When the man whose haircut showed

said. reports the New York Sun:

never even picturesque. Her worst in
Jury was wrought upon certain weak
women who for the time she deluded

A meeting of the Chamber of
Commerce was held last night, and
business of the utmost Importance

Florence at heart, and every ener-
gy will be bent to consummate
plans for the towns welfare.
The following members were
elected as delegates to attend the
commerce convention at Colorado
Springs tomorrow: w. 81. Davie,

ALREADY men are being at
tracted to Florence by the pros
pect of employment on the water
works system, or by the outlook
for business openings because of
the increased activity which will
result from the water proposition.
There are good things in store for
our town New opportunities will
aIise. Let us be prepared to take
advantage of them. Florence is
awakening and will arise from her
present condition of comparative
inactivity.

A FRENCH paper, La Liberte, in
an article which appeared in yes
terday's issue, argues that France
is in strong position to fight
England. 1t states that France
would not make the mistake that
Spain did in the recent war with
the United States, but would in
troduce waiting campaign that
would soon tire England out.

BISHOPS POTTER and Parker of

WHETHER it is two hundred or
three hundred millions of dollars
each year, or not, there is no doubt
but that we pay an enormous sum
annually to foreign ships for doing
our import aud export carrying.
To give Americans chance to
compete for that carrying, Senator
Hanna and Representative Payne
have united in introducing identi-
cal bills in each branch of con-
gress, which, it is believed, will be
pushed through at the present
session. The bill should be care
fully considered on its merits,
and, in the light of the fact that
more than twenty millions of
dollars are paid out 10 their mer-
chant ships annually, in one form
or another, by the governments of
Europe, if Senator Hanna's bill
meets the foreigner fairly on that
