OWNERS OF
LEFLORE COUNTY
Win Hold Important Meeting. il
Greenwood. May 18th, to Consid-
er Flood Control.

A number of the principal land
owners of Leflore County have asked
the Chamber of Commerce to call a
meeting of all interested parties In
Leflore County to take up active con-
sideration of the plans advocated at
the recent meeting at Marks, for con-
trolling the flood waters of the Talla-
hatchie River. A full account Of this
meeting appeared in a recent issue of
The Commonwealth, and doubtless the
citizens of the entire county are fam
liar with the subject.
It is claimed that three-fourths OF
the overflowed lands of this county
can be rendered safe from overflow
by this plan-that the plan is entirely
practicable, and that while it may be
expensive, it is not so in comparison
with the returns it would yield. It is
further suggested by some of the par
ties interested and best informed,
that it would relieve a danger now ex-
listing of which comparatively few are
aware-that if, for instance, the lev
ees on Black Bayou, Dry Bayou and
Mound Bayou, all on the west side
of the Tallahatchie, protecting lands
in Culver river basin that are 2 or
8 feet below flood level, should go out
or be cut during extreme high water,
as is always possible, the loss and
damage would equal the amount re-
quired to inaugurate the proposed
flood control, which would make such
a catastrophe impossible.
Several prominent engineers who
have been studying the situation will
be present, among them Mr.. l.. L..
Hidinger, of the Morgan Engineering
Companies, Mr.. A. L. Dabney, of
Memphis, Mr.. Elliott Lang, and pos
sibly others.
Detailed maps showing the entire
section concerned, and the scope and
details of the plan, specially prepared
for the occasion, a be see at the
Chamber of Commerce.
The meeting to be held at Green
wood on the 18th, is preliminary to
a general meeting of the entire dis
trict affected, to be decided on at that
time. The meeting will be held at
the Chamber of Commerce at 10
o'clock a. m.

after the county had raised it's full
quota. Among the liberal county sub.
scribers was MI. Ed Jones, who was
among the first to over subscribe his
quota and purchased $4,000 of Vic.
tory notes at the beginning of the
campaign. 3
The Woman's Committee of the
county materially assisted in the
county campaign and sold over
$462,950 of Leflore's quota.
Although the county has raised it's
quota, those who have not yet sub.
scribed, should do so at once. If you
have let some one else shoulder your
part of the obligation, wipe out your
indebtedness at once and subscribe
your quota at the headquarters. It's
the best investment in the world and
the most successful business men are
purchasing heavily in Victory notes.

Much Stock Killed
By r. r. Companies

Greenwood, Miss, May 2, 1919.
To The Commonwealth:
Were it not for the fact that the
urgency is SO great, we would not
presume to undertake to call attention
through the columns of your paper,
to the great amount of stock that is
now being killed by the two railroads
operating in this County.
It has become the popular thing to
do, in certain sections of the County,
to pasture stock On the right of way
of the railroad companies, and as a
result, al enormous amount of stock
in being killed, and of course, a great
many claims for damages, are being
presented.
The damage has become SO great,
that it is now alarming, and for this
reason, we apologize for calling at
tention to this fact.
To illustrate, on the Memphis Divi-
sion of the Y. & M. V. Railroad Com
pany, in the past three months, 2aS
head Of stock were killed, valued at
$~22,383.85.
Aside from the loss of stock to the
owner, and the resultant damages to
the Railroad Company, there is the
added danger to passengers by reason
Of the derailment of trains il strik-
ing this stock.
The stock law is in force in every
section of this County, through which
both railroads operate, and both COM
panies would be justified in taking
up the stock and impounding all stock
trespassing on the right of way,
which, if done, would result in con
siderable expense aAd inconvenience
to the owners Of the stock, but the
companies prefer not to do this, but
hope that in the future the land-own-
ers through whose land the railroad
run, will watch and see that their
tenants are not permitted to turn
their stock out so a. to trespass on
the right Of way.
We hope that the landowners vii!
give this matter their attention and
in the future, see to it that something
is done towards stopping this enor
damage and expense.
Yours very truly,

BARKER Is FINED
AND SENTENCED
Man Charged With Bringing Liquor
To Greenwood Given 6 Months
In Jail and $500 Fine.

E. j. Barker, a white man, who was
charged with bringing 300 quarts OF
whisky to Greenwood on a gasoline
launch several months ago., was tried
before a jury composed of Messrs j.
E. Mann and J. W. Quinn yesterday
afternoon and was fouQd guilty. Judge
A. w. Evans then imposed $500
fine and sentenced Barket to six
months on the county farm. It is be-
lieved that an appeal will be taken,
although none had been filed at noon
today.
Barker in company with C. M. Pol
lock, owner of the gasoline launch,
landed in Greenwood, west of the city
on the Yazoo river with the cargo of
whisky. According to the testimony,
three sacks Of liquor, containing twen-
ty quarts each had been unloaded
when officers 7. C. CARROT and E. H.
Crippen arrested Pollock and the ne
groes who were assisting in unload
ing the cargo. Barker made his es-
cape in the darkness.
Pollock testified that he was paid
$3.50 to make the trip from Vicks-
burg to Greenwood and declared thai
he had nothing to do with the sale
of the whisky. The evidence produced
should that Barker was the owner Of
the whiskey and was responsible for
its delivery at Greenwood.
Unless an appeal is made, Barker
will at once commence the serving of
his day sentence.

FINE LECTURE
GIVEN SUNDAY
Hon. J. w. Bell Tells of Experiences
In Italy-Mrs. Marion Aldridge
Renders Solos.

One of the most interesting and
profitable lectures, which has been
given in Greenwood in many mknths
in~terspersed with good music, was
the rendered yesterday afternoon
at the Memorial Building, when Hon.
j. w. Bell of Oxford, spoke to an au-
dience of Leflore citizens. Mrs. Mar
ion Aldridge, a talented and popular
tions. Mrs. Aldridge has sung at
many environments throughout the
United States and is a universal fav-
orite with the soldier boys.
Mr.. Bell served with the American
Expeditionary Forces in France and
spoke on the subject of Italy.
He described the part of the coun-
try that was in the war area, telling
of the two great mountain ranges,
and the valleys where most of the
fighting was done. He told briefly of
the Caporetto disaster, and the chief
causes that brought it about, and ex-
planned the reason of The lowered
morale of the army at hat time due
to lack of food, and encouragement.
The health and sanitary conditions
were discussed, and the present
status of the country relative to it's
political and economic situation.
A clear insight was given Of the
work of the Y. NJ. C. A. in assisting
in restoring the morale of the enemy,
and the various work that was done
by that organization.
At the close of the lecture, Mrs.
Aldridge rendered an unusually in
teresting program, consisting of six
numbers. The most pleasing, of this
splendid musical program, was the
rendition of "The Americans Have
Come" She was accompanied on the
piano by Mrs. G. r. Prosser.
