III is our opinion that the State and
Interstate Railroad Commissions are
an expensive sinicure, not commensu-
rate with the benefit derived. The
State commission has no jurisdiction
beyond the State limits and can oniy
effect local freights, and the Interstate
commission does not control through
freights. consequently the people find
no relief from either worth anything.
If a State or Congress has the power
to permit or create such organized au-
thority for the ostensible purpose OF
regulating public carriers, they un-
doubtedly would have the right to
prescribe freight rates on all classified
articles by the mile just as passenger
charges are now fixed. This seems to
us to be. unquestionably. the shortest,
most effective and economical way to
adjust such matters. What will the
people do?

ED. TIMEs:-One of your rural sub
scribers begs the space to congratulat tie
you as the publisher of the best paper
circulated in Madison county since he
adopted Mississippi as his home more
than thirty years ago, and to wish you
God-speed in your noble efforts to am
our county. Its pages should be read
by every farmer in the state and he
will find single editorial on farm
topics worth, in good advice and en-
couragement, many times the price of
subscription.
When yon attribute the most of our
present troubles to the over production
of cotton to the neglect of other farm
products, and to a want of energy ard
economy on our part, you shit the nail
on the head;' and the bold and fear
less manner in which you lay the whip
on the shoulders of the lazy and shift
less son-of-agun, must necessarily
teach them lesson which will result
in their everlasting good. AS you well
have said, the man who expects to ''get
there" in these times, must make up
his mind to ''get up in the morning by
the breako-day" and strike till the sun
goes down or he will soon be left out
of the procession entirely.
But while your ideas as to the causes
of our poverty and discomfort cannot

with you most emphatically when you
touch on the financial question, or
rather when you leave the farm and |
jump into the political arena We of
the hayseed fraternity would like for
you to explain the difference between
the free coinage of silver and what you |
are pleased to term tsound cur
rency," or in other words, if silver was
good money up to 1873, why it has so
lost its virtue ia 1894? We
believe that the "dollar of our daddies"

to what extent religious fanatacism

struction of the Buddhist religion in

The Chinese hate their usurping Tar

their national beliefs. We do not be-
