Ten thousands dollars is the sum
which the Arcadian says is required To
meet the annual dress requirements of
fashionable woman. Happy is the
man ii not tied 10 a fashionable wo-
man, and who is not blessed "a with a
brace or two of fashionable daughters.
That The Arcadian's estimate NAV not
be regarded as an cxaggeration, it is
only necessary TO refer TO tho demand of
Mrs. Walker, The wife of the Vinegar
Bitters man, for four hundred dollars
per week as alimony during the pen
dency of the divorce suitsbrought by
her husband for an absolute divorce.
She admitted having received from her
husband fifty dollars per week for pin
money; that be paid household OK
penses, aud for her wearing apparel;
also providing horses, carriages and a
eoachman for her use. In answer to
her demand it was shown by the hus-
band that she, at times, appeared with
ton thousand dollars worth of iewelry
on her person, and requiring as many
AS thirteen Or fourteen dresses Il week
at a cost of four to five hundred dol
lars. This, of course, is an extreme
case, but it serves to show TO what ex-
tent the mania for dress is carried by
some women, and that the only restrain
ing influence with many is the fact that
their husbands orfatbers are unable 10
crafty the senscless passion for per-
sonal display. IL is not at all surpris-
ing, remarks the Philadelphia Chroni-
Gle, that young men who would like
stomarry, and whose Income would
warrant such a step if they were but
assured that economy would rule the
household, shrink back alarmed at the
thought that possibly the woman with
whom they propose TO link their for
ianes for life, might be Of this extrav-
,.gant class. The girl who desires to
marry will do melto think of this, for
We know q score Of young men who
have been driven to hacheloriom BY
just such considerations as we have
described.

From the Meridian Mercury.
That which am old Roman writer
said OF a historian, that .she should
never dare to speak falsely, nol
fear to speak what is ttrue,n il
equally applicable to the editor
of a newspaper, who is the histo
rian of passing events. Indeed he
is much more than this; he is the
guardian of public liberty-the
censor of public morals, the pro
tector OF innocence, and the friend
of justice anu worth, and public
instructor, hence, ahe should never
dare to speak falsely, nor fear to
speak what is true The press
has suffered II marked declension
in the matter of independence since
the war, that has greatly detracted
from its influence with the masses,
and diminished its power of control
over public men. Republican news
papers conceive it to be their-Iaigh-
est duty to beiate Democrats and
praise and whitewash their own
party leaders, while Democratic
newspapers rarely touch OH the er-
rors of their own leaders, or expose
the trickery of aspirants for office.
This is justified OH the plea that
sit is wrong and naughty to tell
tales out of school," but this plea
is unsound ut the core. Even
churches are apt to act on this false
and delusiye plea, and to cover mp
the sins of its members, to the
damage of real religion.
Having worn the editorial llar-
ness on our back from early man
hood, it is but natural we should
feel a lively interest i'll preserving
the usefulness and Independence of
the press, and in preventing it from
sinking into a mere caudal append
age OF scllenling and inscriptions
politicians and greed gripping cor
porations, to be wagged at their
pleasure, or into the pui1er of fast
girls and ambitious men with no
brains in their heads. The dignity /
of the press is part of its useful
ness-while its independence is its |
iirmest hold OIL the people. Why |
should respectable newspaper /
devote entire columns to the ARR
walls and departures of all the moo
dies in the town where its inSides
are put and stitched up! Why
shonld it announce the birth of all
the babies and capor and cavort
over a few sheets of wedding cake,
sent as bride, to the editorg No
decent paper Announces the recep-
ton of few slices of wedding
cake from the slIotldyites, who
could not dream of inviting the
editor, or chronicles the present as
al cheap hat from a merchant, who
wants puff. These things are
snean and uDdignified. They be-
little newspapers and degrade ed
itors. The trouble is, many news
papers, with patent outsiders, do
not pretend to have editors, there
are 10 brains in the concern, and
no sense Of feeling or the dignity,
independence and usefulness of the
press. Formerly, a newspapereould
no more get along without an ed
Itor, than man could without
head-now, Il puffer and local item
lzer, and a patent outside, 'sfill the
bill" We appeal to our brethren
of Mississippi to keep up the time
bonored fame of the press of our
State, and even to raise it to the
higher path for manly dignity,
dauntless independence and knight
~ courtesy.

A USELESS MILITIA LAW.

Congress Asked 10 Amend the Act OF
17o2 80 That 1: VIII Ess Operative.
WASHINGTON. D. C., Dec. s-The National
Guard Association Of tho United States. By
President Wingate and Corresponding Secretary
Wetmorc, has addressed to Congress Il memorial
asking for the amendment of the Militia laws.
The association asserts that tho existing law,
enacted IN 11922 has for many years been in
operative, and that Its enforcement TO-DAY would
create militia force of 100000 men. In place
Of Federal o1ilitu provided by this law, militia
organizations have arisen under State laws, but
these organizations are not, the association says,
recognized by Federni laws. The annual appro-
preparation Of 500 0U1 provided By enactment in
1905 is. inadequate for the equipment
of the existing volunteer forces, and
the use OF the appropriation is restricted to
arms and equipment, nud the militia can pro-
cure camp cquipa9e, clothing, etc. Ouly by
Stute appropriations. The association is OPP
posed TO any change in the relative authority
now exercised by Federal and State Govern
ments over the militia. to any interference with
the existing military organizations Of the
States, aud to the creation OF new force, but
it urges the amendment of the law In four par
ticulars. 1t aske, first, that enrolled militia
shall be divided into two cnSses, the active and
the innctive; second, that tho volunteer militia
rs organizations OF the respective States be
recognized US tho active uilttin. third, that the
to 81 0D, go; fourth. that provision be made for
the use OF the appropriation In furnishing
clothing and camp eautpaEe, as well us arms
aud equipments, Or, when desired by any Stnte,
for its use 10 paying militia for duty, annual
camps, anu instruction.
