The Lexington Advertiser truthful

'perceptible to some people. Instead
OF encouraging home enterprises, as
comfortably reaching a limited field,
they endeavor to start another In the

which is q cut throat competition and
mutual loss, and general discourage

When the Legislature next January
comes to make a new Congressional APP
portionment, the people will expect,
and demand al honest one. There Is
no excuse, as there will be no pallia-
lion this time for a dishonest appvr-
tionment. The conditions which gave
the State the present apportionment-
an unholy gerrymander have beer
wholly removed by the Constitution
which divorced the ballot box from
ignorance.
Hon. Edgar S. Wilson. the able, de-
voted and patriotic Mississippian, who
has charge OF the Mississippi Bureau
OF the New Orleans Picayune, in last
Saturdays paper, gave a page 10 this
all-important subject. In addition 10
some very interesting statistics, and a
historical reference to the men, living
and dead. who have served in Congress
in all the districts under the present
apportionmeut, made In 1882, he pub-
fishes two maps, one showing the pres
ent districts, and another showing a
proposed superintendent. He we'll and
truly says-as a glance at the proposed
apportionment will show that II Is
merely a diagram of demands OF an
honest State press for an honest appor-
tionment, the federallaw requiring COM
pactness and contiguousuess. Mr.. Will
son says that an honest apportionment
is only a matter OF geography and arith-
metic, and, taking the expressions OF
the press as a guide, he has, In making
up the proposed new districts, simply
gathered together a posy Of other
mem thoughts, and nothing but the
thread that binds them Is his own"
Every man in Mississippi ought to
see the issue OF the Picayune contain
ing the masterful contribution by Mr..
Wilson to the apportionment discuss
sion. The SENTINEL wishes it could
reproduce it all, but its limited space
bids.

ticable an equal numter Of inhabitants"
Mr.. Wilson also shows that the
twelfth census gives the state Of Mis-
siss,ppi l,55l,270 Inhabitants. Eight

He also states that "a man not will

Governor Longino and staff left
Thursday afternoon for Washington to
attend the Inauguration OF President
Mckinley. Every governor Of every
state In the Union ought to attend
every inauguration, whether the
governors are democrats or repub =
licans, or the president is a democrat
or n republican. Travel is an educa-
tion, and the mingling of the gov
ernors OF the forty-four states would
put them in better touch, and promote
a better feeling all owe the land. 1t
wouldn't be a bad idea for the president
on such occasions to give a dining in
honor Of the governors of the United
States. This is the greatest country
on earth, and there should be naught
but comfy and good feeling especially
among those In authority. The SEN
TINEL is glad that Governor Lopgino
is going to Washington, and it feels
sure that Mississippi will be the gamer
by his having done SO.

The Mississippi Bureau of the New
Orleans Picayune of Wednesday con-
tanned a two column discussion OF the
poll tax delinquent question, with a
double column table showing the
number of polls all told assessed in the
state, and the number of white and
black poll tax delinquents as furnished
by the tax collectors OF the seventy
five cities of the state. There we're
assessed 2S4. 1877; there was collected
from 1888. 200; and there we're shown to
be 146, sS7 white and black delinquents,
Of which 80, 731 we're white and 1858
were black. So it. seems that nearly
thirty thousand white poll tax delin-
quents have been participating in the
primaries making nominations Of men
who are to enact laws and levy taxes
for the people who pay taxes to vote.
1t is probable but that for the Starlight
bill compelling publication OF poll tax
delinquents there might have been
fifty thousand white delinquen t..

It Is understood that the letter Of the
Royal Ulster Yacht Club to the New York
Yacht Club requesting that the conditions
Of the Americas cup races be so modified
as to abandon the arrangements allowing
each boat two clear minutes in which to
get started and giving the Shamrock II
three weeks to ref1t in case of her late ar
rival on the other side, and also providing
for the measurement Of the yachts at the
Brooklyn navy yard, instead Of the Erie
Basin, points out that the races should be
q test Of the skill and seamanship of the
shippers and crews, as well as Of the speed
Of the competing yachts.
The letter referred to, which was mailed
from Glasgow to New York January 80, is
due there today.
Regarding the measurement proposal, the
difficulty of obtaining accurate measure
ments In q dock exposed to the wash of
passing vessels is pointed out by the Royal
Ulster Yacht Club.
Some people anticipate that the second
and third notifications will be granted
without demur, but 1t Is regarded as doubt
full that the proposed alteration In the
starting of the yachts will be accepted
The letter argues that under the present
conditions nothing Is gainable by maneu-
vering for the start. and It is further point
ed out that there Is nothing to prevent
boat which has crossed the line after the
starting signal from going about and re-
crossing in the wake Of the other vessel.
