A Fine Appointment.

In the appointment of Edgar S. Will
son to the,offlce of Swamp Land Com
missioner, which he did on the eve of
adjournment of the Legislature, Gov.
Stone gave q splendid exhibition of
that sagacity and practical business
sense which, as rule, has ever char
acterized hisappointments. Mr.. Will
son has ripe experience in land
matters, having served four years as
Register of the land office at Chcy-
enne, Wyoming, under President
Cleveland's administration, where he
made one of the best records of any
Register Uncle Sam ever had.
Gov. Stone is making the appoint
ment, judging by the result achieved,
was actuated only by the desire to
secure an official who exactly fitted
the place, and Mr.. Wilson, who was
not an applicant and did not seek it,
accepted the compliment thus confer
red as u public trust.
Owing to late legislation, by
which a large amount of swamp lands
have reverted to the State, the office
becomes one of vastly increased inn
portance and will prove very re-
munerative one to the new incum-
bent. Among other things, by reason
of a new law, the advertising of GER
tain swamp lands is required, and the
commissioners will have at his dispos-
al among the newspapers of the
State from two to three thou
sand dollars in advertising pa
tronage, which is calculated to popu-
larize both the Legislature and Com
missioner with the State press.

The KOibrUnner Case.

The Supreme Court holds that ma

John Kolbrunner was indicted at the
last term of the Circuit Court of Pike
county for unlawfully selling wine.
The District Attorney and Mr.. j. c..
Lamkin, who was defending X,
agreed upon the facts, and the ques-
ton presented was: "Can native
wine be sold in a county that has
gone dry when it is not prohibited
by special law9" The District At
torney cOntended that when the To-
cal Option law went into effect that it
suspended the Code on the question
of the sale of intOxicants and all
amendments; while Mr.. l.. cOntended
that the Act of March is, 1886, which
was passed few days subsequent to
the Local Option law, repealed that
law, so far as it related to native
wines, and that when it wentinto effect
it itself was repealed, so far as native
wine was concerned. Judge Chris
man held that it was unlawful to sell
the wine. Supreme Court reversed
Judge C. and held Mr.. LIS view as

tirely out of their jurisdiction to have
accepted Mr.. Bowen's proposition, aud
had they done so aud he been so dis
posed, he could have gone ahead and
published the Acts and collected his
pay from the State Treasury in spite
of the Board. Neither is the price
given for printing these laws what the
Times says it is. Instead of u cent
and half per word, it is 10 cents for
10 lines of minion type, which
amounts to less than half the price
stated 10y the Times. If the Times
has a ycarning desire to publish these
local laws free as news, 1t still has
that privilege, Notwithstanding the
Board wouldn't exceed their authority
10y accepting its proposition.
A few words more and we will dis
miss the subject. AS shown above,
not only did the Board not treat the
Times uniustly, but it would have
acted entirely within the law if it had
not asked for any bids at all, and
given the publishing of its proceed
ings to the Leader at fifty or even one
hundred dollars year. The work is
worth that, if it is worth cent,
hence our first bid was made as it was.
Pike county pays one hundred for the
same work; COpiah, Kinds and Clai-
borne pay q hundred; jefferson from
a hundred and fifty to two hundred;
the last year Franklin county's Board
had their proceedings published they
paid one hundred. Lawrence county
last year paid $4,000, and other coun-
ties in the State pay in the same por-
portion. 1t was only when the Times
offered the cut-throat bid of 5000
that we offered to do the work for
nothing, because we had rather do
the work for nothing out right, than to
pretend to be getting pay for it when
we are not. Moreover, it ill-oecOmes
the Times to snceriugly taunt the
Board with parsimony when it en-
couragedi it in that direction by offering
to take a 800 job for So. We may
be pretty needy, but we are willing
to let the public decide in the light of
the facts, who appeared the needier
of the two.
Let the Times beware of cut thoat
prices and the game called bluff.
More than one Brookhayen paper that
has pursued that policy is now only Il
memory, while the Leader still lives.
There may be another.

Lotteries.

