RETROSPECTIVE.

The public knows now the general
character of the tariff bill that the
Republican party viii soon write up
on the statute books. 1t is gen
orally conceded that the measure
will advance the cost Of living to the
consumer, and increase the profits
OF the tariff trusts, inasmuch as raw
products have been made cheaper to
the manufacturers, who have at the
same time been given revision up
ward on the manufactured products
What could have been expected
had their been Democratic MAORI
ty in both Houses instead OF a
standpat Republican majority
This question may be answered by
referring to the Congressional Re
cord, which shows that just previous
to the vote on the Payne bill in the
House Minority Leader Champ
Clark introduced a resolution to re
commit the tariff bill to the ways
and means committee with instruc-
tons to make specific amendments
The Democratic members of the
House voted for this resolution al
most to man, the sugar represen-
tatives OF Louisiana standing out
against the resolution practically
alone.
Here are a few of the amend
ments commanded by the Clark re
solution, which the Democrats sus-
tanned and the Republicans rejected :

the bill to revenue rates, so as to
raise the maximum of revenue with

law of human nature, the Daily
News has always endeavored 10 be
patient and forbearing with persons
who disagree with rs on all subjects,
both great and small
We find it exceedingly difficult,
however, TO manifest feelings of pa
thence and liberation for some OF our
brethren of the state press who arc
so earnestly and vociferously urging
the sale OF the old state house
Judging from some OF the utter
ances we hear on this subject, one
might think that the grand old com
monwealth of Mississippi is on the
verge OF bankruptcy, and that the
money that would be derived from
the sale of this historic property
would save Us from irretrievable
ruin
The plain truth OF the matter is
that Mississippi IS not in need OF
money just at present. and we GER
tainly do not need funds derived
from such sacreligious source.
If the old capitol property would
be a good investment for an indivi-
dual or corporation of realty specu-
1ators, it is a doubly good invest
ment for the state. The time IS
coming. and it IS very near at hand,
when Mississippi will need more
real estate in Jackson for public
uses. just as the federal government
now needs more property in the city
of Washington, and IS compelled to
pay extravagant prices for it.
The people OF Jackson, who arc
more vitality interested in the old
capitol than those Of any other com
munity in the commonwealth, are
not urging its sale IF the matter
was submitted to a vote in Jackson
today there would not be dozen
persons who would favor the selling
off of the property and placing the
proceeds in the state treasury. The
structure may be an eyesore 10
some people, particularly captions
visitors. but it is not an eyesore to
us. We love and reverence the
venerable pile. and. while we would
like to see it repaired and placed in
habitable shape, we would rather
have it just as it is than to have Il
not at all.
Thus far not one single logical
argument has been advanced in ia
vor Of selling the old capitol, and.
with all due Difference TO the opin-
ions Of others. we cannot believe
that d substantial argument of that
character viii be presented to the
lawmaking body.
The brethren OF the state press
who are advocating the demolition
or disposal of the old state house
are probably honest, but they are
simply mistaken in their views. It
may be contrary to the spirit of
harsh commercia1ism so predomi-
nant in this day and age, but the
Daily News believes in the adage
taht "a nation without ruins is ma
ton without history, and surely
this grand old commonwealth, SO
rich in historic lore, can well afford
10 preserve al least Jew of her
ruins, to keep them enshrined as
blessed memories of the days that
are dead and gone beyond recall,
Make the old capitol a museum o
state history, and put it in a state
of repair that will render OF fit for
tenancy by some OF the branches o.
state government, This IS the only
logical solution of the subject that
is now attracting so much attention
from the press of the state.

VARDAMAN STICKS TO IT.

The Times had to say about him
personally" for we set great store
by our utteranees and INDUCED the
hope that they would commend
themselves to the Governor in some
measure at least But we will take
courage and try again.
First of all we wish it to be I'M
derstood that what we may have to
say concerning Governor Vardaman
is personal only insofar as every
thing that touches a man is personal
1t is his public character winch he
has established and is adding to day
by day, and his public acts flowing
from that character, that we shall
te@l 1t liberty TO discuss. We have
no private acquaintance with him.
Coming now to the matter imme-
diateIy before us: Governor Varda-
mans latest editorial confirms our
charge that he was pesfferous
fntermeddler in the Hampton al
fair" lor he admits that My opiu-
ion, OF course, was based on what /
saw in the newspapers" What sort
of public leader is this who upon
such insufficient evidence would
k'ndIe a flame OF passion from one
end of the state to the other? That
too when the mails or the tcle-
phone would have placed him in
prompt and full possession OF all
the facts had he troubled himself to
apply to either his political Iriends
or opponents in GreenvilIe.
The Governor displays faith
which is both childIikc and bland in
expressing the belief that the good
people OF GrecnvilIe" do not CON
denim his conrse in this matter As
d matter OF course we cannot tell
what standard of excellence he ha-
erected for determining who the
elect are; but the words of com
ncndation which have come ~ 49,.

The truth OF the matter seems to
be that Governor Vardarnan +bo4,o-l,+

upon the prejudices OF part of the
people, and at the same time unon

Com mercial Egg Farm.

In the New England States. New York

to several thousand hens. The farm

II Is not necessary In the South to
build such expensive houses. We have
every advantage In the Southland for
producing eggs at less cost than our
Northern brothers. and with quick and
satisfactory railroad facilities TO the
Eastern markets the South should be-
come the greatest poultry producing
section of the entire country.
Other branches OF the poultry indus

but none are attended with so little

II has been q generally accepted
theory among teachers OF and writer's
On dairy subjects that the production
Of good butter necessitates the devel-
opment OF a certain amout of acid in
the cream. for two reasons. to develop
4 desirable flavor and to improve the
keeping quality. Recent investiga-
tons by the United States Department
of Agriculture indicate. however. that
butter made from Pasteurized sweet
cream has better keeping qualities and
remains free from Objectionable fav.
ors for a longer time than butter
made from sour cream. II these facts
are established It might seem that In

would be bought for butter making.

There Is a difference between sum-

ing In favor of the summer plowing.
Turning green growth into the soil
seems to be very much better than
turning an equal growth under. but
waiting until 1t has matured and dried
before doing 1t. Here on this farm
we aim TO do all the plowing possible
this summer. II may be hot work but
the days are long and one does not
need to hurry the teams. Not only is
II better to get the work done as soon
as possible for any crop to be sown

us that the earlier the better II corn
