Edwards, member of the railroad com
mission for the northern district.

for the resignation of Mr.. Edwards
is based on sworn testimony before

has been guilty of drunkenness in

meetings. of the commission while in
an intoxicated condition, and in the
opinion of Mr.. Whitworth, is unfit to
perform the duties of that office.

INDIGNANT SENATOR

Speaking in the senate chamber at
Jackson, Thursday, one Of the senator's
waxed warm and wrathy because of
the fact that Tax Payers League had
been formed to aid and assist the law
makers in finding ways and means to
bring about a reduction of taxes in
Mississippi. He said the question Of
taxation should be left to the legisla-
tors, and that people over the state
should not NEEDLE in the mater.
1t is a wonder that this particular
law-maker did not burst from his own
swelling. How can a man be called
meddler who attends to his own
business And is not the question of
taxation the business of every man
who owns property?
If such men as John F. Frierson,
of Columbus; C. c., Ivey, of West
Point; James Stone, of Oxford, and
r. F. Simmons, of Water Valley, are
meddlers, let there be much meddling
in the affairs of the public.
No man, unless he be a crook or
CRATER, will urge single objection
to the work of the Tax Payers League
the aim and object of which is to help
the legislature find a way to make
lighter the tax burden that at present
is bearing many men of our common
wealth down to financial ruin.

Draws Inspiration
From Columbus Man

The following letter written by Miss
Annie Denman, Of Jackson, to Mrs.
Brownlee, of our city shows conclu-
sively that it pays to be pleasant;
Dear Mrs. Brownlee:-
have murdered a man; but he
doesn't know he is murdered yet.
Would you like to tell him? If so,
get into Polly Ann and drive around
to Piggy Wiggly's. But I'm begin
ming in the middle of the story; you'll
think me crazy.
Today the incest Of our city papers
asked me to write q poem about one
of our citizens who has been dead for
year. a man whom | had never
known nor heard about. ] promised
to do it by this afternoon, and was
promised little ch~.k for the work.
Only a few miscellaneous scraps Of
information could be gathered; and
there | was; the promise made, the
man unknown and the day all too
busy. From what | learned ! wrote
half stanza, and stopped; then the
man who works at the door of the
Columbus Piggy Wiggly store came
into my mind. His pleasantness and
courtesy and seemingly personal in
tercst in all who came into buy some
thing-this kept running through my
mind until the idea came! Without
deliberation, | made myself imagine
it was your citizen who had died,
and in whose memory | was writing.
Then, although | didn't know his
name. there was at least a person
ality to think Of, and | wrote. You
see. we college girls had been made
tc feel glad many times by just walk
ing into your interesting store; and
when | had almost forgotten it, there
was the pleasant, interesting man
again when | visited Columbus last
spring. Whoever would have thought
that so casual meeting with a char
acter would furnish material one day
for a poem. So | had him dead, figu
ratively; and if what wrote isn't
true about the really dead nan, why
those who love him will think it is
true. Little Teacher" says; and the
check may pay for several washings.
The poem follows:

In Memory of A. G. Wilson

We miss him still about his place,
His cheerful smile, his manly face,
His voice which made a stranger stay
To see the man who spoke that way
A friend was he along the road,
In silence lifting many load
To soothe a weary fellows pain.
| wish we had him back again!
Today our Renaissance brings
His thoughtfulness in little things.
A task to him was never tfitc
If he believed it kind and right!
A bit of sunshine went with him
Beyond the Mist which makes so dim
The future; but he left behind
His best work, for he was kind.
ANNIE DENMAN.

Extreme care should be taken in

gotten rid Of.
