last for hours with little interruption

TUESDAY NIGHTS CONCERT.

The musical entertainment
given in the Messenger Opera
House Tuesday night by a com
plement of home talent and Mr..
Ralph Fisher, for the benefit of
the latter, who is blind and is
seeking the means to pursue his
musical studies in Germany, was
sparcely patronized but was
highly meritorious and deserved
a crowded house-not alone for
the merit of the entertainment
itself, but for the yet more laud-
able and philanthropic purpose
for which it was given.
AS a pianist Mr.. Fisher is a
marvel of artistic touch and per
feet execution, giving such ex-
preston to every note as to
mark him a genius indeed.
The vocal renditions Of Misses
Sue Borden, Mary Miller, Char
lotte Edwards and Lena Hud-
gins, as also of Messrs. Fry and
Leyister were fully enjoyed,
while the recitations of little
Miss Estelle Edwards carried the
audience by storm.

Southern Railway Co.

WASHINGTON. Dec. IA
delegation representing the en-
ployes of the Southern Railway
Company had a conference in
Washington to-day with the
chiefs of the various railway
trainmen's unions-Chief Arthur,
of the Locomotive Engineers,
Chief Wilson, of the Firemen's,
Chief Brown, Of the Trainmen's
and Chief Clark, of the Conduc-
tors. The meeting was the out
growth of a reduction in salaries
made by the receivers of the
Richmond and Danville Railroad
Company prior to the reorganiz-
alton under the name of the
Southern Railroad. Unlike the
usual custom of paying salaries
in accordance with the rates
fixed by the railroad companies,
the Richmond and Danville road
made an agreement with en-
ployes as to the wages to be paid
and a formal contract was made.
When the receivers reduced all
salaries, the trainmen accepted
the cut, realizing that it Was nee
essary on account of the tinan-
cial condition of the road. The
reorganization, however, caused
a demand on their part that the
contract with the r. & D. should
be kept by a restoration of the
old order of things, but a repeti-
ton of the demand has not been
successful, and the conference
Which began to-day was decided
on to devise means for dealing
with the matter.
To-day's session was brief.
Absolute secrecy was enjoined on
all who participated, and moth
ing was given out for publica.
ton. Chief Arthur, when ques-
toned by a Southern Associated
Press reporter, was very reti
cent, but after some pressing he
said;
There was nothing whatever
done. We merely had q friendly
chat over the business which
brings us here"
This seems to be the status o.
affairs. Tomorrow morning al
9 o'clock the most important con
ference will be held and it is ex
pected that definite action viii
be taken. The representatives
of the men whose salaries were
reduced are apparently in favol
of going to the extreme of {
strike.
ACCORDING to the Annua
Railway Record, compiled il
Germany, America has 218, 81
miles of railroad, or 81, 900 mil,
more than all the other countries
of the world combined. Europ,
has IA, $50, Germany havin:
the largest mileage. France com
ing next and Spain having tn,
smallest mileage of any Euro
pean country. In all of Ash
there are but 90, 219 miles. AT
RIGA has 1912 miles and Aus
tra1ia IL, 685 miles. The averag,
cost per mile of the entir
worlds mileage has been 1921,
260. The roads in the Unite
States have cost ten and one
third billions of dollars; or a
leverage of $50, 298 per mile.

OUR good friend Mr.. Josiah
Sutton, d sterling Democrat of

On the great race of progress
in which we hope to g every
part Of this country victorious,
the South las undoubtly the
lead. It has the best climate in
any season that is TO be found on
this continent. 1t has a greater
variety Of resources and products
than any other region on earth.
Its domestic government is the
most secure that can be found.
There is no opening for honest
endeavOr and genuine enterprise
on the face of the earth compar-
able to that which the South at
fords, and especially North Car
