illustrates this characteristic. AL
though progress has been made
steadily and work commenced,
there are those who imagine the
trains should be running now, and
their impatience is vetoed in all
manner Of complaints. A section
that has been settled nearly an
hundred years, and had no rail-
read, seems to get more nervous
as the time approaches for the
realization Of their hope. There
is scarcely room any longer for a
doubt that the road will be com.
pleted during the present year,
and nervous kicking will not bur-
ry the work in the slightest de.
gree.
The effort on the part of the
present Governor OF Mississippi
to create the impression that the
grand old state has made such
wonderful progress under bis I'D.
ministratiOn, is a stroke of ar.
rOgance that would make those
acquainted with the executive and
who have carefully watched his
course since in public life, smile.
The fact is that Mississippi can't
help but advance, despite the mar
rOWness Of the present admins
tratiOn, and it will continue to do
so in the future, no matter who
may be elected governor. Since
the state has been fortunate
enough during the past three
years to collect a large amount Of
money which had been due it for
many long years, the present ad-
ministratiOn has been enabled to
move along with the public i'm
provements, ordered by the legis-
lature, without embarrassment.
But one significant fact presents
itself at this time: A year ago
there was a great howl sent up
that there seemed to be nothing in
for the use Of the immense
amount Of state finds which had
accumulated in the treasury. A
large amount Of it even was loaned
out, some Of it at the suggestion
Of the Governor himself, to pri-
vate individuals and the banks at
a fact with which every
body is now familiar. But no
such worry is at present concern
ing the custOdians Of the surplus.
It has dwindled down and down
until it looks too small to be
"skeered' about taking care of.
Mr.. LOnginO has made s passable
governor In many respects, but
there has been absolutely nothing
nor noteworthy in his adj
ministratiOn over any other man
who has preceded him in the last
lew decades. In many ways be
has not brought to the Office as
much dignity and ability Is 9th.

The planters in the delta are

where their work is much needed.
A young woman in Indiana has
been asleep over six weeks, only
arOusing about once a week to
get something to eat, and then she
does not revive sufficiently to rec.
Ognize any one. For a young
lady to sleep through all the ies.

tough proposition.
The latest sensation from our
sister state Of Alabama is that
gold has been found at Admission,
seventy miles from Birmingham,
in sufficient quantities to make its
mining profitable. New York
people are much excited over the
find, and complain because no
stock is offered for sale by the
parties who own the land.
The newspapers of the state
don't seem to be impressed with
the proposition to substitute
statutory prohibition in Missis-
sippi. If the issue is forced by
the few who seem determined
upon such q course, it is very
probable that even the present
effective local option law will be
replaced by the old fashioned high
license system.
The courts Of Illinois have held
that illegal taxes collected from an
individual can not be reimbursed.
This may be good law, but it
hardly looks just. It hardly fits
snugly with the decision in this
state, that industrial institutions
exempted from taxation by the
legislature, for a term Of years,
are not really exempt, and must
now walk up to the captains
Office and pay back taxes for all
the years exempted.
