Lumbermen's Convention.

The Southern Pine Lumber Asso-
citation met in Meridian on the 18th
inst. The following mills were rep
resented: Camp g. Houston, Lumber
ton, Miss; Kemper, Lewis & Co., Lau-
rel, Miss; B. f. Cristol, w. w. Wads-
worth, Wadsworth, Ala; j. J. White,
of McComb City Miss.
Mr.. j. j. White, of McCOmb City,
presided. On taking the chair Mr..
White said that the sale of yellow
pine was constantly increasing and
that it had virtually run out white
pine lumber in many of the western
markets, notably in Kansas City,
where he said that so per cent of the
lumber now sold in that market was
yellow pine.
He also said that the want of uni
formity in prices and the want of a
concert of action among the millmen
in the yellow pine districts was what
was now damaging this interest more
than all other things combined, and
that the millmen of the South did not
realize the value of the product of
their mills.
The convention appointed com
mittee on the railroads in the lumber
districts to visit each mill and induce
full attendance at the March meet
ing of the association at Birmingham,
Ala.

Hard On Col. Frantzy.

The Committee on Journalism of
the Rankin County Alliance, said in a
recent report, "there is no paper in
the county worthy of the support and
encouragement of any man in the
county" When it is remembered that
the Brandon Republican, Col Frantzy's
paper, is the only one published in
Rankin, the point in the above gentle
hint is apparent.

After the Battle.

AlteT the DAttfcs
The success of the National Repub-
lican ticket announced in our last is
sue has been more than confirmed
since. At first it was thought the
Democrats had saved the House of
Representatives, but as the returns
came in the majority they claim
ed was gradually whitfield down
and finally wiped out altogether, Civ
ing the Republicans control by ma
jority variOusly estimated at from
2 to IL. In short, the Republican
victory has been complete, and places
them in possession of the Presidency,
and both branches of Congress.
The Democrats carried only two
small Northern States. New Jersey
gave Democratic plurality of about
10000, and Connecticut a Cleveland
plurality of something over three
hundred. Harrison carried New
York by a plurality of 1000, and
Indiana by from 1000 to 5000. West
Virginia elected Republican Cover
nor, and is claimed for President by
both parties. If the Republicans get
it on the official count, they will to
that extent have broken the Solid
South.
So far as can be ascertained the
gains made by the Republicans in the
congressional districts are distributed
as follows:
One in California, l in Connecticut,
2 in Iowa, in Louisiana, 2 in Mary
land, 2 in Massachusetts, 2 in Michi-
gan, 2.in Minnesota, in Missouri,
in Nebraska, l in New Hampshire,
in New York, l in Ohio, in Pennsyl-
vania, in Tennessee and l in Wis
CONSTITUTIONAL %.
The Democrats claim to offset these
gains by 10 in other States, leaving
net gain for the Republicans of IL.
If these figures are unchanged the Re-
publican strength in the next house
will be 1863, and the Democrats 156.
Possibly the Republican number may
be reduced some, but they have ac-
cOrding to the present returns, the
certainty of a majority.
Perhaps, after all, it is best that the
Republicans should have control of
the House, as well as the Presidency
and Senate. By this, they become
responsible to the country not only
for what they do, but also for what
they fail to do.
Judging by the conciliatory tone of
the Northern Republican press, the
policy of the new administration will
be conservative, and nothing extreme
will be done toward the South, as
many have anticipated. The Cincin-
natl Commercial Gazette, the most
ultra and bitter Republican paper of
the country, says no attempt will be
made to negrOize the governments of
the Southern States, but that they
will rather be won over by appeals to
their financial and material interests.
No doubt, one of the chief concerns
of the Republican party will be to lay
plans to perpetuate it's own success,
and among them will be the admission
as States of the Territories of North
and South Dakota, Washington and
Montana, which will give them new
Senators and increase their vote in
the Electoral College. A new appor-
tiOnment after the 11th census will
also probably be made by the Repub-
lican Congress. This may result in
the loss of one or two Representatives
to the South. In the Northwest there
will be increased representation, and
it is expected that the electoral col
lege will be not less than 20 votes
stronger four years hence.

 It is reported that visitors contemplating going to Saratoga this summer are already in quite large numbers engaging accommoda tions at the various hotels and boarding houses.
 This being presidential year politicians and those interested in national affairs will make Saratoga their headquarters as usual, but in remarkably large numbers compared to for mer political occasions. It Is there where plans are laid by each party for prosecuting vigorous campaign in the fall-conssquent- ly it is thus why an early application for quarters at the hotels will be wisely made by those expecting to visit Saratoga this sum. mer. The Continental is among the hotels fsvorably known by people in this vicinity. As it furnishes good airy rooms, and its table ia daily supplied with the best the sea son affords and the prices are extremely moderate, and it is one of the most homelike places inSaratoga to tie up to. Its agency for this vicinity is at Beers photo parlors, where rooms can be selected in advance, either double or single, and at terms which are exceeding low, either by the day. week or month The Continental is pleasantly and centrally situated on Washington street directly back of the Grand Union Hotel, and only very few minutes walk to the Congress Park, the celebrated Hathorn and other min. eral gpfinQs.
