lee POWELL IS GIVEN
THREE-yEAR PEN TERM
Other Alleged 'Stillers viii Be Tried
Next Week.

| Holly Springs, Miss, Aug. 26.-The
/ jury in the case of the State of Mis-
sissippi against Lee Powell, charged
with attempting to distill whisky in
this county, returned verdict of
guilty as charged on the first ballot,
after being out only seven minutes.
judge R@ane sentenced Powell! to
three wears in the state penitentiary.
This case was hard fought and has
stirred public interest as few cases
have in long time, on account of the
fact that it was felt that one of the
'1iger ups" of the liquor traffic
was on trial and that law and order
should be indicated.
Powell and his alleged confederates
were captured about three weeks ago
by officers and citizens of Byhalia in
the swamps of Pigeon Roost creek,
with one of the largest copper stills
ever seen here and with all the ingre-
dents and paraphernalia for making
whisky, and also in possession of a
big automobile and truck loaded with
the outfit.
The outcome of this trial is held to
be a victory for the enforcement of
the law, and the people here feel that
a forward step has been taken to
break up the traffic in whisky, which
has overrun this county of late, and
that it will at least stop one source
of supply and be warning to others
who have been coming into this coun-
ty and running rough-shod over the
people. District Attorney Knox was
assisted in the prosecution by Wall
Doxey, county attorney, L. G. FAINT
and E. M. Smith, and the defendant
was represented by L. A. Smith,. of
the local bar, and ]. E. Bell, of Mem
phis.
Anderson Colley, Dewey Holland
and NJ. E. Roberts, who were also in
dicted along with Lee Powell for the
same offense, will probably be tried
during next week.

Ripping Rhymes
BY WALT MASON
EUGENE DESS,


In q prison cell he sits, for his car
nival- of crime, jailed for throwing
sundry fits at a nervous. crucial time
Now the crucial times is past, and
'hwould make the angels weep that
we hold him, Gagged aud fast, signing
in his donjon keep. Poor Eugene!
His heart is good. and his courage
high and strong, but his head has
wheels of wood and they're always
turning wrong; and when the war was
sweeping by. sponsored by some tin
horn kings, he reared up. nine cubits
high, and reeled off some foolish
things. Then the hearts of men were
hot as we watched wars crimson tide,
and we all were talking rot-but we
took the proper side. Then the wheels
in Eugene's head backward turned, as
is their wont, and he paved around
and said some silly things in language
blunt. And he's been in Jail for years,
and it seems he'll there remain; while
the beastly profiteers flourish on their
crooked gain; and the gangsters run
at large and the slayers shoot and
stab, and they are not placed in
charge of the prison, grim and drab;
and the swindlers and the thieves
raise their divers kinds of hell, while
poor Eugene sits and grieyes at the
window of his cell. In the hustle and
the rush many errors must prevail
but Uncle Sam should blush that this
ran remains in Jail.

The Testimony of Mr.. Dawes

Charles C. Dawes, former head of the army
timony before the house war investigating COM
mittee, laid down the broad principle that
supplies were purchased regardless of cost for
the men at the front. He asserted that it was
the duty of the nation to provide the fighters
with supplies and not to bubble about prices
We believe his frank statement will do as
much to clarity misapprehensons regarding the
enormous amount of supplies of all sorts that
were purchased by the army and navy during the
war. Officials had no time to argue with manu-
facturers about prices, but with the allied armies
bending under the strain of German opposition
had to obtain equipment and supplies for the
American army which was to relieve the situa-
ton.
The eXigencies of war do not permit dilatory
tactics and hagging Speed is an essential
Waste is logical result. The experience of the
American army is no exception, but it is doubt
full if our wasteful practices were as great as
those of the European armies.
Mr.. Dawes also explained why the United
States sold supplies and munitions of all sorts to
the French government for $4OO,0OO,OOO. After
the war was over, he said, this material had to
be classified as junk and sold for the best price
He believes America made good bargain in sell
ing the supplies, and added that Great Britain
today wishes she had disposed of her war mate
rial in the same manner.
Referring to the cost of the war, Mr.. Dawes
cited the committee to the ineffiency of the gov
eminent in the administration of its civil affairs.
He suggested that the government annually
spends millions for which it receives no more in
return than did the army for the millions which
it spent.
On this point the American people will concur
with Mr.. Dawes statement. If the army and
navy to be charged with prodigaty, surely
the civil government cannot boast of its econom-
ical and business-like administration of our af-
fairs. Hardly big business in the country
who would not be able to point out how the gov
eminent wastes millions to accomplish it pur-
poses.
