AN OYSTER BILL.


Hon. T.. ]. Bowers, of Hancock
county. has introduced hill in
the Legislature to give the sever
III coast counties exclusive juris.
oiction over the oysters located in
each county. The matter is left under
the provisions OF Mr.. Bowers bill
In The hands of TIE Boards
OF Supervisors of the respect
I've counties, where we are in
clined to think the power should be
lodged. The Boards would, of course,
respect the wishes OF the people of
each county. In jackson county the
people might not want any steam
dredging done among her oyster beds,
and in the other counties it might he
thought wise to allow steam dredging.
The measure is nolhing but local home
rule-a principle that ought to be ever
popular.

LONGING ON lYNCHING.

Says the Clarion,Lodger. in com
ment on the Governors inaugural:
suppression of mohsn form the
theme for about one third of tho
message; and while the Clarion.
Ledger has never been an advocate
OF mobs, and regrets their existence
at any time it cannot endorse all the
Governor has to say on this subject
In fact. it must totally dissent with
much that he says under this heading
as u does not believe the facts war.
rant the extreme and radical views
that he takes. 1t believes that he
honestly, but unjustly, magnifies the
frequency of these crimes; and does
not believe, with all due reference to
the Governor, that mob law is on the
increase in this State. It Is simnly
more discussed and given more noto.
rlety than formerly. Nor can it en-.
dorse the radical and extraordinaries
that he suggests.

lYNCHINGS.

The Waynesboro Beacon this week
has a vigorous article condemning
that part Of Governor L0nginos in
augural address, referring to lynch
ings. From the article the following
paragraphs is reproduced:
Taken In its entirety, the address
has much To commend, and we do not
hesitate to applaud where applause is
deserved; neither shall we hesitat to
take issue where the grounds justify
such course. Feeling thus, we
would be dcrelict not only In our duty,
but In our principles did We not take
up the cause of Southern woman
hood as againt the black beasts who
invade and debauch Southern homes.
That portion OF the speech refer.
ring to lynchiDg in the South, and
especially 10 Mississippi, was in our
opinion, one Of the most remarkable
that ever fell from the lips of a South
ern man-certainly 40 Southern GOV,
ernor ever went so far as to arraign
the whites Of his own State for pro-
tecting their homes against the inva-
sion OF the black scoundrils who seek
TO destroy that which man holds
dearer than life itself-the spotless
purity OF the home circle, where wife,
mother, daughter and sister, rest Sc
cure in the knowledge that insults
Will be avenged at the hands OF hus.
band, father, son and brother.
What does Governor Longino pro-
pose to do?
"lie says lynching in Mississippi
must stop; that the conscienceless
culprits who violate the virtue OF
your mother. your wife, your daughter,
your sister, must be hauled up before
the courts, where the majesty of the
law will look into the matter, and If
the humiliating evidence justlfles
such course then the wretch nav
pay the penalty legally! This. OF
course, provided the much abused
criminal does not die with old age
before the case goes through all the
courts OF appeal. or II he does not
nnaliy escape punishment altogeter
through some tee hnicallty in the ma
jestic law!"

A "HOT BABY"
But A Better Man Than Harrison is
not in the Land.

Greenwood Commonwealth.
or all the gay, georgeously plum
aged birds that ever glorifled, lux
uriated and fitted In the sunshine on
bright spring morning entranced by
its own loviness Mississippi's onliest
Lieut.. Governor is entitled to the
cake. His feathers are more highly
colorcd, his voice sweeter and his
swan like form more utterly too too,
than yon could find this side of a
seraph's dream of paradise. To see
him as he welded so gracefully the
emblem Of his authority in that great
body OF great statesman over which
ne presided is enough to make a Greek
God envious. In the language of the
poet "lle Is hot baby" And yet
a better man Is not in the land.

HOME TIE BEST PLACE.

Hardened. indeed, must the man be
who does not offer sympathy for this
Kind when misfortune overtakes han
est Efforts. still 1t seems futile to SYM
pathlze with a certain class OF people
that go to strange places To gather in
riches In fortnight. Ninety-nine
per cent OF them return with sad ex-
periences, but the first new scheme
Offering riches by magic gathers in a
new crop.
In the development Of a new terri
tory the Aladdin lamp is always set
aolaze to the schemer and the new
school Of suckers bite with great
energy.
The New York Herald has the fol-
lowing to say OF a place called La
Gloria Cuba:
1t does seem too bad that there is
not always magic in a name;" that
when some poor devil invests his saw
ings ina Cuban settlement with so
promising title as La Gloria he
should find that he has bought some
thing more beautiful than Claude
Melnottes famous, If imaginary, Lake
Como palace, or finer than any castle
in Spain ever placed on the market.
But LA Groria settlers are coming
backin punches with dO!efnl faces and
more depressing stories OF their ex-
periences in that settlement, where
alleged plantation and villa sites are
under water, and the country abounds
in mosquitoes, queer bugs, ham at
forty-fve cents pound and eggs at
sixty cents a dozen.
