FERGUSON HAS
ANOTHER SAY

Mr.. Editor:-This answer to Citi-
zen and | am through with the dis
cussion of this matter so far as your
kind publication is concerned. For
Citizens" sake l grant the plant
may not be an investment, but so
long as the patrons are paying a rea-
sonable charge for water and lights,
and so long as the taxpayers owe
and must pay the debt created for
the plant, l believe | voice the senti-
ment of the board and a great ma
jority of the taxpayers when l say
the plant should be run on invest
ment principles. The money the
board is trying to make the plant
earn is necessary in order to help
lift the debt and is not raising taxes,
as Citizen seems to think. con-
tend the money the board expects
to use for the extension will be put
on all and not to put up lights for
,he accommodation of others, as Citi-
zen intimated. Surely that which
helps the plant will ultimately help
he taxpayers and patrons. If there
is any legal public or private wrong
in the boards action in the matter
under discussion, plead guilty to the
charge that | do not understand.
do not claim to make no mistakes,
but | do claim every official act of
mine has been for what l thought to
be the most good for the most peo-
pie. | may have blundered in this
matter; if so, am ignorant of any
wrong. The only string that ever
made me dance was the fiddle string.
No, Citizen, you are wrong. The
board are the only persons pulling
the reins Of the city government, and
The records in the recorders office

124 for, 20 against.
Citizen, you are unknown to me
oy the above name. and while l have
not fully diagnosed your complaint, |
am sure you are a good fellow and
much good is in you. and as men
have differed all through life, shall
think none the less of you for what
has Sbeen said. 1t is with a deep
sense of gratitude that | can feel you
are my friend.

POWER PLANT MEN
FORM ORGANIZATION

Grenada's wide-awake and popu-
lar power plant superintendent was
in Jackson last week to attend the
meeting held there for the organi-
zation of the power plant men of
this state. There were only dozen
towns of the state represented at
this meeting. Mr.. West will be a
charter member of the organization.
This organization is created for the
purpose of plant betterment and ed
ucation of the superintendent of the
work in charge, the expected results
being in the reduction of rates to
consumers by reason of the fact that
efficiency methods will be put into
more general practice in this state.

RUN DOWN BY AUTO.

Greenwood, Miss, Sept. 16.-An
automobile accident that almost
proved fatal for Horace Motley, de-
livery boy for the City Grocery Co.,
occurred on Main street yesterday.
Mrs. w. B. Hoffa, of Grenada, was
driving her Chevrolet car and loose
steering gear caused the car to be-
come unmanageable when she tried
to turn into Main street. The car
smashed into Motley, who was on a
wheel, throwing him against the curb
and cutting his head and completely
demolishing the wheel. Motley
while painfully hurt about the head
was not seriously injured. After ne
received medical attention, he was
taken to his home.

church we'll but has taken decided
position on all moral questions and
has not failed to be bold and aggres-
sive in condemning those things in
society and in the life of the COM
munity that he thought did not
square with the Bible. DR.. Trotter
believes in the strict enforcement
of the statutes of the country and
has not hesitated at defining himself
vigorously when he saw what he
thought was compromise with the
law. He has left his imprint upon
Grenada and the best wishes of the
whole town go with him to whatever
field he may be called. His wife is
a highly cultured woman and bears
her part nobly in the great work to
which DR.. Trotter has consecrated
himself.
The Sentinel is unadvised as to
when Mr. Trotter will leave, but it
seems to be understood that it will
be towards the latter part of this
year or about the first of next.

ARTHUR WRIGHT KILLED
NEAR GREENVILLE

Arthur Wright was killed by a
Southern railway train near Green
vile last Sunday afternoon and his
remains were brought here Monday
night. and after funeral services at
the home of his sister, Mrs. 7. B.
Garntham, conducted by Rev. l. P.
Trotter Tuesday morning, they were
inferred in Odd Fellows cemetery.
Mr.. Wright was son of Mr.. Joe
Wright and was about 35 years of
age. He had many noble traits of
character, was kind and obliging and
the community sympathizes with his
mother and other relatives over his
untimely death.

WHAT GRENADA
HAS AND HAS NOT.

best asset; are its best advertise.
ment. The Sentinel will be pardon
ed for saying that Grenada cannot
be excelled in the class of its citizen
ship. Grenada may lack some of the
dash and the daring of some other
towns near its size, but it also lacks
the hoodlooms, the loafers and habit
yates of doubtful resorts that these
same towns have. Other places may
pride themselves on their "rush," but
with towns as with individuals, it is
not the rushing, hasty man that does
great things; the calculating, sober
ly moving man is the one looked to
for leadership in crises. Grenada is
growing in size, in business and best
Of all in those substantial that en-
dure longer than big business or that
commodity, the love of which the
Scripture sayeth ''is the root of all
evil"
Grenada justly feels proud of her
paved streets, her well-graded
streets, her sidewalks, her handsome
residences, her graded schools, her
college, her banks, her ministry, her
lawyers, her doctors and her business
men Grenada's business men are
safeL-they are on safe grounds Fl
nancially.
The present city administration
has done much towards still further
improving and beautifying the town.
1t has crystalized sentiment that
has been forming for several years,
and as a result the mostly used
streets are paved. Soon the "white
way" will adorn Depot street, the
square and Main street to Second,
and the pretty stores, the park and
other attractive places will show to
still further advantage.
