Mississippi State News


There has been considerable activ-
ity in railroad matters during the
past week. The promoters of the
Tombigbee River Railroad Com
pany have submitted a proposition
to the citizens of Aberdeen to build
the road via that place providing
the town will subscribe $4,000 to
the capital stock. This is the line
which was chartered to be built from
Linden, Ala, up the Tombigbee val
ley to Helena, Ark, and from Lin
den southwark to Pensacola, max
ing a gateway from the terminus Of
the Gould system at Helena to the
deep water at Pensacola. Aberdeen
is out of a direct line between Co.
lumbus and Helena, and the pro-
moters naturally desire some extra
inducement to build out Of a direct
route.
The citizens of Columbus have
also been asked by representatives Of
the road to subscribe $4,000 to the
capital stock, and a committee Of
the local business men has been APP
pointed to look after the matter 1t
is understood that other towns along
the route will also be asked to make
capital stock subscriptions. The
National Guarantee Company, Of
Chicago, is looking after the fnan-
cial details for the system.
Work has been resumed on the
BcIzoni branch Of the Yazoo u Mis-
sissippi Valley road from Belzonl,
which was interrupted by the over
flow in the delta, and the company
expects to have the line completed
in time to handle the seasons cotton
crop. This road will be quite an
addition to the already splendid ia
cilities Of that system in the delta,
The branch line of the Illinois
Central to Monticello is showing
good progress, as is also the new
branch of the Gulf and Ship Island
from Mendenhall to Columbia.
None of the new roads recently in
corporated have made any move

Planting operations in Bolivar
county are several weeks behind the
average, but there is yet a fair
chance for a good crop, as the delta
has never yet experienced a total
failure, The acreage in cotton all
over the county is about the same
as last year. On some Of the larger
plantations, however, some Of the
land will 60 uncultiyated, as the
high water delayed operations to
some extent, but this will be offset
by the new land which will be
brought under the plow for the first
time.
On account of the delay some Of
the planters have planted a quick
groth variety Of cotton, while others
have preferred to use the same kind
as they did last season.
The labor question continues to
be "a thorn in the flesh" of delta
planters, and while most of the
planters will be able to get through
with their present amount of labor,
still the supply is totally inadequate
for the demand, and there is hardly
a large planter in the county that
could not use very protitabIy num-
Der Of additional families.

The States of the lower Missouri
valley and portions Of the Mississippi
valley have suffered much from heavy
rains, especially in Iowa the eastern
portions Of Kansas and Nebraska and
Western Missouri. Drouth continues
in New England, the northern portion
of the Middle Atlantic States and
in Florida, and rains are needed in
portions Of the Central Gulf States
and in Southern Texas The latter
part Of the week was unseasonably
cold in the lower Missouri valley and
West Gulf districts. Very favorable
temperatures prevailed in the Ohio
valley and South Atlantic and East
Gulf States.
In the eastern portion Of Kansas
and Nebraska and in Iowa corn fields
have been badly washed out
Winter wheat on lowlands in the
eastern portions of Kansas and Ne
braska and Northwestern Missouri has
sustained injury from floods, but on
the whole the crop has made satisfac
tory advancement Harvesting is
general in Texas and has begun in
Arkansas and North Carolina.
Oats have done we'll Further i'm.
proyemelt in the condition of cotton
is generally indicated, but the crop,
as a rule, is from two to three weeks
late Better stands are reported from
the Carolinas, Tennessee, Alabama
and portions Of Mississippi, Louisiana
and Texas. In Arkansas, Oklahoma
and Missouri the crop is grassy, Cut
worms are causing damage in Celtral
and Southern Texas and boil weeyils
are reported this week from number
of additional counties in that State
The week has been very favorable
for transplanting tobacco, and this
work has made rapid progress in the
Ohio valley and Middle Atlantic
States, where the bulk of the crop
will be set during the present plant
ing season. The prospects for apples
are promising in many of the impor.
tant apple States.

Mississippi is threatened with an
other postotiice controversy. A ne
gro has been appointed postmaster
at GOA, in Copiah county, and the
patrons of the Office are ordering
their mail sent to Barlow Office, de-
claring that they will not patronize
the GOA office while the negro is
in charge. GOA is located in beat
No. 3 of Copiah county, a neigh
borhood where the citizens have a
reputation for occasionally taking
matters into their own hands, and
if the negro attempts to serve he is
likely to meet with a warm reeep-
ton. 1t is likely that the office will
be closed, as none of the citizens
will patronize the place.
