MUCH INTEREST
IN THE REVIVAL
Pastor Solomon Continues to Preach
Powerful ermons-Addtions to
Church at Every Service.

The services at the Columbia Street
church continue in interest and power.
The subject at the morning session
yesterday was with Men it is Impos-
sible; With God All Things Are Posi-
ble.' Christ for us, Christ in us,
Christ through us, gives us omnipo-
tent faith. Faith is the only condi-
tion for fellowship in power.
The evening services were we'll at
tended, the house being comfortably
filled. The song and prayer service is
an enjoyable feature of the meeting.
The subject for the evening address,
Shining Against the Holy Ghost, or
the objectionable Sin," was handled
in masterful way by Pastor Solomon.
All scriptures bearing on the subject
were read and explained At the close
of the service six united with the
church, making a total of 43 since the
meeting began.

INCREASE IN INDUSTRIES
IN STATE QUITE Large
WESTERN BOOSTERS
VISIT HATTIESBURG
Here in Interest of Panama-CaIifornla
Exposition and of Southern
Railroads.

Mr.. G. Grosvener Dave, managing di-
rector of the Southern Commercial
Congress, who will be the principal
speaker at the dollar dinner at the Ho-
tel Hattiesburg tomorrow evening was
in the city for few minutes this
morning. Accompanying Mr.. Dave
were Mr.. D. c. Collier, director general
and Mr.. Winfield Hogaboom, director
OF publicity of the Panama
California Exposition to be
held at San Diego, Cal, in
1915. These last named gentlemen
are visiting the principle Southern
cities in an effort to enlist the COOP
Grafton of the commercial bodies and
railroads in directing travel to the
1915 eXpositions via Southern routes.
Mr. Collier on yesterday addressed the
Atlanta Chamber of Commerce in the
interest of this plan and states he has
never addressed a more enthusiastic
audience, and the Atlanta people were
strongly impressed with the idea and
pledged their support and cooperation
Messrs. Collier and Hogaboom we're
enroute to New Orleans, where they
will lay their plan before the Pro
gressive Union of that city tonight.
These gentlemen seek to help their
own show by helping the South. 1t
is fact, Mr.. Collier states, that for
every one traveller to the Pacific coast
who goes by way of the Southern
route that nineteen go by the Northern
routes, and it is their object to have
the transportation companies offer re
duced rates and stop-over privileges
to tourists that this traffic may be
doubled and they may see the South
incidental to visit to or from the
San Diego exposition.
Mr. Dave accompanied the gentle
men to New Orleans. but win return
tomorrow to be present at the dinner
tomorrow evening. He goes to New
Orleans to meet there today a COM
mittee of ten appointed by the Pro-
gressive Union and discuss the pro-
posed Panama Canal Commemoration
in 1913, under the auspices of the
Southern Commercial Congress.

WHERE income
TAX NOW STANDS
Thirty States Have Ratified The Pro.
posed Amendment-only Five
More Needed.

Thirty states have ratified the pro
posed income tax amendment. The
thirty are Alabama, Indiana, Georgia
North Dakota, Colorado, Washington,
Illinois, Iowa, Oklahoma, California,
Michigan, South Carolina, Wisconsin,
Idaho, Arkansas, Maine, Maryland,
Missouri, Kansas, Nevada, Ohio, North
Carolina, South Dakota, Montana, Ten
nessee, Kentucky, Mississippi, Ne
braska, Oregon and Texas-30 all told.
The problem now is to get five more
before the legislatures are all ad-
journed without day The legislatures
of Florida, New York and Massachu-
setts are in session, and all three may
vote to ratify. Florida surely will, and
the upper house in New York has so
voted, and so has the lower house in
Massachusetts.
Assuming that the three, will ratify.
where are the other two to be OBJ
tanned this year? 1t is easy to see
where they will be had next year. but
it is not so easy to see where they
are to be secured this year. Nor is
it easy to see why Louisiana failed to
ratify, although her action was proba-
bly, part of her sugar politics. Vir-
ginia and West Virginia are two more
mysteries, a negative vote having been
guumshoed through one branch of
each legislature. Senator Martin may
know why this was done but no one
else does.
If Arizona and New Mexico are ad-
mitted six more votes will be required
but the two states would probably
cast two Of them and then but four
votes would be needed, and If New
York, Florida and Massachusetts vote
as 1t is thought they will only one
more state would be needed. That
state win be found this year il the
contest becomes that close.--Birming-
ham Age Herald.

MONACO NOW HAS
A new COUNCIL

Monte Carlo, May 2.-Monaco's new
national assembly, formed under the
constitution recently granted by the
prince to his subjects, met today. The
parliament is composed of twenty-one
members, who are to be elected every

year. in May and October.
The agitation for a constitution con.
tinued three years before the prince
gave his consent last Janus The
principality contains 10000 habit
ants, of whom 1880 are foN igners
and 1.500 citizens. OF the latter $50

born Monegasques. Although univer-
sal suffrage was granted under the con-
stitution, only 44S votes were cast in
the election for members of the ma
tlonal assembly. OF the voters, only
ninety-five were native born. The
principality comprises S75 acres, for
eigners owning more than half. The
Monegasques own 30,OO0,OOO francs
worth of real estate and foreigners
310,000,000 francs worth. The princi-
pal wealth of the country is derived

lin county grand jury met today to in

THE MEXICAN PEACE
ENVOY HAS power
(By Associated PreSS.)

