LOWRY LOOKS
Over Mississippi and States the
j Condition of the People.
0 THE RACES h'i PERFECT HARMONY
Jack- in, Misfl., November 18.—[Staff Cor
respondr-nco Constitution.]—Governor Robert
Lowry gave me a long t ilk this morning abo* t
Mis- ssippi and its condition. He talked
plainly and clearly, concealing no eyesores and
bringing out only the best, but ho spoke of the
state’s n<- Is and sorrows as well.
The governor is now serving his second
term, and on the whole has been in the execu
tive-chair six years. If anyone ought to lie
familiar with the condition of the people,
surely it is the man who for six years has
given his whole time and attention to the
: late. Mi.ssi idppi has an agricultural cominis-
■ sioner, but inasmueh as he receives only ten
dollars per year salary, a very good idea of his
i importance can be gained. The condition of
the people, I obtained directly from Governor
Lowry,and as a very short time ago he made
a lour of a large part of the state, his knowl
edge of affairs is recent and exact.
Standing before the fire in the executive
oliic<- with his hands behind him, a favorite
position, Governor Lowry said:
“The people of M hsis ::ppi today are better
oil than at any time since the war. This seems
a startling Btatement to you, and it is in view
of the accounts Ihai Lave gone abroad of our
condition, but, sir, it is the encouraging fact
th at during a p» riod of twenty years our peo
ple are in a better condition now than ta any
oilier time.
“Wi- pay It. j taxes than any southern state;
our entire amo"i.t of taxation as paid in from
all source . would not pay the interest on Geor
gia’s bonded debt. Our ra<e of taxation lias
been lower f ir the past six or seven years than
in almost any oth« i f ><iic: last year while Ala
bama v. is paying nearly six mills, while Geor
gia v j r < cg-\ mi l>, we were paying only
‘. mdls hi on th u.hl.ir. The rate this year is
■. m.li , bn; .t ih line to the fact that the legis
laiui p;o\ ;<!< i| !<-, an isuie of b< nls for tiie
purpose oi aiding (-nn state enterprises. Our
bunded «iebi i ■ <n ah otoly less than one mill
ion. while car < n ire debt, including every
’I In/ i lea . IThis I take it is a
g- oil showing.
“ J'hcrc 1 > one thin” greatly in our way, and
that is <> ir assessment laws. There are coun
ties in tin state wh e aggregate return# will
not. equal the value < f <»ne Lugo plantation in
Ihe equity. In one <o:ini.> alone, Washing
ton couniy, the pr.q ity in that county is
worth, to niy kn wiedge, six millions of dol
lars, and yet its return is less than twelve
thousand. My preder'-ssor and myself have
endeavored to s< cure proper ;*.• e.-smeiit laws,
1 io so lai we have aucompHshed but little.
W.‘oiingtmi county, the, ricin si. in the state,
is .1 splendid ox.iuij 1c of the way in which the
wtahh <d . i hm • ippi is misrcpD scntcil to the
world. A plantation in that county worth $15,-
tjoo is returned for luxe* at Nl. 'M), one for
which S/0.000 in cash was rufnvcd not long
ago 1 > returned h r as many hundreds, and it is
.'•lib-io bay that not one-.,i.-.th ot the properly
• Mijsi sippi is .mb. •< 1 Io 1.1 .al.on. II yo 1
go to the amiitor’s l ooks and see the valua
tions thc.e, the statu mak< s rather a poor
. howhi. This ;.r,ir the aggr gate valuation
will bt about ’;tud yet, if th’-ro
< uld be found a man whowas worth :>4X),O(M>,-
o h’, his wealth could not buy the taxable prop
erty of the state.
“Our planting interests are in a nust favor
able condition there is much to be <lcsircd,
but yet everything is hoj- ful. For three years
•- 1 crops ha\< be-n go d. this year our corn
lallv good. Our 1 pie 1
gone more into itoi k rai ung. 'I --day there are
more horse and male colts in the state than in
twenty years. The amo is true of cattle. ■

THE WEEKLY CONSTITUTION ATLANTA. GA.. TUESDAY. NOVEMBER 22. 1887.
! convicts. '1 he board of control can remove a
p-ii'i'l, 'an can, <;) a conlracl, or do anything
; v. ithin reason or law for the good of the m, n.
0 (il course, it is ....vprctnd that the c< uvi' t
i should work. Wehave non •of that sc-.liiucnt

