Snow Drift. Bad at Ham nton.

Special to Times-Republican.
Hampton, March 16.-The high wind
from the northwest, that prevailed here
last Saturday, picked up much Of the
snow, wet tho it was, and drifted 1t in
the railroad cuts, and across wagon
roads, so badly as to interfere corl.
siderably with traffic. Farmers WHO
drove into town from the country, re-
ported the roads to be filling up with
snow so badly as to make them almost
impossible. -,
( Train No. 80, east-bound on the
Great Western, did not reach here ur.-
til $3.50 Sunday morning, and No. 3,
due at 1858 a. M, arrived about the
same time-over six hours late. The
local trains each way Sunday were also
from one to three hours late. No snow
fell here Saturday, and the sun shone
much of the time, but the wind stirred
up much of that already on the ground.

Des Moines, March 16.-Highway
legislation for the present session is
likely to be somewhat meager. The
senats has passed bill authorizing the
bette,ment of roads by use Of the drag
and also a bill permitting townships to
go back to the old system Of q dozen
road supervisors to a township with
each farmer working out his taxes"
as IN the old time. There is on the
senate calendar a bill favorably recon-
mendcd to authorize establishment of
road districts somewhat after the style
Of drainage districts, upon petition OF
resident. property owners and a report
of the county engineer. In such dis
tricts 1t will be possible to make roads
and assess half the cost to abuttlng
property. The plan OF having state
bonus for highways has not met with
great favor and the plan Of having a
state engineer and directing all road
building from one central authority is
not ripe.
The bill for the one board plan for
endar for action. An effort may be
made to secure one important amend
ment to the bill, and that would be
to, provide that the funds for the col-
leges lie handled exactly as other state
funds by the state treasurer. The bill.
out OF consideration to local sentiment
at each Of the college towns. retains
the plan Of having at each college a
treasurer on salary to pay out the
state money. This could be much bet
ter done and at very much less ex-
pense the same as is done with other
state institutions thru the office Of
state treasurer.
Senator Quigley desires that the Iowa
legislature memorabilia congress to
take over complete control OF the Mis-
sissippl and, Missouri rivers insofar as
it relates to fishing matters. 1t Is
found that SEEMING fish Is carried on in
the middle of the rivers without any
chance for the state laws of either state
to regulate. II the federal government
should take over control and pass a
law forbidding SEEMING except with a
large rneslr seine the matter would he

\ Repr esentative Drury says that one
az the most serious things the legisla-
ture has to contend with is the various
Of officials, county and
for the sole purpose OF lob
bying for increase of pay. Nearly
every class Of officials in the state has
an organization to boost pay. The
legislature has to fight these organizia-
lions in order to protect the public
treasury.

A Fool Judge.

One of the best editorials the
Seminal has read in long time
appeared in last weeks Newton
Record rebuking Judge ]. r.
Byrd for saying in charge to a
grand jury that ''you cannot rely
on anything in the newspapers. !"
This was an unwarrented
assault on the press in general,
and should be vigorously resent
ed by every paper in Mississippi.
Judge Byrd. however. is not a.
lone in expressions of contempt
for the agency that has made his
political and official success pos
sible. Other men high up in of.
fetal life IN this State and Nation
are wont to sneer at the press,
and yet but for the persistent
boosting and free advertising
given them by the press, they
would probably never have been
heard OF outside their voting
precinct. The newspapers owe
it themselves and to their self
respect to keep tab on men of
this kind and studiously refrain
from mentioning their names in
their columns. This would have
a. tendency to alter their opinions
about the value and accuracy of
che press.-Yazoo Sentinel.
It was more than a column too,
and the Judge will never forget
it and will profit by it no doubt.
There are lot of fellows who
holds positions and it seems like
they would like very much to
discredit the influence of the
newspapers. The papers are
good to them Tor not telling all
that they know about them.
People become intoxicated
from different things, but to be-
come intoxicated from holding
some position from the people
the State, is as great weakness,
a wee as a common old
drunk from flicker" Money
and position are two things that
are hard to hold On to with sue
cess and propriety.
The Sentinel takes common
sense view of the situation and
anyone who thinks as Judge
Byrd should not permit news
paper to enter the sacred pre-
cincts of home.
