More Bad Postal Service.

Not long ago the Voice, the leading
Prohibition party paper of the nation,
discovered and produced the proof,
plain and positive, that the U. S. post
masters in some portions of the coun-
try, were suppressing it's papers and
wilfully failing to deliver them to its
subscribers and those to whom they
we're addressed The LEADER does not
charge that it is being treated the
same way by any of Uncle Sans of
ficials in Mississippi, but it is receiving
so many complaints from subscribers of
failure to receive the paper promptly,
or not at all, that it seriously suspects
there is something of the kind.
The following from Mr.. r. S. New
man, postmaster at Veto, Franklin
county, Miss, is a fair sample of a
number of complaints received during
the past week:
The "MIssIssIPPI LEADER is received
with great irregularity at this Office.
Why is this q? Other papers published
at Jackson are received the day after
publication"
The LEADER is regularly delivered to
the jackson postoffice every Thursday,
the day of publication, and should
reach all its subscribers in the State,
except at very few remote postoffices
in the interior, before the following
Saturday night. We again ask friends
to promptly notify us of failure to re-
ceive the paper regularly and help us
fix the responsibility for the failure.

nrLLmAN COLLEGE ooNcEnr.

1 The annual spring concert of Hill
man College took place on last Friday
evening. Although an entrance fee
was charged, the elegant and commo-
dious audience room of the new Adelia
Hall was crowded to its utmost capaci-
ty. The concert, which consisted en-
tirely of vocal and instrumental music,
was most enjoyable and of rare excel
lence. Miss Grace Dyer, of the East
ern Conservatory of Music, won fat
tering encomiums for her skill in train
ing the youthful voices under her
charge, and there was not a flaw to
mar the beauty of any portion of her
repertoire.
Prof. Menger had carefully trained
his pupils on piano and violin and the
music from sixteen hands was delight
to all lovers of the art. His original
composition, a violin solo, with piano
accompaniment, was especially appre-
ciated.
At the close of the regular exercises
Miss Dyer pleased the audience with
an excellent rendition of 1.-THE Last
Rose of Summer" after which delight
full refreshments were sold for the ben
eft of the Lesbian Library and Art
Hall.
Pres. Hillman is man who does not
bend the knee to public praise or pub
lie blame, while giving due Difference
to both. He has striven on against
wind and tide through many years to
attain the success that is now his, and
to-day finds him full of years and wis
dom, born of experience, still march
ing on with the progress of the times
While he yet lives and labors for the
cause of humanity, we speak these
words of praise, hoping that when the
reins fall from his hands they may be
given into those who will honor his
memory and emulate his example.

A TWIN DRAM-SHOP.

The inquiries made by our cores
pondent, "CitiZen," are most pertinent
ones, and are entitled to the considera-
ton of the Board of Mayor and Alder
men of this city. The simple facts are
as he states. The licensee in the case
obtained renewal of his license be-
fore the new "Dram-shops" chapter
went into effect, and hence according
to the opinion of Attorney General
Miller, he is amenable to the provi-
sions of the Code of 1880, until Nov
1. The following quotation from sec
ton 1105 of the Code of 1880, seems
to be the law which should govern in
this case:
The particular place and house in
which the liquors may be sold, shall be
designated in the license, and no IL
cense shall authorize any person to
sell vinous or spirituous liquors at any
other place or house, than that speci-
fled in such license. But, for sufficient
reason, the authority, which granted a
license, may allow a change in the
house in which liquors may be sold, as
specified in the license, but in no case
to admit of more than one place to sell
under the license.
1t is clear from this that Mr.. Fra
giacomo has no authority to run two
bar-rooms under one license. If the
Board of Mayor and Aldermen grant
ed him such privilege, they have plain
ly transcribed their own authority,
and he and his bondsmen are none the
less legally liable to the pains and pen
alties prescribed in chapter 80 of the
Code of 1880.
The LEADER hopes and believes the
time will soon be here when jackson
will be without bar-rooms, but until
that time comes it shall insist none
the less emphatically that the license
laws be rigidly complied with. Let the
city authorities be heard from.
Mississippi leader. (Jackson, Miss.) 1892-1895, 1892-04-14

