Water Works Improvement.

The Columbia Water & Light
Co. are making some good improve
ments IN their plant. Contracts
have been made with the railroad
company to put in tank at the
depot, and the water will be sup
piled from a smaller pipe, in order
that the pressure may not be
weakened at other points on that
main. This is much needed i'm
provement, as in many instances,
when engines are taking water at the
depot, the supply from fire plugs
and hydrants on the same main is
materially reduced and sometimes
entirely, cut off. A new plug has
also been put in at the Atheneum,
which will protect the properties of
the Athen@um and Institute. The
work on the new suction pipe, which
will be run above Helms branch,
has been somewhat retarded on
account of the recent rains, as the
pipe is being laid in the river bed.
Superintendent Moore, however,
thinks he will, have the work
! finished in about two weeks.

MAURY COUNTY CROPS.
Wheat Selling at 80 Cents and still
Looking Upward.


Looking Upward.
Up, up, up goes the price of wheat
and with it the spirits of the far
mers. The market price in Column
bia yesterday was 80 cents per
bushel, and, what's better, the ten
dency is still upward. Many are
holding their grain in hopes that
they will get 81 a bushel for it,
which, at the present outlook, is a
happy probability.
Providence has certainly smiled
upon the people of Maury County
this year Just when the corn and
other vegetation were whitening
beneath the scorching rays of old
Sol, and the farmers were praying
for rain, the drouth was broken,
and the corn crop, which seemed
hopelessly lost, now gives prospects
for a good yield, and the late hay
and pastures are green and
luXuriant.

WINE INDUS
TRY.

The first bill introduced
in the senate Monday was
one to regulate the native
wine industry in Arkansas.
1t is a shame that such
issues as this should be
forced upon the legislature
and supplant questions
which concern the welfare
of the whole people. No
doubt that there are enough
members in both houses
who prefer legislation on
the liquor question to that
of a railroad commission or
the improvement of our
public highways. Whiskey
seems to dominate the
minds of a large number of
this Legislature, to the de-
triment of the people. This
proposition to protect the
wine industry is a delusion,
Arkansas is not a grape
state. She cannot compete
with other sections in the
production of the grape, ard
never can. A brief glance
at her climatic conditions
and a knowledge of the re-
quirement of such conditions
to grow the grape, will
convince the thoughtful
and honest seeker after
truth that it is not and can
lever be made a successful
wine producing state. We
need legislation to develop
the resources of Arkansas
but we do not need this
industry developed even if
the state was more favor.
ably adapted to grape cul-
ture. This wine industry
is an institution to produce
drunkards rather than
develop our higest interests.
