A GOOD APPOINTMENT.

The Yazoo Sentinel, which is no
special admirer of the Governor of
Mississippi, says that the most
creditable act of Gov. Noel's admin
istration was the appointment of
Hon. B. T. Hobbs, editor of the
Brookhaven Leader, as one of the
trustees of the Deaf and Dumb
Asylum at Jackson"
The Clarion Ledger will cordially
endorse the above with the slight
amendment, lone of the" inserted
just before the word, most" for
Gov. Noel has made many good ap-
pointments for which he has gotten
no credit. But if he makes "bad'
one in the sight of some of his po-
litical enemies, he is roasted like a
pickpocket. No Governor was ever
more abused than Gov. Noel, and
no one ever deserved it less. His
judgment may be at fault at times,
but his heart is always right. He
has done his duty as he sees it, con-
scientiously and honestly, and be-
cause he has made a few public men
or o~ffice-seekers mad, does not prove
that he is wrong.
The Clarion-Ledger heartily en-
dorses the following additional re-
marks of The Sentinel:
"Mr. Hobbs is recognized as one
OF the strongest editors of Missis-
sippi, is a gentleman of unimpeach-
able integrity, rather tenacious of
view, perhaps, but withal, honest in
any opinion he may expresses, and
thoroughly qualified to discharge
with credit to himself and honor to
the State the duties of the position
to which he has been appointed
Jackson Clarion-Ledger
We cordially endorse both of the
above. Mr.. Hobbs, who was re-
Gently appointed one of the trustees
of the Deaf and Dumb Asylum at
Jackson, is one of M~ississippi's
ablest editors. W. also agree with
the Clarion Ledger that Gov. Noel
has done his duty as he sees it, con-
scientiously and honestly, and just
because he has made a few public
men, or ofice-seekers mad, does not
prove that he is wrong.

UNIVERSITY PROSPECTS.

Chancellor 4 A K,ncannon, Of
the University Of Mississippi, is con
fident that his institution will enjoy
a prosperous year this session. He
has left nothing nndune that would
likely enhance the welfare of that
college. In arecent interview with
a jackson News reporter, Mr.. KIM
cannon said:
THE outlook for the University
this year is satisfactory from every
point of view. Since the close Of
last session we have received more
than 700 voluntary requests from
prospective students for catalogues,
which is the largest number ever
sent out from the c~hancelIor's Office.
Of course, all these prospective stu
dents cannot be enrolled, because
of lack of educational qualifications,
or inability to met the entrance re-
quirements, but if one-fourth of the
number is enrolled, together with
the old students who will return this
month, We will have an enrolment
in excess of the 500 mark"
The University is growing in
popularity among reople of all
classes, and it is their ambition to
make it a thoroughly democratic in
stitution. Equal opportunities are
given to young men who desire to
equip themselves with a real educa-
ton, and their facilities for the
work were never better than at pres
ent.
In his campaign for the enlistment
of new students this summer, Mr..
Kincannon has received great aid
from former students of the institU-
ton. In many towns and cities
alumni associations have been form
ed, and some of the most prominent
men in the state are manifesting
keen interest in the affairs of their
alma mater.

A person is foolish to let his en-
Wy get the upper hand of his COM
mon sense. Just because you re-
alize that the other fellow possesses
superiority in some things, don't be
so foolish as to forget that in others
he is weaker than you. Don't let
your envy drift into hatred. This
is generally the outcome that re-
suits from envy getting the upper

We know of no better suggestion
to the college student than, that he
read and study the advice given by
Polonius to his son, in the tragedy
of Hamlet. If the college lad toes
the line of demarcatioD laid down
in this advice, his college career
cannot help but be a success. Po-
lonius must have been a college lad
himself, and from the abundance
of his own experiences with his
mates cleaned this wisdom.
