men, who, in a few years will have in
their keeping the destinies of Their
beloved commonwealth. The good
roads train of the Illinois Central was
a magnificent conception. The con

Natchez, Vicksburg, Greenville and
Clarksdale have done great good. The
one to be held at Oxford, where the
students of the State University and

improved method of road building

held. The students of these two insti-
buttons returning home, living as they
do in every county in Mississippi, will
take with them, practical knowledge
backed by enthusiasm for better high
ways that must do great good all over
the state. Then comes the Grenada

THE American is not posing as a

The people of Vicksburg want the news
of Nicksburg and of Mississippi first,
and that of Hindoostan and Kankakee
is of secondary Importance. If John
Jones COW strangles on a turnip in
South Vicksburg the news is of more
heart to heart interest to the readers
