The Tragedy Of Bruised
and Broken Poland

The people OF Poland once more pay
with blood and sorrow The penalty
for the defeated avarice Of their rul-
ing classes. From the dawn Of Pol

Tor their personal gain.
Through the 800 years OF what Is
known as Polish independence. the
people Of Poland were used by the
mobiles in ill-fated wars for aFgran-
dizement; and while they fought for
plunder for their rulers they were
themselves plundered by as perfect a
system Of special privilege as history
knows OF.
When, after i25 years, Poland was
restored as a nation through the
issue or the great war, It's war-weary
people yearned only for an oppOrtu-
nifty to prove their capacity for self
government and self-development.

prosperity, but once more were
robbed, at the very moment of realiza-

sent forth on a war of conquest In
Russia for the extension OF boun-
daries.

tyranny, the favorite OF, their rulers

another But the tragic result may
eventually serve for the salvation OF
the people Of Poland who, II, in the
end, free themselves from foreign
yoke, probably will take steps Ia

tion OF an independent Poland meant
TO them only renewal Of the ancient
lease on privilege by which Poland
was wrecked in the eighteenth cen

In those good old days the Polish
nobility produced the perfect flower

Inhabitants OF a district were held
collectively responsible for crimes
committed within the district, that

revenues in the way OF fines. -
The foreign yoke under which the
Poles passed in i795. was no more bit

LOCAL NOTES

Next Thursday will be July /.
Rev. Bryan Simmons of Clinton,
was a Brandon visitor Tuesday.
N. H. Nash came to town Mon
day, and reported gloomy crop
prospects on account of so much
rain.
A week from Sunday will be the
4th day of July, and may be ap-
propriately celebrated by church
attendance.
Boil weevil are reported from
all parts of the county, and many
of the farmers are blowing their
cotton up and planting the land to
corn.
On account of the great number
of boil weevil found in his cotton,
Walter Barnett, a good farmer liv-
ing near Dobson, has plowed up
every stalk of his cotton and plant
ed the land in corn.
The Baptist protracted meeting
will begin at the Brandon Baptist
church next Thursday night, July
1st, and will continue for a week
or ten days. The pastor, DR.. M. O.
Patterson, will be assisted in the
meeting by Rev. J. R. Mutt Of SEN
atobia, former pastor of the
church. A cordial invitation is
extended to every one to attend
these meetings.
A record load of chickens and
eggs was brought through town
Monday, en- route to Jackson. The
truck contained 600 dozen eggs
and over a hundred choice frying
size chickens, and was the prop
erty of our good friend, S. L. Gard
ner, who lives near Pickett. Mr..
Gardner has been engaged in the
produce business for number of
years, and since the advent of the
truck, has made the business a
paying one to himself, as we'll as
being a great help and conven-
fence to his patrons.
]. E. Johnson and J. P. Frank
lin, trustees of the Shiloh school,
came to Brandon Tuesday for the
purpose of awarding the contract
for the erection of new school
building at Shiloh, but after
reaching here found that the ST.
500 bond issue recently voted for
that purpose, had not been sold,
and of course no contract could be
made. The school building at
Shiloh was destroyed by fire last
winter, and the citizens determined
to replace it with a modern build
ing, and the bond issue was car
ried without a dissenting vote.
The bonds pay 6 per cent. inter-
est, are non-taxable, and are a
good and safe investment. Some
of our citizens who have the mon
ey to spare should buy these bonds
and thus make a good investment
as we'll as helping those good peo-
pie out of trouble.

Yesterday was the longest day
of the year.
Albert May was a visitor to Pc
lahatchie Tuesday.
Mrs. S. l. Donnell passed
through Brandon yesterday en-
route to Huntington, Texas, where
she will make her future home.
Mr.. and Mrs. Roy l.. Fox are the
proud parents of fine 7-pound
baby girl, born at the Jackson
Sanitarium yesterday afternoon
at 2 o'clock.
H. E. Crook, of Greenwood, was
here the early part of the week,
Visiting his father, who was pre-
pairing to leave for an extended
stay in Leake county.
T. H. Collier has just installed
his new home-lighting plant, and
it is giving splendid service. This
convenience adds much to the con-
venience and attractiveness of his
handsome home.
Mrs. ]. c. Cole, of New Orleans,
was here last week for few days
visiting in the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. w. H. Barnes. She was ac-
companied home by Miss Viola
Burns, who will spend several
days visiting in the Crescent City.
Mr.. and Mrs. w. S. Crook left
the early part of the week for
Walnut Grove, in Leake county,
where they will remain for sever
al weeks, Mr.. Crook being under
medical treatment of DR.. Goldman
for cancer of the face.
Sidney Stapleton, who is now in
charge of the telephone exchange
at Rosedale, Miss, spent Sunday
with homefolks. He was looking
for two or three girl operators,
the positions, he says, being very
desirable and pay good salaries.
G. G. Pierce, one of our good
farmer friends living few miles
south of town, was here Tuesday,
feeling blue over his crop pros
poets. On account of the shortage
of labor and so much rain he is
badly behind with his work, and
sees no hope of saving his crop.
w. L. Maxey, one of the best
farmers of the county, is not at
all worried over the boil weevil
situation and the continued rains.
He always has a good crop, and
makes plenty of stuff. The secret
of his success is due to holding a.
stiff uperlip and working hard and
intelligently every day.
Maj. A. A. Weille came out
from Vicksburg yesterday, and
