A minimum of eight months con-
tinuous session.
What are the qualifications OF a
good teacher1 was the next query,
calling for the best thought OF the.
teachers.
Interesting questions for discus
Sion on school improvement, the
recitation, hygiene, etc., were as.
signed to various teachers.
The other chord sounded at this
institute was its pleasant, kindly
tone. "Suaviter in modo, fortiter
in re" seemed to be the unwritten
motto. The spirit of the meeting
was like that of Bishop Vincent's
New York chautauqua.
One of the mottos observed on
the blackboard was this:
Smile SMILE
While you smile
Another smiles,
And soon there will be
Just miles and miles OF smiles
If you'll just smile.
Also the sun diaI's motto:
l record nothing but hours of
sunshine.
On Friday, DR.. L. A. Smith, by
invitation gave an instructive talk
on the Hygiene of the Teeth; and |
on the same day Mr.. Griffin spoke
on Agricultural High Schools. EN-
phasizing the importance, explain
ing the method, and illustrating
the subject by reference to the
agricultural and home economics
departments OF his own school at
WoodvilIe, with his nine teachers
and two hundred fifty pupils.
. Mrs. Jennie Berry, county lead
er of the girls canning clubs, gave
several instructive talks. The Wig
orous growth Of the boys and
girls club movement was noted,
the organizations, though of recent
origin, are now coextensive with
the southland.
Many of the regular teachers
were not present at the institute,
but the regular aud interested at
tendance of those who are prepar-
ing to become teachers was OBJ
served with pleasure.

Bryan In Colorado

Secretary of State Bryan is going
to speak in Colorado and Wyoming
September Fl and % for the national
democratic ticket. Of course, while
he is about it he will say good word
for his friend, ex-senator Patterson.
Mr.. Bryan will learn while here that
there are thousands of democrats who
admire him who will not be detected
from their sense of duty to the state
by any appeal to party loyalty. This
because they feel sure that they are
right in opposing the major part of
the democratic state ticket and the
cowardly platform on which all the
candidates are compelled to stand by
reason of the overwhelming influence
of Messrs. julius Aichele and Tom
Hyder upon the platform committee
and because they feel now that Mr..
Bryan is almost as iguorant of the
Colorado situation as President Will
son himself. Much as the president
is admired no man ever labored under
a greater handicap of transformation
than President Wilson in his at
tempt to end anarchy in the state, by
rewarding the anarchists; to stop
thievery by feeding the bandits in
the parlor; to stop arson by giving
the burners fresh torches. 1t is all
right for Mr.. Bryan to speak for the
congressional delegation which has
stood by his chief, but it will avail
nothing for him or the congressional
delegation to speak of situation con-
corning which the people at home
have first hand Observation-Disclosures

Why Should They?

A few democratic papers are kick
ing because the republicans are not
offering anything in place of the
"war tax" although Directing to that.
Why should they? No one but a
greedy party that had been out six
teen years would think Of putting a
"war tax" on a nation which is at
peace. "War tax" nothing, it is a
graft tax" pure and simple. No
other name will explain it.
