KERKAM'S SUCCESSOR.
Lieutenant Finley May BE Again Ordere,

to San Francisco.
Now that Roberts T.. Kerkam of the
Weather Bureau has been ordered to Wash
ingtOn gossip is busy In the matter Of nam
Ing q probable successor. Mr.. Kerkam
himself knows nothing definite as to who
has been named for the place, and rather
doubts that any selection has been made as
yet. In his opinion the assignment, which
by the way is much sou ght after stands be-
tween three men. Lieutenant j. F. Finley,
who was stationed here for three years,
and who was relieved by the in
cnmbent, is very desirous of returning t.
the coast, and according to report, made
application for the division come time ago.
Finley at the present time Is stationed at
Washington. The other applicants are /:
j. Ii. Smith, forecast official stationed at
Boston, and Lieutenant w. A. Glassford,
now on duty at Washington.
Mr. kerkam would not venture an opinion
as to which officer stood the best chance of
winning the Pacific Coast detail "They
are all good men," said he, land are very
DESTROYS of coming to California. Lieu
tenant Finley was very popular here an d
his many friends would rejoice In an orde r
that would return him to San Francisco.
The transfer will take place some time be-
tween April 10th and 18Th"

THE CRIME OF LYNCHING.

THE CRIME OF LYNCHING.
Lawlessness is not less such, but
more, where it usurps the functions of
peace officers and of the courts. The
frequent lynching of colored people ac-
cused of crime is without the excuse
which has sometimes been urged by
mobs for failure to pursue the ap-
pointed methods for the punishment of
crime, that the accused have an undue
influence over courts and juries. Such
acts are reproach to the community
where they occur, and so far as they can
be made the subject of fed
eral Jurisdiction, the strongest
repressive legislation is demanded.
Public sentiment that will sustain the
officers of the law in resisting mobs and
in protecting accused persons in their
custody should be promoted by every
possible means. The officer who gives
his life in the brave discharge of his
duty is worthy of special honor. No
lesson needs to be so urgently i'm
pressed upon our people than this, that
no worthy end or cause can be promoted
by lawlessness.

For the Democrat Star.
CONE TO SCRANTON.


To all who contemplate a journey, and not in
search of wealth,
Come to the town of Scranton and get what is
b~etter--hsalth.
Its pure, invigorating air is far the best ape
tizing tonic,
Than modern science has devised, for maladies
grown chronic.
The talk of lovely scenery that other climes
can boast,
But certainly the hand of nature has fingered
on this Coast.
Come, go down its busy thoroughfares and on,
not very far,
You find our efficient MAYERs, of the ncwsy
DEMocRAT-STAR,
Who has fought the hard fight to keep peace
within its bound,
And not a pig or goat is now allowed to run
the town.
The Sunday law enforced, and all now strictly
adhere,
And the sweet Ginning bells bids all to church
draw near.
What a wonderful change, a Sunday in its full
est sense,
A peaceful time gained lost a few dollars and
cents,
Its ordinances are rigid, but in keeping with
the present time,
And if you violate them the Sheriff quickly
you will find,
So come, one and all in search of health, peace
and pleasure,
And You get your moneys worth in an over
flowing measure.
Scranton, Miss, July 10, 1899.
