THE NECESSITY FOR WA
TER-WORKS.


The health, comfort and conve-
nience of this town has called
loudly for the establishment of a
system of Water-works, and 1t
now seems that these influences
have so impressed themselves on
our denizens that its Inaugural
ton is among the fondIy hoped
for improvements in the near fu-
ture. But if the above does not
impress itself with sufficient force
to accomplish the desired end, a
new question now presents itself
that must carry weight and in the
long run bear fruit. We have
sufficient money subscribed for
the erection of an oil mill in our
town, and there seems to be little
doubt that the mill will be erect
ed, but there are matters that
must receive consideration as to
the operation of the mill, and as
Mr.. Adams, the President of the
Bank of Woodville, remarked to
US: "The question of a water sup
ply is the most vital matter to be
considered, and l believe this is
the only obstruction that now
stands in the way of the erection
of the oil mill" The force of
this remark is made clear when
we are told that an oil mill of av-
erage capacity will require about
four hundred gallons of water per
hour, and this flow must be fur
nished both night and day. hence
we see the significance of the re-
mark.
NOW we do not propose to erect
a system of water works for the
benefit of the oil mill, but the two
can be operated in conjunction,
with benefit to both enterprises.
An artesian we'll would furnish
more than a sufficient quantity of
water to furnish the town and OPP
crate the oil mill plant, and the
mill would simply be a subscriber
and help defray the expense of
the water works plant, hence re-
ducing the cost of water to the
town. 1t can readily be seen that
the two plants can be operated
advantageously by running the
two in conjunction. Besides this
no town can prosper to any great
extent without watar-wOrks, and
if we expect to build up the town
water-works must be our first
move. Delays are dangerous, so
let's get down to work and have
the promised enterprises ere the
summer changes to fall.

HOW LONG, OH KING, HOW
LONG

In the mad whirl Of The political
maelstrom that now hovers over
everything in the State and whose
influence dominates everything in
the administration of statecraft, il
is a relief to turn to the memory OF
John M. Stone, revived by the an
niversary of his death and the sad
contrast between the administra-
ion of affairs now and formerly,
and even think of his life as the
governor of this great state. Gov
ernor Stone was in its real sense a
great man because he was an hon
est man, and his administration of
public affairs was signally free of
mistakes of the head and absolutely
free of errors of the heart. As a
friend there was none more loyal
and true, as governor he knew
neither friends nor foe but only the
good of his people and his state.
He magni6ed his great Office to
something more than a mere dis
penser of state patronage for politi-
cal ends and inspired and guided in
his consideration of public affairs
by a real and genuine concern for
the welfare of his people and his
state rather than to forward his
own ambition, to reward friends or
punish foes, his administration was
signally free of scandals. Dear
old Mississippi has been made to
mourn from the reverse of this
policy and from her remotest
corners, from the home fresides
and all her important interest
arises the cry for another John M.
Stone. Biloxi Review.

Some one tells the following good
one: A man attended a grand ball
with his wife and had a great time.
While dancing quadrllIe he noticed
his pants were ripping, and hurreldly
retired to a dressing room with his
wife, who procured a needle and
thread and began sewing up the rip.
While the man was there without
any pants on, he heard the rustic of
skirts, and it occurred to him that he
had taken refuge in the ladies dress
ing room. He appealed to his wife
and she showed him to a door which
opened, as she thought, into a closet.
Opening the door she quickly showed
him through and locked it. Then the
man began pounding the door. "Ma-
ry," he screamed, "I'm in the ball
room" The door, instead of opening
into closet, opened into the ball
room.
