Has Serious Side
The serious side to the situation
with relation to state officials is that
If the heads of some of the depart
ments or any of their deputies whose
duties call them to various parts of
the state, cannot secure passes they
will be unable to make the trips for
the appropriations carried by the de-
partments will not stand the drain of
paying railroad transportation. The
state auditor, for instance, now has
in his department, an examiner whose
duties are to examine the books an
accounts of all state auditors. He will
be travelling practically all the time.
If free transportation is not allowed,
this official will be badly crippled in
the performance of his duty. The
pure food commissioner, the bank ex-
aminer, the insurance commissioner,
the mining inspector, the state game
warden and his deputies, the state
horticultural inspector and deputies,
and many other state officials and
deputies are required to do a great
deal of travelling. Their transporta-
ton bills will run into the thousands
of dollars year if they are not al
lowed to travel free over common car
riers in this state in performance Of
state duties. The roads can issue
passes to immigration commissioners.
They are the only exceptions.
Affects County Officials
The county officials appear to be
hit harder by the anti-pass clause of
the law than others Practically no
provision is made for the issuance of
passes to them, except by common
carriers within cities and towns or
electric lines. The sheriff's depart
ment will feel the blow worse than
any other part of the county govern
ment. In'the past and at the present
time the sheriffs of the various coun-
ties have been travelling ON passes
when going from one part of the state
to the other after prisoners. Under
the terms OF the new law they will
not receive passes unless the commits
sion can in some way manage to SO
provide them. The result will be that
the county government will have to
stand the expense Of transportation.
The sheriff's transportation expenses
in the county would be between $500
and $400 a year.
The law permits the railroads to
issue passes to their employees ant
immediate families. to employees OF
sleeping car companies, to soldiers and
sailors, to telegraph and telephone
company linemen, to ministers and
persons engaged in charity work.

THIS REPUBLICAN
MAY HOLD HIS
JOB
JUDGE TURLEY OF NATcHEZ EN-
DoRsED BY FOUR HUNDRED
BUSINESS MEN.

Jackson, Miss, Feb. 24.-An unique
situation has developed over the post
mastership at Natchez. Although he
is lifelong Republican, a former
Northerner, and close friend of the late
Mark Hanna, the most influential citi
zens of Natchez have given their in
dorsement to H. G. Turley, who was
appointed in July of last year.
Not only is Judge Turley a Repub-
lican, but he has been an active leader
in party affairs, and held the berth Of
Federal patronage referee for Missis-
sippi during the Mckinley administra-
ton.
Many of the influential citizens Of
Natchez believe, however, that mas
much as Judge Turley was appointed
for a term Of four years he ought to
be allowed to hold the office for that
period, regardless of how hungry any
Democratic aspirant may be. There
are two Democratic candidates, H. B.
Gather and w. D. Deterly. The for
mer is an aggressive aspirant, but the
latter bases his petition on the con-
tingency, "if change is to be made"
Four hundred business men of
Natchez have signed the petition ask
ing that Turley be retained, and, while
the attitude of the new congressman
from that district, Hon. Percy e. Quin,
has not been made public, 1t is believed
that their wishes will be respected.

niece OF JEFFERSON
DAVIS LAST OF
FAMILY
MRS. ELLEN ANDERSON FURNISH
ED MUCH OF HISTORICAL DATA
CONCERNING coNFEDERAcY.

Jackson. Miss, Feb. 24.-The late
Mrs. Ellen NJ. Anderson OF New Or
leans, whose funeral and interment
took place here yesterday, was a niece
of the late Jefferson Davis, a great
favorite with the chieftian of the Con-
federacy, and the last member of that
branch of the family.
Mrs. Anderson was also a niece of
the late Associate Justice s. S. CAL
hoon of the Mississippi Supreme Court,
who presided over the constitutional
convention of 1890 that raved the way
for other Southern states to eliminate
the negro from political affairs.
Mrs. Anderson had reached the ad-
vanced age of 90 years, and was in
full possession of her vigorous mental
faculties to the last. Her mind was
a veritable storehouse of historical
events concerning the ante bellum
South, and the Civil War period. Dur
ing the last days of Jefferson Davis at
Beauvoir, she spent much of her time
in the household of the vicarious suf-
ferer of the Lost Cause, and much Of
the historical data that has been writ
ten concerning Mr. Davis was cleaned
from her.
The death of Mrs. Anderson occur
red at the home of her relative, Mrs.
Lucy Roberts, in New Orleans. The
body was brought here Sunday and
carried to the home of Mrs. s. s. Cal
hoon, on North State street, where fun
eral services were conducted by Rev.
William Mercer Green, rector of st.
Andrews Episcopal Church. The in
terment was at Greenwood Cemetery
by the side of her husband, who passed
away many years ago.
