BUSINESS NOTICE.

Ihaye this day sold the Pascagoula
Democrat-Star to Mr.. C. G. Scott, of
the Chronicle, whose announcement
as to its consolidation with the Chroni-
Gle appears below. The sale carries
with it the entire plant, good will and
subscriptions list of the Democrat
Star, this being the last issue Of the
paper under my management.
W. T. SPARKMAN.
Pascagoula, Sept. 8, 1920
AS above stated, / have acquired
by purchase the plant, business and
good will of the Democrat-Star and
will consolidate same with the Chron-
icle, the paper being issued in the
future under the name of the
Chronicle-Star. The purchase and
consolidation Is made necessary by
the continued advance in operating
expenses and the fact that two papers
can no longer be operated profitably
in Pascagoula, covering, as they do,
the same field.
Soliciting the continued support of
the patrons of both the Chronicle and
the Democrat-Star and hoping there
by to be enabled to publish paper
worthy of Pascagoula and Jackson
county, | am
Respectfully,

TEXAS VOICE AGAINST COVE
NANT.

1t is no longer the case that every
newspaper that opposes the league
of nations covenant as submitted 10
the senate, is accused of knocking
in order to damage the democratic
party and assail Mr.. Wilson, Even
the Ell Paso Times, thoroughly Tex
an in matters of party, is standing
from under and anxious to show
that democrats are not willing to
back up the proposition as a polit-
lcal issue in a campaign. The Will
son attitude would bring that about.
The Times says:
"If this program is to be persist
ed in. the democratic party had as
well pull down the blinds, lock the
door and hang out a sign, Nothing
doing until 1924
The rank and file of the demo-
cratic party do not want the league
of nations injected into the cam
paign this year. Those who favor
the plan are not so ardently inter
ested in it that they are willing to
risk party success on it's endorse
ment at the polls, And several bye
elections in democratic districts
within the last few months prove
conclusively that the party is not
solidly in favor of the plan

PURSUING TAX EVADERS.

Il is stated by the federal in
come tax bureau, that the govern
ment collected over 100000, 900
last year out of income take dodg-
ers. over and above the amount
called for by the original returns.
And the commissioner says these
figures resulted from merely
scratching the surface" Appar-
emily he believes that a vast num-
Der Of returns are not fairly made,
and he IS going after delinqnents.
The income tax returns for 1919
are now being made out and re-
turns must be made soon.
As time goes on people will study
out new ways of beating the law
Tricky attorneys will show them
how to comply with the technical
requirements while violating the
spirit of the statute.
Now what miserable policy is all
this! The amounts raised by the in
come tax are large, but they bear
heavily only on very large wealth.
Those who arc paying heavy taxes
have all the superfluitios Of life,
everything that n normal minded
person could possibly desire, and
then some.
The desire to pile luxury on lux
ury is a form of mental alteration.
The people who have these great
fortunes should take pleasure in
filling out great big checg for
their government. They should be
thankful to God and the American
people that they have had the OPP
portunity to make so large a con-
tribution, and have enough left to
meet every human want and more.
Tax evasion will unsettle the
faith of many well meaning and
honest people in the existing form
of government. The people who
make misleading returns may save
a few misery hundreds or thou
sands by pettifogging. But they are
thereby endangering their entire
property. 1t is like the man who
changes his funds from a safe to
an unsafe investment, to get one or
two per cent more interest.

THE HORSEIEsS AGE.

Will the breeding of horses stop,
and is the horseless age practically
here?
All indications are that the horse
industry has declined since the last
census was taken. The Illinois de-
partment of agriculture figures, for
instance, show that last year there
were issued in that state 6,S9S IL
censes to horses and jacks for
breeding purposes In 1912 the
number of such licenses was 9,677,
This is a decline of more than a
third in only seven years.
Almost anywhere you go, the
numbers of motors on the roads
now exceeds the horse drawn We
hicles.
Yet there will always be rocky
and hilly land and rough roads,
where horses can be handled bet
ter than a motor, The life of the
horse will always be longer than
that of the motor AS the country
grows more wealthy, more people
will have both motors and horses.
The horseless age viii never come,
and breeders can feel confident
that q large number will always be
needed.

cotton in Chaves County.

The latest big enterprise which is
to find home in Chaves county is
cotton-the long staple kind which
has proven such great success
near Carlsbad and at other points
in the lower valley. Carlsbad farm
sre, from the small acreage in pro-
portion to what is going to be
pla anted. realized more than
100000 this past year. Carlsbad
is going into the venture next year
on big scale and, ChaveS county
is going TO follow the lead.
1t is now certain that more than
10000 acres of cotton will be plant-
ed in ChaVes county this year.
Some of this cotton will be planted
west of the city, some south and
much on the Berrendo farms. To
some extent this is true expert
ment, but cotton has been raised
so successfully at points in the
lower valley that there is little
doubt in the minds of agricultur-
lists that the proposition will prove
a great success in this county.
A number of the business men CT
this city have now become inter-
yested in the proposition and plan to
become cotton planters this year

principles of law These principles
may be self-imposed or placed upon
it by its relation with other states.
The principle of the state founded
upon law, DR.. Hill tells us, was first
embodied in the actual form Of
government by the American colo
nies in the last part of the eight
eenth century.
If the democratic state rests
upon law, the dynastic or imperalt-
istic state is founded upon power,
and the late war was a conflict be-
tween states resting upon law and
those resting upon power.
The problem, therefore, which
lies before America today says DR..
Hill, is not whether America shall
live isolated from the rest Of the
world. or whether she sail cast
her fortunes with them. Isolation
is impossible under present world
conditions. But the question of to-
day is. Shall the United States

