MERIDIAN HIGH
SCHOOL CLOSES

MERIDIAN, Miss, May 22.-The
exercises of the Me
ridian High School at the opera house
last night were of a decidedly inter
esting character and those who were
present felt proud of the Meridian
public schools and the excellent show
ing made.
The annual address delivered by Dr
J. H. Phillips, superintendent OF
the birmingham schools, was mas
ter piece, and was we'll received by
the audience. He is an eloquent
speaker and the subject matter ol
his address was entirely appropriate
to the occasion. He not only pointed
out the higher ideals of life, but h'
showed the necessity of Christian
living and the wisdom of using wha
knowledge obtained in this life tol
the good of others. 1t was a red
gem and appealed to the higher as
pirations of all who heard the elo
quent speaker.

of social and other engagements which
consume their evening, frequently to
late hour. With the multiplicity of
demands upon their time there is
scant opportunity for the family altar
for instruction of the children in Bible
knowledge, for the nurture of Christian
character. In the present condition
of family life, the hope that the home
will supply the deficiencies of the day

election as Recorder, by a plurality OF

The opinion is general that the result
will not be altered by a denomination

From the Camden Post-Telegram

From the Camden Post-Telegram
Persons appe airing as plaintiff or de-
PENDANT, or as witnesses, before ajustice
of The peace sometimes complain be-
cause the newspapers publish their
names in that connection. The less
well informed are apt to assume that
the newspapers take an unwarranted
liberty in calling attention to proceed
ings in which they figure. The ques-
ton is occasionally asked of the news
apers, "By what right do you put my
name in the paper because 1 was be-
fore Justice Blank ?" The best answer
to this is the opinion rendered yester-
day by Judge Endicott, in a libel case
tried before him in the Camden Circuit
Court, in which he directed the jury
to bring In a verdict of nc cause for ac-
ton, the alleged libel consisting in pub
fishing a report of a summary proceed
Ing before a justice of the peace.
1.-The article in question" says the
judge, twas the report of a properly
constituted tribunal exercising its juris-
diction in open court. n \ \ \
Such publications are privileged,
though the publication may be to the
disadvantage of the individual con-
cerned, since the general advantage to
the public in having the proceedings
made public more than counterbalance
the inconvenience to private persons
whose conduct may be the subject OF
such proceedings"
If people whould but pause TO think,
they would be COMPELLED to admit that
publicity in the matter of court pro-
ceedings is one of the strongest guaran'
tees Of even-handed Justice being adj
ministered by the judiciary. Publicity
is the greatest foe to favoritism, dis
elimination, or any of the corruptine
influences that might palsy the arm OF
justice.
1t is in the interest of the people
that representatives of the press are
given recognition in every court Tor the
purpose of reporting and publishing
judicial proceedings. The newspaper
are not responsible for news of thi'
character. Like the courts, they have
a public duty to perform and would bt
untrue to their office as public journals
did they not fairly present for public
information the proceedings, in all the
courts, whether high or low.
While there Is nothing new in Judge
Endicott's decision, vi call attention
to it in order to make clear to the pub
lie the position of the newspaper ant
its privilege of publication in matters
of this character.

Cover Hatpins For Christmas.

The latest fad is to cover hatpins.
Does that sound strange? 1t is not,
however, for If you possess a plain
and unattractive pin and wish to give
1t the cachet of originality all you have
to do is to embroider a tiny disk Of
black satin or any shade that you pre-
fer with gold thread, put the disk
over the head of the pin, tie it tight,
and the deed is done. If you had a
jeweled pin and the real diamond, or
whatever it was, has disappeared, COW
er a small button in any way you like
and paste 1t into the empty space left
by the lost bit of glass. If a hatpin
is too small, make a little rosette of
gold tissue and run the pin through
the middle.
The ways of decorating such pins
are really too numerous to mention in
detail, but any one may do it and get
the best results with the least effort
and expense. Indeed, it Is not diff
cult to make.

then each edge is neatly bound with
ribbon. galloon or braid to cover the

a large. neatly hemmed square of the

What Goes With This Money and
Why Does not the Individual
Taxpayer Profit More
Than he DoeS7

The Elmer Times under the caption,
Railroad Taxes says
1t would appear that the railroads
of New Jersey are paying a fair share
of taxes at present, whether equitable
compared with other classes of proper
ty, the sum is a large N
"The assessed valuation of railroad
and canal property for the present year
is 1881 ga 15s, an increase of nearly
50, 000, 200 over last years assessment.
The amount to be collected on the
above valuation this year aggregates
So, 0SS $40. 43. When collected and
distributed the school fund share of
these taxes will amour to
So 13, $3.50. 49,"
But what goes with this money?
And why does not this large sum fav-
orably affect the tax bill of the indi-
vidual tax payer more than it does ?
These are questions being asked as
the tax bills are being sent out. A few
years ago much was said about the
benefit which was to accrue to the in
dividual a xpayers by the system of
taxing which the railroads were to be
taxed and property was to be assessed
at more nearly its true value. The
County Tax Boards were to see to it
that there was equalization of taxes
and there was TO be a financial gain to
individual property owners But the
fact is that taxes have been increasing
aud continue to increase as is shown by
the tax bills of well nigh every munich
pality in this state. There il little
doubt that a disappointment is felt and
a conviction is growing that something
is radically wrong and that sooner or
later the people will be heard from and
there will be a reform whether forNthe
reason that the cost of ''mupicipsl liv-
Ing" has been constantly increasing
and hat beyond the increase IN in-
come, az has beef some other living, or
whether for some other reason, the fact
is that the burden of taxation Is becom-
Ing heavier and the time is not far dis
tant when the people of this State are
to understand why this is true and if
an i'll is found and a remedy is needed,
the people will find it for their relief
