SPECTACULAR FIRE
SWEEPS AN ARSENAL
AFTER AN EXPLOSION

Dover, n. j., Dec. 19.--CausAs Of the
spectacular fire which swept over part
OF the Picatinny arsenal following an
explosion in the research laboratory
early Thursday were made the subject
of an official investigation by army Of
ficers today.
The fire destroyed four buildings, en-
failing loss estimated as high as
one million dollars. Five men were
injured one possibly fatally. but so far
as could be ascertained there was no
loss of life, The plant was said to be
desterted at the time, save for guards.
The explosion rocked buildings in this
town and was heard forty miles away,
Major o. /. Miles, in charge Of the plant
summoned volunteer firemen from Wal
ton and Rockaway and marines from
the nearby barracks at Lake Denmark
The work of fighting the fire was
made hazardous by exploding shells and
it was several hours before the flames
were brought under control.

"We must have homes for our men"
says Superintendent BeSaw OF the BE.
Saw Tire Company, in speaking Of the
opening of the plant, which is to take
place within the next two weeks, at
a gathering of some OF the men who
are to have charge Of the affairs when
the factory is in operation.
The factory is ideally located" con-
tinued Mr. Besaw, "but we must have
homes for our workmen as the workers
are too far removed from the city for
great many Of them to think OF
making their homes in town"
There is ample room for q big col
ony Of houses in the addition and Mr.
BeSaw thinks it would be good in
vestment for some local capitalists to
make especially in view of the fact
that all the refneries are located there

ADDRESSES CONGRESS
SOUTHERN FARMERS

Memphis, Tenn, Dec. 19.-Labor
problems confronting the southern
farmer and means of holding the negro
laborer in the south We're among the
most important subjects planned for
discussion at the annual convention
here today Of the southern alluvial
land association.
Governor Frank o. Lowden OF Hi.
nois, who owns plantations in Arkansas
and Texas in addition to his farm land
holdings in Illinois, arrived this morn
ing to address the convention at its
afternoon session. The morning ses
sion was devoted chiefly to the read
ing OF reports.
The power Of a majority that would
deprive a minority of any of its rights
is not a principle for which moderr
democracy stands but is "a despotisn
as deadly, as cruel, as any despotisn
Of any throne" Governor Frank o. Low
den, of Illinois, said in an address Al
the Southern Alluvial Land convention
In the United States there is no pow
er to prevent a man worshipping Coo

the right to life, liberty, and to owl
property, there are unnaturalized alieni

ness, stalking our land" using falls

ourselves.

TAX COLLECTIONS
ABOUT COMPLETE
Sheriff T. C.. Carrot Has Collected To
: Date S45O, 900, Leaving a Balance
/ of About 100000 Unpaid.

Sheriff T. C. CARROT and his as
s:stants have been as busy as bees
collecting taxes the past two months
total to date aggregating in round
figures the enormous sum of $780,
600, leaving only about 100000 more
to collect.
Heretofore the collection of taxes
has been slow on account of the sher-
ifs not exacting damages until they
were forced to advertise the delin-
quert list. However, after the first
of next January the county officers
will begin working on salary basis
all fees being paid into the treas
ury-and consequently they will be
compelled to assess and collect dam
ages from all who are delinquent for
taxes hence the promptness in pay
ments this year.
An interesting item was CLEANED
from the Sheriff's list of those who
are assessed with State income tax
in Leflore county. Mr.. Walter S.
Wingfield, of Shellmound, is not the
richest man in the county but he rem
dered his income assessment at $46,-
O0O-by far the largest assessment,
of any other individual in the county.

DRAINAGE AND
FLOOD CONTROL
Meeting In Greenwood, Dec. 3Oth. For
The Yazoo DeltA-Congressman
Humphreys Will Be Present.

A meeting of all those interested
IN Yazoo Delta Drainage and Flood
Control, with a view of affording
Congressman B. G. Humphreys an op-
portunity to confer with them, will be
held at the Courthouse in Greenwood,
MISS, at ten a. m.. on Dec. Both.
These are matters of more serious
concern to the lower part Of the Delta
than to the upper, and it is hoped that
all points from Greenwood South that
are concerned will be ably represent
ed.
Hon. B. G. Humphreys has introd-
uced a bill in Congress calling for a
survey of the Yazoo river and all its
tributaries, Not only must drainage
and flood problems be taken care of,
but navigation as WELL
The Chamber of Commerce is very
anxious that a full and representative
meeting of all intrests concerned will
be had on this occasion. 1t is under
stood that already plans are being
made by private interests for dump
ing the floods of the entire upper
Delta into the Yazoo river about three
miles north of Greenwood. With con-
ditions prevailing now this would
mean a fifteen foot levee through
Greenwood an don south, with pump
ing propositions for drainage, and it
would also mean a lack of navigable
water six to eight months of the year

Has Bigger Christmas
Trade Than Last Year

Despite the fact that the inclem-
ency of the weather for the past few
weeks has been detrimental to the
Christmas trade of the Greenwood
merchants, one business man who con-
ducts large establishment in this
city, stated this morning that his bus
mess had far exceeded that of last
year and he had no complaint to make.
f'From last January 1st until June
1st, l did more business than / ex-
pected to do in the whole year," the
merchant declared. He stated that
there was a greater demand than ever
before for high grade stuff and the
sales in this had been enormous. He
said however, that trade in the cheap
er lines had fallen short of expecta-
tons.
