q A clever calculator estimates that there are in use by telegraph, telephone and trolley companies in this country 15,o00 900 poles. The poles, most of which ere cedar of one sort or another, are long enough to reach three times around the world. It would require 250,000 flat cars to haul them by railway and the trains with their engines would cover 1,750 miles of track.

The latest estimate places the total number of apple trees of bearing age in the United States at something over 2oo,0O0OO0.. This is nearly three trees to every person. These trees yield more than 175OOO,OOO bushels. Not all of these apples are consumed at home, for in years of full crop more than S,O00,0O0 go abroad. Yet the apples kept at home are more than two bushels to every adult and child.

A French writer reports the result of m inquiry into the assertion from the German army corps at Metz. Last year they numbered over 1000 including a large proportion of Alsatians and Lor- trainers. The deserters complained chiefly of ill-usage and insufficient food. The deserters are all eager to enter the French army, but the military authori- ties are not very fond of these recruits, refuse to employ them in the frontier departments and pack them off to AL geria as often as possible.

The 10 per cent. advance in wages made by many of the railroads will not restore the wages of railroad officers other than general officers to the figures 5 of 1892 and 1893, and this is true as well of other classes of railroad employees. The wages of most of the various class es of employees will be higher, however, under the advance than they have ever been before.

The new year is now two weeks over
two months old. Editors always ex-
pect subscribers to square up along
about the first Of the year, especially
those who are delinquent, but as the
weeks pass by and the delinquents do
not show up it makes the editor love
his. s.advance subscribers the more and it
is then that he feels like requoting those
beautiful lines "How dear to my heart
is the steady subscriber, who pays in adj
vance at the birth Of the year; who lays
down his money and does it quite glad
ly, and cast round the Office halo OF
cheer He never says stop it, cannot
afford it, nor I'm getting more papers
now than ! can read,' but always says,
Send it, the family likes it; in fact, we
all think it real household need.
How welcome he is when he steps in the
sanctum; how he makes our hearts
throb, how he makes our hearts dance.
We outwardly thank him, we inwardly
bless him, the steady subscriber who
pays in advance"

ATHENA, MARCH 10 1909

An official of the Oregon penitentlary
recently scaled the walls in the night,
moved about at bis leasure and then
climbed out again. He selected as the
point OF transit the place where Tracy
and Merrill had gone in making their
escape. OF course he ran some risk,
for he could not be assured that the
guards we're of the same sort that were
killed by the desperadoes, but this is
the sort the guards proved to be.
Naturally they were dismissed from
their positions, as they deserved to have
been. So would the former guards had
not the outcome been sudden and final.
1t is strange that the ghastly episode
failed to convey lesson. The fact
leads to a suspicion that the Salem
prison is loosely and badly managed,
thinks the Tacoma Ledger. Oregon was
discredited by every detail Of the break
made by Tracy aid Merrill. Not only
was the escape without excuse, but the
dilatory pursuit was wholly ineffective,
and the rewards offered were withheld
from the people who finally earned
them. The burden Of the chase fell to
officials Of Washington and the courtesy
was never acknowledged. 1t was
thought, however, that the Salem in
stitution would be conducted as pris-
on rather than as place where convicta
might remain or which they might leave,
ae best suited their tastes.

GOVERNMENT CONSTRUCTION.

The ways of the new battleship Con-
necticut at the Brooklyn navy yard are
complete and an announcement made
that work on the actual laying Of the
keel will probably begin next week. In
naval circles the progress in the con-
struction of the Connecticut will be fol-
lowed with closest interest. In the first
place, the battlesbip is being built by
the United States at one of its own
yards, something that has not been done
since the days of the old wooden ships
OF war. 1t has been contended by many
high authorities that the building Of the
nations warships could be done better
and more cheaply by private contract
than by the nation itself. In order to
put the problem to fair test the gov
ernment decided to construct the Con-
necticut itself and at the same time let
the contract for her sister ship, the
Louisiana, to private contractor. The
results, it is expected, will determine
the question as to whether Uncle Sam
in future had better build his own war
ships.
There is another reason why the
building of the Connecticut attracts un-
usual attention. The ship will be the
largest ever built by the United States
navy. he is to carry the heaviest
armor and to moet powerful ordna nee
for vessel OF her class upon trial
displacement Of not more than 10000
tons, and is TO have the highest practical
speed and the greatest radius OF action.
The ship will, Of course, be built Of
steel, and her hull protected at the
water line by complete circle Of arma-
ment. She is designed as flagship and
everything upon her will be Of the most
modern character.

compelled by the strongest personal
reasons, arising from circumstances
which could not foresee and oyer
which have no control, to retire un-
conditionally, from the race for the
Office for Governor. Under present
conditions it is impossible for me to
continue actively in the canvass, and
unless | could do 50, it would be an
injustice to both my friends and my
self to remain longer in the contest.
The chief concern | feel in making
this step is for the friends who have
supported me SO Loyalty. | owe them

er repay, but which ! will always
recognize and remember. The cam
paign of Misrepresentation, calumny
and falsehood, backed by the corrupt
use Of money, that has been waged
against me with SO much bitterness,
has only made them the more jealous
in my support. Representing as they
do, the best thought, aspirations and
patriotism of the democracy Of Mis-
sissippi and Of our christian civiliza-
ton uninfuenced as they are by fac
tional politics, personal preferment
or petty ambition, / prize their conf
dence more highly than the Office of
Governor, and so long as | retain 1t
and have the consciousness that my
candidacy has stood for truth and the
best interests Of the state, can well
afford to despise the enemies | have
made. If in the canvass | have in
any way contributed TO a proper So
luton Of public questions which are
of such vital Importance at this time,
| will be more than gratified. Ihave
the greatest confidence that the good
judgement and patriotism Of the par
ty will secure a result worthy Of this
great commonwealth. A. F. Fox.