Editor Bro okhaven Leader:
1t was with no little qualification
that the writer noted your brief arti-
Gle in the LEADER of the 9th ult.
anent advertising lotteries. The in
PRODUCTION in the Legislature of Sen
ator Martins bill, carries with it the
idea that the lottery is an evil and a
great one (if there is any other kind
of eviD, and as such. needs to be cir
cumscribed by strict legislation. The
Senator at least recognizes this as Il
fact. Nor does he stand alone in
that recognition. There are thou
sands of people in this and other
States who have noted the trend of
such schemes and who raise their
voice against this iniquity. We be-
lieve there is only one State in the
Union that sanctions the lottery.
This in itself should convince citizens
of this enlightened nation of the evil
of such. Its lamentable effects upon
individual, family and community
have been wildly set forth by writer's
and speakers, and may be seen every
day. We're these results confined to
the one State above noticed, even
then persons throughout the whole
country would have sufficient cause to
utter their complaints, utilizing pen,
or voice, or both, in writing down
and crying down so great an evil.
But, alas! These ruinous effects are
felt elsewhere, and so the United
States government has legislated
against lotteries.
1t is not our purpose in this article
to prore that the principle of the lot
terry is one of sin. We pass, with the
assumption that it is, and that there
is sufficient material in our possession
to make clear the truth of our asser-
ton. The point to be urged is, that
it is the duty of all to fight, negative
ly at least, against this sin, by refus-
ing to encourage it by the purchase of
tickets. Duty really goes further
than this. TO fail to give ones sup
port to an evil, is indeed commenda-
BILE, but more than this is expected of
true men and women. 1t is expected
of them that they act on the aggres-
sive.
The lottery business is great foe
to morals-to religion. So great a foe
indeed that there would be great hes
itancy on the part of one person, at
least, in voting for man who favors
it, for the effect of the supporting of
this evil by any one holding Office
manifestly extends beyond himself to
his constituency, to the Office, and to
the whole town, county, state or
country.
That no newspaper which looks to
the good of its country should await
the legislation of man before refusing
to advertise any lottery 1be it rattle
or what nOt), is obvious. Admitting
the wrong of the scheme, and the i'm
propriety of advocating it is at once
seen.
1t is ours to oppose, not uphold
evil. GEO. G. WOODBRIDGE.

The young oyster must be returned
to the bed in which he was born, if the
oyster mans tOngs tears him from
his home, so that he may reach ma
| turity under conditions most favor
able to his growth and nature. 1t has
been the oyster mans habit, on his
trip from the oyster-bed to the land,
to sort out the young oysters, and to
throw them back into the deep sea-
where most of them perish. This,
the Legislature of Mississippi, just
adjourned, deems a wicked and wanton
waste of oyster-life, a cruelty to an
imals: and it rightly makes law
against this ruthlessness and waste of
the States wealth.
The Savior assured us of the Father
love and care in the words: ''Fear not,
little children, ye are of more value
than many sparrows." But the father
hood of Mississippi, as represented in
it's Legislature, has shouted out !;
"Get out of my way, children ! l
haven't any time to be fOoling over
you: the young oysters are being de-
stroycd by the millionw So it re-
fused Scientific Instruction bill for
the public schools, which would make
the children of the State self
protected against the ravages of the
whisky-traffic.
The little oysters have been granted
the legal protection of the Common
wealth of Mississippi, but the little
children of the State are left to take
their chances with all the powers of
evil. They are denied the right and
privilege to learn through their
schools the effects of alcoholic and
Narcotic poisons on their bodies, and
denied this that liquormen may be
protected in the privilege of dealing
out for money, under the protection
of law, the death-dealing poison to
our sons. Not one act for the general
protection of the children of the State
could be passed in the present legisla-
ture. The State Teachers Associa-
ton passed unanimous resolution to
ask the Legislature for law prohi-
biting the sale of cigarettes to minors.
Though several members had bills to
this effect, not one could be gotten
before the House with the slightest
prospect of passing it.
Children, the good Lord take
liking to you, for certainly your State
leaves you more unprotected than the I
little oysters, the cartridges in the
grass, or the minnOws in the stream.
But, God bless you, your mothers
are yet alive il the fathers are all
dead. To be mother means more
and more every day of the world. -

We to-day publish Judge Cassedy's
very interesting contribution to the
current literature on the race problem
In Mississippi politics. Honest old
Horace Greeley said, "the way to
resume is to resume.n If by
a solution of the race problem is
meant the guaranteeing of white
supremacy in the political af-
fairs of the State by legal methods,
DR.. Cassedy's prescription, is like DR..
Greeley's recipe for the resump-
ton of specie payments. 1t solves it.
1t is decidedly the most original prop
osition on the subject we have read.
Public thought, however, seems to be
running directly counter to it just
now. The trend of popular opinion
is to take away fsem the Legislature
the power to elect any officers but its
own, and the action of the last Legis-
iatuTe IN allowing itsclf to be con-
troiled by combinations and suffer
ing important legislation to be influ-
eneed by candidates for State Printer
