All aboard for Bay St. Louis

All aboard for Bay St. Louis.
This will be the call in New Or
leans bright and early on the morn
ing of Saturday, August 26th, when
fifteen hundred employees of the d.
H. Holmes Company will spend the
day in Bay St. Louis in their general
annual outing.
1t was known for some time that
the visitors were intending visiting
some nearby point for a days recre-
alton, but it was impossible to lesSn
what place was to be favored. Mayor
r. w. Webb, officers and others OF
the Bay-W -Waveland Yacht and Ath-
letic Club became busy and extended
the most cordial invitations. The
Yacht Club appointed a special COM
mittee and passed suitable resolutions
which were officially presented.
However, it was learned that It
took something more than an invita-
ton to get the visitors here. Other
places were after the number. Gov
ington had already gotten busy and
one other point along the Mississippi
Gulf Coast besides Bay st. Louis
had shown much activity in this di-
rection. But Bay st. Louis was not
to be bested.
We, who live here, know it that
Bay st. Louis is the best place in the
world-barring none-and we wish
to share with others Mayor Webb
made a special trip to New Orleans
and several letters from other sources
were sent in to headquarters.
Result: A letter received this

Mr.. R. W. Webb,
Mayor, Bay St. Louis, Miss.
Dear Mr.. Webb:
| am glad to tell you that our en-
ployees have voted to hold the outing
of Saturday, August 26th, in Bay st.
Louis. Although the L. & n. could
not do much for US in the. way Of a
rate, still we considered that it would
be quite worth while to give our peo-
pie one good, jolly day, so we have
planned to make the trip to your
city.
l understand from your letter that
we will have the use of the public
pier for bathing as well as the use of
the St. Stanislaus College pier for the
men. That we will be able to use the
Yacht Club building for the dancing
as we'll as for dressing rooms, and we
will have the use of the City Hall
grounds for picnicking.
| shall try to run over for the day
some time in the near future SO as
to see that everything is in shape for
our coming. l shall notify you ahead

SPECIAL ELECTION AT SELLERS
MONDAY.

A special election will be held in
Hancock county Monday-but only
in that district embraced by the ter
ritory OF the Sellers Consolidated
Line School. Purpose of election is
to decide whether the people are
willing to a proposed bond issue OF
$4,000 for the building of new
brick school building.
1t will be remembered some time
back the frame school building at
Sellers was completely destroyed by
fire. Insurance covered the loss and
as a result there is about $4,000 on
hand for rebuilding. But on second
thought the people Of Sellers and vi
cinity have evinced a desire to build
Of brick Something that would be
commemorative Of the progressive
spirit and of the disposition that there
is nothing too good for the cause Of
education. But it takes money to
build of brick The money on hand
at present is sufficient to replace the
frame building destroyed. Ten thou
sand dollars is the amount of the
proposed bond issue, and when the
ballots will have been counted Mon
day night it will then be known
whether the people wish to bond
themselves further Gn addition to
other bonds in that district) for
school purposes, or will they be con-
tent with a frame building.
Sentiment is pretty well divided
at Sellers, and the result of voting

Much Praise For Sergeant Meyer.

While Captain Waller and Lieut..
Arceneaux are very active and en-
thusiastic, and have worked in season
and out of season, yet we feel that
the success of the company is due
largely to the splendid training Civ
en- the boys by Sergeant Meyer, who
had been with US for several months
prior to our encampment at Camp
Williamson. So strongly do we feel
and appreciate his ability to train
and his willingness to do so, that we
passed an embargo on other COM
panies who tried to take him from
us. And when the company reaches
Bay st. Louis Monday night, July 81,
you can look for Sergeant Meyer
with them.

The Hottest of Hot DAYS.

The hottest of all hot days for the
boys of the H. o. W. Co. was Satur-
day, when they pitched their tents on
the open drill field. This work was
done between II and II o'clock. Not
withstanding the pressure overhead
and the rapidity of the boys below,
it was declared by the inspector that

were the most nearly perfect of any
line on the field.

Politicians Forecast a Shift in the
Original Policy of the
President.

Washington, July 27.-Slnce his
inauguration President Harding has
adhered to policy of no federal jobs
Tor negroes in the South. There are
rumors that he is about to make GER
tain exceptions to this policy. One
of the exceptions may be the naval
Office at New Orleans, since that po-
sition does not require contact with
the public and since the office, during
many Republican administrations.
was held by negro.
1t is known that negro voters In
the North have registered determined
protests against the presidents pol
icy. Republican leaders ins ONE OF
the doubtful sections of the North
are convinced many negroes will vote
with the Democrats at next falls
elections unless further recognition
is given their race. This has led to
the suggestion that certain offices IN
the South could be filled by negroes
without serious offense to the white
population.