; permit the /on- i ■ to sit and have comfia-talde
y nieal- bicughi to him. We believe he shouid
work hard, and have that treatment accor.b d
him th-.t 1 h ristianity has de; Jared shall be
r- given these men.
■t “But the great Oiing hag keen accomplished
II in tho matter. W have the convicts now so
!l phv ed that the state is relieved of all cxpt-i. e,
: while at the-same time it looks after the w<d-
1 fare of the prisoners. With this great burden
0 mi , 0111-state and county taxes are very light.
: It is desirable that at least two-thirds of the
1 I ta- alye p- ,petty Id the state should be made
. 1 to sri ig in revenue. The present amount is
B | merely arbitrary. Not one man in a thousand
ever gives m his property under oath ; ai.d the
■ result t.s a you see. With the same rate of
) taxation ami a proper system of assessment
i tin state would receive a great impetus, be
. caii-v: Hie revenue raised would allow it to help
, those institutions that now receive lint meagre
J support. Our educational institutions m?< d
help, and with the new system they would
1 get it.
“Some years ago, I had occasion to write to
a northern paper and there made the stato
. mint that if our delta country was protected
from overflow, it could supply the world with
_ cotton. It could easily do so. It is the richest
■ country on earth, ami tho solo disadvantage it
has is that arising from annual overflow. This
makes with us the levee system all important,
the state and the counties affected by (he
. overflow Lave various expedients by which
tii y raise money for tho improvement and
■to 11 Aliening o£ the lev. c, and
ii'ili year it is doubtless made
strmi. - r and stronger. This neces
<•< -i’y of keeping up tho levee is a heavy tax
upon the people of the delta country, but it is
one they have to stand. When Mr. Cleveland
vetoed the river and harbor bill, he greatly
outraged at first the sense of justice among
ti-. • cl ss of our people, and they were disposed
to be hard upon Inin. But they have forgotten
that, and the whole state is solidly in line for
him. He will ree dve the solid support of tho
M ..ssippi delegation, and unanimous vote of
tiio state.
" 1 Ir fact,” continued the governor, "in that
Cleveland has given us a strong administia
-1 .-m. r i he re. ent election in New York was a
great victory for him, and it means that he
will be—renormnated by acclamation. And
he eight to be, for, to my mind, ho is tho only
man in the party who tan lead tho forces to
victory.”
“Do I understand you to say you aro a
Cleveland man?”
“That is my position,” answered tho gov
ernor. jl. (j. p.

g a i A NIGHT OF HORROR.
I. I
i ! Dangerous Journey on Horse
oj bac k
e I
I THROUGH THE ARKANSAS SWAMPS.
e
From ti e Chfeogo Times.
1 I had been s :ma days in Memphis resting
J myself from the fatigue of my long journey
’ and looking for a ho- so. Bay Beauty had car
, ried me many a long mile from the distant Al
leghenies, and I feared that, under the Lard-
- snips yet to be undergone, it was possible that
■ she might break down. Finally I succeeded
J in selling her and purchasing another horse.
, Nita, my new acquisition, rvasdescribed in her
j “papers" as “a black or brown mare, about
nine or ten years old, 14f hands high, and a
good saddler.” And so she. was all of those
1 -and much more. In a few days she had
learned to know me perfectly. All day long I
could ride with the knotted reins lying loosely
upon tho neck, and direct her by verbal com
mands, aided by the very slightest pressure of
either knee.
I used the military commands, and she
obeyed as willingly and swiftly as would the
most intelligent soldier. I took long rides
near Memphis, and, camping at night in the
open, Nita was turned loose to graze. In the
morning she was often nowhere in sight, but
the sound of my shrill hunting whistle would
lind her out. and soon I would hear her rapid
hoof bc.it.iiig the prairie as she Would dash up
at full gallop, and thrusting her soft, velvety
muzzle over my shoulder, Mould whinny in
evident delight.
On my return to Memphis from one of these
excursions I found a telegram ordering me to
proceed with all speed to Little Bock, Ark.,
stopping at Des Arc ui the way.
Nita and 1 crossed the great river on a
steamboat going to M- uml City. Wo left the
boat at Wade’s Landing struck oat westward
for the Blackfish. The distance from Mound
City to Little Kock is about one hundred and
ninety miles, of which more than one hundred
and twenty-live lie through swamps. Afti r
leaving Mound City the road as far as tlio
Blackfish was bread, smooth and level, and in
no wise indicative of the efiarat t< r of tho road
ytto be traveled. The mighty Mississippi at
this part of its course spreads out on its western
bank into broad, vast swamps thicklv grown
with great trees. Many yeats ago a military
road was cut and built through these swamps,
and today an experienced woodsman or travel
er can still follow the old road by noticing the
gaps in the trees. Several rivers run through
the great swamps, and ent-, rprising colonists
have established little hamlets at tho points
wlieie the road reaches each river. There
they have constructed rude ferries, with boats
of various typos, sometimes propelled by the
force of the stream itself, the direction being
guided by an ingenious system of lines, but
usually the gr: at liat-1. itt.smcd raft or beat
would make the traverse by sheer muscle
applied to long poles. We slopped all
night nt a friendly farm house, and next
morning bright ami early started for the St.
l-’r.'ii' ls river. Half a mile from otr starting
I" “it the r. a-l entered thoswamp. Nita's hoofs
disappeared below the water, and in all that
day 1 did not see them again. It was the
weirdest, strait .- ■ ■t ride I have ever taken, and
many a thousand miles have I covered in these
many years 011 horseback and in many climes.

