A JOINT stock company has been
organized in Meridian for the publica-
ton of a morning paper, with Associated

and Tribune, together with outside sub
scriptions to the cmount of several

Elock. Capt w. II. HARDY, Hon. J
p. WALKER and Other leading citizens
are the movers in this enterprise, and
success is therefore inevitable. The

all concerned to appraise the ma teria
etc, of the two offices above named, and

purpose.

Interesting Letter From Ex-Presi-

He Disposes of Another SANDER Against
Him,
AND BEARS TESTIMONY To THE GOOD OF
FREEMAsoNRY.
BEAuvorR, Mss. Dec. 10th. 1885.

BEAUvoTR, Miss, Dec. 10th, 1885.
Col. J. l.. PowER,-DEAR SIR: | have
received, with others of similar character,
the enclosed sheet, having paragraph
underlined to secure my attention, and /
send it to you to attract your notice.
Under the head of Summary" is con-
centrated distillation of malice and men
dacity The main attack seems to be
against he fraternity OF Free and Accepted
Masons, and, as many slanderers have
heretofore done, the writer avaiIs himself
OF sectional prejudice existing against
me to point his attack against Free
A.asonry, and, in less than the three under
scored lines, perpetrates at leaet as many
falsehoods.
lst |, Jefferson Davis, am not and
never have been Free and Accepted
Mason.
ID. As citizen of the Sovereign State
OF Mississippi, obeyed her commands and
as sovereigns cannot 'rebel, neither lee
or followed Rebellion, great or small.
Sd. As had no Masonic standing, tht
assertion that it was not tainted by th'
imputed act OF mine, rests, not upon fact
but upon misrepresentation.
| 4th. Masonry could not have had 'mucl
to do with securing my pardon" as 1 hav
never been pardoned, nor applied for
pardon, or appealed to Masonry 10 seeur
to me the benefit of the writ of habea
corpus, that / might have the Constitu
tional right OF every American citizen, Il
be confronted with my accusers.
/ To exclude a possible inference, vii
add that my father was Mason, and | wa
reared to regard the fraternity wit
respect, and have never felt any disapprova
of ii other than that which pertains /
every secret society. Viewing Freemasonr
from distance, and judging the tree b
its fruits, have believed it to be in itSel
good.

$500, 900.
The clarion. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1883-1888, 1885-12-23

We find that in all these pages, the
Printer added six lines to the page more
than was required by the Code of 1871,
Sec. 100, or an average of l53 ems to the
page-the aggregate being 355,670 ems, or
34l pages, which at 40 per page,
amounts to $l534.50.
An equitable adjustment, therefore,
would make the account stand thus

ter ......... ......... ....... 4e9.00
We are informed, however, by the State
Printer, that he declines to take advantage
of the excess in his favor. He claims that
he was not aware that it was his privilege
to print the Acts of 1876, 1877, 1873 and
1850 with only ~ lines to the page, and
that had he known such was the law, he
would have added the additional lines SO
as to make the Acts uniform in size with
ALL preceding volumes The Chapter on
Printing in the Code of 1880 appears to be
an almost literal copy of the Chapter
in the Code of 1857, and yet the acts oil
1858 and all subsequent sessions to 1871
do not contain the number OF lines to the
page, or words to the line, required
10y the Code of 1857. In the Code OF 1871 the
number OF lines was reduced from 90 &c
II per page, but we find that the Printer o.
the Acts of 1871, 1872, 1878, 1874, and 1875
did not take advantage OF this reduction
but observed the uniform size of preceding
volumes.
The Act making reduction of &c pei
cent in the public printing took effec
from the date of its passage, March Is
1884, Iage 80, 1884 but it Is due to tn,
State Printer to say that he made it apply
to all work done IRON the beginning o
the session of the Legislature-the ag-
gregate OF the reduction for the Legisla-
| tive period being $4,000.

A Good Mans Record

We drop tear ms we record the de-
mise Of poor Billy Muckrow. His genial
presence and hearty laugh added new
grace to the most exclusive saloons of
the town. We say it without fear Of
contradiction-Billy was as square as Il
Chessboard. lie was no chump. lie
never killed man without cause; he
never forgot to settle his score on the
slate. lie never refused to 20 out on Il
hunt for hoss thieves, nor to ante up his
little pile when he bucked the tiger and
lost. And he was a rustler when out
with the boys. But his browning virtue
was that just before his death he paid us
n three-year subscription In advance for
the Howler, and we assure his widow
that the paper will be delivered to her
on time every week. Stranger, 90 thou
and do likewise. - Arizona IIowler.
