The life of the Tribune, the new
republican paper recently started
in Memphis, was short and full Of
trouble. In one weeks time that
gigantic enterprise and savior of
the republican party has passed
under the rod" When the time
arrived TO pay off the printers Sat
urday afternoon, as is customary
in oi4Y Offices, the manager gave
them checks on the bank for their
respective amounts. Banking hours
we're over, but some of the printers
were fortunate enough TO get their
friends to cash the checks. On
Monday morning when the bank
opened, the checks were presented
to be cashed, whereupon the hold
ers of the same were informed that
there was no deposit. The manager
of the Tribune now looks through
iron bars.

Mr.. Matthias Doll, business place No.

profession in New Orleans, and though

about one dollar per bale and erect
a bagging factory Of their own.

a New Railrnad.

We have been shown by Col.
Clifton Dancy map Of a proposed
railroad between this place and Dy-
ersburg. The route of the proposed
road is a very level one, and it could
be constructed at a minimum cost.
We do not know how great a pros
pect we have of getting the road,
but we are in favor oft. We know
nothing in the shape of q railroad
that we are not in favor of. We
do not consider a read in that d.
rection, however, to be so desirable
as one to the coal fields of Alabama.
What Jackson wants and must have
if she expects TO become a great
manufacturing center is cheap coal.
Already the cost of coal has been
reduced by the construction OF the
Midland road to such an extent
that the saving to the citizens of
jackson on that one itel6 alone will
pay the entire interest on the Md
land railroad bonds. The saving
ON each ton of coal is at least 80
cents. The interest on the Mid
land bonds amounts to $500. Eff
teen thousand tons of coal is q low
estimate tor the citY's consumption.
Fifty cents per ton on 10 900 tons
amounts to 81, 500. But if by tap
ping the coal fields we can still
greatly reduce the price of coal the
great problem of cheap fuel has
been sOlved-Times.

Steamer Aground.

New YORK, Oct. 10.-The 1nman line
steamer City of New York is still
aground in the lower bay and eleven gs
have been sent to her assistance. Her
passengers are being taken off. 1t is
feared that she is sinking in quick sand.
The report was that the big steamer
had grounded in the channel last night,
hut this was mistake. She lies hard
and fast a little east by ST.. The com
pany this morning expected to get her
afloat at 8 o'clock this afternoon. One OF
the big tugs which went to her assistance
returned to quarantine before noon and
reported that all previous efforts to float
the racer had been unayaillng. Ihls lug
did not confirm the report that the steam
er was sinking in quick sand but brought
news of considerable excitement existing
among the passengers on board. Inc
steamer carried 500 hundred first cabin
passengers and 1,7OO second cabin pas
senqers. The steerage contained huno-
reds of others. Among the first
cabin passengers is Wilcox Barret, the
English tragedian.
The tugs abandoned their endeavors to "a

for high water tonight to get her Off.

From Chicago to Tampa, Fla,

A route of travel has been projected by
number of western business men which
will connect Aspinwall directly with Chi
cago, by way of Tampa, Fla. If line
were to be drawn through Tampa from
Chicago to Aspinwall, it would be almost
straight, and it's length would be 1900
miles. At present goods from Cuba, the
West Indies and Central America for
Chicago are shipped by way of New
York, sometimes going to Europe first,
and sometimes being shipped from AS
pinwall to New York. The distance
from Aspinwall to Chicago via New York
is $500 miles.
1t is thousand miles by direct rail
route from Chicago to Tampa. When
the railway is constructed, steamers
from the West Indies, Cuba, ETC., will
bring goods to Tampa, which can then
be shipped direct. Beyond doubt Tam
pa has fair future as seaport.

The Great Butte Copper Company to Built
Extensive Works at Great Falls.


Extensive Works at Great Falls.
Herald: 1t is reliably reported that
the Boston and Montana Consolidated
Mining Company of Butte have complet-
ed negotiations for the erection of their
projected smelling works on the Missouri
river near Great Falls. The site chosen
is at the Rainbow falls, where an abund-
ant water power can be obtained. The
works will be very extensive and the plant
will be one of the largest and best
equipped in Montana. Work on the
dam in the Missouri river will be-
gin at once under the direction of
Mr.. Tanning, hydraulic engineer, and it
is expected this part of the great under
taking will be finished next August. The
dam alone will cost $500,0O0. The works
will include both smelter and refinery
and will be large enough to treat the full
output of the Boston & Montana COM
pany's mines, which now produce about
24,000,O00 pounds of copper per year.
The reason for locating the works SO far
away from the mines is on ac cunt of the
abundance of water available near Great
Falls, the like of which could not be Oh
tanned near Butte.

Country Roads.

The first thing that strikes the AIneri-
can travelling through the country in
Europe is the excellent roads. The next
feature that impresses him, if his jour
ney is in the summer, is the absence Of
weeds You may travel from one end of
Holland or Belgium, in particular. and
scarcely see weed.
He is apt to come back disguised with
his own country in this respect. Our
highways certainly are disgrace to a
great and rich nation like ours. The
ruts, the mud puddles, with huge stone
at the bottom that breaks the axle of the
wagon that goes wallowing through the
mire to market or to meeting-behold,
these are things too familiar. And our
ancestors-heaven save their souls-if
they needed hill road, laid it out straight
up the backbone of the elevation, with
out thought Of winding gently around
the side of it. Generally the road re-
mains to this day just as they left it.
Our farmers are well to do and very
intelligent. They ought now to take the
improvement of American roads serious
ly in hand. There are books and road
makers that will show them how to
compass the improvement. In localities
where there are stone and gravel, what
so good as the turnpike, with its ditch
each side, its grass bordering of living
green. from which the thrifty farmer
keeps every weed cut? If he has an eye
to the beautiful he also plants trees along
the way to gladden. the traveller. So it is
done in Europe. In regions where there
is no stone there are other we'll known
ways of making good roads.

1t is the intention of a number of
sugar planters to establish in Louisiana
mills where the cane product can be made
into the manufactured article on the
spot. They say that mill in Louisiana
can pay 81 a ton for cane and still turn
it into sugar at profit which will pay
for the mill in three years. They ask
northern capital which is seeking invest
ment to look into the sugar mill prospect
in Louisiana. The time will surely come
when the United States itself will pro-
duce all the sugar required for home
