Another tragedy enacted, this time
at Aberdeen. Another chapter of
crime to blacken the pages of Mis-
sippi's criminal history. Another
wall Of widowhood and cry of anguish
of the fatherless go up from another
desolated home. And yet brains are
busted in agitating the removal of
stripes from the convicts' cuticle and
toilet.
Such agitation may be rightly re-
garded as shuttles in the loom of
abolition, weaving a web for the wind
ing sheet of prison discipline.
We do not believe that lofty senti-
ments can be given too wide range,
but maudlin sentiment which produces
sensations similar to those expert.
enced by the landsman on a surging
sea, like other emetics, should be
kept sealed and properly laveled that
the unsuspcting may not mistake it.
Ever and anon a voice is raised in
the marshes of matdlin sentiment
duplicating the throne of mercy
when 1t should be lifted in appeal to
the bar of justice CAS- the hart pin
eth for the brook" so do the souls Of
the supplicants yearn for the removal
of stripes from the convicts' cutaneous
and wearing apparel.
For the former, it is claimed a dill
gent search fails to find a warrant in
law; the latter, it is claimed is de-
grading the dignity of those who don
the states badge of human perver-
sity or inhuman> brutality, as the case
may be.
If these pious humanitarians will
concede what has been commended
that profane laws are based upon sa-
cred laws-and are not averse to a
tender of good offices, we will under
take to reward their researches for
legal warrant for striped hides, by
citing them to couple Of passages
of scripture which have material
bearing upon the subject.

Special to The News.
Starksville, Miss, Dec. 3.-Pathetic
scenes were witnessed yesterday at
the funeral of Mr.. w. J. Seitz, near
Longview. Mr.. Seitz was a philan-
thropist, and the many charitable
deeds attributed to him towards the
white and black people will be sadly
missed.
When Rev. N. @. Adams assembled
the pulpit of the old Pleasant Ridge
Baptist Church, of which Mr.. Seitz
was member, to deliver an eulogy
the negroes walled piteously and
many of the whites also mingled their
tears. AS the body was being viewed
the same scenes were renewed. "My
poor marster am gone,' What am we
goin' to do now" cried many of the
ante-bellum negroes.

Meridian, Miss, Dec. 3.-A move
ment was started in this city to-day
for the establishment of State Hos

the announcement by the trustees of
the Mississippi Medical College, that
they would donate the site of the
medical college to the State if the
State Hospital was located here. The
site offered is worth several thousand
dollars. and is one of the most val
liable in the city.

GA Girl at the Helm is said to be

The book is the brightest and liveliest
the music the catchiest, the production
the most elaborate and the company

IS challenging any other manager to
produce as pretty chorus of 40 girls.
Features Of the production are the
great motor boat race, which is pro-
duced with intricate electrical effort
the song sensation, "The Ghost Of Rag
Time, is declared to be the song hit
OF the decade, and receives from Is to
~ encores at every performance.
There are IA songs-every one a gem
OF tunefulness. But best of all there
is about this piece an atmosphere of
youth, life and happiness, of pretty

Kenosha officials Asked To Aid in
Effort To Get Portion of Taxes
elected Fr m Railways
SUPERIOR STARTS MOVEMENT
Insists That Cities in the State Where
Railways Have Terminals Should
Have at Least Portion
of Taxes Collected

Cooperation of the city of Kenosha
in obtaining legislation that will give
to the city it's share of taxes collected
from steam railroads is being asked by
the city of Superior. Kenosha, city
officials have been sent copies of a
brief on the subject prepared by Thorn
as E. Lyons, city attorney Of superior.
In Kenosha, Milwaukee, Superior and
other cities of the state the railroads
have terminals. The cities in which
the terminals are located have to pro-
vide fire and police protection and the
other advantages of the city govern
ment to the property of the railroad.
In return the cities receive nothing
back in the way of taxes.
Under the present law all property of
a railway company used or employed
in the operation of railroad or in
conducting it's business is classed as as
sessed for taxation by the state. This
includes the franchise, right-of -way,
roadbed, sidetracks, switch yards, sta
lions, depots, freight and roundhouses,
machine shops, bridges, docks and ele-
vators used exclusively for railroad
purposes.
No railroad property except vacant
lands and coal docks and elevators not
used exclusively for railroad purposes
contribute in any degree to the expense
of local government. The present law
results in great hardship to cities hav-
ling large terminal facilities. The re
! port prepared by City Attorney Lyons
Of Superior at the request Of the mayor
and the legislature committee Of the
Commercial Club of that city. shows
$15,O42,000 Of railroad property in
Douglas county, and mostly within the
city limits of Superior. The assessed
valuation Of all other property in that
county is 500, 166.157.
M Rumors Of other roads coming I'd
the head Of the lakes foreshadow a
time when half Of all property within
| the limits Of the city Of Superior will
be used for railroad purposes and the
burden Of supporting local government
will fall on the other half, - says Mr..
Lyons. While the proportion Of rail
road property in Milwaukee to all
other property is not as great as in
Superior the conditions complained of
exist there. Superior believes that
Milwaukee, through it's common Coun-
Gil and the Legislature should do all in
it's power to prevent the continuance of
the present inequalization of railroad
taxation.

Engineer Duane of Waukegan
Seeks To Succeed R. n. Moth
as City Engineered Kenosha
MOTH SEEKS REELECTION
Aldermen Insist That Important Pro
jects on Hand at This Time Make
it Poor Time for a
Change in Officials

Kenosha promises to have one cam
paign before the opening Of the regular
city campaign and that is a campaign
| for the election of city engineer to
succeed Robert III. Moth who has serv
ed the city in this capacity for many
years. Mr.. Moth it is, understood is a
candidate for reelection, but he is to
have opposition from H. J. Duane OF
Waukegan who has opened a campaign
for the office. Engineer Duane was in
Kenosha on Tuesday calling on the
members Of the Common Council in the
interest of his candidacy. The coming
year promises to be very important
one for the Office of the city engineer
sewer is to be built and it is not
thought probable that the Council will
make any change in the Office at TINS
time. City Engineer Moth will be a
candidate for reelection and he is
known to have the ardent support Of a
number Of the members of the Coun-
Gil Mr.. Moth has done all of the work
that has been done on the plans fol
plans ready for the acceptance of the
Council. Many other important mat
tiers including the work of finishing the
improvements Of Market Square have
been started by MIR. Moth and this
leads the aldermen to believe that he
should be permitted to hold his office
until he shall have carried these big
projects to completion. Mr.. Moth is
not making any vigorous campaign fol
the office and is permitting his work
to speak for itself.
Mr.. Duane who seeks the office is q
young man Of pleasing appearance. He
is a. graduate Of Lafayette College and
has had considerable experience as ar
engineer, but has never held the office
of city engineer. He served for q
time as an assistant city engineer al
Springfield, Ohio, and since that time
has been employed in the engineering
work at the Naval Training School al
Lake Bluff. He is now in the employe
of the w. III. Schott Construction Com
pany which has the contract for the
installation of the heating plant al
the big government naval station. Mr.
Schott is well known in Kenosha as he
put in the first street and Commercial.
electric lighting plant.
The election Of the engineer will be
taken up by the City Council at the
meeting to be held on the third Mon
day in March. 1t is expected that
there will oe a lively campaign between
the friends Of the two engineers before
the election takes place.
