NO ONE MAN OWNS IT.

A gentleman said this morning that
there was no concentration of capital
in Hattiesburg. He meant by this
that no one man wned the town and
no one man could buy it, but that ii
was owned by its citizens and every
Building new being erected was the
direct outlay of home capital.
Therefore no one will have to kneel
at the shrine of any man and ask the
consent of that man whether or not he
can do business without his permit as
it is the case in some other towns OF
the state the Progress could mention.
This is a happy state of affairs and
assures the. future prosperity of Hat
tiesburg with more certainty than
anything else. Any man can come
here and do any kind of Legitimate
business and he does not have to ask
permission of some one who owns the
town and much of the surrounding
country. And people who are reali-
zing this important fact are not hest
tating to come and the city is being
filled with some of the most substan-
tial business men of the country.

potatoes are of the fall growth and are
very fine What Mr.. Mccarthy does
not know about raising vegetables

others could go and do likewise and
find ready market in this city at any

No Complaint Against Attaches.

WASHINGTON, Jan. A-Ofieial denial
is entered at both the State and Navy De-
partments of the report that complaint has
been made to the British government
against the conduct of its naval attaches
here in acquiring official information. 1t
was the custom for the naval attaches to
enjoy a rather free intercourse with the
naval bureaus but some time ago a regu-
lation was revived requiring them to sub
init any requests for information through
the Navigation Bureau ann the Bureau of
Naval Intelligence. At the same time the
secretary of the navy took occasion to en-
join more caution on the bureau officers
in dealing with foreign officials, that
the latter naturally found their freedom
of intercourse considerably curtailed But
it is stated positively that no one attache
was singled out for complaints and there
has been no trouble on this score for
months past

IL: 35 o'clock on the night of the murder

Strother appeared to be perfectly calm

had always been his custom

Strother says he discovered about u o'clock
that the assault had been made.
