good deal of anxiety as to the situation
IL the Philippines. They have found it
Villaost impossible to secure any infoi
atiQn concerning The actual state of
affairs in the archipelago. The9executive
branch OF the government, Tor some I'M

knowledge of the details Of otlr admin

some matters of the gravest Importance
in our Far eastern possessions
For salice, the charge was made
last week upon the floor Of the senate by
Mr.. Teller that the Taft commission
had promulgated a law which con-
sdeinned to two years Imprisonment any
Filipino who should refuse To serve III
Office to which he had been appointed

this appears absurd. II is past belief
that the Taft commission or any body
of American administrators would adopt
such drastic scheme and thus justify

The directors have recognized the
great Importance of the Bisbee road
now building, and are taking active
measures to have this road built to 81
Paso, having practically offered the
projectors $4,000 bonus to build to
this city. That this road will be of
immense advantage if built to this
city is undoubted. 1t will directly
connect Ell Paso with the great pro-
ductive copper camps of this section.
| and we must not let this splendid
opportunity pass by. The people of
Ell Paso should be a unit and work to-
gether. and leave nothing undone to
bring this road to our city
A large amount of literature, setting
forth the advantages of Ell Paso, has
been distributed, and an extensive cor
respondence carefully attended to Gy
our efficient secretary, Mr.. Russell, to
whom a large share of the credit for
the success of the chamber is due.
A matter of Importance for which
the FL Paso chamber of commerce
takes full credit has been the move
ment to form a state commercial Or
ganization, with a view to having all
the commercial bodies of the state act
together in matters of mutual intar
es. The Ell Paso chamber of COM
merce, after an extensive correspond
ence with the other commercial bodies
of the state. has issued a call for Il
meeting at Austin on January 25. All
the commercial bodies of the state
have been interested and we have ev
cry reason to belive that much good
will result therefrom to Ell PaSo and
the entire state.
The present membership of the
chamber is little over 200 and the
monthly income about $3.50, while tile
about 5000. There is practically no
cash in the treasury. and inasmuch as
the income and the fixed monthly ex-
penses of the chamber are near,y
equal it will be seen that the useful
ness of the chamber will be seriously
impaired unless more income is OBJ
tanned. The membership of the cham
Der should be largely increased. There
are many desirable persons in the
city who would become members if
it's advantages were properly set be-
fore them. The chamber needs a few
volunteers to solicit membership, and
feel satisfied that with proper eff
fort the membership can be largely
increased.
The White Oaks and Sierra Madre
roads and the Ell Paso Smelling Works
have contributed literally and are en-
titled to our lasting gratitude. All the
other railroads have coOperated with
the chamber by furnishing transporta-
ton for our representatives and for
material for our mineral exhibit.
In conclusion, 1 urge the people of
Ell Paso to literally support the in
stitution which works for the interest
of each and every one, and which has
already accomplished much good and
will accomplish much more in the fu-
ture. No man who has the interest of
the city at heart can afford to refuse
support to such an organization as
this, and if given proper support by
our people, and if the members them
selves will take proper interest and be
willing to give a few hours of their
time for the public good, great results
highly beneficial to our city will fol-
low, and it will become a power for
good in the community.
(Signed) S. j. Prudential,
President.

HUNTING IN OKEFEAOKEE.

Atlanta correspondence Of The Macon Telegraph
Judge Il. e. Mcdonald. of Traders HILL ex-
ordinary OF Charlton County, is here looking
after pension claims for several Confederate
veterans Of his county Speaking OF the condi-
tion and the future Of the Okefenokee swamp
Mr.. Mcdonald said: The property is still in the
hands Of the Hon. Pope Barrow, Of Savannah
who is the trustee Of the estate of the late Gen
cral Henry X. Jackson. but / understand that
he is now on a trade for the swamp with a com
pany Of Michigan capitalists, who If the sale is
made, Will develop the property The swamp
contains over three hundred thousand acres
Much of the swamp is covered with water, but
in it number Of elevated tracts of land
heavily wooded with pine timber. few fam
lilies live in the swamp and never come out of it.
They grow good crops on the elevated lands
and get all the meat that they want by hunting
and fishing. All kinds of game to be found
in abundance. and in days shoot man can
find plenty of bear, deer, turkeys or anything
else, from quail 20 wild geese. and from rabbits
TO bear. People go hunting in the swamp all
the time. but the supply does not 10 di-
mnsh in the least under the steady aim Of the
hunter. There seems to be abundance OF
every character of game. and good sport is al
ways to be had with either the rifle or the shot
gun"
How do the hunters get about in the swamp"
asked.
Usually in boats" said Mr Mcdonald but
sometimes they just wade in and walk for miles
through the swamp until the islands are reached
Some OF these q mile wide to eight or ten
miles long. There is no danger in any one get
ting sick by going into the swamp. There is
another danger, however. to be guarded against
and that is that if man does not take a guide
with him he is very apt to get lost. There is
such q sameness in every portion of the Okefe
mckee that IL is an easy matter for man TO
lose his bearings in going from one point to
another. 1 think the people who cut the canal
through the swamp made a mistake, drain
ing the swamp Will increase the expense OF get
