Jackson, Miss, May 24.-The de-
cision of the Mississippi City supreme
court in the case of w. A. Montgom-
cry VS.. the state ex rel, in which it
was held that the ordinance establish
ing a city depository was legal, not
only means that about $4,000 interest
must be paid for funds deposited by
the city treasurer from the date the
ordinance became effective to date,
but that interest must be paid on the
$3.50, 900 of funds accruing from the
recent bond issue.
This means total of about $4,000
to the city of Jackson, which will
build all the bridges it has intended
to erect in the city limits, but bonds
for which had no market and were
withdrawn. The decision is an i'm
portant one for the city, and was a
Joint victory for Mayor Crowder and
City Attorney William Hemmingway.
The city attorney is a strong advo-
cate of Mayor Crowder's progressive
policy, and while the friends of the
city administration are jubilant over
the brilliant victory they are not
overlooking the part Mr.. Hemming
way and State Senator Potter played
in it.
Mr.. Potter drafted the act under
which the ordinance establishing the
city depository was passed, and wher
the case went to the courts he assist
ed City Attorney Hemingway in th'
legal battle that has resulted in thu
supreme court declaring the ordinance
within the rights of the city council
to pass and enforce.
Interest must be paid on all cit,
funds on deposit, which means a cor
siderable sum in interest each veal
which can be devoted to public in
provements. For this reason the dc
cision of the supreme court is one

NO REPEAL OF
STATEWIDE Law
Suggestion That Local Option Be
Substituted Instead Will Meet No
Encouragement from Governor.

Special to The NeCs.
Jackson, Miss, May 24.-The first
suggestion that the Democracy of
Mississippi follow the example set by
the party in Alabama by repudiating
the statutory prohibition law and sub
stituting local option, comes from the
Natchez Democrat, published in one
of the eight counties that we're in the
"wet" column when the statutory law
was enacted two years ago.
In a brief editorial the Democrat
suggests that Governor Noel call
special session of the legislature to
repeal the statewide prohibition law,
exempt from taxation all moneys
loaned at six per cent or less, exempt
chattel mortgages, and reduce privi-
lege tax assessments.
There is not the slightest possibili-
ty that Governor Noel would ever
send to the legislature a recommenda
ton for the repeal of the statutory
prohibition law, regardless of how
many important subjects he might find
to make a special necessary.
The Governor is an ardent, dyed-in-
the-wool prohibitionist, and is not on
ly satisfied with the existing statutes,
but would like to see them made
stronger, if possible. In fact, he sub
mitted a large number of suggestions
for amendments to the prohibition
law at the last session, several Of
which We're acted upon favorably.
The action of the Democratic state
convention in Alabama has caused
very little comment in this state. anC
thus far no movement of any kint
looking to the repeal of the statewide
prohibition law has been launched.
With open saloons in only eigh
counties, Mississippi was practicall
dry before the prohibition law wen
into effect seventeen months ago, anC
while some of the river and coas
counties would probably vote for
return of the open saloon, if given tn
! opportunity, the possibility of thei
having an opportunity is so remot
n that it is hardly worth discussing.
The only notable amendment to tn

islative session is that prohibiting II

COUNTY'S OFFER

Ponitentiary Trustees Do Not Consid-

Special 10 The NeCs.

special TO The NetCs.
Jackson, Miss, May 24.-When the
penitentiary trustees meet June Z, the
question of buying additional land for
the state farms will be taken up.
Numerous offers of desirable land
have been made to the trustees, and
from various communities, but there
is little prospect of any land being
bought, except that nea' one of the
present state farms.
The trustees have deciled not to con-
slider the offer of 1000 acres in For
rest county free of Charge. as the
board does not believe it would be
good policy to establish farm there,
erect the necessary buildings and
cages, where so much fertilizer would
have to be used to promce a crop.
Other offers OF land the price au-
thorized to be paid by he legislature
come from Lehore, slnflower and
counties where the othr state farms
are located, Some of the trustees
The Hattiesburg news., 1910-05-24

have inspected lands lying near the
state farms, while the entire board
will make a trip of inspection at its
next meeting.
Some desirable land in Sunfower
could be had at reasonable prices,
but the trustees do not want to ac-
quire any more lands there, if it can
secure desirable land at the price au-
thorized elsewhere, because it re-
moves so much land from the tax
rolls. For this reason the board is
considering an offer from persons
owning land adjoining the Belmont
farm, and will inspect this land after
the next meeting.
The states largest farm is in Sum-
flower county, to which something
over 300 acres were recently added.
This land was purchased because it
was partly surrounded by the states
lands, and was regarded as necessary,
but the indications are the other land
will be adjoining or near Belmont
farm.
Col. Montgomery has inspected
some of this land, making the trip
for his own personal information, and
will make this trip in June to look
other trustees.

Hiccough is a distressing and some

times swallow of water will stop it.
If simple measures fail the following
has been found very efficacious: The
nerves that produce hiccough are near
the surface Of the neck. They may be
reached and compressed by placing
two fingers right in the center of the
top of the breastbone between the two
cords that run up either side of the
neck and pressing inward, downward
and outward. A few minutes pressure
of this kind will stop the most obsti-
