CURRENT TOPICS

The Philadelphia Ledger says:
THE main point about the Georgia
Sunday-school which IS denounced by the
people of the vicinage as "a vile NUS
anoe." because white and black children
are taught together there. is that it has
been started in a small community Of
Northern white people who have settled
I'm Georgia. 1t shows what IT, people of
at least some sections OF the South think
of Northern ideas. and how much en-
couragement there is for Northern peo-
pie to settle among them
The most charitable construction 20 be
nut upon an such stun az this. appearing
in the Northern papers. is that the edi-
tors don't know what they are talking
about. II the South should tolerate mixed
schools. il would not be long before no,
decent family from the North or any
where else would come into the South to
live. The only salvation for the South
is TO keep the races separate. whenever
they begin TO mix then will be the be-
ginning of trouble.

INDICTED FOR MANsLAUG'
TER. n

The Greensburg Echo says:
The grand jury which lately
closed a session at Clinton, East
Feliciana parish, returned in
diotments against Doctors Sou
chon and Kohnke, OF the State
Board Of Health charging them
, with manslaughter for failing to
prevent the death OF citizens Of
that parish by yellow fever which
lately prevailed in that parish.
No conviction can or will ever be
had on these bills, but as tho
boy said who was chasing the
woodpeclser from one mulberry
tree to another, "they will worry
them like smoke. - Following
is an extract taken from report
OF the grand jury:
We have devoted considerable
time to the consideration OF pub
! lie health--more especially TO the
introduction Of J elbow fever into
the parish during the summer OF
1898, which was Il cause of un-
told loss and suffering ID our
/ people, in that the farmers and
planters Of the parish were una
able to market their produce and
provide the necessities OF life for
their families; that large amounts
were expended from the public
treasures for quarantine pur-
poses; that our people were forc-
ed to spend largely OF their pri-
/ vate funds for the expenses incl
dental to sickness and death.
that liyee were wined by the eff,
fects OF yellow fever on many OF
our citizens, leaving them rhys-
ically wrecked; ard lastly, In
J tnat many lives, valuable to this
community and state and dear to
, our people, were sacrificed; in
that women were made widows,
children were made orphans,
and homes made desolate by the
Invasion Of this dreaded disease
into our midst.

are convinced that this state ofiaf-
fairs was brought about BY will

mination on the part Of the STATE

sacred duties Of It's Office, and

rounding country, to the COM
! mercial interest OF New Orleans.

to the p ople Of the state Of Mis-
sissippl. Williams contended that
this portion OF the Mississippi /
constitution was violative OF the
fourteenth amendment 10 the con-
stitution of the United States,
inasmuch as it was scheme to
bridge the rights OF negro electors,
thus preventing them from getting
on juries, and thus denying the
negro "the equal protection Of
the laws. = IL was also alleged
that the suffrage portion OF that
instrumentwas a plan ''to abridge
him OF his rights and immunities
as a citizen Of the United States,
the extraordinary discretion given
to managers Of elections in pass
ing upon the qualifications Of
voters being plainly with that end
in view. The Governor appointed
Hon. G. b. Mitchell Of Pontotoc
as special attorney to argue this
case before the United States SUI
preme court, in Wow of its i'm
portance. In his message to the
Legislature OF 1898, Gov. McLau-
rim made especial mention of the
Williams case in connection with
the above appointment. Accor-
ding to that message, the case
affected not only the suffrage por-
ton, but the whole constit1tion of
the state.

States supreme court in the Will
liams case in 1898 has fixed the
present constitution ofMississippi

THE CANDIDATES FOR Gov
ERNOR.

None of the candidates for gov
ernor, says the Jackson CORES
pondent OF the New Orleans Pic
ayune, are political tyros.
Longino has been a state sena-
tor, federal district attorney, and
is now an honored chancellor,
keeping the ermine as chaste and
pure as the first opening lilac,
when it spreads Its clear leaves
to the sweetest dawn of May.
Powell has been a presidential
elector for the state at large. a
member of the legisl ature, and as
circuit judge of the great district
composed of Madison, Yazoo,
Kinds, Copiah and Lincoln, has
shown himself an able and fear
less. conscientious judge, putting
duty over friendship or self-seek-
ing. MCCo)l has served three
terms in the legislature, and now
fills the honorable position OF
speaker of the house Of represent
tatives, which shows that he has
been repeatedly honored by his
own countymen, and that his
colleagues held him in the high
est esteem by clecting him TO the
speakership. Critz has worthily
worn the ermine. having been
chancellor of his district for two
terms, and has been several times
a member of the house. Varda-
man has been member of the
legislature twice, q presidential
elector for the state at large, and
was elected speaker OF the house
when Street resigned in 1894. and
presided at the short session Of
the legislature with grace and
dignity. He is now a major in
the Fifth Immunes, stationed at
Santiagoa. Montgomery hasserv-
ed in both houses of the legisla-
ture, and vas the dashing colonel
of the Second Mississippi. Jones
has served for twelve years in the
Legislature, being member Of
both houses, was delegate from
the state at large to the coHstitu-
tional convention, and is at pres
ent the lieutenant governor of the
state.

