known Mississippi Congressman, who
retires from Office with his present
term. may become an Alabama citizen.
He owns little place at Coden, In
Mobile county, given him BY his good
friend, Hon. E. L. Russell, president
of the Mobile and Ohio Railroad, and
he likes the country. TO a reporter
of the Mobile Herald, Mr.. Allen said
that he would probably build home

at that place. Incidently he remarked
that there was no truth in the fire..

EXHAUsTING PINE FORESTS

DuOAl ueral0.
There are such heavy inroads being
made on the timber supply of the
coast that 1t is estimated that IL will
be exhausted in the course of the next
fifteen years. The entire section is
honeycombed with saw mills, with
new ones constantly springing to ex.
istence at every eligible point, while
logging roads, tramways, and the like
are intersecting the country in every
direction. 1t is a regrettable fact
that the timber supply is being 50
rapidly exhausted, especially as no
efforts are being made to reforest the
localities in which the standing tim.
ber Is being exhausted, and the spots
denuded are being left bare, to grow
up In briers and bramble. The con.
tents OF the restricted timber belt OF
the coast counties has been a mine OF
wealth to them, but has never been
appreciated by our own citizens, who
permitted the lands to pass from them
at much less than their value to capi.
talists and mill men from the north
and west, who have erected hundreds
of mills and are cutting the timber
just as rapidly as their facilities will
permit.
1t is problem as to what will be-
come OF the many thrifty and pros
porous villages that have sprung up
in South Mississippi and along the
line OF the Gulf and Ship Island rail.
road especially, when the deioresta-
tion shall have been finally completed.
Nearly all Of them are wholly depcn.
dent for their very existence on the
sawmill interests and the trade they
bring to them. Without sustenance
and support from these interests the
towns would soon wither and decay,
and they would take their places in
the category of the western boom

ly as rapidly, and are now but memo.
res in the minds OF those who knew
of them in their PALMER days.
Wear not at all inclined to be pes.
simstic. but there is danger that
these now apparently prosperous little
cities that have been built in the heart
Of the pines Of Mississippi will fail
when the timber shall have been ex.
hausted, because there are no other
resources that they can draw up
on for support; the soil is too poor to
be Of much value for agricultural pur.
poses; they are surrounded with no
minerals to be mined, and really there
is nothing for them to live upon, so
far as we know. II would be to their
future interest II they had some means
for protecting their forests, or regulat.
ing the quantity of timber cut an
nually from them, but they have not
any such means at their command,
and doubtless the prediction that all
the timber will be completely exhaust.
ed within the next fifteen or twenty
years is correct. 1t will be sad day
for South Mississippi when this oc-
ours, but Notwithstanding this it
would seem to be inevitable.

It Is very easy to persuade people h
sign papers. Somebody once made the
remark that ait would not even be diff
flcult to get people to sign a petition
for the execution of the most popular
man In town. there being SO many
people who attach their signatures to
documents without reading the docu-
inents. This tendency OF people to
carelessly sign things was illustrated
In Massachusetts, during the recent
election. Though more than one
thousand names were signed to the
National party nomination papers,
scarcely ave hundred voted the ticket

A fashionable audience greeted
the Schubert Symphony club at
the opera house hast night, nearly
every seatsbsine occupied by gay,
sly costumed ladies and their es-
corts. The beauty, grace and
style of Vinita's society was there
and they enjoyed a pleasant eve

his second appearance Mr.. Dick

thing of the reason for bis ac-
knowledged reputation as an en-
tertainer.
The ladies quartette furnished
splendid music their voices blend
ing in the most agreeable and
pleasing tones. Their rendition
of "The Old OakeD Bucket and
4-Old kentucky Home" were high
ly appreciated.

difficult soprano solo and charmed
her hearers upon her recall with
'sThe Last Rose Of Summer."
Miss Esther Hogue sang a con-
tralto solo, "A Dream" in such
an artistic manner as to win for
her much praise. The lady has a
deep, rich voice highly cultivated.
The renditions of |. HI. Lidy on

Down With Anarchy.

The proletar!ate of Europe that come
to this country to better their condi-
tlonf have yet to distinguish between
the meaning OF license and liberty.
Coming on the heels OF the dastardly
assassination OF King Humbcrt tha
public meetings throughout the. country
OF anarchists that have expressed graf
iilcation over tho SUCCESS OF the vile as.
sassin are warnings to the authorities
to keep watchful eye on these degen-
crates. In striking contrast to the I'M
pudent mouthinGs of the anarchists In
Pittsburgh Paterson. New York ana
elsewhere. is the action taken by the
Italians OF this city, who formulated
apprcclative resolutions of King Hum
bert's worth and denounced IN vigorous
language the act of the cowardly as
Sassin. E-
These vermin who infest certain local
tiles have nothing In common with Jaw
and order. They are cowardly to III?
extreme. They pose. as martyrs to a
cause, which is no cause except the de.
light they take In shedding blood AMI
bringing sorrow into the world. They
accomplish nothing; their grievances
are Imaginary and their purposes are
underlined But the anarchists have
come to poor feeding ground IL they
think they can run Wild In the United
States. The Chicago tragedy should b.
remembered: also the coparccncr o.
those blood-thirsty wretches. Alleged.
who tried to find EXCUSES FOR th-Ir ac-
tion, and who is now preaching against
the supremacy Of the law and the
courts. Ell
The anarchist Is peculiarly ard dis
tlnct!vely against all government, and
as such he should be closely watched
in these times OF political cxci;eman, in
this! country. AT 4 meeting in New
York Tuesday night one 81 the Reds"
exclaimed; "Humbart is dead to-day.
Tomorrow it will be McKinley's turn.
Princes or President. 1t is all the SANE.
Both are tyrants."
That Is the argument Of the anarch-
lists. Anyone who rules is a tyrant.
There Is no abiding place in this land
for such people. They are worse than
the boxers Of China. Now Is the time
to scotch them. Their poor plea is that
they do not hate kings and rulers rs ir-
dlviduals. but they hate the power that
is invested In them. And this recalls Il
memorable assassinatiou-tha removal
OF Julius Caesar. Did the conspIratcrs
gain their point? Not at all, for the
eloquent cicaro's words have come
down TO us. The tyrant Is dead, but
tyranny still lives" Reforms cannot
be accomplished by blood-letting, but
they can through the peaceful ballot
and successive legislation. &
