nothing else but ciinch. Only fifteen bills
have been passed, while the minds of as
senblymen have been agitated by poll
tics None of the most vital questions
before the Legislature have had a
chance The most important bill of all,
perhaps, the bill which carries appropri-
ations for the public schools, has not
been passed. though it should have been
passed in January. The session so far,
,nproductive as il has been, has cost the
people of Mississippi nearly $4,000.
This shows" says the LumbertOn
Headblocl, that very few men who
play upon the bow of concord the soft
sweet strains of eloquence and kiss ba-
bics and promise to die for their coun-
try during the campaign, really have the
country's interest at heart
1t certainly does. And it also demon
strates the beauty and simplicity of the
system of choosing senators III VOgue IN
this land of popular government.
The new senator is still too new to
Justify appraisement. He is well
known public man and is said to have
ability. His friends call him statesman
and an orator. His enemies CALL him a
railroad and corporation man. We shall
know in good time.

There is no use burning any more

What is the use of worrying if what
is to be will be, but from observation
what is to be has been frequently

rule which may be applied 10 the Mans

WHY EXCEPT OR EXEMPT
pEARN2

1t has been proposed that Robert f
Peary shall be voted gold medal and
the thanks of Congress for his discov-
cry of the north pol to which there is
objection which is reasonable. Simply
because a clique of the navy and because
the National Geographic Society have
accepted Peary's statement is not suffi-
cient to warrant the bestowal of an
honor which is esteemed beyond price.
1t is not questioned that Peary has
discovered the north pole but he should
be required to conform to the same test
which was applied to DIR, Cook.
Possibly Mr. Peary may be laboring
under some hallucination resulting from
the influence of the arctic region, and
therefore he should, if he be sincere,
submit without hesitation his proofs Of
discovery to the same scientific tribunal
which passed on Dr. Cooks claims.

ROSES

ROSES
There is never rose that has bloom
ed, dear,
In this garden of ours today,
That has not given light,
Or gladdened the sight
Of some traveller on his way
1t may be butterfly only.
As he fits meath the sunny sky,
But the glimpse of the rose,
In the breeze, as she blows,
Makes him pause as he hutters by
A sick hand may fondle the blossoms
A hand that is fevered with pain,
And the JOY in the eyes,
The defght-the surprise
Is sweet as the sun after rain.
So we each have work of Our own
To blossom, to love and to cheer;
And just as the rose,
That smilingly grows,
Ne may make the world hap
pier, dear.

RETROSPECTIVE VIEW.

The Ruston Leader says Mississippi
is now reckoning the cost of its brand
new senator. the Honorable Leroy Per-
cy of Gfeenville. The feeling Of relief
that the long deadlock of nearly two
months had been finally broken is now
giving place to sober reflection; and the
retrospective view is not complimentary
to the method of selecting senator's
which prevails in that State.

Miss Steere was the daughter of Mr..

CUTTING OFF RED RIVER.

y
New Orleans Picayune: The question
of the proposed divorce of the waters of
the Mississippi river from those of the
Red and Aachafalaya is to be decided by
Congress upon a report which is to be
made by the Mississippi River Commits
sion, of which Col w. H. Bixy is pres
ident.
The commission will make its USUAL
tour by steamboat down the river from
st. Louis to New Orleans in the high
water season, which usually occars III
April. The problem of river improve
ment, including the protection from
floods, has been in the care of this COM
mission 70 rthe past three decades, and
it must unquestionably be regarded as
the highest authority.
The Atchafalaya is one of the num-
erous mouths or outlets of the MihSis
Sippi. Red river, which rises in western
Texas and Colorado, receiving numer-
Gus tributaries, brings down a large
body of water, which doubtless once
found its way to the sea through one of
the rivers that make the boundary be-
tween Texas and Loufhiana But it con
tinually INSTRUCTED its channel which
was by the shortest and most direct
route to the sea. with enormous RATS of
driftwood and immense quantities of
earth brought down from the alluvial
regions above. This process of obstruct-
ing its own channel, creating a chain of
lakes, was carried on until the Red riy
er, flowing through low country, fin
ally found its way to the Mississippi and
subsequently to the Aatchafalaya. When
there is high water in the Mississippi
and not i'll the Red, the Mississippi wa
ter goes into the mouth of the Red and
down the Atchafayala.
The Red and the Atchafalaya are both
navigable. and in former years have
maintained an important steamboat traf-
ic with this city, but in recent years this
business has fallen off, yielding TO the
railroads
The closing of connection between the
Mississippi and the Red and Atchafalaya
would cut off the steamboat trade and
force it by devious channels to find some
other route, or paralyze it The demand
for the closure of the connection comes
from parties who have large areas of
lands which by such closing would be
t reclaimed for cultivation But the ques-
ton arises: VIII the Atchafalaya, when
forced to carry all the water Of the Red
river, be able to do so without requiring
extensive building of levees to save 9TH
or lands not now endangered Also,
what effect will the closing of the At
ehafalaya outlet have on the levees
along the Mississippi?
The overpowering consideration is
protection from overflow This comes
before everything else, and it is a ques-
ton which concerns al the lower lands
now protected by levees. That all the
lowlands Of Louisiana are to be leveed
and drained is 6nality that must come
in time, but safety in one DISTRICT must
not be allowed to destroy another. The
problem must be solved in due order,
that which is most urgent to secure
safety being first attended to.

