EDITORIAL

From the exchanges that come to
our desk we notice that great many
Trustee Sales are being published,
indicating that many people who
have drifted into debt are both una
BILE to pay off their mortgages or
make showing by partial payments
as you seldom hear of foreclosures
where parties are anything like max
ing a showing. This state of affairs
was predicted by many wise-heads
when the great flush following the
war was on, but folks were money
mad and many could not be brought
to see that another day was coming
when money borrowed in the easy
times would prove bard to pay back
ia the hard times and the latter have
struck and some are losing their
property as a result of such failures
to hedge against the paying up
time.

The people down at Gulfport are
kicking up racket and appealing to
the citizenship of the state to help
them make noise loud enough to
startle Washington with their kick
against receiving only $50, 600 ap
preparation this congress for keep
ing their harhor channel open when
Mobile has gotten about half million.
Cussing the Republicans for their
sins is a pleasant task to some in
congress but it does not always
bring home the bacon when the pork
barrel is shaken, though it may
please the simple folks for whose
consumption its. intended. OF these
facts the better aware the better it
will prove to those seeking to rot
have their ports etc. given but beg

That was a wise decision of Post
master General viii Hays, to have
the postal employees arm themselves
to protect the mails against robber-
les. Robbing the U. S. Mails had
become common and great bags of
booty were gotten away with in
some of the hauls. But since last
spring when those handling the mails
in hazardous positions we're backed
up by the postal department in pro-
curing arms TO make for resisting
the robbers, robbing has fallen to an
almost neglible per cent so far as the
mails are concerned. This is as it
should be. The great public en-
trusts Uncle Sam with its valuables
for transportation from one part OF
the country to another and he who
makes bold to endeavor to take it
away from its guardians while in
transit. should be shot down if nee
essary to foil such foul purposes oil
loot and riffiing so sacred thing as
the mails in which every body is in
terested and which touches every
home and nearly every pocket book
in the land and it's safeguards can
not be made too secure.

Farm products were forced down
without the consent of the producer
who. under existing methods, has
nothing to say regarding price. Pro-
ducers, however, have not closed
their factories, but by lowering
production costs and attending
strictlv to business, are coming along
into better times with every man on
the job. The farmer, by producing
more of his own necessities, is In
creasing his purchasing power for
those things which he must of neces-
slty buy. Although the first to go
down. he is the first to get up. He
will have his affairs adjusted before
many other business men have learn
ed that the war is over.

Hattiesburg Citizen.
The Citizen has been asked several
times to state the status of women
in Mississippi since giving them the
ballot, as to their requirement. to
do jury service and to do road duty.
In answer we say: There is no law
ON our statutes requiring women to
do road duty. That duty by law Is
placed exclusively upon the male
citizen. The Constitution provides
thet only quakhed electors can serve
as jurors, but in the enactment of
the Code. Chapter on Juries, the
Legislature restricted this duty to
Male Citizens. Each of the afore-
said enactments were made prior to
giving the women the right to vote,
and the mere Acknowledgement OF the
woman does not require her to serve
on juries or to work the road. She
therefore, has this advantage over
the men. The next Legislature will
in all probability, take up the sub
jects. 1t has the power under the
Constitution to require the women
to render either or both duties. 1t
is an open question as to whether
they should be required to do jury
service

Fear Of Publicity Great Preventive
For Wrong Doing.

Lexington Advertiser.
Fear of publicity is the greatest
preventive of wropgdoing the world
has ever known. 1t is the greatest
agency for the protection of the pub
nc that has ever been invented. 1t
is worth more than all the courts
and jurles that exist in the world
today. Many man has been kept
in the straight and narrow path
through fear that bis wrongdoing
might become known. This is par
ticularly true as to public affairs.
There should be the fullest and free
est publicity as to all public offices
and those who fill them. Whenever
YOU find public officer trying to
keep anything pertaining to public
affairs from becoming known, there
can be but one or two motives. The
desire to hide something he is
ashamed of or something incompe-
tent. Just as sure as you are born.

One of the most delicate problems
that the legislature will have to deal
with when 1t meets early next year
is the matter of redistrictng Mis-
sissippi on congressional districts so
as to make seven instead of eight
districts, as Congress has deprived
Mississippi of one congressman in
the reapportionment following the
last census and. such reapportionment
becomes effective next year. All
those congressman who expect to
run to succeed themselves and next
year is election year for them, will
object to any more changes than can
be avoided to their districts.
