The fact, however, that the sundry civil

thought likely to form part of it, simpli-
ties the work of the Senate committee.

termined by the Legislature, AID tina
| the provisions Of this act shall not b
enforced against the railroads of tn
State before the first day of May, A. q

Over issue of School Warrants.

The Superintendent of Education of
/ Kinds county in the last few years has
issued about $4,000 more of school war
rants that the law allows. bill is now be-
| fore the Legislature to authorize the county
to fund these warrants. looking to their
payment. There is considerable opposi-
! ton to this scheme, and the matter is at
| tracing more attention than the PROPOSE
| ton to abolish the charter of jackson from
the fact that the whole county is interested
| in it. No doubt the Legislature will thor
oughly investigate the subject before taking
final action.-Vicksburg Post.
1t is possible that more school war
rants have been issued than the law al
lows, but that they were issued fraudu-
lently, as the above might imply, we do
not for a moment believe. The school
law admits of several constructions. 1t
is made the duty of the board of super
visors, in conjunction with the Superin-
tendent, to locate and determine the
number of schools, and by some means
too many have been organized, and for
six or seven years the school fund has
been gradually falling behind. When
we read the statement in the Raymond
Gazette of the large school debt, We re-
marked that explanations were in order.
They are being made, and so far as we
can understand them, the County
Superintendent is not in fault, except so
far as he may have failed to exert an

eating q greater number of schools than
could be supported BY the tax provided.

The Bankruptcy Bill.

The trade centers of the country and
commercial classes in general are agita-
ting the enactment by Congress of an
other Bankrupt Law. The indications
for the passage of such law are said to
be favorable, but we think it by no means
certain from all we have heard of the
temper of the legal men in Congress that
any of the bills on the subject will go

speedy passage of any of the pending

repeal the law prohibiting the sale OF
liquors within five miles of the Univer-

the bill, and we made the statement on

Baker made no reference whatever to the
attitude of the trustees on the question,
but he offered the bill at the earnest re-
quest of many of the Leading business

fact, diminish the consumption of ardent

The CLARION calls our attention to the
fact, that the Railroad Bill was amended
before its passage by the House, so as to
REQUIRE the Commissioners to take the oath

gives a bond for ten times that amount

The bond would be trifing if the
Commissioners handled as much money
as does the sheriff of Warren county.
The bond is simply protection against
collision. There were only two amend
ments to the substitute bill as it passed
he House-one requiring the oath and
bond, and the other limiting the expense
of each Commissioner to $4,000 per
annum.
We are unable to find anything
in the bill that repeats or affects in any
way exemption to which existing rail-
roads may be entitled under their char

Principle VS.. Detail.

The friends of railroad supervision
should not forget the principle underly-
ing railway legislation and overlook the
principle in too much criticism as to the
details of their respective measures. In
most of the States where there is any
railway legislation at all, the Commits
sion system is popular. Only one State
has provided for q State Engineer"
The Legislature of Texas adopted an
act on April 10th, 1888, providingfor the
appointment of a State Engineer whose
powers are large. The genius of our in

power The division of power is always
desirable in the administration of govern
ment where matters of business are left
