DEMOCRATS. BE ON YOUR
GUARD.

The Clarion Ledger has been re-
quested to sound the alarm and
warn people of Kinds and other
counties OF the state not to 90 to
sleep in the selection of their del
egates to county or state conyen-
tions, lest slackers, deserters and
disloyal Democrats, wen who have
opposed and are opposing the ma
tional Democratic administration,
its plans and policies, slip in
enough delegates to control the
state convention, write its plat
form and select anti-administra-
tion delegates to the national con-
vention at San Francisco.
What commentary that would
be upon the real, true e-blue, loyal
Democrats of Mississippi.
Certainly there is no likelihood
of such disaster, but stranger
things have happened in politics.
The Reeds, the Cores, Smiths,
the Shields, the Vardamans and
other haters of the country's Dem
ocratic President, the disloyal
host. often referred to as band
of ,slackers and deserters, should
not be allowed any recognition
whatever.
This gang, universally repudi-
ated by the people of their own
states, should not be allowed to
have a look in at state or nation
al conventions.
They should not be permitted
to elect single delegate, and will
not be allowed to do so if the Dem
ocrats of Missouri, Oklahoma, ,Geor-
gia, Tennessee and Mississippi are
true to themselves and their peo-
ple-and several states have al
ready turned the slackers down.
No doubt there are little runts
in different counties, already con-
cocting schemes to get to the state
conventions, in the hope Of assist
ing some Of their demigods, or
trusting to luck to send them to
San Francisco.
If so, the real Democrats of the
country should knock their props
from under them, and elect them
to stay at home, for they would
be out of place and feel lonesome
and sad in a Democratic state con-
vention, which will give earnest
endorsement to President Wilson,
the League of Nations and the
peace treaty.
That the Democratic convention
will do, and the little fellow who
attempts to prevent the carrying
ont of the expressed will of the
people of Mississippi-the first
resolution of the kind having been
adopted by the Mississippi Press
Convention at Gulfport last week
will feel the effect of the steam
roller, a system always justified
when our fellows are doing the
rolling.
1t is well enough for Democrats
to be on their guard and not allow
slackers, deserters or disloyal
Democrats to go to state or ma
tional conventions
Keep them at home.-Jackson

The little fellow was constan,
ray of sunshine-a blessing to all the

unusually bright mind, which, coupled
with his sweet disposition, drew about
him a wide circle of loving friends,
who are bowed in deepest grief over
his sudden death. Heaven we know is

thing to be considered in this con-f
nection. There was the institution of
slavery, exerting an influence in Eu-
rope in the middle ages as it exerted
an influence in the United States. But
a factor of great importance in the
growth of North Europe was the pres
ence of iron mines and coal mines
which furnished power for machines
when the slave system broke down in
South Europe. 1t was the material
things of iron and coal more than
climate that in certain period gave
North Europe dominant position.
AS to the southern states of he
American Union, this section suffered
a devastation from war fully as great
as Europe suffered in the more recent
war. To the South came no such aid
as is now going to Europe's relief.
Southern men and women fought out
in the years following the civil war
battles that taxed their human re-
sources in peace as much as war had
taxed their material resources. It il
grossly unjust to assume that the
palsy that came upon the South
through defeat in the Civil war was
due to climate.
Going back to the lesson of remoter
history and quitting again the Lake
land Evening" Telegram's article,
'the great empires Of the North have
been built up in spite of their climatic
handicaps. The founders of those
lands took refuge there from the op-
preston Of the stronger South. The
icebergs were their fortresses, which
even the legions of Caesar could not
conquer. They learned their civiliza
ton from the South.
We may well agree with the con-
clusion that there is nothing in his.
tory to establish the claim that north
ern climaes are superior. On the con-
trary we may say with the Telegram
that "given an equal chance, ,civiliza.
tion, human cultures, all that makes
! for the uplifting Of the human race
attains it's most rapid growth and its
most perfect form where man is no,
burdened with the necessity of contin.
uously fighting against the elements
for existence

CLIMATE AND HUMAN PROGRESS

The erudite editor of the Lakeland
Evening Telegram did service which
should not be ignored when he dis
coursed recently on Climate and
Man. and with an eloquence equal
tc his logic spurned the delusion that
mild climates are enervating and
demonstrated the proposition that life
attains it's best development under
conditions such as prevail in Florida.
RepulAng the claim that the south
ern states are doomed by their eli
mate to take secondary place in the
march of progress, the writer points
out that the facts Of history do not
bear out this theory. "The old Assyr-
ians, the Babylonians, the Ninevites,
the Egyptians and the Jews were not
W weaklings. Though snow was a
stranger to them, and they sweated
under a scorching sun, they were
mighty men and aspired to rule the
world, just as their northern success
ors do today "And, surely he goes
on, none would attribute effeminacy
to the Romans, who, starting from
the reeking miasmatic shores of the
Tibdr, extended their conquests tt
the coasts of the Baltic and the des
oIate boundaries Of Scotland.

would say, the influence Of economic
