petition has been addressed to the
nine Justices of the Supreme Court
of the United States by the brokerage
firm of ]. S. Bache and Company, of

ten it's decisions in the Standard Oil

which is embodied in the weekly re-

that the business of the country is at

May Call Extra Session.
There is considerable talk in politi-
cal circles about the effect the de-
feat of the two administration bills
will have NO Governor Donaghey' s
actions Many are predicting that it
will force him into the race for a
third term, that he may carry out
his expressed purpose of completing
the new state-house.
But the governor is giving out moth
ing. To all questions concerning his
intentions, he replies that he is "lonly
sitting steady in the boat. He is
deeply disappointed because of the
defeat of bills which he believes were
greatly needed, and says that the &C
ton of the Legislature has left the
states finances in a deplorable con-
dition.
There are some c)nectures that an
extra session may be called, but moth
ing has been given out that authoriz-
es such a course. None of the appro-
pration bills have been signed yet,
and he can hold them twenty days.
1t is expected that he will prune them
very materially, in order to bring the
appropriations more nearly within the
revenue

Died, at his home about Ave
miles north of Pelahatehie, after q
lingering illness of near 3 months,
our friend Mr.. John t. Shivers,
age SO years, months and one day.
He leaves bereayed wife, one
son, eight daughters, three broth
ers, two sisters and host of friends
to mourn his loss.
He bore his sufferings with for
titude that seemed marvellous, and
was conscious and cheerful nearly
to his last moments.
Mr.. Shiyers was one on our best
citizens, and we feel that his loss
is irreparable to his family and
friends.
Always ready to do kind act to
those who asked of him; attending
his mill and gin gave him ample
opportunities to befriend those who
needed, and there are few whom
he failed to aid as best he could
when the opportunity came.
We shall miss him, loved ones
and friends. But if there be re-
ward to those who heed the COM

should do to you, do We also to them
likewise" given by Him who best
understood, he is now in MY Faith

The land the clearer becomes the

its productiveness is just what the

starts with a reasonably good soil.
BY combining through tillage,

and a judiclous use or commercial
fertilizer, Mr.. w. H. Dubose. of
Brundidge, Alabama, has succeed
ed in producing seven bales of cot
ton from a three acre tract, using
nothing but the ordinary cotton
seed, the cost per acre being 1880,
as follows: Breaking the land
$3.50: rebedding, $500; hoeing, ST.

On the three acre tract Mr.. Du-

RANKIN COUNTY TEACHERS AS.
ISOLATION.

The second association of Rankin
teachers was held at pelahatchie.
Friday and Saturday, December 9th
and 10th.
On Friday evening, Rev. Eddins,
of Forest, was the speaker of the
occasion. His theme being, Body,
Soul and Spirit" Regardless of the
inclemency Of the weather, several
were present and those who were
brave enough to stem the storm
will not forget soon this most ex-
cellent address. He had a fine out
line and his Psychological truths
were well worth while.
DR.. Clark, of Pelahatchie, was al
so on program for that evening
but his speech was postponed until
some other time. We regret very
much it was thus.
Prof. Rundles conducted the de-
votional exercises Saturday morn
ing, after which the regular ar
ranged program was taken up. The
first subject: School Sanitation
and Hygiene was discussed in a
general way as the selected speak
ers for this question were J not
present. From the talks made by
several teachers from different
parts of the county.
We found that the Free State
of Rankin is making rapid strides
along the sanitation line.
Miss Eva Mckay read a most
splendid paper on, How to Syste-
mize Primary Work in Rural
School," Then j. |. Coyington con-
Quoted round table talk. Several
questions were asked by different
teachers, and also answered to the
satisfaction of ALL One was: How
to manage a boy who acts rude dur
ing a recitation. :" 1t was decided
if you couldn't get his attention
get him out of the way.
In spite of the unfavorable wealth
er, also the negligence of most
of the teachers who were on pro-
gram. for this occasion, we can say
that the meeting was success, and
it is to be Hoped that those who
are on the program for the next
time will not shirk their duty but
will be ready to report at the next
