FREE MAIL DELIVERY.

On the first of June the free mail
delivery will be established in Hat
tiesburg which will meet with the ap-
prevail and highest appreciation of all
our citizens. 1t has been long time
coming since first advocated by the
Progress, but better late than never.
This will facilitate the delivery of
mail matter to very great extent and
will save much time and perhaps some
annoyance in getting the mail at the
office. The postmaster has been in
strumental in helping to have this
free delivery inaugurated, and while
the board of aldermen was little
slow at first in complying with the
requirement of the postal Jules and
regulations the houses were finally
numbered, the streets named and other
requirements complied with. A post
office inspector was sent here to look
into the matter and it is understood
that his report concerning Hattiesburg
was quite favorable and compliment
airy, and he at once recommended that
the free delivery be established.
Business men of the city will ap-

The railroads running in and out
of Hattiesburg seem to be doing all the
business they are capable of handling
and extra trains are run daily. The
business Of the Mobile, Jackson and
Kansas City road, though new road,
is picking up in business every day.
Every day the freight trains are get
ting longer, the travelling traffic more
extensive, and more rolling stock is
being put on. The Gulf and Ship
Island seems to have more than it can
do and the Northeastern is almost
overrun with business. At the same
time the Pearl and Leaf Rivers road
is doing fine business. OF course
all the roads have had trouble on ac-
count of the frequent heavy rains, but
they have managed to put their trains
through and deliver the freight and
passengers at their destination.

Capt. J. 2. Carter, we see in the
dispatches, has finally yielded to the
pressure of friends and announced
himself as candidate for the senate
from Perry county. Mississippi has
no finer man than Captain Carter,
and his presence on the floor of the
upper branch of the legislature should
the people of Perry decide to send
him, may be taken as meaning that
no restrictive laws or no measure that
may hamper our growth will be passed
without his strong opposition. -Meri-

Gatlin and others went to Laurel last
night to hear lecture from Judge
w. G. Ewing Of Chicago. 1t is said
the lecture was fine and was highly
enjoyed by all who heard him. The
Christian Science people of this city
have been so fortunate as to secure
him for a lecture for Friday night at
their hall and doubtless it will be a
rare treat to the people of Hatties-
burg.

the first big hill just beyond where
work will go on with rush. After
cutting through this hill all grading
work will be light for ten miles, as
the road will be built along the edge
of Strong river lowlands for that dis
lance. Then comes other high ground,
through which the cut is to be made
to enter the Silver creek lowlands.

nreiacte the change and SO will others,
for it is a step that means more than
what is seen ON the surface. and one
that should have been taken year
or two ago when we could have gotten
the free delivery then as well as now.
In this connection it may be stated
that several sections of the state are
getting the free rural delivery, but
thew are generally thickly settled COM
munities. Perry county may take up
this matter after awhile and finally
secure the service.

More new dwellings are going up
in the city every day and still the de-
mand for houses is nearly as great
az it ever was. Several now houses
have been completed recently, but as
a general thing they were rented be-
fore the last shingle was put ON.
People are moving into the city every
day from a distance and more are on
the road. There is not day that
there are not prospectors here and
many are locating with the intention
of going INTO business. The trouble
inst now is the scarcity OF business
houses Not one can be had, though
many hare been erected recently

The report comes from jackson that
the 2 per cent increase in freight
rates on lumber and other products,
which. it was announced, would be
mt in by the railroads in Mississippi
and Louisiana, will not go into effect.
at least not for the present. The an
nouncement was made at the office OF
the Illinois Central that the new rate
would not be put in effect. No reason
for this was given.
