THE WAY TO DO II.

The question is being asked, ard
speakers are using it as subjects
from which to speak: what is the
matter with Mississippi This
is an undue reflection on our great
State. There is nothing the matter
with Mississippi, the matter is
with the people. Get the people
right, and very likely the state will
be alright.-WinstonN County Jour
nal.
The people are not all alright.
Many of US need little learning and
much energy.
The crowd though, that started out
to show US what is the matter with
Mississippi" by sending among US a
few miserable paid mouthpieces, has
made a miserable mess of its under
taking. More harm has been done
than good.
You will not 60 far in helping the
folks of Mississippi by insulting them.
We may look to, much like a bunch
of fools, but we learned long time
ago, that the Mississippi folks have
as much sense as any people. Every
honest man wants to be fair to the
corporations, but no brave man wants
designing corporations to own and
control us, even though, they have
millions to give us as 'hush money"
Let us all be honest and patriotic and
brotherly toward each other and Mis-
sissippi will be notwithstanding
Citizen.

hOWREY DEFENDS
SCHOOL TEACHERS.

When Representative Joseph W.
F'ordney, millionaire Republican
Chairman of the Ways and Means
Committee, made his ill-mannered
attack upon former President Will
son, he included contemptuous slur
upon the school teachers of America
in general.
No better reply has been made to
the Fordney doggerel and diatribe
than the remarks of Representative
B. G. Lowrey of this, the second dis
trict Of Mississippi, who protested
against ridiculing school teachers on
the floor of American Congress, and
paid high tribute to the "consecrated
service" rendered by the country
school teachers of America. Mr..
Lowrey said:
u wanted especially to express re-
gret that the usually genial gentle
man from Michigan (Mr. Fordney)
III the exercise Of his customary ardor
for the abuse of Woodrow Wilson
should have INDUCED in a vicious at
tack upon members of the honorable
profession from which Mr.. Wilson
came. He asserts that "a school
teacher is not much man outside of
his profession" and regales US with
the ribald doggerel:
'Good-by scholars, good-by school,
Good-by teacher, you darned old
fool
at is to be lamented that man
who gives himself to business and
makes money or who gains political
honors some times becomes so en-
crossed in these things as to speak
scornfully Of the men and women as
a class who give their lives to the
work of building character and pro-
noting culture in the world. The
teachers of this country are dedi-
eating their lives to making the men
and women who must make every
thing else that is worth while. Why
then, tell me, should they be ridi-
culed on the floor of the American
Congress?
eff teacher is not much man.
then certainly we must have some
very shoddy men disgracing the floor
of this House; some of them, strange
to say, members of the party which
the gentleman from Michigan cham
pions. Fess, of Ohio; Fairchild, of
Indiana; Andrews, of Nebraska;
Brooks, of Illinois; Temple, of Penn
sylvania; Towner, of Iowa; and 9TH
RS, all former educators, end most
of them former college professors or,
presidents. Likewise, there are a
few of the despised minority, such
as Aswell, of louisiana; Oliver, OF
Alabama, and Tillman of Arkansas.
Does the gentleman from Michigan
consider that because they come
from the teaching profession, for
sooth, these men are darned old
fools?'
Again, the biographies of the
Presidents of the United States show
that Woodrow Wilson was not the
only teacher among them. ! think
the gentleman will find, if he will in
form himself, that it is the rule
rather than the exception for Presi-
dents to be ex-pedagogues. Some
thing like three-fourths of the men
who have been raised to that high
position once taught school. And !
believe that similar proportion OF
Members of Congress and of the Su-
preme Court have Likewise been

A California girl who whistled on
her way home from church was ar

and got a verdict of two thousand

may have sounded very irreverant to
the policeman who arrested her, but
if the girl was whistling a hymn we
can't see much difference between
that and singing it or playing it on a
musical instrument.
