WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE DONE

Assistant Attorney General Walter
Dents assault upon Gov. Bilbo in the
capitol building at Jackson on FRIDAY
last will of course be worked for ali
1t is worth to promote the election of
Russell. Bilbo himself seized the first
opportunity to term it "another John
Henry stunt, from the rear It will
OF course be played up as an example
OF "persecutiOn," intimidation and
attempted assassination"
While from a political view point
1t is regrettable that Dent didn't do
his fighting before the first primary.
or defer it until after the second, vet
that 1T vas up to him to fight no brave
man will deny.
In a recently published attack on
Attorney General Collins Governor
Bilbo said:
"A great MANY of his compromises
have the armarks of being tainted.
especially his million dollar suit
against the oil trust, which he compro
missed for about twenty thousand dol
lars, being about two cents on the
dollar and at the same time made the
brother of the leading attorney of the
oil trust, first assistant attorney gen.
eral, in his office, the Hon. Walter
Dent, whose head is so thick until it
would take a thousand years for a
legal principle of law to soak through
his Uranium. l have been reliably in
formed that this offspring of his
trust compromise is the party who
suggested to Collins the damnable lie
that Russell would make me president
of the /. |. and c."
Dent says he considered this pub
lieation a reflection upon his integ-
rity and insulting, hence his attack
upon the Governor. Reader, put your
self in Dents place. What would you
have done? Would you, believing
yourself insulted and your integrity
questioned, resent it? If you would
you are too much of a man to be in
fluenced by any hypocritical cry of
persecution in this instance, and if
and If you would not you are too
small a man to deserve to be reasoned
with.-Madison Co. Herald.

TIE Guest OF HONOR.

THE GUEST OF HONOh.
"The Guest Of Honor" IS the title Of
/ William Hodges new play that will
bring him on his annual visit to VIII
mington for an engagement Of two
nights, Monday and Tuesday Of next
week only.
: Nothing, OF the story OF this new
play Will be dlvulged in advance, the
idea being to let them experience a de-
llghtful surprise, but thealregoers have
placed such trust in any production
that Mr.. Hodge presents that they will
be satisfied in knowing that it is ro-
nance Of New York society that con-
tains all the elements Of a good enter
tainment with the most pronounced fea-
ture being its humor.
As Mr.. Hodge is a typical American
comedian. it is only natural that his
vehicles should be of the true American
type and standard that are written and
enacted for American audiences whose
sense Of humor is more pronounced
than in other peoples.
From the advance sale OF seats 10 is
more than likely that both Of the local
performances will be greeted by crowd
ed houses and that every Hodge adj
mlrer will be found in the audiences.
