A Hell-rIole Closed.

Some weeks ago, license was grant
ed 10y the Board of Supervisors of
Jefferson county ~ one Mcdaniel to
open saloon within five miles Of
Union Church where the counties OF
Jefferson, Lincoln aud Franklin cor
ner. aud to- say that this saloon Mt
once became an intolerable nuisance
to- the good people in all that country
round about, aud standing menace
To the public peace aud order, is but
stating fact. 4 nnnIl,cr of the lead
ing G. tizens Of that neighhoihood, APP
prcciaiins The dircful results of such
IN evil in their midst, promptly re-
solved upon its suppression, If il
could he accomplished. A little in
vcstigation elected the fact that il
had been set up in violation of law,
aud last Saturday petition was pre-
scented to Judge Clrisman for an in
junction and the same granted on the
following grounds:
/. That the order granting the priv.
ilege did not describe the place where
tile liquor was to be sold with suffi.
cicnt particularly; the grant being to
sell in the northeast corner of Ger.
tain section.
2. Because before the passage of the
local option law, there was local ACT
prohibiting the sale of liquor in five
miles of Union church, and before the
local option law took effect, char.
tered institution of learning was 10.
Gated in the prohibition territory, and
the local act was protected and ex-
cepted from the repeating section Of
the local option act on that account
3. Though the petition for license
alleged Mr.. Mcdaniel was man OF
good moral character, the Judgment
granting the license did not adjudi-
cate hut preteInitted any notice OF
that essential requirement of the Jaw.
The petition for injunction was pre-
pared and filed by District Attorney
McLa in, aud the fiat granted by

The Penitentlary Farm.

The Clarion-Ledger has the follow
ing to say about the crops on the Pen.
itentiary farm at Jackson. According
to this showing, the sooner the State
prison farm is established and the
leasing system brought to an end the
better:
This year the manager, Capt. JeB-
kins, planted thirty acres Of new
ground in corn about the first OF
June. The land was cleared last win
ter and of course was full of roots and
stumps, but they did not seem to hurt
the crop, as he gathered an average
Of 81 lis bushels per acre corn, 81
bushels of peas and 23,jO0 pounds OF
fodder.
From is acres in potatoes he has al
ready gathered 1875 bushels of the
finest and largest potatoes ever seer
in the State. The largest single po-
tato weighs 10 1-2 pounds; five of the
largest weigh A. pounds, and twenty
five of the largest weigh 179.
| This immense yield of corn and po-
tatOes was supplemented by the pro.
duction, also, of over 5000 pump
kins, some of which are of immens,
proportions.
Capt. jenkins is believer in the
efficacy of cotton seed meal 20(
pounds per acre having been applied
at the last blowing. Farming at tn,
peniteGtiary certainly pays.

A Novel Question.

A very curious question has arisen
under the new Constitution in regard
to the city election to be held on the
first Monday 9th day of January,
1891, in Biloxi, WOOdville and Holly
Springs. The franchise article pro-
vides certain qualifications for voters
and office holders which apply to
towns as well as to State and county
elections. One of these is the voter
must be registered again it is provid-
ed there shall be no registration with
in four months of an election. The
Dortch Law ordinance and the fran
chise article both take effect the first
of January, and all statutes in conflict
are abrogated. OF course nothing
can be done under the Dortch Law
until it goes into operation and by its
terms no person can be voted for nm
less on official ballot and the name of
the candidate must be in at least ten
days before the election.
1t is therefore manifest that if the
constitution takes effect literally there
eau he no qualified voters or office
holders i'm those towns on the 5th OF
January. So the question is shall a
literal construction he applied and
those towns thereby disorganized. II
is believed there is nothing in the
charter empowering the present in
cumbents to hold over.
The president of the convention is
understood to hold that elections
must proceed without reference to the
constitution Commercial Herald.

The lumbermen's convention which
ct in New Orleans last week WAS
very largely attended, and prrma-
nant organization WAS effected under
the title of the Southern Lumber
Manufacturers Association. Under
the Constitution all manufacturers of
Southern lumber and wholesale deal
ers are eligible to membership, MEM
berslip being 10 longer confined sole
~ to yellow pine men.
The Association incorporated II
clause in the official price list provid-
ing that hereafter the shipper only
guarantees prices, and that his re-
sponsibility ceases when bill of lading
is issued by the railroad.
The governors Of the different
States will he memoralized to recon-
mend To their legislatures the passage
of laws against railroads failing to
furnish adequate shipping facilities,
and Congress lis to he appealed to to
amend the interstate commerce law
SO as to remedy all unjust discrimina-
lions.
\ committee was appointed to pre-
pare plains for lumber exhibit at
the Worlds Fair. 1t WAS propO Sed
that each State assist in erecting an
octagonnl building. in which the as
ISOLATION will hold convention.
Annual meetings will hereafter he
held on the second Wednesday in
January. Memphis was named as the
next place of meeting.
Lincoln, which is one of the great
est lumber producing counties in the
South, was we'll represented ut the
meeting by her leading lunlbermcn,
Capt. Lacey, McssrS. Hartman, Drcy-
fus and others taking AL important
part in the proceedings.
The lumber industry is one of the
most importont in the South, and the
LEADER is glad to see the hard work
ed but poorly paid lumbermcn com
ing together and organizing for their
mutual interest and protection.

The Farmers Alliance.

The objects of the Alliance are "tO
labor for the education of the agricnl-
tural classes in the science of econOm-
zeal government, in a strictly non
partisan sense; to indorse the motto,
In things essential, unity, in all
things, charity; to develop II better
State mentally, morally, socially and
financially; to create a better under
standing for sustaining civil officers ia
maintaining law and order; to con-
stantly STRIKE to secure entire har-
mony and good will among all man
kind and brotherly love among our
selves; to suppress personal, local,
sectional and national prejudices, all
unhealthy rivalry and selfish ambi-
ton.
Are not these objects worthy of the
greatest effort of which the head, the
heart and the hand are capable!

Well Said and to the Point.

The people of Mississippi owe it to
themselves and to Col. Hemingway,
to locate the whereabouts of the treas
ury shortage. The PinkertOns make
it their business to unuvel just such
cases, and they can discover all the
ins and outs of this "mysteriOus" de-
falcation. A thousand dollars judi
cIously expended in this direction, will
do the business. II Col. Hemingway
is an innocent man, as he protests,
and his friends assert, he ought to be
indicated and liberated without de-
lay. If, on the other hand, he is
guilty, as twelve of his peers and the
courts have said, and has had accom-
pliecs, they should be uncovered and
made to share the same fate which has
been mctcd out to him. In this mat
ter the peoples motto should be :
'Let 10 guilty man escape, let no in
nocent man be STANDARDIZATION

The WessOn Mills.

AS an evidence of the rapid growth
of the mills, and their continuous in
crease in capacity, so new looms have
arrived this week. with so more to
follow. The knitting machinery that
was expected some time ago, has also
been received. and will be in full ope-
ration soon. This enlargement of the
mills necessitates. of course, new
force of hands, and will to some ex-
tent, help build up Our town.. The

victs fit for farm duty. They are
scattered over the delta counties 10
squads of from Is to 20, and IN most
instances the same planters who had
them this year are retaining them az
