Probably a Peaceful Settlement.

The Government is certainly put
ting the naval defense Of the country
in good fighting trim. Congress has
appropriated $50, 900, 900 to be used for
that purpose at the discretion Of Pres
ident Mckinley. 1t is evident that
Congress has its war paint on, as the
vote On the appropriation Tuesday
was 81 registered In the House and
not a single n against it. This is
the proper thing, to be prepared in the
event of war with Spain, but the court
of inquiry is still in session, conse-
Quently no action will be taken by
our Government until the report Of the
court is made officially to the Secre'
tary OF War, then the President and
Cabinet will take up the matter and
decide what course the Government
will pursue in regard to the destruc'
tion of the Maine. Up to the hour of
going to press this Thursday evening
things don't look as war-like as or

DEFEAT OF THE LOUD BILL.

The ~vlllianous Loud bill, relative to
postage On second-class mail matter,
which passed the House in the last
Congress, and which it was thought
would go through again, on Thursday,
the 3rd instant, met with a crushing
defeat, much to the disappointment
of a few supporters, who hoped to cor.
rect the gross abushes Of The law and
TO relieve the postal service Of an
enormous burden. 1t seems that the
influence OF the country newspapers
on the members from the rural dis
tricts seemed to outweigh all Other
considerations. Representative Ogden
OF Louisiana was a warm advocate o.
the Loud bill, and worked hard t
secure its passage. He is from a rura
district, and we hope the rural press
will roast his hide for trying to injurt
and almost destroy the country week
lies of his section as well as all ovel
the country. We hope we will nevel
hear Of Loud and bis infamous bill
any more.

THE pAsOAGOULA CUSTOM HOUSE

Washington dispatches announce
the fact that a delegation OF Missis-
sippians have recently been in Wash
ington for the purpose OF urging on
Congress the necessity OF deepening
the channel connecting the Gulf with
Horn Island which is the nearest
large vessel anchorage to the Port OF
Pascagoula. This committee had an-
other object in view which is not made
public, and which is, to make a des-
perate effort to get the custom house
changed from Pascag0ula to Scranton
where it has been ever since the fever
caused its temporary removal last fall.
| There is not a shipmaster, or anyone
interested In the matter OF business
| with this custom house, who does not
deplOre this desire OF changing the
| custom house from convenient point
to an Out-0f-the- way and inconvcnient
to everybody connected with shipping.
The object Of this change Is purely a
selfish one of the inhabitants Uf Scran.
ton, they desiring to brine the ship
masters and those doing business with
the custom house from the sea coast
up to that place where they will natur'
ally leave a little change every time
they visit It. This is all there is to II
and we hardly think the Secretary OF
the Treasury will be influenced into
recommending this very undesirable
change to Congress. 1t is only a few
days ago that a four-masted schooner
owner called on the Marine journal
and entered his protest against this
measure and asked US to use our in'
huence to prevent the change from
being made. We have communicated
with the Secretary Of the Treasury
and believe that he will give our re
quest not only serious but favorable
action.
New York Marine Journal.
The editor of the Marine Journal Is
talking through his hat. In the first
place he is misinformed as to the lOca'
tion Of Scranton, which by the way is
properly speaking a part of Pascagou'
la and happens to be the business cen.
ter OF the large lumber interests OF
jackson county, situate only one mile
from the Gulf where Pascagoula lies
in name only. About the delegation
going to Washington, their mission
was purely in the interest for deep
water for Horn Island Harbor and
the Pascagoula river. Finally every
master of vessels coming to this port
find Scranton a more convenient point
to transact their business. These are
facts in the matter, and we would re
spectfully ask the publishers Of the
Marine Journal to mind their Owr
business and to remember that thu
people of Mississippi are capable o
attending to theirs.
