LYING GROWN TO BE FACTOR OF
WAR, SAYS ROB'T MINOR
Lying has grown to- be a factor
in war, just as much as killing" said
RobT Minor, war correspondent and
cartoonist.
When an American newspaper
correspondent arrives at the front,
no matter what the country, he is
given to understand that the stories
he writes must be. favorable to the
country he is writing from. If his
stories are not favorable they are not
passed or are delayed. The writer's
lie to preserve their jobs.
It is interesting to note that the
political moves Of European diplO-
mats are being made almost exactly
as Minor six months ago predicted
when he was writing articles from
France and Switzerland for The Day
Book.
Since Germany sees it cannot
gain an overwhelming victory it is
anxious for peace, said Minor. Its
present attacks on Verdun are with
no intention of making a drive into
France, but are made solely to i'm
press England that she cannot gain
victory over Germany. The map of
Europe will hardly be changed from
what it was before the war.
"AH thatdiplomats may say to the
contrary, this was a war of trade, not
races, and the countries now see
that the investment is not going to
be worth the dividend and are anx.
ious to quit.
when the war is over the soldiers
who are left will return from the |
trenches to find their jobs filed with |
women who are working for less
money. The men will have to work |
harder for less and will have to |
shoulder the war tax burden besides. /
There is just a chance that the |

The large railroad systems OF
the country are endeavoring to
mold public opinion in opposition
to the contemplated nationwide
railroad strike. In today's Rev
ellie will be found an ADVERTISE

of railway employees, the main
contention of the advocates of a
strike. 1t appears to the writer
that the wages paid are already
high. The railroads offer to ar

SOLD WHOLE CROP.
L. S. Pearson Disposes Of Lespe-
deza Hay and Corn.

On Tuesday L. S. Pearson dis
posed Of his entire crop of lespede.
"a hay and corn to J. M. Taylor
and c. A. Elliott, local brokers.
The sale Is made before either of
the crops are harvested, and the
price, which is not made public,
seems to satisfy both producer and
purchasers.
Mr.. Pearson states that his les.
pedeza crop will be between 900
and 400 tons. and he expects to
harvest about 5000 bushels of corn
more than what he expects to re.
serve for seed and home consump-
tion.
The complaint is often made
that the local market Is inadequate
to take care of the various crops
raised in the county, but if pro-
ducers would take the trouble to
put their products on the market
in as excellent condition as does
Mr.. Pearson there would be no
trouble whatever in disposing of
everything.

II congratulate you and allgour

ties, and wish that 1 could bring
these greetings In person.
Cordially and sincerely yours,
WOODROW WILSON.
'Rev. DR.: Robert Price,
"Clarksville, Tenn"
The foregoing is of local interest
by reason of the fact that Rev. DR..
Price was pastor of Rodney Presby.
terian Chu.ch for a number of
years, afterward moving to Port
and Vicksburg churches,
and from the latter city was called
to place Ia the faculty of the
Southwestern Presbyterian Uni.
versity at Clarksville. The occa-
sion of the Presidents courteous
remembrance was DR.. Prices 86th
birthday anniversary. DR.. Price
was pastor at Rodney during the
Civil War and was holding servi-
ces in Rodney church at the time
that twenty marines from a U. S.
gunboat were captured by Lieut..
Cicero Allen and small force of
Confederates, at which time the
town was shelled by the gunboat
and the church was hit.-Fayette

Box Supper at Russum.

The box supper given at the
residence of Mr.. T. A. Mitchell at
Russum on the 10Th, was a great
success. 1t was given for the bene-
fit of the Russum School and quite
a sum of money was realized for
that purpose.
The crowd was the largest known
to assem- BILE on such an occasion in
this part of the county. Approx
imately there were one hundred
and dfty people from Claiborne
and Jefferson counties. A splen-
did band from Lorman made ex-
cellent music which was much en-
joyed by all until late hour when
the audience dispersed fully ap-
preciating the hospitality of Mr..
and Mrs. T. A. Mitchell. -

Unless Germany has great re

advancing Allies, there seems no
hope of the central powers win

more than three weeks the Allies
have been pressing the Germans

ing prisoners and guns; aud it is
claimed that the Germans, the
dominating influence with the CEN

Judicial Criticism Of Cook Verdict.

