MISSISSIPPI NEWS.

The Jewish temple at Jackson will be
dedicated on the twenty-fifth.
The Grenada Sentinel man is clamOr-
ing for an iceberg as a summer COM
psniOD,
Chic kens about KosciuskO have chOl-
era. That place can offer no induce
ments for a camp-meeting this summer.
The Jackson Pilot is urging the ''color
line" ItwOuld delude ignorant negroes
into policy suicidal to their best inter-
ests and antagonistic to prosperity.
Handsboro Democrat: Don't forget,
white men, that old certificates of reg
istratiOn are Valueless. All have to
register this year. Remember this, and
register, or you cannot vote.
The Grenada Sentinel says that a
young cOlOred lady in Mississippi wears
shoes seventeen inches long, and there
is so much of her on the ground that she
never gets the cold out Of her.
Jackson Pilot: Fish is said to be good
brain diet, but that is no reason why the
editor of the Index, at Columbus, can
make Horace Greeley-Malstead-W Wat
terson out of himself by feeding three
times day on Tombigbee cat.
The Handsbero Democrat advocates
the "color line," and says: AS public
policy it is the right one, because it seeks
to encourage the citizens Of the State to
a life Of morality and industry. This it
does by carefully excluding corruption,
Incidence and ignorance, their insepara-
bic companion, from the councils of the
country.
Sardis Star: I've think that it de-
serves the attention OF our city fathers,
that the corporate limits Of the town of
Sardis is made hog range. II man
wants to raise hogs in town, we think
he ought to enclose them, and not let
them run among his neighbors. A little
ordinance to this extent would be advisa-
bic, We think.
Kosciusko Star: The experience of
our planters in wheat growing this sea-
son has been very satisfactory, so far as
we have been able to learn. Those who
soWed early have made fine crops, while
the wheat sOWn later did not yield so
well. Prepare your land well and SOW
in September, and our word for it, nine
times out of ten you will make good
crop.
Sardis Star: We are taught in the good
book, that among the spirits OF the
damned in hell, there is great rejoicing
over the complete surrender OF q soul to
sin. If this be true, then what an awful
howl of devilish hallelujahs nut have
been uttered recently over the news in
this country, when the angel OF dark
ness learned of the surrender of another
scalawag to Radicalism.
Captain B. F. Jones, Of the Winona
Advance is a candidate for the legisIa-
ture from Montgomery county, and the
Kosciusko Star declares that he sis a
gentleman Of good sense, and will make
an active working representative. A
good editor can not make q good repre-
sentative, and one of good sense would
not be too ambitious of the position.
Captain Jones is a good editor.
In speaking of the "color line" the
Ssrdis Star says: "The whites never de-
sired it, do not desire it now, and all
color lines now among the white peo-
pie are simply holding on to the other
end of the rope because it is the only
end left, and they are yet willing to
meet the blacks on common ground,
and peaceably and harmoniously to op-
crate with them for the common good
upon the most liberal principles to the
blacks. VIII they do it, or will they
persist in drawing the color line?' We
shall see."
