The Picayune enters Mississippi on the
day Of its publication every morning, be-
fore o'clock, and traverses its territory
in numerous directions before nightfall.
Mississippi is thus supplied with a great
metropolitan newspaper, containing reports
of interest from every part of the world.
AT the same time, 1t gives to the people
of Mississippi, besides the news of their
own state, special timely comment on
everything of interest to them, so that, to
all intents and purposes, the Picayune has
become a Mississippi newspaper, without
abating any of its metropolitan character.
The Sunday Picayune is popular because
it is peerless.
The Weekly Picayune is necessary to
every wel-conducted household, and con-

Don't Want One.

There has been bill introduced in the
State L gislature providing for a state
bank examiner. Toe following from the
Lincoln Nebraska News is timely:
II there is useless and expensive luxu-
ry existing in this stals by virtue of the
statute, it is 'he state banking board and
bank examiners, and the members of the
next legislature owe it 10 themselves and
the citizens of The state TO see to it that the
Law creainx the state banking board and
providing for the appointment of state
bank examiners, be reoealed.
We defy any one to show where the bank
examiners have ever taken any action that
resulted in any benefit TO the depositoTs or
creditors of any bank ia the state. On the
contrary, we ssaert and are able to prove
that every bank that has failed in the sta'e
Of Nebraska in the past year, has paid q
very small proportion of its liabilities, and
that the examinations made by the bank
examiners have been of no benefit to The
depositors or creditors OF any bank in ihe
ate, and that the cnly person or persons
that have been benefited by The present
law, relating 10 banks, SO far as the crea-
ton of the banking board and bank exam
irers is concerned are the people who have
occupied the Offices created by the act.

A tariff higher than The cost of the labor

ask. If labor in other counties could be
performed for nothing and it cost nothing
to transport goods across the ocean, even
then We would be on an equal footing; but
OF course labor costs money anywhere aud
transportation Is always high enough. As
labor on an average Is less than % per cent
of the value of the product amy tariff above

foster monopoly and trusts. The average
duty is several times that. The manu-
facturer OF goods on which there is daty
of only 20 per cent simply fabrieates II he
declares that he must shut down on account
Of low tariff. and that his business is be-
