There is a growing disposition to
turn over to the federal government
the handling Of all quarantine regu-
lations which seek to prevent the
spread Of infectious diseases, says an
exchange. The government is bet
ter equipped to effectively do this
work, keeping at all times a COM
petent corps Of surgeons and scient
lists under pay who have but little to
do, and who could be brought into
active service on the shortest notice
All state jealousies would be done
with if the matter was proper
~ handled by the government and
the interest Of each state respected
from a business standpoint.

John Roblnson's Circus Coming.

An attractive line Of posters adjoining
the walls and billboards herald the com
ing to Greenwood on Friday, November
Gath, Of the John Robinson Shows. Like
old wine this organization improves with
age and each year finds them Offering the
pick of the amusement world for their
patrons. 1t wa the circus OF our faith
ers, yes wen our grandfathers, for this
is the eighty third successful season un-
der the management Of a John Robinson,
and it bids fair to eclipse all previous
efforts for no expense or pains have been
spared to furnish an entertainment that
will reflect with credit on the name of
Robinson. From the highest salaried
European artists to the merry old clowns
the program spells naught but novelty
and their coming will be a gala day for
the young and old alike.

RAYMOND, Miss, Nov. Ii, 05.
Editor Clarion-Ledger
| write to congratulate you on the
Morning Daily Clarion-Ledger." 1t
has come to ill a long felt want.
Surely the chief city Of the state
ought to have a morning daily.
While a refugee in a distant state
this last summer, | greatly enjoyed
reading your evening edition. And
nothing that you wrote pleased me
more than what you said about the
administration of Governor Longino.
| have known all of M~ississippi's
Governors, from Henry s. Foote,
who was elected in 1850 over Mr..
Davis, the greatest of the great, to
the present efficient encumbent of
that high Office.
Gov. John J. McRae signed the
act Of the Legislature that made me
of age, and | have in my possession
now, a paper signed by Gov. John
J. Pettus, authorizing me to raise a
military company for service in the
Confederate army. / have enjoyed
a personal acquaintance with each Of
the ten occupants of the executive
chair since the days of the war Gov
ernor, and am somewhat acquainted
with the administrations of all them.
In looking back over the whole
to which | have referred, /
give it as my honest judgment that
in faithfulness and ability, Gov.
administration takes rank
with the very best. His will be
in the future as the "busi-
ness administration of the state"
and no more important business was
disposed of during his time, than
the building Of a new capitol, and
the final settlement of the convict
question.
Instead Of buying poor, cleared
property in this delta farm, the ori
ginal cost Of the $4,000 acres being
in excess, if any, of the amount
paid for the little farms scattered
over the state, that are now Of little
real value to the state.
Mississippi has lead all of the
states on many lines, but
no way more signally than in the
building of a capitol and the dispos-
.ng OF the convict question.
Again congratulating you on the
Morning Daily, | am yours in every
good work for our great state.

SONS OF VETERANS
PASS RESOLUTIONS
Complimentary to Mrs. Lizzie
George Henderson.

The committee appointed by the
Mildred Humphreys Camp, Sons oil
Confederate Veterans, to draft reso,
lutions congratulating Mrs. Lizzie
George Henderson on her recent cleo
ton TO the position of President Cen
eral OF the National Association Of the
United Daughters of the C~onfederaey
at the recent convention in San Fran
cisco, Cal, has given out the follow
ing:
This high compliment to one who
has so strong a hold upon our esteem
and admiration is a source of the
greatest pride and satisfaction to US
as it is indeed to every patriotic citi-
zen not only of Lefiore County but Of
the State of Mississippi.
THE honor could not have been
more worthily bestowed and none of
all the noble daughters of the South
could wear it with more modest and
becoming dignity,
Mrs, Henderson was one Of the
Charter members of the J. z. George
chapter of II local Y. D. G. and
since that time she has been jealous
and tireless in the work.
"She has served as president Of the
local chapter and president Of the
State Association. To her in large
part is due the honor of building the
Confederate Annex to the Vicksburg
Sanitarium, and no one did more than
she to crown with success the move
ment which found its rich fruition in
the Soldiers Home at Beauvoir.
Resolved, therefore, that the Mil
bred Humphrey camp Sons of Con-
federate Veterans congratulate the
National Association upon the wis
dom and apteness of their action, and
felicitate the Daughters everywhere,
and more especially the members of
the J. z. George chapter, upon the
great honor which has been so worth
lily bestowed upon one of their most
Jealous members.
Resolved further, that these reso-
lutions be spread upon the minutes of
the camp and a copy sent to Mrs.
Henderson, and that the local papers
be requested to publish the same"

AN APPEAL.

AT a convention Of accredited del.
egates from various towns and vii.
lagos afflicted by the illegal sale Of
liquors in the form of c. 0. D. pack.
ages, held at the State House in
jackson on Nov. 9Th, it was resolved
to prosecute vigorously all illegal
sales of liquor, especially of the c.
o. d.. class; capable attorneys were
engaged, and the undersigned were
appointed a committee to raise funds
for the work. Witnesses will have
to be examined and their evidence
written down by stenographers,
some of the attorneys will have to
travel, and sundry other expenses
will be necessary. To meet these
we must raise a central fund. About
one thousand dollars will be needed
at once.
We appeal to the mayors, minis
ters and other men in prominent
positions in the various cities, towns
and villages where this G. @, D.
liquor l~awlessness prevails, to adopt
some method to Immediately raise
funds for our work. Some money
should be kept on hand for local use
In these various places; but we ask
that each village try to send us for
general use from ten to twenty-five
dollars according to size, and each
town about fifty, and each city at
least one hundred,
