THE COURTESY OF EMPLOYEES.

The Sentinel received several weeks ago a very neat little
folder sent out by the Illinois Central Railroad Co. under the
title, How A Ticket Agents Thank You Won the Day for
Y. & M. V. Employees" The booklet relates a very pretty
incident about discussions of railroad employees and how
greatly a lady emphasized the courtesy and consideration
shown by a certain ticket agent. 1t is we'll known that the Ill
inOis Central Railroad Company has been educating all its
employees to be courteous and c~onsiderate for years. Not
perhaps that railroad employees are unlike other people, and
are less courteous, but because the railroad company really
wants its employees to be courteous and because by their acts
the public in a great measure guages the attitude of the rail
road company towards it.
The educative campaign by the railroad has no doubt served
a good purpose on others besides railroad employees. It will
little more in civility and courtesy without running the risk
of being charged with OVERRIDING a thing that means so much
in the contact of one person with another. 1t has been said
that CHARITY, covers a multitude of sins before God, so does
politeness before men,"
The Sentinel takes pleasure in saying that the employees of
the railroad company on duty in Grenada are uniformly obi
and exceedingly thoughtful and courteous. They are rep
citizens and seem to act upon the theory which
should govern all of us more or less, that we are everybody's
debtors. 49, r~--~

1t was another black eye for Mississippi when the blindly
"agln" members of the lower house of the Legislature defeated
a motion to reconsider the Bill introduced and fathered by Ex-
GOV. Noel and President Protein Fred B. Smith of the Senate
which pr y e for an increase in the corporate land holdings
from S2,OOO,OOO to SIS, 900, 900. The spirit behind the Bill was
to make it possible for large manufacturing concerns to enter
the State.
Suppose that a manufacturing enterprise owned So, 900 900
worth OF property, the present limit, and wanted to enlarge its
plant, under the present law it could not do it.
1t is stated on good authority that a million dollar contract
ing company has been making persistent and particular inuuir-
les about water power sites within Mississippi. and that it has
built many big power plants in other States. But if Investigations
show that what it has in mind cannot be done with a two million
dollar on hmlt, Mississippi will be deprived of this enterprise. We
Will lose IN taxes; our undeveloped resources will be where they
were when the Indians roamed over these hills and valleys, all
because some pinheads are "skeered" of big capital.

Where is there a community that would not like to have a

II IS pathetic fM, any people who are as grand and as noble
as afe those OF MISSISSIPPI to be water-logged by matters which
only serve as food for demagogues to dish out to unsuspecting
people Whlch people they are using to further their political
aims and ambitions. P

ABSENT VOTER LAW
NOT REPEALED

|, The following card has been issued
by Attorney General Frank Rober-
SON:
MY attention has just been called
TO a news item appearing in various
newspapers in the State of Mississip-
pl, which tends to create the impress
ION that the attorney general is of
the opinion that the "absent voter
law is not in force"
In order to remove any misunder-
standing that may have arisen in re-
gard to the matter, l am maxim. this
statement to the press.
The opinion referred to in the var
lous newspaper articles was rendered
on April 22nd, 1922, in reply to an
inquiry as to whether Section 2 of
Chapter 184, Laws of 1918, which
required the chairman of the County
Executive Committee to give notice
through some newspaper at least two
weeks prior to the first Monday in
May, that all prospective candidates
to be voted for, should mail or file
written notice with the chairman or
or before the first Monday in May
OF MS intention to become a candi-
date, was still in force.
AS was stated in that opinion.
2 and 3 of Chapter 1874.
Laws of 1918, were enacted so that
soldiers and sailors who were far re-
moved from home by reason of mill
tary service, might have ample time
to receive and return ballots by mail. |
The statute was enacted during the
World War. -
The legislature of 1920 enacted |
1856, which was a very broad
and comprehensive absentee voting
law. The 1920 statute does not men
ton in precise terms the 1918 statute
above referred to-. The opinion of
April 22nd stated that it was the opin-
ION of the attorney general that the
court would likely hold that the 1918
law was superseded by the Alb
sent Voter Law of 1920. 1t was fur
her stated that ever if the 1918 law
we're not superseded b. the 1920 Act,
hat unless the County Executive
gave the two weeks no.
ice required by the 1918 statute, no !
candidate could be shut off by failure !
o file his intention to become a cam {
on or before the first Monday
q May.
1t is my opinion that the 1918 Law
vas probably superseded by the 1920
ABSENT Voters Law, which is broader ,
nd more extensive in score. Z
1t therefore follows that under the =
900 statute, electors abse t. or an
icipating being absent from the
ounty, may vote in general and pfi-
nary elections, as provided for in u
he 1920 statute. P
