Cotton BUYERS Tax.

State Auditor Smith has felt called
upOn to remind the various state and
county collectors of the provisions Of
the law regarding the collection of priv
ilege tax On cotton buyers. cotton seed
buyers, cotton weighers and others
whose activities are centered on the
marketing of the staple, to what seems
to have been an inadvertence Or over
sight. 1t seems that according to the
last report of privilege tax collections
the sheriffs have collected from these
industries only a pro rata tax or for d
part Of the year only, when, as q mat
ter OF fact, they are subject to a tax for
the entire year, Or from May to May, if
they have been engaged in the same
line during the past season, and the
full years tax must be collected.

Suicide Clause Set Aside.

The supreme court put a spoke In
the wheel of the so-called ''suicide
clause" in life insurance policies in de-
Gliding the case of the Home Life In
surance company VS.. Mrs. Laura Hyde,
in favor of the appellee. Justice
Mayes, in passing on the case, briefly
stated hat there was no reversible
error, the gist Of the case being that a
son OF the appellee had taken out a
policy for $4,000, and that within the
year. Notwithstanding the saving clause
contained in the policy, he had COM
mitted suicide, and the settlement was
contested on that ground. The jury
had properly found for the plaintiff
below, and in the opinion of the court
the finding was right, which meant an
affirmance.

Inc railroad commission was served
| with a restraining order against the
enforcement of its order, passed Sept.
%, whereby the Illinois Central. Yazoo
and Mississippi Valley, Mobile and
Ohio, Mobile, Jackson and Kansas City
and Queen and Crescent lines were d.
rected to make uniform rates on cotton
and its by-products to Gulfport.
Cotton Seed Market.
The cotton seed market In Mississippi
is showing some signs of weakening,
according to managers of local mills,
it will not be surprising if there is a
drop in price. Local mills are now
paying S14 per ton for seed, +. O.. b.. at
stations, and if there is a crop shortage
in this territory it is not evidenced by
the seed market, for offerings have
been much larger in volume than for
the same period last year.
Revision of Registration.
County boards Of election commits
sioners have completed the work of re.
vising poll and registration books for
the November election. About the
usual percentage of names were st-ick-
en- from the rolls because of the non.
payment OF poll taxes, removals and
other causes for disqualification.
Fighting the Boil Weevil.
The department. of agriculture has
issued special instructions to the corps
of boil weevil experts On watch in
Mississippi to commence an active cam
paign among the farmers and advise
them touching the best means to mini
tstthiae the damage from the pest, which
has now gained afoothold in this state.
Search for sorsby.
While public interest has not sub.
sided, there has been nothing new in
the search for Will Sorsby, the slayer
of Postofice Inspector Charles Fitz-
gerald. Besides the federal officials
who are believed to be numerously
scattered throughout this territory,
searching parties from this city have
been frequenting the places near by
whereby Sorsby might be reasonably
expected to stay, or at least to visit,
but if he has ever been seen by any
OF them, or anybody else, it has not
been made publicly known

Labor day was celebrated in Ogden yes

Disappointment was caused by the non

scheduled to speak at Glenwood park at
$3.50 o'clock in the afternoon.
Long before the hour set for the process

SHAKEUP IN THE OFFICE.
Several Southern Pacific Employees
Who Are Now Out,

1t is reported from reliable sources that
there has been a cleaning up in the local
offices of the Southern Pacific and that
within the past day or so three of the
head clerks, including the chief clerk to
Superintendent Z. c. Manson, have been
let out. Mr.. Manson denies the story ex-
cept in so far as 1t applies to one of the
timekeepers named Owen.
A short time ago much additional work
was placed in this office by abolishing
the auditors office in San Francisco and
ordering the auditing work to be done at
each division headquarters About two
weeks ago a representative Of the audi
tor visited the local offices and made a
lot OF changes as well as establishing a
long list of rules and regulations, which.
IL isNclaimed, has been the cause of con-
siderable dissenSion among the men. 1t
is also claimed that this had something
to do with the letting out of the men as
stated above.
The men who II is claimed, have been
dismissed are Tom S. Hoskit, chief clerk;
w. Murphy, head bookkeeper, and John
Owen, assistant bookkeeper, all of whom
have been identified with the Southern
Pacific for a long time. 1t Is also re-
ported that there will be number of
other changes in the personnel of the Of
flee force at this point, all of which. 1t
is said. is due to the intricate work of the
