DISTRICT ATTORNEY.

The Sentinel is authorized to say
to its readers that Mr.. A. t. Patter-
son of Eupora. Webster county, is a
candidate for the Office of district at
torney of this district.
Mr.. Patterson is well and favOrably
remembered in this county as the
efficient stenographer of the court

ing as Circuit Judge. Since his en-
trance upon the practice of law, he
has become partner Of Judge Dunn

creditable record as a lawyer.
Mr.. Patterson enjoys the conf
dence to a marked degree of the best
citizenship Of his county, all of which
goes far towards reinforcing his
ability and his dependableness as an
attorney He is not man that pur-
posely seeks or plans to avoid respon-
sibility. He can always be found on
one side or on the other of every
question and knows how to success
fully maintain any position he takes.
The Sentinel feels that it is no eX-
travagance of speech to say that if
Mr.. Patterson should be chosen dis.
trict attorney that he will devote
every ounce of his energy and all Of
his ability to faithful discharge Of
the duties of the Office and that he
will make satisfactory prosecuting
officer.

HERMANgCIARk FOR
FLoATER REPRESENTATIVE

Mr.. Herman Clark of, district 5.
Young's neighborhood, authorizes his
announcement for the office Of
Floater-Representstive from this and
Montgomery counties.
Mr.. Clark has had little to do with
politics in the past, still he has been
pronounced in his views about men
and measures and there has been no
trouble to locate him at any election.
He possesses none of the arts OF the
politician and this, taken together
with the fact that he has made husl-
ness success of farming, is just bit
reassuring to those who have felt that
the state has been somewhat surfeit-
ed on the man who claimed TO be try
ing ..to save the state" Mr.. Clark is 2
man of good judgment; he is depend
able in what he says andscan be re-
lied on to keep faith with his friends.
It is safe to say ..1bst he will
do no lash act as legislator, and II
shosen. his constituency csuad also

DR.. s. j. SMITH ANNOUNCES
FOR STATE SENATOR.

The Sentinel is commissioned to
place the name of DIR. S. j. Smith Of
Water Valley before the. voters O.
Grenada county as 3 candidate for
the Office of State Senator. subject,
of course, to the August primaries.
Dr.. Smith is q native of Grenada
county. He has rather wide &C
quaintance in this county which
should stand him well in hand in the
contest which he is entering.
DR.. Smith is held in high esteem
by the people of Water Valley among
whom ne lives and by the people of
Yalobusha county He takes Il keen
interest in public affairs and is pos
sesse3 of that tact and persuasiveness
of conduct that makes useful factor
in the cause which he espOuses. He
has given far more than ordinary con-
sideration to public questions. AS a
Mason. Shriner and a Woodman of
the World he has had an opportunity
to mingle with some of the best talent
of the state at the Grand Lodge meet
ings which has given him an expert
cree tnat should prove valuab.e 20
him should he be sen, 70 the State
Senate.
DR.. Smith will no doubt take occa.
sion later to visit the various parts OF
the county and the district to get &C
quainted with the voters and will also
perhaps avail himself Of every oppor-
tuuity to give his ideas about current
Mississippi public questions.

FRANK ANDERSON SUBMITS HIS
NAME FOR SUPERVISOR.

The Sentinel is commissioned to
say TO the voters of district 3, that
Mr.. Frank Anderson has consented to
allow the use of his name for the
Office of supervisor in that beat. And
in using the word consented" The
Sentinel is advised by several gentle
men of that beat that it is not the
sterotyped phrase SO often used by
men seeking office, but as matter of
fact many have insisted on the step
that he is now taking.
Mr.. Anderson was born and reared
in district 3. and is therefore we'll &C
quainted with the needs of the con-
stituency he is seeking to serve. He
is man of exceptional intelligence.
He has a discerning mind and is as
quick TO see the ins and outs OF
yet comparatively young man, he
has clearly demonstrated his ability
to deal with the rapidly developing
problems of the day and has already
attained far more than an ordinary
business success He is q live pro
gressive and aggressive man. capable
and honest and, should he be elected
supervisor, The Sentinel feels war
ranted in saying that he will serve
his people wisely and well.

STOKES v. ROBERTSON
SEEKS A SECOND TERM

The Sentinel is authorized Dy Hon
Stokes V. Robertson to place his name
before its readers as cane cate to
succeed himself as State l;.,cr.uc
Agent, an Office to which he was
chosen four years ago.
Mr.. Robertson was born in Coving-
ton county, July &c, 1881. After
finishing at the public schools of his
county, he entered the University of
Mississippi where he was given the
degree of Bachelor of Science. He
attained quite distinction at the
University in oratory, winning both
the Freshman and Sophomore medals
for oratory. His gifts in oratory
naturally led him into the legal pro-
fession He was admitted to the bar
at Hattiesburg in 1907.
Mr.. Robertson bases his claim for
reelection upon the Democratic GUS
tom of a second term to the faithful
official Naturally he should be far
better able to properly execute the
duties of his office now than when
first elected. He has been diligent in
the discharge of his duties yet it is
not charged against him that hes has
annoyed the public and taxed the
courts with useless litigation in his
search for the back-taX payer. Those
who have had to do with him in the
matter of taxes generally admit that
he has been conservative and that he
shown a willing mind to be as gener-
Gus as the law would allow. While
the matter of settlements has beer in
his hands, yet he has not been arbi-
trary. Taken all in all, Mr. Robert
sons friends claim for him that he
has been a correct and an accomoda-
ting official just as he has been as a
and ~ a friend, and it is up
on his record that he goes before the
people asking another term.
The Sentinel feels that he voters
Of the state Will give his caididacy
fair consideration.

