SUPREME COURT WgRGS HARD
HAS ESTABLISHED ENvIABLE REC
ORD IN FIRST TEN WEEKS.
Up to the Present No Dissenting Opinion
Has Been Handed Down at
This Term. -.

Jackson.-Among members of the bar
who have watched the Supreme Court OF
Mississippi at work for years past 1t IS
the concensus of opinion that the present
body of men on the bench are preserving
the record established by preceding
courts for thorough, painstaking and
downright hard work. When the court
assembled it marked the commencement
of the tenth week Of the new term. 1t
is noted with considerable interest that
during that period, while there nave been
a numk?r of cases handled involving
close and difficult legal propositions and
on which precedents and authorities are
mixed and divergent, there has not been
so far during the term a single dissenting
opinion presented.
The court is adhering to the rule laid
down at the outset of the trem as to the
disposal of cases upon which it may ap-
pear that either one side or the other has
built up It's cause on technical bubbles
and immaterial points, and this proceed
ure accorAnts very materially for the
number of cases handled so readily and
with 50 little delay. There is not a more
hard-working body of state officials OF
Mississippi than these three men who sit
to determine the rights as between APP
pellant and appelle and the clerical staff
or the court realizes this fact.

THEM UP TOO STRONG

Here is an emigration story told at

In a village was a youth who had got
himself into such a variety Of scrapes
that his people thought 1t would be
better to dispatch him to Canada, so
as to get him away from old and
doubtful associations. He agreed to
so, provided those interested in his
departure secured him some testimo-
malls Half-a-dozen we're got for him.
They sang his praises in un~restrained
terms, spoke Of his geniality. and all
the other virtues that few men have.
but many get the credit for.
When the young mar read the tes-
timonials he turned to his father and
exclaimed:

FUNDS IN TREASURY LOW.
Few Confederate Pension Warrants
Have Been Taken UP.

Jackson.-At the state treasury de-
partment it is stated that only about
$4,000 or $4,000 in Confederate pen
sion warrants have been taken up SC
far, out of a total distributed of $780,
900. While practically all of the hold
ers of pension certificates have received
the money due them, less discount, the
banks are holding the warrants as col
lateral. and will continue to hold them
until the treasury is in such condition
as to warrant taking up the entire is-
sue.
While there is some money in the
treasury, Treasurer Stovall is nursing

Never Liked Oats.

Frenchmen have never liked oats;
doctors have urged them to try the
national dish Of the Scotch, but they
have politely refused.
But n group Of F%renchmen could
not escape; this was a company of the
One Hundred and Twenty eighth in
fantry. whose captain insisted that
his men should eat oatmeal p~orridge
for a month. He had the oatmeal
toasted to improve the taste.
To their surprise, his men found that
after a month of maneuvers they did
not have a single man on the sick list,
while other companies had as many
as a dozen. They have made up their
minds that oats are not SO bad after
all.

A POOR OYSTER SEASON.
Bivalves Taken on Coast Are Young and
Small,

SAAAOA
misunderstanding to advices from
the Mississippi coast, the oyster season
has been a decided disappointment, and
the catch thus far is below the standard
of former seasons.
Although good weather has prevailed,
the oysters taken are young and small,
many of them being barely over the size
limit.
This is attributed chiefly to the large
quantity of fresh water dumped into the
Mississippi sound by the Father of Wa
tiers during the great overflow period
last May and June. The spring and
summer freshets, when of unusual du-
ration, always cause much injury to the
oyster beds.
Veteran fishermen say, however, that
a splendid crop of oysters is promised
for next year, especially on the reefs
where the commission has planted large
quantities of shells during the past
three years.

JUDGES SALARIES
NOT FORTHCOMING
APPROPRIATIONS INSUFFICIENT TO
PAY THEM IN FULL.
THEY MUST WAIT WHOLE YEAR
Two ChancelOrs Deprived of Salary
Money for November and None Were
Able to "Cash In" for Deem
Der Services.

Jacksonville judges were not able
TO get any money from the state in pay
ment of their services for this month.
As a matter of fact, two of the judges,
those from the Second and Ninth dis
tricts, were left out in the cold when the
November salaries were paid because
they were the last to come forward for
their monthly stipend, and by the time
they reached the auditors office the
entire appropriation for the salaries of
chancellors for 1919 had been exhausted.
Auditor d. l.. Thompson, notified
Gov. Brewer of this condition, and in
speaking of it later the chief executive
S. ID he had no authority to do anything
to relieve the situation. He said the
judges simply would have to wait until
the next session Of the legislature made
an appropriation to cover the delinquen-
cies.
The appropriation for 1912 lacks
something more than s2,70O in meeting
the entire payroll this year of the judges.
The sum of $25,062.5O was appro-
priated for 1912, and $25,5OO for 1915.
1t seems that the legislature overlooked
the fact that there were ten instead of
nine chancellors, and the appropriations
were based upon figures to pay nine men.
This largely accounted for the present
condition, together with the fact that
some of the judges terms expired, dur
ing which time they were paid $229.15 a
month, and the incoming judges, under
a law passed by the last legislature, were
entitled to a raise" and came in for
$3.50 a month.
In 1913, barring. any designations or
vacancies, there VS.. be enough to pay
nine judges their salaries, but when it
m to paying ten the sum of about
$2,S00 will be lacking to make up the
necessary amount, so that the appro-
priation for next year will be shy about
the same sum as this year.
