If our enthusiastic church workers
in Mississippi who have had cause for
complaint at the dilapidated condition
of the various houses Of worship,
will take advantage Of the situation
this year and launch new church and
improvement plans In time to get the

August primary is held, some most
excellent improvements could be
made. No man Is ever so liberal in

The situation az West Point is In
deed q lamentabls one. with one Of
the newspapers hnlng all lts spuoe In
the interest Of Nj. Fox's candidanoy
for the Governoruhip and ne other
two doing the same thing FOR Nh.
Critics, the people win probably get
good and tired Of reading about both
Of the gentleman and many Of them
stop their papers altogether. Thus,
when the campaign is ended between
these two residents Of Clay county,
the West Point papers win have been
landed high and dry, entirely out Of
touch with the people &c newspapers,
each being looked upon as the paid
emiSary Of one or the other Of the
candidates for governor. An the pa
pers In West Point viii be- practically
destroyed by the time this canvass is
over, and neither Of them win have
any consolation for their sacrifices.
Politics are very cold blOOded. and
the politician is colder, after an cleo
ton Is over than is the politics he en-
braces. The men or papers that
make the greatest sacrifices for the
average politician lie never thought Of
after the use for them expires. II the
normal condition exists ct West Point
neither Mr.. Fox nor Judge Ortiz will
give either their local papers q
thought after the primary. These are
matters It will pay the newspapers Of
Mississippi to carefully think over
when the excitement Of the hour
passes by, and they have nor time to
give TO reflection.

The past week has been an anxious
one for the people living throughout
that rich and rapidly developing seq
ton Of Mississippi known as the delta.
The great river has been bank full and
steadily rising, 80 that the most vigil
liant watch has been necessary to pre-
vent breaks in the levies ct different
points to avoid the overflow Of prac-
tIcally ell the delta country. So far
the defense has been successfully
maintained, and as the river is falling
from Memphis to the north, the hope
is entertained that the worst danger
has been passed.

The much talked of board Of arbitra-
tors Of the differences between the
miners and the owners Of the mines Of
the northeast, which have been in
session, taking evidence from ell sides
and quarters for nearly six months,
reached q conclusion of it's labors on
the Goth inst. In brief the Oom-
mission recommends:
A general increase Of wages amount.
ing in most instances to 10 per cent.
Some decreases Of time.
The settlement Of all disputes by
arbitration.
Fixes q minimum wage and q sliding
scale.
Provides against discrimination Of
persons by either the mine owners
or the miners on account Of member
ship or non-membership in q labor
union, and provides that the awards
made shall continue In force until
March 81, 1905.

extent the matter Of recognition or
non-recognitiOn Of the miners' union,

this qcestiOn.

The farmhouses in Norway are an

Chicago RecOrd-H Herald. There Is al
ways q mating Of pine bOughs spread
before the door to wipe your feet on.
The barns and the cattle are sCrupu-
lousy clean. The NOrwsgians do mot
take so much pains with them, how
ever, as is done in Holland, where the
people curry the COWS and rub them
down every morning and eVsninglike
The horses, and often, particularly
near the towns, hang lace curtains in
the stable windows.
There seems to be a close relation
between the human kind and their
animals. The men and women talk
to the horses and cattle siftheywerO
understood. We had q "skydsgut,S
or driver, the other day, who held con.
tinuous conversation with his horses.
Every time he came to g hill hswould
walk beside them and talk to them
eli the way up in a gentle caressing
sort Of way, like a child talking to 3
doll, and once, when he stopped for
water and the near horse wanted to
drink more than the driver thought
was good for him, he scOlded like an
old woman. The horse shook his
head and ratified his harness impa-
tiently, as much as to say: "YOu get
back onto your box and attend toyOul
business. aud I'D attend tOminA"

An attache Of one Of the Federal
courts recently called attention to the
falling OF Of business, both civil and
criminal, in the United States Circuit
and Criminal courts, and the ques-
ton is suggested, is this because the
people are getting better or because
the courts are more lax In the the n
forcements Of the laws. In the civil
role It is more rational to conclude
that the falling OF in litigation Is due
to the fact that people generally are
learning that there iS not much to be
gained by law suits. In most Of the
small cases brought the parties suing
might much better let the claim go
than to take The chances Of recover.
ing on It at the end Of q suit. Law
yers who have standing sufficient to
enjoy the confidence Of litigants are
steadily becoming more inclined to
advise against suits Of this nature,
and the people are saved the immense
expense and loss Of time in sending
good money after bad in this manner.
In the criminal code the question may
be guessed at from almost any stand
point one chooses. Criminals are
probably as plentiful rs they ever
were, but they are more speedily dis
posed of now, If they happen to be Of
the more ignorant class, than in the
days Of old, while the sleek criminal
lays his plans well and avoids detec-
ton altogether and thus saves the
courts the trouble Of running him
through the mill. Terms Of court
which used to occupy two or three
weeks time, are often wound up now
in as many days, and frequently the
business in hand is so small as to
warrant terms to be predemitted.

W FEEDS

Consumption is a human
weed hourishing best in weak
lungs. Like other weeds its
easily destroyed while young;
when old, sometimes inn
possible.
Strengthen the lungs as you
would weak land and the
weeds will disappear.
The best lung fertilizer is
SCOTS Emulsion. Salt pork
is good too, but it is very hard
to digest.
The time to treat consump-
ton is when you begin trying
to hide it from yourself.
Others see it, you won't.
Don't wait until you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
Begin with the first thought
to take SCOTS Emulsion. If
it isn't really consumption so
much the better; you will soon
forget it and be better for the
treatment. IF it is consump-
ton you can't expect to be
cured at once, but if you will
begin in time and will be
rigidly regular in your treat
ment you will win.
SCOTS Emulsion, fresh air,
rest all you can, eat all you
can, that's the treatment and
that's the best treatment.
