mere once-seeker who asks an honor which he has mol won, and oe-
ponds upon Office to supply the living which he is unable or unwili-
ing to make otherwise.
And it is sad to think that our state is being traversed and ar
Ired today by men who can only be described as professional poll
tcians who are seeking to destroy the mutual goodwill OF those who
win their livings at the desk and those who earn it by honorable toll
on the farm. Let US reegate such men to the obscurlty to when
they are native and besow our offices on those who have a right TO
claim our respect and do not ask us to elect them to office to give
them that living which they have not the honesty, industry and fru'
|galty to make in private life. Honorable ambition is one thing;
professional politics another. We will admit there is one class in
the state; an Objectionable class, and that is the class. We have no
predatory wealth" in Mississippi but we have some predatory ofhce
seekers, and some predatory cattle ticks, and both insects OF para
stical instincts and practices, and should be exterminated.

Governor Brewer is to speak here Monday and we anticipate
that a large crowd of Talahatchie citizens, as we'll as those from
other counties will be here to hear him, as well as to meet and greet
him. We have not been informed what the nature of the Cover
no's address will be, but from press reports of his speeches at other
places naturally suppose it will be along the same lines and in de-
tense of his administration, or rather an accounting of his steward
ship. Some are dsposedto critcise the Governor for these speeches
because of the necessity to envolve certain official politicians in his
accounting, but we fear those who are thus critical are biased bv
partisanship and not altogether fair to the rights of others. 1t is
just to the people that every official should give an accounting of
his administration and it has oeen a custom, not only in Mississippi
but in other states, for the Governor to address the people of his
state, not only on what has been accomplished by his administration,
but on the issues of the day as well. Whether Gov. Brewers ad-
ministration has been criticised does not enter upon his right to in
form the people of ther right to hear what he has done, OF whether
he has been true to the trust imposed upon him. We are glad that
we are to have the Governor with us and feel confidence in his jah]
ity to show a clean slate and that every promise has been faithfully
kept-Chareston Herald.

New York. March 29.-The history OF

Johnson will stand five and half

fighters are also far above the ring

the negroes IS inches. Will also prove
Of exceptional value If properly used
In all the measurements Of trunk and
limbs, Willard shows an advantage in
structure. muscle and chest eXpan-

To offset these physical assets John

that the champions offensive and de-

extent. In the closing rounds Of the
battle II is probable that endurance

part

''Beck's" Amen Corner

COMMON decency has scored the
first knockout in the Havana
battle. The fight has been postponed
from Easter Sunday to the follow
ing day. /
president BURT 0RNDORFF
of the chamber Of commerce
says that what FL Paso needs is a
big building for conventions. If Mr..
Orndorf viii arrange for the build
ing, the sport fraternity viii help
him keep it in use during the winter
with basketball, indoor baseball, and
other sports.
BAKERS are pretty active. We
have Home Run Baker as the
swat-king of baseball; HOBBY Baker
the hockey and football star of
Princeton and Homer Baker, the
great runner. And then we mustn't
forget the bakers who supply FL
Paso with the staff Of life.
DID you notice the many hits made
in the exhibition games of the
big league ball teams on Saturday
and Sunday? The figures in the @H"
column are not worrying the pitch
ers however, for when the real sea
son opens there will not be so much
swatting. The exhibition scores tell
mighty little.
RETTING on the Havana fight is a
mighty risky proposition. As
Stunning that the reports from Ha-
vana to the effect that johnson is
in fine physical condition are correct
and that Jack Curley is also correct
in saying the match is strictly on
the level" then the dope would not
give Jess Willard an awful big
chance for Jess did not impress the
writer as "such a much" in the way
Of ring generalship or ring knowl-
edge. But then one can't get away
from a certain bunch that the big
hope is due to win.
