Allies would have plenty of bread
But what does it matter to the peo.
if there is plenty of bread if the
price is prohibitive? If the price
had been set at 81. so minimum and
$500 maximum. there would have
been some sense to- the bill, for
that would have insured fairly
steady market and both the farmers
and the consumer could have got
ten along fairly we'll.
AS things now stand, there is
no telling how high -four will go.
and meal is now $40 90 per barrel
f. o. b. Memphis. And the war
between the United States and
Germany has not really beann. so
far as an American army in the
field is concerned.
We have strange laws. and they
are strangely enforced, when bread
can be bought cheaper III England
and France than it can in the
United States-when this country
is furnis hing the materials with
which to make the bread.
Something should be done at
once to put a stop to food specu-
lation. 1t is hard to be patriotic
when the Government stands idly
by and allows vultures to rob the
people who must fight the battles
and foot the bills for the war.
Nothing would create more patriot.
ism in a shorter time than putting
some of the food SPECTATORS in the
penitentiary and make them do
hard day labor.
Just little ordinary common
sense in Congress and Senate would
help a great deal at this stage of
the game.

SAVE MEN; USE MACHINES.

Save men; use machines" is
the slogan of farm machinery
campaign now being conducted by
the Agricultural Engineering De-
partment of the Mississippi A. and
M. College in an effort to offset
the labor shortage OIL the farms by
a more extensive use of wheeled
cultivators and other labor saving
devices.
In carrying out the campaign F.
R. Jones, Farm Machinery Spe-
cialist, has just issued cul!ivat-
ing machinery bulletin for Missis-
sippi, in which he describes and
illustrates the various kinds OF
machinery adaptable to conditions
in this state, and gives some valu-
able information about methods
of cultivation and proper care of
machinery. This bulletin, which
is attracting much attention, will
be sent free to any resident of Mis-
sissippi who will write the Farm
Machinery Specialist. Agricultural
College, Mississippi.

CALLED TO THE COLORS

During the past week all those
who registered according to the
rule of the selective draft have
been studying the figures as print
ed in the metropolitan papers and
know now wheather they were
selected in the draft of last week.
The fact is. all were called, and it
is only question of how far down
the list you are as to when you
will be called. The list published
up to this time does not show who
will have to answer the first call, ,
so are not very important. 1t is
probably that some time next week
the list selected for the FIRST call
will be ready for publication. aud
i SO we expect to publish it.

FOR STEALING
CATTLE.

The first of the week Louie
Lawrence and John Leverett, the
first named butcher of this city
and the latter formerly engaged in
in the timber business nr White
River, were arrested and tried for
the alleged stealing and killing of
two heifers belonging to NJ. Aaron
son, of this city. from Big Island,
where they were being taken care
of by Somers, a negro man we'll
known i'll Rosedale. The prelimi-
nary trial of John Leverett was
had before Judge J. A.. Cooper
last Tuesday and the evidence was
very strong against the defendants.
Judge Cooper set the bond of each
at 81, 500. and so far neither of
the men have been able to make
bond.
They will be held for circuit
court, which meets in Rosedale
the first Monday in October.

|lTIS UP TO THE UNITED
STATES.

After making brilliant adva nee
last week, the Russians have this
week turned and are retreating
from their German enemy on the
Eastern front.
1t may be that another re-or1an-
ization will be made of the Rus.
sian army and it may do efficient
service at some time in the future,
but for the present it seems utterly
useless.
Under these circumstances it is
uu to the United States to place an
army in the field at as early a date
as possible, and it is likely that
double the number of men will be
taken in the first draft than was
at first intended.
The British and the French are
lighting heroicly on the Western
front and ale using great NUM-
Der OF their reserves; therefore the
United States must get an army
ready to take the place of the re-
serve now being thrown into the
conflict.
A great many of our people did
not realize that our country was at
war and that the matte. was serious
until their names were drawn last
friday by the Government. They
sie beginning to understand now,
and the longer the war continues
'ne clearer it will become that the
O''ues are not sham affairs and
'aat all our men and resources will

COLORED RED CROSS AT
ROSEDALE.

A meeting has been called by
Promoter J. w. Jarrett for meet
ing and organization of Colored
Red Cross auxiliary next Monday
night, July 3Oth. and there are a
large number OF speakers on the
program. There will be quite a
large number of colored soldiers
who will go to the front in France
and while they will receive assist
ance from the white Red Cross
Society, it is only right that the
colored people do their, bit toward
caring for their soldiers.

PEACE. PEACE" WHEN
THERE is NO PEACE.


