on Governors Race.

To the People of Mississippi:
In order that may avoid answering
large number of inquiries regarding
speech made by me at Pontotoc on
the 7th inst. have determined to give
the press the statement which follows:
1t has been my purpose from the be-
ginning Of the campaign for governor
to remain absolutely neutral. Four of
the candidates have been my friends in
the past, and l trust they are my
friends still. cheerfully acknowledge
my obligations to them for support in
the past campaign. They are men of
character and ability and are amply
able to take care of themselves in this
contest. | had hoped that | would not
be forced to say anything one way or
the other more than have already said
regarding the campaign for the guber-
material nomination, but it seems that
my political enemies will not permit me
to remain altogether silent.
While they contend that | have no
influence in the state, and am willing
for the sake of this discussion to admit
it. yet every speech | make is misin-
terpreted for the purpose apparently of
injuring Lieut.. Governor Bilbo by max
ing it appear that am antagonistic to
him, which is untrue. For instance,
certain words imputed to me in my
speech at Pontotoc are construed as
condemnation of Bilbo, which is alto
gether without authority of fact or
justification by any rule of interpreta-
tion of the English language.
My denunciation of the bribe- taker
and the bribe-giver had no reference to,
nor was it in any way condemnation
of Bilbo. The truth is. think Cover
nor Bilbo did the people of Mississippi
a great service when he exposed the
bribery and rascality of that band of
character assassins and debauchers of
Legislators who outraged the legislature
of 1910, and defeated the will of the
people of the state in the senatorial
election at that time. For the service
rendered by Blbo to the people of the
state at that juncture of the states
history have always felt the deepest
gratitude and think the people of
Mississippi share my feelings.
] Now. to put forever at rest any
question about my position, want it
distinctly understood that have as
much faith in Bilbo' capacity and fidel-
ity to meet and perform the duties of
the Offices of governor as any man who
is aspiring to it. He has proven his
capacity to take care of himself, and so
far as know, he only asks for square
deal from the people of the state who
are to name Mississippi's next COVER
nor. l hope that the misrepresenta-
tions of my enemies will not make il
necessary for me to say anything else
with reference to my position in this
campaign. 1t is unfortunate that the
race has been characterized by so much
villification and Misrepresentation; this
should be eliminated and the white
Democrats of the state permitted tt
vote their convictions without refer
ence to anything except the qualfica
tions of the candidate.

The so-cal!ed Hard Time" and un-
settled business conditions during the
past few months has caused many con
servative people to adopt the cash sys-
TEN in their homes with the view of
reducing living expenses to the mini
mum. But while they have possibly
bought less than heretofore, they have
been paying the same prices paid under
the old "credit or monthly plan"
We are glad to announce, therefore,
that in order to encourage the cash
movement we will give "Cash Discount
Checks" amounting to 10 per cent of
the amount purchased from US after
May %.
These checks will be given with all
cash sales amounting to ten cents or
more, and will be redeemable at our
market for their full face value
Just little figuring on the part OF
our friends will show that they will be
able to save a neat little sum on their
meat bill each month, and while it will
cut into our profits considerably we
hope cut our collecting expenses as
we'll as loss on some bad accounts which
will take care of the discount given.
Trusting the new plan will meet with
public approval and pledging ourselves
to give the best service and values pos
sible at all times, we are respectfully.

LABOR PEACE
IN PROSPECT
FOR CHICAGO
(By Associated Press.

CHICAGO, July 14.-Capitalists and
labor leaders alike expressed salts
faction with the announcement this
morning that impending trouble be-
tween organized painters and metal
workers and their employers in Chi
cago has been averted, and that the
grievances of the men are to be sub
mitted to board of arbitration for ad-
justment. Pending a decision by this
board there will be no interruption Of
building operations.
Chicago recently witnessed two
great industrial DISTURBANCES, being
the walk-out of 10000 carpenters and
the strike of the street car operatives,
each being settled by arbitration. The
outlook now is for long era of cor
dial relations between the workmen
and Chicago's contractors, and much
industrial activity temporarily held
up because OF anticipated delays, will
go forward rapidly.

SKELETON Of MAMMOTH
FOUND IN ENGLAND

LONDON, July 1.-The skeleton Of
mammoth one of the largest ever
found, is being disinterred near Chat
ham, in the south of England, by a
staff of scientists from the British
museum.
The creature was about IL feet high
and the tusks measure nine feet each.
Isolated bones of the species Lave been
discovered in England before, but
never a complete skeleton.
Great care is exercised in excavating
the bones, and as each is uncovered, it
is cased in plaster of paris and re-
moved to a warehouse. Some of the
bones are so heavy that it requires
four men to lift them Oh truck.

daughter of Emperor Francis Joseph
of Austria, who, because she was a
victim of MOTHER LOVE, has had
to live life of unhappy recognition
to satisfy the hollow pride of royal
court-this is the startling confession
made today in ''The Secret of an En-

guise of remarkable volume signed
by the Countess Zanardi-Landi and
just issued by the Houghton-Mifflin

countess asks herself, Immediately
she has explained that she is the
