1t. was stated by some one that
there was an election in the city yes
terday. A man went up to vote, but
he was informed that he could not as
he had not registered in time. He
then asked the privilege of paying his
taxes or any other old thing that the
city might assess. He was told as an
American citizen he could pay all the
money he had i'll his opcket, but as an
American citizen the laws of this state
required that he should be registered
four months previous to an election.
We have some mighty funny laws or
rather We have some mighty funny
people who hold elections. When
man is required to pay his taxes or
have his property sold but is not al
lowed to vote there is something
wrong with the organic law or with
the men who hold the election

NO TEARS FOR HENDERSON,.

Speaker Henderson is probably
sorry by this time that he got scared
before he was hurt. Judge Birdsall
made a fine race, but he is nearer
right on the tariff question than Hen
derson, and his victory is to some ex
tent that he is in favor of tariff revis-
ion, triumph for that cause. There
will be no tears shed at the retirement
of Speaker Henderson from active po-
litical life. Power did not become
him and was not exercised in way to
merritt the approval of good men of
either party. Charleston News and
Courier

BISHOP THOMPSON.

It is not often that the Progress has
anything good TO say about a profni-
nent man or anybody else. Tile Prog
ress is not built that way But it
wants to say right here that it be-
lieves that Bishop Thomson who died
the other day was one of the most
conscientious, Christian gentlemen
in the state. That is saying great
deal, but the man deserves q great
deal, for he was one of the best men
in the state. The Progress is not in
the habit of landing people. but it
can conscientiously do so in this case.

The Vicksburg American SAYS that
man who gets drunk has no business
holding public office. The time is
soon coming when a man who gets
drunk will never be in danger of
holding a place within the gift Of the
public. Drunkenness has passed
from a fine art to q social and bust
ness grievance, and is no longer toler-
ated either in social circles or in bust
ness pursuits. Whiskey, once the
patron saint of the ''good fellow
has killed itself, on the same system
that calf with plenty of rope will
surely get the worst of his pranks be-
fore he is half through the game. -
Meridian Star. That is fine talk it
is true, but it appears to the Progress
that it has been but a very few years
ago since a certain governor and a
turnpike bridge over Pearl river had
collision. But that has passed.

LONGINO-WEAK ON LYNCHTNC

porters of the Press was told recently
that the editor of the paper must quit
protesting against lynchings and
burnings or he might be told some
thing about his presence in the state
not being desired. Governor LONGING
, is a sound money man, and that is
where we agree. y

ware. The warming of its reporter
