The Horne.Run Thrill.


A baseball fan writes to his favorite
paper toprotest againstthe undeserved
honors heaped upon the "slugger."
Why, he asks, should home-run hit
ter be .Honized above a fast. runner;
who uses both feet. and brains, or q
smart pitcher, who uses both brains
ns1d arms? }s+-"z-ff+. 4. '"z sa' 49, 4;
The answer is easy. Tie home run
IL the limit Of accomplishment in bat
tillg.ss There is, there can be, nothing
bigger. WhenSit coms; with the bases
full It is catastrophe, and there is
enough of the savage in all of US to
delight in catastrophes that leave us
untouched. In some :kis subcOnscious
impulse shows itself In fomenting pol
itical revolution. Such people would
like to see a universal smashup, the
world turned. inside out just to see
what it would be like afterward. in
the baseball devotee the home-run with
the bases full satisfies this craving.
SO far as that particular game is con-
cerned, the home-run is the crack OF
.doom.-New Bedford Standard.

Anti-Saloon League
Wages Fight on Beer

Washington, March 20.-The An
ti-Saloon League is prepared to fight
until the opinion by former Attorney
General Palmer holding that beer
may be prescribed as a medicine is
overruled, Wayne B. Wheeler gener-
al counsel for the league, announced
tonight in formal statement. The
league, he added, has a number OF
plans, to be used as the occasion de-
mands.
1T is astounding to think that
beer can be sold at soda fountains
with all that it implies" Mr.. Wheeler
said in reference to a recent state
ment by the former attorney general
as to the effect of his opinion. "This
last statement makes clearer than
ever before, the vice in the opinion. u
Mr.. Wheeler declared that even ii
beer may be prescribed as a medicine
the law required the utmost care on
the part of physician and the keep
ing Of careful record of all pre-
scriptions.
THE records Of the doctor and the
druggist are open to inspection, he
continued: mo one but licensed
pharmacist may MI the prescription
The doctor or druggist may have his
permit revoked at any time he vio-
lates the law. Those restrictions will
prevent the sale of beer at soda
fountains. The hazard in the trade
will be such that reputable physi-
clans and druggists will refuse tC
handle this booze medicine in most
places"

Brings Self to Penitentiary,

Tom Walton, young white man,
was convicted at recent term of the
Monroe County Circuit Court on the
charge of manslaughter and sentenc-
ed to the penitentiary for a term OF
two years. A week ago the Supreme
Court affirmed his case. This morn
ing he showed up at the office of the
penitentiary board of trustees and
reported to ]. j. Conan, secretary
that he was ready to begin his SEN
tence. He had come from his home
unattended by any officer, preferring
not to wait for the travelling SER
geant to come for him. He spent
the day seeing the sights Of jackson
and took the afternoon train for the
Oakley convict farm.

EFFECT OF DAMAGE SUITS.

The habit of people rushing to
court for every single personal in
jury or alleged injury has grown to
dangerous proportions in Mississip-
pi. We began by filching the public
service corporations, because of the
prejudice they were easy prey; but
there were not enough of these to
supply the demand, and get-rich-
quick individuals have been turning
their attention to private individuals
who happened to be so unfortunate
as to have accumulated some proper
ty.
A case Of this kind occurred in
Vicksburg recently, but the suffer
ers in this case are not quietly sub
mltting to an unreasonable jury YER
dict.
A driver Of one of the Oldest Arms
in the city accidentally backed the
delivery truck of the firm against the
hand OF man who was opening a
gate for the truck, and mashed off
three fingers. We are told that the
car was being backed through the
gate at the solicitation of the injured
man. Suit was brought for $4,000
dai lages and the jury in the case
gave $4,000. The members of the
firm representing a family of about
thirty men, became so incensed at the
unreasonable verdict that they deter
mined to sell the business and re-
move from the city. 1t was not a
threat, made in the heat of passion.
but a determination to leave a state
where such thing could be perpe-
trated; and the business was imme-
diately advertised and sold. 1t Is nm
derstood the large family will move
to Detroit.
We hope this rebuke will cause an
awakening in Mississippi, If for no
other reason than for the purpose of
keeping good people from leaving the
state. If man should be carelessly
damaged be should be entitled to fair
compensation, but unreasonable YER
diets simply because the victim has
money is both grossly unjust and de-
trimental to the state.-Port Gibson
Reveille.

of 1914 per cent, although more than

the soldiers were the pick of the Ma
tion while in London the old, young,
feeble, sickly, etc., were the victims.
Let 1t never be forgotten that the
best earthly blessing is health, and
too, that nothing excels it except true

that sanitation is the thing we need

fortunate failures and butcheries and
destroyers.
Right here in Meridian typhoid
fever ragged until a good system of
water and sewerage was installed and
the city cleaned up, and since that
was done, we have not had another
epidemic of typhoid fever. About
nine years past we defeated the Med
ical Association and an expert virus
maker from New Orleans before our
City Council on vaccination and end
ed compulsory vaccination, and since
that time we have not had another
epidemic of smallpox; thereby DEM
onstrating that smallpox is perpetual
ted by vaccination and that it is end
ed by sanitation. Now, therefore
let the diseasing officers change to
health officers by ceasing their dis
ease business and recommend and
teach hygiene. 1t is so unwise, ex-
travagant and cruel for any man OF
set of men to insist on our peoples
being diseased and even forcing, II
upon them when they will allow
them to do so
