By-Bye to the Preps.

In event the legislature cuts out the
preparatory department at the In
dustrial Institute & College and A.
& M. College, which appears newt
able, it will mean heavy reduction
in the appropriations for the support
of those institutions, each of which
asked for a larger appropriation than
last year.
The house passed the anti-prep bill
by an overwhelming majority, and it
will be scooted through the senate in
the same manner. In fact, the presi-
dents of the two institutions realize
the futility of fighting it, and will not
offer further resistance.
The appropriation thus saved will
probably be applied to the support of
the common schools and the agricul-
tural high schools.

Stenographers Lost Out.

Court stenographers will not re-
ceive pay for the court terms as
scheduled, but merely for the actual
time employed, as at present, the bill
on this subject having been defeated
by vote of 26 to II in the senate yes
terday.
A hard fight was made by the Mis-
sissippi Court Stenographers Associa-
ton to secure the passage of the bill.
The main argument offered was that
the stenographers, not being respon-
sible for the pretermittment or aban-
donment of court terms, should not
be denied compensation for the time
out of employment; that they are al
ways on hand, ready and willing to
work. and, except in rare instances,
are unable to find special employment
when court terms are abandoned.
However, the senate couldn't see it
that way, and the measure was
slaughtered.

Jackson, Miss, Jan. PA delega-
ton of Yazoo county citizens, appoint
ed by the Yazoo City Commercial
club, is expected to visit Jackson to-
morrow to announce its opposition to
the proposed creation of new coun-
ty composed of portions of Yazoo,
Washington and Leflore.
This new county fight developed
very unexpectedly, and originated
with some ambitious citizens of Bel-
zoni, in Yazoo county, who desire to
have that place made the county seat.
A similar campaign was launched two
years ago, but it was squelched in
the committee on local and private
legislation, and the Yazoo county con-
tingent expects the measure now in
prospect to take the same course.
The proposed new county would take
practically all of Beat No. 5 from va
zoo county.
Nothing has yet been done with the
other new county fights, one from
Harrison and the other from Carroll,
but the prospects for their creation
do not appear to be especially bright

ers in the lower house, there Is every
reason to believe that the legislature

Owen last week provided for adjourn
ment sine die on Feb. gath, but it may
take a few days longer to clear the

"As soon as we get into the appro-

to see adjournment in sight," says Mr..
Owen. "Of course, there are a num-

College Politics.

College politics is playing a conspic-
uous part in the legislative session,
and the conflict centers about the
Burkitt bill which seeks to abolish
the general board of trustees having
Jurisdiction over the four principal
state colleges, and substituting the
old single board system. composed
Of five members each.
In event this plan is carried out, it
is rumored that President ]. c. Hardy
will be displaced at the A. & M Col
lege, and the place given to Hon.
George r. Hightower, former presi-
dent Of the farmers union, and now
president of the farmers Warehouse
Company, an adjunct of the former
organization.
Disquieting reports are also float
ing about that some of the legislators
are after the scalp of Chancellor A.
A. Kincannon, of the University, and
hope to bring it about through the
adoption of the single board system.
A legislative fight on President
Hardy was being fomented two years
ago by his personal and political OPP
ponents, but it was kept down chiefly
through the influence Of Governor
Noel. Mr.. Hightower, who is mention
ed for the succession. has also been
regarded as a likely candidate for
Governor four years hence, and it is
broadly limited that this may afford
some reason why his name has been
connected with the college presidency.
He is not an educator, and has had
no form of training for educational
work, but his friends assert that he
has shown exceptional executive abili-
ty in the management of the Farm
er's Union and its allied enterprises.

County Attorneya1ips.

County AttorneyS1ips.
There has been such a decided re-
versal of sentiment during the past
few days relative to the county at
torneyship fight that many members
believe, if final action is postponed for
one week, that no change will be made
in this statute.
Certain it is, all prospects of abol-
ishing the office outright have gone
glimering, and legislative sentiment
is divided between the referendum
plan set forth in the Norwood bill, and
the idea outlined in several other bills
to make the existence of the office
optional with the boards of supervis-
ors. The chances seem to favor the
Norwood bill.
The county attorneys were repre-.
sented at the committee hearing by
Messrs. j. e. Rankin of Lee. ]. B..
Holden of Pike, and o. B. Taylor of
Kinds, who presented splendid argu-
ments showing why the office should
continue in existence, and the good re-
suits that have been achieved through
this agency for the administration of
justice during the past two years.
