'Y0C0NA-TALLAHATCHIE
DRAINAGE LAW KILLED
Supreme Court gives Knockout Drops.
The Proposed District a Matter of
Great Concern to Many in Grenada
County.

Jackson, Miss. April ia de-
cision by the Supreme Court Monday
in the case of A. G. McLemore ct al.
VS.. Yocona-Tallahatch Drainage
District is expected to lessen to some
extent the flood waters from the up
per section of the state now being
DUMPED into the lower YaZoO basin
through drainage bitches.
The suit was appealed from the
Chancery Court of Pamela County
where Chancellor MCGOWAN held that
the Yocona-Tallahatchie District
could be extended to include certain
lands in Tallahatchie and LefiOre
counties. The suit had been bitterly
contested by the Lefore county citi-
Zens.
Under the plans of the district the
flood waters of the hills were to be
discharged from a so-called new river
into the Yalobusha near its mouth,
and much apprehension had been felt
as to the possible effect of project on
the flood stages at Greenwood.
The Supreme Court decision will
check the plans of the district.
The action of the Supreme Court
is very gratifying to many citizens in
Grenada County and scores of others
up and down the edge of the valley
from Batesville to Greenwood. The
scheme was stupendous. The cost
was staggering. 1t is stated that th.
engineers gave assurance that the
preliminary survey would not cost
over forty or fifty thousand dollars
but that they have already spent over
and still the survey is not

accommodated.
An earnest plea for cleanliness in
politics and less of factionalism, the
evil effects of which had injured the
state immeasurably featured Mr.
Stephens remarks, and his speech on
the whole was along the lines of the
speeches he has delivered elsewhere
in the state. There was no question
about the crowd being with Mr.. Ste
phenS from start to finish and he was
given a great ovation when he con-
cluded.
This was his first visit to Holmes
County, but his friends are confident
thaFhe is going to carry it by tre-
mendous majority. On the other hand
it is conceded on all sides that the
pique shown by Mr.. Burch under the
circumstances and the evident as
sumption on his part that he could
appear at the speaking engagement of
any candidate unannounced and de
mand that the arrangements be al
tered to suit his pleasure had injured
instead of advanced his candidates
cause.

by staging Minstrel Revue" at the

Revue" is said to be not only elabor-
tely and scenically equipped but con-
talns many new novelties-which

GREAT REVIVAL Meet
ING CLOSED SUNDAY
Over Four Hundred Conversions and
Reclamations. MIR. Culpepper Made
Beautiful Statement AS To How
Grenada Had " or His Heart

The revival meeting conducted by
Rev. Burke Culpeppsr, of Memphis
closed last Sunday night with the
most satisfactory results.
The minister delivered three SER
mons Sunday; one at II o'clock, a
m, one at O'Clock and another at
1880 o'clock .. n. The service Sun
day afternoon was 10 men only.
There were good congregations at
all the services. The elements seemed
. to be cooperating with those behind
the meeting. There was nothing to
mar the progress CI the meeting at
any time.
a spirit of interest seemed TO grip
the, entire town and many from other
nearby places. There was something
thrilling about what Mr. Culpepper
said; there was something soul-lifting
and soul-inspiring about what ne said
that made one interested whether he
really wanted to be interested or not.
Possibly there were some who thought
the minister said some things which
did not add TO the force or effective
ness OF his sermons, but these even
kept coming 10 hear. No doubt Mr..
Culpepper said some things at times
that he perhaps did not intend to say,
but this was very. very infreQuent.
! One Of the many beautiful things
y he said and cid while here was at
the last service Sunday night when
S,e took into his hand a piece of white
&aper and tore from its center a
FnaN or crescent shaped niece, at the
sme time telling his hearers that if
p had hurt anybOdy'S feeling he
anted them TO forget it. and that
ne hoped that they would let the
small piece OF paper he had torn out
represent the ObjectiOnal things said
and that he wanted them TO insert
in the place Of the torn piece of pap
er another piece which he wanted
any offended to insert as representing
what they thought he ought 10 have
said. He said that he was never in
any town or city where he was treated
more kindly and considerably. That
Grenada had been lovely to him and
to his wonderful helper. Mr.. Robin
son. MS singer.
Short talks were made before the
closing service by Mr.. Culpepper. by
Mr.. Robinson, the choir leader, by
Revs. z. A. Tucker, J. r. Cunningham
and w. E. Farr. 1t was a sort of love
feast before the minister delivered
his last message of the meeting.
The total conversions and reclama-
tiOns listed were 455. however, it ap-
pears that some Of the secretaries
had listed some of the names twice,
but undoubtedly the total will run
over 400.
Those who had given their names
for church membership had also listed
Their church preferences, and the
cards bearing the names were turned
over to the pastors of the different
churches and all asked to be on hand
at the church OF their choice next
Sunday morning for the purpose of
completing the step taken at the
meeting.
Mr.. Culpepper wrote every one who
came to the altar a personal letter.
He did all he could to get in personal
touch with those who came to the
meeting.
Grenada was glad he came The
community with almost one voice
agrees that he did great work.

joint discussions. but for some reason
the challenge was declined He stated
further in this connection that he
stood ready and eager to meet the
former senator on the stump at any
time and at any place, but was not
going to engage in joint debate with
an un 'erling or henchman. All they
have to do. Mr.. Stephens said is to