f. Hopkinson Smith. the author, eu-
logging the chiIvary of the "old South,
ern gentlemen" before seven hundred
members %. the New Gorlt Southern
Society last night in the Hotel Aston,
deplored the conditions which he Gain
ed prevailed here today.
"Why. one can hardly gel decent
answer from a street car conductor, a
policeman or an official i'll New York
City," he continued during a lull in the
applause that had greeted his praise Of
Southern courtesy.
"Of course" he added by way of
qualification, 81 do not mean to nc alb
surd. There are doubtless thousands
who are as courteous as one could de-
sire. but it is not with them a matter of
blood, as it is with Our people. 1t was
part of our education. 1t was born
with us and never dies.

My father used to take off his hat when
he met a man whom he knew, not be
cause he wished especially to honor the

When Mr. Smith spoke about his au-
dicncc having the same feeling of ex-
lie" he struck responsive chord. But
he soon turned aside from his usual
vein of humor and sympathy with
Southern ideals to condemn the spirit
ON materialism that he finds here.
"Materialism," he declared, els ram

ial relations. Now if a man drops into

on one side and a secretary on the other
What has become of the old-time

Where has the old spirit of old South
ern plantation hospitality gone - th'
admiration and Difference and respect

tween host and hostess? All have pass
ed away for the sake of the dollar.
In the face of this spirit of com
mercialism, is it a wonder that the PEG

SUN POWER
1t May BE Substitute for the Present
System of Electricity

Ii is related i'll the New Orleans Plea
yune of February ID that George II.
Cove, the SomerviIle. Mass, man who
has evolved a practical method of utiliz-
ing the suns rays to generate power,
is expected in this city shortly.
Mr. Cove Games naturally by his in
ventive genious, for his father before
him invented many appliances that are
in Use today in -four mills, and Mr..
Cove himself has devised many prac-
ticable appliances that are bringing in
an ample revenue, which enables him
Ito pursue his original investigations and
experiments untrammeled by any other
consideration
While he has been working on the
theory that sunlight could be turned into
commercial power for a long time the
actual discovery came about accident
ally, but he was fortunate in that he
recognized the value Of this discovery
and was able TO carry out the principle
WHICH ne found to the logical conciu-
sion. This logical conclusion is the now
well-estabhshed fact that any man at an
expense of couple hundred dollars
can have installed on the roof Of his
house simple device that will gather
and store electricity from the suns
rays and give him ample power for.
lighting and cooking purposes, and at
practically NO expense for qperation.|
Mr. Cove is an exponent OF tfN theory
that the sun does not give off heat and
IN support of that theory points to fae
well-known fact that the higher up one
goes in balloon or on a mountain top
the colder it gets. Therefore the heat
that we receive is the result of the
suns rays conveying electricity, which
meeting the earth, creates heat
lie had long been a student of tie
theory that the electricity given off in
the suns rays could be utilized COM

TIE GORDON INCIDENT.

visit to New Orleans returning from

ant Governor S. d. McEnery, now Unit
ed States, senator, presiding, it was
voted down A senator sprang to his
feet and said in about these words:
mir. PRESIDENT Mr. President
change my vote from yes to no, and in
doing so move a reconsideration of this

of this Senate, done? Slammed the door

side of politics General Grant is known
among his friends as the best of good
fellows, and while ! hold my Democracy
second to no mans upon this floor, if
General Grant should come to my house
would pull black bottle on hint"

vote was reconsidered and the resolu-
ton was passed M
