A Good Beginning.

The legislature has made good be-
ginning. Tho organization of both
houses has been perfected by the Sc
lection of good men for the various
official positions, and there are many
evidences that the body will make a
good record for diligence and close
application to the business for which
! it has assembled.
The selection of presiding officers
for the two branches of the legisla-
ture was particularly happy. Hon.
Jno. r Dinsmore, president pro TEN
of the Senate, will prove a splendid
official. He is a thorough parlia-
mentarian and will expedite the SEN
ate business to the best advantage,
when in the absence st Lieutenant
Governor Harrison he Is called up
on to preside.
In the selection of Mr.. Dinsmore
by the Senate NoXubee county was
highly hOnored, He had just been
sworn in for the first time as amem-
Der of the State Senate, and yet was
elected president pro tenn of that
body by reclamation, it being prob
ably the first time in the history Of
the State when a new Senator was
elected to this office.
While, however, Mr.. Dnsmore is
a new man in the Senate, he is an
old and well tried legislator, and his
selection is a well deserved compli-
ment, and one of which his county
should be proud of and appreciate.
