Washington, Oct. 24.-(By Associated

TO do anything to relieve the monetary
stringency, believing that the heavy
war expenses will, in due course, re
duce the treasury surplus. 1t was de-
cided TO allow vessels purchased by
american citizens to engage in the
Philippine inter-island trade.

BLESSING In DISGUISE.
DIR. Wyman Declares The Cold wave
of Much Benefit
To The Eradication of yellow and All
Fever Germs.

Viewed from a hygenic stand
point in its effects on the yellow
fever germs, the freeze IN the
South IS a blessing to the people
of that section, according toe DR..
Wyman. the surgeon general of
the marine hospital corps, says q
dispatch from Washington.
''It is just what we wanted,' he
said tonight (Monday) IN speak
ing on the subject, land | believe
it will be productive of great good
in stamping out the germs that
NAV exist after the very thorough
work which has been done by the
State and Government officials. in
eradicating the vestiges left of
last summers epidemic. 1t GER
tainly is blessing to the people
of the South as far as next sum"
mer is concerned -
DR.. Wyman went on to explain
that New Orleans had been the
main objective point towards
which the government marine hos
pital corps had been concentrated
to kill the disease. There the To-
cal and national officials had joint
ly conducted the labor of disln-
fecting all suspicious places. 1t
was just about completed, and the
cold weather, DR.. Wyman says,
will clinch the efforts Of the au-
thorities.

FREAKS IN THE LEGISLATURE.

Many of the State papers are
urging most earnestly the neces-
sity of electing good men, active
and alive to the call of their
duty, to Office. This is true, and
in the Sea Coast counties more
particular as to representative.
Our legislative sittings Of late
years have incurred more mischief
to the State and jeopardized some
of its most potent interests than
any agency for supposed good
could err, and this year should
prove an exception to sending
''any old thing" to iabber at Jack
son-on .the-Pearl. Too many Pu-
rltanical spirits, hayseeds, prohi-
bition extremists and religio-
cranks have been sent to the capi-
tai to draw salary for naught. We
do not doubt the sincerity of their
motiyes-that' s the trouble-when
there they become neutral in the
thought of home and lost in the
eXuuDTduC6 Ot tut-T tuUu uSldSLn
to whet their moral whIms and air
their long-pent up faneies. Ifnot
from this then from another
source accrues a menacing domi-
nant pervading the legislative
hall, which, like the religio-crank,
foregoes the practical, and that is
the "legal light" Mr.. Jaybird, of
Shysterville, Snodgrass county,
who sees only the luminary of his
own being in the mirror of con-
ceit and defeats or antagonizes a
good measure to secure the sue
cess of his hobby emanating from
barren brain. The man to send
to the Legislature cannot be too
cautiously chhsen; he must not be
selected on the treacherous
strength or friendship or social
popularity, neither must he be Sc
iected to satisfy prejudices against
a man intelligently acquainted
with the situation and capable to
administer his services.

WINTER IN THE SOUTH.
A SIEGE OF COLD AND SNOW UN-
PRECEDENTED
Envelopes the South, The Hercury
Falling II Below Zero at One Place.
Severest Weather Known For q
Long Time.

The proverbial sunny cline OF
the South-the land of perpetual
sunshine and flowers, of milk and
honey-received a terrible blow
this week at the hands of Boreas,
who, with mantle of snow hedeck-
ed and icicle fringed, held car
nival of cold, breaking records
and startling even that much
quoted authority 1.-THE oldest in
habitant.
Late Saturday night sleet pre-
vailed way into the early hours of
Sunday morning, when the fall
of "the beautiful" silvered house
tops, "the streets, hillsides and
country lanes" And how it snow
ed! Far into Florida and the ex-
treme South the tiny flakes tum-
bled till the whole land was coat
ed. The temperature, too. took
a decided tumble, registering at
0 and below that in many places
where the jonquil and rose had
accepted somewhat prematurely
Springs invitation.
There is not so far an accurate
estimate at hand of the damages
wrought by the freeze, but it is safe
to say that all early gardens have
perished and fruit trees and priz-
ed plants have shared the same
fate. Below are given reports of
the cold from various points,
showing its itensitv and extent,
which information is cleaned from
the dispatches of the daily press.
Farmerville, La, boasted of five
inches of snow and registered )
above 0.
Gibsland, La, tried to compete
with Klondyke, showing record
of 16 below 0.
Scranton's mercury tumbled 2
degrees below zero.
The bay between Ocean Springs
and Deer Island was frozen over,
the ice being six inches thick.
A minimum temperature of Z
below 0 was reported from Nc
Comb City.
Morgan City, La, had snow 3
inches, with the thermometer z
degrees above 0; vegetation and
orange trees killed.
Shreveport went five degrees
below zero. Vegetation is dead
so are the microbes.
At Natchez the Mississippi was
frozen over, the floating ice en-
dangering the safety of boats.
Bayou Terrebonne supported
three inches of ice.
Coal oil in lamps froze at Mad
ison, this State. Thermometer
comment unnecessary.
Here is another record-breaker.
For the first time in twenty-five
years Lake Providence: In Louis
lana, was frozen over.
Woodville felt somewhat chilly
herself, with 3 below 0.
Pass Christian recorded 2 above
0, and the "oldest inhabitant" is
again surprised.
Baton Rouge has no records of
a more severe cold.

inelep ndent of each other, ant
cocqual; and many statesmen OBJ
ject to the power of filling judge
ships by appointment of the Exc
cutiye. as tending to endanger thi'
equality and independence which
is so necessary to the preservation
of our liberties. For myself | in
dorse this view, and therefore fa'
vor an election of the judges BY
the people. [ have never been
able to understand why the vot-
ers, who select governor who
does the appointing. cannot select
lfhe judges themselves, and do il
quite as we'll as their agent.
The election of judges Is no un-
tried experiment in Mississippi,
and | submit that the judges for
merly chosen by the people at
the polls compare favorably with
those appointed under the present
system.
In my judgment the Governor
ought not to possess this power,
and | hope that he will be depriv-
ed of it by the adoption of the
proposed constitutional amend
ment making the judges elective.
The pardoning power Is also
vested in the executive depart
si1lent and is a most important one.
Ms object is evidently to provide
acorrective a for the harshness that
sometimes. results from strict
enforcement of the criminal laws,
an equitable power. as it were, and
not to offer means of escape
from the just punishment for
crimes committed. The object
of criminal law is the prevention
of crime, not the punishment of
the criminal, and this object Is
necessarily defeated, in, a measure
at least, by its too frequent exer-
else in favor of criminals Of wealth
and influence.
When an offender has been
found guilty by a jury of his peers,
and sentenced by a court of COM
petent jurisdiction, this sentence
should only be set aside where
strong equities demand the inter-
position of executive clemency.
Like the veto power, the effect
of its exercise is to override the
solemn action of a coordinate de-
partment of the State Governor,
and it should be invoked with
great caution and hesitaney.
The Governor is exofficio a trus-
tee of many State institutions,
and the duties of these positions
are not designed to be discharged
in merely perfunctory manner.
By a careful and conscientious
discharge of the duties appertain-
ing to these trusts, he can do
much to secure the proper and
economical administration of
those institutions.
| may add, without vanity, that
I have been able, during service
of twelve years in the legislature,
to make wholesome impress upon
the laws of the State, organic and
to which | invite atten-
ton, Thanking yourselves and
other friends 'fo1 your kind indor-
sement, | am yours truly,
