asked what they were doing with
that man.
He won't work, and he has
nothing to eat, so we are taking
him TO the cemetery to bury him

All friends of Commission Govern

it are urged to attend the meeting.
Every argument of the opposition will
be fully met and refuted and it will
be conclusively shown that the Com.

best form under which any city has

The Prison Board Feud
Is Gong Menily On

Jackson, Miss, April 10-The feud
between members of the prison board
OF trustees over methods of manage
ment goes merrily on. At the next
meeting of the board Trustee C. c.
Smith will endeavor to curtail the
power of the superintendent, DR.. J. G.
Gathings, who hitherto has followed
his own judgment only in planting
crops and the general management of
the institution.
Mr. Smith is of the opinion that the
superintendent has too much power,
and that he is transcending the au-
thority vested in him by the statutes,
but he has been unable to get his col
leagues, Messrs. w. A. Montgomery
and Leroy Taylor, to look at it that
way. In fact, any proposal made by
Mr.. Smith is certain to be opposed by
his colleagues, while, on the other
hand, Mr.. Smith is equally certain to
oppose any suggestion emanating
from either Supt. Gathings or Messrs.
Montgomery and Taylor.
At the recent legislative session
Trustee Smith secured the passage of
bill placing the Attorney-General
and Commissioner of Agriculture on
the prison board, but Governor Brew
er vetoed the measure, much to the
chagrin Of the member from the
southern district. He is now trying
to take FOUNDERS" on the opposing
faction, and will present at the next
meeting an opinion from Assistant At
torney-General Frank Johnston to the
effect that law governing the peni-
tentiary was not contemplated or in
tended to place so much power in the
superintendent, or make his authori-
ty exceed that of the board of trus-
tees, From reliable sources it is learn
ed that the other trustees will pay
about as much attention to this opin-
ion as Governor Brewer is paying to