There are persons in this coun-
try-even in Mississippi-who
want the United States to ask Ger
manv for peace now, before our
army has fired gun in the Europ-
can war.
1t is with shame that we acknow-
ledge that such people are citizens
OF the great State of Mississippi.
Any one who is so yellow" is
disgrace to his country and should
be taken Que and shot along with
foreign spies and American trait
ors.
A petition along these lines was
received by Senator John Sharp
Williams from soxe citizens of
Webster county. Mississippi, the
first of the week. He refused to
present the petition and returned
it to the signers with the advice to
send it to some Senator or Con.
gresham who are in sympathy
with their views.
In returning the papers to its
signers. Senator Williams wrote.
I do not believe that this is the
time to talk peace because do not
believe there could be obtained a
peace advantageous to the world
until Germany realizes that she
cannot whip in this fight. She
has not vet realized it. The mini
ute she comes to her senses l am
in favor of negotiating peace with
her and in a general way along the
lines of your memorial, with two
exceptions If YOU mean bv no
forcible annexation of territory
that the country of Schleswig- Hol-
stein should not be restored to
Denmark; that Alsace and Lor-
raine should not be restored to
France; that the people of Bosnia
should not be permitted to align
themselves with the Servians
people who are co-racial. co-iingual-
and correlated with them-,iiat op.
pressed Poland should not be TAX
en- from Prussia and Austria and
set free; that the gallent people of
Bohemia should be left to the ten
der mercies of the Hapsburgs. and
and that Turkey should still be
left in possession of her territory
in Europe and of the christian Ar
menians. to Cypress and slaughter
and rape them. then l emphatically
do not agree to your first propos-
ton.
Concerning the second propo.
sition. if you mean by no punitive
indemnitives' that Germany shall
escape scot free without paying
one dollar for the barbarous and
ruthless destruction of property
and life of civilians in Bel2ium--a
neutral country who had commit
ted not even an alleged provocation
but was simply walked over and
destroyed-then I do not agree
with you about the second proro-
sition.
Il would advise. therefore, that
you have your petition presented
through somebody who is SYM
pathetic with your views. l want
to fight this fight to fnish-to a
finish which shall secure for demo-
cracy place on the globe. and
when we make pease with Ger
many l want the treaty to be sign
ed by those representing German
democracy and not by a member of
the house of Hohenzollen, which
house has announced that treaties
are but scraps of paper. and which
therefore cannot be trusted. a house
which has made a pride of break
ing its publicly pledged word of
honor and whose word of honor
therefore can never be accepted
again"

RED CROSS NOTES.

| The Bolivar County Chapter Red
| Cross is showing satisfactory signs
of activity. 1t takes time to get
county organization into smooth |
running order, especially when the
different units which compose the
organization are taken in at differ
ent times. However. the later or
ganized auxiliaries have the benefit
of an increased interest and enthu- !
siasm to stimulate, and they swing
into step beside the earlier organ
lied ones without difficulty.
Boyle is the latest newcomer into
Red Cross fold, but promises from
enthusiasm shown at the organiza-
ton meeting Wednesday morning,
soon to be in the lead in activities.
The corps of officers chosen is a
strong one and they enter the work
with the larger view of their under
taking which promises good team
work.
Rosedale auxiliary carries the
palm for having been the frs, TO
send off box of supplies. she l,av-
ing shipped the following list of
articles: 28 suits of outing pajamas,
"a hospital bed shirts, operating
gowns, E bath towels. IL comfort
bags and equipment for one
patient. The Rosedale organiza-
ton is one Of the largest and most
enthusiastic in the county and they
are doing fine work.
Scott auxiliary have pledged 800
hospital garments by Christmas.
From present indications they will
uphold American precedent and
over. subscribe their allotment.
The best prepared. report comes
from the treasurer of the Benoit
auxiliary. None but busy secre
tary with desk stacked with I'M
answered letters and bushel of
peaches waiting In the kitchen to
be canned can eyer understand how
refreshing 1t is to come to a report
among many, in which the in
formation desired can be grasped
at a glance. Benoit makes a
splendid financial showing, having
OH hand in the local treasury. after
buying their months supply of
material. the sum of $341.31.
The secretary attended an en-
thusiastic meeting of the. local
organization at Shaw on Tuesday.
The Shaw people never do any
thing by halves and they are all
for Red Cross work now and great
things are expected of them by the
chapter. No report of actual work
done was received from them. how
ever.
| Gunnison sent their newly chosen
board member. Mr.. J. G. McGehee.
to the meeting of that body on
We dnesday and he showed himself
a valu able addition to the execu-
tive department OF the County Red
Cross. Other members reported
chosen. though not present at the
meeting, are Mrs. w. P. Burbridge
for Alligator and Mrs. R. X. Muir
phree for Hushpuckena.
The meeting of the executive
board OH Wednesday. while not as
prolific in actual business dispatch
ed as it was hoped that it would
be, was, nevertheless. good meet
ing inasmuch as it gave the mem-
bers clearer understanding of the
needs of the county organizations
and of the demands that may be
made upon it. Those present were
