BfLBO DAY

Last Monday was in deed a
MEMORIALS day in Oxford. Lieut..
Governor Theo. G. Bilbo was here
He spoke to about one thousand
voters and these men came from
every part of the county; they
were representative men of the
county. Among them were a few
of the University men but the
hour was such hat the student
body could not come. The day
was inelement and it looked all
the morning like a downpour any
moment. In the audience there
were many men who were for
merly against Gov. Bilbo and at
ter the speaking they came out
entirely changed. Several of these
went to the distinguished guest
and told him they would now
support him; that they had been
misinformed and we're mistaken
lin the man and they would do
all they could to see him win.
II was It great day; it was one
of the most powerful presentation
of the ISSUES of the day ever
heard here. Every person said
that and every one went away
fully realizing that the next gov
n Of Mississippi had been tho
guest Of she day. .
Il will be impossible this week
10 outline Gov. Bilbo's platform
but suffice it to say that his
speech is a vote getter; its a
winner: his courteous and polite
references to all his opponents
and even his enemies won awarm
place in the hearts of his hearers.
Latter we shall give in detail Il
complete summary of this master
full and eloquent address. Lafay
cite County has always given
this distinguished speaker much
more than twice his opponents
and to say that he is stronger tina
ever before is putting it mildly.
His speech of today made those
who differ from him politically
heart sick; they saw there was
no possible chanes for any man to
heat him. A very small percent
age of this county. when the vote
counted will be registered a.
him.
Our position heretofore, II
stand for him is strengthened we
know that he is entitled to win
md us we have many times said
us vosr will not miss one hun
lred thousand very far no matter
low many they may put out
against him.

An Oxford Grocer.
Tells An Interesting Story.

When people right at here at home
come TO the front as Dir. Burrow has.
Eagle readers n have no canse for
doubt. Testimony like the following
has placed Doan's Kidney Pills far
above cofnpetitors-expressions from
your own friends and neighbors form
the best proof OF merit.
j. Il. Burrow, grocer, East Street,
Oxford, says: 81 was suffering from a
severe pain In my back Just across my
loins. / felt tired and languid all the
time, and at night my rest wa disturb
ed by too frequent passages of the kid-
ney secretions. Deans Kidney Pills
were brought to my attention and |
began using them, procuring n supply
at Kendel's Drug Store. They proved
very satisfactory doing me more good
than any other medicine | had ever
used CURED TO STAY CURED.
On May %, 1914, Mr.. liutrow, said:
"Doan's Kidney Pills are all right and
what / 8 id in Their praise some years
ago holds good. They cured me of
kidney troubles, and they have lever
returned. Since giving my former en-
dorsement one of my family has used
Doan's Kidney Pills aud they gave
Just as great satisfaction in her case"
Price 90 cents, at all deals. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy-get
Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that
Mr.. Burrow had. Foster Mil burn Co,

HARD TINES.

There is no use to talk hard
times. They are here il is true
but who is to blame? No one but
ourselves. We have a great
state, plenty Of fertile lands-in
fact land poor, we have fine wat
err, plenty of wood. an ideal elm
ate and yet we are poor, very
poor. But what is the use of cry
ing hard times? The thing for
every man To do is to think a lit
tie; then act. 1t means that We
must revolutionize our old worn
out methods of doing business;
It means that oCr merchants must
make some efforts to find good
markets; our farmers must like
wise look out for the same thing;
it means that every citizen in the
county and state must pull to-
gether. The towns are poor; the
country has plenty. The man in
town won't work; the man
in the country is very careless
about 1.-THE works to little or to no
purpose. What is the remedy?
New methods is the answer. Live
at home first; raise stock second
start dairies; third, diversity and
in tensify in farming; fourth,
don't buy on credit; fifth, do
your own thinking and go out
anew in your business with the
determination to succeed.
We have brought hard times
upon ourselves; we deserve no
sympathy and we should stop
talking about the matter that
does us no good. We can yet
live and then be blessed a Ihous-
and times more than the war
cursed people Of Europe. We
should quit talking hard times
80 to work and be happy.

Petition For Pardon.
To HIS ExcELLENCY, GOVERNOR
EARL BREWER:

To Ills ExcELLENCY, GOVERNOR
EARL BREWER:
We, tie undersigned citizens
of the county of Lafayette hereby
respectfully petition you to grant
a pardon to John Scott who, in
Sept. 1918, was convicted OF the
larceny of a mule in Lafayette
county and sentenced to three
years in the penitentiary, and as
sign the following reasons:
LIST. This was his first offense
and he protested his innoeence
from the first and still says he is
innocent.
End. Defendant claims that
he snapped for the animal in his
possession and was a stranger
many miles from home when the
trade was made and was badly
handicapped in making his de-
Tense.
3rd. There was a great deal
of prejudice in that section of the
~cNH HAcic tulc dIllI1al Was
stolen because many other ami
mails had been stolen there and
the defendant had to suffer large
ly for wrongs that others had
committed.
4th. Defendant belongs to one
Of the best families in this section
and all of of them, including de-
PENDANT. have always been good
citizens.
9th. If guilty, defendant has
suffered enough. He has made
a good prisoner and commands
the esteem of the penitentiary
authorities, and if pardoned we
believe he will make a good citi-
zen.
Many other good and sufficient
reasons will be shown on the hear
ing of this petition.
Respectfully submitted,
A. f. GALLOWAY and
many others.

Toccopola has lost all charms for
him since September 22nd. WI

pleasant visit here with home
folks has resumed his work at

''him" back.
Miss Lillye Davis returned to
Columbus Sunday, where she
will attend college this year. Miss
Davis is one Of Tula's most charm

missed more, especially in school

THE COTTON SITUATION.

No nan is wise enough to fore
cast with any degree Of certainty
Just what will be the outcome Of
the present crisis in the sale OF
cotton. The buy-a-bale move
ment has helped some but it is
far too small to assure any great
relief. II the merchants and 9TH
or business men OF the North and
dssst should really go into this
movement and buy oottl n OF ex-
change their wares for cotton, as
they ought to do, they can almost
save tie farmer of the South. II
they realized u situation pos
sibly they would make a real eff
fort. As matters now are this
idea is in the beginners stage and
may or may not be Of much real
service.
There IL one thing sure about
il all and that ~ it shows the
southern farmer how foolish he
has been all these years in rely
ing SOLELY upon cotton as his mot
ey crop. He is now helpless
b ggar. II his more frugal neigh
bors help him be says he will b.
thankful; he seems to have conn
TO realize his real condition. Blu
Will he help himself? VIII h,
continue to rely solely upon cot
ton believing that this same thinl
will care for him again? That il
the question. Our farmers ough
10 resolve here and now to solv,
the cotton problem by raising al
their necessaries OF lie at home
-hey should resolve TO quit buy
Jog on credit; they should lool
out for themselves and not be de
pendent upon strangers who ma.
aid them and who may not.
