DEATH OF REV. EMILE HUssER.
Canton Herald Pays Tribute to the
Memory % Beloved Faster of Sac-
red ESears Church, Who Has Pass
eG - Ills Great Reward.

Canton (Miss.l Herald.
he people Of Canton, Miss, on
yesterday received terrible shock
when the news spread over the city
that Rev. Father Emile Husser, the
beloved Catholic priest, had suddenly
passed into The Great Beyond.
This good man was loved by all the
people Of this community, irrespect-
We CT creed or religion, and it was
hard to realize that one who few
minutes before was with them in the
.lad gone to his Heavenly Faith
CT.
Father Husser was a. asplendid type
Of citizen; he loved his people; he was
loyal TO his country; he wa sfaithful
TO his friends; and was devoted to his
Church and his religion. To those who
lnaw him best, his many acts of char!
ty and kindness stood out most pre-
minently among his many virtues
When sickness or sorrow entered the
homes OF his people, he did not stop IT,
question the standing Of that home
he did not tarry to investigate the
religion of that home; he did not con.
slider the danger or possible inconven-
ie..ce TO himself, but like a good
Priest and like the big hearted and
charitable man that he was, he wens
into that home and unselfshly ana
without hope or reward on this earth,
offered his aid willingly and without
stint This man has been known to
even deny himself Of those worldly
things really needed to give physical
comfort to those perhaps more needy
than himsef. He had no thought for
himself, and never cunted the cost,
hut was always ready to respond to
the call of his people, as is we'll known
to all.
His devotion and sacrifice no doubt
contributed largely to his death, as
he really never recovered his strength
from an attack of influenza; for even
in his weakened condition he continu-
ed TO minister to the wants and SUI
forings of those unfortunate ones
who were likewise stricken with this
malady.
On the very threshold of death, he
was pleading the cause of those who
e2ll in Flanders Fields, and spoke
most eloquentiy for tie dear boys who
could not speak for themselves. At a
time when he doubtless realized that
he was net physically able to make
talk, he was found on hand, giving his
time, strength and intellect to a move
on hand to memoriaize our hero.c
dead. He himself was true soldier
in every sense, and for that reason
knew what sacrifice of their kind
meant. We may say, truthfully, that
he sacrificed himself that he might
help perpetuate the memory of those
who are near and dear to us. If he
could now speak, he would no doubt
say that he gadly and willingly gave
his strength for his people,
Father Husser was a self-made
man. HIS was life of toll. For that
Board adjourn until the Board in
course.

THE CITY CATTLE ORDINANCE,

Al this moment when the labors of
the Bay people in building up the
Jackson Highway movement and
when its success seems assured and
the machinery has been set in mo-
ton, looking for an inter-urban rail-
road, from Mobile to New Orleans,
and when the re-birth Of the civic
pride IN the community is SO much IN
evidence, with summer colony the
largest in years, attracted to Bay st.
Louis by its charms, and appreciatiye
of its efforts to be live city, our at
tention is called co a resolution of
the CityCouncii asking the attendance
of The people Gu July 5th to consider
the repeal Of the live stock ordi-
nance, this even after motion made
without second had been lost in the
session of the Council!
We are absolutely against any
thing that would stop the Bays pro-
gress, and we are against the repeal
of the stock law for reasons given
above and for the following addition
al reasons:
/. It causes the fence tax
2. It is undemocratic. The minor
ity COW owner should not expect to
control the majority fence or no
fence holder.
8. The cattle at large is a check
to the growing sentiment OF civic
pride.
4. Roaming Of animals is danger
GUS to life Of both man and beast.
5. Remember, with hedges taking
place Of fences in the city and which
idea is rapidly increasing, with their
gardens of plants and flowers, will be
quickly destroyed by cattle
6. Capital will not invest in this
city when cattle roam on the streets, in
public parks and buildings.
T. Roaming cattle run risk of in
fection from eating bad grass or food
and drinking impure water, thus
spreading typhoid, etc.
The State of Georgia has no fence
law and the cattle-owner in that State
must fence his herd. Atlanta, one Of
the prettiest cities in our country, has
no fences, and the fence money is
placed in other ways beautifying the
property.
The Echo is going to ask that every
property owner, voter, or visitor at
tend this meeting on Saturday, July
5th, to frown down any attempt to
set our city backwards such as the
repeal of the cattle law certainly
would do.

IF the negroes Of Mississippi, and
Of the South generally, will heed the
counsels of the wise Of their own race
and act intelligently upon the advice
which is being given them at this
time by some serious-minded and
more intelligent negro educators of
the Southern States-those who were
born and reared in the South and
understand the conditions as they ac-
tually eXist-they will take advantage
Of the unprecedented opportunities
which are presented to them during
the reconstruction period and place
themselves upon a firm and substan-
tlal basis in the industrial life of
the country, a position from which
it will be difficult, if not impossible,
TO remove them.
Never has there been time in the
history Gf the country when the white
employer has manifested more sin
cere desire to help the negro than
the present. Scarcely is there an en-
ployer Of labor in the South who
does not earnestly hope that the ne
gro will realize his opportunity and
grasp the fact that he will receive
just compensation for services rem
dered; but that he must show a will
hngness and determination to per-
form satisfactory service before the
employer will advance the rate of his
compensation or improve his work
ing conditions to an appreeiable ex-
tent, is an incontrovertible fact, and
one which the negro must realize in
order that he may reap the lasting
! benefit of conditions which now exist
