BiLoxrs MISFORTUNE,

In all ages from Jlme lmmemo-
rial it has been the object of man
to better his condition, to adj
vance his civilization and obey the
impulses of the word progress"
No where in history can it be
found where a people deliberately
disregarded usuages and inven-
tions which would prove instru-
mental in extenuating adverse
environments, or crushing a
thought which would elevate
their intellect to a higher plane.
To illustrate our argument we
will cite few instances: Trace the
evolution of the gun, only few
years ago the flint lock was in use,
but would we change the breech-
loader of to-day for that mode of
firearm? compare the rude dug
out of our forefathers to the
great ocean steamer that connects
the two hemispheres; drink in
the harsh sounds (music) of the
tom-tom, and then listen to an in
spring opera which reverberates
in ones soul until the realms of
beauty, fancy and flower seem to
float about you.
Is it necessary to ask if ra-
tional people would voluntarily
and deliberately obliterate these
things which have taken centu-
ries of toll and cultivation to i'm
prove and return to primitive GUS
toms of savagery? Progress, in
its onward march, would open
wide its mouth and stare incred-
ulously were some one to shrek
out: Eyes, take away your ocean
steamer, and give back to me my
dug out!" And yet this is exact
ly what Biloxi is doing to-day!
1t is abusing the laws of enter
prise, it is blaspheming against
the fixed laws of progress. Were
the world possessed with spirit
of enterprise, or an interpreta-
tion of evolution as is Biloxi the
word progress would become
meaningless and would soon be
relegated to the tranqoil grave of
oblivion. The ignorant and un-
knowing may misinterpret our at
tack on Biloxi's street car system,
but for these we have no words
our articles are directed to the
cultured class, and they, we hope,
will understand our meaning.
Should the mule car be pro-
posed in Bay st. Louis we would
fight it as bitterly and strenuous
ly as we knew how, and the tracks
would only be laid under torrents
of censure and disapproval. BIZ
loxi is not in itself and by itself
apart from the world. il belonps
to the Gulf coasti and what af-
fects one town will likewise affect
the others. We cannot but hope,
that for the sake of Biloxi and of
the coast, the mule will at an
early day be supplanted by cleo
trio power.

The assessor of Harrison coun-
ty, whose name we cannot remem-
Der just now, we are told has
printed a list of appointments,
telling the property owners to
meet him at such places and time
designated to give the informa-
ton which the county pays him
to seek. There is much doubt as
to the legality of such departure
from the regular way of assessing.

The present size of The Echo
is not through lack of enterprise
on the part of the publisers but
by reason of an inappreciative
public. The present size is plenty
large enough to give the public a
leading and genuine good newspa-
paper-one that is not afraid to
talk and say what it thinks.

Eagle Baseball Notes.

Not one Of the three leading league
batters is large man.
The Phillies are after Tom Colcol-
Tough, late Of Pittsburg.
The Bostons will carry five pitchers
on the next western trip.
Tommy Tucker of Boston is with the
leaders as a first baseman.
Captain Comisky is looking for an out
fielder for his st. Paul team.
McMahan will resume his place on
the Baltimore team within ten days.
Pitcher Hemming Of the same club is
i'll.
Since he has been called down Lath-
ANS work has improved wonderfully
Too bad that it is necessary to prod
him.
The Pittsburgs will return home
bruised in body and spirit Next week
Cleveland will shy few bricks into
their alley.
1t is claimed that Billy Merritt has
played with more league clubs in a
shorter period than any man in the
profession.
Jimmy Bannon has fallen off greatly
in his batting. He is now below tie 400
mark, but still leads the Bostons in
stick work.
President Freedman is giving two
men salary to travel to all minor league
cities and capture players for the New
Yorks. So far the lasso has not fall
len.
Pitcher Ehret, whom st. Louis receiv-
ed in exchange for Hawley, rs won but
two games this season. He has lost ten
and was knocked out of the box three
times.
If Cleveland doesn't win the penant
it will give some of those other clubs
an awful hot race for it, is the opinion
of Left Fielder Clarke, of the Louis
villes.
Rochester was given game at
Springfield, in the eastern league, re-
Gently because the supply of balls was
exhausted, the last being cut by one Of
the Raws.
The Phillies have lots Of trouble with
their young pitcher talent First
Beam was farmed out and Smith play
ed. Then Beam was recalled and
Smith loaned. Now Smith is to be re-
called. What neXt-a double release?
