The Semi-weekly leader. (Brookhaven, Miss.) 1905-1941, 1914-10-14

Senator Kenyon, of Iowa, one of
the most rantankerous Republicans
and leader of the fiIibustering forces
IN the Senate, last week gave utter
ance to the following in a remark
addressed to the Democratic men,
bers: "You have president,
great leader a man strong in the
affections of the people of this coun-
try. pay my tribute to him. I
am glad that he is president of the
United States in these troubIous
times, and that with such a steady
hand he is guiding this old ship Of
the state through the rocks ard
shoals that are besetting it. l gIo-
ry in his manhood. You have
right to feel that he is a leader to
be proud Of.
The Semi-weekly leader. (Brookhaven, Miss.) 1905-1941, 1914-10-14
NEW FIRST LADY,"

The white house has a new mis-
tress.
Miss Margaret Wilson has laid
down her editorial pen, cancelled
her lecture engagements, aban-
doned her cherished phiIanthropic
mission and the friend of the
slum dweller. the patron of many
working girls clubs, has taken her
position as the first lady of the land
and social mentor of the nation.
As the presidents eldest dauRh.
ter, she succeeds to the position
recently vacated by the death of
her mother, Mrs. Helen Arson
Wilson.
Miss Wilson's tastes being intel
lectual and artistic rather than
social she has had small share in
the social life of Washington, pre-
ferring to devote her time to the
study of music, to lecturing in the
interest of social equity and pro-
noting interest in social center
work.
Miss Wilson, who is consider
ably less than thirty years old, is
the third unmarried woman and
the second very young woman to
preside at the whitehouse. During
the Cleveland administration the
presidents sister. Miss Rose CIeve-
land, was white house hostess until
she was succeeded by the presi-
dents bride, and Miss Helen Taft,
while still a school girl, took her
mothers place during the latter's
illness, as first lady" and re-
ceived with her father at state
functionism in Washington

alton 1t is not the duty OF ,ar
Federal Government to SaIorlze
the cotton crop and we do not
thu. it either wise or ingenious
for the Southern congressman to
urge such action.
The thing for the Southern
farmer to do is to face the stu
alton squarely and resolve to
pocket his loss this year and to
refrain from putting all of his
eggs in one basket in the future.
He has no moral right To refuse
to sell his cotton and pay the
time merchant who has advanced
him the money to make tins crop
and who probably needs the
money every bit as badly as does
the farmer himself.
a farmer came to Roanoke
Rapids last week and bought
hams, paying therefor the
equivalent of four pounds of
lint cotton. As a business pro
position this is the most distinct
failure we have ever heard Of.
The South cannot expect per
manent prosperity until it diver
sites its crops,
And in the meantime this
year 5 cotton crop must be dis
posed of in some way, debts
must be paid and the wheels of
business started to revolving
even at a slower pace than nor

Hard Facts

One of our contemporaries
advocates a movement to Sell a
Bale and pay your debts. "
One of the best cotton plans we
have heard for some time. Over
taken by catastrophe he could
not foresee the Southern farmer
faces a bitter loss on account of
the present low price of cotton,
due entirely to a condition
which cannot either be overlook
ed or overcome the preponder-
ance of supply over demand.
We are not in sympathy with
those Southern congressman who
make the South appear as a beg
ger to the nation and whine for
aims from the Federal Govern
ment which cannot be granted
without making a dangerous
and possibly disastrous breach of
precedent.
1t is the duty Of the Federal
Government to render the South
ern farmer what aid it can con-
sistent with the best interests of
the country as a whole and it is
the duty of every patriotic citi-
zen to do everything he can to
mitigate the rigors of the stu

Prohibition

If the next General Assembly
does what the State Anti-Saloor
League is going to ask for NORTH
Carolina will be quite positively
and definitely dry greatly to tho
discontinue we fear Of many
thousands of prohibition voters.
We do not believe that the
legislature will pass such a law
as that asked: that is to prohibit
shipment Of alcoholic beverages
into the State except to drug
stores, hospitals, etc, in other
words, where there is a bona iide
handling Of liquor for medicinal
purposes.
We would be glad however, to
see such a law passed. 1t is
about the only way to make the
present prohibition law effective,
and it would also be poetic justice
in the strict sense Of the word
for those individuals who voted
for prohibition and who still re-
ceive interstate shipments Of al
coholic beverages.
We predict from this latter
class of gentry quite howl
when a bill debarring interstate
shipments of liquor comes up in
the General Assembly.

First of all. when you enter there
you are in a different world, a world
peOpled by men and women Of ancient
times, when physical development was
as it should be and every person born
was a philosopher UncOnsciOusly you
begin to absorb wholesomeness. The
lines Of your face settle into the calm
nobility Of purpose seen on all the
faces about you
you wonder, with little half
shamed smile, how you could possibly
lose your temper so many times dur
ing the trivial little happenings of the
day. you resolve to be more calm in
the future, a great peace seems to be
tenance, you are in q. land where strife
is unknown, where life presents too
big a problem to allow any Of its hap
peuings to be trivial and therefore
where each individual does his or her
part in the great understanding pro-
cess.
Their Beauty Secrets.
Wont you all make friends with
the inhabitants Of the nearest gal
lery? They know a great many more
beauty secrets than do. I have sim
ply stolen a few to tell you because
I know that they will spur you on to
know more. Go and see if, after all

Second Nature.
It IS second nature to love, and it is
third nature to be Jealous. 1t is the
part of wisdom to conceal this jealousy,
but the beginners at the game, those
who take love most seriously and who
regard 1t not as an incident IN life, but
all Of life itself, are never wise in
playing their parts. They love without
restraint, they are just uncontrolled in
the fear, hatred and resentment of
jealousy. The man and woman who are
jealous and show it. defeat their own
happiness, but the objects of their ador-
alton and suspicion have the satisfac-
ton of knowing it is not love that
has blOomed before.

EASTERN BIDS FOR BONDS
TOO SMALL; TURNED DOWN
TERRITORIAL TREASURER c0NKLING CABLES OFFERS,
WHICH ARE DECLARED TO BE TOO L0W-G0 GOVERNOR
ANSWERS WITH INSTRUCTIONS TO REJECT ALL
TENDERS-L0CAL BIDS ARE ACCEPTED.

Hawaii is to feel the deterrent eff.
feet of the European war.
All the eastern bids for the new
territorial bond issue, of which $780,.
900 was to be floated this month, will
be rejected, because, with only one
exception, the tenders were at figures
lower than SO per cent of par, while
the total number of bonds bid for at
New York was only $55, 900. ..
Governor Pinkham received a cable
from Territorial Treasurer Conkling
this morning stating that only five
bids for the purchase of the Hawaiian
bond issue were received and opened
at New York yesterday. The message
said that the highest bid offered SO,
while the other four ranged downward
to 20. The territorial bonding act
sets 98 as the lowest figure at which
any territorial issue may be sold.
In consequence the governor cabled
Conkling today to reject all the east
ern tenders.
This does not mean that the bids
received at the treasury office at Ho-
nolulu by local investors yesterday
are to be rejected, however. On the
contrary the latter are accepted and
the sale Of at least $60,800 Of the
issue is thus assured at home.
This, says the governor, means that
the sale of the Hawaiian bond issue
in the main is probably postponed In
