The Legislature can have our hear
ty appreciation for two things it did.
One WIS its very wise ignoring of the
New Comfy Bill splitting Greene
and Jackson counties, another was
the creation of new Circuit Court
District. Owing to the large size Of
the old district and great amount OF
business this was quite a wise proyi
sion for this section.

N. o. Christian Advocate: The
great State of Mississippi has again
been scandalized, this time by one
holding high Office Of honor and
profit. Mr.. McNair, one of the Rail
road Commissioners, so far gave way
TO his appetite as to get under the
influence OF liquor, and beyond self
control. In this condition he became
noisy and offensive in the State Capt.
toll and disturbed the peace. He
also went to the Rankin county farm,
State convict farm, where in the
house, and at the table of the Ser
eeant in charge of the farm, be got
so noisy and profane, that he was
first taken to a private room, and
then by two convicts, under the or
der of the Sergeant, he was put in q
hack and started back to Jackson.
At the Capitol his noise and profan-
lty, it is said, was heard across the
street, to the disturbance of the
neighbors. The Senate and House
took the matter up and will investi-
gate After such an exhibition o.
himself, Mr.. McNair should not wait
for an investigation, or a request
from any body to resign his position
He should resign at once. However
worthy otherwise, man who vii
get drunk is not a suitable man fol
high office. His example is anything
but helpful to young men.

A MENACE To AMERICA
Report of Emigrant Inspector Braun
on Imnigration-FNoreign Priest and
Minister. He Declares. Is q Danger
Gus Meddler and Political: Agifafor.

Washington, January 1T.-Secretary
Metcalf of the department of commerce
and labor, today sent to the House the
report of special emigrant Inspector
Marcus Braun, on immigration.
Mr.. Braun declares that he mas IN
controvertable advance advice tha. i'm
migrants inadmissible for various rea-
sons are being constantly brought into
the country in large numbers by the
concerted action of some European
governments, and steamship agencies.
by bankers and schemers OF all sorts. ~
He declares that while these govern
ments have laws ostensibly intended
TO restrict immigration, instead of do
ing so they actually encourage it by
keeping alive the patriotic spirit for
the fatherland in the minds OF these
colonies by representing that unless
they adhere TO the principles of home
patriotism their governments would
leave them without protection in bar
barrie America This is especially
true, Mr. Braun says, in Italy and Hun
gary. He asserts that these countries
| iCSdIu lAC ouilCu NtdICc III CllC alti~
tude of adjuncts or colonies of their
own and by their instruction and
teachings to immigrants, benefit ac-
crues to the home government to the
detriment of this country. He cites
the fact that s50,000,00O was sent last
year from the United States to Aus
tria-Hungary alone from these immi-
grants. Not a single promise which
the new Hungarian immigrant law
guaranteed has been kept" he says.
Mr.. Braun states that in order to dis
courage Hungarians from becoming
American citizens the precaution is
taken to advocate the establishment
in the United States Of Hungarian
homes, schools, churches and institu
tions, the intention of which is to avert
''the terrible danger" Of Hungarians
becoming naturalized.
The immigration from the Turkish
domains, both in European and Asiatic
says Mr.. Braun. is nothing less than
a menace to this country; from there
we positively get the worst kind Of
people in the world. The foreign
priest and minister, he says, is most
most dangerous meddler and political
agitator 1t has become favorite ex-
preston, he says, to speak Of "our
colonies in America"

years to former Senator David B. Hill
by the Equitable Life Assurance Soci-

Hills request by a committee of the

before the association at it's annual

The resolution providing for the in.
Vestigation was offered by Mr. Hill
himself and adopted with but one dis
Senting voice. It -rovideS that the
grievance committee shall inquire
whether the retainer was excessive or
was for political services
Mr.. Hill in an address said that he
had left the office of Governor poorer
than when he entered it. and that the
retainer was very welcome. He said
the services rendered were wholly pro-
fessional. and declared that he had
never received during my whole thirty

for my political purposes or any polit-
ica1 services. I have never mingled

TEXAS STEER LEADS CHASE
Wild Animal Breaks From Herd and
Runs Ten Miles Before Being Taken.

Chicago, ILL.,, January IA Texas
steer created much excitement on the
south side Of the city this afternoon.
1t was the leading figure in a grand
race which commenced at the stock
yards, and ended ten miles away
The steer was one of a drove that
was being taken to the. stock yards and
it broke from the herd and ran. Two
cowboys took after it, and they were
joined in short time by policemen
on foot and in patrol wagons. After
a run of two miles along Grand Boule-
ward, the animal ran into Washington
Park and hid in some bushes. A num-
Der of cowboys caught up with the
chase at this point and followed by a
galloping squad of cavalry, the patrol
wagons and a small army of citizens
the steer tore through the park and
ran out the Midway Plaisance, taking
his way across a small pond On which
several hundred boys and girls were
skating. The chase then continued
on a straight course to Grand Cross
ing where the animal fell down anG
could run no more. 1t was then las
seed and led back to the stock yards.

READY FOR THE vENIREMEN
Trial Upon the Consolidation of In
dictments Against Them.

Savannah, Ga, January 11.-With
the decision of Judge Speer in the
federal court today that Greene and
Gaynor must be tried upon a cOnsoli-
dation of the indictments against
them, the last preliminary point at is
sue between the prosecution and the
defense was adjudicated and all is in
readiness for the swearing Of the
jury tomorrow at II O'Clock, the hour
fixed for the appearance of the venire-
men
Arrangements have been made for
the entertainment Of the trial jury at
one of the leading hotels of the city,
where every provision for their COM
fort will be made. It is estimated by
the attorney in the case that they will
be under the custody of the marshaLs
of the court, at least six weeks as the
the trial, it is believed will last quite
that long.
Colonel Meldrin in his argument for
the defendants said that the charges
in the indictments were separate and
distinct and grew out of alleged
crimes that were said to have been
committed at different times. The in
dictments could not for that reason, he
urged, be brought TO trial in a con-
solidated form.
Mr.. Akerrnan submitted section of
the revised statutes that leaves it tn
the judgment of the court as TO
whether in such cases defendants
shall be brought To trial upon the in
dictments separately or upon them all
combined Judge Speer appointed
this statute as applicable to the OBJ
lection raised and decided, since 1t
was in his discretion. that the 0bjec-
don should be oyerruled. The de-
fendants, therefore, will be brought 70
trial before jury tomorrow upon the
consolidation Of the indictments.
