irncui JorRSAL of unsos and creese conm OFFICUlJOI'Ria OF TOE MTSCliSTO!l mTmaVe rsT- edTtorT Scran ton, Mississippi: FRIDAY, ,....,. ..JULY 21, 1803. TO ADVERTISERS. " Tito DKMOORAT-STAH is tlio oldest . newspaper of tho Mississippi Unit" Coast; lias a larger bona fide circu lation than any other news paper in this section ; there fore it is tho besl advertising medium. Advertisers, bear this in mind. 11k smiles und is a villain still. The summer girl is hero In her glory. . . . , The Republic of France is tottering on the brink of a revolution. Edison thinks that the railway speed of the future will be 150 miles an hour. .. The Aberdeen Examiner predicts there will be a great reaction in silver before Congress meets. Making slates and breaking slates goes on npaco In political circles hereabouts. Money is not quite so tight. The Kcw York financiers see daylight ahead. This Is n good sign. . TnK North Mississippi Democrat thinks "a more generous use of rope will stop the whitecap business." , When a man is about to fail ho us usually tries to work nil his friends into the trouble. And he often suc ceeds. TnB New York World coined the new word "slzzard" und now the Memphis Commercial comes to the front with "Jackassry." Ben Folsom has been removed as Consul to Sheffield, England, simply because he was a relative of Mrs. Cleveland. That's right. Mr. W. E. Jackson, a Montgomery county farmer, raised seven und a half bushels of wheat per acre this year and thinks it paid him. The Times-Democrat of Sunday contained an exact diagram of a Louisiana lady's foot. Let us have more, brother Times-Democrat. The Dkmockat-Stau never fails to denounce vice, crime, fraud, cor ruption, oppression, and in maintain ing the right hews to the lino, and let the chips fall where they may. Camp meeting is over, but the summer visitor is nicely and comfort ably fixed in their tents for the heat ed term. Sea Shore Camp Ground Is more a summer resort than anything else. TnE Chicago Herald commenting on the fact that a silver dollar Is now worth only 53 cents, says that when a man is called a silver-tongued orator he will be compelled to discount the compliment 4 percent. Pennsylvania Is said to have more timber than all the other North At lantic Slates put together, seven times as much as Sew York, one-half more than Maine, and more than any other of the Western St ates, short of those on the Paci He Coast. U. S. Senatok Squiue, of the State of Washington, ranges himself with President Cleveland and in fav or of the lepeal of the Sherman silver purchase act. He says "no time should be lost" in repealing the meas ure. Senator Squire has recently been classed against the repeal. New York Press : A bevy of prct ty girls at the beach were making Impressions In the sand with their feet and measuring them to sec which had the smallest foot. While thus engaged a bright girl, the daughter of a politician, with a laugh said : "This is far from interesting. What we neea girls, is men, not measures." , It is learned at the Pension office that on the 14th Inst., 2,5C0 pension era were suspended up to that date under the, ruling requiring benefit1 arles of the act of, June, 180, to prove total disability, where they are draw ing pensions of $12 per month. These are not confined to any particular lo cal ity , but are distributed tli rough out the country. No pensioner has yet been dropped under the decision of the treasury, as tho sixty days allow ed to make showings of total disabili ty have not yet elapsed. : Rev. P. T. Hai-e, D. D., pastor South Side Baptist Church, Birming ham, and Rev. W. A. Whittle, start from Birmingham, Ala., August 1st for the World's Fair, Niagara Fulls, Toronto, Washington City, Mount Vernon, etc., to be gone 10 days. The party will be select, travel in Pull man cars, stop at first-class hotels huve an experienced guide, and the trip will cost 1125. Much of the wor ry of travel Is obviated, as all details have been arranged. This is esneel ally au'opnortunity for men who can not go to send member of their (am Htitt for health and pleasure. IMMIGRATION. For the past year there has been an unusual activity in this State relative to tlie securing of a suitable class of immigration. Our people arc being fast aroused to the necessity of induc ing more people to come heret we need them to help develop our coun try, and know that they are ready to come and will gladly come if only ex tended tin proper invitation and have spread before them the peculiar advantages possessed by this favored section. In North Mississippi, especially, we And active, systematic efforts are being inndo to have northerners to locate. The Mobile and Ohio rail road has taken the lead in the matter and has run a number of excursions of homc-seekcrs7 stopping at the im portant tiwns along its! line in this State. .The Illinois Central, too, is carrying out this plan, and the sub ject of immigration Is generally in teresting tho people of Mississippi. No State in the Union can offer su perior advantages, all conditions con sidered, than Mississippi, and if these advantages were properly and sys tematically advertised in the North largo numbers of tho better class of immigration could be secured each year. There 'is no estimating the amount of Ignorance tho world at large possesses of the capabilities and resources of this State. It is indeed unrortunatcthat the State"s stores of wealth have been so imperfectly shown at tho various