LOBBYING is LEGAL.
Court Decision Accepts One Form and
Rejects Another.

The validity of lobbying contracts Is
discussed by the supreme court of
oregon in Hyland vs.. Oregon Hassam
Paving Company, in which the court
holds that any person interested in
any proposed legislation before any
legislative body, including the common
council or other lawmaking body Of q
municipal corporation, may legally
employ an agent or an attorney to COL
lect facts relating thereto and to pre-
pare bill, and to explain the desired
measure to the legislative body or any
committee thereof fairly and openly
and have it introduced, and a contract
to pay for such services, so rendered.
is not a violation of law or of public
policy
The court also passes on an agree
ment by which defendant engaged to
pay plaintiff per cent on all contracts
for street improvement work entered
into between 1t and city, to be earn
ed when the contracts should have
been duly signed by the company and
the city, such agreement providing
that plaintiff should "at all times do
everything in his power" to further the
business Of the company, 1t being con-
tempated that the plaintiff was to cir
culate petitions among property own
ers asking that streets be paved with
the company's product and obtain
signatures Of 20 per cent Of the prop
erty owners, to present such petitions
to the city council, to answer remon-
strances, and by bringing property
owners before the street committee
and the council to procure the passage
of ordinances and resolutions authoriz-
ing the paving Of streets and assessing
the expenses on the adjacent lots Such
agreement was treated as in effect a
selling or promoting contract, and in
view Of the fact that the compensation
was contingent and was broad enough
to cover services Of any kind, secret or
open, honest or dishonest, and the ex-
ercise Of personal and private influ-
ance upon the city council, and Of the
further fact that such compensation
was probably included In the com

TWO NEGROES TO
HANG In PUBLIC.
Dit Seals and Peter Bolen to
be Executed for an Afro
cious Murder.

The two negroes Dit Seals and
Peter Bolen will be publicly exc
cuted here on the 9th OF August,
this being the order passed by
the board of supervisors of Ok
tibbeha county at their meeting
Monday. The sheriff has been
instructed to perform this task
and make all necessary arrange
ments Tor the horrible affair.
In the order passed the follow
ing language was Incorporated:
"A public execution is ordered
by a majority of the board be-
cause of the atroclty of the CRIME
with which they stand convicted,
and believing that a public exc
eutlon will better impress upon
the minds Of the criminal the
of the law, and its ter
rors to those who would violate
the same. The board does not
invite anyone to attend this
gruesome tragedy, and urges the
parents to keep their children
away; but to those who desire to
witness so awful a scene, the way
shall be open to them %
These negroes wantonly mur
dered a young negro IN the EN-
ploy of the M. & 0. r. r. at the
A & M. College station. They
lured him to lonely spot about
a mile from the institution, and
after numbering him robbed his
person of thirty-five dollars, di-
viding the spoils between them.
They then endeavored to get
others to assist them in throw
ing the body in pool. but they
became rightened and the job
was never completed.
Both were sentenced to hang
last December but the case went
to the supreme court that body
affirming the dec,sicn of the low
er court a short time ago, and
re-sentenced the culprits to be
hanged on the 9th of August.
The gaIlows stands within a
stones throw OF the court house
in a picturesque spot resembling
an amphitheatre, and those who
att end will have no trouble IN
having a good view of the whole
scene 1t is expected that over
three thousand people will be
here on that day. Extra pre-
cautions will be taken by sheriff
Lee Nickels to have order and
for the purpose of carrying it IN
to execution he will have an ex
ira force of deputies on hand for
emergency.
AS on the former occasion,
Gov. Brewer will not interfere
IN nowlse with the carrying out
of the mandates of the law as the
highest court IN the state has
said the two negroes must hang.

1t is estimated that England has al
ready lost in the Great War more thar
she lost in all former wars together
While the loss has been due chief,
to the hard fighting in which the
British troops have participated, it Il
more than likely than England has
lost, on account of ignorance, in OK
perience, lack of preparation, and lack
of harmony in the management of af-
fairs, more men than the United
States has in its standing army In
view of the fact that we are now con-
sidering means of making ourselves
more secure against attack, and of
merely defending ourselves in case of
attack until we can prepare for Of
fensive measures, these unfortunate
experiences of the British should be
given serious consideration.
