Salem Consolidated
School Opening

The third annual session of the Salem
Consolidated school will begin Monday,
Sept. 18th, 1915, al 9o'clock. The peo-
pie Of the community and county as
we'll are cordially invited to be present
on the opening day. There will be ad-
dresses by men interested in the school
work, and we earnestly urge that every
child and parent of the district be pres
ent. Let's all work together for a
good school, one that will be second to
none in the county, and we will have
it..
Much depends on us as parents and
teachers in the kind Of school we have.
We may expect out Of the school just
what we put into it. So let's pull on
the same string and pull in the same
direction and we will contribute our
share of that trained and efficient citi-
zenship for which the State is paying
and expecting to receive at our hands.
If we expect the right kind of product
we must furnish the right kind of pro-
cess, that of cooperation with one an
other for our children and for the COM
mon good of the community.

A Good Selection.

The appointment by Governor
elect Bilbo of Mr.. w. ]. Buck
as private secretary is meeting
with general commentator. The
following is tahen from the
Jackson News regarding the
appointment
IF Governor-elect Bilbo keeps
up the standard of appointments
established by his first selection,
there will be little complaint
to make concerning this feature
of his administration.
Announcement is made that
MIR. w. J. Buck will be retained
in the executive office as private
secretary, a position he'has filled
with exceptional ability under
three administrations.
"Mr. Buick entered the Gov
ernor's office in this capacity
toward the close of the Varda-
man administration. He was re-
tanned by Gov. Noel and also by
Gov. Brewer, giving entire salts
faction to these officials.
Since Mr.. Buck entered the
Governors office there has been
a very heavy increase in the
volume of routine business, but
he has a remarkable capacity
for work, and has always kept
the calendar clean, d~isposing of
all matters pending before the
close Of the day. 1t is a fact
not known to the general public,
but TIE Governor of Mississippi
does rot see one-fourth of the
correspondence addressed to him,
all routine matters being han
died by the private secretary. 1t
is important, therefore, that a
capable man be selected for this
responsible place, and the next
Governor of Mississippi has
chosen wisely and WE'LL"

NOTICE

All cows from which milk is sold
must be tested for tuberculos between
now and Dec. 1st, 1915. If no reactors
is found in the herd this test will not
be required for two years but if any
reactors are found the herd in which
they are found will have to be tested
every year. This means that milk from
cows not tested for tuberculosis must
not be sold, so think it the best plan for
each dairyman to have not only the
cows tested from which he is selling the
milk but all that he expects to add to
his herd during the next two years.
The local veterinarian. DR.. Barclay,
has agreed to make these test for the
following prices:
| SO head or W at. 80 cts Der head
rs head or over up to SO for. $3.50
Any number of dairymen can 90 in
together if the herds are at the same
place so that all can be tested at the
same time.
Any number below rs will be 81. 90
per head up to Is. If fewer than Is
the price will be determined between
the veterinarian and the dairyman.
This arrangement will reduce the cost
OF the work very materially and if the,
dairymen in each neighborhood combine
their herds the cost will not be vcry
great.
50 head is all that can be tested in %
hours.
would suggest that this work be
started at once so that every dairy
herd IN the county will have been test
ee by Dec. LIST.
No test will be accepted unless made
by a licensed or graduated veterinarian.

Chief County Health Officer.

FACTIONALISM IN
POLITICS.

