CALL FOR. A MEETING.

There will be meeting in the Elks' hall on Jan. at 7:30 p. m., St. acksons Day. The committee hopes there will be a full attendance, as steps will be taken to organize a Bryan club. Hon. O. w.

Ger tainly a meeting on the anniversary of our patron saints great victory over the troops of gold standard England will be cause for great rejoicing of "popocrats" if not democrats.
 N Let all men who supported MT. Bryan come and make themselves at home We hope that steps will be taken at this meeting to get all of the white people of Alabama together who supported the nominees of the Chicago convention. If mutual concessions are made we can see noIreason why it cannot be done.

AMERICA CUT IN THE COLD.
NtCARAGtN'S CONCESSION TO
BRITAIN.
But the United States May Take Steps
to Protect Its Interests in the Wa
terway.

1t is stated by persons familiar with
Nicaragua canal affairs that either the
United States or the Nicaragua Canal
company will institute an inquiry in
regard to the recent grant by Nicara-
qua to the Atlas Steamship company
"a British corporation, of exclusive
rights of navigation for the next 80
years of the San Juan river and Lake
Nicaragua. These two water ways
are said to form two of the links of
what will ultimately be the Nicaragua
canal.
The state department at Washing
ton recently received a report from
Consul O'Ilara of Nicaragua giving "A
brief detail of the concessions grant
ed to the British company, and stat
ing that it embraced various exclusive
privileges in the Silicon lagoon, the
San Juan river and Lake Nicaragua.
Since then additional information has
become available as to the plans of
the Atlas company.
The Silicon lagoon is said to be off
the route of the canal, and there APP
pears to be no reason why this should
not pass into the exclusive control OF
the British company. The eXcavating
beginning at Greytown and running
west unites with the San Juan river.
which in turn leads to Lake Nicara-
qua, after which the artificial cut is
continued to the Pacific. Under these
circumstances, it is said, that eXclu-
sive privileges of navigation in these
two waterways for the next thirty
years would in effect limit the naviga-
tiT,, Of a., " ian, canal NhAtl,n,
the concession makes any exception
in this regard is not known. as the
reports including that of Mr.. O'Hara
to the state department, merely state
that the concession is an exclusive
one.
An official familiar with Nicaraguan
canal affairs says that the concession
would have to be construed as subse-
quent to that of the canal company.
and the latter's rights in the San Juan
river and Lake Nicaragua he believed
would be fully recognized by Near
aqua. But the danger. he added, was
that when the American company's
concession expired. two years hence.
the British corporation would sue
coed under the terms of the recent
concession, to all exclusive rights of
navigation in these two links of the
canal. For this reason it was believ-
/ ed that the government or the cana,
company would take steps to learn
definitely if this exclusive privilege
/ extended to the navigation of the lake
/ and river when they become part OF
/ the inter-o"eanic canal.
Secretary Long has decided to send
/ the Newport. now in Boston. with the
/ Nicaraguan commission. The commits.
/ sion will sail about the middle of No.

The cleanest, brightest safest and really,
in the long run, the cheapest and best light
for use in the family residence, is the incan-
descent electric light. Safe; nothing could
be safer. A few days 20 prominent gem
tleman of Honolulu came rushing down to
the office of the Electric Company and said;
"Give me figures for wiring my house, and ]
want it done at once; no more lamps for me.
Last night lamp tipped over and it came
so near setting fire to the house and burning

This is the sentiment of quite a number in

houses fitted with the perfect light.
