If the poor women of the south
knew that a solution of bichloride of
mercury or carbolic acid applied to
the human germ would destroy it the
same as it would any other germ life
and used it, how would our captains
of industry get children to operate
their cotton mills? Without the ILL
paid labor of these poor children how
could our SNUG New England Chris
tan shareholders draw their fat div
idends and give them to send mis-
sionaries to the heather? Even
though their Puritan ancestors burn
ed witches, hanged Quakers and made
much wealth in the slave trade, they
are glad slavery is abolished, but birth

never countenance that.-A. S. Cra-

have had the extreme pleasure of
listening to the sirfessor's lectures
and found him to be an excellent ex-
FOUNDER and popularizer of Max
Stirner's and Nietzche's philosophy.
His mode of popularizing these great
mems philosophy is by laughing them
out of the philosophy of altruism and
into the consciousness of the ego.
For, according to Nietzche, altruism
is a slave of morality, encouraging
self-denial and killing self-reliance,
and as he postulates that the opp is
older and stronger than the Thou"
by ridiculing the egos who have been
caught in the trap of slavish altru-
ism, he tends to awaken them to
their real importance.
Proclaiming the Thou" and ne
glecting the ''I'' leads to the depths of
slavery. Altruism is meant for the
other fellow, not for oneself.
AS soon as the masses realize
themselves and become conscious of
their power then we will see the glim-
mer of the dawn of a new day. This
new day will be the evolution of man
to surpass himself and to become a
superman. A superman is a man
who will follow those who represent

MUNITIONS PRoFIT.-Why

this barney about preparedness? 1t
all hinges on the idea of profit to the
plunder-bund. Eliminate that factor
from the discussion and the question
falls flatter than a founder under
steam roller.
When the proposition of govern
ment ownership and operation of all
the munition of war manufactures
and plants was put up to the people
every plug hattest, pop-eyed, big bel
lied, profit-monger began to thow fits
and wheeze and blow like a harpoon-
ed whale 1t was nonsense; it was
foolishness; it was paternalism, So
cialism, unconstitutional and rot!
And dear old grandmother Tribune,
who believes in benevolent assimila-
ton (of the school lands), came out
with column editorial in opposition.
The main contention was that 'it was
unadvisable because the plants would
remain idle during times of peace"
Now we all know that millions of
men and women are now out of
work and unable to buy the billions of
dollars worth of surplus products
that are now laying idle in the ware
houses and manufacturing centers.
You say what could they do? Dead
easy to answer! Under sensible,

eminent they could by utilizing the
resources of nature (the raw material
that lays atour hand on every side)
manufacture hundred thousand diff
ferent things that are necessary to
the health, wealth, comfort and hap
piness of the people, giving them
more money to buy the surplus prod
ucts of capitalistic industry, thus
building up home market and elm

Clark fot President.

y
The word comes out Of Washing-
ton, with some degree of substance,
that Champ Clark is out to beat
Wilson for the Democratic nomin-
alton this year, if he can.
The report hasit that the OPEN
ing move in the game is now be-
ing played; which is to defeat Will
sons preparedness program and to
antagonize as many Of the South
ern congressman as possible with
the President, hoping to make the
scism so broad and the fight so
bitter that when q member is ar
ranged against the preparedness
policy that he will also be against
Wilson for the nomination.
The scheme may or may not win;
but regardless of the position Of .
majority Of the house on the con-
gressionaI shceme we believe that
with the ranks Of the Democratic
party, in the South and in Missis-
sippi especially, that Wilson is
stronger now than ever before and
will carry the state in the presi-
Dental primary over all opposition.

Mg. noted
scArsor Y n snceived
the malrns OF 4 great confederate
monument of Stone Mountain near
Atlanta, to carve in the living
mountain Of Granite the eight
wonder of the world, q picture
commemorative Of the heroic deeds
of the grandest army that the
world ever saw.
The block Of granite rises abrupt
|ly $50 feet in the air and is more
than mile long. 1t seems to have
been fashioned by nature to fit the
artists need and placed to show his
work to the greatest possible adj
vantage.
It is proposed to cut into the face
of the stone heroic figures Of the
Confederate leaders, some Of them
fifty feet tall, followed by the army,
infantry, cavalry and artillery,
marching, as it were, over or
around the great stone. The carv-
ings will be made from photographs
of the great leaders and will be Of
| q size to be regnized at distance
lof three miles.
/ At, the base Of the mouutian. is
Ito be a memorial hall for the Daueh-
ters Of the Confederacy, carved out
Of the solid stone, with eleven mann
moth columns along the front, re-
presenting the eleven Confederate
states.
The scheme represents the most
magnificent memorial ever UNDER
taken and will dwarf into insignif-
lcance anything standing. Under
Ithe best working condition it
would require eight years to COM
Iplete and would cost approximately
Sc 900. 600.

AboIish The Fee System.


One Of the safest predictions to
offer concerning the approaching
Legislative session is that the body
will abolish the fee system in Mis-
sissippi.
Not only will it be abolished as
regards compensation of county
Offices. but il will be applied to
State and district Offices as well,
notably the Attorney General and
the State Revenue Agent.
And it ought to be abolished.
There is neither reason or excuse
for paying . public official more
than his services are worth, but it
is being done in many instances in
this State.
The Meridian Evening Star,
published in the home city Of the
Attorney General Of Mississippi,
has the following very timely COM
mont on thin anbiect:
The Tea system is pernicious
in principle and in practice,
in whatever department of gov
ernment it isapplied, from At
torney<G Generals Office to that
Of constable.
It is based upon the theory
that the men will not perform
their Official duties unless they
are paid extra wages for the
performance.
Indirectly it robs the tax
payer by running up court
costs and does not return
enough Of the sum collected to
pay even small portion Of
those costs.
Itis = constant temptation to
officials of al governmental de-
partments to persecute, rather
than to prosecute.
Itholds before the eye Of the
Official . hope Of reward that
he has not earned and cannot
actually earn, and causes the
Official to do things he ought
not to do.
1t is 9 bid for graft rather
than for honest, painstaking
public service.
Itis pernicious from what
ever point Of view it is regard

tnre that convened Tuesday
will SEQ to it that it is abolish

WHY The BEST
OF CHEWS IS
''SPEAR HEAD
Its Rich, Sweet, Mellow Flavor Has
Been Famous for a
Generation
MADE OF CHOICEST RED hurley

The secret of tobacco salts faction is
known only to the man who che1gs plug
tobacco. The reason is that a good
chew gets right next to your taste,
while the leaf in plug tobacco is in
state of fresh, juicy richness that is not
possible in any other form of tobacco
There's no tobacco in the world that
can give you the hearty, wholesome
flavor that you get from a delicious
chew of Spear Head
Spear Head is made exclusively of
ripe, red Kentucky Burley-the most
richly-favored chewing tobacco that
grows. Still more, only the very choic
est red Burley leaf is used for Spear
Head
This choice leaf is selected with the
most painstaking care, is sten1med by
hand, is thoroughly washed free of all
foreign matter, and is pressed into
Spear Head plugs SO slowly that not
drop of juice or an atom of the nat
ural flavor escapes.
Try Spear Head and you'll get
sweet, mellow, luscious, satisfying chew
that cannot be obtained in any other
tobacco. Buy Sc or 10c cut to-day.
