man can DC punished criminally
for a failure to work the road lie
can be 50 banded for a failure to
pay his poll tax. The Governor
doubtless had IN eye to the clause
in tue constitution which says,
There shall be no Imprisonment
for debt but we can't e how he
can get around it by thus consider,
ing il in the light Of police regula
ton, a penalty for being a citizen
OF our State or condition preced-
to beinG a Stree american citizen"
within our State borders. Ii poll
taxes can be collected by corporal
punishment we see no reason why
other taxes could not be collected
iu the same way, or any other debt
to County or State. The Governor
may be correct in his view, hOwev.

GOV. LoWRY's MESSAGE.

Inc message OF LONf.
y to the State Legislature is entirel.
+ too lengthy for reproduction in th
DEMOCRAT-STAR; and our reader
will doubtless be about as wei
T. pleased by the mention of the Sa
I lient points therein contained.
p The Governor reports the STATE
: in debt, of course. But still hi!
; further report of the princcly for
tunes appropriated aud lavishly
disburSed in the redemption Of
swamp lands, support OF high
schools, ETC., would hardly justify
the belief by a casual observer that
the State is not immensely rich.
The Governor finds some very
weak points in our
REVENUE LAW,
which exists, in the first place, in a
want of uniformity in the assessed
value of land ia some counties, as
compared with others, and insists
that the Legislature devise
some means, if O. possible, to
cure this evil. He also calls
their attention to the large
delinquency in the payments of the
poll taxes OF the State, which lac
estimates at 1924 in number. To
cure this evil be suggests that the
Legislature pass an act to make
such delinquency a misdemeanOr,
punishable as a failure to do road
duty. 7a
He suggests some changes in the
JUDICIARY
of the counties wherein misdemean-
Ors are tried in the circuit courts
at great expense, which ought to
be disposed of by justices of the
peace, and recommends legislation
to that end. -s. H.H4f
In speaking of the .ul DO 37'
CHICKAsAw SCHOOL FUND,
he suggests that the Legislature
reduce the interest thereon or pay !
the principal and invest the pro-
cPeds in securities for the benefit
of those entitled thereto.

CURRENT COMMENT.

Los Angeles complains that it is overrun with tramps. They can hard expect tramp to winter in a cold climate.
 The most talked of man in the world to-day Is Louis Pdsteur, the French chemist. He is Co years old and poor. but should his hydrophobia cure prove success, he deserves to be as rich as he will be famous.
 w. w. Corcoran, of Washington, celebrated hi, S7th birthday a few days since, and the old gentleman walks around the city hale and hearty. He has given away over 1000, 900 for phIlanthropic purposes.
 The San Francisco Call is authority for the statement that the Chinamen in California send SIS, 900, 900 annu- ally to China. John wont adopt American social customs. but he gets Mexican mans money alice saiuee.
 There is an editor over in New Mexico that is also a preacher. It is said that when form is pied, or the paper is late in going to press, instead of swearing he goes over to the boys md delivers a pious address. They nave such a terror of the infliction that it IS great deal more effective than cussln'.
 Mir. ]. H. Cook, a cattleman of Southwestern New Mexico, describes the Apaches as follows: "Little bodies and big heads, dirty and semi. naked, and as full of h-l as a taran- tula that's the Apache. The Apache Is wild animal with the human cun- hing. He murders for the pure GUS sedness and demonic delight of it. He can travel sixty-fve miles day over the toughest mountain, his spin, dies of legs carrying his narrow body and his big head through deiiles and up trails where a burro cannot go, and his squaw keeps right along with him. They live on roots and herbs and wlli feast on the Spanish Dayonet, d species of cactus, which the white man cannot touch.

THE strongest argument of the anti silver men against the further coinage of silver dollars Is. that the bulk of the silver, instead of going into cir culation, remains stored in the vaults of the United States treasury. This was the Presidents arg in.nt in his message when he recommended the discon,iuuance of silver coinage. Now, since the present secretary ol of the treasury came into office, he has neglected to comply with the law which compels him to reduce the na tlonal debt at least one per centum during the fiscal year. The fiscal year commenced on the first of July last, and the one per cent reduction made compulsory by Congress, amounts in round numbers to about s2o, 1000, 900. Way should not this amount, or part of it, have been paid out of this silver in the treasury vaults which seems to be the bugbear of the present administration /? Because Secretary Manning is hostile to ex. tending the circulation of silver There are now about $50, ,ooo, 900 of gold in the treasury, but by using this, the Secretary would diminish his gold surplus, and that would perhaps com. pei him to use silver for other pay ments, which could not be postponed. The more silver that the secretary of the treasury can hoard, the stronger will be the cry of the monometali.ts against its further coinage.

THE coming encampment Of the Grand Army of the Republic at San Francisco will in all probability be the largest, as we'll as the most impor- iant reunion of the veterans of the war that has yet been held. The ma jority of the members will of course be from the Eastern and Middle States and while here they will want to see all the great sights west of the Rocky mountains. As the Grand Canon of the Colorado Is incompatible among the wonders of nature, arrang ements should he made for the visitors to stop of at Flagstaff and visit 1t. The veterans would meet with hearty welcome from the people ot this place and the sights that would be shown them would never be forg gotten.

THE following editorial paragraph

THE following edl.o"lal paragraph IS taken from the Globe Democrat:
 "The application for troops to pro, tect the SaH Carlos Indians from law less whites is only another evidence Oi the fact that the reverse of the In. dian question is quite as large as the side commonly contemplated. Calls for troops 10 protect settlers from In dians are frequent and loud, but ap. plicationS in the interest of the cav ages are rare. Yet there is some req son to believe that ,he Indians often stand in need 0. protection which they fail 10 receive, and when they undertake to protect themselves they aye promptly set down as aggressorS, and soldiers are dispatched against them. l, nigh, be we'll, even at thi' day. for Congress 10 look into this mater a hltlr, and give the country a few facts on the other side.
