FROM THE PEOPLE.

| To the Editor Of The BEACON.
l see my good friend. F. A. T., hal
given me credit for introducing . bill
containing a redemption claus sc in
mortgages; while the enactment of such
q measure is cherished hope, still I'm
not the author of either Of the three
ills = one in the senate and two in the
house for the reason that while inves-
tigating the statutes upon the subject
in the different states, these bills were
prepared and introduced by young men
who are ambitious and hsve hopes Of q
political future. which does not appeal
to man Of my age. Hence I'm act
ing conjointly (he assuming authorship
Of The measure) with Senator Adams
of Pontotoc, with the hope that q bill
may be eventually framed that will
meet the requirement Of the common
wealth of the state, and become a fix
ed statute.
The observations and experiences of
F. A. T. while citizen of the State Of
Illinois, both before and after the en-
sctment of the redemption rights,
should be good argument in favor of
a like statute in Mississippi.

The corn club work 10 not new to a
great many boys Of the county Who

year, having the assurance of the state
agent that he will be of active help to

Der Of our boys will enlist who have not
done so heretofore. 1t is my earnest
desire to enroll as many as one hun
dred boys in the corn club. Write me
at once of your desire to become a
member, and / will see to it that you
are properly enrolled, and that you get
all the encouragement and assistance

which it Is possible for the state agent
and myself to give YOU.

and myself to give you.
Now, every member Of the corn club
ought to be a member of the pig club.
and vice versa, every pig club member
ought to be a member Of the corn club.
But this is not required. know that
there are lots of boys who can not car
ry on both. but try it, at least to join
one. The state has an agent whose
business 1t is to furnish the instructions,
bulletins, blanks, etc.. by which the
pig club members are to be guided.
The purpose of the pig club is to
create and promote an interest among
boys of the state for more and better
hogs; to teach the art Of hog raising;
and to inspire them with thrift and a
love for farm life.
Any boy who is between the ages of
ten and eighteen years is entitled to
membership:
The county pig club shall be under
the control CT the county superintend-
ent of education, the Home Economics
agent, and the principal of the Agri-
cultural High school as the executive
committee, the state agent. however,
will be a member of this committee on
the part Of the state. Let me say here
that scrub pigs will not be allowed in
the state show, and will not receive
much consideration in the county show
as compared with pure bred hogs.
1t shall be the duty of each member
Of this club to enroll his name with the
county superintendent. 1t shall also be
the duty Of each member:
To secure at least one pig of the age
to be determined by the executive COM
mittee.
To give this committee satisfactory
assurance that he can and will care for
and feed his big according to the in
structions of the state agent which will
be furnished him as he needs them.
To make all the monthly and annual
reports required Of him by the direct
ing authorities.
To exhibit his pig at the county ex- /
hibit to be held at Macon some time In
the fall.
Appropriate prizes will be given TO
the winners. These prizes and tie
points considered in awarding them will
be announced soon. Suffice it to say
that the prizes will be worth working |
for but no boy who does not expect to
hustle need not enter the contest for |
the hustler is sure to win.
Now, had rather these clubs were |
organized in each school by the teach
er, and the names w,re sent in by her;
but il the teacher Gees not do this, do |
not be discouraged. Send your name
directly to me, ard will enroll you.

Senator Vardaman Of Missis-
sippi, and Senator Smith of Geor-
gia, surely cannot be represent
ing the people of their states in
the positions they continue to oc-
cupy in the upper branch Of Con-
gress. They are posing more an
obstructionists than helpers to
the work of the administration,
yet the party which placed them
in Office is behind the admins
tration. They each seem to have
lost their min Is on the question
Of cotton and the fact that Eu-
rope is not buying the surplus in
this country and paying the high
est of prices therefor. They
have no mind to the other COM
modities sold by the people of
this government nor the fact
that they are being bought in
quantities; that the money they
would like for all Europe which
can reach our markets is spend
ing for necessities. such as food
and ammunition and manufac-
tured clothing, can't be spent
alone for cotton and that in the
bale. Should they turn their at
tention toward helping the ad-
ministration get through some
measure that would give ships
for the transportation of cotton,
rather than acting the part of
obstructionists they would serve
these people better.
England needs food and NUM-
tions more than she needs cot
ton. as badly as she needs the
latter. Her ships are carrying
food and munitions and leaving
cotton at the wharf.
Cotton would be going to Eng
land todayif Vardaman and Hoke
Smith and a few other Democrats
had not turned against the Pres
ident and fought bis shipping bill

are paying the penalty for their

DECLARES POPE is
CAUSE OF STRIFE

LLOYD Shanklin of Springfield,
Ia. declared in his non-sectarian
lecture on The cause and Conse-
quence Of the Present Awful War
at the old Salvation army hall, 119
T. Washington St. last night, that
the pope of Rome caused the pres
ent European war.
First, he enumerated the causes
Of the war commonly assigned by
authorities.
Yet back of all this he declared,
and deeper than all this lies the
hidden yet plain truth that the Pope
of Rome worked through the Grand
Duke Of Austria to get established in
Serbia the Roman Catholic religion
by law"
Serbia is, or was, 9S per cent
Greek Catholic. Russia is Greek
Catholic. Russia helped the Ser
bians 10 get their freedom from
Turkey in the Russian wars. Serbia
can therefore be called Russia's
younger brother in the Greek Cath
Ollie faith
THE concord closeup at which
was signed by the Papal
secretary of state. Gaspari,
and a representative Of Ser
bia. who was no doubt a Roman
Catholic. made Serbia a nation Of
the latter faith by law. Against this
the Serbians rebelled and the result
was the death of the Grand Duke of
Austria. Because OF this Austria
declared war on Serbia"
Then the speaker pointed out how
the various alliances were formed.
He continued bitterly. And all the
time the pope sits back claiming 70
hold down the seat OF neutrality
planning the big world peace pro-
gram which he wishes 10 sit as mod
orator or president Of in order 10
bring amout this long desire Of again
ruling the nations as he once did"
