Taxing Emigration Agents.

AUGUSTA, Jan. u,
Special 20 the N. o. Times,
A special from Madison says Al the In
stance Of Mayor Thomson, two omigrani
-Windey and lluges--were arrested
to-day, charged with encouraging emigration
from this State 10 Mississippi.
The law defines that cmigrant agents shall
pay tax Of $500 for carrying on such bust
ness These cnts were subjected TO trn
and find in The aggregate SlS8 Evidence
sho we'd that these agents had made quite M
inrond into the working class Of the com
munity causing scores of violations Of con
tracts between farmers and their laborers.
Our Legislature might do the State SERVED
by enacling law similar to the one in opcr
alton In Georgia. Indeed, the Georgia law
might be improved upon by inserting n clause
providing for the recovery of heavy damages
from any citizen of the State who might b,
convicted of the o6cnsc of seooying n tenant
or luborer from the premises of any land
holder, after contract had been signed be-
tween the parties .-Chickasnw Messenger.
The bill introduced by Senator Jack
son, which has been so consciously com,
mented upon by some of our content
poraries, is patterned after the Georgia
law above mentioned.

Commissary for Walden Bene6ciarie
UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI,

OHFoRD, january ., looO.
To the Honorable Senate and House of Repre-
sentatives the State of Mississippi:
The undersigned students of the University
of Mississippi beg leave to state to the Hon
orabe Legislature as follows, tO-wit: That we
have observed with qualification the success Of
the Walden beneficiary system. That q large
number Of deserving young men have been
thus enabled at very small cost to procure
an education at this University, we recon-
mend that the plan be continued, but we re-
specttully petition the Legislature that State
aid be afforded to enable DR.. Walden to carry
out his noble plans, and that the Senate bill
No. become a law, and that the mess cottages
therein provided for be built at the University
for the accommodation of such poor Mississip-
| ri boys as DR.. Walden may see proper to edu-
date at the University, because by building
such mess cottages these benefciaries could
b. well and comfortably provided for and
their cooking would be away from the other
students and sufficient room would thus be
made for all Without this the dormitories
and present University buildings are too
small to accommodate the great and increas-
ing number ofstudents, and the cooking in
these costly buildings under the present sys.
tenn may prove injurious to the buildings and
endanger their safety by fire. and the cooking
may prove disagreeable to other dodgers in
the same building who are not Walden bene-
| icaries. BY building the houses and mess
| cottages provided for on the mess cottage plan
now before the Legislature, all objections to
| the Walden mess system MS now carried on
would be removed, and the plan would be a
great and lasting success and its usefulness
enlarged and many more worthy boys would
thus be enabled to obtain and enjoy the price.
less benefits of a University education.
More buildings, too, are absolutely neces-
sary at this University not only for comfort
and convenience but for sanitary purposes
In conclusion, petitioners beg leave to indorst
the Walden Mess System even as now prac.
ticsd, but earnestly to recommend the passage
of the law to erect the separate mess and cook
cottages as an improvement upon said plan
and endorse the plan as proposed in the Senate
bill

Extract from Chancellor's Report to Trus-

To the Honorable Board of Trustees
A number of those who occupy rooms in the
dormitories have adopted the MESS System
of living.
The messing system will, doubtless, continue
to be a necessity for many of the young men
who will resort to the University, and it may
be advisable to put up suitable buildings near
the dormitories for the use of messes.
