The Pc anut Industry,

Of the peanut, the Kansas City
journal ha, the following:
The people of the United State,
consume 4 900, 900 bushels of pea
nuts annually at a cost of about
$40, 900, 900. The growing Of the
peanut in this country is gradually
increasing, but much Of the pro-
duct consumed is still brought
from abroad, notably from SPAN.
Egypt and Japan. Yet the South
Atlantic scaboard and the lower
Mississippi valley, as we'll as 9th
er parts Of the United States, have
been shown to be abundantly res
ponsiye to the cultivation of this
ground nut, the average yield be-
ing about sixty bushels per acre.
Although the peanut has been
used mainly a. cOnfectlon rather
than as a food, its value as a sub
stantial is remarkable when ana
Iyzcd and placed in comparison
with the values of other products.
For example, it is shown that
the nutrition of this nut is greater
than that of bacon or butter, near
ly twice as great as that of cheese
or peas, about three times As great
as that of veal, beef, rye flour or
rice, and about ten times as great
as that of milk or potatoes. The

press TO help the movement along.
We would now suggest that the

Anti-Lynch A Law.
The Mobile Register says:

The Mobile Register says:
Mississippi has adopted an anti
lynch law that will cause the de-
position from office of any sheriff
who negligently allows Il mob TO
take a prisoner from his charge; :;
and allows damages to be recover
ed from members of the mob by
the relatives of any person who
is lynched by such members. This
law avoids the objection raised
against the Ohio anti-lynch law.
which law permitted damages to
be recovered from the county
wherein a lynching took place.
On account of that provision the
law has been declared unconstitu-
tiOnal.
In commenting upon the above,
the Hattiesburg Progress says:
The anti-lynch law of this State
will never amount to row of
headless pms. When a negro is
lynched and his heirs come mop
ing around claiming the $1,000
reward, or whatever it may be
termed, they will go the same
way. If the legislature had en-
ploycd the time consumed in en-
acting this law to the purpose of
stamping out smallpox, which is
killing negroes by the wholesale,
it would have been much better
for the cOlored race.
This anti-lynch law only aggra-
Yates matters, making them worse
and will never receive the ap-
proval of the public. And the
probability is it too, like the anti
lynch law of Ohio, will be found
to be unconstitutional when put
to the test.

judicial PIumS.

L ne JACKSON correspondents ol
the New Orleans Timcs-Democrat
says: Sixty days from Saturday
night Governor Longino will be
called upon to make the largest
number of judicial appointments
that a Governor of Mississippi was
ever called upon to make at one
time. The elective Judiciary bill
goes into effect sixty days from
and after Its passage, ut which
time the term of all the circuit
judges and chancellors will expire
by operation of law. 1t will then
devoIve on the Governor to fill all
these vacancies by appointment
under the Cox bill, and the in
cumbents to hold until the LeglS-
lature of 1902 declares the judicial
election held in the fall of 1901.
The appointees will thus hold for
nearly two years before they can
be ousted by their elected success
sors. As the possession of the
office at the time of election Will
give the ineumbents an excuse to
ask for full term at the hands of
the people, inasmuch as they have
only held for Il portion of term,
these appointments, even for the
two Years, will doubtless be re-
garded As desirable, and the Gov
ernor will have no difficulty in
getting good lawyers to accept the
places. One chancellor's term
that of \. &. iiill-expireS before
the law goes into operation, and
it WAS necessary for the Governor
to appoint him Saturday night;
his term, however, will expire
along with that of the rest of the
Judges and chancelIors, and he will
also have to he reappointed.
