The kiersky.keIIy Case.

jackson, Miss, May Ga case of
considerable importance was decided
st the sitting Of the. Supreme Court
last evening. In the suit of KiersIy
VS.. Kelly, from the Circuit Court of
Warren county, to decide the ques-
tion as to which contestant was en-
titled to the Office Of city assessor Of
vicksburg, O motion was made by the
attorneys for the appellee to dismiss
the appeal on the ground that Mr..
Kiersky had accepted the Office of
deputy postmaster at Wick sburg and
was therefore ineligible for the asses
sorshlp.
Chief Justice Whitfield read the
opinion of the Court declaring that
Section 2G6 of tho State Constitution
regarding the holding of offices did
not apply in this instance, aud that
Mr. Kiersky's acceptance of the deputy
postmastership could not be construed
as declaration that he intends to
abannon the assessorship fight, or that
he will fail to qualify for the office IN
oase he wins the fight. Several
strong authorities were cited in sup.
port of the opinion.

Protests have been received 1.

Protests have been received In
Washington from the Protestant
Christians against the contemplated
visit to Rome of Gov. Taft during
his return voyage to the Philippine
Islands. There are no reasons for
these protests, declare the authorities,
for there is nothing significant in the
visit Of Gov. Taft to the pope, and
will in no sense be recognition OF
the vatican The visit will be due to
tho fact that no person In the world
other than the pope has the power to
cause the withdrawal Of the friars
from the Philippines, and 1t is to ao-
complish their withdrawal that Gov.
Taft will see the aged pontif. The
visit of the governor has nothing
whatever to do with the purchasing
of the lands OF the order Of friar.
Pending legislation will give TO the
Philippine commission power to issue
bonds to purchase these lands, which
comprise some 400, 600, 900 acres.

Now comes request from the Phil
tppines for a reduction in the tariff
on Philippine sugar, but there is no
desire on the part Of the administya-
sion to complicate the Cuban sugar
question by demanding that reduc-
tion be given on the Philippine ar
tiole. Acting Secretary of War Sanger
has received a message from the in
Aabitants of the island of Negroes
that points out that unless relief 10
granted the people Of Negroes will
be hopolessly ruined and starvation
and disease will stalk among them.
The message has been transmitted to
congress. This action was taken be-
cause of the apparent distress under
which the inhabitants of the islands
are laboring. The message was from
the president of the assembly OF pres
idents Of Negroes.
