appropriations than heretofore 1t will not be in the power of the managers to com plete preparations in time to receive the large number Of convicts which will come under their control at the expiration of the present lease, or to employ them after wards in any way in which the department can be made self-sustaining. The General Assembly will have to provide for all these contingencies.
 The Governor reviews the strikes of last summer at length, and gives full descrip- tion of the part the military played. The expense to the State of the troops was $35,- 385.95. He takes occasion in this con nec- ton to condemn all mob law, and pays compliment to the State troops. He calls upon the Legislature to suppress boycotting as far as it can, and give better protection to labor. He thinks the creation of board of arbitration would have a tendency to prevent strikes.
 The Governor recommends such legisla- tion as will further protect the ballot box and will throw legal safeguards around primary elections.
 Governor Jones favors the exemption from taxation of manufacturing enter- prises for limited period, provided 1t IS not unconstitutional.
 He recommends change in the punish ment of some misdemeanors. The inn prisonment very often is out of all pro- portion to the offense.
 The total amount, including poll taxes, appropriated for public schools for the scholastic year ending September 30. 1894, was S633, ,519. fl. The number of pupils enrolled was: White, 190, ,3o5; blacks, 115, 709. Teachers-White, 4412; blacks, 2296. In the present condition of affairs 1t will be impossible to increase the appro- pristion from the State, unless it be by means of more efficient provision for the collection of the poll taxes. The State in- stitutions of learning are mentioned, and reference is made to the oyster law, the board of health, railroad commission, de- pertinent of agriculture, soldiers fund, etc.
 The message, as whole, is valuable State paper and does much credit to the statesmanship of the Governor. It is a fitting finale to the wise, able and patri- otic administration of his excellency, Thomas G. Jones.

AND what recordl The police force re- duced to about twelve men on duty at one time, because of wrangle with the Police Commission, when sneak thieves, burglars and murderers were holding high carnivalin Birmingham. aps~the lives and property of citizens were practically unguarded. By the way, Mfr. Warnock was a member of the Police Commission. He did not aid it much, how ever.-Evening News (yesterday).
 But all this happened when the present "unrecognized city Democracy'' was be. ing fully recognized" by the News, and long before it said all these pretty things about the city Democracy, when last March and April it was so gushingly loyal to the erstwhile ''recognized" party. Don't you see?

A STATEMENT has been published to the effect that the government only netted $3S,- 900, 900 from the sale of the $50, ,0OO, ,000 bond issue. This is an error. The government sold the bonds at an equivalent of 3-per cent bonds at par. Perhaps some free sil- yer editor figured it out that if the govern ment had been paid in silver for it's bonds the bullion value of the silver would have amour nted to s38, ,O00, ,OO0. ..

GOVERNOR ELECT OATES, in his add ress to the cotton growers, said the price of Southern cotton was fixed in Liverpool. Of course he did not mean that Liverpool buy CTS had formed a trust and met together and arbitrarily fixed the price of cotton. Such thing could not be possible when there were so many other markets open be- side Liverpool. The price of cotton is reg ulated by the worlds supply and demand, and the Liverpool price is governed by this supply and demand. --,---

AN example of the money that can be made in small crops in the South is found in Maury county, Tennessee. The farmers of that county raised cotton for number of years, but finding it did not pay they turned their attention to wheat. The wheat exhausted the soil, and then they raised mules for the Southern market. Then farmer came down from the Northwest and turned his attention to the growing of Irish potatoes. He accumulated money and soon bought valuable farm. Other farmers fol- lowed his example. Now there is shipped from the station near the farms of Mr. F. ". Dixon and MT. Joseph R. Smith, Jr., of this city 750 cars of potatoes every year.

MosrKsANo, Feb. i6-ISpecial. There
was a meeting of taxpayers of the county
held at the rink In this city Wednesday
night Delegates from nearly every part
of the county were in attendance. Alto
gether more than 100 taxpayers, many Of
them among the heaviest in the county,
took part In the meeting. Speeches were
made by some eight or ten OF those pres
ent, all agreeing that the county assess
ment was too high and that our taxes were
away beyond what they should be. 1t
was the general expression that all pres
ent were more or less to blame for the con-
dition of affairs. though by some the blame
was laid al the door Of the county officers,
charging extrayagance on their part.
Those. however. were men who submitted
no figures to prove their assertions. One
speaker attacked j. W. Bum, the assessor,
as incompetent, and called for his resigua-
ton. A motion TO appoint committee of
twenty-five from the taxpayers OK the
county was carried. and they were selected
as far as possible so to represent sill por-
tons Of the county. or rather that was the
idea. The committee are to meet today to
perfect organization and prepare plans for
n perfect taxpayers organization in this
county, with the intention of correcting
errors IN county management The ex-
preston is unanimous that IL is move in
the right direction, and one which if prop
erly managed will be of great benefit 10
the county. There is strong sentiment
manlfest,ng itself which calls for a reduc-
ton of the salaries of ali county officers.

favorites for bride, or to put the finishing

when the latter has a garniture of similar
lace. A pretty one can be found for 81. rs,
with a narrow border of duchesse lace
and similar pieces let in at the four cor
ners: while for SIS an exquisitely fine
specimen, almost entirely composed of
point, can be procured. The hand
kerchief of silk gauge is usually
pure white or of creamy
hue. but the delicate tints OF pink, yellow.

edge is embroidered in white or coIored
tioss-siiks, and one variety displayed has
