A Tribute to Southern Roads.

A well known railroad official in
discussing yesterday with a News
representative the prestige of the
newly appointed general manager
of the Kansas City, Pittsburg q
Cult railway, Mr.. ], A, Edison, had
the following to say:
"The confidence reposed by north
ern and eastern capitalists in the
ronds of the south was brought to
my attention in very pointed man
ner not very long ago. | was in
Middletown, Connecticut, at the
time in question, and had occasion
to frequent one of the largest bank
ing institutions of that city. Learn
ing that was from Texas the pres
ident, whom | had not seen in some
time, gave me a cordial greeting
and piled me with questions about
the railroads and the railroad men
of that state. Incidentally he made
inquiry about Mr.. Edison, who was
then at the head of the Cotton Belt
staff in Texas.
There is a man, said the bank
president, who will make his mark
in the railway world. He has the
stuff out of which success is made.
He is brimful of resources. His pa
tience is inexhaustible. His capac-
ity for details is tremendous. What.
ever that man undertakes will be
done if he has to move heaven and
earth to do it. So grert is my con-
idence in that mans ability to keep
the road in trim that | have decided
to give preference to Cotton Belt
securities over other securities.
Such an expression from Con-
necticut banker is splendid tribute
to the stability of railroads IN this
part of the country, and shows that
eastern capitalists know a good
thing when they see it down here,
even if it is removed thousands of
miles from their base of opera
tions, Dallas News.
We don't very often pin much
stress on what Connecticut bank
er says, but this time we stand with
him in regard to his subject matter,
and can say we are with a Con-
necticut citizen one time in life.
The men who have worked under
Mr.. Edison for a long number of
years are his most ardent admirers,
and where you find this you will find
the officer good humane man, and
one who can get service out of his
men.

The Little Rock Gazette thus
speaks Of the outlook for settling
the coal miners strike in western
Arkansas Operators say the coal
strike in western Arkansas rs prac-
tically ended, in so far as they are
concerned. Mine 50 at Huntington
is running with a full force of 1O2
men, and preparations are being
made to start up 81, the new mine.
The striking miners will be com.
PEELED to vacate the cOmpany's

miners employed There is no
change in the situation at Jenny

strikers are getting in out of the
vet. Friday ll2 of them returned
to work, and their number was aug
mented by u men, imported from
Tennessee. Thirty.fve importatious
we're expected Monday. The Bo
nanza mines started up with non
union miners, and it is confidently
expected that the old miners will
furnish enough men to make up the
complement needed.

OUR NEW CITY DIRECTORY.
It is Work OF Merit snd Reflects
Credit Upon the Compiler
and Publisher Alike.

Texarkaua has a new city direc-
tory and the man at our elbow who
is slapgy or nothing, as we write
this, remarks that the work is a
"beaut' aud therefore a Joy fOrev-
er, or until the city feels in need of
new one. Mr.. A, H. Woods the
compiler, and his assistants came
here some time ago, and interested
our people IN having a new directo-
ry, and when they found they had
worked up an interest sufficient to
make it pay, went to work on the
book, aud now a copy of the finished
work is before US.
We find that the FIRST eighteen
pages, and last five pages, devoted t.
advertisements of the busine IS firms
here and elsewhere.
The next u pages are devoted to
a miscellaneous number of subjects
which includes list of churches,
courts, banks, schools, secret or
ders, and the names of the officers
of our city government.
The body of the book contains,
alphabetically arranged, the names
all people grown of both sexes) en-
gagged in business, and the list nu
mericaIly, carries 5,555 names
Using the multiplier adopted by
all directory men, will give our city
a population of IS O54
The book is splendidly printed, on
good paper, and was printed by the
Arkansas Democrat Co., at Little
Rock.
Mr.. Wood, the compiler, has given
the city good, neat job, and need
not fear to return mere to engage
in a republication of the work, when
our growth demands a new one.
We are pleased with our copy,
and we have heard no complaint on
the outside of inaccuracies, so far.

Deafness Cannot be Cured.

by local applications, as they cannotrea h
the diseased portion Of the ear, There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inhamed condition Of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets inhamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an infamed condition of the mucous sur
faces
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of deafness Caused by catarrh
