OFFICIAL BONDS MAY RI
GIVEN IN SURETY CON.
NAMES.

The Jackson Miss. Bureau Cor,os
pondent OF the Memphis Commerciol
Appeal Of November %. has the q,
lowing in reference to official bonds.
"rhere seems to be a great deal :,
misapprehension relative to the mai
inEOf official bonds, so far as surat,
companies are concerned, the idea h.
ing that there is no company in n.
State authorized to make such boods
1t was some time after the law Of lso,
passed before any company enterad
the State owing to the clause provid
ing that its sole business should bo
that OF surety. There are few cor,
panies doing business OF that kind o,
clusively, but there are some. and ono
of them is now authorized to transac,
business In Mississippi. This brancu
OF the business is In the Secretary n,
States Office, all the rest of the lnsu,.
ance being in the Auditors otsce
The law authorizes that all orr part of
official bonds may be given in these
surety companies. This is the time
for bOnd-making. There will perhans
be more OF them made In the State BE-.
tween now and January 20 than were
ever made before during one year, AS
every State and county official REQUIRED
to make bond will have to do so be-
fore he enters the Office. There will
be several thousand OF them and IN
consequence there Is much anxiety felt
In some counties II Is reported that 4
good deal Of trouble Is being experj.
enced and that In order to make their
bonds some Of the officials will have tn
place at least portion of the liability
in surety company. AS a matter Of
information 1t may be stated that
surety companies as Il rule charge the
half OF per cent. for the risk. In
special cases where the bond is large
and risk comparatively small special
rates are made"

Judge Williamson introduced a
striking and unique punishment for
youthful crapshooters recently. A
young victim Of the Ethiopian past
time was brought before him on a plea
of guilty of sentence. The judge,
after having the mother brought up,
told her to take the boy out and give
him sound thrashing and he would
turn him loose, which she did to the
satisfaction of Deputy Sheriff Thad
Paris, whom his honor designated to
60 out and see that the punishment
was administered in befittlng man-
ner. Such sentences have more moral
effect than month Un the farm and

LET EVERYBODY CARRY
WEAPONS.

Judge J. A. p. Campbell, who has
seen quarter Of a century on the
Supreme court bench Of Mississippi,
and is admitted to be one Of the great
est jurists Of the country, on the 25th
addressed the following letter to the
Times Democrat
Reading your letter on carrying
concealed weapons, leads me to write
that, after nearly half a century in
active connection with the enforce
ment of laws, my judgement is that
all laws against carrying weapons are
wrong and should be repealed. They
can not be enforced, and for that rea-
son should not exist. They operate
unequally and harmfully, by being a
restraint on those in whose hands the
weapons would be harmless and often
useful. and placing no restraint on
those in whose hands they are dan
gerous and often destructive.
"My view is that all should be free
to carry arms, as they please, and that
every girl be taught to use them
cxpertly. We would hear less of rapes
and burglares, and such crimes that
50 often occur, and there would not
be a crime more by reason of the un-
restrained right to carry arms.
ut would prevent rather than pro-
mote crime. The man disposed to
commit crime is never restrained by
the law against carrying concealed
weapons, while the good citizen often
IS, and is thus placed at dIsadvant-
age, being at the mercy of the villain
who assails him and is emboldened to
do it by the confidence that his VIC
tim is unarmcd.
81. A. p. CAMPBELL"

The Houston Free South contains
this beautiful thought: "Alabaster
boxes should not be sealed up until
our friends are dead. The fragrant
perfumesof sympathy and love should
be given to them before hand for their
burial. Post mortem kindness does
not cheer the burdened soul. Speak
approving words, cheering words
while ears can hear them, and before
it is too late for the hearts of your
friends to be thus thrilled and made
happier by them. The kind things
you mean to say when they are gone,
say before they CO."