Cohen Is Endorsed.

Shortly after the Republicans came
into power, Walter Cohen, New Or
leans negro, was endorsed for the
naval office. The president, in per-
sonal conference with Cohen, eX-
planned the policy which he had
adopted. Cohen, on that occasion,
told the president he fully understood
that the decision was actuated by a
desire to do what the president con-
ceives to be in the interest of the
common good. He assured the presl
dent that his action would in no way
dampen his efforts to be of service to
the party. Later, the president ten
dered Cohen the choice of two de-
partmental positions in Washington.
These he declined, it is understood,
because his private business requires
residence in New Orleans.
In view of the possibility of
change in the presidents policy,
Emile Kuntz, the Republican nation
al committeeman from Louisiana, Is
understood to have renewed his en-
dorsement of Cohen for the naval
office. If the president should de-
eide to nominate a negro for the
place it is certain that Cohen would
have very general support. The pres
ident is understood to have received
assurances from prominent persons
in New Orleans, who are entirely OPP
posed to the Office going to a negro,
that they prefer seeing it go to Co.
hen-long identified with New Or
leans-than having it go as a reward
to some negro politician from else
where.

QUICK SETTLEMENT MADE
 WHEN TURKS REALIZED
 ALLIES WOULD BE FIRM
AFTER BUT TEN MINUTES OF CONFERENCE THE TURKS EXPRESS WILLINGNESS TO SIGN PRO TOCOI-THRACE TO BECOME TURKISH TER. RITORY, IS AGREED.

MUNDANIA October 11-Just as the rays of the sun were rising Asia Minor the conference between the al lied commanders and the representatives of the Turkish Naonaiss affixed their signatures to the protocol Whcl brought to an end threatening conflict in the Near East
 Representing the allied powers were Generals liar ngton Mombel and Charpy; lsmet Pasha acted for the National government The time of signing the protocol IS given as 6:35 in the morning.
 The terms represented n the protocol were the ut- most concessions that the allied powers would allow the turks Among the specifications mentioned at the confer cnce were the following:
 "That as the Greek authorities withdraw from East ern Thrace the civil powers of that country will be handed to the allied powers who will in turn transmit them to the Turkish authorities s>
 'That this transfer shall be concluded thrOughout Eastern Thrace within thirty days after the signing of the protocol"
 "That in addition to these commissions the allied DOW shall be allowed to occupy Eastern Ihrace pending the formal transfer to Turkey.
 'That the withdrawal of the inter-aied missions shall occur within thirty days after the completion of the evac ation of Greek forces"
 The peaceful solution of the Near East tangle parent reached on the basis of surrender of Eastern Thrace the Turks with the proper safeguards for Chris tan minorties and the neutrality of the Dardanees.
 In addition to the acquiescence of the Turks to the terms expressed in the protocol convention putting into effect an amstce between the Kemasts and the Greeks vas signed by the delegates For time it appeared though the Turks would be recactrant this point but as it was included in the ultimatum it signed after short secret conclave between the Kemalist leaders
 The Kenast faction for time seemed to think that they held the balance of their hands account of an apparent misunderstanding among the allies. When the brought to Mdanla that complete accord existed in the allied camps that Turkish plans for dvd- ing the allied opinion had faed there came the rezatlon that Turkey faced the world aione that Kemal Pasha would fight his battles alone without other help than that of his countryen This it is believed brought about the hasv conclusion of terms and the signing of the document which brought to a close threatening war.

Many of those who have seen the mo- tion picture films of the contest nam tain that Carpenter was tripped by his opponent, Victor Brayer one ot judges taking this view. But he said that such a foul by Ski could not have affected the outcome as Carpen- tier was already beaten man.

SEATTLE, October 1.-The new Fordney- -McCumber tariff, which be came operative at midnight September Dist will be a stimulus to fish trad ing through the port of Seattle, De cause the tariff of two cents poun' of fish will act as a deterrent to the importation of Canadian fish. The tal if is expected to cause American tlsh ermen who hitherto have taken thel catches to Prince Rupert, to use kel ehikan and Petersburg, Alaska, as bas es of operations If this is done, good ly portion of the catch will be 1ced these Alaska ports and brought to oe attle for mild curing or other prepara- tion for the market. The tariff is said to have created considerable alarm II Canadian fishing circles, for it puts the Canadian fisherman virtually at th' mercy of the Canadian packer, slnc' the aDplication of 2 cents per pouh' will make it impossible for the Brll ;sb Columbia fishing vessel operators to market their catch here ln compe tition with American fishing Vesseis
