tho State lawmaking bodies.
After each legislative session the
courts are kept busy until the next
session convenes undoing the mis-
chief perpetrated by incompetent
Legislators.
Several statutes have already been
passed by the Mississippi Legislature
that excite both amusement and de-
rision among able lawyers who
know full well that these measures
will be declared unconstitutional
when they reach the courts.
Worse still, it not only costs
money to make these useless laws.
but it costs money TO wipe them on
the statute books after they have
been written. to say nothing Of the
turmoil. the uncertainty and the
dissatisfaction they produce.
1t is easy enough to find the
cause Of this, and equally to point
the remedy. but the trouble is that
the people will not take the remedy
even when they realize its merit.
In many Of our counties the
voters, il seems, send men TO the
Legislature chiefly for the purpose
Of getting rid Of them at home for a
few months. They elect men TO
come to Jackson and transact public
business, involving many millions
of dollars and untold property in
terests. tc say nothing OF human
liberty. whom they would not dare
trust with the Transaction Of their
private business.
For instance, suppose you had @
piece Of business requiring the SER
vices Of first-class lawyer? How
manv men are there in the Missis-
sippi Legislature in whose hands you
would be willing to place that busi-
ness? Well, not very many.
Until the people are awakened to
the fact that the making Of laws II
an important function Of the State
government, we will have a con-
tinuation Of congested court dockets
and the judiciary will be kept busy
setting aside foolish legislation.-

Patriotism

A nation is made great, not by its
fruitful acres. but by the men who
cultivate them; not by its great
forests, but by the men who use
them; not by its mines, but by the
men who worklin them: not by its
railways, but bv the 3nen who build
s1,1lsasr, thepat - ~ was ! sres:
land when Columbus discovered it;
Americans have made Of it a great
Nation.
In 1776 our fathers had vision of
new Nation conceived in liberty
and dedicated To the proposition
| that all men are created equal. =
Without an army they fought the
greatest of existing world empires
that they might realize this vision.
A third of century later, without
a navy they fought the greatest navy
| in the world that they might win
| for their Nation the freedom of the
seas. Half a century later they
fought through an unparalleled Civil
War that they might establish for
all time on this continent the in
| alienable right of life, liberty, and
the pursuit of happiness. A third
of century later they fought to
emancipate an oppressed neighbor,
and. victory won, gave back Cuba
| to the Cubans, sent an army OF
schoolmasters to educate for liberty
the Filipinos, asked no war in
demnity from their vanquished
enemy, but paid him literally for
his property. Meanwhile they offer
ed land freely to any farmer
who would live upon and cultivate
lit, opened to foreign immigrants on
equal terms the door of industrial
opportunity, shared with them
political equality, and provided by
universal taxation for universal
education.
The cynic who can see in this
history only theme for his egotisti.
Lcal satire is no true American. what.
ever his parentage, whatever his
birthplace. He who looks with
Irr;1a v,o,, this historv which his
fathers have written by their heroic
deeds. who accepts with gratitude
the inheritance which they have be
queathed to him. and who highly
resolves to preserve this inheritaqcs
qnimpaired and to pass it on to hi
descendants enlarged and enriched
is a true American, be his birthplace
or his parentage what it may.
