Marshall, Father, Found Guilty of
 Being Accessory

Tupelo, Miss, April 2.-J. E. Mar shall. father of Charles Marshall, to- day was found guilty of having been an accessory before the fact to the killing of William (Burkley) Miller, infant victim of the quadruple mur- der at the Miller farm house, near Amory, January 15 last and for whose murder Charles Marshall has been sentenced to be hanged. The verdict of the jury in the case ot the elder Marshall carried with it life sentence in the penitentiary.
 The case was given to the jury shortly before noon and verdict finding the aged man guilty was re- turned in about two hours.
 The state concluded the presenta- tion of evidence late yesterday. The defense offered no testimony and made no argument. One address was made to the jury this morning by an attorney for the prosecution.
 It was stated this afternoon that the case of Felix Marshall, another son of J. F.. Marshall, also charged with complicity in the killing of the four members of the Miller family-Robert Miller, the father his son, daughter and grandchild,--- probably would be postponed until the next session of court.

EXPULSION OF THE SOCIALISTS,

The New York assembly, it seems, has made mistake in expelling the live socialist members from the city of New York. None of the five was guilty of genuine act of disloyal. ty. The chief thing against them was that they were socialists. In our own senate we have men-listed as republicans or democrats-whv have been guilty of more acts of dis. loyalty and of un-Americanism in a greater degree than any of the New York socialist legislators. They are still in the senate; in some things, unfortunately they control the cen. ate. No proceedings against these men have been undertaken.
 It is well that while the New York assemblymen are busting the five ir- responsible and near harmless so. cialists who were duly elected to the seats they have been dismissed from. that some action be taken to oust the greater enemies of America
 There was no legal grounds for throwing out the socialist legisla. tors, and no real reasons. There ia some legal grounds to oust some of our senate obstructionists and sui, ficlent reasons. Why not?

A REVIVAL OF BOURBONISM.

The standpat republican New York
 Tribune has been engaged in war
 of words with the independently
 democratic New York World, arous-
 cd by the revelations in the World of
 the immense campaign fund being
 raised and spent in the interest of
 the candidacy of General Leonard
 Wood, says the Commercial-Ap Appeal.
 The Tribune brands the World ex-
 pose as being piece of "demagogic
 partisanship" and then proceeds to
 announce that the spending of mon-
 ey is absolutely essential in any po-
 litical campaign. Of course, it de-
 nies that anything improper has
 been done by the Wood campaign managers. But in denying improp- CT use of the fund the Tribune proves nothing, since it does not dis prove the amount of money that the World says has been raised in the interest of General Wood, and this IS the main question. If the big slush fund alleged by the World has been raised this very fact itself is improper and violative of the new standard of political ethics.
 The attitude assumed by the Trib une is thorough in it's bourbonism. It refuses to accept the new order of morals in American politics. To the Tribune there must be criminal ty in the expenditure of huge fund in politics to make it rcprehensible, as II the size of the fund itself did not initiate against a free and unin. flucnced choice by the electorate off the nation. General Wood, too, treats the country hardly less cava- lierly than does the Tribune when he 1 denounces the motives of those who are asking that he make public a record of his campaign without promising to furnish the infor- nation desired.
 Whatever may be the aims and motives of those demanding the pub lication of campaign donors and the amount they give, the right of the public to know all about any man who seeks public office is unques- tioncd. The best thing General Wood can do is to take the public into his confidence and make a full and complete statement of his cam paign receipts and expenditures. The people have been educated to new political ideals and they will refuse to, accept old and discredited reac- tionary methods. General Wood does not commend himself as pub lie servant by defying the public even before he is commissioned to serve.

pected by republican leaders. They had a conference today to discuss future legislation at this session and Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, said later that he did not anticipate any great delay in the senate.
 MT. Lodge who returned today from a brief vacation, said the whole controversy had been "thrashed out pretty thoroughly" and that he be- lieved the house resolution would be adopted probably with the united republican support and general oppo- sition by the democrats.
 The leaders decided at the con- ference that army reorganization legislation would be the next meas ure taken up by the senate. They expect to dispose of it by the time the house has acted on the peace rsolution. It will be followed by the house bill to increase dyestuff tariffs.
 MT. Lodge said early action on the Anglo o-Amer1canFrench treaty was not expected and that until the treaty of Versailles had been dis posed of it's consideration was inn probable.
 A recess of congress over the convention period, MT. Lodge said was probable. i

sissippi, for instance, ought to know what Mississippi wants. They have elected legislators who are supposed to represent them. These legislators have said that they do not want to ratify. Then the issue is between the people of Mississippi and the legislators of Mississippi.
 Legislators who do what they be- lieve to be right and who act with the wishes of their constituents at heart are pretty nearly doing their duty.
 Mississippi's representative were chosen to represent Mississippi and not to do the will of the people out side of the state of Mississippi.

Reject Proposal
 for an Armistice

Warsaw, April 2,-The Polish gov ernment has rejected counter pro- posal by the Russian government for an armistice along the entire battle front during the proposed peace ne gotiations between Holland and so- viet Russia.
 It was in their note rejecting the armistice proposal that the Poles also opposed the holding of the peace conference in Esthonia, as had been proposed by the bolsheviki in answer to the acceptance of peace hour parleys by the Poles, suggest gotiations.

has been done, both surface and

uncovered on both sides of the

of the existance of a large body
of high grade ore that by assay
has shown average values of $50
per ton. We also visited the
American Eagle which was one
of the heaviest producers at the
time it was being worked. These
properties have been combined

of the world at $20.67 an ounce.
Gold is gold alright but still an
ounce of it will not buy any more
than would $20.67. In days past
when labor and supplies cost on
ly half as much as they do at
present, gold was worth as much
as it is today. While the cost of
producing gold has doubled, the
value of it has not changed. an
ounce is still worth only $20.67
although according to the adj
vance in price of other commod-
tiles, say 100 per cent it should
be worth $41.34. Sometime il
sells for a premium but that is
an uncertain market. All mdi-
cations however point to gold GO
ing up to an unheard of price.
All the waring nations of Europe
especially Germany and Austria
are very low on their gold re-
serve and before their money is
accepted at it's former exchange
value they must get a proper
amount of gold reserve.
Our opinion is based on a cur
sorry examination and inquiry
while on the ground and while
we lay no claim to being an auth
ority in these matters we believe
these facts to be self evident.
Within another year or two the
cost of production will be back
to normal and with the South
Fork road accomplished still fur
Their reducing the cost and max
ing the country more accessible,
we confidently look forward to
this district becoming the great
est gold producing district in
America if not in the world. The
country around Elk alone has al
ready Welded $50, 000,0 900 in gold
and the surface has not been
scratched yet. The deepest
workings of any mine in the
district. that of the Buster are
only $50 deep and gold as any
other mineral shows greater val
ues as greater depth is secured.
The Bunco men have had their
day, the new era of real develop
ment by scientific and honest
methods and management is at
hand and nothing except the fail
ure to provide a good road up
the South Fork can delav it be-
vond few years. With the
first link of this road now under
construction the region already
shows a new activity that pro-
tends a bright future for the
mining industry.

they quit operating these mines
and what is the future of the
mining industry of this section.
These questions recur to you so
often that they must be settled,
in your mind at least, before you
can get a proper perspective of
the future. To sum up the
causes in just a few words, we
would say; bad roads making the
cost of operation in low grade
ores Improbable, overcapitaliza-
ton or what is sometimes called
Indicating" and the price of
gold as compared to other COM
modities. The value of gold has
