THE DISTRESSED COTTON BALE.

Elsewhere in this issue there appears a communication from Mr.
Inc. I. Keeton in which he urges that steps be taken by the people
of Grenada county to join in the movement inaugurated in Atlanta
Ga, which has for its purpose the purchasing by every citizen who
can. one bale of distressed cotton. The idea is good so far as it
goes and upon the theory that every little is a help" should be en-
couraged. The farmer who is not in debt, o whose assets exceed
his liabilities could not own "distressed' cotton, and the movement
is not intended for him but for those who are COMPELLED to sell
their cotton t meet urgent liabilities O II who must sell TO buy the
necessaries of life. TIE only intelligent way to pass upon who own.
distressed" cotton would be to have a committee. say of three men,
TO upon the cotton that is offered for sale as such. If every
county in the state should join in the movement and, for instance,
buy 600 bales of "distressed' cotton, that would mean $4,000 bales
of cotton taken off the market and would go no small way towards
ameliorating the perplexed conditions which now confront the
country. But to our mind something more far reaching than the
purchasing of distressed cotton must be done if the European war
continues much longer. Our only salvation is for the federal gov
ernment to come to our relief. That looks like, and is, a stupen.
dols OBLIGATION but our government has never before halted at gil
eantc tasks and we feel that some way that will not be chimerical
al be devised to handle a product that all the world needs, one
that will be safe 10 the government and one that will save the cot
ton farmer. 1t might be urged that it would not do to store the
cotton O to adopt a method by which next year, for example, two
c,ons would be put upon the market at once. Under present con-
dtions if the cotton gets out of the farmers hands at bankrupt pi
cs it will be held by somebody and not sold, and at last there will
be tMo crops on the market at once. If the federal government can,
and We believe it can, devise some way to take are of the present
crop on A ten cent basis, the idea then is tor the farmer to adjust
himself to conditions next year and raise little or no cotton. There
is no other way open to our people. We are confronted with "a
condition and not a theory''-we can not raise cotton while the Euro.
pean war is in progress.
Let US give MI. Keeton's suggestions serious consideration and
take some steps in Grenada county to aid in taking care of The
situation.

JUDGE TEAT'S DEFEAT.

As a rule it is needless to discuss what might have been after an
event has happened, but when there is a principle involved it is not
only proper but often our bounden duty to do so.
The election for circuit judge in this district is over. We have
no regrets at the part we took in the contest. We thought we were
stand with the people of Grenada county and to have been a worker
with them in the result attained which gave Judge Teat s out of the
10 boxes in the county and a majority of 200 votes.
We are firm in the conviction that we of this county made the
only fight that should have been made-this county waged a contest
that should have been made all over the district. We met the Blbo
issue face to face. We swated it right and left and put it out in
both rounds. Had the friends of Judge Teat done IS we did all over
the district, we are firm in the belief that the result would have been
in Judge Teat's favor; but instead of following our example they in
sisted that side issues should not be involved and that the question
of state politics be kept out. This was in keeping with Judge Teat's
high ideals and his belief that the judiciary should be kept out of
state politics, a position that is all right in ethics but hardly. pract;.
cal when your adversary is not guided by Justly considered rules
When you are being fought with fire you must also have a torch Of
your own. We repeat, had Judge Tea,'s friends in every county in
the district met the Bilbo issue as we OF this county, squareIv and

torial and lost him some votes not only in this county but all over
the district. Many of the lawyers were against him because he had
a mind of his own and because he would not permit legal wranpl;no
and fruitless arguments.
Everything was charged against him from attempted rape by
The Grenada sentinel. [volume] (Grenada, Miss.) 1868-1955, 1914-09-11

his brother to wife beating. There is a reaction that always comes
of such things. In view of all the surroundings and the much mis-
understandings, Teat made a remarkable race.
We have nothing but the kindliest feelings tor the new Judge.
Nobody ever attributed to Judge Rodgers an intimate acquaintance
with the law, but that makes little difference in this day when there
are so many advisers" who are ready to render gratuitous service.
We believe Judge Rodgers a kindly disposed, good natured
man and if he carries out his pledges the blind tiger vendor and the
law violator will find in him an mrelenting foe. 1t is tie duty OF
every good citizen to help him to try to make the best Judge the
district ever had. We are ready to aid him in every way possible
and shall support him in every effort which he may make to purify
the atmosphere of the district and to bring about a higher respect
for the law.
SO far IS we are concerned the contest is in the past. We are
done with it. Our hat is off to the winner. We shall do our humble
part in making Judge Rodgers administration a success.

Boys, let's forget it.
We are grateful that they did not do us any worse.

Judge Teat can console himself by recalling that L. George,
one of the greatest characters the state ever had, lost his home
county in his second race Tor the I. 5. Senate. Yes, Carroll county
once turned her back upon George.

matter due consideration as To the
