'MISSISSIPPI legislature)
Five weeks of the legislative session
of 1904 have now passed into history.
For some reason not easy tp dell le, or
for some numerous reasons, the two
houses have been unusually slow up
to this line in transacting business.
Only seven bills have been passed and
one of these is the bill providing for
the salary and mileage of members.
None of the regular appropriation
bills have been acted upon. The time
for the distribution of the common
school fund has passed and tho bill
making the appropriation is tied up
in tho senate ami may have to go to a
conference committee, in the mean
time the teachers must discount their
warrants. None of the State officials,
none of the judges and chancellors
and district attorneys have drawn
their January salaries, the general ap
propriation hill not having been re
ported. This bill is doubtless being
held to await action on tho question
of raising the salaries of the State
officials and the judges. The general
revenue bill has not been reported.
This is a very important measure in
more ways than that of merely raising
revenues for the State government,
for it carries the tax on privileges
and the proper adjustment of this
tax is essential to tho continued pros
perity and progress of the State. It
i3 more than probable that the com
mittee on ways and means will flnu
that the revenue hill can be framed so
as to prevent the necessity of any
increase in the tax levy, though a spe
cial levy will doubtless have to be
made to meet the interest on the bond
issue, which seems to be inevitable.
THIRTIETH DAY.
Local and private legislation was
the order of the day in the lower
house of the legislature this morn
ing. and a large number of bills of
this character were passed. One
measure' of general interest was that
dividing Marion county into two coun
ties, and naming the new county
"Lamar" in honor of the distinguished
jurist and statesman of that name.
The house committee on education
reported a committee substitute for
tho uniform school book bills intro
duced, and it now remains to be seen
which body will pass a measure of
this kind first.
In the senate several committees
made unfavorable reports on bills in
troduced during the past few days.
The Glover bill, changing the time of
holding Supreme Court terms, was
passed. Authority was given the lieu
tenant governor to appoint a commit
tee of five to report on a plan for a
new codification of the laws of the
State. The bill amending the feliow
servant rule was passed. A few r local
and private bills were passed.
Wells Vagrancy Bill.
The Wells vagancy bill, passed by
the house several days ago, and favor
ably reported in the senate last week
from the judiciary committee, will be
made the special order in the latter
body for some day this week.
The measure is returned to the sen
ate with a number of committee
amendments, the most important of
which is to give Circuit Courts con
current jurisdiction to try vagrancy
cases, preceded by grand jury prose
cution. The original bill confers jur
isdiction exclusively on justices of the
peace and mayors' courts. The maxi
mum punishment by fine is raised
from $100 to $250.
Confidence is felt that the senate
will pass the bill, and the house will
doubtless concur in the amendments,
as none of them are framed to render
the law' less drastic than in its orig
inal form. These amendments were
framed by Senator Dunn, acting chair
mai of the judiciary committee.
Salary Increase Proposed.
A highly important bill was intro
duced in the senate by Mr. Croom, of
Hinds, which seeks to raise the salar
ies of all State officers. The changes
proposed are as follows:
Governor and supreme judges, from
$4,500 to $5,000 per year.
Circuit judges and chancellors, from
$2,750 to $3,090 per year.
Attorney general, from $2,500 to $1,
000 per year.
Assistant attorney general, from $2,
000 to $3,000 per year.
All State officers now drawing $2,
,500 per year to $3,000 per year, aid all
officers drawing $2,000 a year to $2,
500 a year.
Chief clerks in auditor's office and
treasurer's office, from $1,250 to $1,
600 per year.
Ail department clerks drawing $1,
000 to $1,200 per year.
Changes are proposed in the salary
of every State official except the in
surance commissioner and State rev
enue agent, who draw their pay on the
fee system.
THIRTY-FIRST DAY.
After a spirited debate, lasting the
entire day, the lower house this after
noon defeated the ameidment provid
ing for constitutional prohibition, the
measure lacking eight votes of receiv
ing the required two-thirds majority
of those voting.
Of tho total membership of 133, the
yeas were 66, nays 43; total absent,
paired or not voting, 24; number nec
essary to carry amendment, 74. The
anti-prohibitioiists are in high glee
and the result seems to meet with
somewhat general approval, as the
movement to forever abolish open sa
loons from the State was not strongly
backed, receiving its chief support
from the ministers of the Methodist
and Baptist churches.
Discord within the prohibition ranks
was one of the causes contributing to
the downfall of the movement.. It is
understood that the prohibitionists will
immediately prepare and introduce a
'bill for statutory prohibition.
The speeches for the amendment at
the afternoon session were delivered
by Messrs. Kimbrough, Cavett, Ross,
Patterson and East.
The opposition addresses were made
by Messrs. Owens, Greaves, Winston,
Hicks and George. The ljquor prob
lem ii the State was thoroughly and
exhaustively reviewed and there was
a sharp cross-fire of debate and ques
tioning throughout the afternoon.
The vote was as follows:
Yeas—Allen, Arnold, Barber, Bird of
Lawrence, Blackwell, Bradford, Burge,
Burns, Butler, Bynum, Carothers,
Carrutliers, Cavett, Cooper, Cowley,

