Who Must Bear The Blame?

The sorrowful affair which oc-
Cured in Tippah county within 5
miles of the county site early
this week wherein one law abid-
ing, patriotic citizen of Tippah
county lost his life and another
was perhaps fatally wounded
while the man who was harbor-
ing the deserters had his body
riddIed with bullets, all because
a detachment .of troops had been
sent over from Camp Pike to cap
ture some deserters shows that
there are a few in old Tippah not
true to its fathers. ''Deserters,"
think, of the odium the word car
ries. Somebody is to blame for
the action of these poor, mis-
guided deserters. They would
never have deserted had not de-
magogic politicians and news
papers seemingly proud of the
distinction CD of purveying the
stock in trade of such politicians
made them believe they had a
right to do what they were at
tempting. The men or the news
paper who have preached that
this war is a rich mans war"
and who have talked loud and
long of the ''profteer" and who
have not only questioned the Sc
lective draft law but published
lengthy articles seeking to prove
it's unconstitutionality, must
carry the blood of these good
men of Tippah county as well as
the blood of the harborer of the
rabbit hearted men who ran a.
way from duty, upon their heads.
God pity the man who has not
yet learned that he can not live
to himself but we seriously doubt
that He will show compassion to
the man who turns his back
upon his country when another
nation SIS stabbing' it in the
back. "-Gtenada Sentinel.

by four inch plank. This plank was
broken in the middle, and split from
end to end. A long pane of glass in
the door was not even cracked. De-
tectives on the case state that
team of horses pulling at rope tied
to the center of the beam could not
have broken it.
Fifteen sacks of sugar were report
ed stolen by the Nebraska Storage
company at 1l0S Nicholas street, by
burglars who gained entrance by
way of fire escape. Police believe
that a block and tackle was used, as
they say it would have taken several
hours to remove so large an amount
of sugar by way of the fire escape.
