h- done to maintain the m-)ioo a
minimum session of seven mouths.
Some might objt that a srliool
distriet four miles sjuare would lo-
;lt the x ltoo lullx- too far from
Millie of till pupils, hut the hill
provides against this obj tioii hy
authorizing the trustees and county
superintendent to provide freetrans
itoitatioii to and from the school
house for pupils residing more than!
half a mile distant.
The Weekly is of the opinion that
this hill ought to In-come a law.
The numerous small school houses
dotted on almost every hill in Mis
sissippi atford too meagre facilities
of talent, interest or U nelit to the
children to mea.-ure comiiiciisuratc
ly with the enormous amount of
money dishurscd to the teachers.
The 1 rest educational talent of the
State has Iteeii hammering for years
to impress the Legislature with the
necessity of enacting some law hy
which these almost worthless schools
may U- consolidated into strong
central institutions of learning and
the vast amounts of money that are
wasted in them yearly In- made to
Itcar returns to the children of the
State.
The Weekly K li. ves that it has
evidence that the jK-ople of Missis
sippi are ready and desire some leg
islation under which they can se
cure a higher class of education in
the country. In support of this
tosition it desires to cite four com
munities in Monroe county thai
have, within the past twelvemonths,
contrihuted of their private means
amounts aggregating seven thous
and dollars to secure just sucl
schools as are eontcniplatd in tin
McFarland hill, and, if straws indi
cate which way the wind Mows, it
iK-clirs to this paper that the Legis
lature will give Mr. McFarland's
hill favorahle consideration, and
enact it into law.
The I mi ly ot lcll. Joe Wheeler,
escorted hy military officers, con
gressmen and distinguished civi
lians, was laid to rest among his
comjx-crs, in Arlington cemetery on
Jan. Luth. The Blue and the (J ray
mingled in consistent harmony to
pay homage to the dead warrior and
statesman.
Christian X, King of Denmark,
died at Coienhagen, at the advanced
age of NS, on Monday. His death
was sudden resulting from heart
failure.
(Jovernor Vardaman has extend

January. This will terminate the
session almiit the middle of April.

Old Sunj? to an Old Tune.
Information comes from Wash
ington that no more negnx-s will U
apMinted to Federal ollices in the
South. Those who now hold places
will U relieved of their johs as S4Hn
as their terms of oll'ice expire, and
acceptahle white men will U ap

The uhitve looks very well on pa
Iht and is calculated to fool cred
ihle eope into U liev'nig that it
w ill actually iH-ctir, hut those who
aire aopiainted with the I ml icy of
tlie Ih-puhlieau administration, will
promptly recognize it as an old song
played over to the same old tune.
It may not In exactly to the desire
of President ItooseVelt to hold ne
groes ill the most imimrtaut Federal
ollices in the Suth, hut he is a
slave to his own amhitioiis and to
a iirty whom imlitical supremacy
is deMndent on keeping alive sec
tional ditYerenci-s differences which
can Iest inrntuated hy playing
two strings, humiliation of the
Southern white people and a mis
conceived jHTsecution of the hlack
man. It is also reputed in then
advices that the change in the
President's lmlicy is due to his re
cent visit to the South, in which he
acquired a correct understanding
and appreciation of the Southern
iM-ople. This, strengthened hy the
advice of Hooker T. Washington,
who stands avowedly opposed to
the apointiiicnt of negroes to office
in the South, has determined the
President.
Certainly, no Southern w hite man
will take issue with what Mr. j
Roosevelt has decided to do, hut !
thousands of them are doiihting j
Thomases, and, in the opinion, of
State Reformatory School. j
A hill to create aii industrial and j
reformatory school for criminal Imysj
from eight to sixteen years old has j
U'cn introduced into the Legisla-'
ture hy Representative J .M. Iloyle, j
of Lee county.
The hill cm hod ics the idea
' f
making the school, in some measure,
self supimrting hy providing an an
nex of 11 M) acres of land, whereon
the Imys may lie made to produce
something, as well as acquire hahits
of industry.
The idea carried is to lessen crime!
in the State through the influence
of education and moral training,
which a school of this sort would
supply to lmys left without such
aids, and, who inadvertently, step
hy step, sink to criminal careers.
"The moral purport of the hill is
praiseworthy, and, if the end pro-
posed, in any proluihility would lie
accomplished ly its enactment into
law, the school should In cs

aside. Those who have seen this
good old play go the second and
even the third time; audience after
audience are please 1 and surely if
the heart is once satisfied the play
has pleased. Who les not go to
see a circus? Why, everyliody. So

has advanced the alary of its pas
tor, Rev. J. E. Cunningham, to
SI,. TO). This is a raise of 25 per
cent over the salary heretofore paid,
and marks a progress in church af
fairs that has been a crying need
since the cost of living has advance!
so materially. The Methodist
churches of the towns in Alierdeen's
class, Columbus and Tupelo, have
advanced the salaries of their pas
tors to 81,800, and purely, the

abreast with them. Every fair
minded church inemlier will endorse
the lmard's action, if he pauses long
enough to realis-e that the church
her1 must give equal financial
support to its pastors as do churches
of other towns of like size, or it will
be only a matterof time ln-fore Al
erdeen will le forced to secondary
talent instead of the lest, as at pres
ent and heretofore.
