Obituary..

Miss Florence Hill, deceased daugL-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. E. F. Hill, 218
Fourth street, was native of Mari
eta, although the greater part of her
active life vas spent in New York
City. At her death she had just en-
tered upon the fortyeighth year of
her life. having been born March "a,
1851. Miss Hill at an early age showed
refined talent for music, the piano
being her choice. At the age of fifteen
her father took her to New York City,
where, with the exception of few
short intervals, she remained as stu
dent and teacher of music for twenty
years, being at one time principal of
the mu.ic department at Rutgers Fe-
male College, New York. During the
last ten years Miss Hill has been al
most confirmed invalid, suffering
from what her death proved it to be, a
malignant cancer. All through life
and until death she held to strong
hope in Christ, her Saviour, such as
even death :ould not disturb. Father,
mother and two sisters survive her to
cherish loving remembrances of her
pure Christian life, and also to mourn
her loss to them. The surviving sis
ters arc Mrs. S. NJ. McMillen, of Spring
field, o., and Mrs. Lewis Hamblin, of
Columbus, o. Florence had many dear
friends in Marietta to whom she be-
came thoroughly attached during her
last illness, She was laid away, by
her own request, in Oak Grove ceme-
terry.

BAD COUNTRY FOR THIEVES.
How n CuIprit Was Mercflessly
Lashed Down the Trail in
the ChilEat Pass.

Mr.. Fl. D. Annab;e, of Montreal, az
cording to the New York Sun, received
letter containing the following de-
scription of the way in which justice
is meted out in the Chilkat pass re-
gion:
This is a bad country for thief.
There were two chaps just tried here
for stealing an outfit from man on
top of the summit. They were caught
in the act and brought back to Sleeps
Head, and tried and sentenced to be
hanged. The younger Of the two, by
the name of Wellington, put gun to
his head and finished himself. The
other fellow, named Hanson, was tied
10 tree, all his clothing taken off,
and then lashed with two big ropes
fastened to a stick. The man who in
hicted the punishment was supposed to
he the ablest man in the camp. was
close to the affair; 80 close, in fact,
that had to hold my face back to
keep clear of the ropes while he was
swinging them. 1t was handbook
ing sight. After they had done this,
they painted him with the words Thief.
Pass him along and then started him
down the trail.
"IIe had been examined by doctor
before the punishment, and they
whipped him until the doctor signalled
for them to stop. In almost every
place the ropes struck him they drew
| blood. When man is caught stealing
up here they call miners meeting,
and whatever they agree TO do they
carry it out"

The South as a Stock Country.

A Western man, who is well ac-
quainted with the stock conditions
In Wyoming, Montana, and other
Western States, writes that he has
heard much talk and inquiry of
late regarding Virginia as a sheep
country, and intimates that sheep
men from the West will investi-
gate sheep-raising IN the Old Do
minion.
In discussing the present status
of the cattle business, he said that
Montana cattlemcn have depended
upon New Mexico, Arizona and
Texas, but these breeding regions
are no longer available. Many
herdsmen are going out Of the
business or running reduced herds,
This decline in the business in the
West, which is evident from the
heavy demand for cattle from the
South for Western markets during
the past six or eight months, with
the West forced to look to Iennes-
see, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia
and even to the Carolinas for a
portion Of It's supply of cattle
there, is the strongest proof of
the advantages of the South for
stock-raising. Cheap farming
lands, mild climate, the best grass
country and other things combine
to make cattle and sheep-raising
in the South successful. Western
stockmen will find it profitable to
locate in the South. Southern
farmers should pay more attention
to stock. There are many regions
along the line of the Southern
Railway where there are special
for stock-raising.

lime after time planters of Wash

SMALL FARMING AND RAILROADS.

Grlevous complaint is registered
annually by the Southern small
farmer against unjust and exorbi-
tant charges of railroads for carry
ing his products to mar ket. He
finds sufficient charges when crops
have been ordinarily good to pre-
vent him from edng out more
than a small margin of profit, but
when season of promised high
prices for his products looms into
view the railroad authorities are
the first to discover the fact, and a
largely increased freight rate is
the immediate outcome. This
manifest injustice, for which there
seems so far to be no means of re-
dsess, makes the railroads dicta-
tors of the margin of gain and de-
stroys the commercial laws of sup
ply and demand. The fact that
cotton is not subject to like dis
examinations has worked doubly
against the encouragement of re-
ducing its production in favor OF
more by-products. 1t is plain that
these conditions have served as q
general and vital hindrance to the
improvement of Southern agricul-
ture. Cotton Planters Journal.
The justice of the above com
plant will be at once recognized

DAY DA WN IN THE EAST.

The commercial I'pehlhg ol lh'
far East is fraught witt. deep mean
ing to the South, especially to the
cotton industry. Heretofore thle1
consumers of our main produces
have been the nations of Europe,
a limited quantity reaching China
and the East by incredibly circuit
Gus routes, the principal one be-
ing shipment across the tremen-
dous expanse of Canada and the
Northern Pacific ocean to Japan
The inevitable result of the pres
ent war will be o close business
rapport between this country and
the eastern coasts of Asia, Such
a m.rke, as will there be opened
will solve tie problem of over
production effectu.s.uy, by proyid=
ing demand for Amer H.eah cotton
which our present product WI DC
inadequate to supply. The couh-
tries now being opened to us CON
tain a population of more than
500, 100000 the greater part of
which use cotton exclusively rs
clothing material. The possibili-
ties presented are almost infinite.
The present supply of cotton
goods in use in China is drawn
principally from India and Egypt,
together with great quantities
manufactured in England from
raw material grown in this coun-
try. The Chinese coast country
is rapidly awakening to active
commercial life as the virility of
European influence is infused into
it. Already mills are being con
structed and the manufacture OF
cotton is becoming leading in
dustry, Our great customer for
the raw product will be the mar
veIlously progressive japanese ma
tion-the yankees of the Orient
already the rival of England on
the Pacific. In the control of this
new market we must contend for
supremacy with India, Egypt, and
China-the two former urged by
the unsleeping activity and une-
qualIed commercial shrewdness of
Under present condl-
tions these countries have an un-
questionable advantage, by reason
of more direct and shorter commu-
both overland and by sea.
The present war, the probable
of the Philippine and
islands in the Pacific,
and the establishment of varied
national interests in that distant
region, renders The construction
of the Nicaragua canal a work OF
necessity. 1t has long
been considered as project for
The advantage of commerce, but it
has now become one of the respon-
,ibilities and heritages of the war.
Not only do commercial interests
demand it, but the expansion and
development of the nation make it
| necessity and matter of self
protection. Direct shipping facil-
ties by comparatively short
quite from gulf sea ports to the
,reat eastern market mean de-
of the cotton industry
nd an increase in southern pros
'erity which will dwarf all the at
ailments of the past.
