In the District Of Columbia the en-

The Cherokee Nation pays the high

month to male and female teachers.
The District of Columbia comes next

INTERNAL REyESUE,-The report O.
;Ae Commissioner of Internal Revenue
i1st published, contains matter Of grea
deal Of interest to large class of readers
The receipts for the year ending Jun,
30. were Sll0,545, 1929 This shows .
considerable increase over the reyenu,
Of last year, which only amounted t,
SIG, ,S46.98 The result is due to th
advanced rates of duties levied by tn
act of March 3, 1875. The receipts Q
the current fiscal year are estimated a
SIC. .O00,0 900. Of the amount received
S9,lH,004.4l was from the tax on fel
mented liquors and $37. .303, ,46l from tn
tobacco tax. The rest OF the interns
revenue is mainly from the tax on spirit
Gus liquors. Naturally enough, grea
part of the report is taken up with d.
scription of the whiskey frauds and
discussion Of methods to be adopted I
prevent their recurrence. The Commii
sioner seems to have great confidenc
IN an intricate system of checks an
stamps; but nothing of the kind will kee
rogues from stealing, The true remed
IS to get honest men into office. Varior
suggestions are made in regard to chang
N the Internal revenue office, and n
increase in the number of agents is aske
for, which the people will not be vel
well inclined to listen to.

Miscellaneous Mention.

The display of WOODEN and cotton goods
from Mississippi Mills, at WeSson, exhibited
by Il. G. Latting, ESQ.,, was the substantial
feature of the exhibition in the main build
ing. The display was awarded the Centen-
NAL premium OF 800 90. The entire lot
was purchased by Messrs Robinson x Stew
ems, for $3.50. An assortment. equal in
every respect, will be on exhibition at the
Centennial from the Mississippi Mills.
In the Needlework Department. although
not as many entries as at some previous
Fairs, the general verdict was that the work
was superior to any heretofore on exhibition.
In the Fine Arts Departments Mr. DEMO-
representing the house of W Ii. Woodruff
Nicksburg. made an extensive and highly
creditable display. Some of our home anna
teurs also had some fine specimens OF pain
ings and drawings on exhibition.
Mr.. Seutter had his usual display of fine
work in the photograph line. He had no
competitions, for it seems to he well under
stood that he cannot be eXeelled.
Messrs. Lemly Il Son had superb dis
play OF some of the choice and fancy arti-
ceS from their extensive stock.

The machinery department was crowded,
but exhibitors, owing to the hard times,
made but few sales. The Accommodations
tor exhibitors in this department are not as
perfect as they should be. The shed should
be enlarged, hoored and enclosed.
The exhibition oc stock was shabby, and

dollars in this department, and have had
very little to show for it. n regulation
should be adopted prob ibiLing non-res ideut
traders who travel from Fair to Fair, from
exhibiting and carving off the money that
should be applied for the encouragement OF
stOck-raisng in this State.
The racing department., under the man
agement of the jackson Jockey Club. was
all that could be desired. The bad weather,
and the fact that portion of the track was
newly made, were obstacles to entire sue
cess; but the Club gave entire satisfaction
to competitors for the purses, and has the
thanks of the Fair Association for its zeal
Gus and faithful cooperation.
The display OF poultry was crcdi,able,
but entries were made too late in the week.
The Association should adopt rule, and
rigidIy adhere 10 it, that entries in every
department should close On the afternoon OF
the second day.
The untavOrabie weather operated seri-
Ously against the complete success of tn c

A better feeling now exists in the
State than has been exhibited since re-
construction. The taxpayers feel that
their interests will hereafter be protected,
and the freedmen are beginning to recog-
nize the fact that their hest hopes for
happiness, peace and prosperity lie in
maintaining a course that will compel
their recognition as friends and allies by
the white race.
All is peace within our borders, and bu-
siness of all kinds has revived wonderful
~ since the election.
Lands are rapidly approaching in
value, and YOU cannot find a proprietor
who does not consider his real estate worth
at least twenty-five per cent more than it
was few days ago.
Verify new era has dawned upon
Mississippi, and her strides toward agri-
cultural, manufacturing, educational and
mercantile greatness in the near future,
will be unprecedented in the history of

Res utiOms OF Respect.

hereaS it has pleased Almighty God
Who Is the giver of life and the director of
all things, to take from our midst in the
prime aud youth OF his life otlr beloved
friend, companion and associate, DR.. HEK-
BERT l.. PETRIE; and whereas the same all
powerful God, in His inscrutable wisdom
has called to his last home our esteemed
and cherished friend and com pdniou JOHN
III. FREESE. both OF whom were of rs: ana
whereas, We, the young men of Edwards
and the members Of the families to which
our deceased friends respectively belonged
are and have greet reason to be deeply
grteNcd and distressed ut these provdential
ViSitatiOns,
Therefore be it Resolved by Us theyouno
men of Edwards, That in the death of Dr.
HERBERT PETRIE. we feel and realize an ir-
reparable loss both to ourselves and the
community, of a warm hearted. honorable.
true and useful friend and citZen-oue of
whom mrch can be said in praise and noth-
ing derOgatOry, Il thorough gentleman. Il
true christian and pure man.
Resolved further, That in the death of
our associate and companion, JOHN IL.
FREESE, we are deprived of one of the most
respected and worthy of our number: that
a blank is left that cannot be filled; friend
has departed whose place must ever remain
unOccupied in our affections; that he was
an upright and irreproachable man aud cit
iZen, ever true and constant TO those who
possessed his friendship, of whom there
were many, and an humble follower Of the
meek and lowly Jesus.
Resolved, That we are sorely stricken in
these visitations, and while bowling IN hum
Bile submission to the DEGREES Of the great
God of the universe, we feel deeply grieved
and distressed, and that we tender our
heartfelt sympathies 20 the membe of the
families to which our deceased friends re-
spectively belonged, III this tho time OF
their bereavement.
Resolved, That these resolutions be pub
lished in the Edwards Courier and Jackson
CLARION, and that copies thereof be fur
nished To the mem bers of the two respec-
tive families.
