A NEW PHASE ON II.

Recently in looking over the
primary election law of the State,
we came upon provision which
we had hitherto overlooked. 1t
was in section 326o as follows:
"For a State convention at least
fortytwo days notice shall be Civ
en-; for congressional district
convention thirty -si:; days 'notice
shall be given; for any other dis
trict convention, the dist let con-
tanning two or more counties, thir-
ty days notice; and for a county
convention or the convention of
a district of a county, twenty days
notice; and in years in which gen
cral elections are to be held the
convention, or primary meetings
or elections, shall be held on such
date as the executive committee
may fix, between THE FIRST DAY or
JULY AND TIE FIRST DAY OF sEprEM-
BER."
This being the law the recent
suggestion Of The STAR and a
large number of De mocrats that
the Democratic primary be held
in June,if acted upon, would be vi
olation Of Law. But there is very
little difference between the last of
June and the FIRST of July, anyway;
and our committee can order the
primary as early in July as they
wish. z
In view of the law, it will be
seen that the action of the Popu-
lltes in calling county convention
in May was illegal and they will
have to rescind their action or
transgress the law.
The primary election law is a
farce and a fraud, anyway-an i'm
position on the rights of the peo
ple-and the legislator who can
have it repealed or radically modi-
fed will receive the plaudits of the
entire state.

FHY HONEY CONTEST.

The utterances Of such inaueA.
tial Democrats as Bland, Bryan,
Livingston. aHd others to the eject
that they will bolt the action Of the
next national convention il . free
silver man is not nominated for
President, is significant. Equally
significant is the determined stand
taken b. mea Of all parties in the
East in favor OF the present single
gold standard. All this means that
unless the Democrats can agree
among themselves on the money
question and the Republicans do
likewise, there will be a general
breaking up Of the old parties and
a new alignment OF forces before
the next Presidential contest.
However, we are inclined to
think that party affection and party
prejudices will force harmony Of
sentiment and render the severing
OF party ties unnecessary.
In harmonizing the different fac
tons in the Democratic party the
South can play great and honor
able part The West, if it is to be
judged by its representatives in
Congress, stands for Silver mono
while the East is for gold
monometalism-both equally dis
astrous to the industriesof the coun-
try. The South holds the balance
of power between the sections.
Let her exercise her influence for
bimetalism-the use of both gold
and silver coined into equal dollars
on equal terms. This is the only
true solution of the money ques-
ton. Under the operations of laws
this principle the Re-
public flourished greatest in years
gone by.
The South does not want mono
metalism with either gold or silver
as the basis. Let her assert what
we believe to be her natural pref
ence for bimetalism.

IMMIGRATION.

Do the farmers of Attala county
realize that every train that comes
into Mississippi from the North
brings from one to fifty wcll-to-d
Northern farmers who are seeking
a Southern location? Do they
realize that these people are set
Ting down in great numbers in
many localities, everywhere doub-
ling and quadruplins the value of
the farming lands and bringing
more advanced ideas and greater
prosperity to each community?
Such is fact.
And while other counties are
reaching out after such immigrants,
extolling their home places, and
inviting the Northern men to settle
among them Attala county is sit
ting supinely by and letting a gold
en- opportunity slip. What we want
is more farmers to work our sur
plus land. A greater population
will increase all land values. Then
why not strive to get it?
httala county can offer greater
Advantages than any other section
Of the State. Land is plentiful and
cheap, it is fertile, it is we'll water.
ed; We never have a crop failure;
we are subject to neither droughts,
continued rains, nor oyerf1ows; no
epldemics of contagious diseases
ever sweep away our people;
cyclones are unkn own. All we need
to do is to let prespcctors know
these advantages.
The STAR wants to hear from
practical farmers on this subject,

crop is IN that State. IL was set
forth that Eve years ago. tCsaenC
was scarcely raised fof market at
all. but last year Ave million
pounds were raised in oae
county. The average product per
acre was valued at $50 and the
crop was stated to require but little
if any more attention than tobacco.
Other interesting items were given.
The article set us to thinking.
Here was central Mississippi with
q population composed in greater
part of farmers who are bound
down BY peculiar conditions to the
production of cotton. They want
to diversity their crops, but are
prevented BY the fact that we have
no market for anything except cot
ton. Does not tobacco culture offer
loophole Of escape for them'
Tobacco is staple crop. 1t a
buyer is located in community
the crop will bring money any day
as quick as cotton. 1t is a reason
ably certain crop. tits but little If
any more difficult to cultivate than
cotton, and, if all accounts are to
be credited, it is worth much more
per acre. 1t grows to perfection in
this section. If a sufficient amount
is raised buyers would come here
to pay cash for it as soon as offered.
Then why can not our farmers raise
tobacco?
We understand that last year
Col. Landrum, who lives near the
line between Leake and Attala
counties, raised 1900 pounds of
tobacco on an acre of land, and he
sold it out at ten and fifteen cents
a pound. That beats cotton. His
neighbor, Mr.. Smithson, raised a
good quality of the same article.
A large number of farmers raise
tobacco for their own use. In fact,
one would be surprised to know
how many of them understand the
necessaries for it's successful Gull
turc.
Mr.. Green Of Beat .. was in
THE STAR Office the other day and
showed us twist of tobacco he
raised last year which, in color,
odor, and taste, was fully equal to
much of the high-priced product
we buy. He laid down beside it
plug Of ascent bought tobacco and
the odds were altogether in favor
Of the home raised article.
We will be glad to publish
articles from any of our people on
his subject.

NORTH CAROLINA'S SHAME.

Not in the annals of American
history do we remember an act so
disgraccful as that perpetrated by
the Legislature of North Carolina
last week. After resolutions to adj
journ in commemoration of the
birthdays of Washington and Robt
Z. Lee had been voted down. some
member, when the death of Fred
Douglass was announced, arose
with a resolution to adjourn as a
mark of respect to the dead negro.
The decency of the entire country
stood ready to Join with the LcSis-
lature in splitting upon the shamed
head of the man who offered it; but
when, when with Amusement and
disgust it was perceived that the
servilc body had actually adopted
the vile resolution, all were ready
to spit upon the State that had so
disgraccd herself through her rep
resentatlves. Douglass was a
South Halter and villihcr, negro
with white wife, man who op-
posed all that the South stood for
IN her hour of darkest trail, and vet
here was the Legislature of "A
Southern State adjourning out of
respect to his memory. The good
that the old North State has done
III centuries past and the most she
may do in many years to conc will
not atone for the disgrace that
moment saw heapcd upon her.
In the light of politics, the rea-
son for this extraordinary act is
easily seen. The Legislature of
North Carolina is dominated BY
1he union OF Populitcs and Repub-
leans, both OF whom are catering
to the negro vote and together they
carried the resolution against the
protest OF the Democratic members
They outraged decency and dis
srac d their State for the negro
vote, and now it remains to be
seen if this act will not hurl them
into an abyss OF infamy from which
no tricks or fusions can cxtricatc
Them.
People may say that all parties
are equally bad, but can any one
point to an instance where a Dem.
ocratic assembly ever lowered itself
to such depth?
Populitc principles are the same
fhc country over. II the negro we're
a strong factor in Mississippi pol.
tics and the Populites should ever
obtain control, we ourselves might
have cause to hide our heads in
shame. But, thank goodness
Aississippians know the average
too we'll to trust them
with exteAded power.
