DEATH OF SENATOR POllARD'S FATHER.

Senator j, L, Seawright, of Choc.
taw county offered the following
resolution in the State Senate, one
day last week, relative to the death
of Senator K. V. Pollard's father,
which was unanimously adopted;
Whereas, our worthy and distin-
guished friend and fellow senator,
Hon r v Pollard, has been called
away from the discharge Of his du-
ties on this floor by the death of his
venerable father, which sad event
took place at his Tennessee home on
yesterday, therefore be it
Resolved, that we tender TO Sem
ator Pollard and his family our
heartfelt sympathy and sincere con-
dolence in this hour Of deepest grief
and supreme bereavement.
Resolved further, that the secre-
tary Of the senate be and he is here
by instructed to furnish Senator
Pollard with a copy of these resoln-
tons, and that as a further mark of
respect the senate do now adjourn
until 3 o'clock this afternoon"

BUCKLEY APPOINTED JUDGE.

Gov. Noel has appointed and the
Senate has confirmed Hon. J. l..
Buckley, Of Enterprise, as circuit
Judge Of the tenth district, vice
Judge Cochran, Of Meridian. Judge
Cochran has gained a great deal Of
~notoriety by the rough way in which
he handled his courts, d~ischarging
juries when they went contrary TO
his ideas Of what they should do,
and lecturing them in a way that
was calculated 10 cause difficulties.
A year ago he horse-whjpped a
drummer, while one OF bis friends
held a drawn pistol on the drum
mer, who had criticised him in a
hotel at Meridian, and was declared
not guilty by the city court. Mr..
Buckley is one Of the most promi-
nent lawyers Of the district, has
served his district in the Senate and
in other capacities. -C arrollton Con
sentative.
The Commonwealth ~rejoice8 with
the good people Of Mr., Buckley's
district upon his appointment as
circuit Judge. That Cochran should
have been turned down there is no
question in the minds of the best
people throughout the State. He
made himself ridiculous on nearly
every occasion, and was a self-ap-
pointed dictator and tyrant in the
court, from the best information we
have been able to get. His success
or, Judge Buckley, is a polished
gentleman, a learned lawyer, and
will make the people a safe, fair and
conservative official. There is moth
ing Of the "grand-stand play" in
his makeup, and the bar, jurors
and clients will receive that respect
which is due them in his courts.
Gov. Noel could not have made a
better appointment in selecting
Cochran's successor, and we most
heartily congratulate him upon it,

PROSPERITY RETURNING.

A recent special from New York
gives the following cheerful outlook
relative to the business situation:
In view of the recent presence
in this city Of nearly 1000 retail
buyers and the expected arrival of
another delegation no less numerous,
optimism seems to be the ruling
note in the wholesale district. The
opinion is freely expressed to-day
by proprietors and managers of
large houses that the prosperity of
the country is fast returning to lis
old level, and that retail merchants
of the large cities and towns of the
country needed only a little more
confidence to induce them to place
orders on the scale which prevailed
just before the panic.

CHANGING CONGRESSMAN.

The Jackson News says that with
every member Of the Mississippi
delegation in congress being OPP
posed for reelection, barring only
John Sharp Williams, who retires at
the expiration Of his present term,
the political campaign during the
approaching summer promises to be
as warm as the weather.
1t is unscemly, Of course, to dis
courage the political ambitions of
any worthy man, and we would not
be regarded as ~detracting from the
merits Of any aspirant, present or
prospective, but it is nevertheless
wise and proper to warn the quail
fed electors that they should be
very cautious in making changes.
1t cannot be denied in any quart
er that the present members of the
Mississippi delegation in congress
are worthy representatives OF their
constituents, and that they have put
forth their best efforts for the public
welfare.
Gambler, Spight, Humphreys, Hill,
Byrd, Bowers and Mclean are names
to conjure with. These seven gen
tlemen have each served several
terms in congress, and by dint of
constant attention to duty, energy,
tact and diplomacy, have won for
themselves much repute among the
national lawmakers.
True, rotation in office, and divis-
ion Of honors, are cardinal princi-
pies Of a republican form Of govern
ment, and it is eminently proper
that our officers should not be elect
ed for life terms, but at the same
time a public servant who has prov
en- his efficiency and worth is enti-
tied to a larger share of considera-
ton than a man who is inexperi-
enced and untried, New brooms
sweep clean sometimes, and some
times they don't.
The voter who honestly believes
that a new aspirant for congress will
make a better representative than
the present incumbent should by all
means vote for the new man. II in
doubt about it, stick to the mar who
is now serving you.
1t took eight years Of constant SER
vice in congress to develop the gen
Jus and craftsmanship Of John Sharp
Williams, but the result was worth
while. 1t may prove true with 9TH
er members of our delegation.

OUR COUNTY ROADS.

FROM all sides comes glowing re.
ports Of the rapidly with which our
county roads dried out after the re-
cent heavy rains. The Oak Ridge
road TO Friars Point, in particular,
shows very little effects from the de-
luge, and leaning was continuous
thereon throughout the rainy spell.
All this is certainly a tribute to
the foresight Of the wisdom of the
Board Of Supervisors in spending
so much money on the roads, and
likewise to the skill and energy Of
Captain Likens in building such
%serviceable highways. Coahoma al
ready has the best roads in the state,
and the movement to improve them
may still be said to be in its infancy
- Clarksdale Register,
The public roads Of Letlore county
have also been wonderfully i'm
proved under the contract system of
working them, Our Board Of SUI
pervisors is determined to have good
roads in every part of LeHore county
and we commend them for their
good Judgment in the matter.
Nothing speaks better for a com
munity than good roads.

The election Of ex-Gov. Bradley
as U. S. Senator by the Kentucky
Legislature, by aid Of four renegade
Democrats, will unquestionably place
the electoral vote Of that State in
the Republican column for years to
come. Governor Beckham had won
the Democratic nomination before
the people of his State, and it was
the duty of every Democratic mem
Der of the legislature to Loyalty sup
port him. Instead of doing this
four of them voted for a Republican
TO represent them in the u. S. SEN
ate-this, too, in the face Of the
fact that Beckham withdrew and
plead with them to name some other
Democrat for the place and his fol-
lowers would vote tor and elect him!

PENALTY SUITS
 TO BE DISMISSED

Little Rock, Ark, Nov. 2o.- Before the end of the day Prose cutting Attorney Campbell will en- ter dismissal in the circuit court of the suits for penalties, directed at the Iron Mountain and Rock Island railroads, which placed the Railroad Commission in contempt of the United States circuit court, according to the decision of Judge Jacob Trieber, and other means will be resorted to by the commits sion to force the railroads to aban- don their present excessive freight rates. It is thought that the com mission will file in the United States court, an action which will make the railroads come forward and show their present. rates are not excessive, even though they are from 100 to 800 per cent higher than were the rates of the railroads before the mission was organ ized. The renewal of the set of books the state has received in the Federal court on all propositions yet fought out there on the rate question, has only added to the de termination of the commission and its attorneys, to bring out the rail- roads and make them come to time, giving the people of the state some thing reasonable. For two hours yesterday attorneys for the state,
 Roy D. Campbell, Attorney Gen eral Kirby and Congressman Joe T. Robinson, talked before Judge Tiieber, while the attorneys for the railroads, Col. J. M. Moore and Tom Buzbee, never made a suggestion after their case was stated. In the hearing yesterday Judge Trieber expressed a high regard for the commissioners per sonally, and also said the commis- sion had done much for the state and should be maintained, but he said the railroad, even though it is a railroad, must have some consid- eration for its property rights.
