The first copy of the Mississippian,
the new Alliance paper resulting from
the consolidation of the New Missis-
sippian, New Farmer and Common
wealth, has been received, and if the
initial number may be taken as fair
index of the paper in future it will
prove a luminous success. Messrs.
Wilson and Martin, editors and pro
prietOrs, are both fine writer's and ex-
perienced, energetic newspaper men,
and the combination will undoubted-
ly furnish the finest weekly newspa-
per in the State.

More Light Wanted.

Editor Brookhaven Leader:
After declining to give the names of
the ministers who "condoled with
Hemingway in his disgrace" the Wal
thall Warden piOusly remarks, "Mr.
Scarborough is, we believe, a minister
and must realize how manifestly i'm
proper and mchristian it would be,
under such circumstances, to parade
the names of the erring brothers be-
fore the public and call attention to
their mistake after they have repent
ed"
Now, if man commit an error he
cannot do a greater thing than repent
of it; then the next greatest thing lie
can do is to confess his fault. True
repentance will invariably lead to
confession, and if those ministers have
truly repented they certainly have
confessed it to some one, and if the
Warden will not give us their names,
which, in all candor he ought to do,
will he please give his "good authori-
ty" for saying "they have repented
their errOr."f If they are Catholic
priests and have confessed to their
Bishops, we'll enough; but do turn on
a little light somewhere sloDg the
line, and not be running IL secret soci-
ETY. in which men and seven ministers
of the gospel may commit great
blunders, repent of and confess them
and the world never know nothing
of it.
l trust that the Walthall Warden
will "realize how manifestly improper
and unchristian" it would be to do a
thing of this sort, and quit flag etating
the venerable Nick around the rem
nant of tree. Come out and tell us
something.

The Columbus Index, which was
stoutly opposed to the calling of the
Constitutional Convention, takes this
liberal and patriotic view of the Con
ventlon's work, which all may adopt
with profit: The Constitution, in all
its length, breadth and scope, is the
product of Mississippians, and Missis-
sippians who are to live under it are
entitled to all the good they can get
out of it, and The Index advocates
giving the instrument the fullest and
fairest trial in order to get the fullest
benefits.