Judicial Criticism Of Cook Verdict.
In receiving the verdict of the
Jury in the case against DR.. E. R.
Cook, recently tried IN the Circuit
Court of this County, Judge Robert
Anderson, the trial Judge quietly
informed the Jury that be could
not understand by what process of
reasoning they could reach such a
conclusion from the testimony
introduced before them. At the
same time, he characterized the
verdict as an outrage and scandal
Gus upon the good name of War
ren County.
This was merely the opinion of
a just and honest man aud Judge,
who did not impugn the motives
or the honesty of the men whose
verdict be felt called upon to
criucise.
The opinion and criticism of
Judge "Bob" Anderson was given
in such a quiet aud dignified way,
without the least show of prejudice
and feeling that it did not arouse
resentment or ill feeling from the
Jurors whose verdict was the sub.
ject of his remarks.
That Judge Anderson had the
right, and that it was a part of his
judicial duty, to offer his honest
comment on the Jury's finding no
reasonable man should question.
That a genuine and wholesome
good will follow the free aud
honest expression OF criticism of a
verdict that does not bear the i'm.
print of healthy law enforcement
spirit no just man will deny.
However earnest and honest the
members of the jury in this case
may have been in reaching the
verdict of not guilty, and all credit
is given here that they felt justi-
fed in their decision, the honest
opinion and criticism of Judge
Anderson of verdict that was
hurtful to a community, ought to
be received and appIauded by al
law abiding unselfish people,

Soldiers Graves Marked.

All known graves of Confederate
soldiers are now marked, I3o In
the Protestant cemetery, 10 in the
Catholic ana 3 IN the Jewish. We
have also sent out into the county
90 markers TOR the various chap
ters to place.
Port Gibson has the distinction
Of being the 6rst town to decorate
the soldiers graves after the civil
war. We chose the first day of
May in memory of the Port Gibson
battle upon that date. The first
day of May, 1866. few ladies of
the town assembled, gathered flow
ers which they placed upon the
graves. Since that day they have
been remembered annually. A few
years later the Veterans and Sons
of Veterans assisted In these hon.
ors. They selected a speaker
(think Capt. A. ]. Lewis was the
first speaker), and secured a band
to make the exercises more inter-
esting.
As we, one by one, pass over
the river" our duties will be taken
up by others. and the graves re-
membered always.

IMPROVED MACHINERY.
Another Clover IIuller and Trac-
tor Brought Here Monday.

F. c. Coffman and ]. l. Har-
rlson. Kentucky and Tennessee
farmers, who came into the county
last year, received Monday a clover
huller and traction engine. They
hull their own crops of clover and
those of the neighborhood. The
engine will not only be used to
operate the huller, but will be the
power with which the ground for
another crop will be broken. The
odtft cost in the neignborhood of
$500.
This Is the second huller to come
iuto county. S. P. Headley boaght
one about two months ago. Two
other tractors bave been In oper-
alton In the county for several
months. Samuel Pearson used
them on St. Albans plantation last
spring. He operated them both
day and night during the breaking
season.
Improved machinery is rapidly
taking the place of the old slow
and expensive methods of farming
in vogue the past century III this
county.

SUNDAY LAW ENFORCEMENT.

Port Gibson is one of the tev
communities in Mississippi whcr,
ante bellum ideas and customs are
vigorously maintained.
And Port Gibson is also one OIL
the few communities anywhere
that enforce Puritanical blue law;
on the Sabbath day. In that dear
old town there is no such thing as
having can OK in the ditch" on
STANDARDIZATION News.
The Vicksburg Post gave ex.
preston to similar criticism,
This is not surprising. The
cities in which these papers are
published scarcely could be called
models of law enforcement, nor
would it be altogether proper to
say that either OF these journals
represent the highest type of Jour-
naIism.
The criticism of the News is not
published for controversial pur-
pose, but to ask those who fre.
quent the business part of town on
Sunday if 1t doesen't appear that
the News has unintentionally
sprung ajoke?
Whether these laws are "blue"
or cred" they are laws-good laws
and are sadly in need of enforce
ment. But good or bad, it is the
duty OF all officers to make an ef-
fort to enforce all laws. They are
under oath to do so, and may be
removed from office if they fail.
But this is not the only recource
to secure enforcement; there is
no question that the grand jury
will indict and that circuit court
jury will convict.
The Sunday law excerpts the
sale of essentials, and common
sense readily points these out. 1t
does not forbid that a man kiss
his wife on Sunday, as these two
journals of high moral standard
would have the public believe, but
it does draw a distinction between
the way the affairs Of town may
be carried on on the Sabbath as
compared with other days.

Should sloan'g Liniment Go Along9

OF course it should For after strenu-
Gus day when your muscles have been
exercised to the limit an application of
Sloan s Liniment will take the soreness
and stiffness away and get you in fine
shape for the morrow. You should also
use it for a sudden attack of toothache
stiff neck, backache, stings, bites and the
many accidents that are incidental to a
vacation. I'VE would as soon leave out
baggage as go on a vacation or camp out
without SIoan's Liniment. Writes one

from cramps to toothache. Put bottle

day. Before the crop was planted
it will be remembered that the

cotton acreage, pointing out that

farmers were influenced by the
