CANTON.

From what we have heard re-
Gently coming from parties who
have been personally cognizant of
the facts Canton is more pros
porous and alive with business
than any other town in Cen
trail Mississippi, even including
those of much greater preten-
tons on proportions. Now this
is indeed gratifying and reflects
great credit upon our people both
in the city and surrounding
country, the former for their en-
terprise and the latter for the
ability and inclination to sustain
that enterprise. We had recent
occasion to refer to the character
of of our citizenship in its various
types and our views to some may
have seemed somewhat extrava-
CANT but we have not only moth
ing to retract but reiterate the
statement. No town in the world
holds a more generally advanced,
intelligent, honest, law-abiding
people. We haven't a single
wild and woolly" character in
our midst. Our people are liberal
charitable, and stand by one an
other and believe in sustaining
home people & home enterprises.

There is no just reason, says that
enlightened, able and patriotic Demo-
cratic journal. the Philadelphia
Record, to deter either the Republican
or the Democratic party from putting
in nomination a Southern man for the
Presidency. The make and manner of
the man will be everything. The To-
cality in which he lives will have no
proper bearing. David B. Hill well
says: "Any policy which seeks to de-
base an otherwise acceptable candi-
date, simply by reason of the section
of the country wherein he resides, is
unpatriotic, unwise aud un-American,
and am opposed to it. This is no time
for the toleration of sectional preju-
,iices, jealousies and animosities. The
existing political conditions demand
that the party should have the whole
country to choose from. Let there be
a free field, fair contest, and may the
best man win."-Daily States.

DR.. Rothrock, of the Pennsylva-
MIA forestry commission, thinks it
an Outrage that while man under
our laws cannot set fire to a hem
coop without severe punishment,
he may carelessly or willfully set
fire to forest and burn up many
thousand dollars worth of pro-
perty without being molested.
Pennsylvania loses 81 900 900
annually through forest fires, and
$50 900 900 would not cover the
annual loss to the country from
- this cause. 1t is found in many
cases that when q man is pursued
by one holding a mortgage on his
woodland he sets fire to it to
spite the man who forecloses. II
is very difficult to convict such a
man.
Carelessness and ignorance are
responsible for many fires, yet
thousands of dollars worth are
burned every year from these
causes without anybody's ever be-
ing punished.
Why one kind of property can
be burned up with impunity
when other kinds are protected
by the severest fines, is one of the
curiosities of legal administration
that is beginning to be looked
after none too early.-Bostor

Excitement runs high at Baracoa. Gn.i
the majority OF tile residents of that
place seem to syMimtllzc with the in.
.arsea!s. The large number TINT
were landed on the British schooner
which foundcrcd before her name
could be learned, and made their cs-
cape after hot fight with the Span-
tsh soldiers, fifteen Of whom were
dangerously wounded and are In the
hospital. This occurred on April i.
but up to the time the Spero left.

proceeding overland to III Col,rc. out
side of Santiago, the scene of most or
the fnsurrcctfon. The condition of af-
fairs In Baracoa. which il the center
Of nearly all the banana plantations
OF Northern Cuba, is assuming serious
shape, and nearly all the laborcrs are
being pressed into the service of the
revolution army. Over 100 men caye
up work the day the Spero left ana
Joined the ranks of the insurgents.
The harbor Of Baracoa is being
watched by the Spanish gunboat rs.

troops from the insurgent forces at
that point will probably be prevented.
One Of the Spcro's passengers said
that the shooting Of the English cap
tain was an accident, as it happened
while hc was being taken to Jail by
the Spanish soldiers. He was shot
through the head and instantly killed.
No one in Baracoa seemed to know
his name nor the name Of the vessel
he commanded. The soldiers who
were on board have all been cast into
the dungeons and are being closely
guarded.
