OYSTERS IN A STEW.
GOVERNOR WILL SPEND SEVERAL DAYS
ON THE GULF COAST
Investigating the Disputed Oyster Grounds
Between This State and Louisiana.
Special to the Daily Progress.


Biloxi, Nov. 1o.--Governor Lon
gi, will spend several days on the
gulf coast investigating the COM
plants Of the Mississippi oystermen
against the unfair. treatment of the
Louisiana patrol boats in driving them
from the disputed waters of the Mex
ican gulf. He is not expected to re-
turn to Jackson until Thursday, and
will make a thorough study of the
question in all its phases before lodg-
ing formal complaint with Governor
Heard.
The question is one of the utmost
Importance to the Mississippi fisher
men and oyster canneries along the
coast, owing to the fact that the dis
puted waters embrace the finest and
most extensive oyster beds of that sec
tion, and if the Mississippi boats are
prevented from taking oysters in the
disputed waters it will greatly Grip
pie the industry which has been en-
joying phenomenal growth for sew
eral years. Biloxi is now one of the
chief oyster markets Of the country,
and the citizens Of the place are
deeply interested in the settlement Of
the controversy.

PUBLIC HANGINGS
A STRONG SENSIMENT AGAINST SUCH
GROWING
Twenty to Take Place During Winter.
An to Be Private.
Special to the Daily Progress.

Special TO the Daily Progress.
Fayette, Nov. 10.-The campaign
against public hangings in Mississippi
is having good effect, and but very
few of the twenty or more public ex-
ecutions to take place in the state dur
ing the winter will be witnessed by
the assembled thousands, who gather
from miles around in a spirit of NOR
bid curiosity to see a fellowbeing die
on the scaffold.
The board of supervisors of Jeffer-
son county has ordered that the execu-
tions to take place in Fayette next
month be strictly in private, and a
similar order has been issued by the
board of supervisors Of Yallobusha
county concerning the double hanging
to take place at Coffeeville about the
same time.
The demoralizing effect Of public
hangings has been made apparent in
several instances in this state during
the past six months, and sentiment is
strongly opposed to having the grew
some events take place where all may
view them. The press of the state
has commenced the agitation of a law
to be passed at the next legislative
sessions prohibiting public hangings
and depriving boards of supervisors of
discretionary power in the matter.

A RATE.RAlSING METHOD
Adopted to Pay Litigations to Which
the Roads Are Subjected.

the Roads Are Subjected.
Special to the Daily Progress.
Jackson, Nov. 10. President J. T.
Jones Of the Gulf and Ship Island
road, in an interview on the damage
suit epidemic in Mississippi, states
that the company is now seriously
considering the advisability of increas-
ing both freight and passenger rates
on the system to meet the expense of
the titigatiop to which the road is
being subjected by parties with large
claims based on trivial grounds, and
thus in the end people along the road
will bear the burden of the damage
suits. The idea is not entirely new
in Mississippi, and on more than one
occasion it has been brought into play.
Shortly after the Illinois Central
road was compelled to pay the state
about $3.50, 900 in back taxes the
freight rates were increased, and it
is estimated that the railroad had its
money back from the people Of the
state within six months after the
judgment was psid, In case the back
tax suit now pending against the
company is decided adversely to the
corporation and payment of about
S700, 900 enforced the rate raising
method will doubtless IagAin be fol-
lowed.

At Club Meeting Composed of the
Leading Farmers.
RESOLVED THAT THE MIG. IS A MIG.
And That 1t is Bad Policy to Sell
Him Land or Furnish Him.
Special to thu Daily Progress.

jackson. Nov. lO.-such. surprise
and adverse comment has been oeca-
sioned throughout Mississippi by the
action Of the fArmers' club Of Amite
county in adopting resolutions Of a
very radical nature on the negro prob
lem.
The club is composed of the leading
farmers Of the county, and q summary
OF the resolutions they have promul-
gated is sas follows:
First-That it is q bad policy to
sell land to negroes.
= Second-That, it is unwise for cap
italists to purchase lands and concen-
trate negroes thereon, without having
white man on the land to act as
guardian Of the peace and qniet Of the
place.
Third-That supply merchants
shOuld not agree to furnish tenants
without the consent of the landlord.
Fourth-That protection should be
pledged to the negroes who show q
disposition to elevate themselves NOR
ally.
Fifth-That all differences should
I be adjusted in a legal and equitable
manner, and that force should never
lie resorted to.
The fourth and hfth clauses will be
neraiiy endorsed, and are approved
v the agricultural classes throughout
b state, but it is gravely feared that
attempt to enforce the hrst three
EsciRtiops will inevitably result in
trouble. possibly armed conflict, and
in the opinion of conservative people
IL is . tendency to discourage the ne
gro In an attempt to better his worldly
condition. The resolution calling it
q bsd policy to sell land to negroes is
especially obnoxious, and its enforce
ment in any section Of the state will
stpsvitsbly result in an exodus Of the
] negro.
The farmers Of Amite county have
experienced considerable trouble with
the negro labor problem Faeently,
and instead Of bettering the situation
it looks like the farmers club 10 at
tempting TO make matters worse. The
resolutions, so far as they tend TO curb
the negro personally or in business
way. are practically impossible Of en-
