NEWS AND VIEWS FROM
THE STATE CAPITOL
BY ;. r. sirdsaIl.


School teachers who enjoyed their
visit to the capital city, their being
several thousand present, at the state
teachers convention, are expressing
qualification over the fact that the re-
cent Legislature passed a bill authoriz-
ing boards OF supervisors of the so
counties OF Mississippi to borrow
money to pay school teachers where
ever there was a deficiency in the
school fund until al collecting time,
throughout the state. Like authority
is granted boards of supervisors TO
borrow money for contractors who
transport children to and from consol
idated schools.

Announcements have been received
by leading citizens of the capital, in.
Guiding bankers, and members of the
constitutional convention, of the gold
en- wedding Of Isaiah T. Montgomery,
and many good wishes have gone to
him from his white friends here and
elsewhere throughout Mississippi.
Montgomery was the slave and private
secretary OF jefferson Davis. He was
the only negro In the constitutional
convention Of Mississippi Of 1890, and
signed the organic law. He is the
founder Of Mound Bayou, exclusively
populated by colored people.
The Kinds county board of super
visors did not hesitate a moment
when they met in Jackson to appro-
pirate $1,000 to aid In the construction
OF the hospital for the old soldiers at
Beauvoir. They responded instantly to
the request of the Daughters Of the
Confederacy and the Sons of Veterans,
who appeared before that body. Word
reaches Jackson that a great many
boards OF supervisors have made like
appropriations, and that the board in
Harrison county made the appropria-
ton before the committee arrived and
notified them of the fact, when they
asked for q hearing.
The distressing news Ia brought to
the capital city by farmers from the
surrounding country that the cold and
rainy weather during the latter part
Of April and the first Of May, did con-
siderable damage to cotton, in some
localities giving 1t sore shank" The
apprehension is expressed that cut
worms may do considerable damage to
corn, having already made their APP
pearance in some sections. 1t is gen
orally agreed that the u%nfavorable
weather has delayed farming opera
tons for at least two weeks.
Contrary to expectations, there r
more candidates for judges and chan.
cellors throughout the state than was
anticipated. The Legislature left the
salary of both judges and c%hancellors
at 81, 900. There are II circuit judges
and IL chancellors, all Of whom must
be nominated in the August primaries,
and in some of the districts there are
several candidates, including the in
cumbents, and the indications point to
the fact that every incumbent may
have an opponent.

way Of keeping up the study. Attorney
