Card

To the People of Lee County,
After 16 years of continuous
service as circuit court clerk of
the county, three years ago |
voluntarily retired from the of
flee. When | completed my last
term there | left the Office with
the determination never to be a
candidate for it again.
At the opening of the present
campaign many of my warm
friends solicited me to enter the
race for the office, assuring me
of their loyal support. While |
felt fattered, | decided that !
could better serve the people of
the county out of the office than
in it by devoting my entire time
to my paper, The Tupelo Journal.
My only ambition is to be a
useful citizen and my entire time
should be devoted to the paper
that | may aid in advancing the
material progress of the affairs
of the county.
Should | enter the race it would
become necessary for me to op-
pose some who have been at all
times my friends and political
supporters, and it would be ur-
pleasant to enter a contest
against them, which | shall not
do.
Assuring those who have SO.
licited me to become a candidate
and proffered their support, of
my appreciation, | remain,
Sincerely. your friend,
F. l.. KINCANNON.

does not always keep it down.
An instance is that of Admission,
Ala, which is a place of about
II, 900 people. The sentiment of
the town is against the sale of
whiskey within its limits and the
officers have endeavored, at the
risk of their lives, to put it down.
The blind tiger element, on the
other hand, have taken matters
in their own hands and during
the past eight months eight pc
licemen have been killed by the
blind tiger element of the city.
With this condition prevailing,
there seems to be no remedy, 'ex-
cept through the federal govern
ment, to put a stop to it. The
government must refuse to per-
NIT its manufacture. The states
are filed with murder and other
crimes through the illicit sales
and the civil authorities are pow
erless to eradicate the evil as
long as the government author
ICES its manufacture and importa-
ton.
The Tupelo journal., 1915-02-05
BLIND TIGER

A prominent citizen, who is in
position to know, stated to the
writer that blind tiger Whiskey
and pistols were the causes of a
great bulk of the crimes which
are reported daily in the papers.
The effort of the authorities to
enforce the prohibition laws have
cut down the sale of whiskey in
a great measure in prohibition
states, yet there seems to be no
adequate means through state
laws to suppress the blind tiger.
When the custer bill was passed
by the Tennessee legislature, au-
thorizing the government to re-
move sherifs of counties and
mayors of cities and towns be-
cause of their failure to enforce
the laws there was a rush all
over the state on the part of
these executive officers to rid
their communities Of the illicit
sale of liquor. In Memphis,
where liquor has been sold in
open disregard of the prohibition
laws of the state. the saloon men
were called upon to surrender
their federal license. They were
notified that they could no longer
violate the law by running open
saloons. Immediately following
the closing order of the mayor,
the blind tiger began to do bust
ness from back alleys.
Tennessee has what is known
as the four-mile law, which pre-
vents the sale of whiskey within
four miles of any school house.
Mississippi, Georgia and Texas
have state wide prohibition, while
Alabama and Louisiana have To-
cal option. Arkansas legislature
on Monday passed through the
house a statewide bill. In these
states there are many hundreds
of killings that result from the
blind tiger sale of whiskey. 1t
seems to be an evil that cannot
be suppressed. Officials are pow
%erless, however vigilant may be
their efforts to check the sale.
Mayors courts, justice courts
and circuit courts are used almost
entirely to punish offenders
against the prohibition laws in
the various states. yet, notWith-
standing the almost certainty Of
beng caught, there are some who
will continue to take the chances
and sell Whiskey.

To Regulate Price Of Cotton

Mr.. Editor:--I notice SO many
different ways to control the
price of cotton, and every one SO
far a total failure, | suggest we
have our legislatures in each
cotton state pass a law compelling
every one that raises a bale of
cotton to pay a PRIVILEGE tax of
S. on each bale. or 81 on each
100 pounds of lint cotton, and
turn this tax over to one man in
each cotton state. Let him give
bond for double the amount that
he may receive and let this tax
run for a period of three or four
years. Let the S. tax be one
share in this company and after
the third year let the men who
have this money buy enough
spot cotton to keep the price at
or near one thing, and let all the
exchanges run that wish to. and
everyone buy and sell when they
please.
When the men who have the
money can sell for a profit let it
go. Continue these operations
as often as they wish. and can
make a profit, and turn the
money back into these d~eposito-
ries. Then in a few years the
farmers of the cotton states will
have money enough of their own
to buy a full crop of cotton at a
reasonable price and still have
their crop on hand. If this can
be legally done it will work,
This is about the only plan that
will work. If a man gets money
out of a business he must put
some in the business. Of course
we will have to have warehouses
to store this cotton in. and can
have it compressed if we wish:
we will also have a better chance
to sell in large quantities and to
a better advantage.
The ginners can be used to
collect this tax at a small cost
and turn it over to the sheriff of
each county, who will in turn
give it to the proper authority in
his state. Let these tax receipts
be negotiable paper in the cotton
states so that if a man owes all
his cotton to a merchant he can
turn his shares over to the mer-
chant, who in turn can give them
to his creditors.
Let this company pay a dlvl-
dend after seven, eight or ten
years, as the case may be. We
should keep all this money until
we have enough to control the
price of our cotton and never be
caught in another trap like we
have this year. The cotton
states have lost this year at least
$500, 900, 900 or more. Had we
been in possession of this amount
of money to buy spots with and
lay away, we could have got 1OI
or lie for this crop. There is as
much danger ia cotton going too
high as there is in it going too
low, and this money is to be used
as a lever to raise or lower the
price in order to keep it at or
near the same thing throughout
the entire season. This money
is not to be used for any purpose
except to buy cotton.
Now, Nh. Editor, if you think
this worthy of consideration by
the cotton states, let it go, if not
send it to the waste basket.

U. S. DOLLAR BECOMES
WORLDS STANDARD.

During the past year Europe has
purchased from US billion dollars
worth OF supplies. chiefly foodstulfs
and munitions OF war. We in turn
nave absorbed many millions Of our
own bonds and stocks which have been
sent here for sale. Patriotism and the
opportunity to purchase bonds Of their
own government at favorable prices
have caused foreign capitalists to give
up our securities, many Of which had
been held abroad for twenty years
That prices of our securities have been
90 we'll maintained is, OF course, high
ly gratifying. There will doubtless be
millions more to follow in the next
twelve months.
On the other hand, the United
States Dollar is now the standard
measure OF value throughout the world
aud the cnly unit which is not below
par. When business transactions in
south America are discussed in terms
Of dollars instead OF pounds or marks,
a great advance has been made toward
the day when the financial center of
the world shall be in the UnitedStates;
but when that day arrives, its sun will
fash the light Of freedom from our
ilag on every sea. and in a hundred
ports, with a navy which will assure to
every American that same courteous
respect which is afforded every En-
