The Alcohol Cases.

The Supreme Court last Monday dis
missed the case of Byron Lemly VS.
the State, which it will be remembered
involved the right of a druggist, under
the old law, to sell alcohol without first
paying the regular retail license. The
reason assigned for dismissal was the
fact that the court below failed to
render final judgment. This at the
time seems to have been regarded as
unnecessary, as it was understood the
case would be appealed to the Supreme
Court and made test case on its mer-
it's.
1t now goes back to Judge Chrisman
who will pass sentence at the June
term of the Circuit court in this and
the other alcohol cases in which sen.
tence was suspended to await decis-
ion in this case, and then will likely &c
back to the Supreme Court again.

Kinds County Columbian Club.

An organization bearing this name
was formed at the Governors Mansion
last Monday afternoon, under the
leadership of Mrs. J. M. Stone, for the
purpose of inaugurating movement
to have Mississippi creditably repre-
sented at the Worlds Fair. The pride,
public spirit and zeal shown by the
ladies in this matter is commendable
in the highest degree, and deserve the
sympathy and substantial cooperation
of every loyal Mississippian. The fol-
lowing officers were elected;
President, Mrs. j. NJ Stone first vice
president, Miss Addie Purnell second
vice president, Mrs. G. G. Campbell ;
secretary, Miss Eta Mitchell; assist
ant secretary, Miss Mary Mayes treas

Manufartnries for Jackson.

Capt. J. f. Merry, the energetic and
popular general assistant passenger
agent of the l. c. Railroad, was here
last Monday to talk with our leading
business men about advertising Jack
sons advantages as a manufacturing
point in pamphlet the l. c. Railroad
Co. proposes to publish soon for free
distribution in the North and West.
! After talking the subject over at
meeting of representative citizens at
the Edwards House, Capt. Merry sug-
gested that committee be appointed
to write up Jackson's advantages for
the proposed pamphlet, giving facts
and figures about schools, soil, climate,
crops, timbers, factories, etc, and in
ducements held out for others. A COM
mittee was accordingly appointed by
Major Millsaps, chairman of the meet
ing, composed as follows DR.. P. W. Pee
bles, chairman, Capt. j. S. McNeily, /.
c. Enochs, John Mcdonnell, l. Strauss,
F. A. Wolf, and John Hart, and they
we're requested to get the matter ready
by the 25th inst.
jackson is an inviting field for man
ufacturing enterprises, and those
who have money lying idle in bank like
one man mentioned by Major Millsaps,
need not wait for outside capital. With
the timber and transportation facili-
ties afforded here, a wheel and spoke
factory could be easily made paying
investment. Combined with this AK
handles, shovel handles, names and
whiffle-trees, and number of indis-
pensible articles might be manufact
ured right here which are now import
ed from Northern factories. AS Mr..
Merry suggested, even coffin factory
might be made to pay.
Manufactures would be the salvation
of the South, and there are few better
places for them than Jackson.

1t is believed by many that under
the new license law, saloons in Missis-
sippi can be abolished by counter-pe-
tition. Let all such prove their faith
by their works, and the LEADER will
bid them God-speed. And right here
a suggestion: Experience has demon
strated that the best time to get up a
contemplation is before majority of
the voters have committed themselves
to license by signing a saloon petition.
Move before the whisky men do, not
withstanding it requires an early bird
to do it.
Mississippi leader. (Jackson, Miss.) 1892-1895, 1892-04-21

Some business men who advocated
saloons on the fallacious idea that
their presence brought trade to the
town, have been heard to curse the
ID saloons since because they gobble
up nearly all the cash of certain class
of customers ON Saturdays, who then
60 to the business men en-
gagged in legitimate callings and
buy what they have to have ION tick. .
We are sorry for such business men,
but we can't cry.

Educated Kline.

The State Ledger says, Put lock
ON your front gate, lock it every night,
and the festive Jersey will remain out
side"
That may do for the average Jackson
Jersey, but we have COWS down here
that when they get loose, laugh locks
and locksmiths to scorn, like lovers
sometimes do. They don't waste their
precious time on locks and gates, but
when they see particularly inviting,
we'll kept garden on which they wish
to browse, they deliberately pull the
pickets off the fence and thus effect an
entrance. They are educated COWS, and
help to educate the victims of their
depredations, too, but it is in profani-
ty. There is one especial COW down
here that we would like to send our
jackson neighbors if they want her,
Ndtehez Democrat.

Prostituting the P. o.
Parkers5irg sentinel

In our mail this morning we found a
Republican exchange with the Repuoli-
can campaign newspaper Protection ana
Reciprocity published in New YORK;
folded inside Of ii.
We are denied the privilege of folding
the World newspaper, published IN Ne"
York, in the Sentinel.
So, is appears that the evidence Is In
disputable, that the postoiiice depart
ment is a Republican political annex
and that it is being used principally for
political purposes.
Republican newspapers can circulate
Republican campaign documents but
Democratic papers are not allowed 10
circulate Democratic documents.
There ought to be some punishment
for such an unjust discrimination, but
the only remedy lies in voting out OF
office the pious frauds and hypocriteS
who fix the regulations that make such
things possible.
