Transcript says;
1.-THE promotion of Col. Robert
L. Howe, chief of staff of the
northeastern department, to the
grade of brigadier general is a be.
lated recognition of repeatedly
proven ability. Under a sensible
system of advancement for merit
he would have been given a star
when war was declared and would
be getting his second star now.
Then it was that the live colonels
should have been made general Of.
ficers and the others retired. His
record of field service shows such a
slashlng of red tape and breaking
of the hamestrings of bureautocra-
cy for the purpose of getting things
done that the bureaucratic ring,
which holds the War Department
In its grip, would probably be
afraid to pick for preferment an
officer of his qualifications. AS a
brigadier general, however, Howe
will be heard from, and the ap-
praisal of his abilities at the hands
of Roosevelt, Woods and PershiDg
will be sustained. Austin Amer.

day. Conclusively l would have
voted to have let the boys have
this trip, especially as l wanted to
come home and hang up my meat,
but We are having so many wheat
less, meatless and eatleSs days
that l thought we had better go
ahead and get through and come
home.
All Of the Noxubee delegation
here have their wives with them,
and I am sure that our constitu.
ents are proud of that part of the
delegation at least, and then we
have three Noxubee ladies now
living in Jackson-Mrs. Erie G..
Scales, Mrs. Shelf Thomas and
Mrs. Jas. Lipscomb. So our coun
ty is well represented in the jewels
line at least. l understood that
Mrs. Shelf Thomas l would call
her Cousin Ella, as I have a right
to, as my maternal great grand9
mother was a Dorroh), but hear
that one inducement for her to
leave Macon was to keep from be-
ing called "Cousin Ella" by a
good friend of mine up there. If
you doubt this, ask Miss Anna.
James Robertson, of Deerbrook,
came in and shook hands with us
the other day. Only stopped in
to see if we were on our job.
Mrs. Ethel Mullins and her two
fine boys called for a day, but be-
cause she could not put me to
work on her patriotic quilt, would
not come over to the house to see
me. She has fine boys anyway.
Now Miss Dele Madison treated
me alright. She came in before l
got there, asked for Big Buds
seat, and when l arrived was sit,
ting in my chair very much at
home. This of course pleased me,
and as we are in the habit of ex
tending the privileges of the floor
to all distinguished citizens who
visit us, told the Speaker we had
a charming lady from my county,
daughter of the man who had re,
flected honor upon my county and
state, Hon. James Madison, ex
speaker of this body, and l asked
that this honor be extended her,
and it was done. [ then had a
! number of gentlemen who used to
know her father, to come up and
be introduced to her, showed her
and her lady friends over the capi-
tol, and thought l had done the
handsome thing, but Sallie said I
would always be a goose; that
Dele would a great deal rather
have met the sons of the men who
used to know her father; that she
was not caring to meet such old
men. Well, l will know better
next time.
Our good Senator John Poindex-
ter is being urged to make the
race for governor, and is sincerely
thinking of doing so. John is
quite popular and if he decides to
make the race, old Noxubee will
back him to the last man, and he
will make it warm for the boys.
