A FINE ADDRESS.

The address of f. w. Foete before
the bankers association, which ap.
peared in the Progress yesterday,
was the best exposition of the fallacy
of the state revenue law that has ever
been presented. His argument is
convincing, logical and fair. He
states the facts as they occur to him
and the incidents that lead up to the
enactment Of the Office of revenue
agent. And then Mr.. Foote was SC
courteous in his remarks that it really
presented the argument in more
forcible light. Doubtless all the
bankers agree with him and so does
the general public. AS he says it is
not the fault of the revenue agent,
but defect of the law, and the sooner
il can be remedied the better it will
be for the state.

ONE ON HOBBS.

A good one is told on Mr.. Hobbs,
editor of the Brookhaven Leader.
We were in Jackson Tuesday and met
a friend there who saw the occurrence
and related it to US. 1t seems-as
was we'll know-that the liking s
daughters had charge of the street
cars. Mr.. Hobbs jumped aboard a
car to take ride. One of jackson s
charming young ladies, who was act
ing as conductor, came along to col
lect car fare, and held out her hand
to Mr.. Hobbs for the fare and he very
cordially shook hands with her. think
ing she was telling him howdy.-
Utica Herald.
Perhaps Mr.. Hobbs in this case
was like Sawmill'' Jnoes who used
to be in partnership with Hon. H. d.
Money in the newspaper business at
Winona. Col. Money told us the
story on his recent trip to Hattiesburg
and, like Riley who related the story
of the fight between the brown jeans
dog and the calico cat, we tell it as
it was told to us. Col. Sawmill Jones
wanted to go to neighboring station
on the Illinois Central road, but it
seems that his pass had run its course
and would not be recognized by the
conductor. Col. Jones was walking
from one end of the office of the old
Advance to the other, occasionally
stumbling over great pile of old ex-
changes, lamentig the fact that he
had no pass over the road and soon
the train would arrive. Then Col.
Money spoke up and told him as the
fare was only a dollar or two Mr..
Jones should pay it and quit grieving
about having no free transportation.
THAT is true" replied the sawmill
and newspaper Jones. 81 do not mind
that, but it is the unprofesional fea-
ture of the matter that 1 regret. -

jumps on him. The Record expected