Leaving out Of consideration
the evil influence that factionaI-
ism has exerted in State politics
and State affairs in the last half
dozen years, the sinister effect it
has had in county affairs and in
local politics is sufficient to con-
denim it in the eyes Of all men.
The best interest Of the county
has too often been ruthlessly
sacrificed to the wishes of a
small coterie Of politicians in
jackson or elsewhere, and county
candidates voted for, not on ac-
count Of their merits, but re-
CARELESS of their qualifications or
deserts, elected or defeated be-
cause they were supporters OF
such and such a man for Cover
nor or some other Office. Every
thing has been subordinated to
faction, and if the State and the
people of the State profit by this
condition Of affairs, a miracle
will have happened.
In a great measure Noxubee
county has been free of this
fault that is, a majority of its
voters have been free Of it. The
minority, however, if the unani-
nous local opinion be correct, has
lined up pretty solidly. But if
this was done, it was not done
openly. Professedly by all, GER
tainly by most of the voters of
the county, both State and conn
ty candidates were voted on
regardless of their political anil-
iations.
Noxubee's attitude was shown
by it's vote for Wood, Of Winston
county, for Land Commissioner.
He was from an adjoining coun-
ay, a worthy man, and We gave
him ninety per cent. of our vote.
His own county gave him a much
smaller proportion of its vote,
because he was on "the ticket

gave to all what it only demands
for itself-the right Of individual

Binion, the Law Entorcer.

The following. taken from the Okla

friends in Noxubee, where he was born
md spent his early life. Cavett was a
'tudent Of our first public schools under
Mr.. Simonds, and after Mr.. Thos.

Eighties, and that he has made good
5 evidenced by the following:
Sheriff NJ. G. Binion, generally
inown among his close associates
vs. "Cap' doesn't do much nosin'
round but when he takes a notion
o raid there's nothing that can
stop him.
He's the sort that acts only
when he's got some definite infor.
nation about law violation. Give
BiniOn a warrant to raid or seize
a joint and he'll gear up to high
right off. a whole army of Euro
pean soldiers would have a diff.
cult job in preventing the sheriff
from getting immediate action on
Il warrant from the court. When
Binion raids there's no "half.do-
it, tolerated. He sweeps every.
thing as he goes and leaves a trial
that appears to have been wreck
ed by a tornado.
To Binion the court is a sacred
Institution. There's no alternat-
i've about the courts orders with
him. They must be obeyed speed.
lily and thoroughly. Binion's idea
of law enforcement is not to be
everlastingly sneaking up on some.
one. His idea is hat the county
attorney and citizens directly af-
fected by non enforcement of the
law should do the complaining and
that the sheriff should always be
ready to act when a complaint is
made. Understand that Binion
wouldn't pass up a bootlegger if
he caught him in the act. He
wouldn't stand for any fragrant
violation, warrant or no warrant.
He would take the violator in too
mighty quick.
But the sheriff goes on the theory
that ordinarily it's up to the prose.
cutors to complain and that the
sheritfs uncompromising duty is
to investigate h complaints
made.
Binion's idea about doing his
duty was well illustrated when
Jess Willard was sued here some
months ago. The natural inclin-
alton Just at that time would have
been to let the popular hero slip
out of the city without being serv.
ed. 1t was after midnight. Jess
secreted himself in his private car
and detied for a time all the efforts
of Binion to enter. The sheriff
finally showed some eight" him.
self and despite the threats of the
heavyweight champion and idol
commenced to batter his way to
Jess hiding place, And, seeing
that resistance was of no use, jess
accepted service.

the sheriff sadly related after the
incident. "But the papers had to
be served"
If service were wanted on the
President of the United States and
it was Binion's duty, the President
of the United States would be
served.
Binion, unlike some of the other
law enforcers in the city and coun-
ty now, is not young at the game.
He was elected for a second time
at the last election. He faced
both times on strict law enforce.

Society has a right to protect
itself from criminals and to use
every proper means to preserve
order and to promote justice. If
this right requires the infiction
of capital punishment, the death
penalty may be imposed. To take
life is not necessarily evil. God
has ordered many persons slain ;
a man in selfdefense may kill his
assailant nations at war destroy
many men. SO, society may
hasten the death of a criminal.
The welfare of the community
is superior to the right of an in
dividual, who has proved him
self unworthy Of freedom and
life, to live until accident or dis
ease carries him off. The State
has a perfect right, in pursuance
of it's duty. to repress rhine to
put him to death. Sentiment
must not be allowed to set aside
justice and the law Of God.
