The News Sclmitar, and according to
it, other citizens of Memphis condone
the non-enforcement of law in that
city on the grounds that large ma
jority of the citizens of the city did not
want the laws enforced and that there
fore the city authorities were following
the dictates and desires of the people
rather than the laws of the state and
the ordinances of the city. If this is
the attitude of Memphis it is so much
the better that the custer law was ap-
piled and stop put to the lawlessness
there. President Jackson opposed as
strenuously as any living American
when he became president the enact
ment of certain laws of the United
States, but in his inaugural address he
announced that "All the laws of the
United States will be faithfully eAecut-
ed in all the states" And the Jackson
principle could hardly be improved up
on. Is an officer who takes an oath to
enforce the laws of the United States,
the state and the city to allow public
opinion to sway him in the doing Of
what he has sworn that he will do?
This is too often the case, but the road
Memphis and Nashville officials have
recentled travelled will tend to check
the dictates of "the people.

Taking the oath of Office as mayor of
Memphis last Monday and resigning
early Tuesday morning removes E. H.
Crump. at least temporarily, from the
responsibility of city government. He
has been an efficient city official, but his
mistakes have been monumental as
well as have been his accomplishments.
He came near to debating legisla-
ton in the state for two terms of the
legislature, made and unmade United
States senator's and lesser officials of
the state, the county and the city, but
he went about many of these things in
a way that brought him finally to
official downfall and he was forced by
the state to give up the reins Of govern
menL and retire to private life. 1t has
never been charged against Mr. Crump
that he has profited one penny from
the rottenness of Memphis and Shelby
county officialdom, but he has condoned
and winked at the things he knew
were helping to accomplish his desires
and which were bringing thousands in
to the pockets of his henchmen, both
in office and out. His forced retire.
ment will work changes in Shelby
county and the disclosures in regard
to illegal registration certificates will
cut the Shelby county vote several
thousand in state and county elections.

The marked decline in the cotton
prices recently will not be misfortune
to the South If It serves to warn the
growers against planting larger acre
age the coming season. Last year the
price kept up thruout the season and
the cotton grower who raised his feed
and food at home was in better condi-
ton than he has been in some time.
But the high price Of last year has
served to make planters think of in
creasing the acreage this year. II viii
