In speaking of the south q

these remarks: II have travelled
all over Europe and the United
States, and there is not 3 place
under the sun where the poor
people live as we'll, or have as
many chances to become independ.
ent as in tho south. The poorest
negro lives better than the serfs
of Russia or peasants of other
European countries. 1t is true
that the manuel laborer receives
better wages in the north than IN
the south, but the expenses of
living are SO much greater after
you cross the Mason and Dixson
line that the advantage is lost.

and JUDGMENT can not only make
an honest living, but with land as
cheap as it is, can easily buy q

Donna Anna proved the best
of wives, adding materially to the
family income. 1t appears to
have been she who rode daily to
overlook the vineyard, gave orders
for the rather meager harvests,
watched the making Of the wine
and oil to see that nothing was
wasted, saw that the serving
maids did their work aud spun
their stint of fax and wool, and
looked after the education of her
children in their teLder years.
With all this care the household
seems not to have had much over
and above the daily needs, so
Donna Ammo introduced the silk
work into the village, and through
it gained sufficient income to send
two Of her sons to college. Be-
sides 81 many occupations she
had time to devote to neighbor-
hood charity and to inculcate in-
to her children those principles Of
honor, honesty and love Of family
which have been so CONSPICUOUS

Harvesting In Kansas,

The Boston papers are COM
~miserating the fate of the Harvard
students who took a rest during
the summer vacation by swarming
out to Kansas to work as harvest
ers in the wheat fields. They
draw pathetic pictures of the hard
ships the boys have to undergo.
This shows that the Bostonese
have very little conception of the
way Kansas people conduct har-
vesting. 10 the farmers boys
from New England the reaping Of
wheat by machinery is really a
picnic compared to the severe and
painful work done in the little
side hill, stony grain fields of
Massachusetts. The Kansas har-
vest hand rides a machine and
drives the team, while the machin-
cry does the rest. The most ardu-
ons manuel labor in harvesting
there is the collecting Of the sheav-
es, in case there is no threshlng
machine attachment to the reaper
and binder, and shocking them
after the machine has passed by.
This was always considered q task
for the small boy in the old times
when the writer was a field hand
on the ancestral farm in New
York. But the old fashioned
cradle was q back brea ker, aud
the fellow who had to follow along
with a rake and bind the grain
with his bare hands until his
fingers were raw and bleeding
generally felt as though he had
been run through q threshing ma
chine when the horn blew for
supper Rnd rest. The Harvard
boys have no such experiences
in Kansas.-Nebraska Star

Found tnllty OF Peonage.
A jury Verdict Against Robert
N. Franklin.

Montgomery, Ala, July 20
(Special.-sJnry and verdict of
gully" was the docket entered in
the United States court here in
the cases charging peonage against
Robert N. Franklin, Of Goodwater,
which have been on trial this week.
The verdict of the jury was ac-
companied by a recommendation
to the court to be merciful to the
convicted man. Judge Thoma as
G. Jones complied with this re-
commentator. The lowest fine
was imposed, 81, 900. Three hum
dred dollars OF this fine was
promptly paid by the defendant,
and, owing to this, further execu-
ton Of the sentence was suspend
ed by the court. Judge Jones,
in an eloquent talk, thanked the
jury for their services to the
government. In connection with
these thanks he read extracts from
a letter received by him from
President Roosevelt in regard, to
the exposure of peonage news by
the Secret Service Department at
Washington. Judge Jones had
written the President that much
of the revival of sectional feeling
on account Of the peonage cases
has arisen from a wide circulation
among Northern papers of false
statements by members of the
department of secret service.
President Roosevelt replied that
he had Investigated the statement
of Judge Jones and had found
that this practice had been wide
and outrageous. Since his letter
none of these statements have
gone forth.
At a late hour this evening, ON
motion of District Attorney Reese,
four cases charging peonage we're
not pressed as to r. G.. Dunbar
On account of evidence given by
him for the government in the
Turner cases. J. M. Kennedy, a
justice of the peace of Tallapoosa
county, also entered pleas of
guilty to twenty-three indict-
ments. 1t is said that on account
of government evidence delivered
by Kennedy before the grand
jury the sentence of the court
will be indefinitely suspended.

