May be the Real Cause

The opponents of Ex-Gov.
Longino are making much ado be-
cause he, while governor, pard-
oned one, John Nance, a negro
of Yazoo county who was doing
service in the penitentiary on a
conviction of raping a white
woman. The facts as we have
them from reliable source are
as follows: the crime was COM
mitted; circumstances seemed
to point to John; he was arrested
and taken before the woman in
question; she was we'll acquant-
ed with John but failed to ident-
ify him as the guilty party; he
was turned over to her father
and brothers, they refused to
take any stock in summary pun
ishment, because they doubted
his guilt; he was hauled before
the court and convicted on pure
ly circumstantial evidence and
was not allowed to even testify.
Later, both the trial Judge and
District attorney, who, were
then recognized as eminent jur-
lists, stated to the Governor
that they doubted and had
always doubted the guilt of
Nance. The petition for this
pardon was regularly made and
not an individual protested
against it. So believing that
justice demanded it, Gov. Lon
ginO pardoned John Nance.
But there was another case,
and here may be where the
trouble is. A rich white man
was convicted of what seemed to
be an unprovoked murder, and
was convicted and sentenced
to death. He was not only rich,
but was we'll connected and the
influence of his family and
friends was and is great. They
tried every means at their com.
mand to save his neck, but with,
out avail. Longino allowed him
to pay the penalty for the crime
he committed, because justice
demanded it.
Now, there ere some people
who pretend to believe that tn,
rich and powerful should no
suffer when they commit ;
crime, that the law is only
made for poor folks anC
'niggers'" These people know
that Longino is not cast in thai
kind of mould and that should he
be elected, and he will be, thai
it will be useless to appeal tc
him to pardon the guilty or helr
punish the innocent. LONGING
believes that even and exact
justice should be melted out tt
every man according to his
deeds whether they be good OF
bad. If you hold to that creed
you may, with sefety, vote fol
Longino; otherwise, you haC
better seek a more corrupt man

Il had rather see my wife
well and happy like she is since
taking Tanlac than to have all
the money in the world, de-
clared Henry Raspberry, of 1872
Campbell street, Kansas City,
Mo. Mr.. Raspberry, who has
recently been employed as a
foreman by the Armour Packing
Company, was foremerly in the
service of the Missouri, Kansas

Before my wife took Tan
lac" continued Mr.. Raspberry,
''she had rheumatism in her
limbs so bad she couldn't even
dress herself. would have to
help her out of bed in the MORN
ings and put her cloths on for
her. Her stomach was in such
a bad condition that she could
hardly digest anything. The
gas on her stomach would cause
intense pains in her side and
such awful spells of palpitation
of the heart that she could hard
ly stand it. She was extremely
nervous, her breath was short
and very offensive. and she
had fallen off in weight untilshe
was hardly more than a frame.
AT the time she began TAX
ing Tanlac she only weighed
eighty-seven pounds and had
not been able to do any of her
homework in four years. But
she now weighs one hundred
and twenty-five pounds has
actually gained thirty-fve
pounds and is as healthy and
active as she was thirty years
ago. The rheumatic pains have
all left her and she can do al
her work and look after the
family without the least trouble,
She can eat meats. pickle, al

is not the least nervous any

ON JANUARY /, 1917, Two
Dollars were spent by different
men but both in a city in that
part of the United States usually
designated as THE South. I"
The story of these two dollars
during the past year will be of
interest to the man who wishes
to do the best for himself and
his Southland. Each dollar was
spent for insurance. One was
part of $35 which was paid for
policy in the Mammoth Life In
surance Company of New York.
The other was part of $35 which
was spent for a life insurance
policy in the Mammoth Life In
surance Co. of the South JEFF
erson Standard Life Insurance
Co., Greensboro, N. G.
The first went through the
usual banking channels to New
York and there was held in a
vault of the Monmouth Life In
surance Co. of New York for a.
bout three months, and then,
with thousands of other dollars
was used to purchase the bonds
of a large factory in Massachu-
sets. This dollar, with others,
contributed in its way to the
employment of many men in a
New England enterprise, and
helped to build up an industry
which is competing with South
ern industries. After having
been spent for the bonds of this
mill, it was turned loose in the
thriving mill town of -, in
New England, paid many debts,
and contributed, as every dollar
jdoes, to the material welfare
and prosperity of everything
with which it came in contact.
| AS it rolled along in its merry
way, doing good to the New
Englanders it jingled jauhtily
with many other dollars which
had come from the Southland,
and which, as it touched its
bright neighbors, seemed to
wonder, why am so far
away from home; why could
not remain in the Southland and
4 do this same good there? Are
there so many dollars in that
country that they want to gel
rid of them and am | not needed
as much as am here?"
The story of the. other dollar,
the one which was spent for a
life insurance policy in the
Mammoth Life Insurance Com
pany of the South, the JEFFER-
SON, of Greensboro, is just as
Interesting.
1t was paid into a local bank.
Within three weeks it was loaned,
with many other dollars, to a
Southern man, who, having con-
fidence in his section, was de-
veloping his farm and needed
this money to build better barns,
a better home, and improve his
land. This particular dollar was
paid by this man to a carpenter
who was at work on his barn.
By the carpenter it was paid to
his doctor. 1t was used by the
doctor to pay the doctors month
ly grocery bill. The grocer used
lit, with other dollars, to pay his
druggists bill. The druggist
used it to pay his neighbor farm
err for some vegetables. From
there it went to the local butch
err. From him it went through
many other hands, and eventual
lily paid hundreds of dollars of
debts. AS it jingled along on its
merry course, doing good in
every case, its little song was,
Just see how much good / can
I'do in the Southland, where / am
so badly needed, and where I
can do my greatest good because