pl :..e-l into th- wild morasses. I fear that I
i not streugiy enoimli expressed the utter,

any hit.i. in min , ii .yore you ever penetrated
'. j tin ;■ solemn ilruil.s: you leave no trace of
yimr jeurmy 1., h-ml' you. You are alone.
Soon I f mn-'i that :uy informants had in no
t -.vise cragrerated tiie hoii ir.s of that swamp.
Instead of the brilliant water with its gold
* brown carpet of leaves, there stretched vast
morasses of si-my gray or black mud, scarce
concealed by hi s-'ius vegetation, with sinster
leaves and livid blooms. Deep pools of muddy
water often cr<-sed the trail, and once and
I uy uin Nita lost her feet and I felt her swim
ming under me. Ranidly the storm gathered,
; and great gloom and blackness tilled the air.
The wind sobbed and moaned dismally
through the twisted, sullen trees, the road
i grew more and more obscure, and at last I
i halted, with a horrible doubt growing fast into
I belief in my mind that we had lost the trail.
1 brought Nita to a halt and anxiously peered
into the growing darkness. The wind grew
fiercer and blew angrily, great pelting drops of
■ rain began to fall, the thunder muttered in
the distance, and Nita was trembling in every
limb, so I pushed forward in what I judged to
, be the right direction, cursing my folly at not
having taken the good cpusel preferred me.
Nearer and nearer came the storm. At length
I found myself on the brink of a pool larger,
blacker, more hideous than any 1 had seen.
Low, si reg-.ling trees surrounded it, with gnarl
ed roots high in the air. like writhing water
serpents, and lank boughs outstretclfM. After
a moment's hesitation Nita ventured in. Deep
sank her hoof ; in the hideous mud, and the
black, foul water crept up her sides. .Suddenly
there was a scream in the air, a wild rush of
the mad wind, an intense blinding glare, the
awful report of some huge trees near bystrick
cn by tho fiery lightning. Nita fairly shrieked
in her terror, plunged wildly, losing her foot
ing, and flung me from her back. I struck
against the limbs of a low tree, and grasped it
iu tinctively, and looked around quickly for
Nita. She was gone. I stood there in that
hideous pool, try ing to realize my position.
1 lien I thought 1 would work my way to the
tree and climb into the branches and whistle
Nita to me when the fury of the storm should
pass. What- was i,iy horror when I found my
feet firmly fixed in the slimy, tenacious mud.
I could throw my arms over the low bough I
held, and I did so, putting forth my every ex
ertion in a t aln endeavor to free myself. Mean
while the storm was raging in all its fury. The
wind howled and shrieked through the trees as
though a million demons were let loose, the
thunder crashed unceasingly, and the light
ning in awful llaslu s ever and anon lit up the
darkness. The lain fell in torrents and
drenched me to the skin. I gave myself up for
lost unless the storm should soon pass, when,
if 1 could till then hold on, X might get Nita
back, and holding fast to her, be drawn from
the quagmire in which I stood. That I might
husband my strength, I succeeded after much
effort in loosening from my waist a broad
leather belt, and, passing it under my arms,
lashed mys<lf thereby to the limb to which I
clung. The hours passed, and yet the storm
seemed but to increase in fury.
Suddenly 1 realized that I was .sinking deeper
in the water, and vet that was impossible,
lashed as I was to the stout limb. Soon I un
dvisiood my awful, pcs!lien. The water was
si-lire. The realization of the awful doom that
threatened me chilled my heart's blood. Cold
bc;u s of perspiration broke oat upon my clam
my forehead, and 1 shrieked aloud in agony.
Slowly I could feel the water creeping upward.
Fran:ieally I s'ru.glcd to free myself fiom the
close-dinging mud that held my feet and
legs as in a vise. Fortunately it was that
I had lashed myself fast, for at length I
i*-list b.;ve tainted. 113 w k-ng I lay, or rather
hung, there unconscious 1' do ‘not know,
but hours must have passed, for the
storm had censed, great murky, nigged clouds
were flying across the angry sky, and tho wa
ter—l gasped in horror, it was at my breast,
and rising -. .. biy now. The :d .w hours wore
by, and thesull . wator crept ever up, greedy,
hideous. And a stolid calm camo over me,
and all itnmlndful of the growing light that
heralded tl.e hi -.h of a new day. 1 kept a dull
g;-ze upon the talgo • / the water a .‘it crept
