Silk Robes for Judges.

1t is stated that the members of the
supreme Court are about to change
from the unconventional and demo-
cratic to the very conventional; that, in
fact, the measure of each man has
been taken and that the result will be,
some Monday morning five figures
wearing flowing robes of black silk,
will emerge from the ante-room and
ascend the bench This has been de-
cided upon, and it will constitute new
departure, as from time immemorial,
or within the memory of the oldest
followers of the court or the students
of the supreme court justices have sat
on the bench CARRIED and habited in
the same manner as in consultation

result of the bar association meeting
at Natchez, whereat a resolution was
adopted recommending the change.
Three members of the court consulted
over the matter ana ueo-~---- =,

taken for compliance with that oelei

According to President G. II. High

at should be borne in mind that we

last year, and, naturally, should not
expect a very heavy decrease this
year." says President Hightower.
Crop prospects in some sections OF
the state are gloomy, but not so bad as
they have been reported in many in.
stances.

all replanting work has been finished
but the cold nights and lack of moist
ure have retarded. termination.
1.-The cotton crop, generally speak
ing, is about three weeks late. With
ordinarily favorable weather conditions
during the summer, it is not too late
to make a fair-sized crop. The late
ness of the season is the principal
drawback. Cotton chopping ought to
be in progress right now throughout
the state, but | will venture the state
ment that not one per cent OF the
crop has been chopped out"

School Book Commission.

Gov. Noel appears satisfied that the
men whom he has chosen as text book
commissioners for the next five years
will measure fully up to all the re-
quirements, and that they will carry
out both the spirit and the letter OF
the law. In making his selections he
was careful to choose men who are
not only engaged in teaching in the
public schools of the state at the pres
ent time and who have been so en-
gagged for several years, and are in
touch with the needs and requirements
but whom he has sufficient assurance
will retain their connection or will in
all probability
1t has been his policy to as far as
possible shield the appointees from the
pressure which the experience of the
past has shown the text book commits
sioners to be subjected in order that
they may the better carry out the du-
ties entrusted to them. The law spe-
officially provides that the commission
ers shall not hold direct communities
ton officially with book men, nor the
book men have access to them. The
commissioners have advertised for pro-
posals which are to be submitted I'M
der seal by June 9, and all publishers
or book houses will be privileged to
submit their bids, and furthermore
they will be expected to furnish list
or copy of the bid for each commits
sioner. Under the law they will be
permitted to appear before the COM
mission in regular stated session ana
explain their bids or any features that
they may desire to bring forward, but
under no circumstances will member
of the commission be allowed to dis
cuss bids or books with any of the
representatives of the book concerns.

James Wins Drainage Suit.

The supreme court Monday handed
down an opinion in the case of I. q.
James ct al. VS.. the Tallahatchie Drain
age Commission, deciding for James
and his associates in that the proposed
bond issue, which they were hghung,
is tied up still, but not passing upon
the final constitutionality of the act.
The decision reinstates the INDUCTION
and remands the case to Chancellor
Denton. None of the 100000 bonds
authorized for the Tallahatchie drain
age project can be issued as long as
the injunction stands.
The case was a holly contested one.
The legislature two years ago passed
what is known as the Tallahatchie
drainage act 1t was intended to form
system of drainage for Coahoma, Tu-
| norfion of TaIIanarcnre,, if-ane's-S- -4h at
