VOLUME FIFTY SIX.

With this iss lie Of the DEMOCRAT
STAR IL enters IN It's ffty.sxth year
OF existance, and as Is generally the
custom the editors Of newspapers have
something TO say to the public regard
ing the event. The student conclud-
Ing the reading and closing his
volume looks back over IL in review
and refreshes his memory with it's
contents. So IL is fitting with the
closing Of volume OF a newspaper to
recall its points and events, especially
in its individuality or bearing upon
ourselves as individuals.
We have labnred in and out of sea-
son for the betterment Of our people,
and so far as was in our power for the
good Of town and county. We have
endeavored to publish clean paper,
advocating justice, right and truth,
and in so doing we may have offended
some, but we are well satisfied with
the results of our experiment. and
propose to continue on the same line
regardless Of consequences. That our
efforts to uphold the majesty Of the
law, and our determination to de.
nounce wrong-doing in whatever form
meets the approval of the good and
abiding element is evidenced by
the fact that the paper was never on a
tirmer financial foundation than now.
Our town and vicinity is in the as.
cendant. Strokes OF improvement
daily meet the eye, plans OF progress
are rapidly unfolding, strangers seek.
ing homes among US, deep water al
most an assured fact, and none but
those who are blinded by prejudice
will deny that the DEMOCRAT. STAR
has not been potent factor in bring,
ing these things about. But enough
We are satisfied 1t has been a bright
beacon to many, ,cheered the wayfaring,
encouraged the despondcnt and guild
ed the political w0nderer to Il haven
Of political rest.
We have just left our last anch0 or.
age, and have taken a new start on
life's ever flowing and often Gill0way
sea. Clouds lower over the far-off
horizon, through which We discern
some streaks Of sunlight. Waters
dash wildly in the distance, and anon
there is calm, Fierce winds will
swing our vessel into danger, rocks
and breakers will threaten it. then
the elements will subside, the surface
be smooth and shining, and pleasant
gales will watt us onward. In all the
vicissitudes Of this perilous voyage
let US try to do our duty, AMI trust a
wise and kind Creator for the rest,
then may we expect pleasant sail
and Il happy port at its termination.

THE HARBOR OF PAsOAGOULA.

The special Southern Supplement to
the Baltimore Manufacturers Record
is eminently worthy of the highest
commcndati0n Throughout the South.
The Souths present and future great
ness is described In comprehensive in.
formation, "nut-shelln compendinms
which give statistical existing facts,
the basis Of an almost unlimited con-
tinuous prosperity from resources not
to be found elsewhere in the world
Brain and Drawn have taken hold OF
the destinics Of the South; its agricul'
ture, lumber and mines combined with
manufactures and the industries that
thrive from the fisheries of the
streams aud the sea.
The Manufacturers Record should
be in every home in the South.
We reproduce what is said of Pasca.
goula:
The harbOr Of Pascagoula. through
which passes the commerce Of the
Pascag0ula district, Is being deepened
to seventeen feet. The recent appro-
priation from the government will
enable the work To be carried out
speedily, and two powerful dredges
are now employed. We will MT dwell
upon the impetus that deep water will
give the port OF PaScagoula, rs it is
well known that the great lumber
mills Of Moss Point and Scranton
whose product must find outlet
through this port. have always been
greatly hampered by the lack of deer
water Through this port, according
to the cuStOm-house figures, the ex
ports OF lumber and timber for the
fiscal year ending June 30 amounted
to l36, 900 superficial feet by water,
while the rail shipments were TO-.
500. .000.

membered that when these privileges
were granted, that we had but recent
ly emerged from war that had left us
poor indeed. 1t will be borne in mind
also that in 1882, railroad mileage in
the State was less than almost any
other State in the Union. Our needs
in this regard could not be ovcresti-
mated, so exemption from taxation
was held out as an induccment for
capitalists to come within our board
ers and build and construct great
thOrOughfares that would he the
means OF opening up and developing
the country.
1t is a fact that various lines of
railroads were construed and put in
operation In the State from 1882 to
1890 and those furnishing the money
felt secure that the statutes s0lemnly
enacted by the Legislature, and tiEle
and again held to be valid by the Su-
preme Court, protected their invest
ments, agreeably to the terms of the
statutes and the decisions OF the
court. But recent decisions of a divid-
ed Supreme Court as now organized,
overruled the deliverances of its pre-
decessors. the result Of which, caused
this unfortunate litigation, which Is
now pending before the Supreme
Court Of the United States. How q
law suit will end none can tell, but 1t
may be confidently stated that com.
promise and settlement of the whole
business by the Legislature and rail-
roads, upon a fair and equitable basis,
would meet the appreciation OF all
fair minded people

Miss, on February 2, 1900. How sad are
our hearts since Hattie left us. We can
only look to Jesus for help, and we trust

world, where there will be no more
parting. 1t is so hard to give her up,
hut the Lords will be done, not ours.
How we miss her. She leaves hus-
band, two dear little children, father,
sister and five brothers and host of
friends and relatives to mourn her loss.
May God bless and comfort our sad
hearts, and prepare us to meet her in

Aloha From Hawaii.

Every city and avery great firm
try to produce annually the most
attractive and beautiful calendar for
the year that is to come and bring
happiness aud sorrow to all oil man
kind.
The calendar issued by two ladies
whose birthplace is Hawaii mel, is
ono OF the most artistic and beauti-
full we have ever seen.
The artist Is Mrs, Helen w. Kelly,
the daughter OF our venerable fel'
low citizen, FL. NJ. Whitney. The
charming and appropriate pictures
which heads the records Of the fleet
ing days in each month are from
her pencil, and each sketch is fol.
lowed by pretty verses from the pen
of Miss Anna M. Paris. AS small
souvenir to send abroad nothing
can compare With the calendar,
which is inscribed, "Aloha From
Hawaii" The cost is trihing COM
psred to the excellent manner in
which the calendar has been de-
signed end printed, and the Hawai-
ian News Company 10 to be con-
graduated in bringing this baauti.

public prior to the holidays. 1t is

to hear witnesses aud lawyers and
where only the sonorous voice OF the
