10 Replace Negro Porters.

The demand made by the trainmen Of
the Missouri Pacific system to replace
the negro porter by white brakemen
has been partially granted by the off
Gals of that company. Instructions
have been sent out from the general
offices to the effect that beginning with
September I no negro porters will be
hired by the company. and all coloreG
p0rters hired recently viii be discharged
and their places filled by white men.
All negro porrers who have been in
the employ Of the company any great
length of time will be retained, at least
those who have been in the service long
er than a year.
While this action is to the advantage
of the trainmen, it makes the cost of
operating passenger trains more. Negro
porters are secured for less money than
brakemen. The pay of a brakeman on
a passenger train is less than those in
the freight service. and for that reason
there never has been great kick made
by the trainmen. However. thare are a
few Of the brakemen who would rather
be in the passenger service earning. less
money than in the freight service
The new order will not materially at
feet the negro porters working out Of
this city as most of them have been in
the employ OF the company for Years

FREE KINDERGARTEN
DIRECTORS MEETING

Even to read the Bible to the inmates
some of the houses of the Chinese in
Honolulu are not fit to enter on ac-
count of the dirt and the possibility
of disease. Such is the opinion OF
Mrs. Thompson, who has been carrying
on the sanitary work of the Free Kin
dergarten and Children's Aid Society
and was expressed at the meeting OF
the directors yesterday.
There were thirteen directors at the
meeting, presided over by Mrs. Ellza-
beth Waterhouse, and the work of the
sanitary department was mainly de- q
with. The kindergarten looks after the
health of it's 500 pupils in the hVe
schools and many adults are also
treated for various diseases. ltcn
among the Orientals and ophthalmlt
among the Hawaiians are the preYa-
lent disorders. The doctors of the city
are very generous in their treatment OF
these cases but a fund for surgical
dressings is needed by Mrs. Thompson.

jim Whit, twice convicted OF
the murder Of Buster Thomason
in Tate county in 1903, and twice
given the death sentence. has for
the second time had his case re-
versed and remanded by the Su-
preme Court. On the hearing of
the appeal from the last judg-
ment the supreme court reversed
the finding Of the jury on the
ground that the district attorney
in closing the case made illusions
to the defendant which should not
have gone before the jury. The
court, it seems. has of late, adopt
ed the rule Of turning down all
verdicts where the prosecution
makes damaging reference to the
defendantor the manner in which
his case is conducted. District
attorneys are restricted within
very narrow limits in their argu-
ments, while on the other side
the field is open.

The primary election in oursls-
ter state, Arkansas, last week
resulted in Congress Little from
the Fort Smith district being
nominated for governor. MI.
Little has served in the legisla-
ture as district attorney, judge,
and has been continuously in con-
gress since 1894. He is in close
touch with the movement to build
up the state in diversified indus
tries and will attract immigration
and capital to his state by a con-
servative and progressive policy.

One of the good things that
comes to the people of Arkansas
in electing Jeff Davis to the sen
ate is the fact that he will not be
tho governor of the state. Ar
kansas has not profted by elect
ing him governor and it is to be
hoped that he will be less a men
ace to the material progress OF
the state as a senator than ne
has been as governor.

coincidence to Percy W. Maer,

in the death of his mother which
occurred at her home in Column

for many years the editor and

succeeded under her guidance as
few weekly papers do. She was
a brilliant woman and welded a
fine influence over all matters
that looked to the upbuilding OF
her city and the state generally.

A writ of habeas corpus was
sued out before Chancellor Rob-
ms Saturday through which a
groom seeks to gain possession
of his bride who had been de-
tanned by members Of the brides
family. The groom is a Mr..
Hatley of Chickasaw county and
the bride is a daughter of Mr.. J.
A. Reifus Of near Shannon. The
family of tie bride objected to
the marriage and like all true
lovers the groom stole his bride
and were married before the old
folks knew what was going on.
The bride was overtaken by her
father and returned home and
the groom could not get posses
sion of her except through a le-
gal process. The writ of habeas
corpus was placed in the hands
of the sheriff and a deputy was
sent down and the young lady
brought to Tupelo and delivered
to the sheriff. She was carried
to the sheriff's home where she
will remain until the hearing of
the case which is set for tomor-
row.

1t is now suggested that it will
be necessary for the governor to
call an extra session of the legis-
lature to complete the work OF
revising and arranging the new
code. AS a large majority of the
members have no crops to plant
they will not be rushed by the
seasons, but the farmer members
must evidently be getting rest

The Revenue Agents Settlement

The Office Of the Board OF
Supervisors was crowded the
first two days Of the session with
those who had been summoned
to be present and show cause
why they should not be assessed
for back taxes for the amounts
and years stated in the notice
which had been mailed them the
latter part of February. When
these notices were sent out they
created great CONSERVATION
among the people, many of whom
thought that they would be put
to great expense and trouble to
get the matters settled. MIR.
Percy Clifton, the representative
of the State Revenue Agent, who
worked up the records, arrived
Thursday of last week and has
been making settlements with
those who have been in. Mr..
Clifton, the people find is a most
affable agreeable and courteous
gentleman and has made it easy
and pleasant with those sum
moned before him to make theil
settlements. He has not been
exacting, but has shown a most
liberal disposition in his dealing:
with our people.
The amount of back assess
ments will probably reach $75,
600, and the amount of taxes t.
be collected on this will reacl
81, 900. Of this amount the rev
enue agent under the law is en-
titled to 20 per cent. the remain
der to go to the county treasury
less the sheriff's commission. TIL
investigation has gone back t.
1886. Taking this long period o
time into consideration, tn
amount is remarkably small, be
ing only about fifty dollars
year for the past twenty years
which the people of the count.
have failed to pay into the treas
ury as taxes according to tn
revenue agent. 1t is a remarka
BILE showing and the people of tn
county should congratulate them
selves that they have such
clean record. We doubt if an.
county in the state can make a
good showing. Mr. Clifton lief
yesterday for Itawanlba county
where he meets the Board O.
that county to make settlemen
with those who have been sum
moned to appear on back ia,
assessments.

