MILITIA Will
BE Benefited
Passage Of The Military Bill BY Con-
sress Means Much To Mis-
sissippi.

The passage of the militia bill by
Congress Saturday means a great deal
for the Mississippi National Guard !;
probably more than for the militia of
any other state, as it will give officers
and enlisted men pay for their SER
vices. 8
The pay will not, of course, amount
to much, but it will mean an average
of between Sc and $40 a month for
the enlisted men, who will receive 25
per cent of the regular enlisted men
of the United States army, except for
encampments and actual service in the
event Of riot or invasion.
While this pay will not amount to
much, it means that the enlisted men,
instead of paying, out of their own
pockets, for joining a military COM
pany, will receive ample compensation
each year to make it an inducement
for them to enlist.
The bill is the one drafted by the
National Guard Association at it's
twelfth annual meeting at st. Louis
last year, and means a total of about
$4,000 year to the Mississippi Ma
tional Guard. All officers below the
grade of general officers, will receive
ID per cent of the regular army pay
for each grade, with an additional
per cent to the commanding officers Of
the companies, troops and batteries;
general officers and officers of the
staff departments serving with general
officers will receive s per cent, when
such officer has performed rs per cent
of the duties prescribed by the law
or orders from the commander-in-
chief.
Most members of the Mississippi
National Guard are working men, and
for that reason as much interest has
not been taken in the companies as
should, but with this system of pay for
the officers and enlisted men it will
create additional interest.
The captain, for instance, will re-
ceive about $45 month from the Fed
eral government, the lieutenants about
$25 to $50, with the corporals, SER
geants and other officers receiving
from SIS to 500 month.

PATRIOTISM.

Breathes there the man with soul
so dead
Who never to himself hath said,
This is my own, my native
land
Whose heart hath ne'er within
him burn'd
As home his footsteps he hath
turn'd
From wandering ON a foreign
strand?
If such there breathe, go, mark
him well!
For him no minstrel raptures
swell.
High though his titles, proud his
name.
Boundless his wealth as wish
can claim
Despite those titles, power and
pelf,
The wretch, concentered all in
self,
Living, shall forfeit fair renewn
And, doubly dying. shall go
down
To the vile dust from whence
he sprung
Unwept, unhonored and unsung.

GRAFT.

No city can be injured by the
enforcement of the peoples
laws. To do otherwise Is to
substitute the will Of the official
for the laws Of the people, and
that is tyranny. No state can
be hurt by exposing grating.
To do otherwise is to connive at
It. There is no secret remedy
known for evils Of this charac-
ter. They cannot be cured by
hiding them. The disgrace is
not in their correction, but in
submission to them with supine
indifference. 1t is well for q
state to display its virtues and
not to parade Its faults, but 1t
should not be forgotten that the
highest civic virtue is the over
throw of depravity.-Joseph W.

CORRECT SPELLING A LOST ART.


The inability of the rising genera
ton to spell correctly is giving pa
rents and educators much cause for
complaint, which is finding it's way
into the newspapers with increasing
frequency.
The other day DR.. James A. James,
local professor of history at North
western University, Evanston, ILL.,, re-
turned to his class their examination
papers, with the remark that many of
them contained spelling so bad that
it would not be tolerated by teachers
in the average third-grade schools of
the city. Some of the efforts" Prof.
James continued, "are really laugha-
BILE; the spelling that is done in the
universities generally is surprisingly
poor"
The reason for this caustic criti-
cism, Prof. James finds, is the method
employed in the public schools We
are not fully acquainted with the sys-
TEN employed in Illinois, but we take
it that it has come to be known as the
word" method, by which child is
made to spell before he learns the al
phabet. The absurdity of this ought
to be apparent to anyone, yet it ap-
pears that it is prevalent in all city
schools now, even in Yazoo City. 4
What this generation needs is to re-
turn to the old-fashioned blue-back
speller of our fathers, diminution of
"fads" and a renaissance of hard,
common sense.-Yazoo Sentinel.

There are three more saloons in
that city and one of these has
but thirty days more to keep
open, when its license expires.
All the saloons in Tempe have
