OF MUCH IMPORTANCE.

A great deal OF Importance IS
attached to the Office of represen-
tative from Hancock county to
the State Legislature this coming
session. While the coast is under
Mississippi jurisdiction, belonging
as the southern portion of the
State, and all laws applicable,
this country labors and progresses
apart from all that is Mississippi,
hence State legislation that is ap-
propriated for the general COM
monwealth misfits the coast so
i'll that more harm than the in
tended good is the result. But
since the coast here does belong
to Mississippi some remedy such
as special legislation must be ef-
fected. and the duty of this is
specially involved upon the next
representatives. Bay st. Louis $
needs some special attention in
this direction, and when its peo-
pie will help Hancock to elect the
next representative, this point
must be taken into consideration.
We must not send a man who
gets drunk, but one who is not a
prohibitionists and uses religion
as an impenetrable cloak.
The State collects from the
public carriages and other vehi-
cles one half more of taxes than
the city is permitted or limited to
collect, and the streets upon
which these vehicles ply, are kept
in good order and repair by the
city. The only remedy and fair
way would be to vice versa this.
Another desired change which
is being much discussed and the
subject agitated arises from the
incOnvenient time set for the col
lection of taxes when the dull
season is with us and money
scarce. The idea projected is to
make the collections legal during
the summer time. The time as
now is suitable for the State
where cotton is grown and private
funds accumulate at the time,
but the coast is unlike Mississippi
thus the trouble.
Quite anumber of other defects
exist which can only be remedied
by the voters sending a right kind
OF man to represent them. Seek
your home issues, and don't
bother about the money question
"a hobby upon which politicians
are riding into office.
