Hotel Monaghan

Mr.. w. A. Monaghan, who for
80 years was the proprietor of
the Hotel Monaghan, has leased
the Hotel Read and opened up
this famous hostelry to the trav-
cling public under the name of
The Hotel Monaghan.
Mr.. Monaghan's experience
and popularity as a hotel man is
known throughout the state and
he will no doubt find many old
patrons ready to welcome him
again as a host.
The hotel will be thoroughly
renovated and every accommoda-
ton will be afforded its patrons.
Mr.. Monaghan is too young and
active a man to quit business at
this time of life and his return
to the hotel business will afford
him an opportunity to again dis
play his activities in line in
which he is entirely familiar.

W. E. Clopton

The friends of Mr. M. L. Clop-
ton deeply sympathize with him
in the loss he sustained in the
death of his brother. Mr.. w. E.
Clopton. who died the past week
at Marshall, Texas. Mr.. Clopton
had been making his home at
Lensburg, La, for several years
and was taken seriously i'll with
malarial fever. His father and
mother and brother were sum-
moned to his bedside and it was
thought advisable to remove him
to the home of his parents at
Hallsville. Texas. En- route there
his condition grew worse and he
was taken from the train at Mar
shall and died a few hours later.
The body was taken to Hallsville
for interment.
Mr.. Clopton lived in Tupelo
about two years ago, being asso-
ciated with his brother. He made
many friends here who regret to
learn of his death. He was a
quiet. unassuming man and made
friends among all who knew him.
He leaves a wife and two child
rem. father and mother, two
brothers and sisters to mourn his
untimely death.

information as to the needs Of
other sections and the best time
and the highest markets for
their products.
Railroads preach diversification
because they know that oniy
through diversification can any
agricultural section succeed. Mr..
Anderson stated that the old
theory of the long haul being the
best for the railroads was no
longer accepted as the true prin-
sciple 81 raisfeading Roads have
found that there is money in the
short haul. AS Mr.. Anderson
stated, the roads make money
out of the haul of the food pro-
ducts this section buys from the
west, yet it has been demon
strated that the roads can make
more money from the business
of a section where diversification
is 4practiced than they can where
only a few industries or crops
predominate.
The meeting here will open
the way for a clearer under
standing between the officials of
the Frisco and our people and we
can safely predict that the road
will be ready at any time to CO.
operate with our people in every
undertaking in which there is a
community of interest.

Getting Togther

There was held during the past
week in Tupelo conference be-
tween the officials of the Frisco
railroad and the business men of
sTupelo. 1t was the purpose of
Athose in charge of the conference
Ito entertain the visitors at a bar
sbecue at Reese's we'll but the
ainclement weather made it
necessary to serve the dinner
I in the dining room of the Hotel
Read, where a most elegant re-
past was served.
The officials of the Frisco came
in response to an invitation from
the business men for the purpose
/ of talking over those things in
which the railroad and the towns
and the people generally, along
their line, are interested. It was
a kind of "get-together" meet
ing and the officials and the
business men were both gratified
to find the same sentiment pre-
vailing that will undoubtedly re-
suit in common good to all.
Mr.. Allen stated the purposes
of the meeting very clearly and
Mr.. Anderson, on the part of the
road, replied in a short talk,
slating that the road desired, in
dealing with the patrons of its
line, to render every assistance
possible to advance every inter-.
est and to let the people UNDER
stand that they could expect a
liberal spirit on the roads part
in every department.
In the past railroads have been
operated from Offices in New
York, where the financial end of
the business was looked after,
and this policy has resulted in
many lines being forced into
Bankruptcy. The past few years,
however: the roads have learned
that their officials should get
close to the people, learn their
needs, cultivate their friendship
and wherever reasonable, accede
to their demands. 4
On the other hand, the people
have recognized the rights of the
railroads and have learned TO
appreciate their necessity. With
this spirit prevailing on both
sides the very near future will
bring results satisfactory to both
the railroads and the people.
The officials are now directing
their efforts to aid the people in
educating themselves in a busi-
ness way. They are offerir g
practical suggestions as to the
location of business enterprises,
to diversifcation of crops and
the best markets. Experts wi o
study these questions are in
charge of the various depart
ments and every railroad that
serves an agricultural section has
its department through which its
natrons can gain all necessary

Cotton DAMAGED by Rain


The rains of the past ten days
have retarded cotton picking and
the staple has been badly DAM
aged. The rains. the first on the
Goth Of September, the last on
Monday, were the hardest that
have fallen in this country for a
long time. The first rain was
the heaviest ever recorded by our
weather bureau here within "a
hours since records have been
kept. The rainfall for that "a
hours was 8. 72 inches.
