7jhe Cast 7/fisstssippi TJiives SL'HSCRIPTION, ONE DOLLAR AND FIFTY CENTS A YEAR VOL, XLVII. STARKVILLE, MISS. MAY, 8 1014 NO. 18. Wm, Wrd, Editor and PublifHcr. Nobody wants to be the friend of a man or a woman who is without faults. ____________ '♦** • '*• The man who fishes on Sunday isn’t as bad as the ego tist who fishes every day for compliments. Secretary Bryan and Huerta might meet over a friendly bottle of grape juice and settle the trouble. Miss Eleaner Wilson, who is to marry McAdoc, will be a step-grandmother and is not much over 20 years of age. Nobody had any idea we had so much diplomacy laying around idle until we got into our little racket with Mexico. Why don’t some foreign power come to our rescue and arbitrate or “mediate” or do something to stop that war in Colorado? % r*r Ella Wheeler Wilcox says “Laugh and the World Laughs with You,” but she had no reference to the ass who laughs at his own jokes. A negro preacher in Baltimore claims to be an own brother of Gen. Villa, and says that Villa is a negro and was born a slave in Maryland. The high cost of imported food products is having one good etfeet. It has aroused Mississippi to the necessity of raising everything to eat at home. It looks like the great United States might be able to setlie matters in Mexico when that country has an Indian leading' One faction and a niggbr the oth^r . b.t., I- 1 .1 ■! >.;. t r If Gen. Sherman’s definition of war is correct we are compelled to arrive at the conclusion that there are thou sands and thousands ot American patriots who are anxious to go to hell. “Mexicans Pray for Peace” is the heading over a re* cent Associated Press dispatch. We have learned more and more about Mexicans since this trouble with Uncle Sam. No one ever thought of a Mexican praying before. . We don’t know but that Upton Sisson was correct in the stand he took with Witherspoon and Stephe.n on the Mexican trouble. Why shouldn’t five salutes to the flag been sufficient to have healed our wounded honor instead of 'twenty-one? But the ways of the diplomat are mysteries. 'ln Memphis they are turning bank wreckers out of jail in order to make room for the illegal liquor dealers. Re cenfly they turned a man out of jail in that city who had stolen more than a million of dollars from all classes of people and immedialely placed another in his cell who had sold a few bottles of whiskey contrary to law. Let the angels weep. • Our old friend Charles Caj-otl\ers, of Memphis’ seems to be in a newspaper controversy with Mayor Crump, of that city. Mr. Carothers was once the editor of the Times and he knows hdw to take care of himself in a newspaper war or any other kind of war. Charles is “prodding the mayor with a sharp stick” and trying to make him enforce the whis key laws in Memphis. Hence, the disturbance. A strong effort is being made to revive the almost i e fund Mississippi .Press Association. A circular letter has been sent out to the brethren which closes with the following paragraph: “The city of Jackson i* leaning over its parapets and wnivinsyoii a welcome, And last, but by no means least, Your I'line Hira n Henry, the distinguished, the versatile, the gal hint, and the handsome; the uestor of the Association; he who took it upon his own I no: and shouldeis to throw wide open the gates of his city for this meeting, like a giant collossns, stands with one foot on the Clnrion-Ledgir building and the other on the State Capitol, awaiting with open arms to receive you. Now will you comet” What newspaper man could resist such an appeal? i lie Times editor is having his last summer's suit of clothesclea.i- j ed and pressed and is packing his giip ready to start >i. and hopes to reach Jackson in time to lend a helping h u.d in , rescuing Col. Henry from his , perilous and uncomturlable j position. ; , U I *>’ * i Private John Still Lives. John Allen in his speech before the Hnr Association at Gulport last week told the following on himself: ‘'Gentlemen, several years ago I decided to quit making public speeches but an incident happened a few nights ago that caused me to change my mind and I concluded that I would, in the future, make at least one speech a year. Recently I war coining down Mobile and Ohio railroad and | about 11 o’clock I went, into the smoking room to enjoy a cigar be- j fore retiring. One lone passenger j was the only occupant and he j accosted me thusly: “My friend where did yon get on j this train!” “At Tupelo, I answered.” “Tupelo, that’s the town where Old John Allen used to live isn’t it!” “Yes that’s where he lived.” “I remember hearing of him. but the old guy has been dead a long time hasn’t he?” “After this” said Private John, “I thing I will make an occasional speech to let ray friends know that I’m still in the laud of the living.” Bridges for Mayor. Mr. U. C. Bridges is before the people for mayor. Mr. Bridges is a man who does things, and when he enters a campaign lie goes into it with all of the energy and en thusiasm at his command. The same thoroughness, push and painstaking care has characterized his career as alderman. In this capacity he has served the people well. lie is liberal and progres sive when liberality and progress benefitted the city. He has con vi uifffUS of his own, and in these conylcttoifs hfl is generally right. He is a imfi 0* Itnvd, com mon ‘‘horse-sense,' 1 ’ J/e is practi cal in all his ideas and is a .closej student of municipal government. His heart and soul is in Starkville’s progress, material and spiritual. His honesty of purpose has never been questioned and his worst enemy admires his integrity and admit* that he possesses the "backbone" to do what he con ceives to be the right thing.’,' Bob Bridges would make a good mayor. Whether looking after the city’s financial affairs. Sitting ig judgment on violators of the law, or informing the social func tions that this 0/JJc ■ at times re quires, he wop Id mwtt fjje enter-1 guncy in a satisfactory and euniit- 1 able manner. Candler Announces. Thc/uinonnceiiieiifof lion. K. S ! Candler, Jr., which appears in our i announcement column this week I will be received with satisfaction and gratification by that'gentle men’s many loyal supporters in Oktibbeha county and throughout the district. Mr. Candler’s long service and experience has titled him for the duties of repie-enta tive in our National Legislative halls, and those duties ho Ims always performed with fidelity, never neglecting th'e smallest obli gation and always ready and on the alert to comply with the slightest wish of any and all ot his consti tuents. His record—public and private, needs no investigation. He is, perhaps, the best known, and one of the best likid men in the First Congressional District. In our national councils he ran’s high, and there his advice is o- ght and his influence recognized. One nf flic hardest blows tlml the Mexican trouble las given President Wilson is that onr scrap with these measly Greasers pre vented him from tossing the first ball in the American League race at Washington. As the President is a 33rd degree fan it must have been hard on him to have hern denied the pleasure of attending the opening game of the base hall season, but such a life—even President’s can’t have everything their own way. * For any itchiness of the skin, for skin rashes, chap, pimples, etc., try Doan’s Ointment. 500 at all drug store*.
