The other day we were talking
with one Of the shrewdest bust

said, ''the only reason you don't
sell your CLOTHES in every
home in Pensacola is that your
price is too low to please a man
who likes to pay more for no

Bilbo was candidate for Senate
against James *. Vardaman.

"And speaking of making an hon

that works fora living can get his
own consent to vote for that man
vardaman.
"Vardainau is like tlle lillies uf the
fields he tolls not. neither .loes he

BILB0 SPEAKS FOR
vARDAMAN'S ELECTION

A crowd Of Vardaman sympathiz-
ers gathered ut the Court house In
Philadelphia on Monday afternoon
to hear Mrs. Price and T. g. BilDo
who were speaking in behalf of Var.
daman's candidacy. In her address
Mrs. Price went to great length In
discussing che alleged action Of H. ID.
Stephens father in voting for ne
gro instead Of Il carpet bagger dur
ing the unsettled days following the
civil war. Her address was well re-
|ceived by her audience.
Both speakers were introduced by
Earl y. Richardson. In introducing
4. u. Bilbu, Mr.. Richardson praised
him. both as d governor and as d
man. He also lauded James X. Var
daman, candidate for the senate.
Mr.. Bilbo was greeted with ap-
plause and with his usual shrewd
ness Immediately gauged his audience
and won his way into It's good
graces. In speaking OF Mr.. varda-
mans inability to speak he blamed
the much maligned false teeth. In
the course OF his speech he said,
People say that should Jim varda-
man be elected. he couldn't make
any speeches, but would have to
take along some OF his perfumed
proxies to speak for him. Well,
what II he should? Didn't Moses
have to have an Aaron to speak for
him."
Mr.. Bilbo spoke for more than an
hour to an attentive audience.

FOREIGN PEST HELD UP
MADEIRA ISLAND PEST STOPPED At COLUMBUS.
BY Clay Lyle

A. & M. College, Miss. August 10.
sIn the City Of Fnnchai. there Ia
probably not a single house that is
not infested with millions of these In
sects," was the statement made
many years ago ny a traveller In the
Madeira Islands, speaking Of u de-
structivp ant pest whicti WAS tiiscov,
erred this spring by state Plant
Board Inspector at Columbus, Miss,
IN a shipment OF African lilies from
Honolulu.
: AS the colony ascomplete, incIud.
Ing queen ant and hundreds of
workers. 1t IL fortunate indeed that
1t was found In time to prevent It's
establishment In Mississippi, as the
housewives In many towns are AL
ready having trouble enough with
the Argentine Ant which was Inn
ported from South America many
years ago and is now found In So
towns In this state.
The discovery OF this pest was
made through the cooperation and
foresight of Columbus florist, who
turned the shipment over to the
Plant Board Inspector after 1t had
already run the gauntlet OF the post
al alauthorities. With such Intelligent
co. operation from all purchasers OF
plants In the state, the problem of
keenjng new pests out-of Mississippi
would be greatly simplified.

TAX REDUCTION POSSIBLE.
COUNTY AND MUNICIPAL
BUDGET SYSTEMS
jackson, Miss, August 26, 1871

jackson, Miss, August 26, 1919.
To The Taxpayers.
Do you want your taxes reduced?
A new law was enacted in 1892 en-
abling You to do so. Chapter 225,
Laws Of 1922, gives a majority of the
voters the right to reduce taxes. It
authorizes majority OF theresident
propelt ty owners to petition an cleo
tion as to whether taxes may be Inn
posed for any item Of expense. for the
county, city, or town. 1t prohibits,
after such petition has been filed. the
Supervisors or Aldermen from i'm
posing taxes, unless an election favor
ing. the expenditure has been held.
This law requires the Board of SUI
pervisors and Aldermen to publish,
in September, statement OF tie
money expended by them during the
previous year, and OF the money
which they propose to expend for the
various items Of expense during the
ensuing year. This is called BUD
GET OF EXPENSES" TT makes a
Supervisor or Alderman liable on his
bond for voting for any expenditure
exceeding the amount set out ia the
Published Budget.
LII you will Investigate, carefully,
you will find that schools and roads,
and other public necessities, are re
sponsible for a large part of your
taxes; that county and local taxes are
by far the largest part Of your taxes.
This is business proposition that
the Legislature has provided to give
you right to satisfy yourselves as
to what will be done with your mon-
ey; or to stop wastefulness and ex-
travagance in the Expenditure OF same
by your county and municipal board.
The HIGH TAX RATES [not high
assessed yaluations] are responsible
for HIGH TAXES. There lie 10
longer 'Taxation without Represen-
tation." This new law enables you
to lower taxes We urge you to take
advantage of It, See that the Boards
publish the budgets. and make no ISL
lowances in excess Of them. Pie .-e
satisfy yourselves as to the necessity
and honesty Of the expenditure Of
your money by these Boards, or halt.
byia contrary election, the wasteful
and extravagant expenditure Of yuur
money by them.
Yours very truly.