REPUBLICANS CAN,
DEMOCRATS CAN'T
An Able Speech By Brilliant Speaker
Was Made at the Court House
By Mr.. Robertson

thousands of homes to the American
people, was secured by the Republi-
cans after having been tumed down
by the Democrats.
The protective tariff, he said, in
addition to the many after things it
has done, furnished the farmer with a
good market and the laboring man
with work. Under it the job hunts
the man, but under the Democratic
rule and free trade given us by the
Democrats the man hunted for a job
did not find it. He said it is. the la
boring man who keeps money it cir
culation and not the capitalist, and
as an illustration pointed to the Demo
cratic period of free trade under the
Democratic administration, the sup
position being that laboring men had
been receiving but 81 per day for
work, which meant three millions of
dollars per day being withdrawn from
circulation, because statistics show
that many lab0rlng men were OUT OF
employment while the Democrats
were giving us a practical demonstra
tion Of what free trade and low mark
cts to buy in will do for the country
Again he supposed that the laboring
men had been receiying So per day, in
which case it meant the withdrawal
of six millions of dollars from daily
circulation.
He stated that of all the promises
the Democrats had been making, on
first one thing and another but one
had been kept, and that was the re-
peal of the Mckinley tariff law, and
the Democrats we're cussing Grover
Cleveland till yet for giving them just
what they had been wanting for so
many year.

Judge Robertson certainly told the
truth last night when he stated that
the Democratic argument in the pre-
sent campaign consisted principally
Of abuse Republican officials and crit
icism Of the Republican party. The
first thing one heard on ne streets
this morning was the expression that
Judge Gill caught "h--l," last night
at the opera house. Robertson made
the assertion just about the same
the Democrats we're scoring Judge
Gill for some iminagery cause.
Marshal Darrough presided over
last nights meeting, and Mr.. Robert
soon made strong and convincing
argument, the feature of which was
the lack of occasion to abuse a Demo-
cratic official or the Democratic party.
Mr.. Robertson reviewed the doings
Of the two great parties from 1860 up
to the present time, and made ii quite
plain that the Democrats had not
accomplished a single thing from that
time to this except bring ruin TO the
country fora period Of four years.
He sad "can't" was very popular
word with the Democracy. They
commenced using it back in the six
ties when the payment of the nation
al debt was being discussed in Con-
gress. They then said we CAN'T pay
the war debt. Republicans insisted
that we could, would and did pay it.
He said he never heard a Democrat
ic speech that was an appeal to broad
minded humanity. He never heard a
Democratic speech that was not an
appeal to prejustice. The Republican
party, he said, stands for preservation
Of the cotntry, one country and one
flag with equal privileges to all, pro-
lection and prosperity, and that the
Republican party had always been
found equal to all emergencies.
Mr.. Robertson reclted the hard
times that followed the civil war and
told how the Republicans, in the face
Of opposition from the Democracy,
had raised the money and paid the
debt without interfering with the in
dustrIal and commercial interests of
the country, but on the other hand
how the infant industries had been
protected and the country caused to
prosper. And how the protective tsr-
if had served two purposes, one to
protect industries and the other to
pay the debt.
He told of the adoption OF the
homestead law, which had given

FIRE THREATENS
CITY OF vINITA

An alarm was turned in at the lire
department today at ll;05a M, from
the Blackstone hotel. In less than
five minutes the tremen We're on the
scene ready to protect property from
what nighU have been a heavy loss
lad il not been for presence Of mind
being put into prompt action by the
hotel employees and boarders. A small
boy whose mischief yearnings turned
his head against the warnings Of old
er people set fire to the grass in a
yard adjoining on the north A strong
north wind was blowing and the flames
swept across the lot TO the hotel
where the occupants succeeded in
IN extinguishing them just as the fire
company arrived. Atmospheric con
dItions were favorable greatly to the
spread Of fire here this morning and
the firemen are worthy of commenda-
tion for their prompt response.
At2 p. m. a second alarm Of fire was
turned in today. A vacant lot in the
west end had been set fire to In some
unaccountable way and before any
thing could be done an area Of an acre
was ablaze, the flames circling around
barn and quickly making way to-
ward the surrounding houses. Neigh
bors came TO the rescue but we're un-
able to do anything more than TO car
ry movable property to places OF safe
ty. But again the fire department
made good showing and this time
had a chance to show the people what
they could do. No city service could
have been any more valuable. II was
a short time until hose was connected
from three directions and the fire was
brot under control in time to save
everything but the dead grass.
These Two close calls today ought to
put careless people on the guard
against such losses as this city vas
threatened to sustain today; and as for
the fire boys, they each deserve a
medal.
