Taxing Camp Grounds

/. IS more than likely that there
is going TO be reconsideration of
the bill which passed the senate 4
few days since eNempting camp
meeting grounds and other church
property from HNation. The bill
passed the senate with but two nay
votes. however, it was recominltted
and will probably be reported adj
versely This is bill that was
drawn in the interest of the camp
grounds at Crystal Springs and on
the seashore. against which the
state revenue agent had proceeded
to collect taxes for several years
back because the property was not
used exclusively for church pur-
poses. 1t is said TO have been ex-
planned to the committee having the
bill in charge that the seashore
camp grounds are dotted all over
with handsome homes built by sum
mer visitors, from New Orleans and
other cities, and known to the camp
ground owners as tents. The sites
for these tents are leased at so
much per year, and hold like lease

next regular meeting the Mississippi
railroad commission VII endeayor fs
reach satisfactory adjustment Of
the party rate question. which has
been pending before the body for the
last two weeks. Theatrical organiza
tons and baseball teams have beer
elamoring for two-cent rate, appii-
cable to parties of ten or more per
sons The Y & NJ v. road gives
notice that IT is offering a rate OF
two and one-falf cents for parties of
ten or more, which may be obtained
upon application at any local agency.
The other roads have been singu-
larly silent on the a+bject.
1t is The eopinion OF at least two
members Of the commission that the
railroads ought to grant a two-cent
rate for parties of ten or more, and
unless the railroads will voluntarily
issue a rate of. this character, it is
very likely that it will be summarily
ordered at the next meeting of the
commission.

ture today deploring the frequency
OF reversals in criminal cases, and
urging a revision OF the criminal
code. He asks that state board
of pardons be created and that his

in resurrecting the railroad rate bill,
fixing the passengerfare at II cents

preparation bills, passing measures
for the department of archives and
history, state board of health, and
giving $4,000 to purchase silver

One of the most important meas
ures pending before the legislature
is the Bailey bill to regulate the in

senate last evening and now goes to
the lower house for consideration
The only important amendment in
corporated in the bill provides that

tain 3I-2 percent. fat and 10 per
cent protein The original bill pro-
vided for IS per cent fat and protein
combined It was conelusively

Southern railway in Mississippi has
decided to obey the law limiting the
hours that railway tranmen and tie

after the news was sent out to the
press that the order was rescindcd.
The men continued 0 work under
the old regime several days after the

superintendent Hatcher. who is the
official representative of the company
III this city, said that the question as
TO whether an interstate line, which
the Southern railway in Mississippi
claims to be, Is amcnable tor inter
state legislation involves nice legal
point, and that rather than risk a
fight in the courts. the officials de-
eided to comply with the new law.
