From time to time since then the pa

The Gateway of the Orient.

1t was, believe, Fromentin, the
eminent French scholar and art
critic, who remarked that the sud
den view of the orient through the
gateway Of FL Kantara presented the
most contrasting picture of life and
nature that was to be found any
where on the surface of the earth.
How nearly true this statement may
be it is hardly possible to determine,
but it is certain that it would be dif'
ficult to find elsewhere on the globe
a more striking closing of one world
and opening OF another. Through
El-Kantara passes the solemn tread
of the camel trains, whose destlna'
ton is the silent Sahara and tht
deeper Sudan. In it are offered NJ

There is a great prevalence of left

ticularly noticeable in the way the
citizens Of that metropolis enter a

THE BLACK DIAMOND.

The indications are that the
Black Diamond railroad will be
built. When the promoters OF
the road first visited our town and
county to lay before the people
the advisability of securing this
great throughfare, the ADVOCATE
gave much space setting fourth
the importance of the line, the
great resources to be developed
along the proposed route and the
advantages to be realized by our
business men and farmers. Sew
eral gentlemen visited our city
and made speeches and talked
privately endeavoring to enlist the
cooperation Of this county. Some
weeks were spent in this effort,
which appeared to be almost fruit
less.
Our people would not accept