DR.. FERGUSON HAS A SAY FOR
"B." ON THE HOG QUESTION.

Editor Sentincl:
An item under ''In Favor of the
Hog" in the issue of April 4th, sign
ed 3D." | think, calls for few words
III my behalf. AS the hog pen issue
was settled by the voters cf this place
last week, will not discuss Shat mat
ter further than to reply to that part
which concerns my services.
Some few weeks ago Col 3. called
at my Office and wanted to know if l
had some literature on ovariotomy Of
the sow. In a joking way / replied
that ! had no such literature, and
stated had never speighed hog 2,
my life, which was fact. However,
if we're looking for simple opera
tion | would choose ovariotomy of
the SOW. ] tried to tell Col B. that
in my opinion such work III this pro-
gresSive time was unnecessary. Dur
ing my twenty years of practice
think that this was about the first
'time 20 be consulted. about such work.
Many years ago almost every farmer
and old negro in the county speighed
hogs. AS 10 what success. [ am not
able to say. My teachings and expe-
Iience have taught me that any abb
normal operation is dangerous | do
not remember to have ever been call
ed TO treat one of Col. BIS hogs for
sickness. During my college training
and since. | have tried to get all the
diseases Of the animal in my brain
pan that possibly could. However,
/ am here to admit that | have not
learned it all yet. In conclusion,
mieht say if my good friend Col. B.
had learned all the points of the dam
instead Of writing for hogs, especial
ly for small pens in the city, he might
have saved his water mill without fail.
Cordially,
WI. P. FERGUSON.

KNOTT RICE IN THE RACE FOR
SUPERVISOR IN DISTRICT 4.

In the announcement column ap-
pears the name of Mr.. Knott Rice
who enters the race for supervisor
from district 4. The Sentinel is ad-
vised by several citizens of that dis
trict that Mr.. Rice has had this mat
ter under consideration for sometime
and that he only consented to the use
of his name rs candidate when he
felt that there was persistent de-
mand for it.
Knott Rice comes of one of the no.
blest and best families that ever liv-
ed in Mississippi. He is a son of
Mr., Greek P. Rice, who for several
terms was sheriff of Tallahatchie
county in the seventies, and is a
brother of the late Lent l. Rice than
whom a truer and better friend and
citizen never lived, and he, too, was
also sheriff of Tallahatchie county.
Knott Rice is worthy Of the name
he bears. He is a young man of
splendid habits and Of a we'll piosed
mind. He is abreast of the. spirit
of the day and it is no extravagance
of speech to say that he is worthy Of
every confidence.
1t is safe to say that should the
people of beat elect him to this
very important office, that they can
rest assured that he will give it his
best attention and do all within his
power to serve them faithfully and
we'll.

EIGHTY FOUR
ON RECORD FOR

"ECsC" ELECTION A TAME Az
FAIR-SOME OF BEST ClTI.
ZENS THOUGHT THE l2FT.

SERVATIONS.

The election held Saturday K
decide whether or not those who wan,
hogs in Grenada should pen them ir
pen OF not less than 90 feet square
as provided in the ordinance passed
By the City Council in January. or in
pen II feet so. as asked for in the
referedum petition went off on sched.
ule time without much ado. Those
in favor of the II feet hog pen were
unable TO muster only S4 votes. Evi-
IDENTITY quite a number who signed the
petition asking for an election chang
ed their minds and voted against the
II feet per- This was to be expect
ed as indicated in the editorial col
urnns of this paper. 1t is generally
recognized that people are accomOda-
ting about signing petitions and that
they sign oftentines without think
ing seriously.
This paper had no interest other
than what it regarded as the best in
terests of Grenada. The Editor of
this paper has never believed that
there was room enough on the aver
age lot in town to raise hogs; he has
never undertaken the ihog raising
business since he became a town cit
ize1-
II il be said that the ordinance as
now in force and effect brings about
q distinction in that the man who has
Let enough can have q hog pen, tbs
answer can be made that this applies
to everything else. The town prop
crty owner who has lot enough can
pasture cow when perhaps his
neigilbOr cannot. The man VINO has
money enough can build him a fine
residence vet it does not necessarily
follow that he is allowed q privilege
that his neighbor is not.
There is hardly any prohibitive act
that does not bear more heavily on
soue than on others Every law that
carries q penalty of necessity takes
away some individual rights. 1t is
the greatest good to the greatest
number, that should be the aim of
every we'll ordered community.
This paper has the profoundest re-
spect for the views of those who want
ed the - feet pen. 1t can readily be
seer from their viewpoint. Those
w1ao thought that way are among
Grenada's best citizens They had a
right TO their views; they also had a
right to put them to the test. This
they did and lost. The election is
over and The Sentinel feels sure that
every loyal Grenadian will fall in
and act in accordance with the law.
The Council should enforce the or.
dinance as passed at its January
meeting. If there was ever any
doubt about strict enforcement OF
it. the mandate from the people as
shown by the election last Saturday
removed that doubt. Only "a peo-
Die out Of 375 were against it.
Now the question is up to Mayor
Brown and Marshal Mcleod and
these men have showed marked dis
position and ability to be aggressive |
in doing their duty.
