AS you scar the newspapers from
day to day and read of tragedies,
deaths and such like, little do you
consider the sorrows, griefs and heart
burns of the people to whom these
Affections come. You read and are
interested, but pass them by as If
they we're to be expected. But only
when these visitations come into our
own lives do we realize how terrible
they are. TITS then that we think of
the tragedies of life and how often
they come into the experience of our
fellowman. We sympathize with
them then. 1t takes affection to
arouse our sense of feeling for our
fellows. But it were better so, else
existence would be a continued
| round of sorrow and sadness and light
h%eartedness, and gayety would be but
an %evanescent dream.

State Auditor Cole in his report re-
Gently issued advocates the creation
of an Insurance Commissioner for the
State. and it is reported that Cover
nor Longino will recommend to the
legislature that such be done. This
is eminently proper, as it a be done
without cost to the taxpayers. Near
ly all states have such commissioners,
and the various companies doing bust
ness in the State contribute their
share toward paying the expenses of
the office. The benefits of having
such an officer are manifold. The
leading one is that the standing of the
companies can be investigated before
allowed to do business in Mississippi,
and thus protection can be had
against wildcat concerns, of which
there are some. AS things now are
the people have no way of ascertain
ing the financial Standing or ability
Of the companies soliciting their bust
ness, being left merely to the state
ments from agents as furnished by
the company headquarters. So long
as the companies are honest with the
agents, and the agents are honest
with the people there is not mucl
danger, but you can never tell wher
dishonest companies creep in, so the
thing to do is to compel them all t.
prove themselves worthy of the bust
ness of the citizens of Mississippi
Reputable companies will not objec'
to this.

The people of Indiana are becoming
somewhat alarmed owe the increase
of negro population to that state.
Within the last five years the negro
vote has increased five per cent more
than the white vote, indicating an IN.
crease in the negro population. AS
the Indiana people see that the ne
groes are not such desirable citizens
they are trying to check this growth
by various methods, many of which
would be looked upon with discredit
here in the South. The love OF the
Northern man for the negro decreases
in the same proportion as his assocla-
tion with him increases.

THE DEEP.WATER CONVENTION.

Few people of the State fully APP
preciate the Importance of the Deep
water Convention held on Thursday
and Friday of last week at Gulfport;
nor will they do so for some time to
come. 1t was strictly a business
meeting, though some few political
demagogues, as usual, were among
the large list of delegates, which COM
prised leading and representative men
from nearly all sections of the State.
The object of the meeting was to
awaken the citizens of Mississippi to a
sense of their possibilities by showing
them what had already been done to-
ward obtaining a harbor on the Gulf
coast where the largest of steamers
might come in and load with the pro-
ducts of the State, and to explain
what more is to be done unless pres
ent plans fall through. The progress
i've business men of Gulfport were in
strumental in bringing about the
meeting. Their plans were success
| fully contaminated. A more repre-
sentative body of men never assem-
bled in the State.
Through the courtesy Of the Gulf
and Ship Island Railroads a special
train carried the delegates from Jack
son to the coast. A warm reception
was accorded by the citizens of that
live and growing place. A number of
able and instructive addresses were
delivered by some of our members of
congress and able business men. The
burden of them all was that the work
begun ought by all means to be fin
ished and that congress be memorial
lied to grant the appropriation of
81. 900. 900 needed to complete the i'm
provements of the harbor. Already
more than a half million dollars has
been spent, with the result that there
is a channel 300 feet wide and nine
teen feet deep into the harbor. The
! projectors want a th~irty-foot channel.
Among the leading spirits of the
meeting were Capt. W. II. Hardy and
! Capt. j r. Jones, both of whom have
been largely instrumental in cOmplet-
inr q e. = T.. Railroad and maxi
ing the harbor Improvements. Their
addresses were very practical, instruc-
tive and inspiring and opened the
eyes of the delegates to the value of a
deep-water harbor to the State.
They are thoroughly imbued with the
idea that Mississippi is destined to a
wonderful growth in the next few
years, and they will do their part to-
ward accomplishing such.
Columns might be written about
this meeting, its objects, proceedings
and of the royal n in which the
delegates were entertained. Suffice
to say, the securing of a deep-wateI
harbor at Gulfport is an end to be de-
sired by all our people. and Missis'
sippi's representatives in congress
should be urged to work for that ap'
preparation in order that the work
may be completed.