Rhymes Along the Road
BY Bert Love.
OuP Holy Land.

Our Holy Lalld.
/ HEAR you preach of Palestine;
Jerusalem the golden
Exal,s your song; you seek a shrine
In sacred lands and olden;
In pious yearnings you would go
To lave you in the Jordan's flow.
Why twenty centuries seek to span,
On angry oceans toss,
When here today the Son of Man
Is pierced on Calvary's cross?
R,I look about you, now and see
NE Christ that walked on Galllee.
I say that He of Nazareth yet
Is present here, today.
Have you not oft His spirit met
Upon your daily way?
And know you not our Holy Land
Is this upon whose soil we stand?
That land | hold holy land
Wherever one may dwell
BY spirit-zephyrys is it famed;
BY sacerdotal spell
Are it's familiar acres aye
Encinctured, every night and day.
This little house, abiding-place
Today of me and mine,
1t is a temple: | can trace
The Architect Divine
Who builds for man His affairs, here
And now, this holy modern year.
If YOU would worship, if indeed
You seek a sacred shrine,
EXalt your own encircling mead' )
The broken bread and wine
of human service take and give;
Thereby in Palestine you live.

THE MIRACLE
oh, the daily cost of living

oh, the daily cost of living
Rises higher, like flame,
But the little home Love builded
Thrives and prospers just the
same!
There is warmth and cheer
a-plenty,
There is food upon the shelt,
And a corner by the heafthslde
For the God of Love himsel.
For the God of Love himself,
There he curls, where none may
spy him,
And | think he understands
Just how far the two have tray-
eled
Who set out with empty hands.
All, at times the way was weary
twas a thorny road and rough
But what worlds two hearts can
conquer,
Given love and faith enough!
In the crib in yonder corner
Loves most precious guerdon
lies;
Heavy lids with slumber laden
Hide the laughter in his eyes.
Can the gardens of the wealthy
Show fairer bloom than this?
Can the heart be starved for flowers
That has rosebud lips to kiss?
Nay. we go not clad in velvet,
And the only gem we own
is the Jewel of contentment-
A right rare and precious stone.

DISCREDITABLE no DE.MING.

Deming has q town council that
does not put an ordinance lid on
gambling. Thofore fight is billed
for the April municipal election,
when a ticket of individuals may
be arranged by the present regime,
and another ticket brought out di-
rectly against supporters of gam
bling. Deming is by a large ma
jority democratic. But the town
should ignore politics for local bus
iness administration, just as is done
in eleeting a chamber of commerce,
And most assuredly every town
should eliminate gambling games
and whatever other parasitic prac-
tice seeks to take something for
nothing from the people of a COM
munity. Paying a license tax is but
giving back part of loot as hush
money.

NAr GoULp,s sECRET.

Nat Gould in the art of story
telling represented in a SHINING de-
gree the triumph of imperturblillV
over criticism. Now and then one
or other of his books fell into the
hands of some conscientious critic
of English prose. and then there
were fireworks, for no man-nay,
no woman-of our time massacred
English with so perfect a lack OF
selfconsciousness He committed
every fault which is possible to a
writer. His sentences were form
less: there were whole pages when
might well have driven a gram
marian to strong liquor: but he
outlasted all the critics. He wrote
always on the same theme, his leVel
was uniformly bad, and yet his
publishers could supply pages OF
appreciations even from papers
not admittedly at war with the
English language. And the tale Of
his achievements as a best seller
runs into millions. y
His secret was quite simple; ne
rested secure on the fact that you
can murder the language with i'm.
punity and even with approNdl II
YOU do not murder the conventions.
In Nat Gould's books virtue always
triumphed, vice met its vile deserts,
and if people were made to talk as
no people ever talked anywhere,
they acted as their reader expected
them to act.
And there was this shining merit
in a writer who will never be
vouchsafed a page in any dictionary
of literature-he really seemed to
enjoy writing his books. There
was no tagging. Just as Charles
Fox would ride. whip and spur
vigorously in use, alongside the
strange animals which carried hls
colors at Newmarket, so Mr.. Gould
seemed always afire with his racing
chapters. Their infinite sameness
never wearied, him; he wrote as
he did, not from weariness, but be-
cause it was the only way he knew.
