Contradiction.

Is it notstrange that Legislative
lody possessed of the practical
wisdom and common sense indica-
ted by its fayoring a textile school,
should be guilty OF the folly of de-
string to hear speech from 4
eharlatan and demagogue, who APP
peals only to ignorance and pre-
fldic0 IN his wordy harangues.

he WaY They All Feel.

The bill proposed by Mr. Catch
ings which was published in eX-
tense last week in the journal is
one which the House Committee
on Rivers and Harbors will report
sometime in the early spring.
The expenditure of s., 100000,
annually, for four years on the
Mississippi levees, would give
effectiveness and assurance to the
system. Mr.. Catchings deserves
we'll of his constituency and all
the riparian inhabitants of the river
country. Conceding, as argued by
our engineers, who ought to know,
that the all levee system is our
only salvation, the appropriations
for this purpose should be IN pro-
portion to the immensity and I'M
pcrtance of the work. Men may
theorize as they please, but levees
we are bound to have-then let
them be as thorough and effective
as possible even if we have to cut
down the pension rolls TO raise the
money. Arkansas City Journal

Our New Postmaster.

Noting the query in one of our
locals, "Who is W. A. Jewell"
l., as an old fri ud, will reply
briefly. Copying .om the His
tory Of Mississippi we find the
Jewell Brothers were natives OF
Ohio, that the family Is a distin-
guished one, although modest in
demeanor The father, Alexander
W. Jewell, was the founder of
the Hubbard Banking Co., of
hubbard, Ohio, and president Of
the same for score of years as
manager. On his death the eldest
brother, Hobert Jewell. was elect
ed apd filled the place of his
father as president of the bank
until his death Il few years ago.
Since tht death of Hobert Jewell
the bank still conducted by the
family. Judge Jewell, who died
q few months since at the north
was a brainy man and a manly
man, who cotasated among his
friends many who stand zen IN
the annals of the country, while
the poor man was no less his
friend. 1t is rumored in the
county, Jhat had Judge Jewell
lived he would have occupied no
small place in the next administra-
tion. In fact, | have been told
on authority, that he would have
been appointed on the River Com
mission, or given a permanent
place in the Interior department
at Washington, d. c. The brothers
have been closely united for many
their business relations. In
w. A, Jewell is a gentleman of the
old school. Educated at the best |
schools in Ohio, and finishing his
education at Washington and JEFF
ferson College, he is fully equip |
ped to fill u responsible position
in the business world and also the |
political. He has not been given |
to politics very much; although
deeply interested in his parN's |
movements. he has been for the |
most part a quiet observer. Mr..
Jewell, until Il few months since,
was at the head Of the Greenyille
Electric Light system. On tnc
death Of his brother, he returned
% plantation life of which he was
llways fond. Mr.. Jewell will
make most efficient postmaster if
n his multiplicity of duties he ac-
'epts Of the office given as a com
)liment from the President.
Very truly, yours
A FRIEND.

lnnocuOus,

The bugaboo that our brother
editors have been inveighing
aga inst for some time has come to
jackson and departed without
doing any harm whatever. The
Mormons rented the opera house,
preached sermons that any protest
ant divine would commend and
then left. If they are teaching
polygamy, they do not do It in
public. There was little differ
ence in their services from those
of the ordinary evangelical de-
nominations. jackson News.

"A postgraduate course in naval con-
struction has been recently instituted and
is now in successful operation al the acad
eny, and courses in marine engineering, in
ordnance and gunnery, and in electrical en-
gineering, might now be readily added.
Our first and chief recommendation,
therefore, is that in some way, and pref
eraply by postgraduate course, more
time should be allowed for the instruction
| of young naval officers.
In general, your committee approves of
the made of the time now allotted for
instruction, and finds all departments we'll
conducted and, upon the whole, fairly
equipped. We recommend, however, that
the cadet practice cruiser Bancroft be re-
| turned to the academy as soon as it can be
spared, and especially that the academy be
furnished with model of each of the
types of warshiDs. And suggest that
the time has perhaps arrived when Spanish
should be introduced as a compulsory study
for all cadets.
I'VE recommend that the maximum age
of admission be reduced, and that all cadets
should be nominated by July 1 and admit
ted in May following, recommendations
which have been made in substance by sew
eral preceding boards"
The committee on grounds and buildings
reports that the grounds are in excellent
condition, but calls attention to the anti
quated character of many of the buildings.
Discipline and Drill.
The report of the committee on discipline
and drill says:
I'VE are well pleased with the discipline
and administration in SO fa. as we have
been able to observe. The discipline Is eX-
ceedinRly severe, but, in the opinion of your
committee, none too severe for an institu-
ton designed to produce officers competent
to command modern battle ship. To this
rigid discipline we are largely indebted for
the DEVELOPMENT of those superb qualities
which distinguish the American sailor, and
which enabled him to aStonish the world by
his operations in Manila bay. The fine
bearing and ply sique of the cadets furnish
ample proof of the excellent results obtain
ed in the department of physical culture.
The gymnasium is in fine condition. and
appears to be equipped with all the neces-
Sary appliances"

CUBAN WAIF.

Board of Guardians.
The board of children's guardians got its
first Cuban charge, a boy aged nine years,
this morning and the superintendent of
charities, Herbert w. Lewis, Agent Park
man and Chief Clerk Douglas are taking
more than usual interest in the little un-
fortunate. The child, whose name Is Jose
Eulofio, was found wandering about the
B. and o. station and was taken In charge
by Acting Lieutenant Lombardy of the
sixth precinct. He can speak no English,
but fortunately the sergeant was able to
interpret what he said The boy told Lieut..
Lombardy that his parents had been starved
to death near Santiago (of which province
he was a native) before the arrival of the
Americans. After the Americans got pos
session Jose by some means got into the
camp of the United States army and a
Lieut.. Murphy took an interest in him.
When the American troops went to Mon
tauk from Santiago Lieut.. Murphy took the
boy with him, but soon after reaching
Camp Wikon he received a furough and
went home without telling the boy where
he lived The little fellow heard that his
although he had no money, ne boarded
the train at Montauk with some soldiers,
