what tho Brandon Republican has to
soy upon the subject;
Nr. benson, Of Lcakc, introduced
a bill to compel Boards Of Supervis
ors to publish their proceedings. This
is a good bill, and We hope it will
pass. Our Board has always publish
ed its proceedings. but the Boards in
many counties have refused, because
they did not want their constituents
to know hat become of their money.
Their plea generally is that il cost
too much money, bnt that is not the
real reason, because we have propos-
cd 10 do it for several counties at
half our regular advertising rates.
Force them to publish their proceed
ing5 for the information OF the tax
payers, and il will save the county
five times the cost Of the publication.

The STAR moved last week 10, and
is now located at, the I'ascagoula
Depot Scranton p. o. and is much
more conveniently situated for the
mails, and more central to this COM
mmity.
We will not say 'cofimunities" for
above all, we desire TO impress upon
the minds of our home people the
identity Of interest Of the Moss Point.
crs, the Scrantonians, and the aborig-
inal Pascagoulians--the Sea-Shoreites
and as we are one in interest, we
are one community in feeling and
fentiment. 1t cannot be otherwise;
if one particular section aourishes,
they all will, and pice versa.
For the benefit Of those at a dis
tance who may become confused in
the use of the names Scranton, Moss
Point and Pascagoula, we will explain;
that Pascagoula is the original viii
lage on the coast, and the railroad
depot one and a half miles back from
the coast is Pascagoula Depot I; but
when a post Office was established al
the depot, it Lad to be christened q
different name, there being already
an Office at the village Of Pascagoula
and it received the name Of Scranton
In honor Of the Gen. Supt. OF the
railroad. Moss Point, where the
mills are located is four miles from
the depot, still farther back from the
coast (up the river).
At each Of these places is a pos
Office and hacks run to Moss Poin'
and to the Sea Shore on the arrival
Of each passenger train, although there
is only a ~seTi-weeklY, regular mail tc
Moss Point.
Pascagoula may therefore be con
sidered a generic name, embracing Tho
whole ~locafity-Scranten and Mos
Point-although mail matter for the
Depot must be addressed to Scranton

Governor Ames is not only d

himself Of the adyentiiious aid Of the

aid" rendered him will claim, aud is
to receive, the gubcrnational action
and influence, solely to promote the
partisan ends of politicians; and
the wishes and best interests of the
people, are to be matters of secondary
consideration. AS an instance a
vacancy occurred in u Board Of
Harbor Commissioners; the lame Of
Capt Pol was submitted to Gov.
Powers just before his retirement, as
one eminently suited for the position.
Capt Pol is in no sense a politician,
nor has ever interested himself in
politics He is a man Of property,
possessing a deep interest in the well
fare of our locality, and is peculiarly
fitted for the position for which he
was, entirely unknown to himself,
recommended, and to which Gov
Powers was pleased to appoint him.
He ever received his Commission.
But his appointment did not meet
the wishes of d small political Ring
which is disposed tC run" this place
and commerce; and with his com
mission in his pocket, Capt Pol vas
opposed in attempting to discharge
his duties from the very outset.
Threats were ever made that he
wonld rot be allowed to take his
seat on the board, and that when
Gen Ames came in power the matter
would be changed. We now learn
that this is the case. Capt Polls
name has not been submitted 10 Senate

A Short POstpCncmcnt of the Fifth Gift

AS manager Of the gift concerts given in aid Of

creates an important trust in behalf of the Public

of the drawing. The larger the fund to be dis
trbuted in gifts the greater will be the gift award.
ed to each lucky ticket holder and the more the
amount realized by the Library. To have . full
drawing is so manifestly to the interest of those
interested, that rather than have fractional
drawing the S0th inst, deem it due to the trust
confded TO me by the ticket holders and the Public
Library of Kentucky, that short postponement be
made to enable me to dispose of the unsold tickets
and have full drawing. Though the very large
amount now in bank would enable us to distribute
handsome gifts, yet We should feel disappointed in
this our last concert, should we be compelled to
make fractional drawing, however large.
We have received so very large a number of
letters from all parts Of the country from those
most largely interested, urging postponement
if all the tickets be not sold by the 3oth. that we
feel strengthened in our sense Of duty to the
ticket holders and to the Public Library, to make
| the postponement. Under the circumstances, we
have determined, in the interest of all parties to
postpone the concert and drawing to Saturday,
February 81 1875, at which time the drawing will
positively take place, and, as guarantee of good
faith towards ticket holders, we pledge ourselves
to refund to any ticket holder his money, upon
presentation OF his ticket, should the drawing fail
to come off at the day now fixed. The past we
feel assured, will be sufficient guarantee to all in
tod HAITI will he
with. The money paid for tickets is sacredly pre-
served against all contingencies until after the pay
ment of the gifts, after which the expenses are to
be reimbursed and the Public Library is to be paid
its profits.
