Hon. II. ID. Money, who has been
elected to the Senate from Mississippi,
will not take his seat until 1899. The
reason he was elected SO long ahead of
the time of the beginning of the term
is that under the new constitution of
the State of Mississippi the Legislature
will meet only once every four years.
The next session of the Legislature
will be held in 1899.

The Hon. Marion Butler, the End

New York Sun, was overcome by emo

that for whole day he must deprive
the Senate and the country of his daily

until strong convulsion came. At mid

faint, and had to he carried away on an

PENSIONS COMING SOUTH.

The recent movement of Northern
veterans coming to the South, which
has become so great as to attract wide
spread attention, makes it probable
that the day is not far distant when n
large per cent of the pension money
paid out by the Government will be
distributed in the Southern States.
The Savannah Morning News esti-
mates that at least third, and perhaps
half of it will be sent to this section.
1t is estimated that at present about
S7,50o,0OO of federal pension money is
paid out in the South annually, and
it is estimated that $15,000,000 will
be paid out next year. If this esti-
mate is anywhere near the truth it
affords good ground for saying that at
least one-third of the pension money
will come South.
The reason for this remarkable con
dition of affairs is that the old soldiers
living in the North, suffering from
wounds received and diseases con-
tracted during the war, are anxious to
pass their declining years in a milder
climate where they think they may
live longer and enjoy better health.

at any previous year on the 1st Of Janu-
ary. Considerable grain was sown early
in December, but for some weeks past
ranchmen are simply putting their land in
shape, as in the event of continued drouth
the barley would be worth more in the
sack than in the ground. Should there be
good rains any time this month, there
would be very large surface sown. there
Deing much new land turned over. While it
Is not yet late in the season, there will be
the usual feeling of unrest until the rains
come.
