One of the best county papers
that we receive at this office is the
Jackson Herald. It is always full
of county news, and we are never
too busy to read it.
Iu Mississippi the negroes have
less political privileges than any
other state, yet fifths hundred of
them have gone there

' Theßepublican party of Jackson
county, at its last meeting in Jef
ferson on January the 17th, hear
tily endorsed the stand taken by
representative John N. Holder
against the Hardwick bill.
The fact that four states, Penn
sylvania, Delaware, Utah and Cal-
I ifornia, are deprived of having but
one representative in the United
States Senate, because their legis
latures have failed to elect sena
tors, greatly strengthens ihe pop
ular demand to elect senators by
[ the people.
Now that the poor people have
sold all their ootton, it is bringing
eight cents a pound. This rise in
cotton will do the south more
harm than good, for nearly every
farmer will increase his acreage in
cotton, and next fall, if this year
be a good crop year, cotton will
be bringing six cents instead of
eight.
Roland Ellis, of Macon, one of
the leaders of the filibustering
crowd iu the last legislature
against the Willingham bill, will
be a candidate for state senator
from the twenty-second district.
It is to be hoped that some good
man will oppose him and be elect
ed, as the next Senate can get
along very well without his ser
vices.
A lady at Griffin, Ga., husband’s
estate contained three shares of
stock in a local cotton factory.

I the mill with accrued profits.

i Recently she sold those five shares

The San Francisco Call has this
to say about Atlanta wanting a
National park in the south: “It
was there that Sherman gave the
country a demonstration of his
favorite theory that ‘war is hell.’
He shelled the city while it was
filled with women and children,
and burned it to the ground after
he captured it. One has to go
back to the dark ages to find in
stances of war waged as remorse
lessly as Sherman waged it at At
lanta. All that, however, countß
for nothing now. The Atlanta
people perceive a chance to get a
large, well-kept park provided for
them at the expense of the na
tional government, and it matters
nothing to them that it will com
memorate their defeat in war
fought years ago by men of a for
mer generation. The thing that
interests them is that it will be a
pleasure ground for the men of
this and of future generations,
and will cost them nothing.”
The assassination of Governor
Goebel of Kentucky has done more
to strengthen the demooracy of
that state than any political event
that has occurred since the great
fight between the democrats and
republicans began.

The following wail came from
the Intermediate Depaitmeut last
week. It has had the desired ef
fect, and we hope they will now
give us a rest:
If we should freeze today,
Our friends would look upon our smo
ky faces,
Before they laid them in their resting
places,
And fold our hands so cold and blue,
And wonder how we studied in a room
without a flue.
If we should freeze today,
Even the council gazing on our pa
tient faces,
("Wishing some one else were in their
place)
Would resolve to spend a dollar or two
To build our room a flue.
Oh, friends, we pray today,
Keep not the flue for other classes,
When we have handed in our passes!
Through the pipe the wind is sweeping,
The room smoky, our ayes red with
weeping.
When dreamless death is ours,
Or spring hath brought its lovely
flowers.
We will not need the flue,
For which we long today.
