MISSISSIPPI MATTERS.
NOTES OF PAST AND CURRENT EVENTS.
By ]. L. POWER.
state Farmers Institute.
easaSAsA4AsoeAe@s

We copy TO heartily endorse the fol-
lowing timely and practical sugestiens
of Mr.. Wilson in his Pieayune Current
Comments:
The farmers Institutes in the sey-
eral counties of Mississippi have at
tracted so muchh interest this year.
and are proving so productive of good.
as to suggest the idea of a State farm
ers' institute next year, as a culmina-
ton or rounding up Of the county in.
stitutes.
The services Of the best institute
conductors of this and other States
could be secured for an institute here
at the capital. The railroads, ever
ready to promote the material and In
dustrial welfare OF the State, may be
relied on with confidence to give a
very low rate TO delegates attending
the institute.
The citizens should throw open their
doors and invite the farmers of the
State to their firesides and hospitable
boards and make their visit one long
to be remembered. Here is an oppor.
tunity for the people of the capital
city to meet the farmers of the State
and for the farmers OF the State to
meet each other-the sun-browned
yeomanry, the salt of the common
wealth-an opportunity to do the
whole State and people service and
for the capital city to honor itself by
the entertainment of the farmers of
Mississippi in the homes of its citizens.
AT the time the million-dollar state
house will be nearing completion. the
new 100000 hotel will be open To the
public, the new $4,000 courthouse will
have been built. the 100000 opera
house will be ready TO receive the dele
gates to the institute, the 100000 sew
erage system will have manifested its
benefits and the men who dig the
ground and who, consequently, pay the
taxes, would, in addition to attending
the farmers institute, see all these inn
provements and rejoice in the prog
ress of their capital city.
There is something in this idea. The
more it is dwelt upon the more II will
grow. The assembling of the repre-
sentative farmers of Mississippi. five,
say, from every county, making one
from each supervisors district, at the
capital for State institute, and their
entertainment by the people of the
capital city would make an epoch In
the history of this great agricultural
State. 1t. would be memorable in
State recollection. 1t would prove
grateful to patriotic sensibility. II
would weld the people of the State
into one harmonious whole, and they
would march on to diversified develop
ment in solid pnalanx.
This is something for the people Of
the State TO think about. 1t is some
thing that should be acted upon. Il
contains germ of wonderful possibil
ties. 1t would mean much for Jack
son, for the people of Mississippi and
| for the State.
