The Brookhaven leader. [volume] (Brookhaven, Miss.) 1883-1891, 1884-02-21


A joint resolution proposing to
amend the Constitution so as to
retain all moneys realized on liquor
licenses and the sale of delinquent
lands, in the counties where raised,
was votel down in the House last
Saturday on its second reading.
The Legislature seems to have taken
pretty much the same view of the
question that we did in our editorial
of last week. Our further opinion
on this subject is that the ConstItu
ton should be so amended as to ap
propriate all moneys realized on
liquor licenses to the judiciary eX
penses of the State, and let the
school fund he maintained by direct
taxation. Then, the generally accept
ed pro, 'osition being true that whis
ky is directly or indirectly the par
ent of most of our crimes, it would
naturally follow that those counties
which had most liquor would have
the heaviest court expenses, and
thus the distribution would be about
fairly equalized. If it were found
that more than enough to support
the judiciary was thus being raised,
il could be further provided that the
surplus be distributed pro rata
among the counties granting licenses,
for the support of their paupers-
another unfortunate class of which
the liquor traffic is popularity Con
ceded to be the prolific parent.
There would be something of "the
eternal fitness of things" about this
policy too, and we commend the sug-
gestion to the calm consideration of
our contemporaries and legislators who
are clamoring so loudly on the other
side.

Ihe Gxader-voIn sne No ,.

With this number TnE LEADER
enters upon the second year OF its
existence. As we turn the corner at
the first milestone, is = tic time To
take a glance both backward and
forward.
Deeply impressed at the outset of
Of our journalistic career that no
success were worth the name OF
could be enduring VIII ch was not
based on sound and righteous prin-
ciples, in the past we have cndeav
ored to uphold the right ami con-
denim the wrong whenever observed,
and this without fear or favor.
From the day we printed our first
Issue down to the present moment,
we have never had so poor an opinion
of the people of Lincoln and her sis
ter counties as to believe that they
would refuse To accord there support
to paper conducted Oh such a
policy, and in this we have not
found oursclf mistaken In every
essential particular, it affords US
pleasure AMI gratitic; ton to state
that the paper has succeeded. 1t is
now read weekly b, hundreds of
peol le in this county and scores in
Lawrence, Pike, Franklin, Copiah
and Kinds, ami its subscription list
is healthy an steadily increasing
The paper has made enemies, too,
but this was to be exl ected; in fact,
were it otherwise, we would fell that
we hal been in some way recreant to
the responsibility, OF our position.
But this class is not strong enough
are numerous enough To seriously
! take into account.
AS to tht future, the general policy
OF the The LEADER will suffer no
change, but It's columns will be sea-
ooned with more spice and salt and
pepper. IL will continue TO be
Democratic in politics, as matter
OF course; but it will not be hide
bound, preJudic isonlcd partisan
organ, incapable of recognizing any
wrong in lis own party, however
foul, or any right among those who
may chance to differ from it, however
apparent. Neither will it sanction
fraudulent party methods or condone
the worst of political crimes, simply
because they may happen to he com.

voice A mars pest friend is the
one that will tell him the truth, even
though it be unplea> ant; but tho sc
who are Indifferent, or only looking
after their own selfish purposes,
will falter his vanities. extol his
vices and commend his crimes. The
same rule will apply to a party or
people.
Any policy which has ter its Oh

local department will be newsy and
valuable, and every one interested in
local matters, will be sure of finding

Importance in it's columns.
In conclusion we wish to say that
to all those who have aided us, in
any manner, by their patronage, we
return our sincere thanks. To those
friends who, i'll addition to this, have
spoken good word for the paper, we
feel especially grateful. To all OF our
patrons we wish to say that We hope
to receive continuation Of their
support only by deserving it,

BY invitation of Capt. IIoskins,
who naturally felt concerned on &C
count of the wrong light in which he
had been placed by the Grand Jury's
report, Judges j. b. Chrlsman, G.. s.
Mcmillan, DR.. II. F. johnson and
the Editor 0f THE LEADER visited
the mills of Messrs. Hamilton d
Hoskins on the II. IL III. Railroad on
Monday last in company with the
Board Of Supervisors, and in simple
justice to the Lesses, as well as to
Messrs. G. &. Chrisman, John Dunn,
and others in their employ, it affords
us pleasure to confirm what has been
officially stated by the Board above.
Mr.. Dunn, who by the way had no
intimation of our coming, was placed
under oath by Judge Chrisman, and
underwent II thorough catechising,
as did the prisoners also collectively
and Individually, and thei t treatment
and condition we're found to he as
described. We agree with the Board
that there might he an Improvement
in the place where the prisoners are
quartered at night, but with this
exception, there can surely be no
just ground for complaint. When
prisoner becomes seriousl y sick, as
was testified by DR.. Wesley Martin,
the prisoners physician, who vas also
interrogated, he is at once removed
to different quarters and every need
ed attention given. There are other
things we might add, but lack of
space torbids.
We have couversed with but one
member of the Granl Jury on the
subject of their report, but we are
confident that IN bringing the charge
directly against the Penitentiary
Lcssees, they either inadvertently
used the wrong term, or else were
lab"ring under the miSapprehension
that the lessees are responsible for
the supervision and treatment Of
prisoners in the hands Of CT rtain sub
contractors of the county, which is
really not the case, We would like
to hear from foreman Irving Magce
or some other member, if this as
sumption is not correct.

On Change.

ST. PAUL, April 13s-The attendance on change
yesterday was small and transactions were
light At the call the only bids for wheat were
on No. 1 hard and both buyer and seller showed
no great desire to operate. The quotations for
other grades of wheat are elevator prices. All
quotations on the board are subject to elevator
charges of &c for wheat and 1c for coarse grain
except corn, there being no oorn in the elevators
which refuse to take it. Corn is in demand and
scarce. Oats were quiet Barley in demand and
firm Ground feed was quiet car sold at $40
and at $3.50, represent the market. Baed
hay was firm; car timothy sold at $40 and car
at $1,000. Seeds were dull; 40 bushels of clover
sold at 25c under quotations. Eggs were dull.
Butter inactive. There are two causes for the
present inactivity in the grain market, the one
affecting speculative trading and the other cash
transactions the first is the unsettled and nery-
GUS state of the Chicago market, and the second
the fact that there is scarcely any grain received
on sale, the farmers being too busy to ship.

THE FLOWER-POT.
child will lind q little grain.

Sometimes child will find little grain,
And, charmed with its live colors run in haste
To plant it in pot of porcelain,
With dragons blue and flowers fantastic chased.
He goes. The root strikes snakeliEle either side,
Comes up from earth little tree straightway !:
Daily its fibrous feet plunge further wide,
Until the vessel shivers, on day.
The child returns. He sees, all-marvelling,
The sword-like plant wave DER the broken pot
He fam would tear it up the strong stems cling !;
He strives; his fingers bleed; he moves it not.
Thus love has budded in my wondering heart.
Thought to sow some spring flower; but see
An aloe, whose strone roots have wrenched apart
The pot of porcelain painted wondrously.
