BE CONSISTENT.

The Acadia Sentinel il . bright
and newsy paper, but in some things
It i decidedly inconsistent. For
instance, 1t the top Of its local col
umn, last week. It says:
There d nothing new under the
SUM-"
Yet . little further down We find
the following:
"Mr. Perkins, the lumberman, il
having . shed erected for use in his
business"
Nov, il there Is "nothing new
under the sum-" what would you
call Mr.. Perkins shed?
Editors should be careful and
avoid making such contradictory
statements, or they will lay them
selves open to the charge Of being
Inconsistent.

The decision of the United States
Supreme Court affirming the consti-
tutionality Of the Mississippi law
providing for separate cars for the
two races settles . long-vexed ques-
ton On . basis that viii produce the
least friction and thus promote har-
mony and good feeling between
white and black. 1t now remains
for the railroad companies in the
South to give practical expression to
the spirit Of the new decision, which
means that not only separate but IS
far . possible equal accommodations
ought to be provided for colored
people who travel on their trains.
The decision also has great signifi-
canoe = showing the drift Of public
opinion Ill over the country, without
regard to section or party.-Ex.
Now that the constitutionality Of
such . law has been established by
the highest court in the land, it is
probable that it will be en-
forced. not only in Mississippi, but
10 every State in the Union.