Senator II. D. Money spoke to
a full house at the Court House
Monday night and as he does up
on all occasions he entertained
those who were 50 fortunate as
to hear him.. lie was introduced
by Ex.C Congressman Allen who
paid a fine tribute to the Senator
as a representative of the South
ern people in Congress.
At the beginning Of his re-
marks Mr.. Money asked the audi
enco what question they desired
him to discuss, and the race ques.
ton being suggested he began the
discussion of the subject from the
standpoint Of national policy. His
remarks were pitched upon q high
plane and delving into the most
remote periods of history he trac-
ed the negro through the ages
down to the present time and at
every period he was found to be
either a slave or engaged in tear
ing down every government un.
der which he had lived. He called
attention to the fact that no gov.
eminent now having any Of the
black or dark races "a subjects
allowed them any part whatever
in the conduct of the government.
Experience had taught that two
races could not act in harmony
in a government aud that to the
wiser must be left its affairs il it
renamed permanent and stable.
The words Of the speaker made a
deep impression upon his hearers
when he begged them to take
.F -
hold of the grave problem which
now confronts them and solve it
with justice to the negro and to
the best interest of both races.
AS Mr.. Money had to catch the
S%outhbound NJ. & 0. train he did
not have ample time In which to
20 through the range which his
subject afforded. His remarks
were highly entertaining to his
hearers aud the rounds of applause
given him manifested the approval
and endorsement of the large and
intelligent audience present.

The MississipptExhibit.


The writer spent the early part
of the week in Alcorn and Tisho-
mingo counties, looking after ex-
hibits for the Words Fair, to be
given at st. Louis next year. He
saw MANY things of interest and
value, and was promised good ex-
hibits from both counties.
AT Corinth the commissioner
visited the different factories and
learned that that city was, indeed,
the Lowell Of Mississippi. 1t has,
in the Adams Machine Works,
the largest plant for the manufac-
ture of engines. boilers, saw mills,
ETC., in the south, with one ex-
ceptlon, selling as it does, its pro-
ducts to some fifteen states, as
we'll as to foreign countries.
Corinth also has three factories
devoted entirely to the manufac-
ture of clothing, two of these
corners making pants alone, the
three turning out three thousand
pairs Of pants daily, and employ.
ing about 750 people, the greater
number being women and girls.
Another pants factory has been
organized and will soon commence
operations. There are several wood
working plants at Corinth, among
them two spoke factories and one
heading establishment. The city
has two electric light plants and
a good system Of water works,
and the building of an electric
railway to Shiloh is now under
discussion with fair prospects of
success, most of the stock for the
enterprise having been subscribed.
While in Corinth the writer
visited the famous "jungle house,
of Mr.. Henry Moore, the great
hunter, traveller, miner, naturalist
and fnancier, where is exhibited
over three thousand specimens of
birds and animals, beautifully
displayed in extensive and elabor.
ate glass cases, rivaling in rarity
and beauty the exhibits in the
Smithsonian Institution. These
birds and animals were killed by
MI. Moore on his trips around
the world, in Africa, India, Nor
way, Sweden, Europe, Mexico,
America and other countries, and
are mounted true to life by taxi
dermists who accompanied Mr..
Moore, in his travels over the
earth. 1t is the finest private
collection known, and MI. Moore,
who is now in Europe will be
asked to allow a portion of it to
be displayed in the Mississippi
exhibit at St. Louis.
At 1uka the writer was shown
many fine mineral specimens,
more, perhaps, than a be found
in any other county of the state,
Tishomingo being noted for it's
valuable minerals. 1t has build
ing stone Of the best quality,
covering miles and miles of it's
surface, and in many places more
than a hundred feet IN thickness.
1t also has the best gravel known
in the south, which is largely used
for ballasting railroads and in
street paving; iron pyrites, silica,
potters clay, kaolin. amber, lead,
ETC., and mineral water from a
half dozen famous. springs, the
equal of any known. All these
things and others, Tlshomingo
will show in the Mississippi ex-
hipit at the Worlds Fair. Her
people reslize the value of the
mineral wealth Of their section
and will have it set forth in the
best possible manner at the great
Observation-Disclosures Ledger.
