The farmers of this sectien are no
little disturbed about the continued
drouth, and well may they be so far al
early corn 10 concerned. The old say.
ing among farmers, "a dry May and
June for a good crop year. is among
the c~onsoling things for them at thin
time. Old corr is suffering very ma
terially and in fact if there is not q
rain within a few days 1t will be prac-
tically a failure. Cotton. too. is suffering
for rain, that is the plant growth is being
retarded and fruitage is being discour-
aged, nevertheless the fields are free
from grass and everything is in readi.
ness for the rains, which will no doubt
come in time to make a big crop. Tns
only menace so far as cotton is con
cerned is the boil weevil which is re"
ported in large numbers in almost ev
cry part of the county.

There was a little commotion it two
or three little stores in Grenada Mon
day when Sheriff West made a demand
of them fo- $500 privilege license for
the beverage being sold, supposed to
be "near beer" or something closely
kin to it. There was some d~ivulgence
of opinion among the lawyers about
the construction of the statute but the
sheriff was thoroly fixed in his ideas:
The figures are very plain and it would
appear that there could be no ambigu-
GUS meaning to the law and that when
it says $500 it means just that. 1t re-
mains to be seer what will be the out
come. Sheriff West IS to be commend
ed for insisting on the letter of the Law
in regard to such matters. Grenada
wants no ''nears" in hers.

The Injustice Of Mr.. Slsson.

political Advertisement, written by E.
! T. Winston. of the s. A. Morrison
Campaign Committee. Grenada,
Miss.)
Congressman T. u. Sisson is mailing
out to the voters of his district, under
the government frank" or free mail
ing privilege, a speech of Congressman
H. D. Stephens, Of the Second district,
covering explanation Of the latter's
vote on the Flood Resolution, one Of
the Mexican war measures. Enclosed
in the same envelope with Mr.. Ste
phens' speech is q typewriter letter,
signed by Mr.. Sisson, in which he
(Sisson) adds his ''me too" to the
Stephenson proposition.
In doing this Mr.. Sisson is unjust to
Mr.. Morrison, because Morrison has to
pay government postage on every piece
of literature that is mailed from his
headquarters.
Mr.. Sisson is unjust to his govern
ment, because he unwarrantably. taxes
the postal department with the circula-
| ton of his campaign thunder.
Mr.. Sisson is unjust to the written
law, because he violates the Federal
| statute which forbids the use of the
Thanking privilege to congressman for
other than public business.
Mr.. Sisson is unjust to his colleague
.(Stephens) in that he transcends the
code of moral ethics which requires
"every tub to stand on its own bottom
in a political fight. He uses another
congressman to rake his W chestnuts
out of the fire.
Mr.. Sisson is unjust to the nationa
law.making body of which he Isl mem
Der, because he justifes his W course
with the assumption that all the res
were dishonest. He says: "Nine-
tenths of the members of congress tool
the same view of the situation that Mr.
Stephens and l did. and if they hat
voted their honest convictions would
have voted as we did," ,
Mr.. Sisson is unjust to the Demo
cratic party, because he failed to stant
by it in a crisis.
Mr.. Sisson is unjust to his Democratic
c~onferres in congress and to the Demo
cratic rulers of the nation in that he Sc
his opinion against them all.
Mr.. Sisson is unjust to the people o

long while. Hon. Marion w. Reilly Of

accepted an invitation to make the ad-
dress of the day. Mr.. Reilly is an en-
t~husiastic Woodman and his coming to
Grenada will give him an opportunity

of girlhood to share life's cloud and
sunshine with the nan Of her hearts
choice.
The decorations of the charming Nc
Lean home were complete in every de-
tail, and lovely beyond words. Starry
daisies had been chosen as the keynote
of this beautiful affair.
The table was exquisite with a mound
of these blossoms, glowing with golden
light from the yellow shaded candles.
The honoree's place was especially
marked by a corsage bouquet of Shasta

pitality, was made especially lovely for
this occasion with wicker baskets and

green and gold motif. The fair homo
rec wore white with touches of yellow.
Miss Dor Mcleod rendered a number
of popular and classical selections that
added to the hours pleasure.