NUcLEIN CURE FOR TY-
PHOID FEVER.

Philadelphia is, confessedly,
the hot-bed Of typhoid fever, and
this, says the New Orleans States,
because Of its impure water sup
ply. A few years ago Dr.. John
Aulde in the pages OF the New
York Medical Journal expounded
a new process Of treatment Of the
disease the virtue Of which has
beeL since proven by experiments
OF surgeons in some Of the army
camps. The remedy Is q copper
arsenite and nuclein solution, in
speaking Of which the Record has
the following comment that will
be understood by the faculty how
ever the technical terms employed
may confuse the layman.
Before stating the results Of
these experimental cases alluded
to it may be well to recall the cen
trail significance Of this new en-
edy. Both typhoid fever and ma
laria are diseases in which there
is an absence Of Iucoeytosis; that
is to say. the polynuclear white
blood corpuscles fail to perform
their proper function as scayen-
gers Of the vascular system, ow-
ing to the lack of nuclein, their
proper nutrition. DR.. Auld 8
conception has been 10 introduce
an artificially prepared nuclein,
thereby revitalizing the exhaust
cd lucocytes and rendering the
human blood system disease des-
troying, as in a state of health.
As for the rest Of this proposed
remedy, as he himself remarks:
The physiological basis OF medi-
cation by copper arsenite is too
well known, and the brilliant elm
ical successes attending its en-
ployment too long established, to
require further elaboration as a
factor in the treatment Of typhoid
fever

AN ORIGINAL PLAY.
UNIQUE CONTRIBUTION BY THE
NEW ORLEANS PRESS
CLUB.
Has Been Written and VIII Ee
Played by New orIeanians.
New orIeans, March 81.

New Orleans, March %.
The initial feature Of the Louis
lana Industrial Exposition will
be one Of its most unique. and as
far as known, without a parallel
in the history of any other Fair
in the country.
1t is a play-an original play
written by home people and put
on by home people with the OBJ
ject of promoting writing for the
stage in the south.
This feature is furnished the
Fair by the New Orleans Press
Club, which organization is maxi
ing itself exceedingly active in
building up the undertaking TO
big proportions.
Numbers OF the most promi-
nent men OF New Orledns are
Ilending their influence to the
promotion of the enterprise and
the city is deeply interested in its
outcome.
The performance will take
place at the Grand Opera House
on the 5th, 9th and 7th Of May.
The Far opens at the Fair Ground
on the dav after the last of the
three performances.
The scene Of the play is laid in
New Orleans and its time of ac-
ton is the carnival season. II is
a comedy and it's fun deals with
carnival times.
Special scenery is promised by
the distinguished scenic painter,
Frank Cox, especially designed
for the play; and the cast to un-
dertake it is composed Of the
hest talent to be found in the
ely.
The action of the play is intef
spersed with bright songs and
music and one of the incidents is
a chorus OF Aiardi- Gras maslSers
v hich threatens to be treat in
itself.
Press Club inaugufated this
feature Of its activity last year
when it put on comedy entitled
The Military Maid" which was
very fairly successful and which
was subsequently, puton profess
sionally.
One Of the effects Of this pro-
ject, and in fact the main pur-
pose sought by the New Orleans
Press Club, has already been ac-
complished. 1t has stimulated
endeayor among the best writer's
OF the city in play writing and IL
seems now likely that next year
there will be two or three plays
produced in succession.
The New Orleans Press Club
scouts the idea that plays can be
produced in the north alone, and
it believes that the city of New
Orleans, naturally artistic in its
every instinct, can in time be
responsible for some Of the best
plays entertaining the American
Dublic.

Unless candidate for the u. s.
senate carries majority Of the
Legislators, he cannot be elected. /.
To get nomination he ought to
be required to carry a majority Of
the legislative districts. Itis not
an office that the primary election
law was intended TO cover. We
believe that it should be left to o
primary election and that each
senator and representative should
vote for whoever a majority Of his
constituents expressed prefer
ence, without regard TO how the
vote stood elsewhere. We think
that is the view OF the Legislative
candidates of Holmes. --Lexing-