Mr. Smith, of Holmes, leader of the
prohibition forces, changed his vote
front aye to nay in order to enter a
motion to reconsider.
THIRTY-SECOND DAY.
"Statutory prohibition!" This is the
slogan of the vanqtiihsed hosts of yes
terday. The prohibitionists have not
given up the fight. The leaders de
clare that they will make one more
struggle for mastery. The scattered
remnants of tile army that went down
in defeat in the lower house yester
day are being rallied by the leaders,
and more legislation on the liquor
question is in prospect.
. Within the next few days a bill will
be introduced in the house providing
for statutory prohibition. It will be
intrusted to the same leadership which
has been in command since the be
ginning of the session, and will en
counter the same elements of opposi
tion.
A total of 109 votes were cast in
yesterday's balloting, 66 being for and
43 against the amendment, it lacked
eight votes of the number. The house
now contains 132 members, one mem
ber having died recently. Of the twen
ty-three members absent, nearly all
were paired.
Statutory prohibition is the first love
of many of the leaders who were de
feated in yesterday's battle. Prior to
the prohibition convention held in this
city last summer the sole theme was
a statutory measure. The constitu
tional amendment had not been pro
posed or thought of until the commit
tee made its report suggesting the en
actment of a constitutional' amend
ment, accompanied by a statutory law
to remain in force until tho consti
tutional amendment could be submit
ted to the people and be inserted ia
the constitution in case of successful
result.
A significant feature of yesterday's
voting was the fact that not all the
antagonists of the amendment were
from "wet" counties. Some of the
strongest speeches of the opposition
were made by members from "dry"
counties, and in nearly every instance
these members expressed tho belief
that the present local option laws aro
good enough. There was, in fact, a
coalition of some sort between the lo
cal optionists and opponents of con
stitutional prohibition.
The fight for statutory prohibition,
in the opinion of many members, will
be short, sharp and decisive. The
principal battle will be waged before
the house committee on liquor traffic,
and considerable doubt exists as to
whether this committee will make a
favorable report on the measure.
Black Eye to Motion.
Before the adjournment last even
ing, Mr. Smith, of Holmes, changed his
vote from aye to nay on the prohibi
tion amendment and entered a motion
to reconsider. This motion was called
up this morning shortly after the
house convened. On the point of order
that a motion to reconsider could not
be entered when a constitutional
amendment had failed, Speaker Thom
as took the matter under advisement
and decided that the point was well
taken. This sounded the death knell
of the amendment, so tar as the lower
house is concerned.
The house refused to consider the
bill allowing the boards of supervisors
to order special elections to decide on
the question of increasing the tax levy
to 3 mills for road purposes. There
was little or no opposition to the mo
tion to table.
Nothing further of general interest
transpired in the house, and the sen
ate wrangled over the text book bill
the greater part of the day, accom
plished nothing, went into executive
session and later adjourned for the
day.

Still With the Committee.
The senate finance committee still
has under consideration the house bill
appropriating $!,250,000 per annum for
the common schools of the State. The
body is apparently unable to agree
on the measure, some members favor
ing a reduction of the amount to $200,
000 or more on account of tho $300,
000 per annum extra the schools will
receive in the future on account of
the poll taxes being retained in the

