ANENT THE SUNDAY Law
Editor Of The Mesehae9b6 :.

Editor Of q The Mesehacebe
The recent attempts to enforce the.
Sunday law in this parish deserve COM
ment on that law.
The Sunday law infringes one Of The
rights granted sus by the national consI
6tution. Our forefathers, in pre- -
eating that immortal monnnes :
p aAan .gsedom, eyplieitlJ tbfuasi "a.
siberty of thought, of speech, and M &C.
ton. They recognized the great princis
pie Of individual liberty; principle.
upon which rests the advance in ciullza-
ton of the whole world.
The above law infringes upon the L.
berty of action. 1t arrogates o.itself
the right of regulating our Individual
concerns. 1t presumes to dictate-t to us
the conduct of our affairs. IFS strict en-
forcement would pave the way for other
measures which would tend to destroy
individual spontaneity. Each man poe
sesses absolute liberty of action as far
as his acts do not encroach upon the
rights of others. And here arises a fine
point about which much has been said
and nothing definitely settled Should
person be allowed to behave in such a
manner as to offend the moral rectitude
of his fellowmen, at sthe same time not
violating any of their legal rights ? a
man may use obscene language in his
field in my hearing without being anne
nable to law, but were he to do SO in a
public place, whether some one heard
him or not, he were liable to arrest and
legal prosecution. In each case the. act
is entirely volitive: but in the first place
lit is not considered prejudicial to any
one but himself. while in the latter we
assume it to invade the right of others.
Even should that man conduct himself
In such manner in his own house were
it in plain hearing of my residence he
would be under the jurisdiction of the
law.
Then let us discuss the issue from this
standpoint.
Does the opening Of places of businssv.
on Sundays offend our moral sensibih-
ties The advocates of Sunday law
concede that their sensibihties are not
wounded at the sight of an open place
of business on any day but Sunday.
But by its very nature that sensitive
ness must be wounded at such sight at
any time for it is altogether indepen-
dent of an effort of the will it is the
effect of outside impressions over which
we have absolutely no control.
Then if we can so.control ourselves
as to render the sight innocuous on week
days the affectation of susceptibility at
its presence on Sundays is mere caprice
and should not be tolerated.
The honest but misguided gentlemen
who have been working for the enforce
ment of this law shonld turn their at
tention to other matters and direct their
energies in other channels-the enforce
ment Of the game law, for instance
where they would be productive of more
good.

College Endowment.

President w. T. Lowery of Mississ-
ippi College, who is engaged in cam
paign to raise an additional endow-
ment Of $4,000 for the institution,
conditioned on which the American
Baptist Educational Society will give
$4,000, states that he has up to the
present time secured $4,000 toward
the fund, and from now on the work
will be steadily pushed until the
$4,000 needed is secured.
DR.. Lowrey is confident that he will
achieve success in his undertaking, al
though the progress Of the work has
been somewhat slow since the begin
ming OF the new year.
Other collegiate endowment move
ments are making steady progress.
Mi1lsaps college has within the last
eight months secured nearly $4,000
towards the additional endowment of
100000 for that institution. Bishop
Theo. DuBose Bratton Of tn Episco-
pal diocese of Mississippi, has pied
ges of about $4,000 toward the fund
being raised for the Establishment of a
diocesan college.

Chairman Kyle Of the house con
mittee on humane and benevolent
institutions, has submitted the fol
lowing report on the Vicksburg chaI*
ity hospital:
Mr.. Speaker Your committee OF
humane and benevolent institution
beg leave to submit the following re-
port of INSTRUMENTATION Of the state
charity hospital at Vicksburg:
Under the direction of the legisla-|
ture, we have visited this institution
and thoroughly examined into all the|
details Of its management and condi-
ton, and we feel it our duty to state.
of all the charitable institutions of
our state, there is not one more ef-'
fciently managed or more honestly
or economically conducted than this;
nor is there one that is doing more
efficient work in the cause Of human
ity. Our investigation has been thor
ough and searching and systematic,
covering every department of the
management and every detail of each
department. We found the hospital
In cleanly, sanitary condition and the
patients well attended; every care
necessary to their comfort and health
being given by DR.. Martin, the sur
geon in charge, and his able corps Of
assistants apd ,,urcac
1t is our idea that paupers are hui
man, as well as those in more prosper
porous circumstances and that they
should receive from the state that
care and treatment necessary from
physical affection, beyond their meas
ure to cure. In this connection we
feel warranted in saying that this
hospital is meeting every demand and
fulfilling the purpose Of its creation
by meeting our charity in the true
Christian spirit, in relieving the sick
and needy. Under the efficient SER
vices of the surgeon in charge, assist
ed and supported by the board Of
trustees, we believe that the work
done here for the relief Of suffering
humanity is surpassed by none and
equaled by few Ike institutions in
the south. We do not think that too
much can be said in concentration Of
DR.. Martin, whose heart seems to be
in his work, who devotes his time,
talent and energies without stint to
the success of his important charge;
and we would recommend that his
salary be increased to $1,000 per
year.

drew d. White, former Ambassador

Cornell students yesterday came out
strongly in favor of lynching. He
quoted Goodwin Smith in saying there
were communities in the United
States where lynch law was better
than any other, and excoriated the
maudlin protest against summary dis
posal Of murderers and ravishers. He
said that only one in forty-six MUIR
derers is legally executed.
Within the next year." he contin-
ued, thine thousand persons will be
brutally killed, destroyed by human
hyenas. My sympathy goes out to
them and their families, not to the

MISSISSIPSI STATE
HAPPENINGS
ITEMS OF INTEREST FROM ALL
SECTIONS.
an EPITOfE OF TIE NEWS
Quilted From the Important Happen
ings Throughout the State During
the Past Week and Reviewed in
Brief.
Was Great Success.

The grand lodge Of Mississippi ma
sons which had its annual session at
Brookhaven during the past week was
q success in every way. The atten-
dance was large, the entertainment
furnished by the local Brookhaven
people was all that could be wished
for and much good was accomplished
in a business way. C. H. Blum, the
Grand Master-elect Of the grand lodge
Of the Mississippi Masons, who is a
prominent business man Of Shelby,
has the distinction Of being the first
Jew to hold that Office. In his election
is noted a novel coincidence. He is
. nephew by marriage Of Julius Yaret-
zky, the grand tyler, who has behind
him many years of honorable service
as doorkeeper Of the Mississippi
grand lodge.
One Of the principal matters en-
gaging the attention Of the grand
lodge was the proposed Widows and
Orphans Home, for which an endow-
ment fund exceeding $4,000 is now
on hand. The question of location
was left open, and a committee ap-
pointed to entertain bids and select
a location within the next six months.
The grand lodge appropriated $1,000
for the home endowment fund.
The grand lodge will meet in 1907
at Natchez.

Trust to the Faith Cure.

A band of so-called "faith curists
has reaped harvest of money and
jewelry among the negroes and poor
whites Of Vicksburg during the past
week. The operAtions of the fakirs
were reported to the police, various
victims complaining that they had
been defrauded out of nearly 1000.
Taking case, the "faith healers"
would tell their patients that to eff
feet a cure it was necessary for them
to turn over all their worldly posses
sions for a period of nine days. This
the victims did, In the meantime

house and $4,000 for the erection

the limit allowed by the Code of 1892.
