HIGH FOOTBALL SQUAD WORKS WELL.
Bassett Working Men Hard to Get Them in Shape for
 Conway Game Saturday.
Grind, grind all the time.

Grind, grind all the time. conway High school comes to Pine Bluff Saturday and Coach Bassett is determined to give his little boys o1 this years team all the work that they can stand and be in readiness to meet tAls up state team, which is re- ported to be fast.
 The squad at the high school i: very light this year and to be able to compete with the best teams of the state, speed and accuracy will count, Already the regulars are showing to advantage but the machine-like per formance of former years is lacking.
 Most Of the squad are green and will have to be taught the new game Open play will be the feature of this years play, and this requires speed with the many shift and cross forma- tions.
 The little fellows show gameness, have plenty of nerve and are working well under fire. Mccain is fast de. veloping as back He weighs we'll on to 150 lbs, hits the line ilard and is fast to get away. He should de- velop into a good man with eXperi- ence.
 Bays at fullback has few equals as a line plunger. His experience of last year will lelp him to develop fast Hamlin is a fast man and With more work should prove a good ground gainer. Collins is one of the bea- all- around players the Hi has had for many seasons. He and Hamlin are fighting it out for the back field. Little oney is picking up fast at quarter. No gamer little fellow eve" wore suit. He puts every bit of his 125 pounds into the game.
 With these five men Coach Bass3tt will nave to build his running ma chine. he line has shown no particu- lar stars so far. All are green men, and show signs of becoming stars in the near future All are working With a will and have plenty of nerve, but are slow to get into the play.
 he scrubs are showing fight all the time. Jeff Allen and Reed Fletcher are developing the scrubs and they are giving the regulars a touch bat tie.
 For over an hour yesterday the regulars battled against the scrubs who held them to a close score. Much better work is being shown this week than last, and if this improvement keeps up the scrimmages will give the Hi squad some real work.
 The students are working hard On the new songs and yells, and if "root- ing" will help win games th tu- dents are going to do their saare.

the White SoX win the American league pennant in 1906 with FOG hitter and then go in and win the worlds championship? Perhaps son noly is the only 300 hitter, but. never theless, Stallings has a dangerous bunch of batters, men who are there in the pinches.
 "A club could not show the game ness of the braves without having players of class, players who have a right to be considered with the real heroes of the game. We all know that Johnny Eyers is great player. From what l have learned, Maranville l5 just such a man. GoWdy's work speaks for itself. No catch could go in day after day and hold up the pitchers in the tight games they have had without being shrewd man behind the bat"

OBJECTIONABLE SONG BOOK REMOVED
CAMBRIDGE ADVOCATE |

CAMBRIDGE ADVOCATE
Nearly a score of we'll known
white and colored people protested
against the Forty Song book on
Thursday at public meeting of the
school board. About $50 people
present. three fourths of them col
ored. voiced the sentiments Of the
speakers. The board unanimously
decided 10 throw out the book as
Objectionable.
Al least FIVE songs in the book
contain such words as niger,
darky," massa," or missus, ;"
and for this reason the protest was
lodged. The speakers declared that
these words are slurring, offensive,
prejudicial, and insulting to colored
children attending the schools
Butler Wilson. colored, said that
the songs were offensive, not only
to the chic rem, but their parents.
DR.. Thornton, pastor of the First
a. M. L. church, said that "Old
Black Joe, J" ETC., are Insulting and
offensive.
Rev. B. w. Swain of Columbus
avenue Zion church said We
regard these songs as the result of
another age, and we are not living
ia that age now. We want our
children to go TO school feeling that
they are Americans citizens mot
singled out and Inundated.

sitiou to vote 81 900. 900 bonds to

discussion. Their action seems to
meet the approval Of a majority of

Of this county TO make good The
small taxpayer who has seen his
taxes increase will hardly look at ii
from that standpoint, and chance
for the bonds TO carry would be

A CRUEL WRONG.

We notice that Mr.. c. c. Smith, former president of the Board
of Prison Trustees has come out in a card to the public and states
that he will not be a candidate in the approaching primaries for
that office. AS our readers well know, Mr.. Smith is one of the trus-
tees who was convicted and st ntenced to the pententary for FIVE
years for selling an automobile belonging to him, to the State, and
who was not required to 60 to the penitenuary owing to the mag
unanimous spirit and heart of Gov. Brewer. who pardoued him upon
the request If his (Smrh's) friend, Senator Vardaman. Mr.. Smith,
in his card, is very severe in his denuncldtion of Governor Brewer,
the man who saved him from prison stripes We have always been
a very close friend of Charlie smith politically, and number him as
one Of our truest friends, but we think ais letter to the public, and
especially that portion OF it wherein ne criticized Governor Brewer
in the manner that he did is unjust, uncalled for and ungrateful. If
we were in Smiths place, instead Of denouncing the governor, we
would be praising him from Que end of the State to the other. In
stead of his letter being detrimental to Governor Brewer, we think
lit will help that distinguished gentem IN, because a mar who is as
ungrateful as Smith is, certainly cannot DIS any harm to a man who
has s-ved him as Governor Brewer has done. We believe that some
of Charlie Smiths supposed friends caused him to issue that letter
and in the course of time we bell We he will see the error of his
way-McComb City Journal.

NOT LEGISLATION BUT LESS AGITATION.

The people of this State and of the South are now looking
to the Senate for the relief to which they have long been en-
titled, and if this congress ends with justice still withheld they
will know where the blame rests, and Nhom to cat to account.
-News-Scimitar.
The people of the South" certainly ought to know where
the blame rests, and whom to call Ia account for the discredt
placed upon their intelligence and character by the petition, in
their name, for passage OF the prep lsterous and undemocratc
Hoke smith Bob Henry bill fer cotton distress relief. Its col
lapse by common consent on the first day of the present session
proved its utter want of merit -Nicksburg- Herald.
What the South needs is not SO much legislation but less agta-
ton. The spiri, of looking to the government for the redression o
all ills, both real and imaginary, is unfortunate; it is a disturbing
cloud. All this hula baloo about the duty of the government to
staoaize and fix the price of the present cotton crop represented
only a small per cent of the people of the South. The politi
clans grabbed at it because they thought it a good advertising me-
dunn. The South knows that It the government steps in and IKE:
cotton values that the time will soon come that it must fix the price
of wheat and other products of the farmers of the northwest. Their
the shoe would be on The other foot. All remember the time thai
corn values were so low in the west that the farmers used their corr
for fuel. The individual, pecuniary interests, of the individual cti
zen or citizens should not be a matter for special government con
sderation.
