Mandatnriest

MandatOries! What does the
word mean? Few know and yet
when used in connection with the
League of Peace it means tremend-
ously for this country. A special
from over there says that Rumania
and Turkey will probably become
manufactures of the United States,
which probably means that they are
our political wards in keeping them
straight in the League of Peace.
How do you like the idea of inherit=
ing the unspeakable Turk as our
foster political child to look after
for all generations to come? Verify,
there are more things connected
with this League of Peace than ever
dreamed of in our political philoso-
ply.

~, tomorrow, Monday afternoon. at
half-past three O'Clock in the loan
headquarters in the old Gunter
stand on Main street
Il is urged and expected that
every head OF department, every
member OF a committee; every
member of the soliciting organiza-
tions and, in fact the entire organ
ization for the county should be pres
ent. Not only the members of the
campaign for the entire county. but
every citizen who feels an interest
in the good name of the county is
urged to be present.
The purpose of the meeting is to
consider a plan which viii be pre-
sented by the county chairman to
finish the county's quota. The plan
is an admirable one, it can be car
ried to success and the good name
and reputation for the county can
be saved for all time to come in sup
port of every war activity.
All citizens are invited to attend
this meeting. but the members of
the city and county organizations
are especially urged TO be present

BurIeson is running to cover fast.
He has ordered the cable lines rel
stored to their owners at once and
recommended that the telegraph and
telephone lines be returned to their
owners as soon as Congress can en-
act legislation to safeguard these
properties. Probably the autocratic
Postmaster-General thought this the
easiest way out of the predicament
he found himself in as a result of his
arbitrary rule of these utilities as a
result of government control. The
Postmaster-Genera ought to he re-
stored-tO private citizenship. The
administration and the country
would be better off.

THE NEW REVENUE TAX.

The new federal revenue tax law
went into effect on Thursday. May
the LIST. It's a luxury tax and taxes
are levied upon all luxuries and
many necessities. The law reads
that the tax must be collected by the
vendor from the consumer at the
time OF the purchase and failure to
do so subjects the merchant to
heavy penalty, from which there is
no escape.
The Dispatch wishes to call the
especial attention OF all merchants
to this feature of the law. One very
prominent merchant said that he was
absorbing the tax in the price, but
this does not meet the re-
quirement of the law for at the end
of certain periods sworn, statements
of sales are to be made, accom-
panied with certificates Of sales,
showing the article sold. the price
paid and the war tax collected. Dep
uty marshals will check these re-
ports and if evasion of the law is
found or improper returns are not
made heavy penalties will be exact
ed.
The Dispatch has found a spirit OF
indifference to the imposition and
collection of these taxes. II should
not be tolerated further. The bust
ness man or firm which organizes
to meet the governments require
ment is the man or firm who will
have no trouble. You are not deal
ing with local or county or state Of
fieials. You are up against Uncle
Sam.

With race problem in the South
and a race problem in the West 1t is
IA little surprising to learn from
Japanese sources that President Will
son and Col. House both voted with
Japan for racial equality as one of
the conditions OF the League of
Peace. Possibly the President
thought that these problems could
be treated as domestic problems, but
certainly on the western coast one
of them has an international aspect.

WHOLESALE DRY GOODS AND
JOBBING HOUSE.

JODbl4Nu IiOOOEs
If Columbus is a good wholesale
market for groceries. why is Colum-
bus not a good wholesale jobbing
market for dry goods? If the trade
territory tributary to this city can
sustain wholesale grocery establish
ments, why cannot the same terri
tory sustain a big wholesale dry
goods establishments
Meridian, Corinth and competing
towns have large and successful es-
Establishments of this kind, whose
travelling representatives carry out
of our territory each week large
volume of profitable business. Why
can't this business be kept at home?
vt can If our business men here
will back up the organization of such
an establishment.
Columbus is fast developing her
retail trade. Business houses here
are invading new territory and
drawing new people to Columbus.
We are growing in retail way, but
we should begin to grow in whole
sale way A big dry goods house
here, ably financed and capably
managed, would make money from
the start and would add enormously
to the prestige of this city as
trade center There is an abundance
of, money here seeking profitable in
vestment and some of it at leas
should invade this promising field

BAPTIST REVERT TO OLD GUS
TOM; ASK PEOPLE TO GO ON
KNEES IN PRAYER
It's old-fashioned to pray, did YOU

It's old-fashioned to pray, did you
say?
Well then the 100000 Baptists in
the South plead guilty to. the charge
of being old-fashioncd for they believe
in prayer-prayer in the churches
prayer around the family altar, and
prayer in the places Of secret devo-
ton.
Not all of them have fully prac-
ticed their belief as to prayer all the
time heretofore, but prominent on the
program Of the Baptist rs Million
Campaign for September is the place
given to prayer. This month has been
designated as Intercess:on Month and
through September and the remainder
fthe campaign as weIl every South
ern Baptist is urged to cevote much
time to earnest communion with God
as a preparation for the work that
will need to be done to put the cam
paign over While September "a has
been designated as a day of special
prayer and practical fasting through
out the Southern states the people are
asked to begin praying in earnest be-
fore that time and continue doing so
able to ascertain Gods will for them
in this campaign and then obey that
will fully.
Time was when it was popularity
considered proper to commune with
God at regular and frequent intervals.
The restoration of prayer to prom
lnent place in the lives of Baptsts
and Christians generally is one of the
by-Droducts which those identified
with this campaign hope will result
from it.

Discovery Which May Prove to Be the Solution Of Prob

1t would seem that medica, science
has scored a new victory and made
new and most remarkable discov-
cry, one that will have far reaching
influence on the physical betterment
of present and future generations,
and one which bids fair to quickly es-
tablish itself in the public regard as
a most remarkable step toward the
alleviation of human suffering.
Medical scientists have long known
that the greatest single human fabric
rebuilder is iron-the most powerful
of all tonic agents for the blood and
the greatest known restorer Of physi-
cal vitality.
But, -efficacious as iron is known
to be. not every sufferer has hitherto
been able to avail themselves of its
potent healing and building power be-
cause iron tends to induce constipa-
tion.
1t has also been true that iron was
not 'assimilable to all stomachs and
for that reason many have suffered
for years because their stomachs
could not assimilate the very remedial
agent that their system would SO
quickly respond to.
But science eventually wins and a
method has at last been discovered

out was difficult. When the two met
the farmer said, with a clustering

for me-
Much alarmed, the second farmer
promptly pulled out in the deep snow
