Th rrs U a little coterie of talk- nJv-iXfiUlemen Fcattered around more or less connpicuoualy all over the State that are very diligent in trying to nuike it appear that Sen ator Yardman has made and is mak ing a great mistake in opposing the ship suhsidy hill and the prepared ness craze. lint it will he ohserved that these gentlemen most generally come from among that element of our population heretofore known in Mississippi politics as "antis," "cau cusites" etc., and are therefore under suspicion-have heen hunting for had things to tell on this man Yardman for all these years. Everyone is coming to realize that the ship suh sidy hill was a had thing and the prepardness talk is getting thinner and thinner as the daj-s go hy. Amory Times-Press The Weekly agreed with Senator Vardaman in his attitude towards the ship purchase hill, hoth as to his statemanship judgment," the courageousiiess of his conviction. and his consistency with democratic doctrine. It is 'becoming more and more evident as world events shape conditions regarding international 'commercial interests that the adop tion of such a policy would have heen contrary to the very principles upon which this free government is founded, and that the emer gency which was proclaimed by a syndicate of shipbuilding in terests existed only in their in ordinate greed to ilush their pockets at the government's ex pense. The Weekly impugns no representative or senator's motive in advocating that measure. It prefers to believe them honestly mistaken, s With congressmen, mistakes occur from lack of statesmanship more often than from dishonesty of mo tive. The mistake is just as hurt ful whatever the cause, as for that matter. . Mr. Yardaman's attitude towards the craze for inordinate preparedness is also coming to be fuliy appreciat ed by many who were swept oft their judgment' by the stupendous howl -afaT)J!,ff4 rl interc;stswao hop!

Mr. Vardaman, like all public men, who think right and act right, will come before his constituency a stronger man in 1918 than he was in 1911.

There is a strong demand for a good quality of cotton and a careful handling of the staple until it reaches the manufacturers. This need of a better staple and careful handling was responsible for rhe English spin ners promoting the large plantations in the Delta of Mississippi: . Under prevailing conditions it is more difficult to produce cotton at a profit than formerly, and for this reason the farmers of Mississippi are urged to use their best efforts to grow good staple and see that the bales are not weather damaged before placing on the market. I5y all means there should be standardized warehouses, bonded and sensibly managed in each coun ty where cotton could be stored at a minimum of expense and given a maximum of protection; the staple should not be allowed to get wet be fore marketing. The State of Mississippi could well afford to supply these ware houses for protecting a crop that brings to the State from seventy to ninety millions of dollars annually. And there is no reason why, with sensible management by honest men, that such a system of ware houses should not be self-sustaining. Shortly before the outbreak of the European war, the writer had the pleasure of spending several days with one of the large manufacturers of England who was here to make a first hand study of cotton and the conditions under which it was pro duced. He repeatedly emphasized the necessity of a better staple and the exercising of care to prevent water damage. Under date of June 20th, a personal letter from this gen tleman contained the following ad vice that is , worthy of careful con sideration by our farmers: - , ''I would like to express my views to you and other leaders of the dif ferent states, the conclusions that I reached while in your country. They were, thai the . conditions were ideal .Xetcpttpn Eojn nad.tber i ample room to encourage the people to grow a better staple. "Each district could be offered a substantial prize or bonus for the most successful improvement shown the same to be passed upon and classified by government experts. ''Secondly, that concrete stores should be erected in every cotton area where same could be graded officially and bonded, to be released only when prices were profitable to the grower. You know how it is ex ploited before it reaches the con sumer by people who are of no ben efit whatever to tha producer or con sumer, and it would avoid the mar ket being flooded at certain periods of the season. "What is to stop each state tak ing this up ? They should be gov ernment owned, government financ ed and a minimum interest charge made until such time as it is releas ed from bond. Cotton does not de preciate with keeping, and I am firmly convinced that the demand will grow very largely after we have settled the account with the mad Huns." This suggestion from , one of the large manufacturers is well worth the most careful consideration by our safest and best men. Cotton is otfr principal money crop and must continue so.. The cotton states should grant to the. producer every help possible to aid in financing and handling this, Uncle Sam's greatest export article of commerce. H. E. B lakes lee, Commissioner.

That they are able and willing to pay for. them in just tax levies is as little open to dispute. The revenue bill now submitted to the House for these purposes, pro vides an additional Federal income of $210,000,000. The new taxes proposed are taxes upon wealth. There are in no cases a tax on con sumption or poverty. These, there fore, meet the general test of justice in taxation. More than half of the new revenue will come from doubling the present normal rate of 1 per. cent., on ex cess incomes and increasing the sur tax rates from the preseut extreme of 6 per cent., to 10 per cent. These rates will still appear low when compared with the impositions now prevalent in Europe. But the exemptions remain the same, when they might be reduced to include all incomes in excess of $2,000 or even $1,500, if added exemptions were provided for dependent children. Why, moreover, is the muddling and evasive provision of "collecting at source' retained instead of substi tuting "information at source.' , The remainder of the new revenue will come about half and half from inheritance taxs, which were resort ed to in the Spanish as well as the Civil War, and from taxes on the manufacture of war munitions which are something new in Fedoral ex cise experience. No part of the bill will more commend itself to the public sense of fairness and fitness than this of munition taxes, for while the taxes fall on gross receipts they are measured up from excessive net profit as above 10 per cent. The bill carries provision for a Tariff Commission. That will have the support of all parties. It pro vides special protection for the dye stuffs industry, which is justified by the peculiar circumstance retd by the European war. Its most novel provision is that directed against ''dumping," whieh is made criminal as in restraint of trade and not a 'source of extra customs rev enue. This revenue measure in its gen eral character is unassailable. Its burden is heavy, but has become necessary, and that hurden is placed where it can most easily be borne and where the debt is greatest to a nation made stronger in its own de fense.
