The Helen johnson Guards.

Thirty years ago what Mississippian
did not know of the Helen johnson
Guards. Helen johnson was the
young mistress of Annandale, rose
garden of an estate that might have
been in the valley of Bulbul, but was
at Canton, Mississippi. When the
war broke out the young heiress
equipped company, gave it its col
ors, was its watchword and its inspir-
alton. On the Confederate records it
was Company E. oath Mississippi, but
in the hearts of the soldiers it was
the Helen Johnson Guards.
The war was over, the swords were
turning into ploughshares and prun-
ing hooks. Not long ago a MISSISSIPPI
plan was in Chicago looking over
some old flags and war relics he saw
the commission issued by Gov. Pettus
to Capt. +. G.. Post tell, the first Cap
tain of the Helen johnson Guards
How it had wandered so far from
home is not known, but it revives the
pretty story of the young girls en-
thusiasm and the part she played in
the civil war. Helen johnson is now

The Vicksburg Post says, 1--WE are
certain the National Democratic party
will have to endorse his [Cleveland's !
views on the currency question"
The LEADER thinks so too, because
the Eastern wing of the party, which
is omnipotent in party councils, will
demand it rs the price of their sup
port, even though Cleveland may not
be the nominee. And this being true,
the question will naturally arise, how
can any Alliance Democrat in Missis-
sippi who is in earnest about change
in the financial system of the govern
ment, consistently remain in the DEM
Ocratic party

About the Size of 1t.

We are quite young, not being able
to remember more than % years back,
and we have been hearing the same
cry all the time from the Democratic
leaders, "just stick together and we
will do thus and So" and they have
not done it. When they get to Wash
ington they agree to disagree. They
have bone of contention to fight
over, and then go home and tell the
people that sent them there what Il
noble fight they made for them, and
that if they would come out to the
election and send them back again
things would work out all right, for
the rise or fall of the Government de-
pended on their election.-COringtOn
County Journal.
Mississippi leader. (Jackson, Miss.) 1892-1895, 1892-04-28

Congressman Watson, one of the
Peoples party leaders of Georgia,
puts it this way: "The Republicans
say they are in favor of protection as
a principle, yet through reciprocity
they are trying to escape 1t as prac-
tice, while the Democrats say that
"free trade" as government princi-
pie is thoroughly right, but they do
not dare to adopt it as a rule of ac-
ton. They stop at tariff for revenue,
with incidental projections"
Mississippi leader. (Jackson, Miss.) 1892-1895, 1892-04-28

One of the best Alliance papers
which reaches this office is The Truth,
published at San Antonio, Texas, and
edited by r. w. Coleman, the talent
ed and eloquent young Mississippian
who did such splendid pioneer work
in this State few years ago as State
Alliance Lecturer. 1t is quite need
less to say The Truth does not see
any hope for reform through either OF
the old parties.

New Land Assessment.

The assessment of land has been
changed from the plan adopted in
1888, and must be assessed as provid-
ed for under the old law. That is,
each owner gives in his land under
oath as he did prior to 1888, and the
Board of Supervisors sit as a Board
of Equalization to lower and raise the
price fixed as required by the old
Code. A new assessment of real es-
tate must therefore be had this year.

State Tax Levy.

State Government and for the free public
schools thereof for the year 1892 and 1898.

islature of the State of Mississippi,

the support of the State Government
and for the free public schools is here

standing Indebtedness may levy an ad-
ditional tax for paying interest there
on, and to create a sinking fund to pay
the principle if necessary; but the
whole amount so levied shall not ex-
coed seventeen and half mills.
Sec. 2. That this act take effect and
be in force from and after it's passage.
Approved March 30, 1892.

Thousands of negroes in Louisiana
voted for Foster, the regular Demo

ence to either Break or Leonard, the

The Commercial Herald says Vicks-

the law against screens by moving their
saloons up stairs. 1t is easy enough for
a man to go up stairs to drink, but
think of his getting down again, after
