dacy of Hon. Marion w. Reilly of

More About Cleaning Up.

Editor Sentinel: The general interest
in the ''cleanest city contest" has turn
ed the eyes of all those interested in
our own city to the observation of her
streets While we have Indignantly de-
MED the charge of open sewerage we
must admit that pools of green, NAL
odorous water greet US at many points.
There are numberless complaints as to
the condition of sewerage in our graded
school building as well as in some of
the important buildings on the Square.
Also We are told on every side, that
conn ection with city sewer has not been
made in a score of places where it
should have been. The health officer
has urged it, the mayor insisted. and
still these citizens encourage the pests
OF housetiles, mosquitoes and typhoid
by harboring nuisances on their premis-
es. This is crying shame, disgrace
TO our town.
Tin cans, broken bricks, loose papers
We have with US also, but these, while
unsightly. are not absolutely dangerous
and unhealthy as the standing water,
unsanitary toilets and earth vaults are

--O N c A N &
f. R. Thomas Announces
For Supervisor, Beat 4.

Mr.. E. r. Thomas authorizes the an
nouncement of his candidacy for the Of
nee of supervisor from district of
Grenada county.
Mr.. Thomas was born and reared in
Ialiahatchie county, being a son of
Jonathan G. Thomas, and is now fifty
years of age, an age which the expert
ence and observation gained should
make him see the better things in life
and qualify him for the highest and
best service which he ever rendered
either as father and husband or as a
citizen.
1t is fair to assume that one of Mr..
Thomas age should utilize the blessings
nature has showered upon him for the
public veal. He has a good farming
interest, is in favor of good cattle and
stock raising and other things incident
thereto. His business interest, it would
appear, would make him careful about
public expenditures and taken altogeth-
er undoubtedly the voter, even If he
did not know him, would be safe in as
suming that he was capable of making
his people faithful and satisfactory
supervisor. Mr.. Thomas states that he
enters the race only at the urgent So
licitation of many voters.

GOV. BREWER
ANSWERS CRITICS.
Enthusiastically Received at

A special dispatch from Gulfport tc
the New Orleans Times Picayune, under
date of April says: In the presence
of vast concourse of voters of Harri-
son and nearby counties. Gov. Brewer
this afternoon in two-hour speech de-
Tended his administration against the
defamation of certain politicians, pay
ing his respects in no uncertain terms
to Senator Lee Russell and Candidate
Theodore Bilbo.
The Governor went into details con-
corning investigations of alleged crook
ed deals he had made and what his
probing uncover d, touching on the re-
iuctance of certain lawmakers to pay
this expense, yet willing to appropriate
large sum to investigate State insti-
tutions which found little more than a
professor at State institution feeding
his pigs with swils from the States
kitchen and few minor offenses, none
of which resulted in the States OBJ
tanning any amount of money worth
mentioning. He told his hearers that
he expects to pay into the State Treas
urv two for one on every dollar expend-
ed by him in investigations.
The Governor was in fine fettle. and
his speech was one Of the strongest
ever heard in this section. At its con-
clusion he said, Il want every man
here who stands for good government,
who is with me in my light on crooks
in the high places to come forward and
let me shake his hand.
The crowd fairly surged about the
Governor. and it was only a few who
turned away withou. shaking the hand

called for mourners and they came for

DISCUSSES CROP

Mckay Of the A. &. NJ. Col.
lege Talks-Many Show
Great Interest at
Meeting.

j. F. Mckay of the A. & M. College
farm marketing department was in
Grenada Monday by invitation of the
Grenada county live stock and crop d.
versitication association and made an
ADDRESS to the association and numerous
others, altogether about $50 farmers
and merchants and others of Grenada.
Mr.. Mckay was presented in a few
well chosen words by w. F. Martin.
president of the association, and at
once began thoroughly practical and
interesting address. Mr.. Mckay first
took up the matter of cooperation be-
tween the town and the country ON
marketing and cited numerous instances
of what was being done elsewhere. He
showed how wisely it would be for the
farmers to join themselves together in
shipping hogs by the carload or indeed
anything else. Various questions were
asked the speaker by different ones in
the audience all of which he answered
readily and with an intelligence that
showed ready grasp of what he was
undertaking.
MIR. Mckay told of the cooperative
creameries that are now doing such ex-
cellent service in the state. There are
six now in the state, one at each of the
following places: StarkvilIe. Macon,
Meridian, Jackson, McComb City and
West. He said these were ample for
the present to meet every demand of
the commonwealth. He said the farm
ers and stock men of this section could
easily patronize the one at West, that
the Illinois Central railroad was not on
ltr hat 4 Nk, IL 10 g.
10 cents for can of 5 gallons. but was
furnishing the man to operate the
creamery; and what was being done by
the railroad for the creamery at West
was being done in every other part of
the state.
Mr.. Mckay discussed the raising of
different food crops for stock and one
thing he especially emphasized was the
pea crop. He stated that the farmers
of the state during the past winter had
sold peas enough to pay all their taxes.
or 81 900, 900 worth. He urged that
haste be made slowly. 1t was develop.
ed during the delivery of his talk that
200 acres of Irish potatoes were being
planted in the vicinity of Holcomb.
Mr.. Mckay urged that Grenada mer-
chants arrange for trade day" fol
Grenada. He stated that other places
had found it to work we'll for every in
terest of the farmer as well as the
merchant. There was marked interest
in all that was said and done, and, con-
sidering the fact that it was such &
beautiful day for the farmer to looE
after affairs at home and the busy sea
son just coming upon them, the number
present was highly gratifying.

name of Mr. E. l.. Atkinson who seeks
reelection to the office of supervisor
from district 5.
Mr.. Atkinson has served on the board

best service of which he is capable and
that the people of beat may rest as
sured that he will do all that lies in his

They are such dear familiar feet that go
Along the path with ours-feet fast slow
And trying to keep pace; if they mistake
Or tread upon some flower that would take
Upon our breast bruise reed
Or crush poor hope until it bleed,
We must be mute,
Not turning quickly to impute
Grave fault; tor they and
Have such little way to go--can be
Together such little while along the way
We will be patient while may.
SO many little faults find.
We see them, tor not blind
Is love. We them but if you and |
Perhaps remember them, some by and BY,
They will not be
Faults then--grave fauits--to You and me.
But just odd ways-mistakes or even less
Remembrances bless,

We see differently in and showers.
Mistaken words tonight
May be cherished by tomorrows light.
We must be patient; for know
There's such little way to go.

Delivers Ultimatum

Charlotte Observer.
Albemarle, July 1S.-County Judge
O. ]. Skies has just received an ap-
plication for peace warrant by a
citizen Of Stanly county, producing as
grounds for demanding the same a
very unusual letter, which would seem
to be somewhat in the nature of an
ultimatum. In fact it can be con-
strued as nothing less than an ulti-
matum ccuched in no uncertain Ian
guage and had the recipient been one
with strong military spirit the in
evitable result would have been a
prompt declaration of war.
Being good Bryan democrat. how
ever imbued with spirit Cf peace,
the gentleman decided to let reason
and common sense he his guide rather
thar brute force and hence ap-
peal to the strong arm of the law.
That the spirit is predominant in the
writer of this unique letter, or ncte,
may he seen in the full text Of the note
given below:
"Old Camps Grafton:

on our land for if we cetch you one

The note is duly signed by the party
NAL ing the protest, and while the
terms are very mandatory, the note is
not intended as fair sample Of Stanly
County diplomacy.
