Another legislative bit of care
lessness has developed. Examina-
ton of the appropriation bills shows
that no allowance was made for the
agricultural experiment station to be
located in the prairie region of
Northwest Mississippi. The legis-
lature appropriated $4,000 for the
station to be established in the delta,
but no allowance was made for the
other station, and after it is located
by the board of trustees il is proba-
Bile that the station will have to be
supported from the Mississippi A.

board will select two sites early next

NO ATTEMPT TO DISGUISE,


st. Petersburg Admits lie Forcing
Of kwanS-Tung leans Much.
st. Petersburg, May 29.-There is no
attempt here to disguise the fact that
the successful forcing of the neck of
kwan-Tung peninsula puts a practical
end to resistance to the enemy until
he reaches the actual Notifications
around Port Arthur. Although there
are many strong positions in the more
than rs miles before the perimeter of
the fortress is reached, THE AU.
THORITIES ADMIT THAT THE
RUSSIANS CAN OFFER LITTLE RE-
SlSTANCE, and must retire with
in the fortress and undertake to de-
fend themselves against a siege. Meth
er the admiralty nor the general staff
has any direct information. Like the
outside world, the admiralty and gen.
eral staff are dependent entirely upon
the enemy for news. Native reports,
which may be of same value, are, how.
ever, expected shortly.
While there is no disposition tn
~
question the main facts sent out of.
ficially from Toxic, some unofficial re-
ports from Japanese sources are be-
ing received with caution. The i'm.
possibility of holding the advance posi-
tons around Kin Chou in the face of
overwhelming odds has all along been
admitted, but on account of the char
acter OF the position, as well as its
defenses, the general staff can not hut
believe that the defense must have
been heroic, and that the positions
were only taken by a display of des.
perate courage and at a frightful cost
h early news was received in a
calm spirit by both the public and the
newspapers, BUT IF THE LATEST
REPORT THAT THE JAPANESE
CAPTURED 80 GUNS is CON.
FIRMED, 1t is SURE that the effect will
be much deeper, and is certain to he
considered a severe blow. Until that
report arrived the feeling was that
the Russians had retired in good or.
der; but if this number of guns was
taken, 1t will put a different com.
ple%ion upon things, though II Is CON.
eeivable here that if the Japanese Cd.
Grating fleet landed forces at San-shi.
Ll'Phu and ~Talienwan, and got in the
G of the Russian positions. the
abandonment of the guns might hava
become necessary. This view, how.
ever will hardly diminish the extent
OF the disaster,

Reached High Water Mark,

The legislature which adjourned
il March cost the taxpayers of the
State a few dollars. A few DAYS
since Auditor Henry gave out
figures showing what the legislature
had appropriated and what it had
cost the State. The members of the
house drew $53,229 as per diem and
S3,6SS.40 as mileage, Senate mem
bers drew $l6,SSl in salaries and
Sl,2l6.90 in mileage, The contin-
gent expenses of the house foot up to
$~9,25S.5l, while that Of the senate is
~$1,95l.51. The appropriations made
by the legislature amounted to So
l12,5S9.64. The legislature of 1909
cost S65,j66.43, while the appro-
priationS were 1886, 6Sl.62. 1t will
thus be seen that the last legislature
reached the high-water mark as to
expenses aud appropriations.