Confederate Pension Bill.
The senate committee on finance
has finally made a favorable report on
the bill passed by tho house appro
priating $500,000 for the Confederate
pensions for the biennial period. The
bill has been under consideration for
over two weeks.
bjanslon Not to Be Sold.
The finance committee of the senate
has made a favorable report, with an
amendmeit, appropriating $2,500 for
repairs and new furniture at the gov
ernor's mansion, and this seems to
indicate that it is not the intention
of the State to sell the mansion prop
erty at this session, notwithstandiag
the fact that the sale was recommend
ed by the outgoing and incoming gov
ernors.
Important Bill Passed.
A bill of much importance passed
by the house is the measure to in
crease of the ad valorem tax for road
working purposes not to exceed 3 mills
on the dollar, and allowing boards ot
supervisors to make this maximum le
vee for road purposes. It is believed
that the measure, if enacted into law,
will aid greatly in solving the good
roads problem in Mississippi. The
commutation tax Is also increaMd by
tlia bill from $3 to $4.
Restraining Distrlot Attorneys.
A bill has been passed by the senate
prohibiting district attorneys from
forming law partnerships for civil
practice in their districts. Only one
vote was cast in opposition, Mr. Mo
i.aurin, of the Twentieth, voting
against It. The bill will affect at least
five district attorneys In the State.
A Rather Drastic Bill.
The seaate passed a rather drastic
bill providing that land owners may re
cover penalties of $250 in each in
stance where a railroad fails to build
a stock gap, recovery to be had with
out notice first being given the rail
road of the necessity of such gap.
Another "Freak" Bill,
Chairman Millsaps of the house Ju
dietary committee introduced in the
house last week, by request of one of
his Clay county constitueits, a bill
looking to tho extermination of Eng
lish sparrows and the propagation of
the screech owl. The bill contains
some novel and interesting provisions.
The remedy proposed in the bill for
the extermination of the sparrow was
doubtless suggested by the novel ex
pedient adopted by Moses when ho
was leading Pharaoh's army of con
quest into Ethiopia, to march his army
safely through a region infested by
deadly serpents.
It will be recalled
that Moses ordered his soldiers to
catch, every man, a kite, knowing the
appetite of this bird for the snake
kind. The soldiers caught the kites
and carried them in boxes, and when
the serpent region was reached the
kites were released and ate up the ser
pents.
The bill is as follows:
"An act for the abatement of the Eng--|
lish sparrow.
Section 1. That there shall be ap
propriated the sum of $25,000 to be dis
tributed pro rata in tho counties of the
State according to the population and
subject to be used on the authority
and direction of the board of supervis
oi*» of each county for the extermina
tion of the pestiferous English sparrow
wherever he swipes ruthlessly down
upon the vegetable gardens of the
State, 'like a wolf on me fold.
Sec. 2. That it shall be the duty of
the board of supervisors at their first
meeting in April to employ one com
petent hunter from each supervisors'
district in counties where needed,
whose duty it shall be to catch screech
owls and to trail them to catch Eng
lish sparrows, and present account of
$t00 for allowance by the board for
each owl so trained.
Sec. 3. It shall be the duty of the
clerk of the board of supervisors to
keep cages for such owls and to pro
vide them all additional food neces
sary, in case the sparrows shall not
afford said owls enough to sustain 1
the dignity and sufficiency of their |
menu, and said clerk shall be allowed {
a reasonable fee for the care and 1
i
maintenance of such owls.
Sec. 4. That this act be in force
from and after its passage."

Experiment Stations.
After one of the hardest fights of the
session the house last week passed j
bills providing for two additional agri
cultural stations, one in the delta and j
one in North Mississippi, in the red j
clay region. Several other bills for
stations in other parts of the State j
were reported adversely by the com- J
mittee, and the members from these j
sections fought hard and exhausted '
all the tactics known to parliamentary j
usage to force the friends of the two i
successful bills to a compromise. The 1
delta bill had smooth sailing, but the !
North Mississippi bill was made the
center of attack, and numberless i

The Maybrick Case.
The telegraph has already announced
the release from an English prison of
Mrs. Maybrick, whose case has attract
ed so much attention in this country. j
Florence, the daughter of the late j
W. A. Chandler, a banker of Mobile,
was married a number of years ago to
James Maybrick, an English cotton I
buyer, who divided his time between
England and the United States in the (
prosecution of his business, and died !
in Liverpool in 18S9, under circum
stances that gave rise to the belief |
that he had been poisoned.
His wife was a very handsome |
woman, who wa3 suspected of the j
gravest infidelity to her marriaga !
vows, and she was charged with hav- I
ing caused her husband's death by ar- j
senical poisoning. It was known that j
Maybrick was in the habit of taking j
doses of arsenical preparations under
0 belief that they would operate to
increase his physical vigor, and he
bad earned this practice to such an
extent that his health had broken
QOWn -
When Maybrick died, as he did after
an illness of some time, the charge
was made that the man was poisoned,
^ suspicion rested on the wife. It
was k now n that arsenical compounds
were repeatedly purchased from the
neighboring druggists and were kept
the house of Maybrick, being admin
istered to him by his wife and others,
These facts were brought into court,
and a post mortem examination of
Maybrick '3 body showed the presence
arsenic.
it should tie remembered that ar
senic is a mineral and is not decom
posed like vegetable poisons, but re
mains in the human body and is easily
detected. Very much the same class
facts existed in the Maybrick case,
were brought out iu that of a New
Orleans woman who married a-man in
Kansas a dozen or more years ago.
Her husband was ii the habit of tak
ing arsenic as a special tonic, and he
died from it. His wife was charged
with his murder by poisoning, and was
tried on it in the Kansas courts and
was acquitted.
Mrs. Maybrick in all probability
would have been acquitted in a United
States criminal tribunal, but she was
tried in Liverpool. Her supposed im
morality was extremely prejudicial to
her case, and she was condemned to
death, but the death sentence wag com
muted to imprisonment for life. After
fifteen years of confinement at hard la
bor, she has been released on a special
license or ticket-of-leave, which wifi in
all probability allow her to reside in
America.
Disgraced and with her beauty wast
ed and gone, she has little left her no*
save repentance and efforts to amend
her life. It is a pitiful case.—Plcay
