Wednesday afternoon Grant McKin-
ley, the stalwart teamster for Bill Ross
was driving his team in front Of Doak
& Wolfe's store when the wagon struck
a plank on the corner Of the walk
The wagon tilted and he was thrown
out, together with barrel Of rice
which landed on top Of him. A box of
meat weighing four hundred an ninety
pounds also fell out and settled upon
him striking him on the head. The
hapless driver remained in a comatose
state about twenty minutes, stunned by
the blow and to all appearances dead
as mackerel. He then revived and
quickly rallied, apparently none the
worse off for a mishap that would have
killed a Government mule.

gloomy series Of events for the month
Of May. As their are some credulous
innocents who pin their faith to the

edited in learning that during the
fateful month we will hear Of serious
conflicts, in Spain especially and pro-
baby the overthrow Of the ruling
dynasty. Ia the United State there
will be much sickness and schools will
be closed on that account. London
will be excited with unheard Of acci-

p Canvassers for pictures, some paint~

the rounds of the town seeking custom
among our housekeepers who are not
loath to add to the decorations Of their
homes. But it must he said that the
samples OF art too often exhibited are
rather shabby specimens. The can
vassers will doubtless realize before
they are through, that the impression
too often entertained, that anything
is good enough for people in the coun-
try in the way Of ornament, is as de-
lusive as it is presumptuous.

Some Legislative Thoughts.


GRAYsPoRT, MISS, May 2, 1899.
EDITOR GRENADA SENTINEL:
Deor Sir-The end and aim of all leg
islation should be for the good of the
people. 1t is we'll to consider and give
expression to our thoughts as far as we
can at present do so. OF the Legislation,
general and special, that is likely to
benefit the masses. In the first place,
I believe there is too much legislation
demanded. You can rarely get three
men tcgether-farmers, lawyers. doc
tors, merchants. or what not-but each
party is ready to suggest, and often in
sist, that this or that law should be
passed or amended; and so it goes, ad
intinitun1. While l admit that valuable
changes can and ought to be made, both
by enacting and repeating, our statute
is already numbered with many useless
and impractical laws, that should be
wiped from its face, and make and en-
force only such laws as sound judgment
and common sense dictates. If we were
all as much Interested in the making
of good laws, as we are in building our
political structure Or booming this or
that candidate for place or position if
the same interest were manifested in
our material prosperity, there would
be no difficulty in arriving at and for
mulating line OF legislation that
wonld result in much good to the va
ried interests of our State and county.
We send man TO reDresent US in the
State legislature, and the thought OF
indicating to him what you would like
| to have done. or undone, never enters
your head. That officer is a public SER
want. elected to subserve the wishes of
his constituents. 1t is the duty of the
thoughtful, progressive men of the
county to confer with their representa-
tive and aid him in all matters OF legis-
lation pertaining to the welfare of our
county. In general legislation it is his
business to know what is doing; for he
will be there; but in matters of local
interest, how is he to know unless he is
informed by his constituents? If a far
mer, lawyer or any business man or
corporation desires certain bill intro
duced, it is an easy thing to drop him
a line telling him just what you want,
and give him all the points favorable
to the passage of the bill, but don't
wait till he comes home, and then give
him fits for not looking after such and
such local matters. How is he 10 know
what you want unless he is informed,
1t is the glory of the true govern
ment that guards the rights of the ig-
noraut and the weak. Personal liberty
is the source of all progress, the lever
of all conquests, inspiration OF all
achievements, the jewel of all ages.
To be endowed with the privilege of
working with the majority for the pur-
pose Of destroying bad and inhuman
laws, and to assist in making better and
improved laws, that we may help the
weak brother to stand, and encourage
those who have no helper on to bright
er days and higher achievements,
should be the chief aim OF all govern
ments and legislators.
YOURS FOR THE RIGHT.
