scendants of the men and women who
came owe In the Mayfower" has not
yet been exploded, Is recent comments
indicate. AS a matter of fact, the old
Boston families were not OF the May
flower party. Most Of them came from
Suffolk with Winthrop, and settled,
first at Salem. then at Boston, eight
and ten years after the Plymouth col
ony had been founded. Yet the May
flower legend is still vigorous, like
some other legends that pass as his
tory.

Movement For Better Leyees.

Mir. Frank II. Tompkins. the special representative of the Interstate Mssis. sippi River Improvement and Leyee Asso- citation, is in the city.
 It will be remembered that this associa. ton was formed while the flood of 1890 was at its highest pomt. A call was issued for a convention of riparian owners and overflow sufferers to meet al Nlcksburg to consider what should be done to secure immunity from these re- curing floods. The convention was largely attended, and permanent organ ization was effected under the above name, with Charles Scott, of Rosedale. Miss, one of the ablest and most public spirited men of the valley as president.
 This association has been an active and virlie factor in leyee legislation ever since. It has labored unceasingly to ad vance the levee sentiment of the country and to induce Congress to assume the ie. sponsiblity and financial obligations te those who dwell behind the levees of the Mississippi river.
 Mr. Tompkins talked entertainingly oi his trip down the whole length of tlt river to Times-Democrat reporter.

portanee Of ma&iag this market stable and increasing it's demands They realize that there is capability of trade development right here in this valley larger than our whole present trade with the Latin Ameri- can states Tue correspondence. printed m the Times Democrat last week which showed where ore letter from Green vile, lMiss. merchant called forth a strong petition and appeal from the Phila. deiphia Shoe and Leather Exchange to every member of congress from the great State of Pennsy iYania is but sample of many.
 These expressions have been infinite in variety, often amusing in detail, but always warm. generous and cordial.
 One firm wrote that it was an outrage that the United States had not leveed the Mississippi long ago; that if Holland could keep out the whole Atlantic ocean the United States could certainly control the
 Mississippi river. Another-a large grain and hay incorporated firm Of Kansas City generously wrote that they had about 2000 sp0ndents in Ina western couB- try, and that they would take the matter up with all of them and get them to write to their members of congress.
 "The valley representatives are prepar- ing to make gallant fight to pass the bill
 which Gen. Catchings has repared p'ac- ing the responsibility of perfccting and maintaining the ieyee system on the more capaclous shoulders of Uncle Sam. The people of the Mississippi valley have taxed themselves almost bey ond en- durance 10 build up ths levee system, and the opening up of new lands. the deforesl- | ing ot the North and Northwest. the ditch | ing and drainage of vast territories. the l improvement of channels. etc, all cause | the more rapid rnsh of waters down the

 ''ls is plain proposition in law that you are responsible tO your neighbor for
 damages caused by turning your drainage

When we rnsder that there are over II coo. 0eO irres or aliuyai nber lands along the dississiipi river almost in is primeyai condition. we GU ekiy realize the vast possibilities of de Teopment.

Even the front of the St. Francis basin is nearly halt leYGed. The evees mp there do not require .he height of the vast earth dikes, along, say, the Pointe COupee front. They sink ln t0 potato ridges almost when com
 pared to these. Therefore, while these counties have scarcely 10 per cent de-
 velOpnent they are nevertheless rapidly 'osing their fl ont"
 But what fleet will the closing of this last remaining basin have on the lower country?" was asked.
 Wholly good, 1 think; wholly good; in Tact many peep 1 begin to think large | majority, believe that this same St. Fran | cts basin Is the cause of all our undoing. on see wlNu the river gets to the thirty | four foot stage at Memphis these bottoms | begin to fill up. This delays somewhat | he general movement toward the Gulf
 ot the main sti cam by checking it's cur rent. Anyhow they serve no purpose of
 protection. as this stage of water in itself l no great menace to the levees below | But, by holding and sending the water | down t0 meet q second rise of the river 1t
 generally ovtrwhelms the Mississippi | front about the mouth of the Arkansas | rlver, as was the case this year. Then
 the rush of waters down the Yazoo re- | .'eats the pc formance on the Louisiana | front This forms a menace in turn to
 the POinte Goupee front below the mouth | ai Red river. The latter levees held in-
 tact this year owing to their great strength
 and height and the dispersion of waters
 down the Atchafalaya.
 With the leveeng of the St. Francis | front will come some reasonably accurate | calculation as to what leYee protection is
 needed for absolute safety. and thIs can
 be met and solved to a certainty One | thing that makes this view of the matter seem pla usibe or even correct is that the | carrying capacity Of the channel in the upper river is relatively no greater thau
 in the lower river. and that the presnmp-
 ton is that no overflow there would mean
 no overflow here-that the first waters would pass away to the gulf before the
 second and third crests come down."
 1 Your association has other plans be
 sides the gathering of these statistics?" l "Yes; realizing that in union there is
 strength, the association is asking the | business men Of the valley to appeal to the great commercial interests throughout
 the whole country that have their mar
 kets in this productive valley to help the
 cause along by writing to their members
 of congress in behalf of the people who
 live behind the leyees. This is having
 wonderful results. The replies which
 have come back to the writers have been
 most gratifying and demonstrate beyond
 doubt that the business interests of the country are thoroughly aroused to the im-
