OUR STREET NUMBERS.

Being comparative stranger to the
affairs of the city and not knowing
really to whom the public is due for
originating the idea of naming and
numbering the streets and hou7e of
the city, the editor of The Progress
begs to say, not knowing upon whose
shoulders the weight" of the con :
pliment will fall that no piece OF
work was ever done for the city that
ought to be appreciated NOR, than
this.
The system is so perfect as not to
leave out the most Insignificant by
way or alley, rendering it possible for
child ten years of age TO find with
out trouble the place of business or
residence of any citizen of the place,
white or colored.

OUR BANK STATEMENTS.

To bear out every good thing that
The Progress has ever said of Hatties-
burg as healthy commercial center,
it is only necessary to refer to the
statements of our banks, as they ap-
pear from time to time-the individ-
nal deopsit lines especially-and it
will be seen that no other community
is so wonderfully blessed as ours is in
the important item of money.
There is nothing that so truthfully
tells the condition of neighborhood
than the bank statement, for there il
is given over the oath of the cashier,
generally about as reliable man as the
community can boast of.
See these statements as they are is
sued from time to time; read them
carefully and then have a stronger
faith in a greater future for your
town and community.

gracefully and his thanks to che near
ly 80, 900 true and loyal citizens who
stood by him through, as he expires
ses it, the most memorable campaign
in the history of Mississippi, are both
cordial ard profound.

we have always had and expressed OF
the judges ability in a literary
sense, and of his worth in the attrl-
butes that go to make up the true and
perfect gentleman.

That European powers, working Sc

the Panama canal treaty in the Colon

the Colombian charge d'affaires, says
the Washington correspondent of the

f. DR.. Herran said that there was no
doubt that the railways, believing that
the opening of an isthmian waterway
would materially affect their trade,
had been exerting a secret influence
against the convention in the senate.
and that the evidence of their subtle
work was indicated in the action Of
that body in rejecting the treaty de-
spite the pleas of the Colombian admin
istratiOn in its favor.
Furthermore, DR.. Herran said, he laid
the rejection as well at the doors OF
European diplomats, who, acting sub
TREMENDOUSLY under instructions from
home, had opposed the treaty because
