The Kettle Story Recalled.

The papers Of this district have
been very severe in referring to the
contest Col. Dcason is making.
They are, as we knew they would
be, unmcrciful in their remarks.
We cannot copy all that is said of
our old friend, because we consider
some of the notices unjustly harsh,
but Il paragraph from the Vicks-
burg Commercial is too rich to
omit. Speaking Of Col. Dcason's
allegations in his notice to Col.
Hooker, tie Commercial says:
"Thcse contradictory allegations re-
mind us of the pleadings in the old
kettle case. The fellow who borrowed
the kettle, when sned for damages by
breakage. answered, first. that the kct.
tie was cracked when he borrowed 1t;
second, that it was sound when he re-
turned it. and third, that he never had
the blasted old kettle anyhow

He is a splendid specimen of vigor-

exceedingly eloquent; indeed, his

A COmpromis UnavoIdabIc.

Under this heading the Pulaski
Citizen in its last issue has these re
marks:
If Chancellor Merritt's reasoning is
correct he should have decided other
wise. He certainly gave more reasons
for a contrary decision. We cannot
understand how his deductions could
have added up as he made them do in
the end. Neither do we see the point
in his remarks concerning Judge Will
liams, nor the necessity for defending
him. If he would not have granted the
fat, why ought Judge Williams TO
have done so? The courts decide up
on the constitutionality of statute,
construe and apply it, but we utterly
fail to comprehend how the courts can
decide whether law is repealable or
not. There is no authority even for a
dictum upon question outside Of
jurisdiction. 1t is a good decision.
however, in that it shows there are
plausible reasons on both sides and
thus demonstrates the great necessity
for compromise between the factions.
There is another feature to this mat
ter: Even if the Supreme Court does
direct the contamination of this act,
it can never be carried out effectually
as it should be, because it will be op-
posed always and every obstacle cast
in the way of its execution. 1t
is better for us TO meet all
these demands now in a compromise of
factions upon some middle ground. 1t
has to be done sooner or later perhaps,
and it is better sooner than later. If
we could Danish the hot-heads from
both sides and let reason and sense
rule in the deliberations, the matter
can be settled in the party and accept
ably to all. Why not2 The Supreme
Court may make a very strong deliv-
erance and thus settle it; but suppose
its decision is as double faced as Judge
Merritt's, the hue and cry will be kept
up, and may possibly result in bring
ing the court itself into disrepute By
assailing the stability of its utter.
ances. Lets avoid it all by com.
promise that will satisfy all and save
the party. Why not have a conference
Of leaders looking to this end? Can
not John Childress and Dave Wallac,
inaugurate a plan to bring about
conference that will result in a com
promise?

Mother and Daughier,

Fifteen years ago Emma Baptiste
left her six-year- old child in Toronto
in the care Of the Papin family, aud
went to st. Louis to live. She soon
began to lead a fast life, and finally
went to live in house of ill-fame on
Christy avenue. She soon became the
proprietress, and accumulated money
in the disreputable business. Recent
ly she determined to send for her
daughter who had grown to be hand
some young lady. Mrs. Baptiste went
to the station to meet her daughter in
her own splendid carriage, intending
to take her to a respectable house, ele-
gantly furnished, which she had OK
pressly hired for the occasion. By
some accident she did not see her
daughter, who, upon finding no one
was waiting to welcome her, had hired
hack driver to take her to her
mothers address. The hack driver
was exceedingly surprised to be told
to go to the notorious house Of Emma
Baptiste's by such a lady-like person,
and told her so. The daughter was
thunderstruek upon learning of the
character of the house and its propri-
etress, and at once told the driver to
take her to police headquarters.
While waiting there her mother called
in carriage, and, upon seeing her,
clasped the girl in her arms and kissed
her repeatedly. II have a mothers
love for you, said the woman, "and
did not intend that you should ever
know the life l was following. Your
purity is my pride The daughter
refused to accompany her mother to
the respectable house hired by her,
and, amid the mothers tears, she left
for her home in Toronto.
