The tax recently imposed upol
drummers by an act of the the hon
orahle 90 legislalureof Mississippi i
u matter of considerable interest I,
wholesale houses, travelling men, a
well as drummers themselves, Tit
law requires every drummer selling
by sample or otherwise to pay s.,
state privileges and gives corporat'
towns the authority to collect one
half this amount or Sl2 50 each, eN
cept whisky drummers, who are t
pay $3.50 state privilege and 50 cents
to corporate towns.
This is an acknowledgment of the
failure of our State government, The
state is in debt, and, rather than taA
the people direct to pay it, our wist
heads make this dodge to avoid crit
cism of the administration. 1t is 1
stroke at free trade and competition
and ought and will bring that body II
censure by all intelligent people
But tothe point. The law is passed
and we must stand it until a more
intelligent assembly is elected.
What drummers and business mel
want to know now is, what towns
want another nail in their collins by
imposing the so cents, which they
have IA right to do. By speaking GU
ut once u great number of wholesale
firms can determine whether it viii
pay them to compete for trade in the
great state of Mississippi or not. Al
though there las been no official ac
ton, from Il talk with several mem
bers Of the board, We feel authorized
III saying that Grenada will be sole
against it, 1t is to be hoped that al
enterprising towns will take action
in this matter early and repudiat'
The stigma now resting upon them

people to have prohibition here, and
let property ~deprcciate, rents decline
aud business stagnate. Read the
following from Atlanta, Ga, and the
same account may be gathered from
other prohibition towns even in the
State Of Mississippi. So that if our
people were a unit in favor of prohi-
bition, the depressing effects that
must follow, would be severely and
disastriously felt:
1t is now too plain that Atlanta is
suffering such stagnation as was new
er felt here before. Real estate, ac-
cording to me of the heaviest dealers
in the city, has fallen off As per cent.
since the prohibition election. One
agent asserts that for those three
months he has not had q single appli-
cation from abroad, Messrs, Paul
Jones, Louis Fholstein, Charles Cur
rier and VIM. Heath, who are rated
at 81 100000, are now in Dallas, Tex,
for the purpose of locating there. 9th
ers, representing 81 ,00O, 600 more, are
awaiting their report to follow. The
city, in its estimate for the coming
year, shows a falling off of 500, 900.
This decrease involves the crippling
of the public schools and the cutting
off of supplies generally, Not only
this, but to raise the money estima-
ted the assessments will be largely
increased, thus, in effect, double tax
ing the people, If the vote ON prohi-
bition had to be taken tomorrow a
great reversion of opinion would be
known"

Amounts OF revenue derived from
liquor licenses i'll Chicago under the
new law has increased from $200,000
toS1 500,0 600 a year, and the number
of saloons has decreased from 1900
TO 5000. The license charge is only
5000, which is much less in proper
ton to the amount of goods sold
and the profits upon them than the
local tax paid by retail merchants
who do the same amount of trade in
other lines. The license is, there
fore, lot a hardship, aud those who
pay it are protected from a eompeti-
ton that would deduct mere from
their profits than the tax does. The
diminution in the number of drink
ing places is a distinct gain to the
community in three ways. Those
that are closed are usually CT the
longest type, the temptations to drink
are diminished, and the police SUI
pervision of the traffic is made easier
by a reduction in the number,
amounting to nearly one half, and by
the interest of those who pay high
license in aiding in the suppression
of unlicensed sale. Both in the mat
ter of revenue and of regulation high
license is vindicating its wisdom,

to ascertain who was or was not in
favor OF holding d Democratic con-
Nention to nominate candidates for

nays" snow that the latter, or those
opposed TO a Democratic convention,
out-number the former nearly four to
one. This majority, who are staunch
Democrats, claim that politics are
not TO be considered in municipal