Ell Paso, Tex, May Eff Judge
Carabajal does not bring with him full
credentials from President Diaz, it will
be due to an oversight, and we will
get them by telegraph" This state
ment was made today by one of the
go-betweens here in connection with
the peace negotiations. The tardiness
in Judge Carabajal reaching the city
is explained as due to a misunderstood.
ing as to where the negotiations are
to be held.

by a cash bonus of $25O,O0O and land
in addition.
Declaring his belief that the govern
ment could not last one year without
the lawyer to guide it, Judge Hill ex-
pressed the hope that the lawyers of
the state would see the unjust appor-
tionment of senators from this dis
trict, which is the same, now that the
country is built up and thickly popu-
lated, as it was years ago when it was
a barren waste almost. He closed by
assuring the visitors of the pleasure of
Hattiesburg in entertaining them,
and of the city's desire, as well as the
local Bar Association, to give them a
royal welcome.

Hon. Earl Brewer introduced.


President Powell then introduced
Hon. Earl Brewer, as "the next Gov
ernor of Mississippi"
Mr.. Brewer gave the response on
behalf of the State Bar Association, in
place of Hon. Sykes, of Aberdeen, and
he began by saying laughingly, "a
man who's tried as hard as / have to
be Governor ought to respond to that
call" Assuring the audience that the
association was glad to meet here and
that they knew before they came they
would have royal welcome, he COM
plimentingly explained the small num-
Der of representatives in the Senate
from this district by saying that the
few men sent were equal to a large
number of representatives from other
districts, and therefore more were not
needed, perhaps.
Mr.. Brewer declared it right and
just that South Mississippi should
have equitable representation, and no
one will be quicker 70 join to give
them that representation than the
State Bar of Mississippi"
Mr.. Brewer closed by thanking the
city and its bar on behalf of the State
Bar Association and the leaders ac-
companying them, for the hearty well
come.

Foreigners IN China
ARE REPORTED SAFE
(BY Associated Press.l

Hong Kong, China, May 2.-Today's s
advices from China, where the revolu-
tionary movement originated, indicate
that the foreigners have escaped
harm. The government seems to be
in control of Canton. The reports
from the West River section are mea-
gre, as the rebels have destroyed all
telegraphic communication. 1t appears,
however, that the w. U. Sum leader
of the anti-Manchu forces is working
westward, after having raided six
towns.

THE TAX ON MONEY.

Speaker Paul E. Stillman in the
Jefferson Bee: The repeal of the ferret
law, if the senate concurs therein,
should be followed by radical read
justment of the laws for the taxation
of moneys and credits. The present
statutes are unfair and unjust, and are
putting Iowa in a desperate condition.
Instead of being able to profit by our
enormous wealth and rich productive
ty, we are desperately short of money.
Our people with surplus of money
which ought to be available for loan
ing in Iowa are either leaving the state
or sending their money away. 1t is
almost impossible to secure farm mort.
gage loans. Sentiment in the house
strongly favors the laying of fiat net
tax of a half of l per cent on all mon
eys and credits. This is the Pennsyl.
vania system. 1t is equivalent to 70
throughout the state is 40 mills, but
inasmuch as it is we'll known that real
estate is only estimated at half its
real value, while money is taken at
it's full value, it is fair that this fact
should be recognized in the fixing OF
the fiat tax. If this thing is done l am
in favor of eliminating all question as
to the collection of the tax, by provid'
ing that every credit, to be good and
collectable, if carried over the first OF
January, shall show the assessors
stamp, as prima facie evidence that
the tax has been paid. That system
would back the ferret system clear off
the boards and believe that under
such tax the most of our Iowa money
would come back to Iowa, and good
many Iowa people who have been
driven away by unjust taxation would
come back with it.

Salutary Example.

Every legal expedient for delay
having been exhausted, and their ap-
peal for executive clemency having
been made in vain to, the president,
five wealthy Alabama lumbermen
have entered the federal prison at At.
lanta to serve penal sentences for the
crime of peonage. Pity will be ex-
tended to the families Of these men,
but the event itself cannot but be re.
garded as one of the most important
and significant In the whole course
of the recent awakening of the pub
lie conscience. 1t is a demonstration
to the country that only by holding to
personal accountability the men re.
sponsible for violation of the law can
respect and obedience to law be en-.
forced. The futility of fines as a pun
ishment in such cases has been
shown, but 1t will only require few
such applications of the law as in
these Alabama convictions to instill
a wholesome regard for law every.
