Unconstitutional.


Jackson Comet, e'n
1t appears that there is a provi.
sion in the constitution of the Mis-
sissippi Press association inhlbltlng
the change of time OF its annual
meeting. We did not know this
when we suggested that it would
be about as easy for US TO change
tile time of our con, entlon as for
the State convention to be changed.
There seems to be nothing lett tor
the State executive committee but
to change their day. or 10 try the
novel experiment OF holding II State
convention without the editors.
We notice, however, that Major
Bark sdale has asked the consent OF
his associate committeeman 10

The Eastern Observer (Meridian)
is dreadfully " wrought with the
reptiler because the Legislature
paid the daily CLARION and the
daily Comet, each 81 per mouth,
including copy of both for each
member. 1t is usual to furnish pa
pers published daily, during the
session, and it is not only usual,
but useful. The Observer calls
loudly for the yeas and nays upon
the vote apprupriating money to
pay' these papers. We hope the
Observer will get over it; at all
events the Clarion and Cdmet have
both got the money, and invested
1t in government bonds, and the
legislature has quit aud gone home.