expositions that have been held during the last few years. At the World's Fair to-day our State's exhibits are, comparative ly, nothing. Strangers, if they ap preciate tho fact that the resources of the State are not shown fully, do not lose sight of the idea that the absence of such exhibits Is due to noti progrcssiveness of our people and an apathy that possibly exists regarding a desire to have Immigration. It lias a bad effect, and it calls for a united and earnest effort to correct It. We should not beg immigration, nor take just any class and condition of men, but spend money liberally in adver tising our State, so that the better class when knowing and appreciating the favors of this section, will bo only too glad to accept our invitations. A thrifty, highly respectable class of immigration is the one thing need ful in tills State. On the Coast we are also lagging behind ; we arc fav ored not only in climate, but the riches of earth, sea and air. We need only more people to develop this sec tion Into a veritable fairy-land the garden spot of the earth. COUNTY PRINTING. The Press Convention at Natchez last May,unanimously adopted the fol lowing resolution : Resolved, Thai it is the sense of tho Press A-wocintioa of Mississippi tuut all printing re quired by the State ami by comilv ul mu nicipal officers should be dune within the lim its of the Stnte. It was ordered that the above reso lution be reproduced in all the pa pers of the State, and marked copies of same be sent to the several county and municipal officers. Let every pa per in the State copy. -Clarion-Ledger. If the above resolution were repro duced till doomsday, we doubt that it would pay for tho ink used upon it. rhc officers know that the printing should be given to homo offices and that the same is desired, yet too ma ny forget their duty to home Inter ests and yield to the oily-tongued rep resentatives of foreign concerns every time they come around. " As a gener al thing the manner in which the country newspapers are treated by those who are recipients of the cdi tors' favors, is an outrage on Justice and neighborly courtesy. Whitwohtii Female College and Conservatory of Music and Art, at Brookhaven, Miss., stands in the very front rank of Southern institutions of learning. With its handsome brick buildings, beautiful situation and remarkably healthful surround ngs it Is admirably adapted for a homo. Add to these every advantage that money can procure or ambition suggest for the higher education of young ladies, and it becomes a school most desirable for them. See adver tisement in another column. Over one-half the State naners arc being "taken In" on thcndverlsement of the Leavenworth Business College. rror." vantieroerg lias long been posted as a dcadbcat in advertising matters. Brandon News. The Democrat-Star is not of that number. We received the advertise ment with request to publish, but the cash was required, and as it did not come, the request was not complied with. This is the way we treat all advertisers abroad riot known to us. The Stone Female College, nt Meri dian, formerly the Shuqualak Female College, has an advertisement In this issue. This -institution, In Its new quarters, offers superior advantages for the Instrtwtlon of young ladies, and is one that we enn heartily com mend as eminently worthy of full con sideration by thoso who have daugh ter to educate. See advertisement. Last Friday at Mississippi City a small cat-rigged boat, about 20ft. long drifted in with the tide at Mississip pi City. Who it belongs to 1 not known, and nothing was found bnt a black straw hat. The Mississippi Press has arranged for Its excursion to the World's Fair, to start August 2lst. We hope many will go nnd enjoy a grand trip In see ing the sights. . TnE County Teachers' Institute will begin at the Court House August "ith. See advertisement elsewhere. The Habile Kr glutrr la Trouble, The Mobile" Register Publishing Company made an assignment Tues day to Jas. Mi-Phillips., The paper Is in Its "3rd year, but has for years been heavily loaded with an indebtedness growing out of a law suit for possess ion of the paper a number of years ago. Tho late financial . depression has made it impossible for the paper to meet t lie heavy interest on the debt, and further sacrifices were not considered advisable under existing conditions. The publication willcou- tinned for the present under the au thority of tho Chancery Court, and it cannot bo doubted that the old land mark will be allowed to die, but that it will fall into hands that will con tinue its publication on the same high plaue that has marked its long and honored existence. The stringency of the times Is hard on the newspapeis as well as other classes of business, and when papers so long established as the Register ure so seriously embarrassed, it Is significant of trouble ahead for the lesser lights.

Sheriff Dohlan, of Mobile, has added another gem to his official crown by the capture of Ryan und Dease, the murderers of Deputy Sher iff J. W.Thomas. The capture was made Saturday night 17 miles south east of Waynesboro, Miss., after hours of weary marches through a rough country. The reward of $250 was se cured by 1). R. Coaker, of Greene county, who was a member of the posse and did the capturing. Pease exonerates Ryan nnd claims ho killed Thomas in self-defense. The energy and skill displayed by the sheriff In making this capture Is worthy of the highest commendation.
