RIVER MAIL SERVICE

The recent high waters have served
to prove one thing and that is the value
of the river service. Had it not been
for such service the mails for all river
points that have heretofore been
reached by the star route service
would have suffered by delay, as the
railroads to these points in many
places have been washed up or covered
with water so as to render traffic i'm
possible, or had they reached the dis
tributing points by rail the swollen
streams and rotten roads would pre-
vent the carriers from delivering it.
Our mail boats have not missed trip
and delivered the mail to many points
and the thanks of the entire citizen
ship along the river is extended to
them for this valuable service, and
to Congress and Postnffice Department
for the restoration of this arm of SER
vice. The river mail boats have de-
livered mail to points during the high
water that could not have been reach
ed by any other means. This valuable
service should receive at the hands of
Congress and the Postofiice Depart
ment the recognition itjustly deserves.
and we trust it will come by an lncreas-
ed daily service.

THE HIGH WATER.

The recent heavy rains have caused
untold damages to the planter, rail
roads and business in South Missis-
sippi and Louisiana. 1t is estimated
that the loss will. figure up to nearly
five million dollars Today the water
covers the business part of the city of
New Orleans, La. The strong l.. a. n.
bridge over Pascagoula has lost three
spans and traffic between New Orleans
and points north is carried across by
means of a ferry. Enterprise, Miss,
is a total wreck, houses washed away.
goods ruined, farms overlooked, stock
drowned, causing want and misery to
stare at from every sone turn. The
dam above town of the Wanita Cotton
Mill enclosing 100 acres of water hav-
ing given away, gave force to the rush
of water against the city.
The farmers of Chunky river swamp
have lost everything.
This condition exists in several other
cities throughout the flooded districts.
Trains on all roads through this sec
ton have been unable to move for al
most a week, owing to the depth of
water and washed up tracks.
Meridian and jackson have suffered
greatly from the water. The latters
waterworks was almost submerged:
strictly cut off of the city's supply.
While in Lauderdale county alone it is
figured that it will take forty thous-
and to replace the bridges the water
has carried away. The full loss will
not be known until the water recedes,
and it is feared will show greater loss
of life and property than is now esti-
mated

A Washington special announces
that the Hon. John M. Aller
private John, of Tupelo) will en-
ter the lecture field upon the com
pletion of his present term in Con
gress.
If he does he Will make q sue
cess of it. He is not merely 6
''felow of infinite JEST" but 6
philosopher as well. His amusing
stories are like Lincoln s-the :
have always point which cannot
be mistaken. and he has mixed
with all sorts and conditions OF
men in the course of his pubic
life, so that he knows how tc
adapt his speech to the taste and
capacity of his audience.
If John Allen had not let his
sense of humor get away with him
early in his career he would be
today one of the most influential
men in Congress. His percep-
tions are keen, and his judgment
sound, and he has not made the
mistake OF speaking too often,
which evidences a freedom from
the egotism that affllcts the infer
Tor man in prominent position.
The Scimitar predicts brilliant
career for Private John as lee
turer.
The Scimitar is right, job n
Allen will, no doubt, Prove the
equal of Tennessee's great enter
tanner, ex-Gov. Bob Taylor.
Loved in the South, admired IN
the North and with a national
reputation for wit and humor, he
will draw crowded house where
ever he goes and reap at each
place rich harvest of gold and
silver. 1t will not be long before
the people will dub him with
General John instead of Private
John, as all rich men are called
whether they smelt powder Or not,
but General or Private, he will be
the plain, big-hearted, briny fun
making Mississippian, John Allen,
and we wish him success. Mem