The story comes that certain saloon
keepers propose to negative the screen
removal provision of the new law, by
transferring their bars to second
stories of buildings. This would very
probably be permissible by law, though
city councils could cure the defect, by
adding a requirement to carry on bus
mess on first floors. Indeed there is
little in the Dram Shop act that could
not have been ordained by municipal
ties. And it would be good policy for
the cities and towns to settle doubts
as to the time of the law going into eff
feet, by definite declaration through
ordinance. Even if this is not done it
will be a mistake in the liquor dealers
to thwart or evade the law The next
Legislature would surely amend it, and
just as surely give another turn to the
screw of restriction.
The law of saloons may be ignored
or set at naught in some States, but
not in Mississippi. Attempts at this
in certain sections, going so far in
some as to band the saloon influence
for the election of Legislators, has di-
rectly effected the adoption of the
present rather severe law.-The Cldr-
ION

THE CHAPTER ON pRAMsuoPs
Attorney General Miller Holds that Its
Provisions do Not Apply Where
Licenses Were Issued Before
The Enforcing Ac, was
Adopted.

Adopted.
Some confusion having arisen as to
what opinion was held by Attorney
General Miller rs to how far the new
chapter on dramshops would affect
liquor licenses issued before that chap
ter was put into force by the enforcing
act, a representative of the LEADER
called upon that gentleman Tuesday to
learn what opinion he really does hold
on the subject. He was politely in
formed by the General that he had ex-
amined into the subject fully, since
first quoted, and that it is clear to him
that none of the provisions of the new
law apply to licenses granted before
the enforcing Act was approved April
2, 1892. Until November /, 1892, when
the whole Annotated Code takes effect,
licenses issued before April 2, are sub
ject only to the conditions of the Code
of 1880. All licenses issued after April
2, however, come under the restrictions
of the new law, and after Nov l, it APP
plies to new and old alike.

Some time the State Of Mississippi
will outgrow the privilege tax system
for all classes except itinerant peddlers
who pay no taxes anywhere and who
have the good of no particular section
to work for. The professional and bus
mess men Of the State should not be
compelled to pay tax or license for
the privilege Of trahsacting business.
IL doubles their tax burdens and Is I'M
democratic in that the law that com
pels it is class legislation. Fix a rate
of taxation high enough to raise the
necessary funds for State and county
purposes and let every property holder
pay his share of it. The matter can
easily be adjusted in that way without
imposing too heavy burdens. The
privilege tax is hoary old war times
chestnut that should be relegated to the
Brandon NetrS.

The following is the language of the
Annotated Code chapter on priv leges
relating to cigarettes.
cigarettes; On each dealer in cigar
cites or cigarette papers $50 And this
shall apply even though the party has
paid privilege tax as other dealers.
Municipalities may add as much as
80 per cent. to this or any other privi-
lege tax but supervisors are prohibit
ed from so doing.

Two pr.m. srop. under One License.

Editor Mississippi Leader
viii you allow me through your ex-
cellent journal TO make an inquiry, and
thereby call the attention of the pub
lie aud city authorities to what seems
to me to be an abuse of a privilege, and
also violation of the law in this city?
Where is the authority found for
running two bars or retail liquor sa-
looms under one license? Can a per
son retail vinous and spirituous liquors
in two different houses, differently
numbered, and on different streets,
under one license? Doesn't the law
require the street to be numbered, the
house designated, and the saloon to be
in the front part of the house?
How can there be two fronts and
two bars on two separate streets, one
street running east and west, end the
other north and south, and both bars
carried on under one license to retail?
Have the city authorities examined
into this matter and has the city at
torney given an opinion as to the legal
ity of thus carrying on the dram-shop
business? ..-
