In addition to this interference with

unavoidable, as working men cannot

a GOOD PAPER.

The indianapolis Ledger. of last
week carried some mighty interesting
reading matter. Editor Howard is a
jam-up newspaper man, anyway. He
prints news that the people wish to
read The Ledger don't believe in
applying the whitewash brush. 1t
gives its. readers the happenings hot
from the wires. News that is news,
fresh, reliable and trustworthy. Here
is to you, Brother Howard. and if we
never meet any more in this world,
we say, if we never meet you in this
world, we hope to meet you at Great
houses near the sunny brook"

SAVE THE BOYS.

1t seems that the rank and file are
Indifferent to the fate awaiting two
fourteen year old Giles County boys.
The Youngsters are to be electrocuted
pretty soon, and something like an
effort might be made by our people
to have the sentences changed to
life Imprisonment 1t occurs to us,
that our leaders" haven't noticed
this matter at all Every body knows
if these boys were white. there would
be no death sentence hanging over
them. Can't our civic organizations
get up a delegation and call upon the
governor ere it is too late? 1t would
be a disgrace to civilization for these
youths to be put to death

Thou crownest the year with good
ness and mercy,
Upon thy pastures the showers doth
fall;
Smiling, the fields rejoiceth with har-
vest,
Thou hast extended Thy blessings
to all.
And Thou hast clothed the hills with
their verdure,
Seed-time and harvest, Thou send
est them here;
Let all the earth rejoice in its full
ness,
For with Thy blessings Thou crown
est the year.
Thou crownest the year with spring
time and gladness,
Upon the pastures the cattle doth
feed;
And with the corn the valleys are
fertile,
Gently the grass doth spring over
the mead

TOOK HIGH GROUND.

The Missionary Baptist Progressive
State Convention in its session last
week in Helena, took high ground,
in that it sent telegram of Frater-
nal greetings to the Arkansas Bap-
fist State Convention, assembled in
Pine Bluff. AS it is both customary
among we'll bred Baptists and the
duty of real Christians of the same
faith to exchange greetings, it
would not be regarded as anything
out of the ordinary, were it not for
the recent upheavals among the
Baptists of the state causing the or
ganization of new convention in the
State, and perhaps somewhat strain
ed relations among them. The new
convention has only been in existence
two years and as yet hath not rec
ognized as regular organized body
of Baptists by what may be properly
termed the old convention. II
seemed BETTING therefore for the
new or Progressive Convention Con-
vention to extend first the friendly
hand. For however much real
Christian men may differ, they dc
not let their differences degenerate
into hate, but little strange to say
that the "old lady," the mother con
vention had not at the close of the
session Saturday night accepted thu
hand of her sparkling, robust, prom
Using. we'll formed, intelligent, rapid
ly growing daughter. Guess she will
however, for that progressive littl
girl is one to be proud of.

During the last few days of cold |
weather, there were near fifty hogs |
killed. Mr.. Tom Duncan was kept |
busy Saturday sticking, scalding and |

the three hundred fifty mark. That
was some hog Charlie. But for hogs,
lust wait until 1918 when Steve
Barnes comes to the scale with those
Jumbo hogs of his. VIM. Oakley and
wife have the twa champion hogs of
Jackson street. They measure from
